"That's great. However, I really didn't expect that Iron Lady to do such a thing.”
Seeing Zhangsun Wugou agree, Gao Xing sighed with emotion.
As they were older, they treated Fearless, Cao Feng and the rest as younger brothers.
He naturally approved of this marriage. After all, Wugou's thoughts were somewhat guessed.
"Since you know the reason, why aren't you hurrying to settle it?”
Gao Shilian smiled.
"Father is right. I'll go and distribute the invitations immediately.”
Executive Gao collected his thoughts and hurriedly replied.
The Gao family was also one of the aristocratic families. Since Wugou wanted to get engaged, they naturally had to be in a hurry and personally take care of this engagement.
Their movements weren't much different from the Li family's.
"I'll go set up as well."
After Gao Xing left, Zhangsun Wuji took the initiative to speak.
Although the banquet was mainly held at the Cao Residence, the Gao Residence needed to be decorated.
In the future, when they got married, they could add some decorations on top of the foundation.
The Gao Residence quickly made preparations, and everything began to operate in an orderly manner.
"I originally thought that I was not fated to meet brother Cao Feng. I did not expect…"
Zhangsun Wugou looked at the busy people in the Gao Manor. For a moment, he was filled with anticipation and nervousness.
As for Cao Feng, by the time he returned to the Cao Residence, the sky had already darkened.
The last ray of the setting sun disappeared from the roof of the Cao Mansion.
The moon was on the branches, and everything was silent.
Not long after Cao Feng arrived, several figures quietly approached the Cao Mansion. They were dressed in night clothes and blended in with the night.
If one did not observe carefully, it would be difficult to find their tracks.
This group of people was the Li family guards sent by Li Shi Min and the others, led by Duan Zhi Xuan.
"General Duan, we've arrived at the Cao Mansion."
A man in black said.
"Alright, let's do it. We'll properly take care of that arrogant Cao Feng.”
Duan Zhixuan ordered coldly.
"Hualala…"
A group of people climbed over the walls of the Cao Residence.
"Ta Ta…"
They climbed over the wall and landed on the ground to stabilize themselves.
When they raised their heads, they were all shocked. In front of them, Cao Feng crossed his arms and looked at them with interest.
Behind him stood the 18 Flying Tiger Cavalrymen who had dismounted from their horses, as well as the murderous Li Cunxiao.
These people might not have caused any big commotion, but in Li Cunxiao's ears, their movements were not small.
Therefore, he instantly knew that someone had barged into the Cao Residence.
"Masked?"
Seeing this, Cao Feng narrowed his eyes.
"Do it."
Since he had been discovered, Duan Zhi Xuan did not waste any time.
"Kill them!"
The Li family's private soldiers, numbering in the hundreds, all rushed up.
"Cunxiao, capture the masked leader alive. I want to see who is the one who visited the Cao residence in the middle of the night.”
Cao Feng ordered in a deep voice. In fact, he already had a guess in his heart.
What had happened during the day, and someone had come to visit in the middle of the night. It was already very clear who the person was.
However, he still needed to confirm it.
"Yes."
" Yes!" Li Cunxiao responded. He pulled out the Bi Yan Zhua and charged towards Duan Zhixuan.
At the same time, the 18 Flying Tiger Cavalrymen charged forward. The entire Cao Residence was instantly plunged into a chaotic battle, and the sounds of killing could be heard continuously.
Amidst the clash of the blades, miserable cries sounded continuously.
The Flying Tiger Cavalry were extremely brave in battle. Their attacks were ruthless and decisive. They were soldiers who truly fought on the battlefield.
Then, how could this group of Li family's private soldiers be compared to them?
"Ah…"
In just a few moments, the hundreds of Li family guards had turned into cold corpses on the ground, and their blood dyed the ground red.
"This is bad."
Seeing this scene, Duan Zhixuan was so scared that his face turned pale. He immediately wanted to jump over the wall and escape from Cao Manor.
Li Cunxiao jumped up and stretched out his big hand, pulling the other party back almost instantly and lifting his mask.
"So it's you."
His true face was revealed before his eyes. Cao Feng searched through his memories for this face and soon, he knew the identity of this person in front of him.
"The Li family head just left and immediately sent someone to visit in the middle of the night.”
Cao Feng laughed coldly.
"You know that I'm from the Li family, yet you still don't want to let go?”
Duan Zhixuan pretended to be unyielding.
Cao Feng looked at him playfully. The latter saw a cold killing intent in his eyes.
"Noisy!"
Seeing the lord's gaze, Li Cunxiao drew his sword.
"Puchi…"
He raised his hand and chopped off Duan Zhixuan's head.
"Place this person's head in a wooden box and give it to the Li family after the engagement banquet.”
Cao Feng said coldly without hesitation.
"Yes."
Li Cunxiao responded. Then, he got someone to bring a wooden box and put the head inside.
Before Duan Zhixuan died, he didn't expect that he was only here to teach Cao Feng a lesson. He didn't expect that this would become his death date.
"Li Yuan, you broke off relations in the day just to vent your anger, but tonight's matter has completely formed a grudge between our families.”
Cao Feng raised his head and looked up at the full moon.
As the saying goes, one must return the favor. Since the Li family had sent someone to give gifts, he would return the favor with this person's head.
"Clean it up."
Cao Feng gathered his thoughts and ordered.
"Yes."
Everyone began to move. They moved the corpses away and finally cleaned up the bloodstains.
When dawn came, everything returned to normal, as if nothing had happened yesterday.
"Creak…"
A day had passed since the Cao Mansion's main door was opened. Tomorrow was the engagement banquet, so someone would probably come today.
"Ta Ta…"
As expected, footsteps sounded. Then, a man who looked capable walked over.
Although this person's clothes were not luxurious, his overall temperament was not ordinary.
"Brother Cao Feng?"
As soon as he entered the door, he shouted.
Hearing the commotion, Cao Feng quickly walked out. When he saw this person, he pondered for a moment and knew the identity of the person.
He was the nephew of Han Qinhu, the founding general of the Great Sui Dynasty, Li Jing.
Li Jing's aristocratic family and the Cao family were also old friends. Moreover, their relationship was extraordinary.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have arrived early.
"Brother Li."
Cao Feng greeted warmly.
"I didn't expect Brother Li to come earlier than me.”
Just as he welcomed Li Jing into the hall, another voice sounded.
A scholar dressed in green walked in. This person was not old, and his eyes were filled with wisdom.
Cao Feng sized him up and used the memories in his mind to capture this person's identity.
This person was Fang Xuanling, and his family had been helped by the Cao family in the past.
Without the help of the Cao Family, Fang Xuanling's aristocratic family would not be considered an aristocratic family.
Because of this, the two families were also family friends and had a good relationship.
"Xuan Ling."
Cao Feng and Li Jing greeted him together.
Although it was rare to see them, the three of them could be considered old friends because of their families.
Therefore, there was definitely no restraint when they met.
