Villainous Cao Cao: Inheriting Everything from the Chosen One

247: Completely inheriting Luo QingchengUpon hearing this, the bodies of the three women trembled almost imperceptibly.

The long night stretched on, and there was no desire for sleep.

The new rules belonging to Cao Bu had only just begun.

And Luo Qingcheng’s once high and mighty heart had quietly cracked open a seam that very night.

Something was changing irreversibly.

【 Ding! Congratulations to the Host, you have fully inherited Luo Qingcheng. Inheritance level increased by 3%. You have gained three lottery chances! 】

...

The next day.

Gu Clan Council Hall.

Cao Bu sat in the position of the Gu Clan Clan Chief.

That’s right, not the vice seat, but the main seat.

To his left, the three women, Luo Qingcheng, Leng Yue, and Su Li, took their seats in order.

The Gu Family kept the life tablets of Gu Yun and Gu Feng.

News of the two brothers falling one after another had already spread throughout the entire clan.

However, no one knew exactly why the two had died.

Cao Bu watched the eight Elders filing in from outside the hall, his eyes flickering slightly.

”System, five lottery draws!”

The Destruction God Body Origin can be given to Luo Qingcheng.

Cao Bu quickly scanned the prize descriptions, already having a plan in mind.

He looked at the eight Elders who had just taken their seats, his eyes deep and unfathomable.

The eight Elders sat down in order, and the atmosphere in the Council Hall was heavy.

The Grand Elder sat in the first seat on the right, white-haired and with lowered eyelids, like an old monk in meditation.

The Second Elder sat below him, his gaze sharp, occasionally sweeping over Cao Bu in the main seat and the three women opposite, his eyes hiding suspicion and unease.

The remaining six Elders had different expressions; some were grave, some were scrutinizing, and some were silent.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Luo Qingcheng spoke first: ”Summoning everyone today, the primary matter is to decide on the new Clan Chief of our Gu Clan.”

”Vice Clan Leader Cao Bu has outstanding ability and remarkable achievements.”

”After discussing with my second and third sisters, we have unanimously decided that the ’Vice’ title should be removed, and he shall officially succeed to the position of Clan Chief to stabilize the hearts of the people and rectify the status of our clan.”

As her voice fell, the air in the hall stagnated.

Although they had been mentally prepared, hearing it announced personally by Luo Qingcheng carried a different weight.

The Second Elder’s eyelids twitched violently, and finally, unable to hold back, he said in a deep voice: ”First Mistress, this old man has something unclear, I ask that you clarify!”

Luo Qingcheng turned her gaze to him and said indifferently: ”Speak.”

The Second Elder took a breath and spoke faster: ”First Mistress, not long ago you personally took Clan Chief Gu Feng to find Cao Bu.”

”Why is it that now, the former Clan Chief Gu Yun’s life tablet has shattered, and the current Clan Chief Gu Feng has also fallen shortly after, yet Cao Bu has returned unscathed?”

”Furthermore, Clan Chief Gu Feng previously suspected that Cao Bu had intentions to subvert the Gu Clan.”

”Now that two consecutive Clan Chiefs have died one after another, this matter is too coincidental.”

”I ask the First Mistress to give us an explanation, an explanation for the entire Gu Clan, and even more so, an explanation for the old Clan Chief!”

Clearly, this series of events had already led them to discover something amiss.

They even faintly suspected in their hearts that the fall of the two Clan Chiefs had something to do with the three Mistresses.

This sounded absurd, but one had to ask, who had the ability to break the protective Restrictions that Gu Qingtian had left on his two sons?

In the entire Spirit Realm, besides the few Heavenly Emperors who might be capable, only these three women before them could do it.

Although they were happy to see Gu Yun and Gu Feng fall, this matter was filled with strangeness everywhere, making them very uneasy these past few days, which was why they asked.

”Presumptuous!” A cold light flashed in Luo Qingcheng’s eyes, and a majestic Aura descended with a bang, precisely pressing down on the Second Elder.

Caught off guard, the Second Elder slid from his chair, prostrating on the ground, his forehead pressed tightly against the cold floor tiles, his bones creaking, unable to even lift his head.

”Are you questioning this Palace Mistress?” Luo Qingcheng’s voice was bone-chillingly cold.

The Second Elder breathed with difficulty, gritting his teeth: ”This old man dares not! It is just that as an Elder, I have doubts in my heart that I must ask!”

Although he was suppressed, his tone remained stubborn, and at the same time, he desperately used his eyes to seek help from the other Elders.

The Third Elder, Fourth Elder, and others showed expressions of struggle on their faces.

The Grand Elder still lowered his eyes, looking as if he were invisible.

Finally, the Third Elder stood up abruptly, followed by the Fourth Elder, Fifth Elder... the remaining six Elders all stood up together, bowed to Luo Qingcheng, and said in unison: ”We ask the First Mistress to clarify! To ease the hearts of the clansmen!”

The situation instantly became tense to the extreme!

The beautiful faces of the three women, Luo Qingcheng, Leng Yue, and Su Li, were icy cold, and an invisible Aura poured down, pressing the Elders until their faces turned pale, almost unable to breathe.

”Ahem.”

Just at this moment of confrontation, a light cough sounded.

The sound was not loud, but it was exceptionally clear, instantly attracting everyone’s attention.

It was Cao Bu.

He was seen sitting steadily in the Clan Chief’s seat, his expression calm, and even a faint, almost imperceptible smile hung on the corners of his mouth, as if everything before him was under his control.

Luo Qingcheng looked at him, met his calm gaze, and felt slightly relieved in her heart.

At the same time, the Aura that swept across the hall retracted slightly, but still pinned the Second Elder firmly to the ground, unable to move.

”Since you want to know, then this Palace Mistress will tell you; Yun’er and Feng’er fell victim to the vicious hands of the Yin Yang Sect!”

”Yin Yang Sect!” The several Elders exclaimed simultaneously.

”That’s right!” Luo Qingcheng’s tone was extremely sorrowful, mixed with monstrous rage: ”The Blood Emperor and the Desire Emperor conspired together, lured the three of us sisters away, and seized the opportunity to secretly harm Yun’er and Feng’er. When all is said and done, this matter was our oversight.”

The several Elders looked at each other, half-believing and half-doubting.

The Gu Clan and the Yin Yang Sect were enemies; this was a well-known fact in the Spirit Realm.

If it really was them who made the move, it would make sense.

Looking at the First Mistress’s sorrowful and indignant expression, it didn’t seem like a pretense.

But why did Clan Chief Gu Feng accuse Cao Bu back then? This was something they couldn’t help but be suspicious about.

”Elders.” Leng Yue spoke at the right moment, her voice clear and cold: ”Everything Eldest Sister said is true, and both I and Third Sister can testify.”

”Moreover, if it weren’t for Cao Bu arriving in time, I fear even Yun Shang and the others would have fallen as well.”

”Therefore, Cao Bu has a great merit in saving and protecting our Gu Clan!”

Su Li also had red-rimmed eyes and choked with sobs: ”That child Feng’er died so miserably, those Devil Heads are simply worse than pigs and dogs!”

”In order to save Yun Shang and the others, Cao Bu almost lost his own life.”

”Fortunately, he was blessed with great Luck and held on until we arrived.”

She was sobbing uncontrollably, tears streaming down her face, acting with genuine emotion.

The three Mistresses were consistent in their accounts, their sorrow and indignation overflowing from their words.

Added to the fact that the Yin Yang Sect was a target capable of attracting all hatred, the doubts in the hearts of the several Elders were mostly dispelled, and their Aura also weakened.

However, did Cao Bu really have such strength to hold on until the three Mistresses could come to rescue him?

For a moment, the several Grand Elders simultaneously locked their gazes onto Cao Bu.

If that were really the case, wouldn’t Cao Bu’s strength be the number one person under the Great Emperor?

For them, this was not good news.
