Protect Our Clan Leader-Chapter 715 91: Get in Position! Taishi Ankang is Ready to Lie Down_3

"Has Taishi Ankang gone mad? What good does this do for him?"

"Auntie Jiugugu, what's the use of talking about this now? You should think quickly about how to deal with the investigation from the Inspectorate." Cao Bangning was not only pale, but he also couldn't help blaming Cao Youqing in his heart.

Auntie Jiugugu had previously assured him, dealing with the Wang Clan was as straightforward as catching prey. She said first they would cut off one arm of the Qian Family, then deal with them slowly.

Who would have thought, this wasn't about cutting off someone's arm, it was clearly having their own arm cut off by others!

"Auntie Jiugugu, why not ask the person behind you to quell the investigation from the Inspectorate." The family head, Cao Bangning, said helplessly, "Otherwise, our Cao Family is in deep trouble."

"He went to the Frost Moon Immortal Dynasty." Cao Youqing's eyelids twitched, "What's more, the Inspectorate is one of the three independent agencies that supervise illegal activities of all government offices and prominent families around the world. Even the Commandery Princes and Princes have no right to interfere!

Even if he were here, he would not be able to change the course of the Inspectorate's actions. Bangning, you should think of a way to clean up this mess."

Cao Bangning was at a loss for words.

His younger brother, Cao Bangyan, was unreliable, as was his heaven-gifted Auntie Jiugugu. As the head of the Cao Family... this was too hard.

...

At the same time.

Qing'an Prefecture, the Zuoqiu family's main residence.

The two old ancestors of the Zuoqiu family, both from the Purple Abode, were sitting with Xiaoyue, discussing the next course of action.

Suddenly,

A maid with delicate features walked over holding a tray, and respectfully presented something from it to Xiaoyue. "Auntie Xiaoyue, it's news from the Immortal Yüqing."

Xiaoyue looked it over and immediately furrowed her brows.

Seeing this, Zuoqiu Deye, the first elder of the Zuoqiu family, frowned, too. "What happened?"

"It's the Cao Family." Xiaoyue sighed and, not bothering to explain, directly handed over the paper in her hand.

Zuoqiu Deye took a look and became furious. "This useless Cao Family! They can't deal with a 7th-rank aristocratic family? They've been counterattacked and now it's a complete mess. Are these people pigs? Immortal Xiaoyue, is this the ally that Master Ce specified?"

It wasn't just Zuoqiu Deye who was out of temper; anyone would have been frustrated if their ally had been brought down to the ground shortly after a fight commenced.

"Ahem~"

Xiaoyue coughed awkwardly, "Maybe Youqing underestimated the situation."

"Underestimated?" Zuoqiu Deye scoffed, "Parvenus! They have power, but no substance. Such allies, we'd better off without them."

"You're right, senior Deye," said Xiaoyue hurriedly, "but it's just a minor setback. What our Lord promised you is already prepared, it should be in transit now."

Zuoqiu Deye's face eased somewhat, and there was a hint of approval in his eyes for Xiaoyue. "At least there's someone reliable. In that case, let's not concern ourselves with the Cao Family. Our Zuoqiu Family will handle both the Longzuo Qian Family and the Changning Wang Clan."

For a moment, the old Zuoqiu Deye, ever on the verge of becoming senile, had a glint of excitement in his eyes. If this plan worked, the overall strength of the Zuoqiu family would take another leap forward, they might even have the opportunity to rise to third-class aristocratic families.

Third-class aristocratic families!

The Zuoqiu family had been a fourth-rank prominent family for far too long, and he, Zuoqiu Deye, was becoming impatient.
