Cao Guan nodded.

He had always lived in seclusion, but now he was suddenly poisoned, obviously it was not easy.

The most important thing is that tomorrow is the Cao family's annual meeting.

As a clan leader, once he is critically ill, the impact will be huge.

By then, the entire Cao family will inevitably fall into civil strife.

At this point in time, the pinch is too sensitive.

"Sister Shuang, who do you think was the person who poisoned me?" Cao Guan suddenly asked.

"Brother Guan, apart from the Venerable Black Witch, I can't think of anyone who is proficient in the art of witchcraft and has a grudge against our Cao family." Chen Shuang looked solemn.

The Venerable Black Witch is a thorn in the Cao family.

Mysterious and powerful.

In order to eradicate the disaster, the Cao family invested countless manpower and material resources.

However, for many years, nothing worked.

And every year, several backbones of the Cao family die inexplicably.

There is the shadow of the black witch venerable behind him.

It can be said that the Venerable Black Witch made the entire Cao family panic and exhausted physically and mentally.

"Yeah...it can only be him."

Cao Guan sighed: "It's a pity that we are in the light and the enemy is in the dark, so we can only be beaten passively. This is why I insist on letting Concubine Xuan marry into the Shangguan family."

"I know."

Chen Shuang took a deep breath: "Only when Concubine Xuan marries Shangguan Hong can we borrow the power of the Shangguan family to deal with the Black Witch Lord. Otherwise, if this continues, the entire family will be destroyed by him."

"It's a pity that Concubine Xuan became a victim of the family. I feel ashamed of her." Cao Guan looked remorseful.

As a father, why doesn't he want his daughter to be happy?

However, there are some things that are beyond our control.

"Concubine Xuan is a sensible child, she will definitely understand your hard work." Chen Shuang comforted.

"I hope so."

Cao Guan sighed, then seemed to think of something, and suddenly changed the subject: "What do you think of Lu Chen, a young man?"

"He is a genius who is both skilled in medicine and martial arts. Looking at the young generation in the entire provincial capital, he can be regarded as the best. Unfortunately, he cannot be compared with Shangguan Hong." Chen Shuang gave a pertinent evaluation.

After such a long time of contact, she has indeed changed a lot about Lu Chen.

However, the other party's background is too humble, and this is the gap between the two.

"If there was no such engagement, it would not be impossible for him to be the son-in-law of the Cao family. It can only be said that the two of them are destined to be together."

Cao Guan said with a complex expression: "In the future, if you help him more, our Cao family will make up for him." JrNovels.com
