Chapter 88 Alluring Figure
Upon hearing that Zhou Wei wanted to treat him to dinner, Ye Feng thought for a moment and, since he didn't have anything else to do, nodded in agreement.
soon.
The two found a restaurant, but since it was only afternoon, they didn't drink any alcohol.
After eating.
Zhou Wei wanted to take Ye Feng home, but he refused with some excuse.
After the two parted ways, Ye Feng did not go home or to the company, but instead turned and walked in the direction of the Kong family villa.
"Old man, I'd like to see what kind of scheme you're plotting!"
Ye Feng kept thinking to himself as he traveled.
When he first met Master Mo, he sensed that he had the same aura as the Gu poison within Old Master Kong.
Ye Feng was certain that the Gu curse cast by Master Kong was cast by him.
Those who use witchcraft to cast spells are most likely connected to the Holy Cult.
It's just unclear what their purpose was in attacking Master Kong.
Ye Feng arrived at the perimeter of the Kong family villa, found a corner where no one was paying attention, and jumped in.
With his skill, the Kong family's security guards didn't notice anything amiss.
A quick glance around revealed a huge crape myrtle tree next to the villa.
He leaped up and hid in the dense red canopy of trees, using his mental energy to sense the situation inside the villa.
At this moment, inside the villa's restaurant, Kong Qinghan and others are hosting a banquet for Master Mo.
"Master Mo, thank you for your help in reviving my father from his coma."
Kong Zhaoning raised his glass with a respectful expression: "I'd like to offer you a toast to express my gratitude."
"It's nothing, not worth mentioning. Young friend Kong, you're too kind."
Master Mo smiled slightly, raised his wine glass, and clinked it against the other person's.
Kong Qinghan, standing beside him, also raised his wine glass: "Master Mo, this may be a small matter for you, but it is a matter of utmost importance for us."
"We, the Kong family, will forever remember your kindness, and we extend our respect to you as well."
The host and guests enjoyed themselves immensely during the conversation, and the meal lasted for several hours.
It wasn't until dusk that Master Mo announced his departure, and Kong Zhaoning accompanied him to see him off.
The two walked out of the villa, their smiles vanishing. After cautiously checking to make sure no one was following, Master Ge whispered, "They've already been tricked. Now it's up to you."
Kong Zhaoning nodded respectfully: "Sixth Elder, rest assured, I will sound out the old man's opinion first."
"If we can find out the whereabouts of the treasure from him, then there's no need to take action against the others."
"After all, if the Confucian family doesn't fall into chaos, it's still somewhat useful to the Holy Church."
Master Mo glanced at him and said in a deep voice, "You're not hesitant to harm them, are you?"
"I warn you, betraying the Holy Church will not end well."
"No, no!"
Kong Zhaoning quickly replied, "Sixth Elder, you are wise! I would never betray the Holy Sect!"
"Um."
Master Mo nodded and left, while Kong Zhaoning returned to the villa.
On the crape myrtle tree, Ye Feng's eyes flickered slightly: "So these two guys are in cahoots."
During the day at the Kong family's residence, he saw Kong Qinghan taking the lead in everything and assumed she was colluding with Master Mo.
Inside the villa.
Kong Qinghan and the others then went to the old man's bedroom.
Grandpa Kong had just woken up, his face still pale, and was being helped by a nurse to lean against the headboard.
Kong Qinghan and Kong Yiqian stepped forward to offer their greetings, while Kong Zhaoning stood behind them, trying to figure out how to get information out of the old man.
At this moment, Old Master Kong suddenly spoke up: "Qinghan, Zhaoning, you and the others can go out first, Yiqian stay."
Kong Qinghan didn't think much of it and told the nurses and doctors in the room to leave.
Kong Zhaoning's eyes flashed with resentment, but since the old man had already spoken, he had no choice but to follow Kong Qinghan out of the bedroom.
After everyone else left, Old Master Kong instructed Kong Yiqian, "Go and lock the door."
"what?"
Kong Yiqian was taken aback, then walked over, locked the door, and returned to ask, "Dad, is something the matter?"
Grandpa Kong pointed to the side of the bed, where there was a cane.
The cane was blackish-yellow and looked quite old, but it wasn't made of any precious wood.
Kong Yiqian held the cane in front of him and asked curiously, "Dad, is there something wrong with this cane?"
The old man didn't say anything, but took the cane, twisted the armrest, and poured out a silver token.
The token was small, about an inch long and half an inch wide, and was engraved with many strange patterns, which seemed to indicate that it had a significant history.
"Dad, what's this?"
Kong Yiqian stared at the token, his curiosity growing.
A look of emotion appeared in the old man's eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "This token has been passed down in our family since the time of the Kong family patriarch. It is said to be related to a great opportunity."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "But what exactly it was, has been lost to history for so many years."
"My days are numbered. From now on, you will be the head of the Kong family. Today, I pass it on to you."
"Remember, you must not tell anyone about this, or it will bring annihilation upon the Kong family."
On the crape myrtle tree, Ye Feng suddenly realized something.
It seems that the Holy Sect's attack on the Confucius family was aimed at this token.
Suddenly, his gaze sharpened, and he turned to look into the distance.
In the darkness, a figure slipped into the Kong family villa and quietly approached the window of Old Master Kong's bedroom.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of a window breaking was heard.
"Who are you?"
A furious shout rang out from inside the room: "Help! Catch the thief!"
next second.
The figure jumped out of the window and fled, quickly running away into the distance.
Although the man's entire head was covered by a black cloth, Ye Feng recognized him as Master Mo at a glance.
Just as Master Mo ran out of the Kong family's house, another person rushed out from the side.
Caught off guard, the token that Master Mo had just snatched was intercepted by this person.
"How dare you steal from my Holy Church! You come back here!"
Master Mo roared angrily and quickly chased after the man.
Ye Feng saw all this from the tree, a playful look in his eyes. He was also very familiar with that figure, which had a seductive figure.
"Interesting, very interesting."
He chuckled and didn't chase after the two.
During the day, he left a mark on Master Mo.
We're going to let them run for a while before chasing them; maybe we can find the Holy Church's stronghold in Zhonghai.
Inside the villa.
The entire Kong family gathered in the living room, and even Old Master Kong got out of bed.
Kong Zhaoning suddenly took out a small drum about the size of a teacup and tapped it lightly.
Grandpa Kong looked pained, cold sweat poured down his forehead, he clutched his chest, and collapsed onto the sofa.
"Zhaoning, what did you do to Father?"
Kong Yiqian was furious upon seeing this and angrily rebuked Kong Zhaoning.
Kong Zhaoning sneered: "This old bastard is dying but he still favors you. I'll make him taste the price of favoritism."
He had just overheard through the eavesdropping device that Old Master Kong not only handed over the ancestral treasure to Kong Yiqian, but also wanted him to inherit the position of family head, which instantly enraged him.
They decided to stop hiding and completely break ties with the Kong family.
"Zhaoning, Father isn't being biased..."
Kong Yiqian tried to explain, but Kong Zhaoning coldly interrupted him: "Stop talking nonsense!"
"If you want to spare the old man from the torment of the witchcraft, give me all the shares of the Kong family's businesses!"
