The Great Elder glanced over and quickly extended his hand.
Just like that, the two of them clasped hands directly...
If someone unfamiliar with them saw this scene, they would definitely think they had a very good relationship.
In reality, both of them wished they could tear each other to pieces.
After the handshake ended, Cao Meng looked at the Great Elder and said, "Great Elder, our Cao Family was once in its heyday, but now we’re hiding in this small place. Don’t you feel suppressed?"
The Great Elder frowned and sighed despondently, "Of course I feel suppressed, but there’s no choice. The family has completely disintegrated! We aren’t strong enough, so we can only hide here and barely survive."
Previously, the entire family disintegrated, and they came here...
Honestly, it took a lot of effort to regain a stable footing.
After stabilizing, they thought about expanding their territory, but it’s very difficult because there are many powerful local tyrants here.
They absolutely refuse to yield even an inch...
Hearing the Great Elder’s despondent words, Cao Meng’s eyes flashed with excitement, "Great Elder, I think we can summon all the scattered family members to come together again."
"Summon everyone to come together again? I’ve thought about that before, but it’s difficult, and honestly, we simply don’t have the ability."
In the past, there were many people who, relying on their strength, attempted to rally everyone to revive our glory.
But ultimately, they all failed.
Because it’s really too difficult; the resistance is overwhelming.
"I know we don’t have that ability; after all, our strength is much less. But I feel that Hu Xiaobei’s strength is quite good, don’t you think?"
Hearing Cao Meng mention Hu Xiaobei, the Great Elder frowned...
He knew Cao Meng definitely had some crooked ideas.
However, he couldn’t quite grasp them for the moment.
Without rushing to figure out what sneaky plan he was cooking up, he smiled faintly and said ambiguously, "Indeed! Hu Xiaobei’s strength is good, but if you want others to submit, there’s still quite a challenge."
"I think he’s very strong, so I believe we should let him give it a try!"
Hearing Cao Meng’s enthusiastic suggestion again, the Great Elder gave him an indifferent look and calmly said, "Let’s speak frankly; say what you want all at once. I can’t fully grasp what you’re trying to say."
"Old fox!"
Cao Meng cursed silently in his heart...
Soon, he glanced around to ensure no one was within sight, then leaned closer and asked softly, "Have you heard of ’driving away the wolf to chase the tiger’?"
"Of course I’ve heard of it. What’s the meaning behind it, could it be..."
As he finished speaking, the Great Elder’s eyes suddenly narrowed.
Seeing the Great Elder understood his meaning, Cao Meng chuckled and calmly said, "Whether it’s Hu Xiaobei or the other independent members of the Cao Family, they’re all our opponents. So I think causing them to fight would benefit us greatly, don’t you think?"
After thinking carefully, the Great Elder nodded lightly, "Indeed! They really aren’t on the same page with us, so it’s possible to use the strategy of driving away the wolf to chase the tiger. However, this plan is somewhat difficult to implement!"
"Of course it’s difficult. There’s no such thing as a risk-free endeavor in this world, do you agree?"
"Yes!"
After thinking carefully, the Great Elder nodded.
He knew that he was indeed somewhat sentimental now.
Everything one does has consequences to bear.
This is true...
Seeing the Great Elder nod, Cao Meng excitedly reiterated, "Now we can quietly hide in the back and watch them cause chaos. This way, we can preserve our strength to the greatest extent, and at the critical moment, we can come out to clean up the mess."
"What if Hu Xiaobei really wins?"
"If Hu Xiaobei really wins? That would be even better for us! We’ve been doing well recently, but honestly, it’s just in this tiny place. Once we try to expand a bit, we’re nothing, right?"
"Indeed!"
"So, if Hu Xiaobei wins, we’ll completely take over the entire Cao Family. By then, our power will increase significantly. Even if we’re merely Hu Xiaobei’s dogs, we’ll be much better off than now."
"Exactly!"
