C1093 To Steal a Chicken Is to Eat a Grain of Rice

Whether it was Ceng Daofu or Ceng Hao, neither of them were willing to accept the fact that they couldn't kill Shen Ze.    

    

Before the incident happened, Ceng Daofu and Ceng Hao both felt that Shen Ze was a man who would die. He would definitely be killed by Ceng Hao.    

    

After Ceng Hao killed Shen Ze, Ceng Hao soared into the sky and became a top expert. The Ceng Family would also advance further because of this, surpassing the other families and families. They would have more prestige and power.    

    

In the end, Zeng Hao was unable to kill Shen Ze. Everything was the opposite of what they had imagined. This was something that both Zeng Daofu and Zeng Hao found hard to accept.    

    

The difference was too great!    

    

Moreover, because Ceng Hao was unable to kill Shen Ze this time, not only did he receive criticism and ridicule, he would also completely become Shen Ze's sworn enemy because of this.    

    

Zeng Hao was the Crown Prince of Zeng Family. All of his actions represented the Zeng Family.    

    

Zeng Hao killing Shen Ze meant that the Zeng Family wanted to kill Shen Ze.    

    

Because of this, the Zeng Family and Shen Ze had completely fallen out with each other. Both sides had become mortal enemies.    

    

It could be imagined that Shen Ze would definitely seek revenge on the Zeng family in the future.    

    

Whether it was Zeng Daofu, Zeng Hao, or the rest of the Zeng family, they were all well aware of this point.    

    

They all knew that with Shen Ze's character, he would definitely seek revenge on the Zeng family.    

    

Therefore, not only did Zeng Hao fail to kill Shen Ze this time, he did not obtain any benefits. Instead, he got himself into huge trouble.    

    

It was really like stealing a chicken and losing a handful of rice. If he lost, his wife would lose her army!    

    

Such an outcome was not only unacceptable to Zeng Daofu and Zeng Hao, but also to the rest of the Zeng family.    

    

The entire Zeng family could not accept such an outcome!    

    

However, even if they could not accept it, they could only accept it. This was because the truth was like this, and there was no way to change it.    

    

Zeng Daofu said in a bad tone, "The result of not being able to kill Shen Diaoloong this time is completely unacceptable to the Zeng Family."    

    

When Zeng Hao heard that, he nodded heavily. Then he said in a very angry tone, "It is indeed a very bad thing for the Zeng family that we did not kill Shen Diaoloong this time."    

    

"We did not get any benefits. Instead, we got ourselves into big trouble."    

    

"What I did this time was really a crushing defeat."    

    

Zeng Hao blamed himself very much. "Grandfather, I'm sorry for your trust. I'm sorry for the Zeng family."    

    

When Zeng Daofu heard this, a complicated expression appeared on his face. He looked at Zeng Hao and let out a long sigh. After which, he said in a deep voice, "I know that you have tried your best and do not wish for such a thing to happen."    

    

"It can only be said that we have not made sufficient preparations. If we do not plan well, we will not be able to grasp the opportunity in the end."    

    

"Grandfather, I will take responsibility for this matter."    

    

Zeng Hao's tone was resolute as he said, "I promise you that if there is a chance in the future, I will kill Shen Diaoloong with my own hands and obtain the result that we want!"    

    

Hearing this, Zeng Daofu nodded.    

    

Regarding Zeng Hao not being able to kill Shen Diaoloong this time, Zeng Daofu was clearly dissatisfied.    

    

He was the family head of the Zeng Family. He needed to consider the interests of the entire family.    

    

Not only did Zeng Hao fail to kill Shen Ze, he did not obtain any benefits, but he also attracted a lot of trouble and disadvantages. This naturally could not satisfy Zeng Daofu.    

    

Of course, because Zeng Hao was Zeng Daofu's grandson, in addition to his own strength and abilities, as well as his status and identity in the Zeng family, he could not blame the latter.    

    

However, this matter still needed Zeng Hao to give an explanation.    

    

Zeng Daofu pondered for a moment, then said to Zeng Hao, "Hao'er, you were unable to kill Shen Diaoloong this time because your own strength was insufficient."    

    

"I want you to start cultivating in seclusion right now, until your martial arts strength reaches the true peak, then you will come out of seclusion and complete what you need to do."    

    

Zeng Daofu's actions indicated that he had locked up Zeng Hao, but in reality, he wanted Zeng Hao to focus on cultivating martial arts.    

    

Zeng Hao naturally understood Zeng Daofu's painstaking efforts.    

    

Hence, he nodded without hesitation and complied. "Alright, Grandfather. I will listen to your arrangements."    

    

Then, Zeng Hao seemed to have thought of something. He said to Zeng Daofu, "Grandfather, because I went to kill Shen Diaoloong this time, I pushed the Zeng family to the edge of the storm. The Zeng family will probably face a lot of trouble in the future. If I go into seclusion, I'm afraid I won't be able to help."    

    

Whether it was Zeng Hao or Zeng Daofu, they were both very loyal. Zeng Hao going to kill Shen Ze this time would definitely incur Shen Ze's hatred.    

    

With Shen Ze's character, he would definitely take revenge on Zeng Hao and the Zeng family.    

    

After this, the Zeng family would likely face a lot of trouble and problems.    

    

What Zeng Hao could think of, Zeng Daofu could naturally think of it as well.    

    

Zeng Daofu pondered for a moment, then said, "Leave the rest to me. If there really is something that requires your presence, I will call it out."    

    

Hearing Zeng Daofu's words, Zeng Hao nodded and said, "Alright."    

    

Then, Zeng Hao looked at Zeng Daofu with guilt and said apologetically, "Grandfather, I'll have to trouble you to handle the rest of the matters."    

    

When Zeng Daofu heard this, he rolled his eyes at Zeng Hao and said unhappily, "You're still so polite to Grandfather!"    

    

When Zeng Hao heard this, he smiled embarrassedly and scratched the back of his head with his hand. He looked very simple and honest.    

    

In front of Zeng Daofu, Zeng Hao was still that grandson who would never grow up.    

    

"Alright, don't worry about other things. Go into seclusion now."    

    

With that, Ceng Daofu waved his hand at Ceng Hao.    

    

Ceng Hao knew that Ceng Daofu wanted him to go into seclusion right now in order to prevent others from causing trouble for him. After all, he was in a disadvantageous position this time, causing great trouble for the Zeng family.    

    

Ceng Daofu wanted Ceng Hao to go into seclusion right now. On the surface, it could be considered as punishment for Ceng Hao, but in reality, it was a form of protection for Ceng Hao.    

    

Towards this grandson of Ceng Hao, Ceng Daofu still doted on him very much.    

    

Ceng Hao understood Ceng Daofu's meaning, so he didn't say anything else. He immediately stood up, bowed deeply towards Ceng Daofu, and then turned around to leave.    

    

Surprisingly, Zeng Hao followed Zeng Daofu's arrangements and went into seclusion.    

    

After Zeng Hao left, Zeng Daofu, who was still sitting in the study room, rubbed the space between his brows with his hand. His face revealed a dense look of fatigue.    

    

At this moment, Zeng Daofu seemed to have aged significantly. His expression looked very haggard.    

    

As the head of the Zeng Family, Zeng Daofu had experienced many storms and storms. He had been in charge of the Zeng Family for nearly thirty years, and he had handled all the troublesome matters.    

    

However, the matter before his eyes shockingly gave him a headache.    

    

After all, the matter of Zeng Hao killing Shen Ze was too big, and it had a huge impact. There were too many things involved.    

    

Everything had its pros and cons.    

    

If one could obtain huge benefits, then there was a huge risk.    

    

This was how Zeng Hao killed Shen Ze.    

    

Because Zeng Hao was unable to kill Shen Ze, the Zeng family had fallen into a very bad situation.
