Cultivation Online Chapter 963

Chapter 963: The Real Culprit

“T-That young man who beat my son was Player Yuan?! Impossible! I won’t fall for this!” Zheng Ye was in denial.

However, inside his mind, he started recalling a certain rumor that White Lotus had managed to contact Player Yuan in Cultivation Online.

“I don’t care if you believe it or not. However, it is a fact that your family had just tried to assassinate Player Yuan! If the other families learn of this, nobody will dare to stay by your side!” Bai Mengyao shouted.

“Stop! I swear on my ancestors’ graves that our Zheng Family had nothing to do with the assasination! Do you really think that I would do something as blatant and reckless as shooting up a street in broad daylight?!”

Bai Mengyao frowned, and he started wondering if the Zheng Family had truly called in the assassination on Yuan.

“Anyways, do not bother me or my family again until you have concrete proof that it was my family who ordered the hit! And if you dare spread such rumors, I will sue you for slander!”

Zheng Ye closed the video call shortly after and started pacing back and forth his room with a panicked expression on his face.

He was telling the truth when he claimed that he had nothing to do with the assassination attempt, but he had a feeling that he knew the true culprit behind this madness.

He eventually picked up his phone and called his son, Zheng Weimin.

“Hello?” Zheng Weimim picked up the phone after a few rings.

“You crazy bastard! What have you done?! Tell me you are not behind the shooting this afternoon!” Zheng Ye’s voice was so loud that it dazed Zheng Weimin.

However, to his surprise, Zheng Weimin spoke in a calm voice, “Huh? They already got to work? What a pleasant surprise! I really thought it would take at least a few days!”

“Y-You… Are you serious?” Zheng Ye could feel his legs giving out on him after hearing his son’s words.

“Yes, I am. I was the one who ordered the hit on that bastard, so what? This will teach White Lotus what will happen if she dares to approach any man that is not me!” Zheng Weimin laughed out loud.

‘This bastard’s gone insane! Did he hit his head during his fight with Yuan?’ Zheng Ye cried inwardly.

He always knew that his son was a crazy bastard, but even he couldn’t have anticipated that his son would be crazy enough to hire assassins!

‘I have underestimated him! This is bad! Really bad!’

“Don’t worry, father.” Zheng Ye suddenly said.

“I made sure there were no traces or evidence of my involvement, so they won’t be able to hold us accountable.”

Zheng Ye sighed out loud and said, “Have you seen the news?”

“No, I haven’t. Why?” Zheng Ye asked in a puzzled voice.

“There were no deaths. In other words, your assassination attempt has failed.”

“What?! How is that possible! I told them to use the strongest firearms they have available! Not even a Spirit Master cultivator could survive such firepower!”

“Well, not only did they survive, but White Lotus was also there at the time of the attack, so you almost had your beloved assassinated alongside the man you’re trying to kill.”

“WHAT?! I gave those bastards specific instructions to not attack when White Lotus is near the target! Those useless bastards! I paid them a hefty fee, too!” Zheng Weimin cursed out loud.

Since White Lotus was in a disguise, the attackers did not recognize her, but Zheng Weimin wasn’t aware of this fact.

Zheng Ye sighed, and he proceeded to ask, “You… Do you even know the identity of the man who you just tried to have assassinated today?”

“His identity doesn’t matter. Since he dared to offend me, he’s a dead man!”

“Player Yuan! That man was Player Yuan! Do you have any idea what this means?!” Zheng Ye suddenly yelled.

“W-What?” Zheng Weimin muttered in a dazed voice, seemingly having difficulties comprehending what he’d just heard.

“I really hope you didn’t leave any evidence behind! If I learn that you’ve screwed up, I will, without hesitation, kick you out of the family and disown you!”

“B-But father! So what if he’s Player Yuan?! He’s just a nobody who got lucky in Cultivation Online!”

“Do you have any idea how many families within the Legacy Rankings are looking to curry favors with this nobody?! If they learn that you tried to assassinate Yuan, they will definitely side with him to destroy us!”

“I’m done talking with you! However, let me give you one more piece of advice as your father. Hide! Don’t show your face until all of this calms down!”

Zheng Ye disconnected the line and tossed his phone at the wall, smashing it into pieces.

“FUCK! THAT FUCKING CRAZY BASTARD!”

Meanwhile, Zheng Weimin sat on his bed with a dazed look on his face.

“So he was Player Yuan all along… It all makes sense now… No wonder why she dared to fight back.”

“However, none of that matters. They cannot touch me without proof.”

“As for those assassins, even if they have failed their first attempt, they will continue to try until they fulfill our contract.”

Zheng Weimin quickly stopped caring about the situation, as he was confident that he would not get in any trouble for his actions.

After all, there were rules and regulations in this world, and being in the Top 5 of the Legacy Rankings, these regulations were in his favor regardless if he was in the right or wrong.

“I don’t care if you’re Player Yuan! Come get me if you can! Hahaha!” Zheng Weimin laughed like a madman inside his room.

Back at the hotel, White Lotus had the entire hotel secured by her guards so that not even a rat could enter or leave the premises— they were basically in lockdown.

Meanwhile, Meixiu had her wound inspected and treated by a professional.

Yuan was born with an incurable illness that left him blind at a young age and crippled a few years later, rendering everything below his head useless. Deemed hopeless and irredeemable, his parents quickly gave up on him, and the world ignored him. In this dark and still world, his younger sister became his sole reason for living. Watch as this young man reaches for the apex as a genius in Cultivation Online, the newest VRMMORPG, becoming a legendary figure in both worlds. --------------------- Disclaimer: The MC is extremely overpowered and talented but also naive/innocent at first due to his illness. If you cannot wait for character developments and dislike OP MCs, this is not your cup of tea. Furthermore, the 'Earth' in this novel is not the same Earth we are currently living on so do not use our common sense for this novel. This is pure fantasy, after all. --------------------- My other novels: Dual Cultivation/ Inferior Cultivation System
