At this moment, Cao Gui stood at the entrance of the Bluestone Cave Mansion, smiling bitterly to himself: he never thought the tables would turn, and finally, he had to seek cooperation with Ning Zhuo.
In truth, when Ning Zhuo's fame was rising and he stood out in various Xingyun Trials, the Cao Family had sent people several times to persuade Cao Gui to leverage their previous friendship to engage positively with Ning Zhuo, but Cao Gui diplomatically refused each time.
During this process, Cao Gui himself gradually saw the truth: Although Ning Zhuo and Yu Heye turned enemies into friends, he maintained a distance and never cooperated with Yu Heye to undermine Cao Gui's or the Cao family's influence.
