Gu Ning considered all the possibilities.
The only possibility is that Xu An was threatened by her grandfather.
Xu An smiled helplessly and sat down next to Gu Ning.
"The dean told me not to choose you."
“It’s not worth it to say your talent level is too low.”
Xu An said directly.
Gu Ning was taken aback. "Heh, so I really am your grandfather."
"However, that's just his personality."
He hesitated for a moment, then looked at Xu An again.
So, you pity me?
"I don't need anyone's pity!"
Gu Ning said.
His tone was very firm.
"Pity you?"
"Then I might as well pity myself. You're the granddaughter of a hospital director, what's there to pity about?"
Xu An rolled his eyes in exasperation.
"I've taken a liking to your talent, Beast Taming!"
"And also, your character."
Xu Andao.
Gu Ning stared blankly at Xu An for a long while, seemingly trying to discern what Xu An was thinking from his face.
"I need to discuss this with Grandpa."
After a long silence, Gu Ning spoke.
Xu An smiled.
If it were anyone else, they would probably have jumped up and down with joy and agreed.
But Gu Ning, with a face full of concerns, still wanted to discuss it further.
And this...
This also proves that he did not choose the wrong person.
If you elevate an A-level spiritualist to S-level, the other party won't feel much gratitude; they'll just think they were a genius to begin with.
At most, we'd give him some resources or some money.
However, upgrading from E-rank to S-rank is a different story.
Adding flowers to brocade can never compare to providing charcoal in the snow.
He's already raised two ungrateful children, and this time...
He didn't want to raise another ungrateful child!
...
night.
To celebrate his successful apprenticeship, Cao Meng insisted on treating everyone to a meal.
Not only did they bring in Xu An and Master Li, but they also invited Li Xingxuan, Chen Yan, and others.
At the same time.
A luxury car sped along the mountain road and finally stopped in front of the huge castle at the top of the mountain.
Xu Wang and Xu Fengling followed Wei Kong out of the car and stared blankly at the luxurious castle in front of them.
At the entrance, a simply dressed but very elegant middle-aged man was waiting with a smile.
Several security guards and nannies were standing nearby.
The man's smile was kind and gentle, just like it had been many years ago.
"My father, Wei Zhang!"
"You met them many years ago."
Wei Kong introduced with a smile.
Then she turned to look at Wei Zhang.
“Father, I have told you.”
"Xu Fengling, Xu Wang!"
Wei Kong smiled and said.
"Haha, my two distinguished guests, we meet again."
"It's unbelievable! Those two kids from back then have become renowned child prodigies!"
"Please come in quickly."
Wei Zhang greeted them very warmly.
Xu Wang and Xu Fengling exchanged a glance, both sensing the excitement in each other's hearts.
"From now on, treat this place like your own home."
"Come back with Wei Kong whenever you have time. If you need money, food, clothing, or other necessities, just tell Wei Kong directly."
"I've liked you two children ever since we first met."
"In my heart, I have always regarded you as my own children."
Wei Zhang warmly led the group into the castle.
only……
At the gate, Wei Kong's steps visibly paused for a moment.
A flicker of fear flashed uncontrollably in his eyes.
It seemed as if there was something extremely terrifying inside this castle.
Not long after, in the castle's dark basement.
Wei Kong stripped off his shirt and knelt on the ground, his body trembling uncontrollably.
The walls of the small room were covered with all sorts of blood-stained instruments of torture.
"Father...Father..."
"Since I brought them both back today, could you... could you go easy on them?"
Wei Kong's voice trembled.
"Um?"
Are you making a request of me?
A cold voice sounded from behind. Wei Zhang was holding a long whip, which was covered with barbs made of twisted steel wire.
*Smack!*
With one lash, Wei Kong's skin was instantly torn open.
The barbs ripped off his flesh.
The excruciating pain made Wei Kong break out in a cold sweat, but he dared not move an inch.
"You wretched dog!"
"If it weren't for me, you wretched dog would have starved to death on the roadside long ago."
"For so many years, I've taken care of your food and clothing, made you proud in front of others, and sent you to Lingwu Academy."
"Right now, I'm just letting you satisfy one of my hobbies, and you, you wretched dog, are trying to bargain with me?"
Wei Zhang frantically whipped Wei Kong in front of him, and watching Wei Kong being whipped until his flesh and blood were flying everywhere, he clearly felt much better.
At this moment, Wei Zhang seemed like a completely different person; his face no longer held the kind expression he once had.
As the fight reached its climax, Wei Zhang went completely mad, grabbing Wei Kong and tearing a chunk of flesh from his body, which he then chewed greedily.
"Father...father..."
Wei Kong rolled on the ground in pain, but his cries of agony could not be heard outside the room.
After a while, Wei Zhang wiped the blood off his hands and left behind a bottle of healing medicine.
"You're much better than those other bastards, who were dead after just a couple of hits."
“In the days you’ve been gone, your father… hasn’t been able to have any fun.”
