"I'm sorry …" The disciple jumped at the sight of Jiaoqi's anger. "It's the head of the house who ordered us to inform him immediately if something big happened …"
"Jiaoqi, I said that, don't blame him!" Gonggao said weakly. "Tell me, what happened? What exactly happened? "
"Dad, your heart …" Jiaoqi was worried that it was bad news for House Wu, so he tried to stop him.
"It's fine, I won't die yet! Chentian's too impulsive, and as his grandfather- I have to take responsibility for him! "Chentian waved his hand.
Jiaoqi sighed. His father was a tyrant, but he was still the head of the house after all these years. He was a bit dissatisfied, but ever since Chentian showed his talent in martial arts, Gonggao had been paying more and more attention to him, spoiling him a little. He'd even suggested Chentian to be the next head of House Wu during the family meetings!
At this time, Wu Jiaoqi's heart calmed down. In his generation, he wasn't the only one. He had an elder sister and a younger brother. His elder sister was already married, so she couldn't compete with him. But the most important thing was his younger brother and nephew. These two people were the real threat to him.
But now that Chentian was confirmed as the next heir, Jiaoqi didn't have to worry about these two anymore. He'd even thought it through. If he didn't become the head of the house, then so be it. With his father's condition, it was possible that the position would be passed on to Chentian. What was the point of fighting for it?
When Chentian became the head of the house, he'd have the same amount of power as the head of the house.
However, Wu Jiaolong, Wu Jiaolong's younger brother, spoke up at this moment. His voice was stern, and tears were about to fall from his eyes. "Father, you have to protect your health. You are the pillar of the Wu Family. If you collapse, our Wu Family will be finished. There's no need to take responsibility for a junior's mistake!"
"That's right, grandpa. Bro Chentian may have gotten into trouble, but we still have me!" The one who spoke was Chentian's younger brother, Chendi. He had always been a well-behaved and scheming person, and he didn't understand why his grandpa didn't think highly of him, instead favoring his stupid older brother!
All the good things were taken by Chentian, and he, Chentian, could only be a nobody. What was this? In terms of practice level, he wasn't bad. He was one year younger than Chentian, and although he broke through to Golden class early phase later than Chentian, the two were already on the same level. Why didn't grandpa look at him?
Gonggao looked at Jiaolong and Chendi calmly, "So you're saying that we should give up on Chentian and use House Wu's resources to train you, Chendi?"
"Grandpa, that's not what I meant …" Chengdi felt wronged. That's what I meant, but why did you say it out loud? Even if I am, I can't admit it in front of so many people.
"Since that's not the case, then what else is there to say?" Gonggao interrupted Chendi and turned to the informant, "Speak, what happened?"
"Leader, Jin Wudi is dead." The disciple looked at the Wu Family's internal strife and was a little careful.
"Dead? What did you say? Jin Wudi is dead? How did he die? " Gonggao's eyes froze as he sat up from the bed, his eyes regaining their sharpness as he stared at the disciple.
"Er Goudan … Master Tian's new boss, killed him with one punch, instant kill." The disciple said.
"Chentian's boss killed him? Or was it an instant kill? " Wu Gonggao jumped up from the bed. The infusion tube in his hand had been torn apart, but he didn't know it at all. "Is what you said true? Jin Wudi was killed by that Er Goudan? "
"Yes, Patriarch, I dare not hide it. After this matter happened, I immediately came to report it to Patriarch!" The disciple said.
"Hahahaha!" Gonggao started laughing, his laughter shaking the skies, "That's great! The heavens have blessed us, House Wu! Wahahaha, that Chentian kid has good eyes- he actually got a boss like this! Looks like House Wu has hope! "
At this time, other than Wu Gonggao, the happiest person was probably Wu Jiaoqi. Previously, he was still trembling with fear because of his son's matter, fearing that his younger brother and nephew would join forces to seize the position of the family head. But now, it seemed that the dark clouds had passed and the rainbow could be seen.
"It's all thanks to your teachings, father! This Chentian is lucky, he doesn't have that many schemes, but it's easier for people to accept him this way!" Jiaoqi was mocking Jiaolong and Chendi, saying that they were scheming, what was the use of being smart? They weren't even as good as a random boss Chentian had chosen!
Wu Jiaolong and Chendi's faces were very ugly. They had planned to use this chance to persuade Gonggao to bring Chentian back and let Chentian reflect on himself, replacing him with Chendi. But now, it was all for naught.
"Ugh … Grandpa, this is actually a blessing in disguise. Hidden houses have Sky class masters, who knows if House Pi will come back for revenge? Let's not drag House Wu down with us! "Chendi reminded.
"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking!" Gonggao kicked Chendi, "Scram, get out, I don't want to see you!"
Chendi was kicked away, his heart filled with sadness. He was only one year older than Chentian, and their training speed was about the same, so why did he have to like Chentian so much?
Hatred flashed in Jiaolong's eyes as well- he didn't know why Gonggao didn't like him and his son. It had been like this since they were young, and it was still like this now! It didn't matter if his talent was bad, but Chendi's talent was good!
Jiaolong brought Chendi out of the room quickly, not daring to go against the old man at a time like this.
After Jiaolong left, Gonggao's face calmed down. He turned to Jiaoqi, "Call Chentian immediately and ask about the situation!"
