Hell Revival: My Succubi Are Too Powerful - Chapter 30
“Hmm, it’s over. What did you want to talk to me about?”
Xu Ning did not want to waste any more time, so he went straight to the point.
However, Xu Tianjiao, who was on the other end of the phone, was unhappy when he heard this. He said snappily, “What’s wrong? Can’t your father call you to show some concern?”
“Do you know how worried I was when you didn’t pick up the two calls I made earlier? I thought that you were injured by a level-four demon, so I went to ask Zhao Dezhu about your situation. Then, not long after I heard that you were fine, I felt relieved. Then, I f*cking thought that if I gave you a spirit herb, you would definitely be unable to resist taking it and cultivating. The moment I felt relieved, my heart immediately jumped.”
At the mention of this, Xu Tianjiao’s tone was already tinged with anger.
“You’ve made it so that I can’t even work anymore. You brought your men and charged straight into your house. Heh, as expected, you little bastard…you were cultivating. You said you were cultivating, so you started cultivating. Why didn’t you inform me beforehand?
“Aren’t you afraid that the commotion would suddenly attract some demons to your house?
“Fortunately, I discovered it quickly and set up some arrays around your house. Otherwise, you brat, you might have been interrupted by the demons while you were cultivating!”
“This…” Xu Ning was rendered speechless by Xu Tianjiao’s words. At that time, he was only focused on cultivating and improving, so he had never thought about these things.
At the same time, his heart warmed slightly. So this father of his knew that he was a father after all. He was worried that he would put down the busy work in his hands and directly come over to check on him.
“Alright, I’m sorry to have made you worry.”
Xu Ning knew that he was in the wrong, so he apologized honestly.
However, when he apologized, Xu Tianjiao on the other end of the phone became silent instead.
“Could it be that this kid is cultivating and has become stupid? He actually changed his character today and apologized so sincerely.”
Xu Tianjiao began to sink into deep suspicion. According to his expectations, Xu Ning would probably give him a beating and then use this not something that a father should do to bite him back.
However, Xu Ning did not know what Xu Tianjiao was thinking. When he saw that there was silence on the other end of the phone, he thought that Xu Tianjiao did not know how to continue the conversation, hence, he said, “Father, what exactly did you want to talk to me about? It’s true that you’re concerned about this, but with your personality, there’s definitely something else going on.”
Hearing this, Xu Tianjiao pursed his lips and thought to himself, ‘This brat’s guess is really accurate.’
He sighed slightly. His gaze was solemn and his expression was solemn, he said in an extremely serious tone, “It’s hard to say the details over the phone. Wait for me for a while. I’ll immediately drive over to your house to have a face-to-face talk with you. This matter is very important. It concerns the safety of your two friends.”
Xu Ning’s heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly asked, “Two friends?”
However, Xu Tianjiao did not answer him. Instead, he directly hung up the phone.
“…”
Seeing that the call on his phone had been hung up, Xu Ning could not calm down for a long time.
He knew that the two friends that Xu Tianjiao mentioned were most likely Yi Guang and Chen Zhong.
Previously, when he was in the counselor’s office, he had heard Xu Tianjiao mention that Yi Guang and Chen Zhong were his subordinates.
Then, during class, he did not see Yi Guang. When Chen Zhong appeared, Xu Ning guessed that the two of them had gone to carry out some kind of mission.
Now, it seemed that not only did they go to carry out the mission, but they had also trapped him!
“Two idiots!”
Xu Ning gritted his teeth and cursed worriedly. He anxiously waited for Xu Tianjiao’s arrival.
…
An hour later, just as Xu Ning was about to lose his patience, his enhanced ears, which were many times more sensitive than ordinary people’s, heard the sound of leather shoes stepping on the floor outside the corridor.
Not long after, the sound of keys turning and opening the door rang out from Xu Ning’s room.
This made Xu Ning frown. Xu Tianjiao had gone to fix his house key. However, thinking about it, Xu Tianjiao probably did not dare to rashly break through because he could not control himself during his cultivation. He did not want to disturb him and cause a backlash, so, he could only use a gentler method to make a key.
Just as Xu Ning was thinking about this, Xu Tianjiao walked in. As soon as he entered, he felt a familiar demonic aura. He had felt that aura before when he came here, but it was not as dense as it was now, he guessed that Aili had sneaked a glance at Xu Ning while he was cultivating.
However, this was a good thing, so Xu Tianjiao did not pay much attention to it.
He came to the living room and found Xu Ning sitting on the sofa. He did not stand on ceremony with Xu Ning and directly sat down beside him.
Xu Ning looked at him indifferently, picked up the teapot and cup that was prepared on the table, and made a cup of tea for him.
“Yes, sir!”
Xu Ning handed the teacup to Xu Tianjiao and gestured at him with his mouth. Then, with his other hand, he picked up the cup that he had already poured the tea for and drank it.
Unexpectedly, Xu Tianjiao did not drink it after taking it. Instead, he placed it on the table and said with a grave expression, “Xu Ning, something happened to Yi Guang and Chen Zhong.”
Hearing this, Xu Ning’s expression changed slightly. Although he was mentally prepared, his hand that was holding the teacup could not help but tremble slightly. Then, the teacup shattered because of the force that Xu Ning could not control due to nervousness.
Ding ling ling…
The broken glass pieces fell to the ground, making a pure sound. It was the owner of this incident.
Xu Tianjiao saw that his son’s expression had become a little ugly, so he did not dare to disturb him.
After a moment, Xu Ning took a deep breath and temporarily suppressed all negative emotions. He decided to listen to what Xu Tianjiao had to say. If there was still hope for the two of them, based on the brotherhood of the three of them over the past few years…no matter what, Xu Ning had to bring the two of them back.
Of course, if…the two of them had reached the point where there was no turning back, he, Xu Ning, swore that he would tear down the devil that had done this and torture it before letting it die! At the thought of this, a dangerous purple light flashed in Xu Ning’s eyes.
“Dad, tell me, what exactly happened?”
Xu Tianjiao noticed that Xu Ning’s expression was calm. It seemed like he had calmed down, so he asked, “Do you still remember the old campus of your school?”
“The old campus?”
Xu Ning frowned. In his memory, was the old campus of his school not abandoned a long time ago?
How could this matter be related to the old campus? Could it be that the demon was hiding in the old campus?
Xu Ning was extremely confused, but Xu Tianjiao did not seem to notice it. He continued, “A week ago, the local police station received a report from the manager of your old campus.
“Some time ago, that manager went to patrol the back mountain in the middle of the night as usual. However, as soon as he arrived near the back mountain forest, he heard a series of screams. According to him, that was the most miserable scream he had ever heard in his life.”
Xu Ning nodded. At the same time, he thought to himself, ‘This manager of the back of the mountain is really gutsy. He actually dared to go on patrol in the middle of the night. However, that’s right. If he’s not gutsy, how would he dare to take the job of manager of the back of the mountain in the old campus?” After all, there was basically no teacher or student in their old campus..
