Chapter 251: Grandson
A few minutes had gone by before Zhao Xin and Zhao Gaofu regained their composure.
The eyesight they used to glance at Zhao Kai had changed immensely.
Naturally, the most obvious was Zhao Gaofu, who no longer held somewhat of a contempt or disgusted expression at Zhao Kai.
As for Zhao Xin, she was rather pleased to see her little brother had such an ability that she had never known.
After all, things had just become easier for her to convince Zhao Gaofu to let Zhao Kai enter the company.
Meanwhile, Zhao Kai was uncomfortable to see his grandfather's intense gaze at him.
In response, he went back to Xu Feng, hiding from them. Although he had questions in mind, especially about the performance he had just done, he knew now was not the time to ask.
"So Mister Feng, can you explain how my grandson just performed a supposed miracle?" Zhao Gaofu asked, changing his address from young man to mister, as well as acknowledging Zhao Kai as his grandson.
'What a sly old fox.' Xu Feng inwardly sneered.
Nevertheless, that was precisely the result that Xu Feng wanted.
"Your mind must be trying to tell you that what you just saw was an illusion or special effect of some sort. But I can tell you that it's real and the reason why he can perform such a miracle is because of the Divine World." Xu Feng smiled.
"The Divine World?" Startled, Zhao Xin questioned, "But how is that possible? I don't see my speed increase like Little Kai did."
"That's because you don't have the correct technique." Xu Feng laughed, not a bit surprised by her doubts.
Zhao Xin was speechless, but she still refused to believe his words. She turned her attention to the hiding Zhao Kai, clearly wanting him to explain.
Sensing her sister's gaze, Zhao Kai pointed at Xu Feng and said, "It's true, eldest sis. I have been trained by Feng for a while in the Divine World. The training was weird and difficult, but very effective."
With Zhao Kai's claim, Zhao Xin had no other choice but to believe Xu Feng.
After all, she knew her little brother quite well, and he wouldn't dare to deceive her.
But then the question came?
How did Xu Feng know such training?
"Are you saying you can pass the training method to grandfather?" Zhao Xin inquired.
"The training isn't all that special, and I'm just saying that Elder Gaofu here should join the Divine World and experience the new world." Xu Feng commented.
He was not a bit afraid of having Zhao Gaofu enter the Divine World. In his past timeline, Zhao Gaofu had also entered the Divine World once he realized his lifespan was shortening fast.
Hence, he was merely accelerating the timeline a little bit, as well as selling a favor to Zhao Gaofu.
A few seconds later, Zhao Gaofu stood up and took up a small grape as well.
"Since my grandson can achieve such a feat, can you do the same, Mister Feng?" He toyed around with the grape in his fingers, smiling at Xu Feng.
Right as he tossed the grape up in amusement, his vision blurred for a moment.
"Why the need to catch a grape, Elder Gaofu?"
In the blink of an eye, Xu Feng had appeared behind Zhao Gaofu.
However, what was more astonishing was that his previous location still contained his appearance, only dissipating once Xu Feng finished his statement.
'An afterimage?' Alarmed, Zhao Gaofu was inwardly dumbfounded by the situation. Initially, he thought only his grandson had accomplished this feat and that Xu Feng was merely riding on the wave to reap the benefit.
Yet reality had slapped him quite hard.
Just with this small display of movement, Zhao Gaofu could confirm that his grandson was inferior to Xu Feng.
At the same time, Zhao Xin was starting to look at Xu Feng in a new light, seemingly unable to fathom his capability.
"This has got to be the second time I was shocked to the core." She mumbled, recalling how Lin Feng had opened her eyes to strategy and combat style.
Sometime later, Xu Feng returned to his seat and crossed his legs. "So how about it? Do you like this kind of birthday gift?"
Zhao Gaofu was silent briefly before laughing merrily, even forgetting about his composure.
"Hahaha, youngsters are truly surpassing the old." He clapped his hands and continued, "This kind of birthday gift is really extravagant and more amazing than those ancient relics or pendants."
Pleased, Xu Feng snapped his finger, grabbing Zhao Kai's attention.
Chapter Stay:
"What are you still standing there in a daze for, Kai?" Xu Feng reprimanded.
"Your grandfather wants to listen to the training method, so why don't you explain it to him thoroughly?"
"R–Right away," Baffled, Zhao Kai took a few seconds before walking toward Zhao Gaofu. He found the situation really laughable and unbelievable.
Just a few minutes ago, he was still neglected and merely an illegitimate son. Now, he was acknowledged, with Zhao Gaofu even smiling at him and calling him his grandson.
Zhao Gaofu even went as far as patting the empty seat next to him, clearly wanting Zhao Kai to sit there and explain the situation to him.
Meanwhile, Xu Feng merely smiled, stood up, and took his leave without announcing it.
His main objective was completed, with him determining the most suspicious person being Zhao Liang. However, because of this maneuver, Zhao Kai's status in the family had risen tremendously.
"So grandson, what was that training you were doing? Was it difficult?" Zhao Gaofu held an amiable expression on his face, his eyes looking lovingly at Zhao Kai.
"Ah yes, so the training begins with…" As Zhao Kai readily explained the story of how it began from the start, Zhao Xin silently left them alone as well, a smile appearing on her face.
Shortly after, Zhao Xin called out to Xu Feng.
"Feng, wait a minute." She caught up to him and grabbed his arm.
With a solemn expression, she asked, "Are you related to Lin Feng in any way?
