Gu Hongkang came with an angry expression, but the moment he saw Wei Yuantong, he immediately restrained himself.

“Elder Wei, you came from afar, and 1 apologize for not welcoming you properly! I wonder if it was my servants who offended you to the extent that you won’t even enter the Gu family gate?”

As soon as he spoke, he shifted the blame onto the Gu family’s servants.

Wei Yuantong shook his head. “It has nothing to do with them; it’s my own issue.”

Gu Hongkang’s expression changed slightly. “What do you mean, Elder Wei?”

I’ve got some personal matters I need to sort out. When I have any lingering resentment, it affects my ability to treat someone properly. I hope you can appreciate that, Elder Gu.

“So, it’s because of some negligence on my part that has upset you?” Gu Hongkang understood the situation but acted as if he didn’t.

Wei Yuantong pondered for a moment. “It’s not about you, but rather the two people 1 was asked to save. I’ve heard some unfavorable rumors about them. I’m a rather whimsical person, and once 1 develop a dislike for someone, 1 can’t simply turn a blind eye and treat them like an ordinary patient. So, please find another solution, Elder Gu.”

He spoke quite frankly, almost pointing out that he couldn’t save Gu Jinyue and Gu Jinhong because of their character flaws.

As the grandfather of Gu Jinyue and Gu Jinhong, Gu Hongkang felt that he was humiliated, and his eyes grew cold.

He said calmly, “Elder Wei, there must be a misunderstanding! While it’s true that Rong’er and her brother may have some issues that are commonly seen in children of noble families, it shouldn’t be to the extent that it offends you. Did you perhaps hear malicious rumors from certain people?”

He hinted at someone behind Wei Yuantong.

Gu Qingluan stood not far away, holding her son’s hand and watching the commotion.

Meeting Gu Hongkang’s gaze, Gu Qingluan remained calm.

However, Gu Jinrong and his sister were about to lose their cool. They wanted to approach them when they saw them.

Gu Hongkang knew that their impulsiveness would only lead to worse consequences, so he used his authority to calm them down and returned his gaze to Wei Yuantong.

Wei Yuantong said, “No need to implicate others. In any case, I cannot do it. Elder Gu, there’s no need to say more.”

“Has Elder Wei forgotten that you owe me a favor?”

Initially, Gu Hongkang didn’t want to be so direct, but he had no other choice and had to speak frankly.

Wei Yuantong’s friendly smile faded slightly. “1 remember. You gave me a Fairy Luo Grass back then. 1 remember this favor very clearly. In that case, I can make a house call.”

Before anyone could smile, he quickly added, “But I can only treat one person. You all discuss who should be saved.”

The members of the Gu family had a sudden change in expression.

The closely huddled Gu Jinrong and his sister immediately separated, their eyes revealing a hint of caution towards each other.

After Wei Yuantong finished speaking, he secretly sent a message to Gu Xiaonan, explaining, “Good disciple, you see, 1 owe someone a favor, and I really have no other choice. However, I will make the treatment more difficult for the person 1 choose and give you some revenge! Be a good disciple, and don’t be angry with your master.”

He noticed that Gu Xiaonan showed no signs of anger on his face, which put his mind at ease.

“Well, my good disciple, I’m sure you can understand your master’s predicament.”

Gu Hongkang frowned and said, “Elder Wei, are you intentionally making things difficult for me? We’re all on the same side.”

“Are you not making it difficult for me as well? It’s a mutual situation,” Wei Yuantong replied bluntly, showing no intention of beating around the bush.

He then urged, “You all should discuss it quickly and let me know when you’ve made a decision. I won’t stay in Tianjing for long; I’ll be leaving in a couple of days.”

After saying that, he turned to find Gu Qingluan and the others.

“Madam Feng, my good disciple, do you mind if 1 bother you at your residence?”

A faint smile played at the corner of Gu Qingluan’s lips. “Of course, not.”

Wei Yuantong immediately smiled broadly. “Very well! Let’s go then!”

He couldn’t wait to see where his good disciple was staying.

Gu Qingluan nodded.

As he passed by Gu Hongkang, he suddenly called out to her, “Qingluan! Wait!”

Gu Qingluan’s steps paused slightly. “What instructions do you have, Old Master?”

“Do you have to handle things so decisively? If you don’t want to let the people from the Island of No Return give treatment to Rong’er and Yue’er, I won’t force you. But even the divine physician 1 invited from outside, you want to stop him too. Are you so ruthless that you won’t tolerate them at all?” Gu Hongkang asked with a heavy heart.

Gu Jinrong and Gu Jinyue both glared at her with displeasure.

Wei Yuantong was displeased. “This matter has nothing to do with Madam Feng. Why blame her?”

She was the mother of his good disciple, and if she was scolded because of him, his good disciple would definitely be unhappy.

Gu Hongkang took a deep breath, adjusting his emotions. His eyes, filled with a sense of world-weariness, gazed at Gu Qingluan. “Leaving a way out for oneself in life is good for future encounters. Qingluan, don’t go too far.”

Wei Yuantong furrowed his brows and was about to speak, but Gu Qingluan stopped him.

With a lazy and indifferent smile, she didn’t take the warning to heart. “If you don’t want others to know, then don’t do it in the first place.. Why don’t you go back and ask what those two have done?”
