Immortal Reincarnation Tribulation

Chapter 251 I'll Beat You to Death

Seeing this, Tian Wu quickly stepped forward, but just as she was about to reach out to help the old man, she suddenly froze. Her face flushed red, and she turned around and glared at Du Fan fiercely, because both of her arms had been dislocated by Du Fan.

Du Fan felt a little awkward. Even though the old man and Tian Wu were not related by blood, the warm and affectionate way they looked at each other made it clear to anyone who wasn't blind that they had a very good relationship.

Du Fan had some guesses in his mind. Usually, the two of them had a relationship similar to that of grandfather and grandson, but he had bullied the old man's junior on his own turf.

After touching his nose, Du Fan took the initiative to step forward. Ignoring Tian Wu's unfriendly expression, he swiftly stretched out his hands and instantly reattached the two arms of the gang leader, Tian.

"Thank you!" Tian Wu said reluctantly, her cheeks slightly flushed, after moving her a little sore and numb arms.

"Miss Tian, ​​you're too kind. It's what I should do," Du Fan said with a chuckle, shamelessly.

Tian Wu rolled her eyes at Du Fan, showing no intention of replying. Instead, she gently raised her hand to support the gray-robed old man beside her, and said with a hint of reproach, "Grandpa Wu, you're not feeling well, what are you doing here?"

Finally, the woman stomped her foot, her eyes reddening, and bit her lip, saying, "Grandpa Wu, I... I'm really useless. I lost to this person just now, and the stronghold was lost. Please punish me."

The old man in gray glanced at Tian Wu with doting eyes, nodded to her with a smile, indicating that she didn't need to worry, before turning his gaze to Du Fan and staring at him with a scrutinizing look for a long time.

"Young lady, I, this old man, am not here to punish you, but to speak a word of justice." The old man surnamed Wu withdrew his gaze, his expression solemn, and said in a deep voice.

"Grandpa Wu, please speak."

Tian Wu felt a chill run down her spine. She had rarely seen the old man so serious before. However, she was slightly worried. Could it be that Grandpa Wu wanted to renege on his promise? If so, wouldn't that break the rules of the martial arts world? How would the Green Forest Village maintain its standing in the martial arts world in the future?

"Tian Wu, we people of the martial world value our promises the most. If you gamble, you must accept the consequences. Before the duel, you promised this young man that if you lost, you would be at his mercy. How can you go back on your word now? I'm so angry!"

"I'm going to teach you a lesson for your dead grandfather and your father, you good-for-nothing brat! I'll beat you to death!" The old man suddenly jumped up, broke free from Tian Wu's hands, and with a low roar, raised his cane to strike the woman.

"Huh?" Du Fan was taken aback, as were the bandits around him. The scene on stage had reversed too suddenly. What was this old guy up to...?

Seeing the cane fall heavily, Tian Wu was startled and instinctively tried to dodge. However, after seeing the old man's frail body, she couldn't bear it and stood still, taking the blow head-on.

"Ah... Grandpa Wu, you really have the heart to hit me!" Tian Wu cried out in pain, tears streaming down her face.

"I'll beat you to death, you treacherous, faithless brat!" The old man roared with grief and indignation, his cane flashing through the air like a blur, and with a whooshing sound, he lashed out at Tian Wu with astonishing force.

The two bandits standing nearby narrowed their eyes, wanting to step forward and stop them, but not daring to.

This old man held a very high seniority in the Green Forest Stronghold. He was a Yuanxun who had followed the first leader in conquering the land. In the eyes of these bandits, he was a legendary figure with extremely high prestige, and the two juniors dared not act rashly.

"what……"

A piercing scream escaped Tian Wu's lips. The old man had struck her shoulder hard with his cane, tearing her clothes and revealing a patch of soft, delicate, snow-white skin beneath.

However, on this alluring, snow-white, and soft surface, there was a bloody mark, a shocking sight, left by the old man's blow with a stick...

"What is this old guy doing? It looks like he really wants to kill Tian Wu. Is he getting senile? No, it's a ruse..." Du Fan frowned as he witnessed this scene, but after a moment's thought, he understood the old man's intention.

"His cunning is understandable, but it's truly unbelievable that he can display such skill with his frail body." After a moment, Du Fan shook his head and smiled wryly.

"Grandpa Wu, please stop! Wu'er is going to die in your hands..." Tian Wu cried out, holding her head in her hands, looking very aggrieved.

"I'll teach you to go back on your word! I'll teach you to break your promises lightly! Today I'm going to beat you to death!"

The old man suddenly pushed off the ground with both legs and jumped half a meter high. He gripped his stick with both hands and used the momentum to smash it down on Tian Wu's head.

"Hmph! You're really putting on a show. If I don't make a move, let's see how you, old man, get out of this mess. Will you back down? Or will you really fight me?" Du Fan thought to himself, somewhat annoyed and with a hint of malice.

However, despite his thoughts, he still had to settle in this mountain stronghold, so he didn't want to completely ruin the situation.

He sighed, his body swayed, and he shot out in an instant, appearing beside Tian Wu. With a single grab in the air, he caught the old man's cane.

"Old man, let's talk this out, why do you have to be like this?" Du Fan said hastily, a hint of anxiety on his face.

"Young man, don't worry about it. Today, this old man is going to teach this good-for-nothing brat a lesson!" The old man seemed to be deeply into his role. His expression at this moment was completely genuine, and he truly looked like a heartbroken and indignant person who was disappointed in his daughter.

"Get out of my way! I don't need your help. You want me to marry you? Dream on!" Tian Wu pushed Du Fan away, her cheeks flushed, but her eyes were sharp as she stared at him stubbornly.

"Grandpa Wu, just kill me already, Wu'er doesn't want to live anymore!" Tian Wu took a big step and stood prettily in front of the old man. Suddenly, she looked up, closed her eyes, and two lines of clear tears flowed down her cheeks.

Upon seeing this, the old man's eyes widened, and veins bulged on his forehead, as if he were truly enraged.

"You brat! I'll hit you... Pfft..." The old man swung his cane, about to smash it down, when suddenly he spat out a mouthful of blood with a "pfft," his eyes rolled back, and he fell straight backward.

"Is this... real or fake?" Du Fan was completely stunned. This scene didn't look fake at all.

Du Fan had no idea that the old man was truly enraged this time, but not because of Tian Wu's treacherous words. In the old man's eyes, Tian Wu was too immature. If she married the other party, the stronghold would barely be lost. Otherwise, the entire stronghold would truly fall into the hands of outsiders.

The old man even thought further ahead: no matter how skilled Tian Wu was in martial arts, she was still a woman, and as a woman, she would eventually have to get married.

He had thought about it and discussed it with several other elders. They decided to keep the benefits within the family and select a young hero from the younger generation of the Green Forest Village to arrange a marriage between the two of them, thus eliminating any future troubles for the Green Forest Village.

To the dismay of the old men, although Tian Wu treated her brothers extremely well, there was no one she could win her heart. Of course, none of the tough, unyielding bandits dared to marry this Boss Tian…

If Tian Wu gets married, she will become someone else's wife, and they might even have to send the entire mountain village, which generations of their family have worked so hard to build, as her dowry. This matter has always been a worry for the old man.

But this young man named Li Daoming is different. He's a typical live-in son-in-law. To put it bluntly, it's the other party who's marrying into the family, not Tian Wu who's marrying out. The Green Forest Village remains the Green Forest Village. No matter how you look at it, this is a profitable deal...

Moreover, this young man is young and highly skilled in martial arts, a veritable young hero. Although his appearance is quite ordinary, it is not important to these bandits who live on the edge of life; they can be completely ignored.

If everyone gets along well in the future, under the wise leadership of this couple, it will be just around the corner for Green Forest Village to flourish. But why doesn't that brat Tian Wu understand?

If you had won, I, the old man, would have had nothing to say. But you clearly lost, yet you keep saying you accept your defeat wholeheartedly and are willing to let him do whatever he wants with you. Since that's the case, and he's already asked, why don't you marry him? No! I mean, take him as your wife!

The old man was filled with grief and indignation, wailing silently until finally his head lolled to the side and he fainted from anger.

"Grandpa Wu!" A red shadow flashed, and Tian Wu instantly appeared beside the old man, hugging him tightly. At this moment, the old man's face was pale and bloodless, obviously quite frightened, and he was extremely regretful about what had just happened.

"Your Excellency is temporarily staying at my Green Forest Stronghold. The matter of succeeding as the leader of the stronghold will be discussed tomorrow. You... have no objections, right?" Tian Wu turned around, looked at Du Fan, her eyes filled with complex emotions, and said with forced composure.

"No problem, quickly fetch a doctor for Grandpa Wu." Du Fan nodded generously.

"You're not calling me Grandpa Wu!" Tian Wu suddenly shouted sharply, as if she had been stepped on a cat's tail.
