Chapter 24 Blood Oath and Tears



"stop!"

Wu Tian suddenly roared, his voice as loud as thunder, and then struck out with a palm, carrying a power that could shake the heavens and the earth.

It charged toward the two of them with unstoppable force, like a raging storm.

"boom!"

A deep, resounding bang shook the air, and Sun Zhendong and the two men, one fat and one thin, were thrown dozens of meters away like kites with broken strings.

Although Wu Tian's abilities were enough to destroy the world, compared to the two of them, the distance between them was like an insurmountable gap.

He was powerless to change the situation and could only watch helplessly as Sun Zhendong was knocked away.

Without a second thought, he flashed to Sun Zhendong's side. Grabbing the man's wrist, he saw that the injuries were shocking, and the man's life force was almost gone.

However, Wu Tian was not only exceptionally skilled in martial arts, but also possessed unparalleled medical expertise throughout history.

He acted swiftly, using his internal energy to protect Sun Zhendong's heart meridian, trying to save Sun Zhendong's life.

Sun Zhendong mustered his last bit of strength, a smug look in his smile, and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, "It's no use. Even if you saved me, I won't tell."

Wu Tian's eyes widened in anger, his voice as cold as a knife: "Sun Zhendong, you have broken your promise. Aren't you afraid that I will massacre the Sun family?"

At this moment, he was furious, as if he wanted to tear the entire Jinxiu Manor and the air within it to shreds.

What is despair?

When hope is within reach, only to vanish in an instant, the profound sense of loss is colder than the abyss.

Sun Zhendong smiled bitterly, his eyes revealing endless helplessness. "I have no choice. If I told you, not a single member of the Sun family would survive. The power behind them is too great. Anyone who has betrayed them will not escape their revenge."

Enraged, Wu Tian grabbed Sun Zhendong and roared, "Speak! Who is it?"

Sun Zhendong shook his head, his laughter bitter. "I can't say. Hahahaha, even if you kill me and destroy my Sun family, so what? You'll never... know the real culprit who wiped out your family."

"Go to hell!"

Wu Tian roared in fury and threw a punch, filled with endless anger and resentment, which struck Sun Zhendong in the chest.

In an instant, blood gushed out, and Sun Zhendong's life was extinguished by Wu Tian's furious attack.

Staring at Sun Zhendong's cold corpse, Wu Tian's chest heaved violently.

Although Sun Zhendong was dead, the flames of anger in his heart burned like wildfire, showing no signs of abating.

Jin Lingyun arrived gracefully, her warm little hands gently covering Wu Tian's fist, her tone soft and gentle as a spring breeze, "Junior brother, there's no need to be discouraged, I believe the truth will eventually come to light."

Wu Tian subtly withdrew his hand from hers, his eyes flashing with a resolute light, and replied softly, "I understand. No matter how bumpy the road ahead may be, and no matter who the real culprit is, I will forge ahead until I bring the real culprit to an end."

Although Sun Zhendong did not explicitly name the culprit, his words suggest that a shocking secret must be hidden behind the downfall of the Wu family.

At this moment, his belief became even stronger, and he vowed to dispel the fog and reveal the truth to the world.

As Wu Tian gradually withdrew his hand, Jin Lingyun couldn't help but feel a sense of loss.

She had hoped to use this opportunity to get closer to him, but she hadn't expected Wu Tian to be so determined.

But she quickly composed herself and asked softly, "What are your plans for the remnants of the Sun family? If you insist on eliminating them, I am willing to use the power of the family to bring them to justice, no matter where they flee to."

Wu Tian lowered his head, looking intently at Jin Lingyun, and said in a calm tone, "Since Senior Sister is so compassionate, how can I let you bear the name of killing because of me?"

After saying this, he took a deep breath, resolutely turned around, and embarked on his journey to leave Jinxiu Manor.

Wu Tian's departing figure appeared lonely and desolate, causing a sense of sorrow to rise in Jin Lingyun's heart.

She didn't want Wu Tian to be consumed by hatred, but she also feared that she would miss the opportunity to walk alongside him.

Finally, she gritted her teeth and made her final decision.

She stared at the corpses of the fat man and the thin man beside her and ordered her attendants, "Send these two corpses to Hong Jiu and tell him that Wu Tian is my junior brother, Jin Lingyun's junior brother. If he dares to make any further moves, I will take his head."

After giving the order, she did not hesitate to set off to chase after Wu Tian.

Guanyunju Village, Linhai City.

As Wu Tianan stepped into view, Xia Xue, like a willow catkin in the spring breeze, leaped lightly and hurriedly nestled into his strong embrace.

She lightly clenched her fist, releasing a thousand unspoken words, her eyes shimmering with endless worry and reproach, "How could you bear to leave me alone? Do you know how worried I was about you here?"

Last night was the most restful night's sleep she had had in eight years. When she woke up, it was already noon.

When she woke up, she couldn't find Wu Tian anywhere and searched for him frantically.

However, after searching every corner, she could not find Wu Tian. It was only when the bodyguard sent by Jin Lingyun informed her that Wu Tian had already gone to the Sun family.

She wanted to go to the Sun family immediately to fight alongside Wu Tian, ​​but the bodyguards vehemently opposed her.

She could only stay in Guanyun Residence, filled with anxiety, each day feeling like an eternity.

Seeing Wu Tian safely returned, she was overwhelmed with emotion, and tears streamed down her face.

It is blame, but also worry; it is dissatisfaction, but also deep affection.

Wu Tian wrapped his arms around her gently, patted her back softly, and whispered, "Xiao Xue, it was indeed my fault, but... you really shouldn't have gone to that kind of dangerous place."

He knew full well that he showed no mercy to his enemies and that his methods might be cruel.

Xia Xue had suffered physical and mental setbacks over the years, and I couldn't bear to disturb her any further, so I let her sleep soundly and went to the Sun family alone.

Xia Xue understood Wu Tian's decision perfectly; although she felt some blame, she understood him even more.

With tears in her eyes, she spoke firmly, "I understand what you're doing, but we are husband and wife. No matter the weather, whether it's wind, frost, rain, snow, or clear skies, we should walk side by side. Even if we die, we should die together."

Before she could finish speaking, Wu Tian gently pressed his finger against her cherry lips, his tone gentle yet firm, "Don't say such things again. With me here, I will never allow anyone to hurt you, let alone die."

Upon hearing this, Xia Xue nodded firmly. Although this promise was not sweet talk, it was the most solid support, causing warm ripples to spread across her heart.

The two embraced tightly, their love unspoken, as deep as the sea.

At this moment, Jin Lingyun, as an observer, felt a mix of emotions, including envy, loneliness, and embarrassment.

Just then, her phone beeped. She looked at Xia Xue intently and said in a low voice, "Miss Xia Xue, there's something I have to tell you. Your grandmother has been kicked out of the Xia family."
