Chapter 579: Old Master Wu!

Old Master Wu was also an unparalleled hero back in the day.

Mentioning him in Jiangnan, there was no one who didn't know him.

This man had a brain when he was young; starting from scratch and being able to build the Wu family into the number one family in Jiangnan showed that his ability was extraordinary.

But people ultimately couldn't defeat age and time. Ever since Old Master Wu retired to the second line due to poor health, the Wu family had actually started to go downhill.

But no one expected that during this period, the entire Wu family would decline so rapidly.

This caused Old Master Wu to suffer greatly.

First, starting with his second grandson, a fine young man, a proud son of heaven, suddenly contracted that kind of unspeakable strange disease.

Then it was his eldest son and his eldest grandson, who were humiliated in Jin Ling and lost all face.

Even a pair of clown-like father and son in Jin Ling dared to record videos on the internet mocking, slandering, and insulting the Wu family.

From that time on, successive blows caused his health to deteriorate day by day. But he didn't expect that it was just the beginning of a nightmare.

What he couldn't accept the most was that the Wu family's reputation had suffered a devastating disaster some time ago.

As a top family, the Wu family actually had an ambiguous and unclear relationship with the notorious Beggar Sect, and it was even reported that they secretly supported the Beggar Sect and had a kinship with them. This caused the Wu family's reputation to hit rock bottom. That time, the damage to Old Master Wu was extremely great, and it was also that time he had a stroke and fainted, not waking up for several days.

Today, he finally woke up slowly, but his physical and mental state were far worse than before, and the whole person showed a state of being terminally ill.

Wu Wu Donghai and his brothers, as well as their descendants, rushed to the family ward.

When they saw Old Master Wu at this time, everyone showed horror.

No one expected that Old Master Wu's complexion and spirit would be so poor now. The whole person looked like an old man who had entered the twilight years and could pass away at any time.

Wu Wu Donghai looked at his father at this time, and a sense of shame arose in his heart. He couldn't help but whisper, "Dad, how are you feeling?"

Old Master Wu looked at Wu Wu Donghai, his eyes full of anger.

He gasped violently a few times, then cursed unclearly, "You... you prodigal thing! Look at the woman you married, look at that damn brother-in-law of yours! He has harmed our Wu family!"

Wu Wu Donghai said with great shame, "Dad, I'm sorry, I didn't expect things to be like this..."

"Sor... sor... sorry?!" Old Master Wu stammered out these words, gritting his teeth, "Half a lifetime of my hard work ruined in your hands... you... you tell me sor... sorry... what's the use!"

As he spoke, Old Master Wu coughed violently because he was too excited.

"Cough cough... ah... cough cough..."

Wu Wu Donghai hurriedly stepped forward to help the old master soothe his chest.

Old Master Wu struggled to push him away and said coldly, "I started a business for decades and encountered countless enemies in the shopping mall. I didn't expect to be defeated by my own son in the end..."

Wu Wu Donghai's eyes were filled with tears, and his heart was also filled with shame and regret.

He had been loyal to his wife, Xue Xue Yaqin, all his life, but he didn't expect Xue Xue Yaqin to give him such a "big gift."

If her brother hadn't already been killed, he would have wanted to tear her brother into pieces!

But regret had no meaning. Otherwise, the Wu family wouldn't have reached this point today.

Old Master Wu looked at him and questioned coldly, "Where is that woman surnamed Xue now?"

Wu Wu Donghai hurriedly said, "Dad, Xue Yaqin has been locking herself in her room during this time, washing her face with tears every day."

"Washing her face with tears?!" Old Master Wu gritted his teeth, "For such a woman, you still haven't kicked her out of the house. What's the use of keeping her? Do you have to wait until the entire Wu family is ruined by her before you wake up?"

Wu Wu Donghai's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly explained, "Dad, this matter can't blame Xue Yaqin. It's her brother who didn't do human things. She and I are both victims."

"Slap!"

No one expected that the weak Old Master Wu would directly give Wu Wu Donghai a slap.

Old Master Wu was shaking with anger and said coldly, "A real man should be decisive! If you are not decisive, you will surely suffer chaos! Why was I able to build the Wu family step by step to its peak? Not only because I was more decisive than anyone else when I moved forward, but also because I was more determined than anyone else when I retreated! But look at you, not only do you lack the courage and spirit to cut off the tail to save the gecko or cut off the wrist to save the arm, but you are dragging your broken limbs and struggling. You must know that if you trap yourself, you are not only harming yourself, but the entire Wu family!"

Wu Wu Donghai said embarrassedly, "Dad, Xue Yaqin has been with me for so many years. How can I kick her out of the house at this time? If it gets out, what will others think of me, what will they think of the Wu family? How will I behave in the future?"

Old Master Wu looked at him with disdain and snorted coldly, "Do you think that if you don't kick her out, your reputation won't be damaged? The Wu family's reputation won't be damaged? The whole world knows that Xue Nanshan is your wife's brother, the whole world knows that he is your brother-in-law, and the whole world knows that his Beggar Sect is supported by you behind his back. Now that he is dead, you are still keeping that woman. The world will only scold you, Wu Wu Donghai, for being obsessed and not waking up!"

Wu Wu Donghai was shocked by the scolding.

Before this, he really hadn't thought of this level.

If it was about planning and winning thousands of miles away, he was far behind Old Master Wu.

So many things, if Old Master Wu didn't point them out, he might not have realized them in his life.

Thinking of this, he was already sweating profusely.

Only then did he realize what kind of bad influence keeping his wife at home would bring to the entire family.

So he gritted his teeth and said to Old Master Wu, "Dad, don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter well."

Old Master Wu slowly closed his eyes, sighed, and after a long time, opened his eyes and said, "Tell me, what has happened recently?"

Wu Wu Donghai hurriedly told Old Master Wu everything that had happened during this period.

After listening, Old Master Wu's face suddenly turned extremely pale.

He looked at Wu Wu Donghai and asked coldly, "A mere Mount Changbai, a mere pair of father and son digging for ginseng in Mount Changbai, made you sacrifice the lives of more than twenty people twice?!"

Wu Wu Donghai hurriedly explained, "Dad, actually, the second time, I wanted to ask the Eight Heavenly Kings to take action, but they told me they only listen to your orders. But you hadn't woken up at that time, so I had no choice but to send people over first."

Old Master Wu slapped him again. Wu Wu Donghai covered his face but didn't dare to say a word.

After slapping him, Old Master Wu said coldly, "The father and son at the foot of Mount Changbai are living people. What is the difference between snatching them back today, snatching them back next week, and snatching them back next month?"

"Could it be that if you don't snatch them back today, they will die next week? If they were so easy to die, the opponent wouldn't have sent so many people to guard them in that godforsaken place of Mount Changbai."

"Since that's the case, what are you, an unpromising thing, in such a hurry for?" ===== CHAPTER 580 =====
