Chapter 95 What!?! She's a girl?!

  After dinner, the sky had already darkened, and the sky was dominated by a fiery red color. Du Fei and Zu Ji Tian were walking leisurely on the road at this time, and they agreed to go to the riverbank to take a bath. In no time, the two of them arrived at the riverbank, and after getting everything ready, they started playing happily in the water. "Ah, it's so refreshing! I haven't taken a bath for several days, and now it's really comfortable!" Du Fei said with a smile as he emerged from the water. "How is your injury recovering?" Zu Ji Tian asked with a smile. "Don't worry, it's nothing. This little injury doesn't count as anything to me." Du Fei smiled back at Zu Ji Tian. "Be careful," Zu Ji Tian suddenly shouted. Hearing Zu Ji Tian's shout, Du Fei quickly turned his head and only heard the sound of rushing wind passing by his ear, followed by a loud "thud". Du Fei turned around and saw that the water surface had rippled, and he glared angrily at the surroundings, shouting: "Which bastard dares to sneak up on me? Get out of here!" However, after looking around, Du Fei still didn't find any suspicious places. Suddenly, another gust of wind passed by, and this time Du Fei clearly saw what was attacking him - a small stone. Du Fei dodged the stone's attack again and sent a gust of wind blades towards the direction where the stone came from. A loud "bang" sound followed, and only then did they see that a thick tree branch had been knocked to the ground by Du Fei's wind blade, but there was no sign of anyone around. At this time, Du Fei and Zu Ji Tian were back-to-back, leaning against each other. "It's strange, there are so few people around, how can someone still sneak up on us?" Du Fei asked. "I think this is aimed at you," Zu Ji Tian said. "Aimed at me? Why?" Du Fei asked in confusion.

  "The opponent's attacks were all aimed at you, it's obvious," said Zujitian. "Could it be Luo Lie and his people?" asked Du Fei. "I'm not too sure either. I think their chances are slim, the old master is nearby, I don't think they have that much guts." said Zujitian. "Be careful, here comes another one!" Du Fei suddenly separated from Zujitian, at this time dozens of stones came flying in, each with incredible speed, all heading straight for Du Fei's position. Du Fei also made a swift jump, bursting out of the water and doing a somersault in mid-air to deflect the incoming stones. After landing back in the water, Du Fei quickly formed hand seals. The water around him rapidly suspended in mid-air, condensing into visible droplets. "Rain Bullet!" Du Fei shouted loudly. The condensed water droplets shot out like bullets in all directions, hitting the surrounding trees with countless holes. A scream echoed through the air, and Du Fei also leapt up, rushing towards the source of the sound. "Wind Blade." Du Fei launched multiple wind blades at the location of the scream. Several loud crashes were heard. Suddenly, a figure burst into the air, and Du Fei saw that it was none other than the old woman's grandson, the beautiful young man, who looked somewhat flustered at this moment.

  "Little kid, it's you!" Du Fei glared at the young boy with a fierce expression. The boy also looked somewhat guilty when he saw Du Fei's face. Just as he was about to speak, Du Fei launched an attack and grabbed the boy's chest. The two of them fell into the river together, making a loud splash. Zujitian also witnessed the scene and quickly swam towards where Du Fei and the boy had fallen. At this time, the boy was being held by Du Fei with one hand and was struggling nonstop: "You scoundrel, let me go!" "Little kid, I think you're looking for death. Tell me, why did you sneak up on us?" Du Fei glared at the boy fiercely, still holding onto his clothes. However, the boy completely ignored Du Fei's questioning and continued to hit Du Fei's hands that were grabbing his clothes, shouting: "You scoundrel, let go quickly, or I'll call my grandma!" "Go ahead and call, who cares? Quickly tell me, why did you sneak up on us?" Du Fei's anger grew even more intense. "Little Jin, I think you should put him down first before talking." Zujitian arrived beside Du Fei and said.

  "You dare to kick me again!" Du Fei shouted, the young boy was being held by Du Fei and could only kick him with his legs, Du Fei was also extremely angry, he raised his hands and lifted the boy up, then violently pressed him into the water. The boy was choked by Du Fei for a few moments, his face twisted in pain as he closed his eyes and gasped for air.

  "Speak quickly, or I'll do it again!" Du Fei shouted, holding the boy above the water. The boy took a deep breath, his face showing a hint of grievance, his eyes starting to redden, but Du Fei didn't care, still glaring at him.

  "Xiao Jin, stop this, don't ruin everyone's harmony," Zujitian said, trying to calm Du Fei down. After all, he knew Du Fei's temper, if things went wrong, Du Fei might really kill the boy, and that would be disastrous for everyone.

  Just as Du Fei and Zujitian were talking, the boy saw an opportunity and kicked Du Fei in the face again. Du Fei felt a surge of pain and immediately released his grip on the boy's hands, covering his face with his own hands. The boy fell into the water, and Du Fei was furious, rushing towards him.

  Zujitian tried to intervene, but just as he did, Du Fei emerged from the water, holding the boy in a tight lock. The boy was now suspended in mid-air, his head bowed down in tears.

  "Let go," the boy said, crying.

  "This guy is so soft?" Du Fei wondered aloud, Zujitian's eyes widened in surprise as he shouted: "Xiao Jin, let him go, he's a girl!"

  Du Fei was shocked by Zujitian's words and quickly released his grip on the boy's chest.

  "What, you say he's a girl?" Du Fei stared at Zu Ji Tian in shock, looking at the young man in his arms. The young man had long hair that was disheveled and fell on his shoulders, and although he looked a bit disheveled, his absolutely beautiful face was evident to both of them. It was clear at a glance that he was a girl. The girl didn't say anything, she just kept trembling, her body shaking uncontrollably, accompanied by occasional sobbing sounds. Du Fei and Zu Ji Tian were both stunned, unsure of what to do.

  "Xiao Jin, let go quickly, don't make it difficult for this young lady anymore." Zu Ji Tian said in a panic. Du Fei also reacted quickly to Zu Ji Tian's shout and immediately released his arm from the girl's body. Just as the girl was released, she suddenly pushed Du Fei with great force, causing him to stumble backward several steps before regaining his balance. As he steadied himself, he looked in the direction of the girl, who had already burst into loud sobs, running and crying at the same time. In a short while, she disappeared from their sight. Zu Ji Tian and Du Fei exchanged an awkward glance.

  "Heh heh." Du Fei chuckled twice and asked, "What's going on now? That guy is a girl."

  "This... I don't know what to do either?" Zu Ji Tian also looked at Du Fei with a bitter expression. Seeing that Du Fei didn't speak, Zu Ji Tian continued: "A girl's most precious thing is her chastity, but today's events are even more unbearable than killing her, we have carelessly tarnished her."

  "Nonsense, who...who took advantage of her? That can only be blamed on herself. Did we provoke her or was it she who came to provoke us? How would I know she's a woman disguised as a man?" Du Fei said calmly.

  "Alas, although we are in the right, her grandmother is not someone you haven't met before. If she really favors her granddaughter, neither of us will have a good outcome." Zujitian sighed.

  "So you're saying we're doomed now? Then give me a solution on what to do next." Du Fei looked at Zu Ji Tian with a bitter expression. Zu Ji Tian was also deep in thought, supporting his chin with one hand and not speaking a word.

  "It's none of your business, let him handle it, we should just make a run for it now. What do you think?" Du Fei looked at Zu Ji Tian.

  "What's this?" Zujitian heard Du Fei's words and began to ponder again.

  Just as the two were pondering, a shocking aura suddenly rushed towards the river pond where they were standing, and the water on the surface couldn't help but churn up waves. The terrified duo's foreheads were covered in cold sweat. Just as they came to their senses, something in the river suddenly surged up, forming several tens of meters high giant waves, all crashing towards the position where the two were standing, and the two were also caught off guard by the sudden giant waves.

  "Ah, ah!" The two were struck by a huge wave and thrown into the air several meters high, screaming non-stop. However, before they could calm down, two bolts of lightning with power rivaling thunder shot towards their position.

  Just as the two were terrified by the lightning, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them, and with a swift swing of his arm, the incoming lightning was deflected to a nearby hill. A series of deafening roars followed, and the hill that was struck by lightning instantly collapsed. Du Fei and Zu Ji Tian stared blankly at the hill that had been shattered by the lightning, swallowing hard, their faces pale with fear, clearly shaken by the incredibly powerful lightning. They then looked at the person standing in front of them, who turned out to be the crazy old beggar.

  "Arrogant Snow, what are you doing?" The old beggar looked at the person in front of him with a puzzled expression. It was none other than the old woman. At this moment, the old woman's eyes were red and her face was filled with anger as she glared at Du Fei and Zu Ji Tian. Only when she saw the old beggar blocking their way did she calm down slightly.

  "Old man, get out of the way, I'm going to kill these two little brats." The old woman said angrily.

  "What's going on here? What have these two done to provoke you?" the old beggar asked, then turned his head and softly asked Zujitians: "Hey, I'm saying that you two kids must have done something wrong, why did she get so angry?" Zujitians and Dufei were also confused by the old beggar's words, but they immediately thought of why the old woman was angry. Just as they were about to speak, they were interrupted by the old woman: "Just now I was resting in the house, I saw Yu Heng rushing in with tears on his face, his whole body wet and covered in mud. I asked him what happened but he wouldn't say anything. I thought he must have been bullied, so I rushed to the riverbank in anger, and that's when everything happened. Considering your face, old sir, I won't kill you for now. If you can't give me a reasonable explanation later, don't blame me for being merciless." As the old woman spoke, her eyes flashed with a fierce light again, making Dufei and Zujitians break out in cold sweat.

  "Right, you tell me what's going on?" The old beggar also looked at Du Fei and Zu Ji Tian with a puzzled face.

  "Never mind, you'd better ask him," Du Fei said after a pause, "I'm not good at talking, and if I say something wrong, I'm afraid that old lady will get me killed." As he spoke, Du Fei pointed to Zu Ji Tian. The crowd also cast their eyes on Zu Ji Tian. Seeing the looks of the crowd, Zu Ji Tian let out a long sigh and began to recount what had happened earlier...

  "What did you say, his grandson is a girl?" The old beggar was also surprised after hearing Zujitian's words and asked the old woman: "Is your grandson really a girl?"

  It's clear that the old woman also listened to Zujitian's words and knew that her grandson was in the wrong first, so now she no longer had the previous anger, but instead showed a hint of embarrassment. Facing the old beggar's question, the old woman replied with some difficulty: "En."

  "Since she's a girl, why didn't you tell us about it earlier? If you had told us beforehand, this absurd misunderstanding wouldn't have happened today. Isn't that right?" The old beggar said, glancing at Zujitianshen and Du Fei, winking at the two of them. Just as Du Fei was about to say something, he was stopped by Zujitianshen, who gave him a look indicating for him to be quiet. Du Fei immediately shut his mouth and didn't speak again, watching the two old men talk.

  "I didn't think there would be a situation like today, I was thinking of the safety of my grandson, so I let him disguise himself as a girl." The old woman said.

  "You should have told me beforehand, at least let me know, if you had made it clear to me earlier I would have taken precautions for them too. You're really getting more and more muddled with age." The old beggar spoke as he lightly tapped the old woman's forehead, causing Du Fei and Zu Ji Tian who were standing aside to exchange a glance with narrowed eyes, their faces revealing an unbelievable expression.

  "This sentence is well said, isn't it? Ignorance is no excuse, right? It's just that this guy beat me up once. I think, why don't you just give this little devil a few hits, and consider it as taking revenge for your granddaughter, and we'll just call it even? What do you say?" The old beggar spoke while grabbing Du Fei again, just like he was grabbing a small cat. Du Fei also cursed loudly: "Old mixed hair, what are you doing? Let go quickly." But the crowd didn't pay any attention to Du Fei at all.

  "Fine, I was also furious at the time and didn't bother to argue with these two juniors. You two little devils just apologize to my granddaughter properly, especially you, you little scoundrel, you're the most detestable one. If you don't make my granddaughter happy, I'll make sure you pay for it, you won't have a good time, at most you'll suffer some physical pain." The old woman said while pointing at Du Fei who was being suspended in mid-air by the old beggar. Du Fei looked at everyone with dissatisfaction and just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted again by the old beggar, "Alright, it's settled then. As long as your granddaughter is fine, you'll just have to suffer a bit, no complaining allowed." The old beggar said to Du Fei. Actually, this was also the old beggar's expedient measure, what could he do? After all, it's hard to deal with women and petty people.

  Actually, Du Fei also took into account that she was a girl and had suffered injustice on his own body. Du Fei thought to himself with extreme regret, let alone the fact that he wasn't as strong as her. Du Fei couldn't help but sigh: "I'm really an unfortunate child."

  A few people's worth of work had arrived at the wooden house, and the old woman was the first to arrive at the girl's room. She lightly knocked on the door and said: "Yu Heng, are you okay? Open the door quickly, it's Grandma." The old woman waited outside the door for a while without hearing any movement inside, and couldn't help but feel worried. She increased her knocking strength and shouted: "Yu Heng, hurry up and open the door! Don't worry Grandma to death, I'm really worried about you!"

  "She wouldn't have thought of killing herself, would she?" Du Fei said in a low voice to Lao Qi Tian.

  "You little brat, are you tired of living? If she hears you, it's a wonder if you won't be killed. Isn't the lesson from just now enough for you?" The old beggar scolded angrily.

  "Look at you, I was just joking." Du Fei said with a displeased face.

  The old woman knocked on the door for half a day before it was finally opened, and at this time, only the girl who had been repaired by Du Fei and Zu Ji Tian earlier appeared in front of everyone with tears on her face, looking a bit haggard. As soon as she opened the door and saw Du Fei and Zu Ji Tian outside, she immediately rushed back to the door, just like seeing an enemy. Fortunately, the old woman reacted quickly and blocked the wooden door that was about to be closed.

  "Yu Heng, don't be sad anymore, those two rascals have already been scolded by grandma. You don't need to be upset anymore, just look at his appearance." The old woman said as she grabbed Du Fei's neck and lifted him up like a small cat, leaving Du Fei helpless and hanging his head in shame. "If you're still not satisfied, grandma will continue to help you teach him a lesson until you're satisfied. How about that?" the old woman asked anxiously.

  However, no matter how the old woman said it, the girl still refused to answer her. She just lowered her head and remained silent. The old woman's mood became even more urgent at this time, saying: "Then you tell me how to fix this little rascal."

  The girl remained silent for half a day before finally speaking up, saying that if she hadn't said anything, it would have been fine, but now that she has spoken, it's simply frightening others. The girl said: "I want to cut off his hands." Everyone present gasped in shock at the girl's words. Especially Du Fei, who was so enraged by the girl's words that he wanted to speak up but couldn't, as if his tongue had been tied by the old woman. He could only struggle desperately, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free from the old woman's control. The old woman was also taken aback, but quickly regained her composure and said: "Alright, let's do it your way. As long as my dear granddaughter is happy, I won't be a bad person." The old woman then made a dramatic gesture of raising a knife, although there was no actual knife, just the shape of one formed by her hand, surrounded by an aura of electricity. Just as she was about to strike Du Fei's wrist, the girl shouted: "Stop! I didn't really mean to cut off his hands, it was just a figure of speech." Everyone present let out a sigh of relief upon hearing the girl's words, and Du Fei even smiled as if he had narrowly escaped death. The old woman immediately spoke up: "Haha, I knew my dear granddaughter wasn't cruel-hearted. Since you've already spoken up, I'll spare him. Besides, I've already beaten him to a pulp earlier." Du Fei nodded vigorously in agreement upon hearing the old woman's words.

  "No, it can't be that easy for him. He may have escaped death, but he won't escape punishment. I'll make sure to teach him a lesson." The girl had already returned to her normal self, and it seemed like the previous incident was no longer on her mind. Du Fei's face contorted in distress upon hearing the girl's words.

  "Alright, you'd better tell me what kind of punishment you want to give him!" The old woman said with a smile. Seeing her granddaughter had returned to her usual self, the old woman couldn't help but laugh with joy.

  "I haven't thought it through yet, I need to think carefully." The girl said, rolling her eyes.

  "It's also that, you'd better think about how to punish them. I see the sky is getting dark now, let's go to sleep, what do you think?" The old woman asked the girl.

  "But he can't, it's all his fault that I'm the most miserable. Tonight, you hang him on the tree branch outside. Otherwise, I won't care about you." The girl pouted and looked at Du Fei. After hearing this, Du Fei was like a deflated balloon, looking at Lao Qi and Zu Ji Tian with a pitiful expression, as if saying "Why me again?" The old woman had no choice but to follow the girl's instructions, tying Du Fei up with five big knots and hanging him on the tree branch. At this time, all of Du Fei's energy was sealed by the old woman, and no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't escape the thick rope. He could only hang there in distress, "enjoying" the slow and long night. The girl saw that Du Fei had been hung on the tree branch and returned to her room with satisfaction to rest.

  "Hey, Little Jin, are you okay?" Zujitian asked quietly as he sneaked out of the house.

  Du Fei heard Zu Ji Tian's voice and also lifted his spirits: "Ah, it's you little kid, why haven't you called out yet?"

  "I'm coming out to accompany you, I also have a share in today's matter, but the blame is all borne by you alone, brother, I feel uneasy about it, now I'm coming out to keep you company." Zong Ji Tian said with a hint of apology.

  "Haha, I knew you'd be loyal. Don't worry about me, I'm fine now." Du Fei also laughed and said.

  "Haha, two little ghosts staying up late at night chatting here, aren't you afraid that the old lady will come out and catch you?" At this time, a burst of laughter came, it was the old beggar.

  "Nice to meet you, senior." Zu Ji Tian bowed his hands towards the old beggar's position and Du Fei shouted: "Hey, I'm telling you, old ghost, no one called you, what are you asking us for?"

  "Haha, I'm an old beggar who has always slept on the ground with the night wind as my blanket. Seeing the deep affection between you two little devils, I've come out to keep you company. What? Don't welcome me?" The old beggar asked.

  "You old madman, suit yourself." Du Fei cursed ill-temperedly. He paused and asked: "Hey, what's the relationship between you and that old woman? Is she your lover?"

  "Haha, kid, don't talk nonsense. If she hears you, I'm afraid you'll be in trouble again." The old beggar said with a smile.

  "You still don't admit it, it's definitely true." Du Fei said suspiciously.

  "Hahaha, say whatever you want, I'm going to sleep. You'll be in trouble again when I wake up in the morning." The old beggar said, ignoring Du Fei and falling asleep with his head down. The others also stopped talking and fell asleep with their heads down. Du Fei could fall asleep anywhere, even bound up, and soon began snoring...
