Chapter 1293: Chapter 1293
"Heh, you said it yourself, that was before."
Moli, dressed in a wedding gown, walked over to Zhou Haotian, took his arm, and looked disdainfully at Zhou Dafu: "You used to be the young master of the Zhou Family, but now you’re just a cripple in a wheelchair. What right do you have to say these things to me?"
"Hey, I really don’t have the right."
Zhou Dafu sighed and coldly looked at Mo Zhanlu: "Old Master Mo, back then I wanted to annul the engagement with Moli, but you shamelessly forced this woman onto me. Don’t you have anything to say about it now?"
"Zhou Dafu, stop trying to put yourself on a pedestal."
Mo Zhanlu sneered coldly, looking down on Zhou Dafu: "I never made Moli stick to you. You were in love voluntarily, and the engagement is old news. Is there any point in bringing it up now?"
"Fine, fine, I’ve seen shameless people, but I’ve never seen someone as shameless as you."
Zhou Dafu laughed out of anger, gritting his teeth: "So you’re saying you agree to annul the engagement between me and Moli, right?"
"That’s right! My granddaughter is about to marry Haotian, so your engagement is naturally void."
Mo Zhanlu nodded indifferently: "For a cripple like you, there’s no need for an explanation, but I’ll announce it here and now—Moli and Zhou Dafu’s engagement is officially annulled."
Zhou Dafu nodded with satisfaction. No matter what, he’s finally drawn a line with Moli.
After Zhou Dafu spoke, Zhou Xianyi, with a gloomy face, gritted his teeth and called out.
In the crowd, Madam Zhou’s face changed slightly, instinctively stepping back, not wanting to be involved with the three of them.
"Do you think hiding can erase the fact that we’re married?"
Zhou Xianyi coldly looked at Wang Zhiling.
"I... ahem, I wasn’t hiding from you."
Seeing everyone looking at her, Wang Zhiling braced herself and stepped forward: "We haven’t been related for a long time. What do you want?"
"So it’s been a long time, huh."
Zhou Xianyi gripped the wheelchair’s armrests, gritting his teeth: "So you plan on divorcing me?"
"People of the Jianghu don’t care about formalities. We never even got a marriage certificate. Now, I’ll cut ties with you and break off our relationship entirely."
Fearing Zhou Xianyi would cling to her, Wang Zhiling tore off a piece of her skirt to decisively state her position.
"Husband and wife are like birds of a forest, and when disaster strikes, they fly apart."
Zhou Xianyi laughed loudly, his tone then turning cold: "I don’t blame you for cutting ties with me, but why won’t you spare my daughter?"
"Zhou Xianyi, listen up. Xiaoqian is my daughter, and from now on, she has nothing to do with you, a cripple."
Wang Zhiling quickly announced, as Zhou Xiaoqian was her key to wealth and prosperity, and she couldn’t let her go.
"Xiaoqian is my flesh and blood; this can’t be up to you."
Zhou Xianyi laughed coldly, "Since you’ve decided to cut ties, there shall be no affection left between us."
"Who would want to be associated with someone like you? Look at your family of three cripples; you could go begging together."
Wang Zhiling sneered with a face full of disgust.
"Since the ties are clear, let’s settle our grudges."
Zhou Dafu ignored Wang Zhiling and looked up at Zhou Xianyi: "Our family of three is right here. Today, we’ll eliminate the rebellious Zhou family members, Zhou Xianyi and Zhou Haotian, to avenge ourselves. Others had better stay aside."
Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter, thinking that a family of three cripples causing trouble was sheer suicide.
Zhou Xianyi laughed so hard he bent forward and backward, "Just the three of you cripples want revenge? Ridiculous!"
"Father, no need for talk, let me just finish them off?"
Zhou Haotian stretched his muscles, full of murderous intent.
"Brother Zhou, today is your big wedding day. Let me handle this sort of physical work for you."
At that moment, Ma Gangqiang suddenly stepped forward.
Zhou Dafu squinted his eyes, looking at Ma Gangqiang with disgust: "You used to be Brother Ming’s underling, and now you’re going to take action against me. Is this how you repay Brother Ming?"
"Tang Ming, that dead guy, was indeed powerful. When he was alive, my Ma Family had to bow to him." Ma Gangqiang laughed, coldly glaring at Zhou Dafu: "But he’s dead now. Back then, with Tang Ming backing you, a waste from the Zhou family dared to parade in front of the direct lineage disciple of the prestigious Martial Arts Family. I’ve long wanted to teach you a lesson."
"I see, then I’ll leave it to Brother Ma."
Zhou Haotian realized just how humiliating it would be for one of Zhou Dafu’s former underlings to deal with him.
"Ma Benyue, as the family head, aren’t you going to rein in your son?"
Zhou Dafu turned to Ma Benyue, asking strangely.
"Ha ha, Young Master Fu, you’re no longer the top young man in Songlan City. In your crippled state, you shouldn’t make a laughingstock of yourself."
Ma Benyue chuckled lightly, sighing mockingly: "Back when Tang Ming was around, our Ma Family suffered as well. Now we serve the Sun Family, and who even remembers Tang Ming?"
"Exactly, now the Zhou Family is the top family in Songlan City, and we only recognize Zhou Xianren as the Family Head."
"Zhou Dafu is a waste who can’t even practice martial arts; such a person should have been beaten to death long ago."
"Still so arrogant with crippled legs, just kill him and end it."
"Living is just wasting food; your family of three can commit collective suicide."
To curry favor with the Zhou family, other family forces in Songlan City followed suit, kicking Zhou Dafu when he was down.
"Today, I’ve finally seen what heartlessness looks like!"
Amidst the cursing and scolding, Zhou Dafu slowly stood up.
"His legs have recovered?"
The crowd stared at Zhou Dafu in shock.
Then, Zhou Xianyi and Madam Zhou stood up, holding hands and standing aside.
"Come on, whoever wants to deal with me, just get on with it."
Zhou Dafu, once stabilized, looked fiercely at everyone.
Ma Gangqiang cursed angrily, gritting his teeth, "Even if you can stand, you’re still a waste who can’t practice martial arts, and I’ll cripple you now."
With that, Ma Gangqiang lunged at Zhou Dafu like a beast.
Facing Ma Gangqiang, with his advanced martial artist cultivation, Zhou Dafu remained unmoved.
Just when everyone thought Ma Gangqiang would kill Zhou Dafu with a single blow, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Zhou Dafu and kicked Ma Gangqiang in the chest.
