The Female Lead Brought Her Lover to the Wedding Banquet and Broke Off the Marriage; I Slaughtered Her Entire Family - Chapter 4:
Chapter 4: It’s Not That You Know You Were Wrong, You Just Know You’re About to Die
Zhou Wanqing’s delicate face was filled with shock. She couldn’t understand why Lin Chen seemed like a completely different person today. Normally, he didn’t even dare speak harshly to her.
She suddenly felt incredibly wronged and sobbed uncontrollably.
“Lin Chen, you say you love me, but now just because I fell in love with someone else, you want to kill me? What kind of garbage love is this! You scumbag, were all your past promises just lies? Loving someone means letting them go and giving them freedom, don’t you understand?”
Lin Chen remained expressionless, even finding it a little amusing.
Had she been scrolling through those brainwashing social media apps too much? Why was she spouting such absurd theories?
He slowly walked up to Zhou Wanqing.
Zhou Wanqing thought he had softened and gently tilted her face toward him, showing off her most exquisite and proud features, trying once again to charm him with her beauty.
But…
Slap! Slap!
Two crisp slaps landed squarely on her face.
“You knew I was going to slap you and still leaned your face in? Hahaha!” Lin Chen laughed wildly.
“You… you hit me again!”
“I’m just trying to wake you up. These past years, I’ve spoiled you, given you everything you wanted. The clothes on your back, the things you use—are any of them not from the Lin family? Now look at that piece of trash beside you—what has he ever given you?”
“You’re lying! Li Feng loves me! He said he would give me the best things in the world!” Zhou Wanqing stubbornly argued.
“Anyone can make empty promises. Over the years, how many cultivation resources has he taken from you? All of them from the Lin family. If you weren’t my Lin family’s future daughter-in-law, do you think he would’ve looked at you twice?”
Zhou Wanqing was momentarily speechless, tears filling her eyes as she looked at Li Feng, her voice trembling, “Is… is what he said true?”
“Don’t listen to his nonsense, Wanqing. No matter what, I will always love you!” Li Feng said hurriedly, feeling guilty.
“Hahaha! Really? Then if I told you that if you kill Zhou Wanqing right now, I would spare your dog life, would you do it?”
Li Feng’s pupils contracted sharply.
He knew Lin Chen was deliberately trying to sow discord between them, but this was a naked provocation, and in the face of life and death, everything else became meaningless.
“Wanqing, do you really love me?”
Li Feng suddenly asked.
From his eyes, Zhou Wanqing saw something different. Her mind, usually slow, suddenly cleared, and she understood the hidden meaning behind Li Feng’s words.
So loving him meant she had to die by his hand?
At that moment, she completely collapsed. The love she had treasured so much was this fragile.
“Wuuu… wuuu…”
Zhou Wanqing sobbed, her Dao heart on the verge of collapse, mumbling repeatedly, “Lin Chen, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong.”
Lin Chen shook his head.
“It’s not that you know you were wrong. You just know you’re about to die.”
“But I suddenly changed my mind. Killing you two directly would be too merciful. Someone, go invite my dear father- and mother-in-law, along with the entire Zhou family. Tell them their son-in-law has neglected them these years and today wants to ‘compensate’ them properly.”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Wanqing felt cold all over.
“Lin Chen, what exactly do you want to do? I already admitted I was wrong!”
“If an apology was enough, why would we need the police?”
The Lin family warriors quickly set off and soon brought the entire Zhou family—dozens of people—to the banquet hall.
Zhou Changqing and Song Meizhi walked in front, dressed in luxurious clothes, their faces filled with arrogance.
These years, the Lin family catered to their every need, making them forget their place.
Seeing them, Lin Chen’s face darkened even more. These two old things had known all along about Zhou Wanqing and Li Feng’s affair but had turned a blind eye, enjoying the Lin family’s resources while favoring Li Feng’s talent.
“Father, Mother, hurry, leave now!”
Seeing her family arrive, Zhou Wanqing broke down completely.
The couple was stunned.
Weren’t they told the Lin family wanted to ‘compensate’ them? They had even prepared boxes to collect treasures and money to take home.
Seeing her daughter with tear-streaked cheeks and two red handprints on her face, Song Meizhi flew into a rage.
“Lin Chen, how dare you lay a hand on Wanqing! She’s willing to marry you out of pity, and you should get down on your knees and apologize to her immediately. Otherwise, our Zhou family will never agree to this marriage!”
Hearing this, Gu Qingzhu was furious and clenched her fists, about to charge forward.
But Lin Chen stopped her.
“Mother, calm down. I will handle this.”
He looked at Song Meizhi coldly, “Song Meizhi, open your eyes and look carefully. Right now, it’s your daughter who is shameless and unfaithful.”
“You little bastard, say that again! You’re not even married yet. Even if Wanqing is seeing another man, that’s perfectly reasonable. What right do you have to criticize?”
Lin Chen was dumbfounded.
So the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam is bound to be too. This entire family had lost their minds.
“Mother, stop talking!” Zhou Wanqing hurriedly tried to stop her. Was she trying to get the Zhou family killed faster?
But Song Meizhi, already enraged, couldn’t hear her.
“Daughter, don’t be afraid of him! Remember what I taught you—men need to be disciplined!”
“Lin Chen, I’m telling you, even if this marriage doesn’t go through today, you still have to pay mental damages to my daughter, and the Lin family must double the resources given to the Zhou family. Otherwise, don’t even think about seeing my daughter again!”
Song Meizhi stood there like a shrew, hands on her hips.
Lin Chen laughed instead of getting angry, clapping his hands.
“Finished? Then I’m going to start killing people now. Do it!”
The Lin family warriors drew their knives and rushed into the Zhou family’s group, slashing without mercy.
Silver blades in, red blades out. In the blink of an eye, dozens of Zhou family members were slaughtered on the spot.
Everything happened so fast the Zhou family couldn’t even react.
“Lin Chen, what is the meaning of this?!”
Zhou Changqing roared.
“This is the price for offending the Lin family. Today, all of you will pay for this woman’s sins! Keep killing, leave none alive!”
The warriors raised their blades again, and more wailing followed.
In an instant, the sacred hall turned into a bloody slaughterhouse, rivers of blood flowing everywhere.
Lin Chen watched it all with a smile, as if appreciating an art show.
Lin Shan and Lin Hai watched in silence, shocked by what they saw.
This boy was even more ruthless and decisive than his father and grandfather. The Lin family was truly about to produce a dragon.
Zhou Wanqing collapsed completely, crawling to Lin Chen’s feet.
“I was wrong! Please, I beg you, spare my parents. As long as you let us go, I’m willing to marry you. From now on, I’ll do whatever you say. Don’t you always want to sleep with me? We can go to the bridal chamber now.”
Lin Chen kicked her aside coldly.
“In my eyes, you’re nothing but an unwanted dog. I want you to watch your family being slaughtered one by one, and finally, it will be your turn. Savor this despair slowly.”
The Zhou family was almost wiped out, only Zhou Changqing, Song Meizhi, and a few direct descendants remained.
“Wanqing, save us!”
“We don’t want to die!”
The Zhou family pleaded, but Zhou Wanqing was speechless, left only with endless regret.
She shouldn’t have let Li Feng publicly snatch the wedding!
Even if she had married into the Lin family, she could have secretly kept seeing Li Feng, couldn’t she?
As she thought this, several long blades were already placed against the necks of the last few people.
But at that moment, a deep, commanding voice echoed from the sky.
“The Imperial Concubine has arrived. All of you, stop immediately!”
Everyone looked toward the source of the voice, only to see a woman surrounded by a squad of guards in golden armor, entering the hall.
Beside the woman stood another figure—Yue Huan!
Lin Chen gritted his teeth. This guy had brought reinforcements again.
Things were about to get troublesome.
