Chapter 583 — A Tooth for a Tooth

The Blossom Guardian

Wu Chengtian had originally been here in Songshan City as well, only the old master of the Wu family had just left the hospital. He had to settle his family affairs before he could return.

Even so, it added a good deal of luster to this completion ceremony!

An Jianwen, Su Taizao, the disciples of the Five Minor Families, and a disciple of the Sun family, all of these people had vast social connections, so the crowds they brought were enormous, and the lobby of the Qibing Restaurant was already bustling with excitement!

Zhao Qibing stood on the stage, holding his wine glass high, thoroughly pleased with the scene before him! These people represented every power in Songshan City and even the province, which meant his future business in Songshan City was bound to flourish!

"Thank you all for coming to the completion ceremony for our Qibing Real Estate office building, the Qibing Tower. Let us raise our glasses and celebrate this joyous moment together!" Zhao Qibing lifted the glass in his hand and went on: "Once we drink this wine, we will go together to unveil the Qibing Tower!"

The guests also raised their glasses and drank with Zhao Qibing, but at that very moment a tremendous boom was suddenly heard, startling everyone present! With the boom came a shaking that felt like an earthquake!

No one knew who shouted: "It collapsed! The tower outside collapsed!"

Zhao Qibing looked outside in the direction of the shout, only to see the newly completed yet still unveiled Qibing Tower across from the restaurant collapsing with one thunderous crash after another. Around the tower were many bulldozers and excavators, which not only helped the demolition by knocking down the surrounding structures but also smashed the nearby parking lot and landscaped gardens into a complete mess!

In the blink of an eye, a towering building was razed to the ground.

Zhao Qibing stared with wide eyes, as if he had seen a ghost. But then he realized at once that someone was tearing down his tower!

Zhao Qibing no longer cared about the guests present and rushed out of the restaurant in a few quick strides, with Uncle Zhu following close beside him, never leaving his side.

Wei Zhao now stood between the tower and the restaurant, watching coldly as the Qibing Tower was demolished into flat ground.

You tore down Tang Yun's family house, so I will tear down your tower.

Fatty Lai had spent years building houses, but this was his first time demolishing a newly completed tower. Watching a soaring building brought crashing down in an instant felt indescribably satisfying! Something this bold could only be pulled off by the boss!

"Who are you? What do you want?" Zhao Qibing's eyes were practically spitting fire. He had no idea where these people had come from, yet they had demolished his newly completed tower the moment they arrived! How could Zhao Qibing not be hysterical?

"Are you Zhao Qibing?" Wei Zhao looked at him coldly and asked.

"That's right." Zhao Qibing took a deep breath and regained his composure. Since this man knew he was Zhao Qibing, he must surely know his background! Then what did it mean that he still dared to demolish his tower?

Although Zhao Qibing wanted nothing more now than to tear Wei Zhao to pieces, for it was he who had made him a laughingstock! A completion ceremony had actually turned into a demolition ceremony, which left Zhao Qibing utterly humiliated, nothing short of a monstrous disgrace!

"I am Tang Yun's boyfriend." Wei Zhao nodded and said calmly: "You tore down her family's house, but you still owe me a pair of legs, and I will also disfigure you."

"Tang Yun?" Zhao Qibing froze, but hearing Wei Zhao speak of tearing down a house, and of disfigurement and owed legs, he knew exactly who Wei Zhao meant! Was it not that pretty girl he had set his eyes on that morning?

What Zhao Qibing had not expected was that Tang Yun actually had such a formidable boyfriend? These bulldozers and excavators were not something an ordinary man could have assembled in such a short time!

Wei Zhao gave him no more chance to speak, but walked toward him step by step: "You will not live past this year."

"Uncle Zhu, kill him for me!" Zhao Qibing did not take Wei Zhao seriously at all. Wei Zhao had already cost him all his face, and if he did not kill him now to vent his anger, he believed he would never be able to hold his head up again in Songshan City before these celebrities who had come to the completion ceremony!

As for the consequences of killing Wei Zhao, Zhao Qibing did not need to consider them! All these people knew his background and would not dare to say anything reckless. Besides, none of their own hands were that clean either, so they would never expose or report him.

Wei Zhao paid no attention to Zhao Qibing, but kept walking toward him.

Uncle Zhu moved, striking a palm toward Wei Zhao! A strange glint flashed in Wei Zhao's eyes as he thrust out his own palm to meet him.

With a thunderous "boom", Uncle Zhu staggered back several steps, spat out a mouthful of blood, and his breathing caught! He stared at Wei Zhao before him in disbelief! Xuan rank! This man was actually Xuan rank as well!

Wei Zhao also tasted sweetness in his throat, but he did not fall back. He kept approaching Zhao Qibing step by step!

Zhao Qibing was dumbfounded now! He knew Uncle Zhu's strength well, he was a master at the early stage of Xuan rank! Such men were rare even in the family, and only because his father doted on him had Uncle Zhu been assigned to guard him. Yet such a master had been knocked back and left spitting blood by a single palm from Wei Zhao?

How was this possible? This young man before him was not even twenty yet, was he?

Uncle Zhu wanted to rush over to save Zhao Qibing, but having just exchanged a palm with Wei Zhao, he had suffered serious internal injuries and had not yet steadied his breathing. At this moment he could not move at all! He could not even speak!

Zhao Qibing was finally afraid. Arrogant though he was, he was no fool! If someone could drive back Uncle Zhu, beating him would be child's play? He turned around, no longer caring about face or pride, and tried to run.

But Wei Zhao blocked his path.

"Leave your legs behind."

Wei Zhao said calmly.

"I am a descendant of the Zhao family, you cannot do this!" Zhao Qibing blurted out his identity: "My father is Zhao Guangyin."

"Who is Zhao Guangyin? Never heard of him. The brother of Zhao Kuangyin?" Wei Zhao slapped Zhao Qibing across the head, leaving his face a bloody, unrecognizable mess, with blood streaming down, impossible to tell just where he was hurt.

How fierce was the force in Wei Zhao's hand? He sent Zhao Qibing tumbling head over heels with a single slap, knocking him out cold.

But the next moment Zhao Qibing came awake again, because he clearly felt the pain in both legs, and heard the crisp sound of bones snapping.

With two sharp "cracks", Zhao Qibing passed out once more.

Wei Zhao meant to plant something more on Zhao Qibing's body, but he felt his own body growing heavier and heavier. He took a deep breath and forced himself to stay steady.
