72: Chapter 72: Dig a Hole, Wait to Bury Someone!
“What did you say?” Old Master Luo looked at Luo Qingtong, who was sitting calmly in front of him, so shocked that he almost doubted his own ears.
“Why suddenly call off the engagement when things were fine?
Didn’t you used to like the Fifth Prince a lot?”
Not just a lot!
It was an extreme liking!
Because of this, when she found out that people from the Tianyu Imperial Family colluded with Luo Xinning to harm her, the original character was utterly devastated and heartbroken!
Even the hurt brought by Luo Xinning was not as severe!
Luo Qingtong scoffed in her heart.
“But I don’t like him anymore.” Luo Qingtong looked at Old Master Luo, saw his face still filled with disbelief, sighed, and then threw her trump card.
“Grandfather, this is the Dark Guard Token of the Tianyu Imperial Family.
It was found on the person who was trying to assassinate me.
Oh, by the way, they were ambushed right behind the people brought by Luo Xinning, watching me being crippled in my cultivation and blinded by poison, ready to be violated.”
Luo Qingtong said it lightly.
“After I escaped, they rushed out, trying to kill me.
Instead, I killed them.”
As she spoke, she glanced at Old Master Luo, whose face was flushing red with anger, and softly said, “Grandfather, Luo Xinning told me I was too lucky, hindering others.
I think, perhaps I am obstructing the Fifth Prince’s smooth sailing ambitions!”
Only such a reason would be worth the Tianyu Imperial Family making such a ruthless move!
Old Master Luo took that token, his hands trembling all over!
“Smash!” He fiercely threw the Dark Guard Token onto the ground, veins bulging on his forehead, filled with murderous aura.
“Scoundrels!
Scoundrels!”
He cursed angrily, gritting his teeth, not knowing whether he was cursing Luo Xinning or the people from the Tianyu Imperial Family!
Before this, Old Master Luo had thought of many reasons for the troubles facing Luo Qingtong, including Luo Xinning’s actions, but he never thought that the Tianyu Imperial Family would be involved.
To him, even if the Tianyu Imperial Family wanted to call off the engagement, they wouldn’t stoop so low!
But now he realized that he was wrong!
They did not just stoop low; they employed even more despicable and infuriating tactics!
Crippling cultivation, blinding eyes, throwing his granddaughter to a bunch of men to be violated…
Just imagining these scenarios turned Old Master Luo’s face deep purple-red, his eyes bloodshot.
“We must break off the engagement!
Not only that!
I also want everyone to know what the Tianyu Imperial Family is truly like!
The Fifth Prince does not deserve my granddaughter!”
Old Master Luo was furious to the core!
He didn’t care whether this had anything to do with the Fifth Prince or not, the Tianyu Imperial Family had been displeased with Luo Qingtong for not just a day or two!
Didn’t the Fifth Prince know about it?
No!
He knew!
But he never intervened!
He himself also thought about calling off the engagement, but the Fifth Prince firmly opposed it, insisting on marrying Luo Qingtong!
Since his granddaughter liked it, Old Master Luo didn’t persist any further!
But now…
“I will set off immediately tomorrow!
Heading to Tianyu Empire to call off the engagement!”
They have already done such shameless deeds; they probably won’t cling to this marriage arrangement anymore!
Indeed, the Luo Family wasn’t keen on climbing up through this marriage!
We have to break the engagement!
Luo Qingtong watched as Old Master Luo, like a lion protecting his calf, burst out in rage, wishing he could charge to the Tianyu Empire right now to confront the Yuwen Family, and she couldn’t help smiling with joy.
Having a grandfather to protect her was truly wonderful!
“Grandfather, you can’t go about it this way.
The people of the Yuwen Family will not easily agree to call off the engagement.
We should do it this way…” She gave a mischievous smile, beckoned Old Master Luo with her finger, and whispered in his ear.
