Liang Bufan was both confused and panicked.
He did not understand why these people from the Suzhou Ancient Martial Arts Circle had turned against him, and even more so, he did not understand how Gu Chenan knew that he had poisoned the wine vessel.
Even if these people had told Gu Chenan about this matter beforehand, they should not have known when he poisoned it!
As Gu Chenan slowly closed in on him with an indifferent expression, Liang Bufan gritted his teeth.
He knew that Gu Chenan had won the championship at the Donghai Ancient Martial Arts Competition, but he did not know exactly what Gu Chenan's martial arts skills were like.
So he steeled his heart - if worse comes to worst, he would fight to the death!
Thinking this, Liang Bufan glared at Gu Chenan angrily: "What...what are you trying to do?"
Gu Chenan still had a faint smile on his face: "I'm very curious about the effects of your poison, why don't you demonstrate it for me?"
"You wish!" Liang Bufan understood the implication behind Gu Chenan's words.
Gu Chenan shook his head with a smile: "It seems you still don't understand your current situation."
As he spoke, Gu Chenan called out towards the door, "Ma Bing, come in."
Ma Bing pushed the door open and quickly came to Gu Chenan's side.
Gu Chenan nodded slightly at Liang Bufan, "Go, search his body for the poison."
"Yes."
Ma Bing nodded, then walked over.
Liang Bufan's eyes narrowed instantly, gritting his teeth, "If you want to use force, I, Liang Bufan, am not afraid of you either!"
Ma Bing didn't bother to argue with him, and reached out to search his body directly.
Liang Bufan immediately took up a stance, preparing to teach this little bodyguard a lesson, to let Gu Chenan know that he was not so easily provoked either.
But at that moment, Ma Bing's figure suddenly flashed explosively, like a ray of light with afterimages, instantly appearing behind Liang Bufan.
Then his two hands grabbed Liang Bufan's wrists, twisted them back forcefully, while his knee pinned Liang Bufan's back, pressing his whole body firmly to the ground.
Not until Liang Bufan's face came into intimate contact with the floor did he react.
He was instantly shocked beyond measure.
Such incredible martial arts!
I couldn't even see his movements clearly!
Ma Bing's lightning-fast moves not only shocked Liang Bufan, but also shocked everyone from the Suzhou Ancient Martial Arts Circle.
They were all stunned by Ma Bing's speed like gale force winds, and also shocked that Gu Chenan's bodyguard actually had such skills!
Although Liang Bufan was not considered top-notch in the Suzhou Ancient Martial Arts Circle, his skills were quite good.
But when facing Ma Bing, he was like a helpless child!
Ma Bing pinned Liang Bufan's wrists with one hand, and searched his waist with the other hand, eventually taking out a small porcelain bottle from his pocket.
"Young Master Gu, this should be it."
Gu Chenan took the small bottle and examined it, then opened the lid and smelled it, "Truly colorless and odorless."
Saying so, he handed the small bottle back to Ma Bing, with an indifferent expression and cold tone, "Make him drink it."
"Gu Chenan! You dare!" Liang Bufan struggled under Ma Bing, "If you really make me drink it, my martial arts school will definitely not let you off!"
"Threatening me?" Gu Chenan sneered, then lightly waved his hand to gesture at Ma Bing.
Ma Bing nodded, then exerted force with both his hands and knees simultaneously.
Crack!
A crisp sound of bone cracking immediately rang out.
"Ahhhhh!"
Sweat instantly beaded on Liang Bufan's forehead, and he let out cries of agony.
Seeing this scene made everyone else feel chilled to the bone.
To forcibly break Liang Bufan's arm so brutally...
Young Master Gu is truly ruthless...
After screaming for a few times, Liang Bufan's body shuddered, his lips turned pale, and he soon fainted from the pain.
Seeing this, Gu Chenan shook his head in great disappointment.
"How could he just pass out like this? Now how can I observe the poison taking effect?"
Hearing these words, Ma Bing immediately grabbed the water jug, and splashed it onto Liang Bufan's face.
Liang Bufan jerked awake, opening his eyes slightly.
Then Ma Bing pried open his mouth, and poured in the poison from the porcelain bottle.
Having done this, he stepped back behind Gu Chenan.
Gu Chenan squatted down, smiling at Liang Bufan, "I was going to let you demonstrate the symptoms of this poison, then let the matter rest after that."
"But I can't help it, I really hate people threatening me!"
Saying so, he stood up and smiled at the others who were chilled with apprehension, "Gentlemen, I have other matters to attend to, so I shall take my leave. You're always welcome to visit my manor."
"Farewell, Young Master Gu." They nodded and saw him off.
Gu Chenan and Ma Bing left the private room. Only when they could no longer hear the two's footsteps did the others rush to Liang Bufan's side.
Their original intention was not to let Gu Chenan be poisoned, rather than to have Gu Chenan put Liang Bufan in such a sorry state.
One must know, for those who practice ancient martial arts, once their bones are damaged, their skills will surely plummet.
Not to mention Liang Bufan having his arm directly snapped!
"What...what should we do now?"
They examined Liang Bufan's injuries and discussed what to do.
"We only wanted to repay Young Master Gu's kindness, yet didn't expect Young Master Gu to handle this matter so ruthlessly!"
"Humph, this is Liang Bufan's own doing, he deserved it!" Someone scoffed.
"While that may be true, however you see it, Liang Bufan is still one of us from the Suzhou Ancient Martial Arts Circle. Even if he deserved punishment, it shouldn't have been Gu from Donghai who disciplined him right?"
"Alas, this matter won't be easy to resolve - on one side there's Young Master Gu, on the other there's Liang Bufan's martial arts school..."
"I say, let's not offend either side for now. First send Liang Bufan back to his martial arts school."
...
Gu Chenan and Ma Bing got into the car.
Ma Bing started the engine, and kept glancing at Gu Chenan occasionally through the rearview mirror.
Noticing Ma Bing's abnormal behavior, Gu Chenan said, "If you have something to say, just say it directly."
Ma Bing asked doubtfully, "Young Master Gu, aren't we going to nip this in the bud?"
Gu Chenan had expected Ma Bing to ask this question. He smiled, "The people present today are all from the Suzhou Ancient Martial Arts Circle like Liang Bufan. When I had you break Liang Bufan's arm, those people's faces already turned grave and broke into a cold sweat. If I really had you kill Liang Bufan on the spot, what do you think they would do?"
"Hmm..." Ma Bing thought for a moment, "They would try to stop it?"
"Correct." Gu Chenan nodded.
Ma Bing quickly added, "Young Master Gu, I don't mean to boast, but even if they tried to stop me, I could still kill Liang Bufan before they could make a move!"
Gu Chenan smiled lightly, "I know your skills, but for now I don't want to completely become enemies with the entire Suzhou Ancient Martial Arts Circle. Killing Liang Bufan would be irreversible."
Ma Bing was startled, and pondered carefully before nodding, "I understand, Young Master Gu."
Although Lin Yu was gravely injured now, he was still in Suzhou. Even those people from the martial arts circle who beat Lin Yu to that state, Lin Yu's hatred was still directed at himself.
According to Lin Yu's destined protagonist temperament, it was very likely that he would do something earth-shattering in the future, thoroughly shocking the Suzhou Ancient Martial Arts Circle, and make those people revere and follow him as minions.
Gu Chenan had seen this trope numerous times in web novels.
Therefore, Gu Chenan did not want to completely become enemies with the Suzhou Ancient Martial Arts Circle - he wanted the entire Suzhou Ancient Martial Arts Circle to serve him!
