Chapter 1014: The Poison of Gu Technique
"Grandfather!"
"Grandfather... sob sob..."
The coffin of Murong Bei was placed in the garden of the villa, and Murong Fei was heartbroken, crying like a tearful mess.
Standing at the back, Su Xuejiao also supported the coffin, tears streaming down her face.
The villa was filled with an atmosphere of sorrow, and everyone bowed their heads. Qin Tian clenched his fists even tighter, vowing in his heart that he could not be considered a man if he did not avenge this hatred!
He looked at Murong Fei in front of him. In just two or three days, Murong Fei had lost a lot of weight, her face haggard, yet still radiantly beautiful, which made Qin Tian feel endless pity.
"Murong, accept my condolences. May he rest in peace; the old master has been outside for three days already..."
Qin Tian went to comfort Murong Fei, then asked Zhou Yang to arrange for Murong Bei's body to be transported to the mountains in the suburbs of Beijing. Qin Tian had Zhou Yang buy a piece of barren land there yesterday, where Murong Bei would be buried.
That afternoon, Murong Bei was laid to rest, while Qin Tian immersed himself in sorrow.
In stark contrast, the Shangguan Family was hosting a celebration.
Although the people sent out to deal with Qin Tian were totally defeated, at least Shangguan Yunfei returned safely, and they were planning to further handle Murong Fei and Qin Tian.
Thus, Shangguan Zhen Nan held a feast at home, inviting the head of the Shangguan Family, his big brother Shangguan Zhenbang, the family's top martial artist Shangguan Zhenxiong, and a few personal martial arts experts with significant influence.
Shangguan Zhen Nan was full of confidence, planning to wipe out Qin Tian, claiming boldly that if Shangguan Zhenxiong could take a break, he could deal with Qin Tian and the Murong Family himself.
To this, Shangguan Zhenxiong replied with a dismissive laugh, "Second brother, if you think you have the power, go ahead, I'll just stand by idly. Do as you please."
The head of the Shangguan Family was an elderly man in his sixties, Shangguan Zhenxiong's own big brother Shangguan Zhenbang. He looked worriedly at Shangguan Zhen Nan and said, "Second brother, don't be too conceited. The Murong Family is not easy to deal with. I think it's best to let the third brother..."
"Big brother, we can't let the third brother handle all the Shangguan Family's matters alone, can we? That would be too exhausting for him!"
Shangguan Zhen Nan interrupted Shangguan Zhenbang, "As the second brother, I should share the burden with the third brother."
"Before, when the Murong Family didn't offend me, I ignored it and that was fine. But now, they have beaten and kidnapped Yunfei twice! Humph, if I don't respond this time, as the second-in-command of the Shangguan Family, I would be too spineless!"
Shangguan Zhen Nan spoke forcefully, sweeping his gaze across the room, "I dare not say about others, but as for Qin Tian, I can crush him with just one hand!"
"Aiya..."
Just as Shangguan Zhen Nan finished speaking confidently, a sudden scream came from the dining table.
Everyone looked to see Shangguan Yunfei convulsing, his head tilted, eyes rolled back, and then he slid right off his chair under the table!
"Son!"
"Yunfei!"
Seeing this terrible occurrence, everyone was wide-eyed and shocked!
Sitting beside him, Ye Shuyun was scared out of her wits and quickly pulled Shangguan Yunfei from under the table.
However, Shangguan Yunfei didn't move, and she couldn't pull him up...
"Son! Son! What's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"
Ye Shuyun was so frightened her eyes were red, hastily moving the table away with the help of the servants, everyone gathered around and, looking closely, saw that Shangguan Yunfei had already stopped breathing. His eyes were wide open, dead!
"Call an ambulance! Call an ambulance!"
Shangguan Zhen Nan, who had just boasted that he could crush Qin Tian with one hand, was now twisted with a distorted expression, shouting at the servants to call an ambulance.
Beside him, Ye Shuyun was already crying in shock.
Shangguan Zhenbang and the others were dumbfounded, not knowing what had happened.
Shangguan Yunfei was just fine a moment ago. How could he be motionless in the blink of an eye!?
Only Shangguan Zhenxiong frowned slightly, squatting down, and reached to check Shangguan Yunfei's breathing.
He then checked Shangguan Yunfei's eyes, wrist, and throat before standing up with a grave expression.
Ye Shuyun knew Shangguan Zhenxiong understood medical skill, quickly asked, "Third brother, how is it? Is Yunfei okay?"
Shangguan Yunfei pursed his lips, "He's not breathing, he's already dead."
"Dead?! Impossible! Impossible! Sob sob... My son was fine just now, how could he be dead!"
Ye Shuyun cried out, bent down to see Shangguan Yunfei's already stiffening body, her head spun, and she fainted!
"What, what is going on? Third brother, take a look. Can my son be saved?"
In an instant, with his son dead and his wife fainted, Shangguan Zhen Nan was completely stunned, panic-stricken, not knowing what to do next.
Shangguan Zhenxiong said, "Yunfei was affected by a Gu Technique. This Gu Technique mixes poison, making the poisoned look completely normal. If a full body examination is not conducted, it cannot be detected."
"But once the Gu Technique activates, the poisoned person instantly dies from the poison, with no chance of rescue."
With these words from Shangguan Zhenxiong, Shangguan Zhen Nan was instantly dumbfounded, collapsing onto the ground in despair. A fifty-something-year-old man was about to cry...
"Gu Technique? Who cast the Gu Technique? Who murdered my son?"
Shangguan Zhen Nan cried out, "I only have this one son!"
"It could only be them." Shangguan Zhenxiong said calmly.
"Qin Tian!?"
Shangguan Zhen Nan widened his eyes.
Shangguan Zhenxiong nodded, "Yunfei fell into their hands, only they could have done something. They never intended to spare Yunfei..."
"That's too cruel!"
Shangguan Zhenbang gritted his teeth and said, "That Qin Tian, intends for the second brother to bury his own son! Ah... Such a person cannot be allowed to stay!"
Shangguan Zhen Nan finally woke up from his dream of confidence, thinking that Qin Tian was frightened of the Shangguan Family and returned Shangguan Yunfei.
Unexpectedly, it was all part of Qin Tian's plan!
Not only did they exchange for Murong Bei's body, but also successfully killed Shangguan Yunfei! Made Shangguan Yunfei die right before the Shangguan Family's eyes!
So ruthless!
"Third brother! Third brother! Yunfei was your nephew, you must avenge him! Second brother begs you..."
Shangguan Zhen Nan was tearing up, pleading.
Shangguan Zhenxiong nodded, "I said it, I will deal with the Murong Family and Qin Tian. Now, do you believe me?"
Shangguan Zhen Nan sighed and repented.
Shangguan Zhenxiong said solemnly:
"Gu Technique... Heh, looks like I underestimated this Qin Tian! Striking first, and striking fatally. How ruthless!"
