Chapter 435: You are the one who cast the Gu!

Jiang Feng's words instantly stirred up a huge uproar in the hearts of all Ma family members.

Ma Laotaiye's complexion changed abruptly, his eyes instantly becoming as sharp as a blade!

At this moment, he released his Sixth Grade Grandmaster aura without reservation, causing the surrounding Ma family members to instinctively retreat half a step.

"Mr. Jiang!"

Ma Xiaotian's voice was filled with uncontrollable anger.

"Are you serious? Xiao Jian… he really was given Gu?"

He simply couldn't believe it—who would dare be so bold as to cast Gu on a Ma family member?

Ma Xiaotian's eyes were full of killing intent, his fists clenched so tightly they crackled.

"Sir, do you know who dared to lay a hand on my good grandson? If you tell me, I, as the old man, will surely mobilize the Ma family's full strength and pursue him to the death!"

As the former chairman of the Jiangnan Martial Arts Association, his Sixth Grade Grandmaster strength is no mere decoration!

Over these years in Jiangnan territory, who would dare not give the Ma family some respect?

Now someone actually dares to break ground on Tai Sui's head, casting Gu on his precious grandson—this is nothing short of a slap to Ma Xiaotian's face!

By contrast, Jiang Feng appeared completely calm.

"Old Master, you don't know this. This Gu is called the Heart-Uniting Gu!"

"This Gu technique requires the blood of close relatives as a bond to succeed in casting, so……"

Jiang Feng paused, his gaze slowly sweeping over the Ma family members present.

"The one who cast this Gu must be a direct descendant of your Ma family, and also shares blood ties with Ma Jian."

"What?"

Jiang Feng's words were like a thunderbolt from a clear sky, making Ma Xiaotian tremble all over and his face instantly turn deathly pale.

The caster of the Gu is actually a direct descendant of the Ma family?

You know the Ma family has always been known for its unity, yet now Jiang Feng tells him that the one who harmed Ma Jian is actually a member of the Ma family themselves?

This is nothing short of a monumental scandal!

Brothers fighting each other, kin slaughtering kin!

If this gets out, where can the Ma family save its face?

How could he face the Ma family's ancestors?

Ma Xiaotian's body swayed, he almost couldn't stand firm, his eyes filled with anguish.

He took a deep breath, his gaze like a torch scanning the surroundings.

Many Ma family descendants stood in the courtyard, yet looking at these familiar faces, Ma Xiaotian felt only utter estrangement.

"Tell me!"

Ma Xiaotian howled in anguish.

"Who exactly is it? Who gave Xiao Jian the Gu? If you step forward now, this old man can forgive you this once!"

His gaze swept over each person's face, hoping to see a hint of a flaw, and also hoping that person would step forward voluntarily.

"If I wait until I find out……"

Ma Xiaotian's tone instantly turned ice-cold and bone-chilling.

"Don't blame this old man for being ruthless—I'll expel you from the Ma family!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the courtyard's atmosphere instantly became extremely solemn.

Being expelled from the Ma family is undoubtedly the harshest punishment for its descendants.

However, after Ma Xiaotian's words were shouted out, the people in the courtyard merely looked at each other, with no one stepping forward to admit it.

Ma Xiaotian looked at the scene before him, his disappointment deepening, his heart feeling as if gripped by an invisible hand, causing intense pain.

He slowly shook his head.

"This old man is truly disappointed in you! The Ma family raised you, taught you unity and friendship, to help each other, yet among you, someone actually did such a heinous thing!"

"Can you face the Ma family's ancestors? Can you live up to this old man's expectations of you?"

Just then, Ma Cheng's voice suddenly rang out.

"Grandfather, please don't get angry first!"

"Who doesn't know that the Ma family is united top to bottom, friendly and loving? Over these years, no matter what happens, the family has always been united as one, even brothers rarely quarrel!"

He turned his head to look at Jiang Feng, his eyes carrying a hint of doubt.

"Based solely on Mr. Jiang's words, concluding that a family member did this—isn't that too hasty? Even if the elder brother really was framed and infected with some Heart-Uniting Gu, it could possibly be the work of an outsider!"

"Exactly, the third young master makes sense!"

"Our Ma family has always been united—how could such a thing happen?"

As soon as Ma Cheng's words were spoken, they immediately garnered agreement from many Ma family members.

Ma Dongyang also furrowed his brow and walked to Ma Xiaotian's side.

"Father, Ah Cheng is right. Among the Provincial Capital Nine Great Families, our Ma family is famed for its unity; I believe they would never commit such atrocities against kin."

He paused, then also looked at Jiang Feng with some doubt.

"Shouldn't this matter be investigated further? After all, it's of great importance; we can't draw a conclusion based solely on Mr. Jiang's words. Otherwise, once people's hearts scatter, it would be hard to regroup them……"

For a moment, everyone's eyes focused on Jiang Feng, filled with suspicion.

It seemed as if Jiang Feng himself were the culprit deliberately sowing discord and destroying the Ma family's unity.

Even Ma Xiaotian showed a hesitant expression on his face.

He turned his head to look at Jiang Feng, brows tightly furrowed.

"Mr. Jiang, you said the Gu was cast by a Ma family member—this matter…… might still need discussion? After all, I still understand the situation of my Ma family; they shouldn't do such a thing."

Although Jiang Feng had previously displayed astonishing medical skill, this matter is truly too major, involving the family's reputation, so he must treat it with caution.

Facing everyone's doubts, Jiang Feng appeared very calm.

He just gave a faint smile.

"Is it really that simple whether it was done by someone from the Ma Family themselves?"

Jiang Feng's gaze turned toward the Deep of Ma Family Manor. "I've found the source of this Heart-linked Gu; isn't it obvious now?"

Jiang Feng glanced at Ma Cheng, his eyes carrying a barely perceptible sneer, then he said to everyone:

"Please follow me; we'll know the truth soon!"

After saying that, Jiang Feng wasted no more words; he moved his Foot, took a step, and walked toward the Deep of Ma Family Manor.

The Ma Family members looked at each other, their faces full of doubt.

But now, they had no other choice.

Ma Jian's matter must be resolved; we must also find out who placed the gu.

Ma Xiaotian took a deep breath and said to everyone:

"Everyone, follow me and see! I want to see who is behind this!"

After saying that, he took the lead and followed.

Ma Dongyang and Ma Cheng exchanged a glance and hurriedly followed.

The Ma Family members hesitated for a moment, then all followed behind.

A large group followed Jiang Feng behind, walking toward the Deep of Ma Family Manor...

After walking about ten minutes, Jiang Feng arrived outside a small courtyard.

Ma Cheng's expression suddenly changed.

But see Jiang Feng stop his Footsteps, look at Ma Cheng, and say with a half-smile:

"Ma San Shao, if I'm not mistaken, Here should be your residence, right?"

Ma Cheng forced an embarrassed smile.

"Mr. Jiang, you guessed correctly..."

Jiang Feng heard that, and before he could finish speaking, he shook his head.

"I'm not guessing; I found the source by sensing the Gu Insects' aura..."

"You are the one who placed the gu on Ma Jian!"
