Chapter 231: The So-Called Gu Poison

"Wait! You cannot take Jun'er away!"

Shen Shen Feiyun suddenly called out to stop Lin Fan.

"Jun'er has been afflicted with Gu poison since she was a child. For the past ten years, I have been trying to find a way to remove the Gu poison, but I have been helpless. If you take her away, she might die! You cannot be so selfish!"

Seeing Lin Fan stop, Shen Shen Feiyun immediately continued.

"What?"

Everyone present, except Lin Fan, was shocked, even Shen Shen Bijun herself.

Shen Shen Bijun knew that her mother had built the Shen Family Manor like an iron barrel formation; these copper walls and iron barriers were all to guard against her, not to let her escape. She just hadn't expected that her mother was doing it entirely for her own good. She had always misunderstood her mother, and for a moment, she felt somewhat guilty.

"I know. She is afflicted with the Carefree Marquis's Gu poison. I also know that the Carefree Marquis planted the Gu poison on Shen Bijun to take revenge on you!"

"What? Carefree Marquis?"

"Carefree Marquis, is that the Carefree Marquis, the leader of the Heaven Sect, who made Brother Lian Brother Lian Zetian, the former manor master of the Zhangsun Wugou Mountain Manor, kneel and beg for mercy?"

The crowd discussed heatedly, not expecting to hear news of the Carefree Marquis.

"Bold!"

Brother Lian Chengbie pointed his sword directly at the person who had just been gossiping, scaring him into apologizing repeatedly.

He did not believe that his father, Brother Lian Brother Lian Zetian, had knelt and begged for mercy from the Carefree Marquis to survive back then.

"You know it was the Carefree Marquis who planted the Gu? Then do you know what kind of Gu he planted on Jun'er?"

Shen Shen Feiyun was greatly shocked; she hadn't expected Lin Fan to know about this too.

"Madam Shen seems to have forgotten that my title is the Heaven's Secret Young Master, specializing in deducing heavenly secrets, so naturally, I know everything. As for the Gu poison the Carefree Marquis planted on Shen Bijun, I also know that; it is the Love Gu!"

Lin Fan explained while waving his folding fan.

"Love Gu?"

Everyone present looked at each other, not knowing what effect this Gu poison had. Only Shen Shen Feiyun was thoughtful.

"Of the eighty thousand words in the world, only the word 'love' hurts people the most. The Carefree Marquis wants Shen Bijun to never be able to possess love in this life. The deeper she loves, the heavier the Gu poison will be. Every time she cannot control her feelings, the Gu poison will flare up. Once her love reaches the point of being engraved in her bones, the Gu poison will also penetrate into her marrow, and it will be incurable!"

As he spoke, Lin Fan touched the pretty face of Shen Shen Bijun beside him. In the original show, she suffered from the Gu poison, but since he was here, he would not let her suffer this pain again.

"The Carefree Marquis is actually so vicious? He wants my Jun'er to cut off all feelings? Since that is the case, why do you still want to take Jun'er away? Don't you know that she is young and inexperienced, and the longer she stays by your side, the deeper she will love you, and in the end, she can only end up dying?"

Shen Shen Feiyun never expected the Carefree Marquis to be so vicious, planting such an insidious Love Gu on Shen Shen Bijun. But she couldn't understand even more why Lin Fan still wanted to commit the crime knowing it was wrong.

"You want to marry Shen Bijun to Brother Lian Chengbie; wouldn't that also make her Gu poison flare up and cause her to die?"

Lin Fan did not answer but countered instead.

"That was because I didn't know anything. I was not only helpless against the Gu poison on Shen Bijun, but I was also completely ignorant of it. I could only use Shen Bijun's marriage and take out the Cutting Deer Blade as a dowry to lure out the Carefree Marquis, then use the power and status of the Zhangsun Wugou Mountain Manor to fight the Carefree Marquis together, forcing him to take out the antidote and cure Jun'er's Gu poison!"

Shen Shen Feiyun shouted in a breakdown.

"So that's it. I was wondering why Alliance Leader Shen chose Brother Lian Chengbie as her son-in-law and even took out the Cutting Deer Blade as a dowry. It turns out she wanted to unite with the Zhangsun Wugou Mountain Manor to deal with the Carefree Marquis and save her daughter."

The guests present finally understood the purpose of Shen Shen Feiyun's recruitment.

"Since you know everything, you must know how to remove the Gu poison in Jun'er's body?"

Shen Shen Feiyun suddenly thought of this.

"According to the Carefree Marquis's thinking, there is only one way to remove the Love Gu on Shen Bijun."

Lin Fan nodded and explained.

"What way?"

Shen Shen Feiyun asked quickly.

"That is to let Shen Bijun drink the Carefree Marquis's blood. As long as she drinks a mouthful of his blood every day, the Love Gu will soon be removed, and Shen Bijun will naturally be safe and sound!"

Lin Fan walked in front of Shen Shen Feiyun and spoke eloquently.

"Good! Heaven's Secret Young Master, I know your Wu Gong is peerless, and the Carefree Marquis is definitely not your match. As long as you can help me capture the Carefree Marquis and remove the Love Gu in Jun'er's body, I am willing to betroth Jun'er to you!"

Shen Shen Feiyun immediately beamed with joy. She knew she was no match for the Carefree Marquis. If it were before, even if she knew the way to save Shen Shen Bijun, she would be worried and helpless. After all, the Carefree Marquis was not easy to deal with.

But now it was good. The Heaven's Secret Young Master had delivered himself to her door. His Wu Gong was peerless, and he had mutual feelings with Jun'er. As long as he helped her capture the Carefree Marquis, she could not only remove the Love Gu on Jun'er and gain a world-famous son-in-law, but she could also return the pain and torture she had suffered over the years to the Carefree Marquis twofold. Three birds with one stone; it was simply heaven's grace.

As for what to do with Brother Lian Chengbie? That could only be an apology. Anyway, he and Jun'er hadn't gotten engaged yet, so that was that.

"I'm sorry, I cannot agree to that."

However, Lin Fan's words made Shen Shen Feiyun's smile freeze on her face and then disappear.

"Why? Are you also afraid of that Carefree Marquis?"

Shen Shen Feiyun looked at Lin Fan in disbelief.

"Carefree Marquis? Just a withered bone in a grave. Dealing with him takes no effort at all."

Lin Fan shook his head. A person who was at most at the peak of the Great Grandmaster realm was not worth his serious attention.

"Then why are you unwilling to save Jun'er in her time of crisis? Could it be that you are just playing with Jun'er, just enjoying the taste of toying with her feelings? Sure enough, there is not a single good man in the world!"

Shen Shen Feiyun looked at Lin Fan with hatred upon hearing this. The Carefree Marquis was like this back then, and now the Heaven's Secret Young Master was the same. All men in the world are the same!

The four women behind Lin Fan were all stunning beauties, peerless and elegant, not a bit worse than her daughter Shen Shen Bijun, who was known as the number one beauty in the Wu Lin.

From this, it could be seen that Lin Fan was not lacking in stunning beauties, so he might just be playing with Jun'er, and he wouldn't even help her remove the Love Gu because he found it troublesome.

Shen Shen Bijun also looked at Lin Fan with some confusion. Since she obtained Lin Fan's diary copy, her black-and-white life had suddenly gained color.

By watching Lin Fan's diary, she substituted herself into it, as if she were also accompanying Lin Fan through a life of unrestrained Jianghu and swift revenge. Every event Lin Fan experienced made her feel as if she were there. This sense of participation had made her fall deeply in love with Lin Fan unknowingly. She hadn't expected Lin Fan to be unwilling to help her remove the Love Gu.

Under the agitation of her emotions, a red line on Shen Shen Bijun's arm spread from her wrist to her neck, and then her eyes also turned blood-red, and her whole person became cold and ruthless, revealing a thirst for blood.

However, at this moment, she was firmly restrained in Lin Fan's arms and couldn't move.

"Jun'er! Jun'er, what's wrong with you? Don't scare mother!"
