Chapter 504 Capable Person
"His~~~"
Upon hearing this, everyone in the Gu family gasped in astonishment, then looked at Chao Bufan with eyes that seemed to regard him as a monster.
Chao Bufan toyed with Xiong Aiguo's pistol, then put it in his pocket like a trophy. He walked back to his seat, smiled slightly, and said, "Grandpa Gu, look at my chopsticks—"
"I'll go get it." Gu Tingting, who was the first to react, immediately ran to the kitchen to get the chopsticks.
Grandpa Gu raised his hand and pressed down, saying, "Please sit down!"
Everyone sat down, but they all seemed somewhat restrained, giving Chao Bufan strange looks. The second brother, Gu Jingfeng, suddenly mustered his courage and asked, "Grandpa, what if the Orthodox Church finds out what we're doing? Wouldn't we—"
This is exactly what Old Master Gu is worried about. Now that Chao Bufan has killed more than ten members of the Orthodox Church, if the Orthodox Church finds out, they will definitely not let it go. Although they say that they are righteous and that death is not a pity, they have lived to such an old age. It is not easy. Who is not afraid of death? Everyone is the same. The older you get, the more afraid you are of death.
Chao Bufan glanced at Old Master Gu, clearly noticing the worry on his face. He smiled slightly and said, "With me here, they won't dare to do anything to you. If they dare to come, I'll make sure they don't leave alive."
At this moment, Gu Tingting took a pair of chopsticks and placed them in front of Chao Bufan, saying softly, "Brother Bufan, here are your chopsticks."
"Uh!" Hearing Gu Tingting suddenly call him Brother Bufan really startled Chao Bufan. Especially when he saw her pair of bright and tender eyes, Chao Bufan was even more excited. A strange feeling welled up from the bottom of his heart. He quickly looked away and smiled a little embarrassedly for the first time in his life, saying, "Thank you."
As he said "thank you," he was genuinely worried, thinking to himself, "This girl's power is truly immense; even I can't handle her." He quickly coughed and then said calmly, "Actually, you don't need to worry about anything. To tell you the truth, a few months ago, the people of the Crossfire Cult tried to kill me, and in a fit of anger, I wiped out one of their branches."
"what?"
Everyone present was startled. Then, Gu Tingting exclaimed in surprise, "Brother Bufan, I've heard about it! A few months ago, people from the Crossfire Cult went to HX to carry out a mission, but none of them returned. This matter shocked the entire Crossfire Cult!"
This surprised Chao Bufan, who quickly asked, "Oh? How did you know?"
Gu Tingting sat back down and smiled smugly, "I heard it from a classmate of mine by chance. Her father is a devout follower of the Crossfire Church. He said that the entire Crossfire Church, along with their families, went to their respective churches to mourn the dead believers for half a day. My classmate went there too."
Chao Bufan nodded and laughed, "I really didn't expect them to actually mourn their companions."
Grandpa Gu asked in shock, "Bufan, I've heard a little about what you're talking about, but I never imagined it was you who did it."
Chao Bufan laughed and said, "There's nothing I can do. They wanted to kill me, so I'm just 'fighting fire with fire'! That's just how I am. I don't offend others unless they offend me, but if they do, I will kill them. Of course, if someone treats me with respect, I will treat them with even greater respect. My motto is: If Heaven wants to destroy me, I will destroy Heaven first; if Earth wants to destroy me, I will destroy Earth first; if Man wants to destroy me, I will destroy Man first."
Chao Bufan's words, though spoken with great confidence and composure, were filled with domineering power. So much so that Old Master Gu and the others were all shocked upon hearing them, and their eyes were now filled with awe when they looked at Chao Bufan.
Chao Bufan smiled slightly, then said calmly, "So what if it's the Orthodox Church? It's best if they don't give me any leverage, otherwise, I will definitely storm into their lair."
"Young man, you've got quite the nerve!"
A deep, authoritative voice drifted in from outside the door. Before the voice had even finished, an elderly man in a white robe appeared before everyone. His white hair was disheveled and hung down his back, looking as if it hadn't been washed in a long time. In his hand, he held a white wooden staff that was longer than himself, which looked more like a witch's staff.
Chao Bufan glanced at the unexpected old man, slightly startled, and secretly wondered, "Mid-stage Yellow Realm?"
However, when Mr. Gu saw this old man, he was immediately shocked and exclaimed, "Father Frodo!"
That's right, he was Father Frodo of the Eastern Orthodox Church, the most powerful figure in the church, whose authority even surpassed that of the Church's chief priests. He had just happened to pass by and saw his followers angrily entering the Gu family compound. Slightly startled, he decided to come in and see what was happening. What he witnessed was astonishing. He had intended to intervene, but it was too late. His dozen or so followers had been completely wiped out by this young man's bare hands in just a few moves without even a chance to react. Moreover, the young man's ability to obliterate his men with a casual wave of his hand truly shocked him. After hearing the young man's words, he concluded that this young man was no ordinary person and, feeling a sense of appreciation for his talent, decided to come in and meet him.
His gaze remained fixed on Chao Bufan, his eyes narrowed as he scrutinized him closely. However, he was shocked to discover that he could not see through this young man. It was as if a mountain stood in front of him, making it impossible for him to discern the extent of Chao Bufan's abilities.
Chao Bufan smiled faintly and asked calmly, "Are you here for revenge?"
Frodo smiled and said, "It's just that they were blind. They deserve to die at your hands, little brother."
Upon hearing this, Old Master Gu was greatly shocked, and even Chao Bufan was slightly surprised. His man had been killed, yet not only did he not pursue the matter, but he also offered him a kind send-off. For a moment, Chao Bufan couldn't figure out what the priest was up to. He smiled faintly and said, "I think so too."
Frodo nodded, and then said, "I never expected that you, young man, would be such a remarkable person."
Chao Bufan laughed and said, "I dare not claim to be a capable person. I have only learned a few rudimentary self-defense skills, but they are more than enough to kill them. If the priest wants to avenge them, then I know I will be happy to oblige."
