A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1259 The Indignant Lv Hua

"Lv Hua, what have you done? How did you offend these people?" asked Kong Ming furiously after his face was beaten until it became bruised. After their initial fight, Kong Ming realized that these five men could rival him.

That meant all five of them were imminent grandmasters!

Considering how powerful they were, they might stand a chance even against a true grandmaster.

Hence, the mastermind who was capable of ordering martial artists like them must be immensely powerful.

"Elder Kong, I don't know either. I don't know them at all."

Lv Hua was on the brink of tears. He was wondering what the hell was going on.

He had been beaten to a pulp without warning, apprehended like a dog, and getting sent to only god knew where.

This must be what people meant by an unexpected disaster.

Lv Hua and the others were swiftly encircled by a hill on the periphery of the rainforest.

A handsome young man stood behind a table drinking tea.

The dashing young man was none other than Chu Qi-Tian.

"Kneel now!"

A loud roar came before someone kicked Lv Hua in the knees and forced him on his knees.

"You prick! Let me go! Who are you? How could you touch China's martial artists? War God Castle won't let you off for this! You won't be able to withstand the fury of the God of War!" Lv Hua yelled indignantly with blood in his mouth. He felt furious about being forced to kneel publicly.

'War God Castle and the God of War?'

Chu Qi-Tian shook his head as he scoffed at Lv Hua.

"Anyone else might feel threatened by what you said. Sadly, it isn't enough to scare me. I am unafraid of the entire martial arts circle, let alone one tiny God of War."

"Damn you! Anyone can talk big. Do you think I'll believe you? Barely anyone else in the world can outdo the Chinese martial arts circle. How can a punk like you speak so arrogantly?" scolded Lv Hua angrily. Chu Qi-Tian ignored him. Instead, he waved his hand and ordered an old man standing behind him, "Elder Lian, teach him a lesson."

"Yes, Young Master," acknowledged the old man before walking over.

In an instant, immense internal energy radiated from the old man.

Boundless internal energy like that of a dragon surged from him.

"His internal energy is as vast as that of a dragon's."

"l-is he a..."

"A grandmaster!"

Lv Hua and the others almost pissed in their pants. They didn't expect to see a grandmaster here.

Even more shocking was how respectful and meek the grandmaster was to this young man.

"Who are you? Why did you capture me when there are no vendettas between us?"

Lv Hua finally started feeling afraid.

He was fearful of this grandmaster but even more intimidated by this young man's background.

"It doesn't matter who I am. The important thing here is that you are Lv Hua. All these years, you are the first who dares to steal what I want." Chu Qi-Tian laughed gently with a teacup in hand.

He looked at them intriguingly like a ravenous wolf that was admiring its prey.

However, the cold look in his eyes felt absolutely chilling.

Lv Hua was at a loss. He had no idea what Chu Qi-Tian was talking about.

"Take what is yours? When have I stolen anything from you? I haven't even seen you before!" Lv Hua was bewildered.

"Are you going to keep pretending? Since you had the balls to steal my spirit energy fruit, why don't you have the guts to admit it? I don't want to make things hard for you either. If you hand them over, I can let you leave unscathed. What say you?" Chu Qi-Tian held the teacup as he looked at Lv Hua with a smile.

Lv Hua was even more lost. "Spirit energy fruit? What on earth are you talking about?

I haven't even found the tree. How could I possess the spirit energy fruit?"

Lv Hua was on the brink of tears. He was clueless about what Chu Tian-Qi was

saying.

Chu Qi-Tian's face turned icy cold when he heard Lv Hua's denial.

He slammed the teacup in his hand hard on the table with a clang.

"Do you want to do it the hard way? In that case, don't blame me for being rude. Men, frisk him. If you can't find it on him, then beat him up until he hands them over," yelled Chu Qi-Tian furiously. He was never a patient man, especially to small fry like them.

To Chu Qi-Tian, it was a waste of time to even speak to someone at Lv Hua's level.

"AHHH! That hurts!"

"How dare you hit me, asshole? Damn, it hurts."

"Just you wait. When we get back to China, my clan isn't going to let you off easy."

AHH! My face! Stop! Stop hitting me.'

"Please stop hitting me. I really didn't steal the spirit energy fruit."

"AHHH! Please let me off. I really never laid eyes on any spirit energy fruit before."

Lv Hua initially acted tough when Chu Qi-Tian's men started to beat him up.

However, he caved in before long.

He begged Chu Qi-Tian nonstop with tears and snot on his face.

He looked so pathetic that he had lost all his earlier charm.

"Are you going to keep pretending? It seems you are a tough one to crack! Keep beating him. Hang him up and beat him to death. Also, do the same to his accomplices. Let's see how long they can keep their mouths shut for."

Chu Qi-Tian was outraged.

He was the young master of the mighty Chu clan. How could he fail to squeeze information out of these nobodies?

"Stop! I am the president of the Martial Arts Association of Southwest China. How dare you humiliate me?"

"You bloody little idiots, how dare you?"

Kong Ming and Lu Yan-Xi were implicated by Lv Hua. They ended up hung up on trees and beaten up by Chu Tian-Qi's subordinates with iron whips like dogs.

"Hua, if you really took them, just hand them over."

"Or else, we might really die because of this."

After some time, Kong Ming and Lu Yan-Xi could no longer bear the torture and begged Lv Hua bitterly.

Lu Yan-Xi was beaten badly too. Perhaps out of fear or pain, tears kept trickling from her eyes.

She had been spoiled since young and grew up under her father's protection, so she had never suffered any hardship before.

Now her life was at stake after suffering such torture. She couldn't withstand it and her tears couldn't stop falling.

She suddenly regretted her actions. If she had taken Ye Fan's advice and steered clear of Lv Hua, she wouldn't have gotten implicated.

"Elder Kong, I really didn't take any! Shouldn't you know full well whether I did?

Oh god! Why won't any of you believe me?" Lv Hua was so indignant that he almost cried.

He could resign himself to the fate of getting beaten up if he did take the spirit energy fruit.

However, he hadn't even seen any spirit energy fruit, but these people kept insisting that he had taken it.

Heavens, what was going on?
