A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1263 Captured the Wrong Man

No one noticed the old man lying in the pool of blood moving his limbs as they left.

The old man hadn't died yet.

After all, it was easy to defeat a grandmaster, but a completely different matter to kill one.

The old man was a grandmaster after all.

Hence, it was no surprise that even after suffering from fatal injuries, he was still able to survive.

He used his remaining energy to pull out his phone after everyone left and agonizingly dialed a number.

Chu Qi-Tian was still outside the rainforest torturing Lv Hua and the others.

"Young Master, Lv Hua still refuses to admit to his crimes," reported Chu Qi-Tian's subordinate respectfully in front of the long table.

Chu Qi-Tian furrowed his brows with his eyes cold. "I didn't expect this guy to be so tough to crack. Continue interrogating him. Tell him he has an hour. An hour later, don't blame me for cutting him up and feeding him to the dogs if he doesn't tell me where the spirit energy fruit is."

"Yes, Young Master. I'm on it," said the subordinate before he left.

"Hang on." But a thought crossed Chu Qi-Tian's mind, and he asked, "Any word from Elder Keith? It has been days, so he should have sent the second batch of spirit energy fruit by now."

"Well..." The subordinate hesitated before he continued, "Young Master, we haven't heard back from Elder Keith yet."

"Hmm?" Chu Qi-Tian instantly frowned harder. "What is going on with the old man? Don't tell me he's run into trouble again?"

"Probably not. Since we have captured Lv Hua, Elder Keith should have no obstacles obtaining the spirit energy fruit now. Young Master, please wait a little longer. Perhaps Elder Keith will send word soon." The subordinate smiled courteously.

Sure enough, the moment he finished his sentence, they received a phone call.

"Haha! What did I say, Young Master? He's finally called."

His subordinate handed the phone to Chu Qi-Tian when he saw it was Elder Keith calling.

Chu Qi-Tian was delighted too.

The worry in his heart disappeared instantly.

He picked up the phone and asked, "Keith, were there any problems this time? Since we have already captured Lv Hua, no one else can make trouble. If you still failed to obtain any spirit energy fruit this time, then don't come back."

Chu Qi-Tian leaned into his chair with the satellite phone in hand as he sipped tea. His voice sounded intimidating.

However, no reply came after a long time.

Instead, only gasping could be heard over the phone.

"Hmm? Keith, what's going on? Why aren't you saying anything? I was talking to you. Tell me what's going on," said Chu Qi-Tian somewhat unhappily in a slightly angry tone.

An old man's gasping voice could finally be heard over the phone.

"It's...it's not Lv Hua. It's...it's that...

abandoned boy, C-chu Tian-Fan. Young Master, hurry...fmd the...find the sect leader..."

His weak voice sounded like a candle in the wind as it quietly rang by Chu Qi-Tian's ear.

Despite how soft the old man was, it sounded thunderous to Chu Qi-Tian.

In an instant, a tsunami flooded Chu Tian-Qi's heart!

"What?! What are you saying? Chu Tian-Fan? What on earth is going on? Don't tell me that punk is in the Amazon rainforest too?"

"Say something! Answer me! Keith..."

Chu Qi-Tian was incapable of staying calm.

The moment he heard the name, Chu Tian-Fan, the future head of the Chu family roared hysterically like a lunatic.

But no reply came.

Only a deathly silence could be heard over the phone.

PAK!

The phone slid from his hand and fell onto the ground.

Chu Qi-Tian trembled as his face turned ghastly pale with a look of shock on his face. He ended up slumping powerlessly into the seat.

"Young Master, what's wrong? Did something happen? Is Elder Keith in trouble? Shall I send someone to help him?" Chu Qi-Tian's subordinate asked anxiously when he detected his boss' expression. Chu Qi-Tian said nothing for a long time with his face ghastly pale like he was halfdead. In the end, he shook his head, "You don't have to save him. If that guy is really here, Keith is probably not going to survive. He's that same demon who trampled the Japanese martial arts circle after all."

Although Chu Qi-Tian and his father both concluded that Ye Fan was still alive before coming to the rainforest, he couldn't help feeling incredibly shocked now that they crossed paths.

"Chu Tian-Fan, oh Chu Tian-Fan, we cross paths once more. I wanted to gather fighters to handle you after I was done with the mission, but I didn't expect to encounter you here. That's perfect since I can save a trip to China now. I can use the chance to finish you off here!"

After Chu Qi-Tian's brief shock, he quickly composed himself.

His eyes turned cold as he clenched his fists tightly and a murderous aura radiated from his face.

"Let's go."

Chu Qi-Tian gave his orders and gathered his men to leave.

"Young Master, what about those three people? Shall we bring them along?" asked his subordinate.

"They are the wrong people. Why should we take them along? Tell them to get lost!"

Chu Qi-Tian reprimanded him furiously. He finally realized that Ye Fan had unknowingly fooled him once more.

Chu Qi-Tian and his men left before long.

Lv Hua, Lu Yan-Xi and Kong Ming were released.

Chu Qi-Tian's men even patted Lv Hua's shoulder and chuckled as they said, "Sorry, dude. We went for the wrong guy!"

What the fuck?

What sort of explanation was that?!

Lv Hua promptly cried.

He suffered all that torture for nothing.

"That prick! Fuck his ancestors! Damn it!"

After Chu Qi-Tian and the others had gone far, Lv Hua continued to scream hysterically.

He felt incredibly indignant.

They had hung him up and whipped him until he was half-dead, and now they finally tell him that they had gotten the wrong guy?!

Lv Hua was so upset he wanted to kill himself by slamming his head against a wall.

He had never suffered such injustice in his life!
