A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) -
Chapter 1339 Regret and Shock
"Even if Ye Fan is less experienced, he is still a supreme grandmaster, so even though Brahma might be able to defeat him, he won't be able to kill him easily. Keep looking! I'm sure he's alive, so just keep looking!" Ye Qing-Tian's eyes were bloodshot and his deep voice sounded like the roar of a wild beast.
But anyone who listened closely could hear that Ye Qing-Tian's voice was trembling a little.
The first time he heard about Ye Fan was his battle with Mochizuki Kawa at Dongchang Lake.
From that moment on, Ye Qing-Tian start paying close attention to this emerging star.
They eventually met at Jiangdong's military zone.
That was the first time Ye Qing-Tian met Ye Fan in person and the first time he exchanged blows with him.
His arrogance, talent, determination, and temperament left a deep impression on Ye Qing-Tian.
From that moment on, he adored this young man and felt that there was hope for the Chinese martial arts circle now.
And it was precisely because he had such high hopes and admiration for Ye Fan, Ye Qing-Tian went all out and recommended Ye Fan to become a pillar of the nation.
He hoped that someone would be around to help support the Chinese martial arts circle after he died and become the country's backbone that could stand up against the rest of the world. He had such high hopes for Ye Fan, so he couldn't accept it if any accident befell Ye Fan.
Hence, he wanted to keep looking for Ye Fan.
But unlike how upset Ye Qing-Tian was, Kong Ming, Lv Hua, and Lu Yan-Xi were stunned by the news.
Kong Ming's face twitched, Lv Hua's pupils constricted, and even Lu Yan-Xi opened her eyes wide in surprise.
"G-god of War, what...what did you just say?"
"Did you...did you just say that country bumpkin is...a supreme grandmaster?"
"You mean...you mean he's the seventh pillar of the nation?!"
Kong Ming and the others were completely stunned.
They stared dead straight at Ye Qing-Tian as a tsunami of emotions flooded their hearts.
Their minds almost went blank.
"Oh my god... Ye Fan is a supreme grandmaster? How can that be? Isn't he only around 20 years old?" Lv Hua almost pissed in his pants and ended up stammering as he trembled.
He found it incredible that the young man from the countryside who came with them, the same person whom he had even scolded repeatedly, turned out to be a supreme grandmaster and one of the pillars of the nation!
"What kind of monster did I provoke?"
Lv Hua was at a loss from the shock.
He finally realized who the young man they had despised so much truly was.
Lv Hua wasn't alone. Even Lu Yan-Xi's eyes turned red as a rush of thoughts surged though her head.
"No wonder you had such arrogance and contempt towards everyone the entire time. No wonder you faced Brahma so fearlessly. I used to think you were just a grandmaster, but I had underestimated you. It turned out that you are a supreme grandmaster and the pillar of the nation! Ye Fan, oh Ye Fan, how did you end up hiding this so well? If you had told me sooner, I would never have given you the cold shoulder. I wouldn't have dumped you in the forest and left with Lv Hua," said Lu
Yan-Xi as she shook her head in self-deprecation.
Her voice was filled with deep disappointment and regret.
Kong Ming was incapable of staying calm either.
All this time, the pillars of the nation were Kong Ming's idols and lifelong ambition.
His greatest dream was to have a chat with one and ask for some pointers.
Kong Ming once thought that this dream would never get fulfilled in his lifetime.
But now, Kong Ming just discovered how close he once was to fulfilling his dream.
They had spent so much time together, from China to South America, from Jianghai all the way to the Amazon rainforest. Kong Ming had plenty of opportunities to seek his advice, but he ended up passing all of them up.
Kong Ming utterly regretted his actions
now.
"My greatest dream had been staring at me to my face all this time. It was all my fault for being blind. Now I have passed up the opportunity to talk to him."
The more Kong Ming thought about it, the sadder he felt. In the end, he couldn't help slapping himself.
The three of them finally realized exactly who the young man was after despising him for so long.
After feeling guilty for a long time, Kong Ming raised his head and looked at Ye Qing-Tian, "God of War, you are right. If Ye Fan is a supreme grandmaster, Brahma probably can't kill him on his own. Grandmaster Ye is probably still alive, so we should keep looking for him."
Gaia had yet to show up when Kong Ming and the others fled, so they didn't know Ye Fan had actually fought not one but two supreme grandmasters.
I agree. Let's keep searching," said Lu Yan-
Xi as well.
However, just as they were about to continue their search on the island, a silhouette flashed by.
The silhouette moved so quickly that Kong Ming and the others were incapable of detecting it.
But Ye Qing-Tian certainly detected its presence and instantly frowned as he shouted, "Hmm? Who's there? Stop right there!"
Ye Qing-Tian jumped into the air and went chasing after the silhouette.
Very quickly, he disappeared out of sight.
"Elder Kong, what's going on?"
"Was someone here?"
Lv Hua and the others were stunned and clueless about what happened.
Kong Ming said deeply, "Someone probably was. Otherwise, why would God of War react so strongly? Come on. Let's go over and check it out."
The three of them went chasing after them.
The chase went on for almost an entire day.
By the time Kong Ming and the others caught up with Ye Qing-Tian, they were already very far from the island.
"God of War, how did it go? Did you manage to catch up to him?" Kong Ming and the others were exhausted from the chase and gasped as they spoke.
Ye Qing-Tian shook his head, "He escaped."
"Huh?"
"He must be dreadfully powerful if he managed to escape you."
"Do you think it was Brahma?"
Kong Ming and the others were shocked by the news and asked worriedly.
Ye Qing-Tian went quiet with a sullen look in his eyes. No one knew what he was contemplating.
"God of War, what should we do now? Are you going to keep looking for Grandmaster Ye?" Kong Ming and the others asked after a brief silence. Rating the Translation Will Gain Two Pearls.
