A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1406 It Wasn't Me

Sheer terror might have stopped Brahma from stepping forward. Instead, he decided to remain silent.

King Folo was the one who frowned and spoke up. "May I ask who you are and why you have come seeking for Brahma?"

Wary of the young woman's abilities, the Indian martial artists did not wish to provoke her with harsh words and instead, treated her like a guest.

But the young woman did not reciprocate in turn.

"I'll ask you again," her icy voice rang out once more. "Which one of you is Brahma?"

"My Lady, do you not find your behavior slightly inappropriate?" King Folo was clearly annoyed how unreasonable the young woman appeared to be. "You are on Indian soil, which is under the protection of the Indian martial arts circle. You trespassed our lands, offered no apology for your trespassing and made unreasonable demands of us. You are disrespecting me as well as the Indian martial arts circle. No matter who you may be, please mind your manners when you're making your requests!"

King Folo was one of the leaders of the Indian martial arts circle. He was naturally insulted by the young woman's rudeness.

"Mind my manners?" The young woman raised her eyebrow. "Sure, I'll show you my manners!"

A loud buzz erupted in the skies.

The colorful shimmer of a blade lit the distant skies before slashing towards King Folo and the others at lightning speed.

A fight erupted instantly.

"What a powerful attack! Watch out, everyone!"

King Folo and the others were alarmed at how powerful the young woman's blade was and hastily retreated.

Yet, the speed at which the attack was unleashed was simply too quick for them to dodge. Waves of power swept across the heavens at lightning speed. They could do nothing but counter it directly.

"Folo Mark!" King Folo hastily yelled upon seeing the incoming slash of the blade, his fingers folding a series of seals as he chanted furiously.

Beams of gold light surged from his palms.

They gathered and transformed into a palm that then smashed straight into the blade.

BOOM!

A deafening explosion erupted in the heavens.

The forces of both attacks disintegrated upon their collision.

King Folo was driven back by the shockwaves from the blade's attack, staggering backwards dozens of steps.

The young woman remained hovering in midair, exactly where she had been standing a moment ago.

"What? Was King Folo just driven back by her attack?"

Brahma and the others were shocked by the sight.

King Folo might be an old man, but he was as strong a fighter as Brahma and his equal.

Yet, a powerful martial artist like him had failed to gain the upper hand against his opponent.

As everyone was reeling from their shock, the young woman hovering in midair struck with her blade again.

A pale green light shot across the heavens as she sent her blade slashing.

Within a blink of an eye, thousands of beams of light surged from her blade and filled the heavens.

The display of power was breathtaking and left everyone else shivering with fear.

"Oh no! King Folo seems to be in danger! Come on, everyone, let's attack together. We have to help King Folo bring down the enemy!"

These were the most powerful martial artists in the Indian martial arts circle and it didn't take them long to realize that King Folo wasn't going to be the young woman's match. The five martial artists attacked instantly, unleashing a flurry of powerful attacks simultaneously.

"Agni Blade!"

"Para Palm!"

"Vidyut's Move!"

Deafening explosions erupted in the heavens as everyone launched into their attacks.

King Folo, who had been driven back earlier, threw himself back into the fight as well after he had steadied himself, releasing a powerful attack of his own.

The five Indian martial artists had the young woman cornered.

The force of countless attacks gathered and collided with the force of her blades.

The impact of the collision was akin to that of a meteor smashing into earth.

Rocks shattered, trees were snapped into half and flung into the distance.

A good half of Indra's manor was nearly leveled.

Gaping crevices split the ground beneath their feet and stretched out into all corners of the manor.

Yet shockingly, despite their joint efforts, they did not manage to stop the onslaught of their enemy's attack at all.

Her blades swept across the manor with the force of a strong autumn wind and they were but fragile autumn leaves, hapless against what was to come. The stalemate was momentary. In the next moment, her blades swept past their attacks relentlessly.

Their defenses were broken through, and King Folo and the others were hit squarely by the young woman's blades and injured seriously. The force of the attack sent them flying into the distance, blood spilling from their lips.

"How...how is that possible?"

Everyone was reeling with shock.

King Folo trembled with terror while Brahma widened his eyes with alarm.

They found it incredulous. Despite their numbers, they had failed to stop one woman.

These were men who were the most powerful martial artists in India.

Yet, they had been thoroughly thrashed by a single woman.

The woman before them had the power to rival the entire Indian martial arts circle.

Heavens.

Who the hell was she?

Everyone was moaning inwardly as blood flowed freely from their lips.

The fear in their eyes intensified as they stared at the woman before them.

'Til ask one last time. Which one of you is Brahma? I'll kill every last one of you if you don't answer me!"

The young woman's icy voice filled the air once again after she had thoroughly thrashed the Indian martial artists.

Her threatening words sent shivers coursing down their spines.

Brahma couldn't keep his silence any longer. He stepped forward with a pale face.

"I am. My Lady, why are you..." stuttered

Brahma fearfully as he tried to ask the woman what she wanted with him.

She didn't let him finish though and instead silenced him by slashing at him with her blade.

"So, you're Brahma. Well, I'm here to send you off."

With a singular slash of her sword, numerous blades of light surged forward and rushed at Brahma.

Brahma nearly wetted his pants.

"My Lady, what are you doing? We have no grudge against each other. Why do you wish to kill me? What did I do to offend you?" he wailed as he desperately evaded her attacks.

Her voice could freeze lava. "You didn't offend me at all. But you killed someone whom you shouldn't have and now, you're going to pay with your life."

Brahma understood everything then.

She was here because of Ye Fan.

That made him feel worse.

"My Lady, I've been framed. I didn't kill Ye Fan. All I did was injure him. I didn't kill him. Someone took him away while he was still alive. Even if he were dead, he would have died by the hands of Tang Yun, the sect leader of Chu Sect. This has nothing to do with me," wailed Brahma as he frantically insisted on his innocence.

The multiple blows from the woman's blade landed on him.

Brahma spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed onto the ground. The prosthetic limb that he had just gotten had been torn from his injury-riddled body.
