A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) -
Chapter 1410 You're Tang Yun?
The grand hall was in utter chaos.
Martial artists were sprawled everywhere with blood staining their lips.
The sight had various important personalities who had been invited to the funeral reeling with shock and terror.
They were truly terrified that the funeral that they were attending might end up being their own.
"What's going on with Chu Sect?"
"Aren't they supposed to be the most powerful martial arts sect in the whole world?"
"How did their enemies manage to breach their defenses?"
"Are their guards all useless pieces of trash?"
Guests huddled in corners amidst the ruins of the hall, terrified and furious and hurling curses.
This was a complete disaster and they had nothing to do with it.
If they had known that this was going to happen, they would rather die than attend the funeral.
The chief elder of Chu Sect thought the same.
He glared furiously at the young woman before him.
"My Lady, a word of advice to you. If you do not wish to be hunted down by Chu Sect or slain by the sword of our sect leader, apologize immediately and leave right now. Otherwise, you'll be killed when our sect leader Tang Yun turns up!" thundered the old man.
This was the greatest insult that Chu Sect had ever suffered.
Since the sect had been founded, they had not suffered the humiliation of being stormed and beaten in their own home.
"Tang Yun? Well, she's the one I'm looking for. Get her to come out immediately!" The young woman's furious voice rang out, the chill in her voice as cold as the wintry winds.
The temperature in the hall plummeted sharply.
It was clear that this young woman harbored an intense, murderous hate towards Tang Yun.
"What? You...you're here for our sect leader?"
The chief elder had thought that the young woman might be cowed when he brought up Tang Yun and be frightened into a retreat.
But her reaction had been beyond his expectation.
The mention of Tang Yun's name had not cowed the woman but incited further murderous rage.
In fact, she had stormed Chu Sect for Tang Yun!
The young woman couldn't be bothered with the chief elder at all.
In her eyes, these masses of people were but ants.
She looked up and stared deep into the halls. Her frosty voice rang out once again.
"Tang Yun, come out and face me. Otherwise, I'll kill everyone on this mountain."
An icy, murderous rage erupted from the young woman and swept across the halls.
The young woman unsheathed her sword once again.
In a blink of an eye, a flaring light took the shape of a blade and slashed towards the elders of Chu Sect.
Everyone was certain that should the attack land, these elders would either be killed instantly or severely maimed.
"No!"
"Please, don't!"
"Sect Leader, save us!"
"Save us, Sect Leader!"
Wails of terror filled the air.
As despair colored the eyes of these men and women, a sudden streak of purple dashed across the heavens and collided with the young woman's blade.
A loud explosion erupted in the halls, sending winds howling and dust flying in the air as blades clashed.
The roof was ripped off the hall.
Then, everything stilled.
Amidst the wind and sand, the silhouette of a beautiful woman appeared in their sight.
"It's the Sect Leader!" "It's our sect leader, Tang Yun!"
"Sect Leader Tang Yun is here!"
"That woman is dead meat!"
The sight of Tang Yun sent everyone cheering loudly.
They fell to their knees and gazed at their sect leader with awe and adoration.
She was the epitome of power and authority, so she did not have to utter a single word at all. Her silent presence was enough to send tens of thousands of men to their knees. They submitted willingly to her!
It was as if Tang Yun were no longer a mere woman to them but a god.
"You're finally here, Sect Leader!"
"This woman barged into our sect and hurt our men."
"Sect Leader, you have to make her pay for what she's done. You have to kill her and make sure no one else dares to disrespect
Chu Sect!"
"Sect Leader, please kill her and save Chu Sect's reputation!"
Like the rising and ebbing of waves in the ocean, voices rose and fell in the hall as these men voiced their pleas, gathering finally in a huge storm that filled the air. Standing in the eye of the storm was their unearthly, beautiful sect leader, elegant, dignified and unattainable, a solitary snow lotus in a snow storm.
Tang Yun looked up and stared straight into the eyes of the other young woman.
Everyone could feel the clash of will that took place the moment their eyes met. The fight between them both had begun.
"Why have you stormed Chu Sect?" Tang Yun's voice, lined with fury, finally sounded in the air after a bout of silence.
"Are you the sect leader of Chu Sect, Tang Yun?" The woman in green ignored Tang Yun's question and instead asked her own.
"I have a question for you. Did you kill the Chinese young man called Ye Fan?"
What?
"Ye... Ye Fan?"
Her words were like a boulder crashing into the ocean, stirring waves of shock amidst the crowd.
"Ye Fan?"
"So, she isn't here for the sect leader. She's here to avenge Ye Fan!"
"How is that possible?"
"That scoundrel was a nobody from the countryside. How could he have come to know someone as powerful as this young woman?"
"What did he do? Why would such a powerful young woman risk her own life to storm Chu Sect and avenge his death?"
Chu Qi-Tian, who had been huddling in a corner, widened his eyes in disbelief.
"No, that's impossible. No woman would do this much for me. Why would anyone do this much for a nobody like Ye Fan? What has he done to deserve this?" Chu Qi-Tian growled with jealousy and resentment as his eyes reddened with envy.
His nails sank into his flesh as he clenched his fists tightly.
Chu Qi-Tian had never deemed Ye Fan worthy of his attention.
He had been a bastard child born of a lowly woman from the village. He had been beneath Chu Qi-Tian's notice.
But his defeat in the Amazon rainforest had made Chu Qi-Tian realize that Ye Fan had become more powerful than he was.
The appearance of this strange woman was a second blow to Chu Qi-Tian's ego.
He was the young master of the Chu family and yet women would rather choose a village boy over him.
The chief elder and the rest from Chu Sect were equally stunned.
They had been hunting for Ye Fan in order to avenge the death of their elder.
Before they could get their vengeance, someone had come storming their place, seeking revenge for Ye Fan instead.
"Who is Ye Fan? Where is he from? Why would someone so powerful seek vengeance on his behalf?" The chief elder's eyes widened with fear. Tang Yun too, was shocked when she realized that the young woman before her had stormed the sect for Ye Fan. Disbelief flickered in her eyes.
