A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1411 You Shouldn't Have Killed Him

"Are you here to avenge his death? I've heard that Ye Fan came from a poor family. There are no powerful families to back him up. Who is he to you? Why would you incur the wrath of Chu Sect for him?" Tang Yun's smooth brow was furrowed by a frown. An unfathomable emotion lined her cool and seemingly dispassionate voice.

No one noticed how Tang Yun had begun to look at the woman in the green differently after the latter had declared her intentions.

It was as if she were looking at someone who was trying to snatch her favorite toy from her.

"What does that have to do with you? All you need to know is that I'm here to kill you!"

The young woman didn't waste any more time on talking. She knew that the person before her was Tang Yun. She launched into another attack.

Beams of green light rushed into the heavens and filled every corner of the hall.

Tang Yun wasn't going to just stand there and do nothing while someone attacked her.

With a flip of her sleeve, her sword appeared in her hand.

Waves of icy chill enveloped her blade and surged outward.

The two powerful young women charged each other.

A deafening thunder rumbled in the halls.

Countless blows were exchanged.

The two young women appeared evenly matched as they engaged in an intense battle.

Chu Qi-Tian and the others watched as their fight on the ground moved to a fight in the sky, moving from the mountain where Chu Sect was located to thousands of miles in the distance.

"Heavens!"

"I can't believe it. She managed to hold her ground in a fight with our sect leader!"

"Who is she?"

"Where's Chu Qi-Tian? That's right! Where is he? Tell him to get out here! Didn't he say that Ye Fan's a nobody with no connections? Does this look like he's got no connections?" bellowed the chief elder furiously as he vented his anger on Chu Qi-Tian.

If Chu Qi-Tian hadn't misled them with misinformation, things wouldn't have spiraled out of control.

"That damn Chu Qi-Tian! He's ruined all my plans!" growled the chief elder furiously.

If he had known that Ye Fan wasn't any ordinary guy and known how much trouble killing him would bring Chu Sect, he wouldn't have sent his men to kill Ye Fan so thoughtlessly.

He would have come up with a better plan before taking any action.

Because of Chu Qi-Tian's misinformation, Chu Sect had lost a few grandmasters and now, Ye Fan's allies had stormed Chu Sect to avenge his death.

It didn't matter if Tang Yun won the fight in the end. Chu Sect had already lost.

The reputation that they had built over a hundred years had been destroyed.

While the chief elder stewed in his fury, Tang Yun and her opponent had taken their fight thousands of miles away, over the ocean.

All around them was the sky, filled with the cries of falcons and seagulls. Beneath their feet was the rush of ocean waves and the relentless ocean winds.

Floating above the vast ocean were these two young women, one dressed in a purple dress and as beautiful as the rare snow lotus on the highest mountain, the other with her long black hair flowing in the sea breeze and as lovely as a goddess

descended upon the earth.

They were equal in beauty and power, yet carried themselves so differently.

They were none other than Tang Yun and the young woman in green who had stormed Chu Sect.

"I'm going to ask you again. Who are you to Ye Fan? He's never told me he knew a beautiful and powerful woman like you." The look in Tang Yun's eyes was cold with rage. She probably couldn't sense the notes of jealousy in her voice.

"He's never told you, has he?" The other young woman laughed. "Who are you to him anyway? Why should my Master tell you anything about me?"

"Your Master?" Tang Yun froze momentarily in shock.

A thought struck her then. She nearly stomped her foot in fury.

"That jerk! How dare he fool around and keep a female servant behind my back! I'm going to cleave him into half with my sword the next time I see him!" Tang Yun was absolutely livid.

The woman in green seemed puzzled by Tang Yun's reaction.

She could sense the strange looks that the sect leader of Chu Sect had been giving her. The latter's attitude towards Ye Fan seemed baffling as well.

But Ye Fan was dead. There wasn't any point in quibbling about minor details like that.

The look in the woman's eyes grew cold as power gathered around her sword.

"Tang Yun, we bear no grudge against each other. But you shouldn't have killed him. Everyone thinks that he is alone and friendless, and that he had no allies. You think that no one would avenge him even if he were killed? Well, let me tell you now that you are all wrong. My master's got a vast army who's there for him. I am that army! I possess the strength of ten

thousand men! If the Indian martial arts circle had killed him, I would have leveled the Indian martial arts circle. If Chu Sect were the one who killed him, then I'll level Chu Sect. He protected me in the past, so now, I'm going to avenge his death!"

Her words were resolute and filled with determination.

Waves of power erupted from her person and gathered around her like a storm.

She slowly raised the sword in her hand.

The energies of the heaven and earth rushed towards her, as if summoned.

Tang Yun simply stood there, frozen to the spot.

All she could hear was what the young woman had just said.

After a long moment, she shook her head and smiled self-deprecatingly. "I've lived an extraordinary life. I thought I could see through everyone and everything, but you seem to be the only exception, Ye Fan. How many secrets have you been keeping from me?"

Ye Fan had appeared so insignificant and unimportant.

She had always viewed him through the eyes of one who was superior to and more powerful than him.

She had looked at him like a mountain looking down at the grass at its feet. When the mountain gazed down upon the grass, it could see the latter in its entirety. But no matter how hard the grass looked, it could never see the whole mountain and its peak.

But Tang Yun had been wrong all this while.

The grass had a vast network of roots hidden deep inside the earth, one so vast that that the mountain seemed tiny in comparison.

Like the mountain, Tang Yun too was shocked by the unexpected vast and hidden network of connections that Ye Fan

had.

She turned and began to make her way back to the sect.

She didn't seem interested in fighting anymore.

"What's the meaning of this? Are you going to just let me kill you?" The woman before her appeared puzzled by Tang Yun's actions.

"There is no point in us fighting. He's not dead. I did stab him with my sword, but I also gave him medicine that would neutralize my attack. Instead of wasting your efforts trying to avenge him, why don't you find out where he is?"
