A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1506 He's Got Sword Saint Terrified of Him Too

"The King of Fighters?" Ye Fan was slightly startled when he heard what Gaia had said. Then, he shook his head and smiled. "What an unhappy coincidence! Forget it then. Since he's the son of the King of Fighters, we won't have to contact his father. I know the man, after all. Why don't you deliver the King of Fighters' son to him in a package? The man's quite old. We should save him the trouble of coming to get his kid."

Ye Fan laughed softly. He wondered how the King of Fighters would react when he received the package.

"Alright! The Dragon Master really knows how to have fun," said Gaia as his laughter rumbled loudly on the other end of the line.

Having given his instructions to Gaia, Ye Fan ended the call.

This was simply a small incident of little significance. Ye Fan did not think too much about it. He headed to a nearby mall with Ye Yu-Yan after that with the intention of buying a gift for Xu Lei.

He had no idea that a red folder marked with the label "URGENT" had arrived at Mount Yan the moment he had landed at the airport.

"What did you just say? Ye Fan's in Yanjing? Again?"

Tang Hao gasped out loud when he heard that Ye Fan had reappeared in Yanjing. Alarm filled his eyes instantly.

Sword Saint had been cleaning his sword leisurely in the halls.

The level-headed and experienced warrior's hand trembled instinctively when he heard the news as well.

Even Sword Saint was frightened.

Ye Fan was nothing but trouble.

Regardless of where he went, he brought trouble along with him.

Tang Hao and the other supreme grandmasters had gotten scared of the young man.

"What's Ye Fan doing in Yanjing this time? Hasn't Lv Hua been put to death? Did that not satisfy him? Is he going to demand that we answer for our negligence? Is he not going to stop until he turns the whole world upside down?"

Tang Hao's face was filled with bitterness while his words heavy with exasperation and worry.

War God Castle had been put through so much grief because of Ye Fan.

They had only managed to appease the furious crowd and the martial artists of Jiangbei a few days ago.

They had barely enjoyed a few days' respite before Ye Fan was back again. Why was he back again anyway?

His reappearance naturally sent Tang Hao and the others into a panic.

It didn't matter why he was here. Nothing good was going to come out of it.

The King of Fighters was reading a book by the window while Tang Hao was complaining. The former suddenly rose to his feet and headed for the door without saying a single word. "Where are you going?" asked Tang Hao hastily.

"What else? I'm going to kick his ass! That punk's gone too far. Are we going to keep giving in to him?" Mo Gu-Cheng said darkly.

He had been putting up with Ye Fan for far too long. He had held back his impulse to teach the young man a lesson previously for the greater good.

But it had barely been a few days and here was Ye Fan, back in Yanjing trying to stir trouble for them again.

Who could put up with that?

Tang Hao grabbed Mo Gu-Cheng hurriedly when he heard what the latter had said.

"Don't get so worked up. I was just guessing. He might be here for a visit. Why don't you and Sword Saint stay here while I go look for him and find out why he's here? If he's truly here to make further demands, I won't stand by and do nothing. I'll deal with him before you will."

Having appeased the King of Fighters, Tang Hao instructed his men to get the car ready. He also contacted the various agencies in the city to find out where Ye Fan was right now.

Since the Jiangbei incident, War God Castle had designated Ye Fan as a person that warranted close watching.

They had instructed their intelligence agencies to inform them immediately should Ye Fan ever appear in Yanjing.

After Tang Hao left, Sword Saint and the King of Fighters tightened the security around Mount Yan and told the men to cease all activity in the vicinity.

Tension loomed over Mount Yan.

"What's going on? Are we going to war? Are we anticipating an attack on War God

Castle?"

These sudden deployments sent everyone in War God Castle into panic.

This was the first time they had prepared for what appeared to be battle.

The last time Ye Fan had stormed Mount Yan, War God Castle had not mounted any response in time because it had happened unexpectedly and suddenly.

"What about this? Does this look pretty?"

Somewhere in a shopping mall in the center of the city, Ye Yu-Yan had just changed into a dress and walked out of a dressing room.

She was flaunting her lovely figure before Ye Fan.

Ye Fan nodded and smiled. "It looks great. Lei and you share the same size. If it looks good on you, it should look good on Lei too. We'll have this one then. Miss, please pack this for us."

After going through the entire store, Ye Fan finally decided on a black dress for Xu Lei.

Ye Yu-Yan had just changed out of the dress when hordes of men swarmed into the mall.

They were dressed in suits and their faces were partially hidden behind sunglasses.

A murderous tension filled the mall as soon as they appeared.

"Cordon off this area. No one is to approach the area without my express permission." The person in charge of these men ordered.

The staff manning the counters around Ye Fan disappeared within moments.

Ye Fan and Ye Yu-Yan were the only two persons left in the place.

"Who are you? What do you want?"

Ye Yu-Yan appeared slightly cowed by

these men who had suddenly appeared and cleared the mall.

But she was the leader of the Green Dragon Force after all. She took no time to step forward and sweep her solemn gaze across the men standing before her.

No one paid her any heed though.

Everyone's eyes were on the young man before them.

"Yu-Yan, step back. You're not their match," Ye Fan said to Ye Yu-Yan. He seemed to know whom they were. He stared into the eyes of their leader. When he spoke next, his voice was filled with a threatening chill. "What's with all these men, Heavenly Grandmaster? What are you planning to do?"

"I should be asking you that!" Tang Hao blurted out in agitation. He seemed furious and anxious as he yelled at Ye Fan. "What do you want, Ye Fan? What exactly is it that you want? You've killed the Lv family and decimated a good half of the Jiangbei martial arts circle. You got your wish when

the martial arts court sentenced Lv Hua to death. War God Castle has decided not to pursue the matter too. What else do you want? Must you send the whole world into an upheaval? Is that what's going to finally satisfy you?"

Ye Fan was stunned. "I have no idea what you're talking about."

"Stop with that act of yours. Aren't you here in Yanjing to cause more trouble for us? Are you planning to storm Mount Yan and send War God Castle into utter chaos again? Do you have nothing better to do with your time?" Tang Hao said fiercely.

Ye Fan grew increasingly bewildered. "What are you talking about? I'm here to visit my younger sister. I've not caused any trouble for you at all."

"Stop trying to trick me. We've done our background checks. You're the only son. You have no sister. Your only cousin is standing next to you." Tang Hao wasn't convinced at all.

Ye Yu-Yan stepped in then to clear the

confusion in the air. "This is a misunderstanding. My cousin Ye Fan is here to visit a dear friend who's like a sister to him. There's no ulterior motive to his visit to Yanjing. Look at this dress. He means to give it to her as a gift."

Tang Hao froze. Ye Yu-Yan didn't look like she was lying. His former fury dissipated slightly. He turned towards Ye Fan again and asked. "Are you really here for a friendly visit and not to cause more trouble?" Ye Fan rolled his eyes.

He should be more mindful of his words.

Was Ye Fan some kind of terrorist in their eyes? Was he on some kind of national watchlist?

After Ye Fan explained repeatedly that he was truly here to visit family, Tang Hao finally let loose a long sigh of relief.

It had been a false alarm.

"You're visiting family! That's great! Get going then, and leave as soon as you're done. In fact, try not to come to Yanjing if you can. You've succeeded in instilling the fear of Ye Fan in us all. I get nervous whenever I see you now."
