A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1608

"General Lu is right. Ms. Qiu's life is in critical danger. Under such circumstances, we must not act rashly." Wang Jiexi and Lei San nodded, both disagreeing with Han Dongmin's suggestion. While Han Dongmin might not have been in such a situation before, they had experienced it in the past.

They had seen Ye Fa's ability to resist guns and bullets.

Since Meng Wanyu dared to provoke Ye Fan, it meant that her powers should not be underestimated.

Naturally, they did not dare to take such a risk.

If they failed, they would probably have to follow Qiu Mucheng to the grave.

"What should we do? Do we just keep waiting? If Mr. Chu doesn't come before the three-day limit is up, what should we do? We'd need a plan, right?"

Han Dongmin was overwhelmed with worry.

Now that the issue had blown up, it would have a detrimental impact.

As the governor, he had to settle this matter properly, be it out of personal responsibility or gratitude to Ye Fan.

Otherwise, Han Dongmin would not be able to justify his decision.

"Dad, isn't General Lu the Chief Instructor of the military? Why don't we let him bring some top-notch weapons over? No matter how powerful that woman is, she'll fear missiles even if guns don't terrify her," suggested Han Shaojie, Han Dongmin's son.

Before Ye Fan rose to power, he used to be good friends with Han Shaojie.

Now that Ye Fan's wife had been kidnapped, Han Shaojie naturally joined the discussion.

Surprisingly, after Han Shaojie spoke, his father kicked him to the side.

"Get lost! What's wrong with your brain? A missile? Do you think that this is a battlefield? Not only will it create a negative impact on society, but Ms. Qiu will also die if the missile is released! Only a fool like you can think of such an idea."

Han Dongming was on the verge of fury. Glaring at his useless son, he felt a headache coming.

He did not know how he managed to have such a foolish son despite his own successes.

The fact that Ye Fan was buddies with his dumb son puzzled him even more.

After being scolded by Han Dongmin, Han Shaojie kept quiet. He went and hid amongst the crowd.

"General Lu, you are a very experienced man. What do you think we should do?"

Everyone turned their gaze to Lu Tianhe, who replied, "The only solution is to wait. Either we wait for Mr. Chu to return, or we wait for the War God Castle to take action!"

"The War God Castle?" When Lei San and Wang Jiexi heard that, they asked, "Will they help us?"

Lu Tianhe nodded. "I think they are likely to give us a hand."

"It's highly possible. Although there are some grudges between Mr. Chu and the War God Castle, didn't you say that the woman is from Chu Sect? The martial artists in China have always despised Chu Sect. Yet, that b*tch from Chu Sect is wreaking havoc in China! If the War God Castle finds out, they'll definitely intervene. The only thing worrying me is when they'll come. If the War God Castle comes after today, we can detain that b*tch from Chu Sect. However, we might fail to save Ms. Qiu," said Lu Tianhe grimly, a tone of worry creeping into his voice.

"Well, that's our only solution. I just hope that Mr. Chu can rush back in time."

Lei San and the rest heaved a long sigh before continuing to wait worriedly. Outside, dark clouds enveloped the sky, while thunder rumbled ominously. The sky was starting to darken and the atmosphere became increasingly gloomy.

At Yunwu Lake, the boat floated gently in the middle.

In a red dress, Meng Wanyu sat on the boat and waited quietly with her eyes closed.

Qiu Mucheng stayed silent too. All she did was gaze into the distance without saying anything.

On the banks, the crowd was making a huge ruckus.

With clenched fists, He Yurou stood on her tiptoes and stared intently at Mount Yunding. Will you come, Mr. Chu?

Everyone there was waiting for Ye Fan.

At Fenghai, a hundred miles away, there was a mountain towering over a wild plain.

The mountain stood majestically, its peak piercing through the clouds like a sword.

A man was standing at the peak of the mountain.

His face was handsome and his figure was lean. From how he dressed, he looked like a youth who had just taken his first step into society. There was still a hint of youthfulness on his dashing face. No one would have expected that this young man wielded power and authority sufficient to control the world.

The intimidating look in his brooding gaze was enough to make one submit to him.

He raised his head and saw the dark clouds hanging overhead, while streaks of lightning flashed across

the dark sky.

The thunder boomed resoundingly.

Anyone else would have scurried down the mountain in terror.

After all, it was stormy weather. If they were standing at a high altitude, it was easy for them to get struck by lightning. However, the man was not fearful at all.

In fact, there was a look of anticipation and delight on his face.

It was as if the traveler in the dark was going to see the light that he had been waiting for.

"Has the day finally come?"

The youth's voice sounded as his lips parted.

A stern look crossed his gaze as he bellowed solemnly, "To your positions!"

Boom!

It was as if the thunder had just awakened the sleeping universe.

Immediately after he spoke, multiple streaks of bright light appeared across the vast sky.

Several figures rapidly materialized in the sky, leaving a blur behind them.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Within a few seconds, the empty plains in front of the youth were filled with people.

"Respects from Gaius."

"Respects from Owen."

"All hail the Dragon Master!"

Boom!

The four Dragon Slayers greeted him respectfully, their voices so loud that they resounded across the universe.

The four people were the four Dragon Slayers who had been instructed by Ye Fan to train in seclusion for months.

Although only three months had passed, the four of them had gone through a dramatic change.

In the past, the four Dragon Slayers were like a ball of fire, ravaging the terrains of the universe.

Yet, they were now like swords hidden in the sheaths-their auras were restrained and they had returned to their original state.

These were the true powers of the Book of Celestial Cloud.

Over the past three months, Ye Fan followed the methods recorded in the Book of Celestial Cloud to train the four Dragon Slayers.

His aim was to increase his chances of victory in the upcoming battle with Chu Sect.

"You've improved rapidly over the past three months and have already mastered the Comprehensive Array Attack. However, diligent training alone is insufficient to perfect that technique. You need to borrow the powers of the universe!"

Ye Fan stood at the top of the mountain with his hands behind his back, his majestic voice echoing across the plains.

When Gaius and the rest heard that, they were confused. "Borrow the powers of the universe? How do we do that, Dragon Master?"

Ye Fan replied, "Naturally, I will teach you how. However, you must be mentally prepared. The process will be extremely painful. If you're scared, it's not too late to back out.”

Ye Fan stared at them.

However, their gazes were steady and piercing, showing no signs of retreating in the slightest.

When Ye Fan noticed that, he nodded. "Very good. There's a saying in China. The most perfect music can only flow through fingers that have bled. It is only after enduring the ordeals of hell that you can possess the powers capable of creating heaven. Now, I'm going to bestow upon you the power to create heaven!"
