A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) -
Chapter 1637
"That is all for Dragon Master's message. We shall be taking our leave now, Moon God!"
Not wanting to overstay their welcome, Gaius and Owen decided to leave immediately after delivering the message.
Ye Fan had ordered forthem to meet up with him at Mount Chumen.
Moon God simply stood there in silence and stared blankly into space outside Sanshin Organization.
The two Grandmasters that she had injured earlier could only endure the pain as they continued kneeling on the ground.
They were so terrified that neither of them dared to move nor say anything unless Moon God did.
After what seemed like forever, Moon God trembled a little as she regained her composure.
She then stared in the direction that Gaius and Owen went before going back into Sanshin Organization.
The inside of the building was filled with a faint fragrance from the old wooden furniture, and the signs of aging were clearly reflected on the old altar.
The Sanshin Organization had existed in Japan since ancient times, so every item in the building was at least a hundred years old.
Moon God had been feeling uneasy ever since Gaius and the others left.
Ye Fan's message kept repeating itself in her head as she stood there in the hall, and seeing the love knot bracelet in her hand only worsened things. Eventually, tears flowed down the sides of her cheeks.
"Eigetsu, are you still unable to get over him?" Moon God exclaimed with a huge sigh, her tone filled with pity and helplessness.
Being a god with absolute power, Moon God had always assumed there was nothing she couldn't change in this world.
However, she realized she was wrong as she had little to no control over human emotions.
I thought my guidance over the years had helped
Suzumiya Eigetsu forget about that boy from China, but I could clearly feel her heartache when I received word about him again.
"I'm sorry, Moon God. I really can't get over my master. I just can't bring myself to do it. Also, why would he return the love knot bracelet to me? Were those words meant to be a farewell message or something? Where is he going? Is he going to be in danger? I want to go see him, Moon God! I want to go see my master!"
Suzumiya Eigetsu's voice rang from deep within Moon God's mind.
The two of them had their consciousness fused together, and they even adopted a mentor-disciple relationship.
Suzumiya Eigetsu had been at peace for the past few years.
The last time she felt strong emotions was when she found out about Ye Fan ending up in the Boguia Rainforest.
Moon God could tell that he held a very special place in her heart, but she denied Suzumiya Eigetsu's request to see him anyway.
"Eigetsu, you mustn't behave impulsively. Never forget your identity and status, regardless of your past with him. You have become a god worshipped in Japan now, so you shouldn't be traveling across the seas just to see a boy in China."
"But I'm worried that Master may be in danger! I might never be able to see him ever again! Please let me see him, Moon God! I'll just peek at him from afar to confirm that he's okay!" Suzumiya Eigetsu's concern and longing for Ye Fan were incredibly obvious.
“That's enough, Eigetsu. Have you forgotten what you promised me before? This is the last time I'm saying this. Forget about him. You two are from completely different worlds, so you are unlikely to cross paths with him in the future. Besides, you heard what his subordinates said earlier. He has made it very clear that you and he are no longer master and servant. The return of the love knot bracelet signifies the end of your relationship with him. Take his subordinate's words as his final message for you and put an end to this. At the very least, it will be a peaceful one. From now on, his life and death will have nothing to do with you whatsoever."
Moon God's firm attitude completely removed any room for negotiation.
The relationship between Eigetsu and Ye Fan must end or it will become a nuisance in the future. Not only will her spirituality be affected, but it could also lead to huge losses for Japan's martial arts world in the future. A pure and mighty existence like her shouldn't be getting tangled up with some boy from China. Both her reputation as well as that of Japan's will be ruined if the word were to get out, and I will not let that happen! Had she not threatened me with suicide, I would've killed Ye Fan back then to remove this distraction from her life! Sparing his life is the biggest compromise I'll ever make. I will not allow her to go on like this.
Moon God then went back to meditating before the altar in an attempt to calm her mind, but images of Ye Fan simply kept flooding in whenever she closed her eyes.
He had always been so gentle, even when he was bidding her farewell earlier.
Ye Fan was the only one who managed to hit that soft spot in her heart, and he would probably be the only one who could do it.
The fragrance of sandalwood lingered in Sanshin Organization as the wind blew.
Moon God spent the rest of the day meditating surrounded by incense and listened to Buddhist mantras all night.
Even so, she still found herself thinking of him and missing his warmth no matter what she did.
The calm ocean that reflected the sky like a mirror was disturbed when two figures zoomed across its surface.
Their speed stirred up howling gales around them, and the burst of air beneath their feet formed huge waves with each step.
From a distance, it looked like a water dragon was surging through the ocean.
Those two figures were none other than Ye Fan and Meng Wanyu.
Mount Chumen and China were thousands of miles apart and separated by sea.
As time was running out, Ye Fan chose to run across the ocean instead of catching a flight at the airport.
Given his level of speed, even airplanes couldn't catch up to him.
Of course, Ye Fan was the only one crazy enough to even attempt such a stunt.
Meng Wanyu didn't even dare consider it an option as they had to literally run across the entire Pacific Ocean.
Even Supremes would probably get exhausted after a while, let alone someone like her.
However, Ye Fan insisted on proceeding with it and even brought her along with him.
As Meng Wanyu lacked the speed and stamina required, Ye Fan carried her in his arms while running.
The howling of the cold winds sounded like demons roaring at them, the ocean beneath them seemed like hell, and the huge waves resembled the devil's claws. Fearing that she would die in the middle of the ocean, Meng Wanyu clung tightly to Ye Fan and buried her head in his embrace.
He was her only source of comfort while traveling across the borderless ocean around them, and she held on to him like a drowning person would a lifebuoy.
