A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1736

The Demonic Duo overestimated themselves.

Ye Fan did not even flinch when they dashed toward him.

Instead, he retaliated in full force, giving off a golden light this time.

The reverberation generated from his body hit the two old fighters, throwing them off far away.

Bang!

An ear-shattering noise followed the impact, accompanied by a wave of turbulent wind.

The duo was propelled outward like two stray leaves carried away by a tornado.

"Not even the Demonic Duo was able to stop Ye Fan?"

The Chu family was losing it.

The Demonic Duo were top five on Sky Ranking.

No one would have expected them to be defeated even before they attacked.

They finally realized the stark difference in terms of ability between the champion and the other on the ranking.

"How is this even possible?"

The Demonic Duo stumbled and rolled off to the ground.

They looked at each other, surprised by how strong Ye Fan was.

They had also suffered a similar loss a month ago, but it was when Ye Fan was using a technique called Invoke the Celestial Sky, which happened to be a technique passed down within the Chu family.

Back then, the Demonic Duo admitted defeat, since the technique Ye Fan used was not a common one, and the Demonic Duo knew they stood no chance when Ye Fan harnessed that trick, but it was different this time around.

He did not employ the same technique this time, but still, he was able to vanquish them.

This was not something they were willing to accept.

They could not believe someone so much younger than them could outdo them. Yet, reality proved them wrong.

The Demonic Duo had lost their credibility as the guardians of the family to continue in a contest with Ye Fan.

When Ye Fan saw that he had conquered the two, he cast his gaze toward the family residence.

The hundreds and thousands of family members were frightened to the core when they met Ye Fan's ferocious glare.

They stared at him in horror, their steps retreating uncontrollably.

"Chu Zhengliang! Where are you?" Ye Fan shouted.

His violent voice echoed in the air, but no one answered.

Ye Fan extended his hand, getting ready to strike just anyone from the family.

When they saw him raise his hand, they were overcome by dread.

"Please, don't..."

"We don't want to die." "Please have mercy!"

Fear, despair, and anguish gripped the whole Chu family when death was close.

Some of them even started sobbing as they begged Ye Fan to let them go. Others scrambled to the closest exit they could find, but Ye Fan was unmoved by their entreats.

He stared at them with his face cold like ice as if he was just looking at some ants crawling on the ground.

Just as he struck a blow at the people before him, a voice pierced through the air.

"Stop!"

A flare of purple light came from a sword and a clash followed.

Before anyone could do anything, the purple sword cut Ye Fan's palm.

The moment of the direct collision caused waves of strong winds in the Chu residence, breaking trees and toppling walls. Members of the Chu family were thrown off by the momentum, albeit the impact not being fatal.

The purple sword, on the other hand, did not stop right there. It traveled down Ye Fan's body, ripping his clothes as it left a red trail of blood on his arm. When the people came back to their senses again, they thought help was already here. They gasped fiercely for air, looking in the direction of Mount Chumen.

Ye Fan turned around and looked over toward a distant place.

He could feel a strong presence approaching.

True enough, someone in a purple robe led an army of men toward him.

She walked with light steps and was wearing a crown on her head.

She took everyone's breath away. She was still as fetching as usual, and her beauty was captivating.

Some said God was always fair, and that when he closed a door for you, he would always open another one. However, one look at this woman was enough to doubt if this statement was true because she seemed to embody perfection.

She came under the spotlight as a legendary figure ever since she joined the martial arts world.

Not only was she attractive, she was also powerful.

She was the epitome of God's flawless creation.

She was none otherthan the head of the Chu Sect, Tang Yun.

Her appearance had everyone falling to their knees.

The whole assembly, including the Chu family, fell at her feet in marvel. "Ms. Tang!" they greeted in unison.

Tang Yun stood forth amidst the people like a queen among her courtiers.

However, someone stood erected when everyone else went on their knees.

His was like a scorching fire, igniting the whole mountain.

Ye Fan was determined to not succumb to the pressure, yet he looked particularly lonely and small among the host of people.

He shared a look with Tang Yun, still refusing to bow.

They finally met again, but there were neither traces of fondness nor gentleness in his eyes.

An unbearable silence persisted as none of them spoke.

It was as if time stopped.

The wind died down, and the grass stood still. Everything seemed to have lost its color that instant, leaving the man and woman in their own world.

Three years had passed since they first met at the Chu residence.

When they saw each other again at the same old place again after these years, both of them were at a loss for words. It was as if ages had passed since their first encounter, and things were so different now. "Why?" Tang Yun broke the silence. "Why did you come here?”

Her tone was harsh and cold, yet despite her forbidding demeanor, memories of what happened a

month ago flashed back in her mind.

They were at this exact place when Ye Fan left.

At his departure, he told her they should never meet each other again.

Back then, they both thought that would be their last goodbye, but cruel fate brought them together again.

A month later, they ran into each other again on Mount Chu.

"Why?" Ye Fan roared in return. "I should be the one asking this question, Tang Yun. You gave meyour word a month ago, saying that the Chu family would stand by their promise. You vouched nothing would befall Angie, but look at what happened!"

Ye Fan was livid when he saw Tang Yun in person. He was here for answers.
