A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1758

"You b*stard, how dare you speak so impudently right before your death?"

"You're nothing but an abandoned child. Can you really take all of us on with that crippled body of yours?"

Ye Fan's arrogant words infuriated his attackers, causing Chu Zhengliang and Chu Shen to curse at him in return. Amidst the incendiary atmosphere, the Chu Sect warriors clashed with Ye Fan.

Boom!

Upon impact, multiple explosions sent powerful aftershocks in every direction.

"We must win!"

"We have to win no matter what!"

"Kill Chu Tianfan!"

While the Chu Sect warriors engaged Ye Fan in an intense battle, the thousands of Chu Sect disciples enthusiastically cheered them on.

Just when everyone waited in anticipation for Ye Fan to be killed, the battle raged on without stopping.

The power emanating from Ye Fan's sword slashed apart the combined attacks just like a hot knife through butter.

One strike to cut open a path through death while another strike to illuminate the path forward.

Without holding anything back, Ye Fan mowed down his enemies with unshakeable force.

To him, the Chu Sect Fatal Moves and the Chu family warriors were no threat at all.

In fact, the Chu Sect elders and their subordinates couldn't even survive a single strike from Ye Fan.

All of them were easily subdued by his sword.

"H-How is this possible?"

Everyone present was dumbfounded.

They had never in their wildest dreams expected that the Chu Sect elites could be so easily defeated by Ye

Fan.

Just like the wind sweeping up the autumn leaves, Ye Fan continuously defeated the Chu Sect elders and all the Supremes from the Chu family effortlessly.

He was so skillful that the gulf between their strength was just too vast.

As the top fighter on the Sky Ranking, Ye Fan simply overwhelmed them with raw power.

Tang Yun and the Demonic Duo didn't participate in this attack. Not to mention, Ye Fan was also not in his best condition.

Even then, he still managed to decisively defeat all the elites of the Chu Sect.

That was how strong he truly was.

Even though many of his attackers were only a few places away from him on the Sky Ranking, the gap between their skills was like heaven and earth.

For example, Chu Zhengliang was ranked fourth because that was the limit of his strength.

In contrast, Ye Fan was ranked first due to it not having a higher ranking than the first.

If there were a rank beyond the Sky Ranking, Ye Fan would be ranked right below God Realm.

Having had their attacks neutralized, Chu Shen and the other elders of the Chu Sect puked blood upon retreat.

Pressing his advantage, Ye Fan spun his sword in Chu Zhengliang's direction.

"Y-You... You can't kill me! I'm the head of the Chu family and your uncle. I'm actually your father's younger brother..."

After collapsing onto the ground while throwing up blood, Chu Zhengliang looked up and saw Ye Fan bearing down on him.

At that moment, he was so terrified that he even peed his pants.

After all, there was no place for him to hide.

Moreover, Chu Yuan was out of reach, having just vomited blood from his own injuries.

As for the rest, all of them had been defeated.

Left with no countermeasure, Chu Zhengliang sprawled on the ground with only fear and the desire to survive left within him.

He was cognizant that his life was in Ye Fan's hands at that very moment.

"Kill you? Chu Zhengliang, don't you think taking your life would be too light a punishment after the terrible deeds you have done? Today, I will sever your limbs and let you suffer the sensation of a burning inferno for the rest of your life!"

As Ye Fan's frosty words echoed throughout the land, he made four swift strikes with his sword.

The first pierced Chu Zhengliang's right hand before the second was thrust through his left. "Argh! Stop! Please stop!"

Amidst Chu Zhengliang's agonizing screams, Ye Fan stabbed him in all four limbs.

Despite the incessant flow of blood that drenched Chu Zhengliang's entire body, Ye Fan made sure to keep him alive by avoiding his main arteries.

Finally, he thrust his sword into Chu Zhengliang's abdomen, destroying all the energy and training he had accumulated throughout the years.

Consequently, Chu Zhengliang rolled in his own pool of blood and shrieked repeatedly in excruciating pain.

Even then, Ye Fan wasn't done with him yet.

With his brows furrowed, Ye Fan stared down at the bloody figure in front of him. "Chu Zhengliang, when you and your son were trying to hunt me and my mom down, and when you dug Angie's eyes out, did it ever cross your mind that you would end up like this?"

"Kill me... Kill me, please... Quick, kill me!"

Standing proudly in the sky, Ye Fan broke out a smirk.

At his feet, Chu Zhengliang was crying out in agony. With his limbs severed and abdomen devastated, he was no different from a cripple. Hence, all he wanted right then was for Ye Fan to quickly end his misery.

Obviously, Ye Fan wasn't going to grant him his wish.

Ever since he found out that Chu Zhengliang had brutally dug out Angie's eyes, he had decided to punish them with a life of remorse.

"Chu Zhengliang, forthe heinous crimes that you have committed, I will pass judgment upon you on behalf of Mr. Yunyang. I want you to redeem yourself by reflecting upon and regretting your actions for the rest of your life."

Amidst his sneer, Ye Fan began radiating the power within him.

Subsequently, the elemental force from Invoke the Celestial Cloud began culminating within his abdomen.

At the same time, he gestured with two fingers according to the secret technique within the Book of Celestial Cloud.

"With a bone-piercing sword and soul-scorching fire... Turn three lifetimes into eternity... Mark of the Flaming Sword... Burn! Burn! Burn!" Ye Fan chanted into the air.

Upon completion of his incantation, the sky suddenly split open.

The next moment, a fiery inferno ignited around Ye Fan, causing his body to glow red.

Soon, the fiery force culminated in front of him until a sword forged from pure energy emerged.

At that moment, Ye Fan looked like a god preparing to pass judgment with the fiery sword in his hand. After giving Chu Zhengliang a look, he swung his sword down.

Whoosh!

As the flames of the sword pierced the sky, it landed on Chu Zhengliang's body in a flash.

Struck by a colossal force, Chu Zhengliang was sent flying thousands of meters away. Finally, he was crucified on the pinnacle of Mount Chumen by the sword, just like a criminal sentenced to death. The only difference was that he was still alive, bawling and struggling helplessly.

"Arghhh! Kill me! I can't bear this anymore. Kill me, I beg of you!" Chu Zhengliang yelled pitifully.

At that moment, he felt as if he was being tormented in Hell.

Not only was he suffering physical pain, but his soul was equally tortured.

All he could feel was a raging fire roasting his soul from right underneath him.

It felt like ten of thousands of ants were tearing into his flesh and spirit at the same time.

Furthermore, he also felt as if he was being tied to a millstone where he would be ground to a pulp before being reconstituted to be ground again.

The suffering caused him to wallow between despair and anguish.

Even though he wanted to commit suicide, the power of the seal named "Mark of the Flaming Sword" prevented him from doing it.

The seal was one of the techniques from the Book of Celestial Cloud used for judgment.

Whoever had the seal seared upon them would suffer a fate worse than death.

Consequently, it was the most terrifying punishment the Chu family ever had.

Therefore, the Chu family's ancestors would only use it when they were passing judgment on hardcore criminals.

Obviously, when the Book of Celestial Cloud was lost, the curse-like judgment technique disappeared together along the passage of time.
