A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1771

"It looks like I'm going to die today," Ye Fan mocked himself upon detecting the prowess of the three people outside the cave.

Despair colored his handsome features.

Having given up, he sat there and waited for the experts of the Chu Sect to arrive.

Considering how powerful they were, he was fully aware that whatever he did would be futile.

With his current strength, he could not even put up a fight against a wild dog, much less a Grandmaster.

Just like that, Ye Fan sat in the cave and quietly anticipated their arrival. He waited for them to enter the cave, discover him, and bring him back to the Chu Sect.

At that moment, a few loud booms sounded outside the cave.

On the heels of that, a series of explosions thundered outside.

Later on, silence returned to his surroundings.

"Huh? What happened?" Ye Fan, who was hiding in the cave, was very confused.

He tried his best to move to the entrance and see what was happening.

However, he had barely taken a few steps before Gaius appeared at the entrance.

Behind him were the other Dragon Slayers.

When the four of them saw Ye Fan, their eyes reddened instantly.

"Master, y-you..."

Gaius and the rest stood rooted to the spot and stared at the man in front of them in disbelief.

They could not believe that all-powerful Chu Tianfan, the Hall Master of the Dragon God Hall, had fallen into such a miserable state.

There were blood and injuries all over his body.

His initially handsome face was completely drained of color due to feebleness.

Is he still Dragon Master? Is he still Chu Tianfan, who used to strike terror in everyone's heart?

If it were not for the fact that he could still see Ye Fan's face clearly, Gaius would have thought that the person in front of him was an old man who had one foot in the grave.

Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!

Gaius and the other three fell to their knees.

As their heavy bodies slammed onto the ground, the rocks disintegrated, and the entire mountain shook.

When Gaius and the rest, who had experienced all sorts of hardships in the world, kneeled, tears streamed down their cheeks.

"Master, Earth God, at your service..."

"Fire God, at your service..."

"Please punish us for being late to your rescue, Master!"

"Please punish us, Master!"

Boom!

The four of them prostrated themselves, tears trickling down their faces incessantly.

When they slammed their foreheads against the ground, holes were formed from the impact.

At that moment, Gaius and the rest were filled with anguish and remorse.

They blamed themselves for not showing up on time to assist Ye Fan, causing him to be severely injured.

Ye Fan merely laughed as he stared at them.

His weak voice sounded. "Why did you guys come? Who told you that I'm here?"

Perhaps because he was too weak, he coughed out another mouthful of blood when he reached the end of his sentence.

At that sight, Gaius and the rest panicked even more. "Master, don't speak anymore. Here's the medicine Junie told me to bring. It should be able to help you recover your strength faster. However, I don't know how effective the medicine can be, considering your serious injuries."

As Gaius spoke, he quickly passed a bottle to Ye Fan and urged him to take the pills.

Soon, those pills transformed into wisps of pure energy, slowly nourishing the latter's battered body.

Although the effects were not significant, the medicine at least helped him regain some of his strength.

Gritting his teeth, Ye Fan could stand up slowly and walk.

"Master, you can't stay here for long. When I came, the Chu Sect was searching for you all over the mountain. Let's bring you out of here first. You'll be safe once we return to Jiangdong."

As they were still at the Chu Sect's base, their men were everywhere.

Hence, Gaius and the rest had to bring Ye Fan out of there as quickly as possible.

He would be much safer once he was back in China.

The two places were thousands of miles apart. Furthermore, China was the base of the War God Castle, and Jiangdong was Ye Fan's turf.

An outsider could never defeat someone on their own territory, so it would be more difficult for the Chu Sect to capture Ye Fan once he was back in Jiangdong.

"Let's go!"

Since they could not afford to delay it any longer, Gaius immediately carried Ye Fan on his back after the latter regained some of his energy. With that, the five of them hurriedly headed out of the cave. However, the moment they stepped out of the cave entrance, they felt countless powerful auras rushing toward them.

Su Muqiu's expression changed, and he hastened to instruct Gaius. "D*mn it! Someone's coming! Gaius, leave with Master first. We'll block their path here."

"Leave? Can you leave? You've been besieged, Chu Tianfan. It's impossible for you to escape today!"

The commotion earlier had naturally attracted the attention of the nearby members of the Chu Sect.

Noises were heard as dozens of their fighters surrounded the area.

Amongst the six people leading the group, even the weakest was almost on par with someone holding the title of Supreme. The most powerful one was Tang Xian, the head of elders of the Chu Sect. His ability was in the top ten of the Sky Ranking, even surpassing Gaius and the rest.

The others were all elders from the Chu Sect.

When they heard the commotion, they led their men over and surrounded the place.

As expected, Ye Fan was right there.

"What should we do now? We can't seem to escape." Gaius paled with fear.

Even Owen's expression was grim.

"We have no choice but to break through them by force. Furthermore, we have to be quick! Otherwise, we'll attract even more skilled fighters over. If the head of Chu Sect arrives, we'll be doomed," he stated solemnly.

The four of them exchanged looksand nodded, prepared to unleash the most powerful technique to break through the Chu Sect's encirclement.

"Gaius, you're the most important one here!

Remember, no matter what happens later, find an opportunity and rush out with Master. The three of us will try our best to secure more time for you." Owen reminded Gaius again.

Gaius nodded. "Understood!"

After their discussion, the four of them no longer hesitated and released their auras instantly.

Their auras shot into the sky like majestic dragons, causing an intimidating aura to permeate the entire area.

Finally, they were concentrated in one place.

With four Supremes joining forces, their powers were beyond anyone's imagination.

Their terrifying strength was enough to make the ground tremble underneath their feet.

Like a bright sun, their powers burst at the peak of Mount Chumen.

While the elders of the Chu Sect stared at them in shock, Gaius and the three others stomped simultaneously and bellowed, "Ice Fire Dragon, appear!"

Boom!

Lightning pierced through the clouds as thunder rumbled across the sky.

After the Dragon Gods yelled simultaneously, the weather immediately changed-the winds blew erratically, and dark clouds started billowing.

Unlimited power gathered together.

Soon, the apparition of a dragon that was thousands of meters long emerged from the vast sky, glowing brightly.

The colossal dragon obscured the entire sky, blocking the rays of sunlight from reaching the ground.

Its scales were as hard as steel.

Half of it was bright like fire and hot as lava, while the other half was blue like ice and cold as frost.

The opposing forces of fire and ice clashed together. Once the dragon appeared, it shot toward the fighters of the Chu Sect with a menacing aura, determined to wreak havoc upon them.

Tang Xian and the other elders were undoubtedly aghast. While instructing the others to retreat, the six of them joined forces to parry the dragon.

However, even with the joined forces, they were still overpowered by a single blow.

The powers of ice and fire radiated in all four directions, sending the fighters flying backward and coughing out blood.

"Go, Gaius!"
