A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1779

Chu Yuan was sounding a lot gentler. Evidently, he could tell that the Chu family was in the wrong in this case.

Back when Ye Fan was still in Chu Sect, he told Chu Yuan that the Chu family had taken Angie's eyes from her. Back then, Chu Yuan thought it was too horrifying to be true. He thought Ye Fan was trying to slander them in order to justify his attack on the Chu family.

However, when he saw the beast that had woken up from its slumber and the man who stood atop it, he knew Ye Fan was not lying.

All the top brass in the Three Families of the Chu Sect knew that the Jones family was the gatekeeper of the slumbering beast. Generations ago, Yunyang gave them the Jade Eyes that could help the Jones family in their duty of controlling the beast.

Those eyes were passed down in the Jones bloodline, but Chu Yuan noticed that Chu Qitian had obtained those eyes when he appeared the night before. It was then he confirmed that Ye Fan wasn't lying. Chu Zheng Hang is one crazy man. He robbed the girl of those eyes and gave them to Qitian?

Chu Yuan still thought it was a shocking move on his son's behalf even after so long. But now that they were in control of the Jade Eyes, Chu Yuan had no intention of giving them back. After all, having the Jade Eyes in their hands meant total control over the beast underthe mountain. That would make the Chu family more powerful, and Chu Yuan would never do anything that would harm the family's bottom line Besides, his son had paid the price in the form of a painful punishment, and if Chu Yuan saw things in that light, he could justify his son's actions.

However, Chu Yuan still had to look out for the Jones family. They could still stage a retaliation, so Chu Yuan had to do everything to calm them down, and deception was not beyond him. Nonetheless, if the Jones family would not give in, Chu Yuan wouldn't spare them either. Now that the Chu family was in possession of the Jade Eyes, the Jones family had lost their value.

Chu Yuan could wipe them all out anytime he wished to. Power was everything in the martial arts world. Fairness was a pipedream for the Jones family, for they were weak, and had no power at all. "I will do my best, Old Master."

The Tang family didn't want to take sides in this feud. At best, they could only take up the role of mediator and try to keep the balance as it was, even if it had become somewhat tenuous. After the talk was over, Chu Sect started working at full capacity. They sent everyone to search for Ye Fan, save for those who were seriously injured and had to rest.

Aside from that, Chu Yuan used the Chu Summoning Seal to summon all the Chu Sect members who were training outside to return immediately. Because of those orders, the city the Chu Sect was in became a tightly secured area.

All the sea, land, and air exits were tightly guarded. Naturally, that wasn't all because of Chu Sect. They had help from Anglandur's government.

Ye Fan was China's fighter, and an incredibly talented one at that as well. Killing someone like that did align with Anglandur's agenda, so they were all too happy to help.

While Chu Sect was in a maniacal search for Ye Fan, a man and a woman were walking on a street in Norwal City. They were dressed in a robe as they slowly made their way into a cafe.

The woman was wearing a veil, and her hair was long. Even though she was covered in a long robe, her perfect figure was still visible. Some women were born exceptionally beautiful, and one look at her was enough to captivate anyone.

"Man, now I feel like taking you with me is a mistake." The man noticed the customers' looks, and he smiled dryly.

Gorgeous women were rare no matter the place, not to mention that the woman beside him was gorgeous, majestic, and elegant. And she was the head of Chu Sect as well.

The man and woman were none other than Ye Fan and Tang Yun. After they left the mountain, they were planning on escaping due east, where China was. However, Tang Yun gave up on the idea in the end. She knew what her master was like, and she knew all the Chu Sect fighters must be guarding the city's exits by then. The moment she and Ye Fan made their appearance, her master would get the news immediately.

Besides, Ye Fan was too heavily injured to travel that far. Tang Yun might be in a slightly better position than Ye Fan was, but she was still severely exhausted.

The best choice for them in this situation was not to escape. Instead, they must find a place to hide and regain their strength. At the very least, they must have the power to protect themselves before they could come up with a plan of escape.

"Oh, regretting your decision so soon? Fine, I'll leave then. I'll go back and become sect leader again. You think I want to be on the run with you?" Tang Yun snorted and got up.

Naturally, Ye Fan had no intention of letting her go. He pulled her into his embrace. "Too late to leave now. I'm not letting you go after I took you with me."

He laughed shamelessly, while Tang Yun turned red with embarrassment. "Hey, people are staring. What do you think you're doing?"

She glared at Ye Fan and got up, though the pink shade on her face remained.

After that little laugh, they started talking business.

"So, what should we do next? Where should we go? My master has sent an army after us. We can't get out of town that easily for now. Why don't we hide in a cave and heal up?" Tang Yun suggested. Ye Fan shook his head. "Whatever you can come up with, your master would have thought about it. I guarantee that most of his attention is on the forests now. Nobody lives there, which makes it the first place to search for people in hiding. We'll have to hide in the city. Did you bring any money with you? I'll see if we can get a room somewhere." Ye Fan looked at her.

He came from China. So even if he had money, he wouldn't be able to use it in Anglandur. Besides, Ye Fan seldom had money on him.

Tang Yun shook her head. "No, I didn't."

She was crowned as Supreme, and everyone saw her as a distinguished guest. As such, she rarely had a place to spend her money on. Even if she did, her subordinates would settle it for her.

It had been years since Tang Yun had any money on her. Aside from hertraining, she was like a child in every other aspect of her life.

Ye Fan held his forehead in frustration. "D*mn. Don't you think that you're too detached from reality? Motherhood is going to be hard on you if that's how you deal with your own life."

He had a feeling that if he were to marry Tang Yun, he would have to be her husband and father at the same time.

"Well, I thought it's going to be the same as how I'm living right now." Tang Yun looked a little guilty, and she whispered, "And my parents can take care of the kid."

Suddenly, a woman's voice interrupted their little chat. The woman could be heard grumbling, "I said I don't like you. Can you stop stalking me?" The voice came from outside.

A moment later, the woman came into the coffee shop.

"But Yurou, you don't have to love me. We can start by being friends first! We can nurture our love! You'll fall for my charms eventually! I just know it!"

A rich guy in expensive clothes came in right after her.
