A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1793

Right after Tang Xian finished speaking, he felt an intense heatwave like a flaming tornado attacking him. When he looked up, he realized that members of the Chu Sect were being surrounded by gunfire. "What's going on? Oska, what the hell are you doing?"

When Tang Xian realized that the Chu Sect was the target of Oska's attack, he could feel his scalp go numb.

He went berserk at once, yelling and cursing while trying to activate his elemental force in order to defend the sect.

However, it was all too late.

Before Tang Xian managed to gather his energy to take the blow for his subordinates, innumerable artillery shells dropped from the sky.

Instantly, an inferno of flames shot into the sky, and a series of explosions sounded.

The ground along the entire street trembled violently as if an earthquake had just occurred.

The terrifying wave of attack caused cracks to appear on the ground, while blood, bones, and flesh evaporated into thin air due to the extremely high heat from the explosions.

"W-Whatisthis?"

"What's going on?"

"Are they blind? Or am I blind?"

Li Er and the rest were stunned as they looked upon the scene before them, wondering if they were hallucinating.

They had thought that they were the ones who were going to be attacked.

As such, they were unable to figure out what was going on.

They were unable to understand why Chu Sect's reinforcements, who were supposed to help them, would wipe out the fighters from the sect instead. They could not help but wonder if it was all a misunderstanding.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Explosions continued to ring out as the attack carried on.

After one round of attack, Oska gave instructions to begin the next round of attack.

Although the man was not versed in martial arts, he knew how terrifying the powers of martial artists could be.

Even with such an elaborate attack, Oska was not entirely confident that he would be able to confine all of them within the area.

Indeed, after rounds of bombing, he could still spot a few figures dashing out of the sea of fire.

One of them was Tang Xian, the head of elders of Chu Sect.

"That damned Oska! How dare he take advantage of our situation. Just wait and see how I'll deal with him! Not only him, but all the guards under him and Chu Tianfan also have to die as well! All of them shall die!"

Tang Xian looked utterly miserable with his expression darkened.

Rage filled his entire being as he yelled hysterically after escaping from the sea of fire, a murderous aura surrounding him.

"All remaining members of Chu Sect, listen up!”

Tang Xian's voice rang out clearly in the air. With a ferocious expression and bloodshot eyes, he commanded in a fierce tone, "Let's retreat!"

After saying that, the man turned around and retreated toward Mount Chumen.

A few others who managed to escape from the battle scene caught up with Tang Xian and the rest.

After all, Ye Fan had a huge army under his command, while their side had less than ten remaining survivors after the last attack.

It was simply not possible for the few of them to take on an army often thousand men.

Anyone with a sane mind would not attempt to do that.

As such, under such unfavorable circumstances, the natural choice for Tang Xian would be to return to Mount Chumen and regroup in order to mount an offensive against Ye Fan next time.

Meanwhile, the attack ceased with the departure of TangXian and his men.

The ground that members of the Chu Sect stood on just a while back had turned into an expanse of devastation.

Human remains were scattered all around.

None of the corpses had their bodies in one piece.

In just ten minutes, hundreds of fighters from Chu Sect had perished.

Li Er and the others gasped at the outcome.

Even the martial artists from Chu Sect suffered huge casualties from the attack. If they were the ones being attacked instead, Li Er was sure that they wouldn't stand a chance of survival. However, they did not know that the reason for Chu Sect's miserable defeat was that the fighters were completely unprepared for the sudden attack.

In other words, most of them probably did not even have the time to react before they died.

If faced against each other on a proper battlefield, ordinary soldiers would definitely not be a match for an army made up of martial artists.

After all, a martial artist's combat ability was far above that of an ordinary soldier's.

Besides, the more powerful a weapon was, the bulkier it would be.

As such, before an opponent could aim their weapon accurately at a martial artist, the latter would have already launched an attack on them. Besides, supreme grandmasters did not fear weapons.

If Tang Xian had been fully prepared for the battle earlier, he could have executed a few moves and destroyed those armored tanks.

As such, on a real battlefield, the only ones who would stand a chance to win against martial artists were martial artists themselves.

An ordinary army would have to employ raiders and launch sudden attacks on martial artists in order to cause serious losses to them. After defeating the Chu Sect's fighters, Oska, the leader of the army, turned and looked in Ye Fan's direction.

"Which of you is Chu Tianfan?" he asked in a deep voice.

Li Er, Xu Lei, and the rest instantly turned pale when they heard that.

At the same time, fear arose in their hearts.

They could not help but wonder if Oska and his army were switching their targets to them.

At that thought, those thousands of martial artists gathered and stood in a battle formation, ready to fight against the five thousand men-strong army in front of them. "That's me," Ye Fan answered placidly while remaining rooted to his spot, completely unfazed.

Oska looked over to the source of the voice and walked toward the man, accompanied by two of his subordinates. "Ye Fan, be careful!"

Xu Lei and the others started worrying when they saw Oska approaching the man.

Long Baichuan and the rest of the fighters immediately stepped in front of Ye Fan and fixed their icy gaze on Oska. However, Oska ignored their piercing gaze and continued taking giant steps toward Ye Fan expressionlessly. Seconds later, everyone stared in astonishment as Oska clasped his fists and knelt in front of Ye Fan.

"I am Oska, the Hidden Dragon. Greetings to you, Dragon Master! Please punish us for being late to your rescue!" Instantly, everyone was thunderstruck by the man's words.

Li Er, Chen Ao, Lei San, and Long Baichuan were all dumbfounded when they saw Oska falling to his knees.

Even Tang Yun, who was hiding in a corner and had not shown herself, covered her mouth in shock.

She could hardly believe that even Oska was under Ye

Fan's command.

The woman knew about Oska, who was sent by Anglandur to help guard Mount Chumen.

However, that was just what it appeared to be on the surface. In reality, the man was there to keep an eye on Chu Sect in order to prevent Chu Sect from becoming a threat to the leaders of the secular world. However, Tang Yun did not expect that the man was spying for Ye Fan as well.

As far as she could recall, Oska had already been there before she became the head of Chu Sect.

Could that mean that Oska has been under Ye Fan's command since a long time back?

At that moment, everyone's admiration and respect for Ye Fan grew.

The Unrivalled, who was also the Dragon God Hall Master, was mysterious and unfathomable indeed!

However, faced with Oska's submission, Ye Fan shook his head and said in a low voice, "Hidden Dragon, you shouldn't have shown up. You should know very well that once your identity is exposed, your authority will be revoked by Anglandur's military. If that happens, you would no longer be the commander of these five thousand soldiers."

Naturally, Ye Fan was well aware of Hidden Dragon's existence and identity.

However, according to Ye Fan's original plan, Hidden Dragon should have only revealed himself after they managed to defeat all the fighters of Chu Sect who were above the Supreme rank. The man's task was to give the final blow to Chu Sect and raze Mount Chumen to the ground, finishing them off.

"I know." Oska nodded and continued, "However, if you are killed, what's the point in me concealing myself any longer? Dragon Master, let's not discuss this now. Let me escort you away from here first!"
