A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1803

"General Long!"

Li Er and his companions were shocked and enraged when they saw that Fen Tian had seriously injured Long Baichuan, and they began yelling indignantly at Fen Tian, "You b*stard!" "What's so heroic about bullying the weak?"

"How dare you do such a thing in front of all these martial arts leaders? Aren't you afraid of bringing shame to your country?"

"If you're truly that skilled, why don't you wait until Mr. Chu recovers and fight him properly?"

Fen Tian frowned, and he looked a little angry.

Perhaps it was because their comments hit too close to home.

"Where did you clowns come from? You're not martial artists, yet you dare to criticize me? I think you've all got a death wish!"

His eyes hardened. Turning to face Li Er, he raised his arm and swung his blade down through the air.

Being King of India, Fen Tian ranked as a supreme grandmaster in the Sky Ranking.

Even during the battle in the rainforest, Ye Fan was seriously injured by him.

Despite having one of his arms cut off by Tang Yun, Fen Tian's capabilities as a supreme grandmaster were still far beyond what Li Er and the others could take on.

Just as everyone on the ship despaired, they felt a blast of Qi slice through the air and collide head-on with Fen Tian's attack.

Time seemed to stand still for a split second before Fen Tian's blow was deflected.

Fen Tian let out a low grunt as he was sent staggering backward.

After steadying himself, his face flushed scarlet as he turned and growled, "What's the meaning of this, Sword Saint? Don't tell me War God Castle has decided to risk offending the entire world to defend this wicked brute!"

Indeed, Xiao Chen-a Hall Master of War God Castle and also known as Sword Saint-was the person

behind the counter-attack.

Embarrassed that Sword Saint had managed to repel his attack and send him staggering backward, Fen Tian clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles cracked.

After hearing Fen Tian's question, everyone subconsciously turned toward those from China.

Those from Chu Sect, in particular, gazed at Sword Saint coldly as they waited to see how he would respond.

"Sword Saint, please think twice before you act. Now isn't the time to act rashly," Mo Gucheng cautioned behind him in a low voice.

Seemingly unfazed by Fen Tian's questioning, Sword Saint replied frostily, “I didn't see you attack Chu Tianfan. I only saw that you were bullying the weak. How could I possibly allow a foreigner to act so lawlessly and slaughter a fellow compatriot when we're at the borders of China? Don't make the mistake of thinking you can act as you wish because War God isn't around. It'd do you good to remember that my sword is not for decoration. We don't shield criminals, nor will we tolerate your mistreatment of an innocent compatriot."

He spoke firmly and resolutely. The commanding tone behind those harsh words was evident, and his voice boomed like rolling thunder.

Even the calm sea began to stir at his words, causing it to become rough with choppy waves.

As for Fen Tian, the color drained from his face, and his initial arrogance dissipated at once.

The expressions of the other skilled martial artists also darkened, and they quickly warned their subordinates not to do anything impulsive.

Mochizuki Kawa had intended to kill some of Ye Fan's subordinates in the chaos, but he quickly thought better of it.

All of them could sense that Sword Saint truly meant what he said.

There were many others from China on the ship as well, and they were not about to let anyone kill any of their countrymen.

"Well said!" one of them piped up.

"I wouldn't expect anything less from the Hall Master of War God Castle. Your commanding presence alone is enough to win my admiration!" another person called out. Just as their shouts died down, one of the men in the crowd stepped forth.

At the same time, everyone felt a spine-chilling aura erupt around them. It was even more terrifying than anything they had felt earlier, and it swept over them like a tsunami.

The imposing aura pressed down on them like an indomitable mountain, forcing them to take a step back.

"Is this the power of the god realm?" one of them exclaimed.

"H-How terrifying!"

Everyone was dumbstruck.

In fact, Fen Tian and his men were utterly panic-stricken, their eyes filled with fear and shock.

To most of them, the strong fighters of the god realm had always only been the stuff of legend or mentioned in books, and practically none of them had ever experienced the true power of a god-realm fighter.

But now, they had finally gotten a taste of how the mere aura of one from the god realm was enough to strike fear in the hearts of the supreme grandmasters and make them retreat. And that was merely the tip of the iceberg.

Hence, the crowd could not imagine how much more terrifying it would be if a fighter from the god realm unleashed his full powers.

In the blink of an eye, a deep silence descended upon the ship.

Not one of the fighters dared to make the slightest noise, and even Sword Saint's imposing aura dwindled.

Chu Yuan's show of power and dominance instantly caught the attention of everyone present.

Nonetheless, he looked toward those from War God Castle with a smile.

"Don't worry, Sword Saint. We don't mean any harm or disrespect to China's martial arts by gathering here today. Our sole purpose here is to ensure punishment is meted out to the wicked brutes within the martial arts community so that we can restore peace and justice."

Chu Yuan stood with his hands behind his back and a faint smile on his lips.

Sword Saint and the others remained silent, but Tang Hao could not refrain from retorting, "Do you mean to say that those who go against your sect are wicked and nothing but scum?"

Alarmed by Tang Hao's reply, King of Fighters paled and grabbed the former's arm. He hissed in a warning tone, "Watch your mouth, Tang Hao!"

If he says something like that now, it sounds like he's calling Chu Yuan out for being a liar!

But instead of getting mad, Chu Yuan merely burst out laughing.

"Of course not! I only mean those who go around killing fellow martial artists wantonly. For example, Chu Tianfan! I wonder if the Hall Master of War God Castle remembers that battle in the rainforest. Many countries suffered heavy losses because someone went on a rampage and killed hundreds of martial arts elites. After our investigations, we found that the culprit behind those senseless murders was Chu Tianfan! Such a heinous act has incurred the wrath of both men and god. My question to you is, shouldn't someone who has committed such a crime deserve to die? Shouldn't someone like that be considered the scum of the martial arts community?"

"That's..." Tang Hao paled at Chu Yuan's question, unsure how to respond.

Suddenly, Fen Tian stepped forward. His eyes flashed with rage as he turned to Chu Yuan and said vehemently, "Why do you need to ask them?

Everyone knows that the massacre in the rainforest almost wiped out all of the martial arts elites from thirty-six countries, except for China. Their men retreated and did not suffer a single death. Do you think they'd empathize with us in a situation that benefits them? Moreover, Chu Tianfan is one of them. So, they're bound to cover up for him."

Back then, the massacre at the rainforest battle had caused an uproar within the martial arts world.

Many people blamed it on Fen Tian, which left his reputation in tatters. He was even nearly killed by those who sought revenge.

When Fen Tian got wind of the news that Ye Fan had not died, he told everyone that the latter was actually the culprit. However, not many people took notice of it.

But now, Chu Sect was involved in the matter.

With them takingthe lead in pointing the finger at Ye Fan, it would only reinforce the charges against Ye Fan.

Li Er, Chen Ao, and the rest protested at once. "Nonsense! "You're just spouting baseless allegations!"

"I think you're deliberately accusing Mr. Chu because you want him dead!"

"If what you say is true, then present your evidence. Otherwise, who will believe your groundless claims?"

Sword Saint also seized the opportunity to add, "They're right. It's a very grave matter. Without any solid evidence, I'm afraid you won't be able to convince many people with only your words." Chu Yuan shook his head with a smile after hearing their remarks.

"What if I told you all the other countries believe that

Chu Tianfan is the culprit? Do you think the evidence still matters in such a situation?" Chu Yuan responded, gazing condescendingly at Sword Saint and the others.

The faint smile playing on his lips carried a hint of arrogance and mockery.
