A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) -
Chapter 1861
"T-That was..."
Zhang Zixi and the others were scared and stunned in place soon after.
That was too cruel.
Before they made the trip over, they would never have thought that Ye Fan, who looked ever so harmless, was actually the kind of man who would murder someone on a whim.
The sudden display of power and cruelty prompted everyone to back away a few steps.
"Ye Fan, what happened? Are you hurt?"
Ye Fan had covered Tangtang's eyes, so she only heard a muffled explosion. She never saw what Ye Fan did.
"Oh, everything is fine, Tangtang. Someone set off some firecrackers," replied Ye Fan softly.
His tone was calm and there wasn't even a hint of anything being wrong.
It was as though Ye Fan never killed anyone, and his victim was just an ant he accidentally stepped on.
Zhang Zixi clenched her fist tightly. "I guess that means you're adamant about causing trouble in Jiangbei."
Her gaze had turned hostile by then.
She had expected things to be difficult and didn't actually think that she could chase Ye Fan out of Jiangbei by simply threatening the guy.
However, she didn't expect him to be that cruel either. He just killed someone without batting an eyelid!
Blood had spilled, so there was no mistaking that a fight was inevitable that night.
Ye Fan smiled in response to Zhang Zixi's words. "I attacked earlier not because I intend to take over your place in Jiangbei. I simply dislike the idea of being threatened. That was just a simple lesson foryou. Remember this well. Before you attack your opponent, you need to think about whetheryou are strong enough to put up a fight. Failing to do so will just bring death and destruction to you and your comrades." Ye Fan turned around, shot a look at Zhang Zixi, then smiled.
After that, he turned his attention back to Tangtang.
"Let's go, Tangtang. We'll head home for dinner."
Ye Fan ignored them after that.
He was so calm that it was as though his opponents were mere ants and not worthy of his attention.
There's that arrogance again. This is how proud idiots, who think they are better than anyone else, behave.
Zhang Zixi really hated how he had neglected her.
This was so much worse than discriminating against someone. The way Ye Fan acted meant that he completely disregarded them.
That behavior was worse than discrimination and it was very insulting.
Naturally, Zhang Zixi, who had always been as proud as a peacock, couldn't accept that.
"Hold it right there. Don't you take another step forward or I will attack!" roared Zhang Zixi fiercely.
Unfortunately, Ye Fan just ignored her.
"You had this coming."
Zhang Zixi's eyes glowed with cruelty, and she issued her orders at the very next instant.
Brrt!
In the next moment, countless guns fired.
Thousands of bullets tore through the air, and shell casings fell as though it were raining bullets.
From a distance, it looked as though a crimson web of death from hell had fallen on them. The bullets were burning and had created a hot wave.
Piercing noise engulfed the entire neighborhood.
Just like that, under Zhang Zixi and her comrades' cold stare, a burning wave consumed both Ye Fan and Tangtang.
"Anyone who tried to snatch Jiangbei from us will meet an untimely death. My family has ruled this place for over a hundred years, and even Lu Songliang of the Lu Clan failed to destroy us. Do they really think a random punk from a rathole can take us
on?"
Zhang Zixi grinned evilly when she saw the flames in front of her.
That was not the first time someone had challenged herfamily's authority in Jiangbei, and she was certain that wouldn't be the last time someone did so.
It doesn't matter, though. I will just kill those who come after us. I won't even care who my opponents are.
The Zhang family was so powerful that even a Grandmaster couldn't go after or bully them.
"Head over later and take care of his corpse so we can send him back to Jiangdong. That'll send a message and tell everyone that we are a force to be reckoned with." The guns were still firing, and the custom-made bullets were tearing through the air as though they didn't cost a fortune.
However, Zhang Zixi had no intention of staying any longer.
His fate is sealed.
The Zhang family specifically created those powerful and highly piercing bullets to fight martial artists.
It wouldn't matter even if their opponent was a Grandmaster who could flush out his aura to protect himself.
He might be able to withstand a few dozen or even a hundred bullets, but there was no way he could survive ten thousand bullets.
That was why Zhang Zixi was confident that Ye Fan was a dead man as soon as she issued her order.
She had absolutely no doubt that things would turn out exactly the way she imagined, so she didn't think there was any point in staying. The color of the blood was very bright, but she didn't like it.
The sound of the guns firing died down when Zhang Zixi reached her car and was ready to leave.
Silence finally returned.
"I knew it. The world is a much more peaceful place once vermins are eliminated."
Zhang Zixi entered her car and picked up a glass of red wine that was prepared in advance. She drank everything in one go. "Okay, let's head home."
She had dealt with a threat on her grandfather's behalf and had rid Jiangbei of big trouble. Hence, she was in a good mood. With a smile on her lips, she ordered the chauffeur to drive.
But no one replied to her.
"Huh? What's wrong?" asked Zhang Zixi.
The chauffeur didn't reply.
"What?"
Zhang Zixi frowned right away and turned her attention to the man in the driver's seat.
All she saw was the elderly man trembling endlessly and staring ahead. His fingers shivered when he pointed ahead.
Horror was on every inch of his face, and it was as though he were looking at a demon.
Zhang Zixi was surprised to see the fear the chauffeur displayed.
She instinctively traced the chauffeur's line of sight and looked ahead.
Boom!
It was as though an explosion had gone off in her mind. The serenity on Zhang Zixi's beautiful face vanished instantly.
All she saw was the thin figure still standing in front of her.
Or rather, she saw it walking.
Ye Fan was holding Tangtang's hand, and the two of them walked side-by-side.
The streetlights illuminated both their figures, but they also made them two long shadows.
If anyone were to see that, they would find the scene to be heartwarming.
It was as warm as a ray of sunlight in the cold winter.
The part that had Zhang Zixi and the others drowning in fear, however, was different. Golden bullets were floating right behind them. Thousands of bullets floated in midair like magic.
If Zhang Zixi hadn't heard her own rapid breathing and felt her heart still pumping blood through her veins, she would've thought that time had stopped. "B-But h-how is that possible? H-How are the bullets floating in mid-air like that? Those bullets traveled faster than sound, so how did he stop them?" Zhang Zixi acted as though she had gone mad. Her beautiful face turned pale as she witnessed an unbelievable scene in front of her. She couldn't take it. That was something that would only happen in a fiction novel, but it had undoubtedly played out in front of her. Thousands of bullets were floating in the air, and the two people who should be dead were walking together under the streetlights. The incredible sight had, without question, stunned everybody at the place.
Just as they were drowning in fear, Ye Fan, who had been walking slowly, suddenly waved his arm.
Whoosh!
The bullets that had been floating in the air suddenly acted as though they were alive. Zhang Zixi and the others were still staring in astonishment when those bullets flew backwards.
It was as though a golden rain had fallen.
That beautiful picture, however, was tainted with agonized screams and crimson red blood.
Under the dark sky, the place turned into a river of blood.
Just like that, within a few seconds, Zhang Zixi and nearly a hundred of the Zhang family's assassins were all wounded. They all stumbled backward as the bullets tore through them. The intense pain prompted them to kneel on the floor and moan in agony.
"Relay a message to Zhang Jiuling. I have spared all these people, and in exchange, I want him to keep my wife safe. If anything were to happen to Mucheng, I will return to Jiangbei and make the family pay for it!"
