A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 2169

Carlo's tone was icy-cold and filled with rage.

All the other martial artists standing behind him protested as well.

“Don't push your luck, Chu Tianfan!”

“The Dragon God Hall didn't take down the Chu Sect all by itself!”

“You only managed to take over Mount Chumen because you got lucky! That doesn't mean you get to hog all the resources!”

“Yeah! Step aside!”

“Get out of the way!”

The enraged yells from the martial artists echoed throughout Mount Chumen.

They had all suffered huge losses at the hands of the Chu Sect.

Some of them lost family members in the war, whereas others lost friends and comrades.

Anger and sadness were all that they felt in their hearts. However, with the Chu Sect gone, they had no means of venting their pent-up anger and sadness.

As such, they decided to take it out on Dragon God Hall instead.

Han and the others went pale when they saw that the situation was going out of control.

They could clearly sense that the odds were stacked against them.

Dragon God Hall has sustained heavy casualties from the battle. Even Supreme Grandmasters like Gaius and Owen have yet to recover half of their usual strength, and Young Master's condition is most likely a lot worse. As Allen, Carlo, and the others had their forces either retreat or surrender during the Chu Sect invasion, their men were able to conserve their energy and are currently at full capacity. Dragon God Hall is bound to lose if we engage them in battle right now!

After taking a moment to weigh the pros and cons of the courses of action, Han walked up to Ye Fan and suggested, “Young Master, you can always gather more resources later on. I think we should just go with their arrangement and keep twenty percent of the resources. We could always demand more resources after Dragon God Hall has recovered from the battle.”

Gaius and the others nodded in agreement. “He's right, Dragon Master. Let's make a compromise for now. We can always take it all back when we get stronger!”

This is probably the only viable option at the moment. Refusing this arrangement could very well result in Dragon God Hall being wiped out!

The higher-ups of Dragon God Hall all tried to talk Ye Fan into accepting the arrangement.

Aaron, Carlo, and the other expert fighters were all glaring coldly at Ye Fan as they waited for his reply.

Although they were prepared to fight him if necessary, they had a feeling he wouldn't dare go against them.

After all, anyone could tell that Dragon God Hall was currently in no condition to fight another battle.

Even if Ye Fan was really powerful, he couldn't possibly have much strength left after battling Chu Yuan and Tang Yun.

They were all teaming up to capitalize on Dragon God Hall's inability to defend itself against them.

Dragon God Hall may have reigned supreme in the past, but it is at a severe disadvantage now! They have no choice but to accept whatever arrangement we make!

Right as they thought Ye Fan would submit to them, he burst out laughing and said, “Compromise? I never compromise! I never made any compromises when faced with Chu Yuan, Tang Yun, and the Chu Sect! You small fries are unworthy of demanding a compromise from me!”

Allen and the others exploded with anger when they heard that.

“You're pushing your luck, Chu Tianfan! Do you really want to declare war against the entire world?” Allen shouted coldly while glaring daggers at Ye Fan.

I don't care how great people claim Chu Tianfan is. He's nothing but a junior to me, and I will not allow a junior to disrespect me like this! He needs to be taught a lesson on humility!

However, Ye Fan didn't even flinch in the face of Allen's threats.

“Hahaha! If it's a fight you want, then it's a fight you shall get! You've heard my tales, so you should know that I have never feared anyone!”

“Very well, then! You brought this upon yourself, Chu Tianfan!” Allen screamed furiously.

How dare he behave so insolently when he's severely wounded? Does he think we're all afraid of him just because he destroyed the Chu Sect? He only got lucky! Dragon God Hall would never have won against Chu Sect without the help of the other martial arts worlds! I don't like the idea of bullying a junior, especially one who is wounded, but he brought this upon himself! Chu Tianfan has only himself to blame for what happens next!

With that in mind, Allen raised his sword and activated his aura.

“Frenzied Blade, Thunder Dragon Slash!” he yelled at the top of his lungs while unsheathing his sword.

A dragon made of lightning erupted from the sword and headed straight for Ye Fan at blinding speed.

“He's taking advantage of Ye Fan's unfavorable situation!”

“What a despicable person!”

Han and the others went pale with shock when they saw Allen's attack.

Fearing for Ye Fan's safety, Han had Gaius and Owen step in to defend him.

It had only been a few days since the battle on Mount Yunding.

Although Ye Fan fell unconscious due to severe injuries after the battle, he only rested for two days before heading straight for Mount Chumen.

Therefore, Ye Fan barely had time to recover from his injuries.

Given the circumstances, it was only natural for Han and the others to worry about him.

Despite being injured as well, Gaius, Owen, and the other Dragon Slayers all rushed forward to shield Ye Fan from the incoming attack.

“Hey, Gaius! I could defeat you even when you were in your prime! Right now, you're nothing but a wounded old man! I admire your courage to receive my attacks, but you're overestimating yourself way too much here!” Allen said with a sneer before he sent Gaius flying with a smack to the chest.

Owen, too, coughed up blood on the spot after being hit by Allen's attack.

Just like that, Allen had taken out two Dragon Slayers in one go.

Dragon God Hall was simply in no condition to fight anyone after the battle against Chu Sect.

“Watch out, Young Master!” Han yelled with tears of concern in his eyes as Allen's attack approached Ye Fan.

However, Ye Fan simply stood there with his arms behind his back and an icy-cold look in his eyes.

A strong gust of wind started blowing behind him as a huge amount of energy gathered at the peak of Mount Chumen.

The next thing they knew, Ye Fan, who was standing perfectly still, had his body overflowing with energy.

His black robe flapped loudly in the wind, and his black hair got all messy as well.

At that very moment, Ye Fan looked just like a demon that had walked right out of the underworld.

His eyes turned red, and his body exuded a terrifying aura that sent shivers down Allen's spine.

“What the...”

Whatever feelings of disdain he had earlier were gone as fear and shock filled his heart. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

How is he still so powerful? Has he been faking his injuries? Was there a mistake in the information we received?

Allen was starting to get worried.

Although he couldn't stand juniors showing off in front of seniors, he was no fool either.

Upon realizing that he was at a severe disadvantage, Allen quickly turned to Carlo and the others for help. “Carlo! Jared! What are you guys waiting for? Hurry up and lend me a hand! We need to work together and eliminate this threat as soon as possible! You've seen the damage Chu Sect could do! Do you want the same to happen with Dragon God Hall too?” he yelled anxiously.

After hesitating for a bit, Aaron, Carlo, and the others decided to participate in the fight.

“You brought this upon yourself, Chu Tianfan! We all worked together to destroy Chu Sect, so we can't let you hog all of their resources!”
