A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 2173

“Are you all right, Dragon Master? You really gave us a shock earlier.” Han sighed in relief in his mind when he stepped into the room and saw Ye Fan had woken up.

“I'm fine. I just need some rest. However, everyone from Dragon God Hall should leave Mount Chumen soon,” Ye Fan informed.

What? That shocked Han.

Confused, he inquired anxiously, “Why, Dragon Master? It took you so much effort to conquer Mount Chumen. Why should we retreat?” Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Ye Fan commanded, “You'll know why in the future. For now, tell everyone to take everything they can and leave whatever they can't carry behind. All of you will only have one night to pack up everything. Tomorrow, before sunrise, everyone will leave with me to Folo Mountain in India.”

While Han didn't expect Ye Fan to make that decision, he could see the latter had made up his mind.

Thus, he had no choice but to obey.

“What about members of the Chu family, Dragon Master? Do we bring them along with us?” he continued to ask.

While the Chu family wasn't part of Dragon God Hall, Ye Fan was the head of the family.

Therefore, Han had no idea if they should bring the Chu family along.

“Let them choose. We'll bring those who're willing to follow us and ignore the rest. However, remember to tell them that if they stay, their lives will be in danger,” Ye Fan answered.

Upon nodding, Han left to execute Ye Fan's order.

After Han was out of the room, Junie, who was sitting at the side, asked, “What's going on? Why are we in a hurry to leave?”

Staring at the darkness outside the window, Ye Fan uttered, “They won't sit still and watch my Dragon God Hall grow powerful or allow me to become the next Chu Yuan.”

His words confounded her, but she could see the melancholy in his eyes.

“What's going on, Ye Fan? Isn't Chu Yuan dead already? Chu Sect is gone too. Technically speaking, the feud's over. Shouldn't things have quietened down now?” She was worried because it was likely Ye Fan wouldn't be able to protect himself from mighty warriors in his current condition.

However, from her perspective, with Chu Sect gone, no one would have a reason to attack him.

Upon hearing that, Ye Fan shook his head with a bitter smile.

“I wish that's true too, Junie. However, the world will keep spinning, whether we want it to or not. Conflicts won't cease simply because someone or a faction crumbles.” His voice was filled with sorrow.

Ye Fan was wholly disappointed with the world. Back then, the martial arts world from every country forced me to take my life. Now, they're trying to take advantage of the situation. I feel like the whole world has been opposing me throughout my journey from a pathetic teenager to becoming the Unrivalled. It's as though the martial arts world has no place for me. Frankly, I'm tired. I just want to leave, abandon everything I've built, and live out the rest of my life in seclusion. However, if I do that, what'll happen to my comrades? What about my Angie and Junie? Right now, the only idea I have is to retreat to some mountains in India with my followers and friends for the time being.

While he was recuperating, something was going on in Western Epea.

Not long after Aaron and the others returned to the country, they received news of Ye Fan's debilitating condition.

Aside from Dragon God Hall, the Chu family and the Tang family were also living on Mount Chumen.

Thus, it was impossible to conceal Ye Fan's condition.

When Aaron and the others learned of that news, they immediately realized they had been tricked.

That night, Carlo, as the president of the International Martial Arts Union, held an emergency meeting.

Nearly every member of the union sent a representative to attend the meeting.

As the pillars of China hadn't recovered from their injuries yet, Mo Wuya attended the meeting instead.

Back when Chu Sect was attacking China, Mo Wuya was well protected by his father. Hence, he only suffered minor wounds.

“Everyone, Chu Yuan is dead, and Chu Sect has been eliminated. This shall usher in a new era for the global martial arts world! However, Mount Chumen is currently under Dragon God Hall's control, and Chu Tianfan is more powerful than everyone here. I believe all of you should know what will happen to the global martial arts world if we ignore the situation.” Carlo's simple opening statement instantly turned the atmosphere in the meeting grim.

“Indeed. We can't allow Dragon God Hall to grow more powerful. Otherwise, it'll become the next Chu Sect, and Chu Tian Fan will become the next Chu Yuan! Years ago, Chu Tianfan slaughtered many experts from many countries. If we allow him to ascend to the peak of the global martial arts

world, I'm afraid our martial arts worlds will face an even worse situation compared to when we have to deal with Chu Sect.” Jared, Ferropene's martial arts leader, spoke with a scowl.

It was natural that he would have a grudge against Ye Fan after being humiliated at Mount Chumen.

Everyone nodded upon hearing that.

Mochizuki Kawa sighed. “I've said it before that Chu Tianfan's a scourge we must eliminate. None of you paid attention to him when he was still at the bottom. Now, he has grown so mighty that he has risen above all of us. Both Chu Yuan and Tang Yun lost to him. At the moment, it's impossible to gauge just how powerful he has become. Don't you think it's too late to talk about that?”

Among everyone in the meeting, he was the first to come in contact with Ye Fan.

Back then, Ye Fan was just a nobody in the global martial arts world. At most, he's only a little famous in Jiangdong, an insignificant spot on the world map.

However, in just a few short years, it was as though Ye Fan cheated and became the strongest man in the world. Eventually, he toppled Chu Sect, an organization that had reigned over the world for more than a thousand years.

In other words, it was too late for anyone to stop him.

“No, it's not too late yet,” Jared interjected. “According to my intel, Ye Fan's at the end of his tether right now. He doesn't have any strength left to fight. As for Dragon God Hall, they suffered major losses during their battle against Chu Sect. This is our best time to strike. As long as we join forces, we'll be able to storm Mount Chumen, eradicate Dragon God Hall, and kill Ye Fan!”

A menacing look flashed past his eyes.

“Jared's right. Not long ago, we received news that Ye Tianfan recently went into a coma. If we attack now, we'll catch them off guard and kill everyone there!” someone in the crowd added.

The crowd's eyes glinted when they heard that.

“Is that true? If that intel is accurate, this is definitely a godsent opportunity! Our martial arts worlds have suffered for far too long under the tyrannical thumb of Chu Sect. Now that they're finally gone, we mustn't allow another entity to take their place! I agree to this joint operation!” The leader of Korea's martial arts world raised his hand in agreement immediately.

Similarly, Australia's martial arts world nodded in agreement. “Australia will be willing to lend a hand too!”

“Nardor will do the same!”

Almost everyone there agreed to the idea, except for two people.

Mo Wuya from China's martial arts world, and King Folo from India's martial arts world.
