A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 2213 A Brewing Plot

At the summit of Mount Yunding, Sword of Yunyang was raised high into the sky.

Suspended mid-air, Ye Fan gestured with two fingers as he chanted a spell.

The incomprehensible words that left his mouth began to envelop the mountain.

The very next moment, the heavens began to tremble as Sword of Yunyang glowed gloriously.

Rows of ancient scripts shot out from it.

Just like a flowing river, the glowing motifs spiraled around the sword underneath Ye Fan's direction.

It was as if it had a life of its own.

At the foot of Mount Yunding, Li Er and the rest were observing the phenomenon.

Angie, standing quietly beside Li Er, waited for Ye Fan to complete the formation.

“Mr. Chu is growing more and more powerful! I'm amazed to see what he's doing with that ancient sword. No ordinary man is capable of such a feat!”

Li Er and the others were filled with admiration as they watched Ye Fan cast the formation in the sky.

The massive power he wielded elicited nothing but awe from them.

Just as they were stunned by the sight, they heard Ye Fan shout, “Away!”

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

All of a sudden, Sword of Yunyang emitted an earth-shattering roar as it smashed into the ground like a thunderbolt.

Thereafter, it pierced through the summit of Mount Yunding to bury itself deep within the mountain.

Subsequently, the ancient scripts spread out in eight different directions before amalgamating themselves with the ground in the shape of an octogram.

Once the phenomenon was completed, Ye Fan stomped on the ground. “Formation, activate!”

Boom!

It was as if the day of divine judgment had come.

The instant Ye Fan's words left his mouth, a golden hue suddenly covered the land.

With Sword of Yunyang in the center and bounded by the eight corners of the octogram where the scripts were buried, nine rays of light burst into the sky.

As the light swept out to its side, it finally enveloped Mount Yunding in a dome.

In that instant, a powerful wave of sword energy engulfed the mountain, filling it with a terrifying aura.

Meanwhile, Li Er and the rest were blown away after witnessing the sight before them.

The golden hue bathed the mountain like an ocean while the sword energy that pierced the skies raged tirelessly like waves within it.

“I-Is this the power of the divine?” Li Er mumbled as Jin Bao and Yin Bao gaped at the sight.

Only Angie stood calmly at her feet, breaking out a gentle smile that brimmed with admiration.

Although she couldn't see, she could imagine how glorious Ye Fan looked at that moment, just like the vibrant sun.

Finally, Yunzhou Formation was reconstructed with Sword of Yunyang. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

“The sword has covered a thousand-meter radius with sword energy. Neither the elements nor anything inhuman can breach its perimeter. Not only does it protect, but it can also kill one's enemies. Therefore, all of you should shelter within it in the event of danger. Remember my words, all of you!”

Ye Fan's voice reverberated across the entire mountain alongside the blazing sword energy.

With that, Li Er and the rest dropped to their knees and bowed to thank Ye Fan for the protection he offered them.

By the time they raised their heads, the latter had already left with Angie.

Both figures soon disappeared in the horizon.

“Mr. Chu, Jiangdong owes you a great debt for all you have done,” Li Er remarked gratefully upon Ye Fan's departure.

After leaving Jiangdong, Ye Fan brought Angie back to the Chu residence first.

Given that she had just awoken, he wanted to get an update on her condition from Old Madam Chu.

Also, he was preparing to go into solitary training so that he could break through god realm.

As his plan was to travel to Folo Mountain in India to do so, he had no choice but to leave Angie in Old Madam Chu's care.

During the journey back, Ye Fan related to Angie everything that happened while she was in her coma.

Nevertheless, he left out the part where her father died and only described how Chu Sect was destroyed.

Upon learning that Ye Fan had defeated Chu Yuan and eliminated Chu Sect, Angie was sincerely happy for him.

However, a sense of sorrow quickly descended upon her.

“What about Ms. Tang? Did she lose her life too?”

Tang Yun's face quickly emerged in Angie's mind.

Other than her parents, Tang Yun was the only person who treated her well in Chu Sect.

Whenever she got into trouble, Tang Yun would always bail her out.

Meanwhile, the mention of Tang Yun's name triggered a squeeze in Ye Fan's heart.

“No, she's still alive. I just don't know where she went after Chu Sect disbanded.”

Back then, Ye Fan had sent men to search for her.

Unfortunately, after the battle of Mount Yunding, Tang Yun seemed to have disappeared without a trace.

Ye Fan figured that she must have gone away with her elder sister.

In life, one was destined to meet a lot of people.

Nonetheless, some of them were nothing more than passing guests.

Despite being etched in each one's soul before, they would still end up being forgotten in the end.

“Chu Sect was everything to Ms. Tang, as she had given her life to it. She must be devastated to see you destroy the very thing she held dearest to her heart.”

Angie let out a long sigh.

When she was little, the innocent Angie would always wonder why adults were constantly bogged down by troubles.

For instance, her father was still unhappy despite being the powerful head of one of the Three Families of Chu Sect.

Now that she was all grown up, she finally understood how helpless one could be in life.

A good example was Ye Fan and Tang Yun.

Despite neither of them doing any wrong, one of them ended up losing everything.

“Ye Fan, you should go and look for Ms. Tang. I'm really worried that she would do something rash,” Angie suggested softly.

“If she insists on hiding, there's no way I can find her. Forget it. Just let her be. Besides, she'll probably be fine with her sister by her side.”

Talk of Tang Yun ignited complex emotions within Ye Fan.

Truth be told, he felt a strong urge to see her, but now, Angie's situation took priority.

In the midst of their chat, they arrived at the Chu residence without realizing it.

In the yard, they saw Old Madam Chu lying with her eyes closed on a recliner under the sun. She looked as if she had fallen asleep.

Angie's treatment had clearly taken the wind out of her.

Ye Fan didn't wake her up. Instead, he brought out a blanket from the house and covered her with it.

“You're back?” Old Madam Chu asked with her eyes closed as if she could sense their presence.

“I'm sorry to have woken you, Great-grandma,” Ye Fan apologized.

“Don't worry about it. I can always rest some other time. Instead, did you go out and cause trouble again, you brat? If I hadn't sent Angie to stop you, you would probably be dead by now,” Old Madam Chu reprimanded Ye Fan as she opened her eyes.

Ye Fan chuckled in response. “You seem to know everything, Great-grandma. However, they're powerless against me, as I have Sword of Yunyang in my hands.”

Old Madam Chu shook her head while her expression turned solemn abruptly.

“You have underestimated the situation. You're no match for them in your current condition.”

“Oh?” Ye Fan was slightly shaken. “Great-grandma, are you talking about the men listed on Empyrean Ranking? Do you know them?”

“I can't say for certain, but their aura feels similar to Chu Yuan's. On top of that, they gathered after Chu Yuan's fall to set Dragon Gate Project in motion. Deep down, I feel that they're hatching a plot of some kind.”

Old Madam Chu suddenly turned around to ask Ye Fan, “By the way, when you fought Chu Yuan previously, did he ever tell you why he started the war?”
