A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 1715

“Is that... Ye Fan?”

The slow but loud voice echoed throughout the house.

Sword Saint and Tang Hao couldn't help but shiver upon hearing it. Besides, Tang Hao's eyes went wide as he turned in the direction of the voice.

Much to Tang Hao's surprise, Ye Fan didn't give them a chance to speak and even asked them to leave no matter how sincere they were.

Unwilling to give up, Tang Hao shouted, “Ye Fan, although there are some misunderstandings between us, we should talk in person. We come from hundreds of miles away to apologize to you sincerely. We won't leave without meeting you.”

Although Tang Hao kept trying to persuade Ye Fan, no one responded to him anymore.

Moreover, Sword Saint and the rest weren't allowed to enter the Ye residence for the celebration.

Hence, they had no choice but to stand all day before the Ye residence's entrance.

As the sun began to set, its crimson light stained the skies.

The guests left the house one by one, yet Sword Saint and the others were still waiting outside.

Night had fallen after the guests had left, and the moon and stars were seen all over the sky. However, they still didn't see any glimpse of Ye Fan.

After a long time, Sword Saint finally heaved a sigh and said, “Forget it. Tang Hao, let's go back.”

“But we haven't met Ye Fan yet. Should we go back now?” Tang Hao was reluctant to accept it.

Sword Saint shook his head and smiled bitterly. “I don't think he will see us even if we continue waiting. As Ye Fan said, what's the use of giving him a present now, given that we refused to help him in his hour of need? What right do we have to seek his forgiveness? Let's leave.”

After waiting for a day, Sword Saint could finally understand Ye Fan's thoughts.

Since the War God Castle had deeply hurt Ye Fan, an apology wasn't enough to salvage their relationship with him.

As such, Sword Saint didn't have a chance to meet Ye Fan even after they had waited for almost a day.

In the end, they could only return empty-handed with disappointment.

“Master, Sword Saint and the rest have left. Do you really not want to see them? If we can improve our relationship with the War God Castle, we might eventually become allies. By then, we can lessen our burden when the Chu Sect takes revenge against us in the future.” Gaius tried to persuade Ye Fan in the room.

After taking a sip of his tea, Ye Fan said emotionlessly, “The Chu Sect will only target us individually even if it wants to take revenge. Besides, the Chu Sect won't go back on its word.”

“Master, I don't think we can be so sure about that. After all, Chu Yuan is the master of the head of the Chu Sect. What if he successfully persuades Tang Yun? We can hardly fight back if the Three Families of the Chu Sect go up against us together.” Although it was peaceful recently, Gaius and the rest couldn't take a load off their minds.

Given that they had inflicted severe damage to the Chu family, Gaius could hardly believe that the Chu family would let it go.

“No worries. I know Tang Yun and believe that she'll keep her word.”

As Ye Fan spoke, the image of the beautiful and graceful woman flashed through his mind.

Duringthe battle on Mount Chumen, Ye Fan thought Tang Yun would stand by Chu Yuan by all means.

What happened in the end, however, surprised Ye Fan.

Therefore, Ye Fan regarded Tang Yun as a heroine who held firm to her principles.

“All right, Master. Do as you wish. I only think that teaming up with more people won't harm us.” Gaius stopped dwelling on it since Ye Fan had no intention to improve his relationship with the War God Castle.

Nonetheless, Ye Fan sneered, “People like them are only concerned about their own benefits and do not give a damn about righteousness. In good times, they will bow and scrape to congratulate us. However, in bad times, they will turn their backs against us. Considering that our views are so different, why should we work together?”

Ye Fan shook his head as he spoke. After going through the ups and downs, he had seen through many things.

Sword Saint came to apologize to Ye Fan because he was ranked first in the Sky Ranking and survived the battle with the Chu family.

If Ye Fan lost the battle, it was foreseeable that the War God Castle would avoid him by any means necessary.

“Haha! Boy, I've been waiting for you to say that! I knowthatl didn't errin my judgment about you. I'm relieved to hearthat. In that case, I can put my mind at ease and go into solitary training. Now, let's drink!”

Ye Qingtian burst into hearty laughter.

“Hmm? Did you say you're going to go into solitary training?” Ye Fan asked.

“Yes.” Ye Qingtian heaved a sigh and continued worriedly, “Now that Chu Yuan has emerged again, the Chu Sect is becoming stronger. If the Chu Sect starts a war again, the martial arts world of China can hardly resist it.

“Of course, I feel that most of the load on my shoulder has been lifted because you're willing to help. However, I can't put all the burden on your

shoulder instead. For years, I've hit the bottleneck and can hardly achieve any breakthroughs. This time, I wish to put myself in solitary training to push myself further. If I can achieve breakthroughs, another fighter from China can make it into the top ten of the Sky Ranking.”

Ye Qingtian was triggered by the recent events in the martial arts world. In particular, Chu Yuan and the Moon God had surpassed the other Supremes.

Hence, the latest development made China's War God covet power badly.

“Well, good luck to you.”

Ye Fan smiled and proposed a toast to Ye Qingtian.

Throughout China, Ye Qingtian was probably the only figure in the martial arts world whom Ye Fan liked.

Therefore, even though Ye Fan had fallen out with the War God Castle, he was willing to maintain a personal relationship with Ye Qingtian.

“Is that all? Are you not going to give me some tips? Since you're ranked first in the Sky Ranking, I'm sure your understanding of martial arts is way beyond mine. Come on, tell me about it.”

Ye Qingtian licked his lips and gazed at Ye Fan like an elementary school student who desired to learn.

Suddenly, Ye Fan laughed and said, “As far as I can tell, you're here to trick me into giving you some tips about my experience.”
