A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 1734

“Take care, Ms. Xu. I'll get going first.”

The Sun Dragon, Xue Renyang, turned and walked out of the room into the dark night.

“Wait,” Xu Lei called out.

“Is there anything else you need, Ms. Xu?” Xue Renyang turned sideway.

“I'm going too!” she cried out in conviction.

She was not the only one who made such a decision at that moment.

Over at Jiangbei, Chen Ao was standing at the gate with a mass of local fighters.

Although Ye Fan drove him out of Jiangdong last time, Ye Fan did not corner him to a dead end because of Chen Nan. Instead, Ye Fan showed him mercy and allowed him to go to Jiangbei. That was how he eventually inherited the Lu Clan's business and established his own influence in the region.

He was indebted to Ye Fan. Now that Ye Fan was in danger, Chen Ao readily stood up to go to his aid.

“Nan,” he said, looking at his daughter, “take good care of your mother. I'll be right back.”

Chen Ao bid his daughter and wife farewell before he set off.

Chen Nan had tears in her eyes as she sent her father off. “Dad, Ye Fan will be okay, right?”

“He will be. Don't worry.” Chen Ao had mobilized all his men for this operation.

“Mr. Chu has helped us a lot the last time. Our family will do everything we can to protect him. I will see to it that this is the case.”

Chen Ao hugged his daughter one last time and got ready to start the journey.

“Chen Ao!”

A voice halted the man's steps.

Chen Ao turned around and saw a bald old man in an immaculate suit coming down from a car.

“Li Er? What brings you here?”

Chen Ao was totally not expecting him.

It was true that they were old friends, but still, Chen Ao was surprised to see him.

“I'm coming along. I'm going to see Mr. Chu,” Li Er said slowly, but surely.

Chen Ao fell into silence. They exchanged looks and let out a hearty laugh.

“Let's go!” Chen Ao cried out energetically.

With that said, the two old men who had once fought with Ye Fan on the battleground began their journey eastward.

On the same day, skilled fighters from all directions gathered at the mountain.

Their movements could even be seen and felt from afar. They glided through the air in speedy projectiles toward the Chu Sect's turf.

It was a magnificent spectacle to have so many of them congregating at the same place.

Meanwhile, over in War God Castle on Mount Yan, Mo Gucheng, the King of Fighters, was shocked when he found out about what had happened at Dragon God Hall.

“He must be crazy!” he blurted out, shaking his head. “Chu Tianfan must be crazy. How did he not even tell me about waging war against the Chu Sect? What is he even thinking? Who does he take me for?”

“I see where you're coming from. As you said, we should just watch how things turn out. Since he went to Mount Chumen alone, I bet he was prepared to lose his life. There's no point trying to save someone who has made up his mind to die.”

After much deliberation, everyone from the War God Castle decided to refrain from getting involved.

Truth was, they did not have what it took to help. After all, declaring war on the Chu Sect was a formidable feat.

Only someone like Ye Fan would have the audacity and capability to do that.

While warriors and fighters were making their way to Mount Chumen from across the world, the mountain was already covered with corpses.

Ye Fan killed his way up the mountain expeditiously. Every second went by with dozens of men falling around him to their death.

He waded through the multitude of people with a sword in his merciless hand, drenching every inch of soil with the blood of his enemies.

It was just a matter of time before Ye Fan arrived at the gate of the Chu residence.

A triannual sect assembly was taking place in the castle on the peak of the mountain when Ye Fan reached.

The meeting was supposed to be held earlier, but because Tang Yun was nowhere to be found, the assembly was postponed.

This was already the third day since the meeting was inaugurated. Over in the grand hall, the head of the elders was about to make his speech on behalf of the other members.

“Ms. Tang, we can't hold the plan to rejuvenate our sect off any longer. Now that Patriarch Chu is back, and that you've made marked progress as well, this will be the best time for us to proceed with our plan. We, as the elders of the sect, along with the heads of the three families, propose that we push through with our plan. We want to bring the sect to greater heights. It's our wish that the Chu Sect be known and revered around the world. We will dominate the whole martial art world and make everyone bow before us. It's time we carry on the legacy our forefathers left for us.”

While the man spoke, Chu Zhengliang just sat on his chair as he listened. Although he was the head of the family, he still waited for the head of the sect to have the final say.

Tang Yun was deep in thought considering their proposal. As the principal figure of the day, she was dressed in a purple gown and a gold crown embellished with sprinkles of purple and the image of a phoenix. Her face did not betray the slightest emotion. An aura of nobility and elegance radiated from her presence as she sat on the throne in utter silence.
