A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 1826

If Chu Yuan were the emperor of the Chu family, then the Grand Old Lady would be considered the empress dowager.

An emperor who was not recognized by the empress dowager naturally lacked legitimacy.

In other words, this declaration of The Grand Old Lady directly vetoed the legitimacy of Chu Yuan to take charge of the Chu family.

If any overseas Chu family members continued to follow Chu Yuan, then these so-called Chu family members would lose the orthodox inheritance.

At least, the ancestral home of the Chu family would no longer recognize these people as descendants of the Chu family.

When Chu Yuan received that news, his usually calm countenance turned furious.

As immense rage fueled his entire being, he hit the long table in front of him with his palm.

The table was shattered instantly from the impact.

“That old woman is really vicious! This will destroy my foundation!”

Chu Yuan was furious beyond measure.

Grand Old Lady Chu was the oldest living member of the Chu family and also the most senior member of Chu Sect.

Many decades ago, before Chu Yuan became the leader of the Chu family, The Grand Old Lady was in charge.

Within the family, she was well-respected, and her word was the law.

Even though she was a woman, the Three Families of the Chu Sect respected her leadership.

The power and dominance of The Grand Old Lady were unparalleled.

Even the powerful, wealthy, and honored patriarch of the Tang family himself would greet The Grand Old Lady respectfully whenever they met.

It could be said that during that period, the prestige of Grand Old Lady Chu in Chu Sect was unmatched.

After some time, The Grand Old Lady decided to give up her position of power and isolated herself in the Chu family's old house, ignoring family affairs for many years.

As time passed, the Three Families of the Chu Sect forgot the old lady's powerful influence.

After learning that The Grand Old Lady would never leave the family house, Chu Yuan's respect for The Grand Old Lady was only superficial. There was no fear for her in his heart.

This time, Chu Yuan had openly disobeyed the elder by forcing her most beloved descendants to death.

Chu Yuan had felt that even if it angered The Grand Old Lady after she found out about it, there was nothing that she could do to him.

After all, as long as he did not go back to the family house to look for trouble, there was nothing she could do.

However, never in Chu Yuan's wildest imaginations did he think that she would go this far.

She had straightaway expelled him from the Chu family.

It was as if the empress dowager had personally issued the edict to dethrone the current emperor.

Eventhough it was just in name, the truth was that in life, everything depended on reputation.

Chu Yuan did not need to ponder over it anymore. After today, presumably the whole martial arts world would feel that he was notorious and no longer represented the orthodox Chu family.

“That d*mn old hag has really pissed me off. She will be the death of me!”

Chu Yuan was hopping mad.

After dealing with Chu Tianfan, unexpectedly, The Grand Old Lady dealt him a blow.

“Chu Yuan, what is our next step?”

“Everyone is talking about us now.”

“Even the Tang family and the Jones family are looking down on us.”

“There are even rumors that the Chu family on Mount Chumen are imposters and not really Yunyang's descendants.”

“The direct descendants of Chu Yunyang, who is the ancestor of the Chu family, are in China, Jiangdong, and Fenghai...”

“The legitimacy of our Chu family on Mount Chumen has been seriously questioned.”

Under the summon of War God Castle, the country set off a wave of searching for the missing person.

All over China, everyone was searching for the former moderator of the martial arts world forum who went by the username “Mortal Spark.”

Meanwhile, when the martial arts world was busy in China, a mighty and majestic figure appeared at the foot of Mount Yan.

Presumably, Sword Saint and the others had not imagined that barely after Japan's Tsukuyomi left, another uninvited guest would arrive at Mount Yan.

“Who do all of you think that this Mortal Spark is? More than ten years ago, he appeared suddenly out of nowhere. Now, his account is not active and invisible. It's so weird. What's his motive? What's the purpose?”

In the past few days, the King of Fighters and the others have been devastated by this incident.

Since it was related to the rise of martial arts in China, those at the top level were naturally concerned about it.

Sword Saint shook his head and stated, “This is an old senior. Hence, there should be no ulterior motives. After all, this old senior had been contributing selflessly to the forum through the years without gaining anything. Be it cultivation techniques or secret techniques; all were disclosed free of charge. Furthermore, he will explain any problems encountered by the youth in their cultivation without reservation. This is a senior who loves the country and the people. I feel that this senior may have passed away, and his family members had deleted his account on his behalf.”

“Are you saying that the old senior may have f-f-fallen? Uh...” King of Fighters and Tang Hao were shocked when they heard the man's words.

If it were as the Sword Saint had stated, it would mean that those unfinished exercises and secret techniques were really the senior's last words!

If that were the case, then the hope that the martial arts world in China had just seen arose had already died.

While their eyes were filled with sorrow and their spirits were low, footsteps were heard coming from outside the War God Castle all of a sudden.

“Hm? Who's there?”

The next moment, Sword Saint and the others were shocked, and their expressions immediately changed.

By right, if a warrior entered the Mount Van range, they should detect the warrior's aura instantly.

However, this time, they only knew that someone had arrived when they heard footsteps. They did not sense his arrival at War God Castle prior to that.

While the three of them were still in shock, the imposing and thick gate of the War God Castle was slowly pushed open.

The sun shone in, and a figure appeared before them.
