A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 2158

While many were happy, some were worried.

As Ye Fan and his pals were celebrating their victory, the Chu Sect members were weeping over their defeat.

Once, they were immensely proud of being a member of Chu Sect. At that moment, only despair and disappointment were visible on their faces.

From a distance, all of them seemed to be in anguish.

Chu Yuan's death was the equivalent of the sky falling for the members of Chu Sect.

However, to Ye Fan, killing Chu Yuan was only half of his revenge quest.

“Help me up, Lei.” Ye Fan's expression suddenly turned serious after he had rested for a while.

Once he was up, he turned around and approached Tang Yun.

Her life wasn't in danger, despite her blood-drenched clothes.

She was spacing out with a pale countenance, her gaze aimed at her master's corpse.

“It's time to fulfill your promise, Ms. Tang. I've defeated you, and now you must disband Chu Sect.” Ye Fan's deep voice rang in her ears.

The moment the Chu Sect members heard that, they panicked.

“No!”

“That's impossible!”

“We've sworn to never leave Chu Sect!”

“Don't you dare disband us, Chu Tianfan!”

“We will defend Chu Sect's honor to our last breath!”

Anderson and Chu Sect's other elders exclaimed adamantly with reddened eyes.

“That's right!”

“We'd rather die in battle than to leave Chu Sect!”

“We lived as a member of Chu Sect and will still be one even after death!”

Soon, the Chu Sect martial artists who were still alive responded similarly. Close to a thousand of them clamored with gritted teeth, swearing they would live and die with Chu Sect.

“Very well! All of you will get your wish!” Gaius roared furiously. “Many of my comrades died by Chu Sect's hand! I can't wait to slaughter the lot of you! If you all want to die this badly, Dragon God Hall will gladly fulfill your wish!”

Owen and the others were prepared to slaughter their enemies, too.

The other members of Dragon God Hall were also pretty pissed off.

To them, they didn't want Chu Sect to be disbanded.

After battling against Chu Sect for so many years, they were unwilling to lay their accumulated hatred to rest unless their enemies were all dead. This was especially true for the Dragon Slayers, who had been imprisoned by Chu Sect for nearly three years and tortured endlessly.

If they hadn't clung to the hope that their Dragon Master would come to rescue them, Gaius and the other Dragon Slayers likely would've ended their lives in their prison.

Even though Chu Yuan was dead, his accomplices and the Chu Sect scum were still around.

Gaius and the others were stifling their anger. If not for Ye Fan's bet with Tang Yun, they would've started cutting down their enemies.

After all, at that moment, Chu Yuan was dead, Tang Yun was defeated, the Demonic Duo had betrayed the sect, and Chu Qitian had become a prisoner.

In other words, the only fighters left in Chu Sect were of no threat to them.

Dragon God Hall alone could wipe the rest of Chu Sect out without the help of Ye Fan.

That was why Gaius and the others were very happy the loyal dogs of Chu Sect were unwilling to disband.

After they gathered a group of subordinates behind them, they were ready to charge forward and massacre the Chu Sect members.

Their cries shook the land.

To Anderson and the others, Chu Sect was the place where they had lived and worked for their whole life.

In just a single night, they had lost their home.

Their grief couldn't possibly be described with words.

“I'd say we let them off the hook too easily.” Gaius and the others snorted coldly, still displeased.

However, with how things had turned out, they had no choice but to let the former Chu Sect members go home.

As for Ye Qingtian, King Folo, and the other fighters from their generation, their feelings were pretty complicated when they saw that.

Ye Qingtian uttered, “The Three Families of the Chu Sect was magnificent back then. At the height of the sect's power, the top ten individuals on Sky Ranking were all from Chu Sect! They ruled the martial arts world for nearly a thousand years. Who would've thought their empire would topple in one day? I bet the previous heads of Chu Sect never thought the most powerful sect in the world would be taken down by a twenty-something-year-old man!”

Everything was destined to end one day.

Even the most powerful sects would fall eventually.

As the wheel of history rolled by, the waves of time ultimately washed away Chu Sect, a sect that had lasted for a thousand years.

Regardless of the struggles of heroes, the victories they achieved, or the defeats they suffered, the world moved on all the same.

The mountains would still stand, and the sun would still rise from the east.

Despite that, their stories would continue to live on as people passed down their legends from one to another.

Finally, the long night had come to an end as sunlight peeked out from the eastern horizon.

Ye Qingtian gazed at the skyline. Despite how things had ended, he sighed.

Just as everyone thought the war had come to an end, Tang Yun, who was long dead inside, tried to kill herself with a sword when no one was paying attention to her.
