A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 2076

Who would have thought that the proud that in just thirty minutes, the commanding son of the Chu family would be beaten to a pulp in the blink of an eye?

Chu Qitian lay sprawled on the ground and raised his head with difficulty.

With a bloodied face, he stared hard at the slim figure standing proudly at the top.

“W-Why? Why I still can't beat you. W-Why?”

Blood trickled out of his eyes as Chu Qitian let out a growl of resentment and misery.

He could not figure out the reason behind it.

I've also mastered Dragon God Body and Invoke the Celestial Sky. Whatever Ye Fan learned, I learned too. All that Ye Fan lacked, I also own. Compared to him, I have more famous teachers to guide me and the entire family's resources at my disposal. I obviously have so many advantages but why am I still no match for him—the abandoned son of the Chu family?

Chu Tianqi had always belittled Ye Fan in the past. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Despite hunting the latter down for ten years, he merely left it to his subordinates and rarely asked about it.

After all, Ye Fan was just an abandoned son, so Chu Tianqi never thought that the former could be much of a threat.

The only reason why he wanted to kill Ye Fan was because he was afraid that his uncle, Chu Zhenghong, would take Ye Fan back to the Chu family and seize his position as heir to the family.

However, he did not expect that the person before him, whom he used to look down upon, had become a person that he could never beat.

He truly could not accept the outcome.

As the heir of the Chu family, Chu Tianqi had his own pride.

He had always believed that he was the most terrifying genius in the world and that no one of his age could compare with him.

However, Ye Fan's growth in power completely shattered that very pride.

Ye Fan faced Chu Tianqi's indignance with a condescending demeanor, his cold words resounding through the sky.

“I already said that you are no match for me. Even if you use the same techniques and moves as me, you still won't be able to defeat me. You are nothing but a flower in a greenhouse that will never grow into a big tree. The practice of martial arts is not something that can be conjugated by having a few powerful teachers and a strong background and resources. You assumed that with the support of your family and sect, you would be able to stand proudly at the pinnacle of the martial arts world, but you have no idea that your conception was wrong from the start. The skills of a true expert martial artist are honed in battle and killing, not by cowering at home and being taught by others.”

People only saw Ye Fan's present-day achievements, but who would know how he managed to obtain them?

After being kicked out of the Chu family that year, Ye Fan had fought nearly a thousand battles to that very day.

He had survived countless life-and-death situations to reach his current level.

Chu Tianqi, on the other hand, was nothing but an arrogant aristocrat worshipped by everyone since childhood. Even his current cultivation came mostly from Jade Eyes.

What could he take to compete with Ye Fan?

“Since we are of the same clan and origin, Chu Qitian, I'll give you a word of advice. Only fingers that have shed blood can strum the world's greatest music, and only after experiencing hellish trials can one create heavenly power.”

Ye Fan's deep voice reverberated throughout the area, those few words appeared deafening to everyone.

Even Mochizuki Kawa and the others had mixed emotions when they heard it.

Indeed, everyone loathes suffering, but how many would realize that suffering is the most precious treasure? In history, no great man standing at the top of the world did not shed blood and suffer. No towering trees can grow in a greenhouse. One could not wield a peerless divine sword without experiencing thousands of trials and tribulations.

Looking at the tall and muscular man in front of them, Mochizuki Kawa and the others could not help but wonder how many hardships Ye Fan went through to master his present skills.

Moon God was especially compassionate as it was written all over her exquisite face.

My master must have suffered a lot all these years.

“Hahaha!”

Contrary to them, Chu Tianqi merely threw his head back and laughed after hearing Ye Fan's words.

The way he laughed at that moment, coupled with his bloodied figure, was a terrifying and ghastly sight.

However, his mocking smile soon morphed into anger.

“Keep those preaching to yourself, Chu Tianfan. You are an abandoned son of the Chu family and have no right to lecture me. Also, don't think that you can gloat over defeating me. Let me tell you. It's too early for that. I may not be able to defeat you, but my pet can kill you all the same. As long as you die here, I, Chu Tianqi, will still be the most gifted genius in this world!”

After saying that, Chu Tianqi laughed maniacally.

He had accepted only his own defeat.

He still had the backing of the expert martial artists of Chu Sect and the Sacred Beast, Blaze.

If I can't kill Ye Fan, I'll let Blaze do it. In any case, Ye Fan must die!

Roar!

The moment his words fell, a burst of green light came from Chu Tianqi's pupils.

After that, Blaze, who had been eagerly waiting behind him, finally made its appearance once again.

Following a mighty roar, Blaze's body grew rapidly until its huge figure seemed to obstruct the sun.

Its four wings were propped up like clouds, covering half of the sky, while its majestic shadow loomed over half of Tokyo.

“Tear him to pieces, Blaze!”

Despite walking unsteadily, those words of resentment and hatred burst forth from Chu Qitian's weak body.

Ye Fan solemnly glanced up at the huge and terrifying creature.

It almost killed Eigetsu just now. Now, it's time for me to avenge her.

“Master! This monster is very peculiar. You must be careful! Its strength and defense are incredibly formidable. Even I will find it extremely hard to pierce its scales!”

Seeing that Chu Tianqi had finally used his trump card, Moon God couldn't help but begin to worry.

Having experienced the creature's ability firsthand, she even felt that Chu Yuan might not necessarily be able to hurt it in the slightest.

Now that Chu Tianqi was using it to take on Ye Fan, she was naturally very worried.

“Mm. Don't worry, Eigetsu. I've got this.”

Ye Fan furrowed his brows.

He naturally did not underestimate Blaze as he did when facing Chu Tianfan.

Although he had not made a move, he could still feel the tremendous power of the beast before him.

“Tear him to pieces, Blaze!” Chu Tianqi suddenly bellowed again.

Blaze, who had long completed its transformation, immediately let out a roar and charged toward Ye Fan.

It first swiped its claw like a long sword cutting through the void toward Ye Fan.

It moved so fast that it only left an afterimage in the sky.

“Master, be careful!” cried Moon God anxiously.

Ye Fan was also shocked.

This monster is incredibly fast!

Facing such a swift attack, Ye Fan had no choice but to use his arm to block it.

Swish!

Its sharp claws slashed across and instantly subdued Ye Fan's Dragon God Body.

As a result, the latter's clothes were torn, and numerous streaks of blood trickled down from under his sleeve.

At the same time, Blaze whipped its long tail.

With a loud thump like the noise of an iron whip, it sent Ye Fan flying and crashing on the ground ultimately.

The blood on Ye Fan's arm stained the ground where he landed.

“Master!”

Seeing that Ye Fan was injured, Moon God, a venerated person of a nation, could not stop her tears from rolling down her cheeks.

Ignoring her injuries, she ran toward the direction where Ye Fan had fallen.
