A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 2079

Under the weight of Ye Fan's tremendous power, Blaze's massive body was instantly sent flying thousands of meters away, as if it was a ball.

At the point where Ye Fan's fist landed on Blaze's body, one could clearly see it collapsing upon itself.

The trajectory from which Blaze was thrown back left a path of destruction behind, filled with crumbling buildings and flattened hills. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

The excruciating pain it felt triggered a roar of agony and tormented it to the brink of tears.

Green blood gushed incessantly out of its mouth till a pool of it gradually formed on the ground.

Obviously, this was just the after-effects of the second punch.

Soon, with the subsequent barrage of punches raining down upon Blaze, it let out a roar of even greater pain.

Its defenses, impregnable over the last few centuries had finally been broken through.

The black and hardened scales that protected it all these years were shattered by Ye Fan's punches, revealing the soft and tender flesh beneath them.

Falling from the air, it finally crashed into its own pool of blood.

Amidst its agonized screams, its body writhed on the ground, just like a crying child.

Watching what was unfolding before them, the crowd couldn't help but be stricken by terror.

He's so strong!

Chu Tianfan is just overwhelmingly powerful!

This doesn't make sense at all!

No one had expected Ye Fan to successfully smash Blaze's scales with his bare hands when Moon God had failed to land a scratch with her sword.

“I-Is he even human?”

“His body... is it really made of flesh?”

From a distance, the grievously injured Mochizuki Kawa stared at the god-like presence of Ye Fan, which sent a chill down his spine.

He couldn't believe that he and the latter were enemies back in the day.

In fact, he had even crossed swords with Ye Fan more than once.

Just thinking about it now caused his knees to quake in fear, for he realized that it was a miracle he was still alive.

Even Suzumiya Eigetsu was dumbfounded by the sight.

She had assumed Ye Fan was just reassuring her earlier but could now see she was wrong and had underestimated him.

Unfortunately, not everyone celebrated the sudden turn of events.

The beaten Chu Qitian turned red in rage when he saw how Blaze had been thrashed.

No sooner had he powered through the pain to get back on his feet than he dashed toward Blaze's side while unleashing a heartbroken tirade at Ye Fan.

“You b*stard! How cruel can you be? Why do you have to use such brutal strikes? D*mn you!”

Holding Blaze's head, he consoled it repeatedly.

As for Blaze, it lay in his arms as if it was a child longing for its parent's comfort.

Meanwhile, Ye Fan, with a solemn expression, looked down at them.

“Chu Qitian, you have reached the end of the line. This is where our enmity ends.”

Whoosh!

Ye Fan had barely spoken when a powerful gale blew out of nowhere.

Behind him, the trees and rocks began to shake violently, a phenomenon resulting from the unleashing of his power.

At the same time, Moon God's broken sword—guided by Ye Fan's aura—gradually rose into the air from the ground and floated right up to him.

From the looks of it, Ye Fan was going to end Chu Qitian and Blaze's lives with it.

“B*stard, how dare you attack Mr. Chu!”

“Old Master is not going to let you get away with this!”

The elders of Chu Sect had turned pale in shock.

Faced with Ye Fan's murderous intent, all of them charged hysterically at him.

Even though their display of loyalty was heart-moving, it was still nothing but a pointless struggle.

A single kick from Ye Fan unleashed a force that sent the men flying with blood spewing out of their mouths.

The gulf between their powers was simply too great.

Having lost Blaze's protection, the men from Chu Sect were no different from lambs awaiting slaughter.

After getting the elders out of his way, Ye Fan stretched out his hand and pointed abruptly with his finger.

Zing!

Just like a laser, the broken sword behind him let out a piercing shriek before flying straight at Chu Qitian and Blaze.

“Chu Tianfan, how dare you!” the members of Chu Sect screamed in horror.

“Dodge, Mr. Chu!”

With Blaze grievously wounded, Chu Qitian too was on his last legs.

No one had any doubt that neither man nor beast would survive Ye Fan's sword.

However, at the crucial moment, the injured Blaze howled toward the sky as a blistering rainbow of light emitted from its body.

With four wings suddenly spreading out, a terrifying look descended upon its crimson eyes while mysterious red markings began to appear on its originally black scales.

“Is this... its third transformation?”

Everyone present felt as if their eyes were about to pop out.

Even Ye Fan was no exception, for he was just as astounded as they were.

During its previous battle with Moon God, Blaze had already transformed twice.

Little did anyone expect it to be able to do so one more time.

Furthermore, after its transformation, the injuries previously inflicted by Ye Fan healed rapidly.

The scales that were shattered earlier were quickly replaced with newly grown ones.

Its ability to rejuvenate was so mind-blowing that anyone watching would be filled with despair.

Within a few short seconds, Blaze whose life was hanging by a thread just a moment ago had grown even more ferocious than before.

Pushing off the ground with its sharp claws, it leaped into the air and landed in front of Chu Qitian to shield him.

It then opened its jaws and caught Ye Fan's sword with a menacing bite before spitting it back out.

Swoosh!

As the sword pierced through the air, it now headed in Ye Fan's direction.

“Master, be careful!” the concerned Suzumiya Eigetsu yelled.

Ye Fan naturally didn't dare underestimate the attack as he intercepted it with a palm strike of his own.

The giant palm that was unleashed subsequently smashed into the sword.

Boom!

A thunderous explosion rang out.

Both attacks ground at each other for some time before fading away concurrently.

The unexpected scene secretly delighted everyone present, for a casual spit from Blaze was sufficient to hold off Ye Fan's all-out attack.

“D*mn it, the beast has grown stronger again!”

Ye Fan's brows furrowed tightly, as Blaze turned out to be more formidable than he expected.

Despite using part of his trump cards, he still failed to defeat it.

Meanwhile, Chu Qitian was ecstatic over Blaze's successful transformation.

“Blaze, you did it! You have narrowed the gap between yourself and your ancestors.”

Chu Qitian, initially overwhelmed by despair, was surprised that Blaze had completed his third transformation.

“Hahaha, Chu Tianfan, I have to thank you for forcing Blaze's fourth form out of him. By doing so, his bloodline grows ever closer to that of his ancestors. Hahaha...”

In his elation, Chu Qitian burst into triumphant laughter.

Every single one of Blaze's transformations was a process of purifying his bloodline.

Previously, Chu Qitian only managed to help it transform twice.

However, in the face of death, Blaze learned how to perform its third transformation which brought its strength to a whole new level.

“Chu Tianfan, it's time for you to die. Just like you said, this is the end of the line.”

With a smug glint in his eyes, Chu Qitian threw Ye Fan's words back at him.

In spite of that, the latter kept mum with a grim expression as he was prepared to face the powerful enemy.

From the looks of it, I have to use Invoke the Celestial Sky.

Ye Fan thought to himself with a heavy heart.

Initially, he wanted to save it for Chu Yuan, for it was one of his most powerful trump cards.

Unfortunately, the beast had forced him to deploy the technique ahead of his plans.

Given that Invoke the Celestial Sky would consume a significant amount of his energy, he was saving it for desperate circumstances. Unfortunately, it was no longer his choice.
