A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 2151

In a matter of seconds, Tang Yun delivered seven swings of her sword in rapid succession.

The power of her seemingly unending attacks engulfed the area.

It was as if Mount Yunding had turned into a glowing sea in the blink of an eye, for the shine of the sword illuminated everywhere.

Sword energy could be found in every spot of the land.

“My god... Is this really something a human is capable of?”

Jiang Yulang and the others were frightened out of their wits.

These people were the ones who thought that they had reached the peak of the world with the talents they had. They thought they had seen through the world from knowledge obtained from books.

It was at that moment they realized their decades of studying only allowed them to learn the tip of the iceberg of the world.

If nothing else, the sword energy before Jiang Yulang and his sister was challenging their worldviews.

Meanwhile, Ye Fan, who was in the middle of the sword energy, still had a look of nonchalance on his face.

Sword of Yunyang was in his hand, and it was as if the weapon was a sleeping dragon.

Once its master made the order, the dragon would wake to soar into the sky.

However, Ye Fan was not in a rush to make his move.

He quietly watched as Tang Yun twirled her sword and summon a hurricane of sword energy.

When he turned his focus back to Tang Yun's Cloud and Mist Sword Technique again, a wave of complicated feelings washed over Ye Fan.

For a moment, he thought he was back at the old house, practicing his swordsmanship with Tang Yun.

Back then, she was still his, and all was good.

He could even remember the warmth of the sunlight and the scent of the flowers of that summer.

It was still the same moon that shone upon them, but everything had changed.

Despite the melancholy in his heart, Ye Fan felt a tinge of relief as well.

He was glad that the woman he had personally trained was a good swordswoman.

At the very least, she did not let him down as she had mastered the first seven strikes of Cloud and Mist Sword Technique.

Even Ye Fan himself could not find any flaws in her moves.

She had forgotten about him, but she had become stronger.

As the saying went, a heart without a man was a heart that could wield a sword better.

On the first page of the swordsmanship guide was: The very first thing you must do is to cut ties with the person you love.

Perhaps that was the case for Tang Yun.

She had chosen swordsmanship over Ye Fan.

The complex feelings continued to swirl within Ye Fan, and the sorrow was starting to overwhelm his heart.

He felt dejected like a lost soul.

However, what the people did not notice was how sword intent was starting to accumulate as Ye Fan's emotions turned intense.

However, the sword intent was vastly different from the sword intent of other swordsmen.

It was soft, and it was an unending yearning for someone.

Moreover, the sword intent seemed to have gained a physical form after its manifestation.

Even Sword Saint and the others who were not involved in the battle were affected by it.

At that very moment, the people felt that the one standing in front of them was no longer Chu Tianfan, whose terrifying reputation preceded him. Instead, they were looking at a softhearted swordsman whose heart was filled with nothing but love.

Thus, women were charmed, and men's hearts ached as they watched on.

After a moment of being in a daze, Sword Saint snapped back to his senses and found himself covered in a layer of cold sweat.

“Did... Did this guy's sword intent just affect my emotion?”

Sword Saint was astounded.

It was something beyond his knowledge on swordsmanship.

He had no idea how much someone had to comprehend swordsmanship to be able to transform their emotions into sword intent and utilize it as a weapon.

Ye Fan was instilling feelings into the sword.

He was making his sword techniques almost alive. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

“No, that's not right. Swords should not be wielded this way. Emotions have no place in swordsmen's world. A true swordsman should only have nothing but swordsmanship in his mind. Only by doing that will he be able to train himself to be the finest swordsman. Similarly, kings must not be swayed by emotions. The strongest attack in the way of swordsmanship has to be the sword of those with iron hearts. Chu Tianfan is messing around! If he uses this move, he's bound to die!” Sword Saint said with utmost confidence.

Sword Saint had been training in swordsmanship since young. In the past, he clung to his emotions and worldly desires. Hence, he faced constant obstacles in his pursuit of the art of swordsmanship.

It was only later on did he reject his feelings and abandoned his wife and daughter did his sword techniques improved. After that, he became one of the pillars of China.

Therefore, to Sword Saint, only those swordsmen who were iron-hearted could see the right way in the path of swordsmanship.

Sword Saint was not the only one. When Tang Yun sensed Ye Fan's sword intent, she sneered in disdain.

“Is this your sword intent? Perhaps you're a man of many feelings, but unfortunately, the way of swordsmanship means training without the distractions of worldly desires. You've already made the wrong choice, so how will you ever train yourself to be the best swordsman?”

The look in Tang Yun's eyes was one of contempt.

She had relaxed after the seven continuous strikes.

Even though there was no definite victor in the battle yet, Tang Yun was already sure of who was going to lose.

Cloud and Mist Sword Technique was a technique she had inherited from her family, the Tang family, and it was as powerful as the Chu family's Invoke the Celestial Sky.

Furthermore, she was the one utilizing that technique. Therefore, there was no way Ye Fan was going to turn the tables at this rate.

Tang Yun was confident, and she took pride in her skill.

Tang Yun's chest rose and fell as she quietly panted.

“It still takes much out of me, huh?”

Tang Yun was breathing much more rapidly than before.

Regardless of everything, the rapid seven strikes earlier had tired her out a little.

Cloud and Mist Sword Technique was undeniably powerful, but it took a toll on the user's stamina.

Still, it's worth it if this takes out Chu Tianfan.

Tang Yun was rather pleased.

Then, she stood still and stared at the spot ahead of her, waiting for Ye Fan to be defeated by her Undefeatable.

Alas, things did not go as she expected them to.

Right as Tang Yun's strike reached the spot in front of Ye Fan, he finally moved his Sword of Yunyang.

He moved as quickly as lightning.

The only thing the crowd could see was Ye Fan looking as if he was dancing with his Sword of Yunyang.

Sword energy burst out of Sword of Yunyang.

At the start, Tang Yun was unperturbed by the sword energy.

To her, Ye Fan was someone she did not need to be wary of even if he knew how to fight with a sword, for she felt he barely qualified as a swordsman.

How can someone who favors Form over power in sword fighting be capable of coming up with a powerful sword technique?

Therefore, even though Ye Fan had started to counterattack, Tang Yun still had a confident and prideful look on her face—she continued to look down on Ye Fan.

It was as though she was a master swordsman watching a young boy do his first swings.

She was so confident in her swordsmanship that she simply could not fathom anyone coming close to her in terms of skill.

However, Tang Yun's composed demeanor did not last for long.

In no time, Ye Fan had dealt his first strike.

“The universe beckons while the crescent moon begs for me to hold it! The first strike of Cloud and Mist Sword Technique: Wind Flow!”

Whoosh!

The sword pierced through the air as the glint of the blade lit up the area.

A crescent began to form where Ye Fan's sword swung.

That was a shape formed by the condensation of sword energy—the physical form of sword intent.

The moment Tang Yun saw that, she was stupefied.

Her pretty eyes widened. Shock and confoundment were written across her usually-somber face.

“W-What? This is Cloud and Mist Sword Technique! H-How can this be? How can Chu Tianfan know my family's Cloud and Mist Sword Technique? This is impossible!”

Astonishment crashed onto Tang Yun like tidal waves.

She could not believe that an outsider to the Tang family was performing her family's exclusive technique.

The sense of superiority she had previously dissipated.

It was replaced by confusion and surprise.

Who is Chu Tianfan? Could it be that he's someone who has a deep connection with my family?
