A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 2156

With a yell, Ye Fan swung Sword of Yunyang toward Chu Yuan with fury.

The Chu Sect members were shocked.

“No! How dare you?” Anderson and the others gasped in horror.

Despair and fear filled Chu Yuan's aged countenance.

He never expected Chu Tianfan to be that willing to kill him.

With no other way out, he placed his last hope on Tang Yun. “Save me, Yun!”

Even though Tang Yun had been defeated, he was aware of the relationship between her and Ye Fan.

If Tang Yun was willing to protect him with her life, then there was a chance Ye Fan might obey her wishes.

As he expected, Tang Yun still possessed love for her master.

Without delay, she dashed toward Chu Yuan, opened her arms, and used her body to block Ye Fan's attack.

Swoosh!

Ye Fan's blade narrowly avoided injuring Tang Yun, but the weapon still managed to cut a few strands of hair on her forehead, and its sharp sword energy still left a shallow wound on her face.

Blood then slowly trickled down from the cut.

It's the same scene again. Back then, she was the reason I missed the perfect opportunity to wound Chu Yuan severely in Chu Sect. I didn't expect the same scenario to repeat years later. I can't believe Tang Yun is still willing to use her own life to stop me. With an icy expression, Ye Fan roared, “I don't want to kill you, Tang Yun! Step aside!”

His violent aura brought on powerful gusts of wind, causing the hair on Tang Yun's forehead to flutter.

Even though she was badly injured, and her face was somewhat sickly pale, she still stubbornly stood in front of Chu Yuan, blocking Ye Fan's path.

“Just kill me. He's my master. As long as I live, I won't allow anyone to harm him.” The look in her eyes was resolute, as though she was prepared to face death. While I still can't remember many things, I can recall my childhood. My mother passed away when I was young, my father was obsessed with martial arts, and my sister was lovesick. Ever since I was a child, I didn't receive any familial love and was even ostracized by my family. Chu Yuan was the one who took me in, treated me as his own flesh and blood, taught me martial arts, and even allowed me to become the head of Chu Sect. It's already hard for me to repay his kindness in this life, so I can't just sit by and watch him be killed.

Ye Fan was enraged. “You idiotic woman! Didn't you hear what I said earlier? This man is not Chu Yuan, and he's definitely not your master! He died a long time ago and was buried in the Chu residence's forbidden ground! The person behind you is just an imposter wearing his face!”

Of course, neither Tang Yun nor anyone from Chu Sect believed him.

After all, if Chu Yuan was dead, just as he said, then who was the person in front of them?

Someone who looked like Chu Yuan?

They had another reason to disbelieve Ye Fan. While a person's appearance could be altered, their cultivation couldn't.

No one else in the world aside from Chu Yuan possessed god realm strength, so it wouldn't make sense if he were a fake.

Hence, everyone thought Ye Fan was just making up an excuse to absolve himself of the crime of familicide.

After all, even though Chu Yuan deserved death, he was still Ye Fan's biological grandfather.

If Ye Fan denied that the man before him was Chu Yuan, then, morally, he wouldn't be accused of being unfilial.

“Cease your pointless ravings, Chu Tianfan. As the saying goes, winner takes all, so just do it,” Tang Yun spat.

In reality, after she was bested by Ye Fan, she was already considering suicide.

She found no reason to live after her pride and dignity were shattered.

That was why she was so willing to protect her master with her life.

“What a good disciple you are, Tang Yun. What a good disciple.” Ye Fan was so furious that he smiled. His eyes were red as he growled lividly, “You really think I don't have the guts to kill you? Let me tell you something. Chu Yuan must die, and no one can stop me, not even you!”

An enraged scowl settled on his face.

Then, he attempted to smack Tang Yun's forehead violently.

“Daddy, no!” Chu Lin cried out from behind him.

Ye Qingtian and the others were also getting anxious and wanted to ask him to stop.

That was because Tang Yun was a stunning beauty and a legendary figure who ruled the martial arts world for a period.

They were worried the martial arts world would become boring again if she died.

However, Ye Qingtian ultimately didn't say those things out loud because Ye Fan had fought his way through many enemies and earned the right to decide how this matter ended.

Since Ye Qingtian and the others hadn't helped Ye Fan out, they believed they didn't have the right to interfere with his decision.

It was his choice to make whether he wanted to kill or spare Tang Yun.

Just as Ye Fan's giant palm was about to strike Tang Yun's head, she closed her eyes, peacefully waiting for her death.

Chu Yuan was shocked and admonished angrily, “You're a heartless b*stard, Chu Tianfan! She loved you! Betrayed Chu Sect for you! Yet you're willing to kill her? You're an animal, not a man!” I really didn't expect him to be this ruthless! Does he not care about his past relationship with her? So much so that he's willing to kill her? Godd*mn, is this guy still human? Back then, Tang Yun loved him so much that she was willing to cast the position of Chu Sect's head aside! She even kneeled before me and pleaded with me to spare him. I thought he still valued their relationship and that he would concede because of her. It seems like I've underestimated his determination to kill me!

Just as everyone thought Ye Fan was genuinely going to kill Tang Yun, and his palm was about to land on her forehead, in the end, he couldn't do it.

His rage eventually softened into tenderness.

I can let go of just about everything except for her. Oh, Tang Yun. Did I owe you something in my past life? he lamented silently.

In an instant, he withdrew almost all the power in his deadly palm strike, gently hitting her chest and sending her flying away.

Now, no one can stop me from slaying Chu Yuan! Wielding his blade, Ye Fan swung it toward Chu Yuan at lightning speed. “It's time for you to die, old man!”

What? Chu Yuan was dumbstruck. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

A look of fear and despair swirled in his widened eyes.

In the last moment of his life, he used nearly all of his energy to shout as loudly as he could. “No! You can't kill me! I'm your grandfather, Tang Yun's master, and the head of Chu Sect!”

As the blade was swung downward, its sword energy bore down on Chu Yuan.

Following that, a fountain of blood spurted out of his neck stump as his head dropped to the ground.
