A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 2145

Ye Fan's voice was loud, and Thunder Jade in his hands was glowing brightly. Bathed in a green light, Ye Fan looked like the Great Emperor Yunyang in person.

Blaze froze in his tracks as Ye Fan's aura was too intimidating.

Its eyes turned wide as saucers as it stared at Ye Fan and the jade in his hands.

Blaze seemed confused and baffled.

“There is hope!”

Above Mount Yunding, Li Er and the rest watched them anxiously.

Demonic Duo had defected, so as long as Ye Fan could get Sacred Beast to surrender to him, the odds would be in their favor.

However, Blaze stayed still for over ten seconds before finally shaking its head.

It seemed to be indicating that it didn't remember any vow or glory.

Blaze couldn't remember anything except that the person who was in possession of Jade Eyes was its master.

Chu Qitian erupted in laughter. “Ha! Chu Tianfan, don't waste your time. Blaze will only follow the command of the one with Jade Eyes, and that's me. You're not worthy of commanding it! Blaze, obey my orders, and take out Chu Tianfan!”

Blaze's reaction pleased him immensely, and he was no longer worried.

He immediately controlled Blaze to unleash the last attack.

To everyone's surprise, a black figure leaped into the air right this moment.

The huge Blackie emerged in front of Blaze in the blink of an eye.

Before Blaze had the chance to respond, Blackie swiftly raised its paws and brought them down with a loud smack on Blaze's head.

Smack, smack, smack!

Blackie smacked Blaze's head repeatedly, producing sounds akin to a percussion instrument.

With every slap, Blackie let out a bark that seemed to say, “Beast, do you remember now? If the answer is no, then I shall continue slapping you!”

Just like that, Blackie smacked Blaze's head for about one hundred times. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Initially, Blaze was fuming with rage.

As Blackie slapped it continuously, Blaze soon began to remember a long-forgotten memory that was buried deep within its brain, stirring to life.

A hazy tall figure emerged from the memory buried deep in its brain.

At first, the figure was blurry. Nevertheless, as Blackie kept kicking its brain, the memory became more vivid.

The image in Blaze's mind soon became clear. It was a man wearing Thunder Jade holding aloft Sword of Yunyang.

He had a proud, handsome face, and his smile was as icy as the cold winter wind.

Beneath his feet lay an enormous creature, identical to Blaze in every way.

The two shared a knowing smile, then turned and set off on their journey together.

They met on earth but conquered multiple places together.

“After my death, Demon Flame Clan shall bow to Chu Sect and protect them, the descendants of Yunyang.”

Finally, Blaze remembered everything.

The huge beast in Blaze's memory was his ancestor, and the human figure in its memory was its ancestor's master, Chu Yunyang. Chu Yunyang was the ancestor of the man standing before Blaze.

The memory from thousands of years ago overwhelmed Blaze's heart and mind.

Roar!

After the memory passed on to Blaze was reawakened, it let out an emotional and elated roar following the reunion thousands of years later.

Blaze no longer paid any heed to Chu Qitian's orders. It rushed toward Ye Fan and bowed to the latter.

It behaved as if it were a pet being reunited with its long-lost master after thousands of years.

“Blaze, you...”

The sight shocked everyone senseless.

Chu Qitian, in particular, had his eyes opened so wide they were almost popping out of their sockets.

Never in his wildest dreams did he expect his Jade Eyes would lose its effects.

He shook his head incredulously and asked, “How can this be? I'm your master, Blaze. Why are you bowing to him? Is it because he is in possession of Thunder Jade, the relic left by Mr. Yunyang?”

He couldn't fathom that someone who vanished thousands of years ago could have such a far- reaching impact in the present day.

A mere token that without any practical functions was able to make the Chu family surrender, and Blaze turn against him.

“Why? Why is this happening to me? I refuse to accept defeat! Why did it have to be Chu Tianfan? Mr. Yunyang, how could you be so unfair? You made the wrong choice! We are both your descendants, but my bloodline is superior to Chu Tianfan's. Why did you choose that disowned child over me? I demand an explanation!” Chu Qitian's face twisted in rage as he screamed at the heavens in a frenzied state.

He had lost his final trump card after Blaze turned against him.

Resentment filled his heart as flames of anger licked through him.

He hated how unfair and biased Chu Yunyang was.

“Chu Qitian, do you still not know why you lost?” Ye Fan's voice was cold and emotionless. His face showed no expression despite Blaze's submission to him.

“That's enough! Chu Tianfan, stop speaking to me in such a condescending tone! You have no right to be arrogant. If it weren't for our ancestor's favoritism towards you, you would have been dead by now. I didn't lose to you, I lost to Chu Yunyang, our ancestor who is biased! If you didn't have Thunder Jade, you would have met your maker by now. I should be the one laughing in the end! It should have been me!”

Jealousy, indignance, and fury churned within Chu Tianqi, driving him to the edge of madness. An ugly scowl crept up his face.

Ye Fan didn't rebut Chu Qitian's accusations.

“You're right. Without our ancestor's blessing, I, Chu Tianfan, wouldn't be where I am today. But have you ever stopped to think about why Mr. Yunyang chose me over you? Why did he give me the name 'Tian' and not you? You may be extremely talented, but Mr. Yunyang values not just martial ability but also a person's character and morals. You and your father have resorted to dishonorable methods to achieve your goals. You took Angie's eyes by force. Because of that, Mr. Yunyang would never have acknowledged you. It's pointless trying to talk sense into you, for I know you won't understand and you will refuse to understand what I'm saying. The winner takes it all, it's time for you to give up. You've committed many evil deeds and deserve to die, but you are still Mr. Yunyang's descendant and we are from the same sect. I will not take your life today. Instead, I'll bring you back and let you be punished according to the clan's law.” Ye Fan looked directly at Chu Qitian and spoke in a low voice as though he was delivering a verdict.

As soon as he finished his speech, Demonic Duo took action and leaped to Chu Qitian to capture him.

Chu Qitian tried to resist, but Demonic Duo delivered two blows and broke his ribs. He spat out a mouthful of blood and no longer had the strength to resist.

After capturing Chu Qitian, Ye Fan turned to look at Chu Yuan.

“Mr. Chu, how are you going to deal with Old Master? Are you really going to kick him out of the family?” Demonic Duo asked.

They had followed Chu Yuan their entire lives and couldn't bear to see him suffer, so they ended up asking Ye Fan to spare his life.

To their surprise, Ye Fan snickered icily. “Old Master? Don't be foolish. Your Old Master is already dead. This person is merely pretending to be him.”

What?

Everyone was struck dumb by Ye Fan's words.

Demonic Duo could barely hide their shock.

“What? Are you saying he isn't Old Master? But how could that be? Who else could be this powerful besides Old Master? Mr. Chu, are you mistaken?” Demonic Duo refused to accept reality.

Ye Fan didn't bother explaining things to them. “It doesn't matter anymore. Today is the day he dies. My comrades, loved ones, and friends have died because of him. I must kill Chu Yuan today to avenge them.”
