A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 152 Turning Back the Tide of Defeat

Outside, a strong wind was blowing. And hordes of vehicles continued to flow incessantly through the

road.

Inside the Mount Tai Hall, Ye Fan was standing on the stone platform with a domineering and

unyielding expression on his face. His hands were clasped behind his back and, just then, he looked as

if he was the conqueror of the world.

Standing in front of Ye Fan was Wu He-Rong. The latter's body was bloodied and his life was ebbing

away fast. Gradually, his eyes started to lose their luster. And finally, he collapsed onto the ground with

a loud crash.

At the moment before he died, Wu He-Rong was filled with resentment and regret.

He had not imagined that he would meet his end at the hands of a young brat like Ye Fan.

In the end, a lifetime of accumulation had vanished just like that.

If Wu He-Rong had known that Ye Fan would be so powerful, he would never, under any

circumstances, have accepted the job from the Chus. Unfortunately, in this world, there was no cure for

regrets.

His fate had already been decided the moment he stepped into Jiangdong.

Boom~

Wu He-Rong's nearly four-hundred-pound body crashed onto the ground with a loud bang that

reverberated through the air.

The Blood Wolf King, a person of fierce ambition, had died within this very hall. His life had been ended

with a single stroke from Ye Fan.

It was just like what Ye Fan had said before. Wu He-Rong would slumber forever at the foot of Mount

Tai.

After Wu He-Rong had fallen, Ye Fan stepped forward and kicked the body. And the blood rained

through the air as the bloodied corpse flew overhead like a kicked puppy. Finally, as the spectators

looked on in shock, it landed in front of Zhao Wu-Ji with a loud bang.

Bang-

The corpse hit the ground with such force that it bounced several times before finally rolling to his feet.

When it stopped moving, Zhao Wu-Ji had already been drenched with blood.

"This... this..."

When he saw the wretched and lifeless corpse at his feet, Zhao Wu-Ji was frightened out of his wits.

Finally, he lost all strength in his legs and collapsed onto the ground.

Before this, he had thought Ye Fan was just an inexperienced brat. In his opinion, Chen Ao had made a

joke out of the whole thing by letting Ye Fan fight in the match.

However, unexpectedly, the hitherto despised young man had cut through the air and ended Wu He-

Rong's life in one stroke; thereby shocking the whole of Jiangdong with his illustrious and aweinspiring

feat.

At this moment, the whole place was quiet.

The shocking scene caused the spectators to suck in their breaths. Now, they were all sitting in their

seats with their mouths agape.

What had just happened before their eyes was beyond their expectation!

Li Xiao-Hong had long gone into a daze. Just then, she was staring blankly at Ye Fan, as he stood on

top of the platform receiving the adulation of the crowd.

Meanwhile, Liu Jia-Wei's eyes were opened wide with shock. He had been completely struck dumb

when he saw Ye Fan killing Wu He-Rong in one blow. Only then had he realized what kind of person he

had provoked.

Wang Yu also had a look of disbelief on his face. He sat rooted to his seat and, even though his mouth

was open, he could not get a single word out.

The entire hall was deathly quiet; so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

The sound of mocking laughter had already vanished and there was no trace left of the disdain that had

been displayed by the crowd.

Ye Fan had slapped everyone in the face with the naked truth.

At this moment, everyone was keeping their mouths shut. They no longer dared to insult Ye Fan.

Within the enormous hall, only Chen Nan's happy laughter could be heard. "I knew it! My Fan is the

best!”

Chen Nan smiled demurely. On her pretty face, her mouth was curved into the shape of a crescent

moon. From a distance away, she looked at the man who was the center of attention while a bright and

ambiguous light sparkled in her eyes.

Ye Fan continued to stand on the platform with his hands clasped behind his back.

His eyes were filled with authority and his lips were curved into a cold smile. As his deep gaze swept

around the area, he looked like a king surveying his domain.

In front of him were the shocked faces of nearly ten thousand spectators and, behind him, Mount Tai

stood towering into the billowing clouds.

Under the heavens, Ye Fan turned to face the crowd and took a step forward. A moment later, his

authoritative words reverberated through the air and resonated with everyone who heard him.

"A spark sets the prairie aflame and shakes the world! The Chu dragon sighs and speaks my name!

Tian-Fan!"

"From today onward, I am the master of Jiangdong."

"Is there anyone here who objects?"

Boom~

A gale sprung up in the hall. Ye Fan's words exploded like thunder and their boundless majesty swept

through the whole area.

Everyone was struck dumb by his majestic presence.

Under the influence of this majestic presence, even personages such as Lei San and Wang Jie-Xi felt

the urge to prostrate before Ye Fan.

Heavens-

Was Ye Fan truly just a young man in his early twenties?"

Just judging by his spirit, courage and resourcefulness, even Chen Ao could not be compared to him!

As the people of Jiangdong wavered in indecision, Li Er was the first to step forward.

He offered a fist-salute, bowed at the waist and then spoke respectfully to Ye Fan: "Mr. Chu, your

majesty is matchless. It is Jiangdong's good fortune to have you as our master."

"From today onward, on behalf of Yunzhou, I, Li Er, will recognize you as liege!”

After Li Er had spoken, Lei San also stepped forward after a brief moment of hesitation. And then he

bowed at the waist.

"Jingzhou of Jiangdong will also recognize you as liege! From today onward, I, Lei San, will follow the

biddings of Mr. Chu!”

After the two had expressed their loyalties to Ye Fan, Chen Ao also took a step forward and bowed

docilely to Ye Fan.

"On behalf of Jianghai, I, Chen Ao, will recognize Mr. Chu as the master of Jiangdong!"

"And follow his every bidding!"

Boom~

Like a rock dropping into the ocean, Chen Ao's words stirred up waves among the other leaders.

After the trio had spoken, the other Jiangdong leaders also stepped forward to pay their respects to Ye

Fan. And their reverential voices coalesced into a stream that swept through the entire hall.

When they saw this, the spectators in the stands were all rendered speechless by shock.

Many of them understood that, after today, a new era was going to begin in Jiangdong.

Before this, Chen Ao and Zhao Wu-Ji had been overtly and covertly fighting over Jiangdong.

Undoubtedly, Ye Fan's appearance had ended the fight between the two rivals. Now, there was only

one ruler in Jiangdong.

From today onward, there would be only one voice in Jiangdong.

The Mount Tai Tournament. Wu He-Rong had crossed the ocean to come here and, after slaying

several people in succession, he had stirred up huge waves in

Jiangdong. Xing He had been scared off by his majestic presence and escaped without stepping into

the ring. Afterward, during his fight with Meng Bai-Chuan, Wu He-Rong had killed the chief instructor of

the armed forces with just two punches and a kick.

Wu He-Rong's prowess had shocked the whole of Jiangdong!

However, just as everyone had been reeling in despair, at a crucial moment in the fight for Jiangdong's

survival, one man had stepped forward resolutely and determinedly.

And then, at that critical moment, he had turned the tide of defeat.

With absolute majesty, Ye Fan had ended Wu He-Rong's life of sin with a single blow.

Such majesty? Such might?

In the whole of Jiangdong, who would not submit to him?

Undoubtedly, Ye Fan had gained renown after this one fight!

"Ye Fan, you were right. When were you ever lost in the darkness?"

"You have always been dazzling. Wherever you are, there will be light!"

As she looked at the young man in the white shirt, who was being revered by the leaders of Jiangdong,

Li Xiao-Hong started murmuring to herself. Just then, her eyes were shining brightly with awe.

Before this, everyone had thought that Ye Fan's words were mere bravado.

But now, Li Xiao-Hong and everybody else knew exactly what kind of existence was standing before

them?!

At another corner in the hall, Su Qian's eyes were filled with reverence and longing as she looked at

the blurred back view of the star of the moment.

"Cheng-Cheng, after today, this Mr. Chu will be renowned throughout the whole of Jiangdong~"

Inwardly, Su Qian was overwhelmed with emotion and admiration. She truly wished she could gain Mr.

Chu's favor and become his woman.

"Without a doubt, every woman on this planet will envy me to death-” Su Qian exclaimed faintly.

But nobody noticed that the peerlessly beautiful woman beside Su Qian was trembling as she stared at

the back view of this Mr. Chu.
