A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 2228 Part Ways

“Ms. Xu, why must you bring this upon yourself?”

Great sorrow filled Han's eyes.

Is this love? Despite knowing that you will get hurt and even perish, you still won't have complaints or regrets. It is as though you're a moth drawn to a flame.

Han had been single his whole life. He had never liked anyone or experienced love, but after being by Ye Fan's side for so many years, he had the privilege of witnessing the most sacred feeling in the world—love.

“But, I'm sorry, Ms. Xu.”

Han let out a sigh.

It was his duty to follow Ye Fan's orders.

Therefore, after being moved for a brief moment, Han ordered, “Stop her.”

Several martial artists, initially from Dragon God Hall, rushed out from behind him and restrained Xu Lei.

“Let go of me! Let go of me! I want to look for Ye Fan! Let go of me!”

Xu Lei struggled violently but to no avail.

Those from the Xu and Xue families were filled with sorrow and pain. Nevertheless, they remained silent and simply watched the scene.

That's right. What else can we do? Even Dragon Master couldn't do anything about it and accepted the reality. What can we, minions, do? We also want to live and die with Dragon Master and go

against the whole world with him.

Alas, those thoughts were ultimately their own wishful thinking because Ye Fan himself had left.

While Xu Lei was crying, a white figure appeared before them suddenly.

When Xue Renyang, the head of the Xue family, saw him, his eyes widened in shock. “War God, Ye Qingtian!”

Likewise, Han was shocked, and he was instantly on alert. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

The martial artists he brought with him immediately surrounded Ye Qingtian, forming a semicircle.

“You're the War God, right? Ms. Xu and Master aren't blood-related. She has nothing to do with Master's affairs. Is the War God Castle going to violate its own rules and willfully kill people who aren't his family too?” Han questioned, his eyes turning cold.

Ye Qingtian glanced at him. “You've misunderstood the situation. I came here just to tell Ms. Xu not to head to Jiangdong lest she be implicated.”

“What? Aren't you here to kill us as ordered?” Han was stunned.

Ye Qingtian shook his head. “Of course not. Hunting down Ye Fan is not my intention, but my abilities are limited. Many things are beyond my control. I'm sorry that things have turned out this way,” he said apologetically and ashamedly in a deep voice.

“War God, can you think of a way to save Ye Fan? Since you're China's War God and the leader of the martial arts world in China, you can certainly change all of this!” Xu Lei pleaded, her voice choked with tears.

Ye Qingtian let out a sigh.

“It's too late. Everything is too late. Martial artists from various countries are already rushing to China. The top four elites on the Empyrean Ranking have reached Jiangdong, and the strategic bomber carrying nuclear bombs has already taken off. Everything is set in place. I'm afraid it would be impossible for him to escape this time.”

Gloominess rose in Ye Qingtian's heart.

He never expected the International Martial Arts Union to be so determined to kill Ye Fan that they would deploy the four elites on the Empyrean Ranking to carry out the execution.

Their intentions were clear.

They wanted to kill Ye Fan in one blow and would not tolerate any mishaps.

In Ye Qingtian's opinion, one elite on the Empyrean Ranking was enough to subdue Ye Fan.

With four of them and a strategic bomber, Ye Qingtian could not think of any way that Ye Fan would be able to extricate himself from the doomsday situation, no matter how hard he racked his brain.

Xu Lei trembled upon hearing Ye Qingtian's words. Her mind went blank, and her legs became so weak that she almost collapsed on the ground.

Han and the others immediately went forward and supported her. They wanted to take her to the hospital, but Xu Lei refused.

She did not want to go to the hospital.

She wanted to go to Jiangdong instead.

“Are you insane? Even nuclear bombs are deployed. Why would you go there?” Xu Lei's family members questioned her worriedly.

Others came to advise her too, but Xu Lei was adamant about going.

Regardless of the fate she would face, she wanted to see Ye Fan.

“Fine, Ms. Xu. I'll bring you there. Although I can't save Ye Fan, I can still protect you.” Ye Qingtian was deeply touched by that sight, so in the end, he decided to bring Xu Lei to Jiangdong to see Ye Fan.

“However, Ms. Xu, no matter what happens to Ye Fan, you have to promise me that you will control your emotions. The martial arts world of various countries now harbors great hostility toward Ye Fan. Even if you aren't blood-related to Ye Fan, you will surely get implicated if they find out you have feelings for him.”

Before they left, Ye Qingtian made Xu Lei promise him that.

Afterward, with Xu Lei in tow, he headed for Jiangdong.

Besides Ye Qingtian, the devil-hunting squads assembled by various countries, as well as Moryana, Asura, Odin, Emir, and the four elites on the Empyrean Ranking, were also on their way to Jiangdong.

The strategic bomber, escorted by several fighter jets, had taken off in northwest China and headed toward Jiangdong.

A huge net of death was being cast at Jiangdong, and the Grim Reaper's scythe was approaching.

Ye Fan had arrived at Mount Yunding Villa once again.

Angie, clad in a black dress, stood beside him silently while holding his hand.

Before Ye Fan were people from Jiangdong who had come to send him off.

“Mr. Chu, I have secretly sent your relatives to India according to your instructions. Ms. Junie says she will fully cooperate with you by receiving them as well as concealing their identities and providing them protection. Everything is ready. Please leave this place immediately. If you don't leave now, it will be too late!”

Li Er was also suddenly informed of the news that Ye Fan was declared anti-human and an enemy of the whole world.

Although he did not know how Ye Fan had ended up in such a situation, he was worried about the latter's safety and wanted him to leave Jiangdong immediately.

“Indeed, Mr. Chu. You should go now! The people from the International Martial Arts Union will arrive at any minute!”

Chen Ao, Lei San, and the others had not fully recovered yet.

Despite their injuries, they still rushed to Yunzhou to send Ye Fan off one last time as they thought it might be the last time, they would see him.

Chen Nan, who was standing beside Chen Ao, was sobbing uncontrollably as she looked at Ye Fan.

In the end, she even buried herself in Ye Fan's arms and wailed at the top of her lungs.

“Ye Fan, you will come back, won't you? Will I still be able to see you in the future?” she cried.

When Chen Nan learned that Ye Fan was leaving, she felt terribly heartbroken and miserable, though she did not understand why.

It was as if someone had ripped her heart out.

She really wanted to ask Ye Fan to take her away with him, but she could not bring herself to say it.

She was not related to Ye Fan in any way, so she did not have the right to make such a request.

Moreover, her father would never allow it.

“Nan, don't be willful. Don't ask what shouldn't be asked,” Chen Ao scolded. He then made Chen Nan let go of Ye Fan so that she would not delay his departure.

However, Ye Fan smiled warmly and gently stroked Chen Nan's head. “Even if it's just for the sake of our pretty Nan, I, Ye Fan, must return to Jiangdong alive. Don't worry. We will meet again,” he uttered.

Then, he took a final look at the land.

It was the world he had conquered, and he was about to leave it behind.

“Everyone, live well. Till we meet again. Mr. Li, don't forget what I instructed you to do. That's all I have to say. Goodbye!” he voiced.

Ye Fan waved at Li Er and the others before heading off into the distance with Angie.

Time had run out.

He could feel four terrifying auras charging in their direction.

Thus, he could not afford to delay any longer.

Ye Fan dreaded to think of the sorrows that ensued after their parting, nor could he pour out his feelings to anyone.
