"Are you saying that the Lv family harmed your family and War God Castle defended them? A-are you sure?” The God of War was instantly stunned.
He didn't expect Ye Fan to have such a huge grudge against War God Castle and the Chinese martial arts circles.
"Ye Fan, it must be a misunderstanding. You were serving the country by going to South America, so War God Castle would definitely take care of your kin. How could we make our fighters lose heart by standing by and doing nothing? We thought you were dead when you went missing. We even sent a team to help check on your family. Now you are saying that we aided someone who wanted to hurt your kin. That's absolute garbage! Who told you that?” asked Ye Qing-Tian anxiously as he frowned.
He suddenly recalled something and said, "Wait, now I remember. Someone called Lv Hua coveted your wife about half a year ago. However, I caught the man and sent him to the martial arts court for sentencing. We have already taken care of that, and the culprit was sentenced to death by the courts. Did you have go around killing so many people when no physical harm was done to your wife? Don't you think you're overreacting?”
The God of War spoke deeply with displeasure.
He clearly thought that Ye Fan had slaughtered all those people for what happened six months ago.
He thought that he had already taken care of the matter and had answered to Ye Fan's family.
So now that Ye Fan couldn't let it go and wanted to seek justice on his own, Ye Qing-Tian became very upset.
He felt that Ye Fan was being petty and too eager to kill from the way he wiped out the Lv family over a minor matter that had been taken care of ages ago.
This personality of his was very unlovable.
"Sentenced to death? God of War, do you
think I'm an idiot? If Lv Hua was dead, then who was the man wreaking havoc in Jiangdong and bullying my family? Who is the man War God Castle is harboring right now?” asked Ye Fan rhetorically as he laughed coldly.
God of War was stunned. "What do you mean? You mean Lv Hua wasn't executed back then and he even continued to wreak havoc in Jiangdong?"
Something dawned on Ye Qing-Tian, so he turned to look at the King of Fighters.
"King of Fighters, what's going on? I recall you were handling this. Did you let Lv Hua go?” asked God of War coldly as he suppressed his fury.
All along, only the most serious cases were sent to the martial arts court.
In his memory, no one sent to the martial arts court ever came out alive.
By sending Lv Hua to the martial arts court, it was as good as giving him a death sentence.
From the looks of it now, something had changed without his knowledge.
"Well..." The King of Fighters avoided eye contact with the God of War and his voice sounded muffled.
He clearly felt somewhat guilty.
"God of War, we reopened the investigation for the matter. Lv Hua simply admires Ye Fan's wife. It's only natural for men to be attracted to pretty women. Don't you like the Chu Sect leader yourself? A few of us decided that although Lv Hua was in the wrong, he didn't deserve death. After we punished him, he was repentant, so we spared his life,” explained Mo Gu-Cheng.
He made no mention of how Lv Song-Liang visited him bearing lavish gifts to bribe him.
