The Man In Rage novel Chapter 1489

But now, Ye Fan was saying that he was leaving.

Ye Fan had left them for long periods of time before in the past, but Li Er could sense that it was going to be different this time.

This was the first time that he had glimpsed uncertainty in the young man's eyes.

The sight seemed incredulous.

Li Er knew very well how proud Ye Fan was.

He had shown no hints of uncertainty even when he had charged into Jiangbei or stormed Mount Yan alone. He had faced down numerous Chinese supreme grandmasters without the slightest hesitation.

But the arrogance and confidence that he once had seemed to have fled him this time.

Li Er could tell that this time, Ye Fan might not be coming back.

He found that unacceptable.

He was like the grass growing at the foot of the mountain, who had woken up in the morning to find out that the mountain that he had relied on for shade and shelter was gone.

No one would shelter him from the storm now!

"Mr Chu, I can't do this. I really can't! I know nothing else but flattery and buttering someone up! You're the reason why I am where I am today. Without you, I'll just be a lazy good-for-nothing...I know what I'm capable of. I won't be able to run Jiangdong without you...Mr Chu, please don't leave...Miss Qiu can't do without you too!" wailed Li Er.

Snot and tears stained his face. He looked like a young woman who had been spurned by her caddish lover.

Ye Fan simply smiled.

"Stop crying like a girl. Don't worry, besides setting up that formation, I will also be leaving the Green Dragon Force in Jiangdong. With their support, you'll be able to help me keep Jiangdong safe. Don't underestimate what the Invoke the Celestial Sky Formation is capable of. Even those old fellows from War God Castle will take a while to breach the formation when it's fully activated. Alright, I've said my piece. Remember what I told you. I'll be heading to Fenghai tomorrow. Don't tell Mu-Cheng what I told you. You can go now."

Ye Fan seemed exhausted. With a wave of his hand, he sent Li Er away.

Li Er's eyes were red. He gave Ye Fan a final glance before he left. "Mr Chu, will I see you again?”

Ye Fan laughed.

"What are you going on about? I'm not going on a suicide mission. Stop dawdling and get out of here. Remember, guard Jiangdong on my behalf," Ye Fan said before chasing Li Er off.

He was left alone on Mount Yunding.

The smile on Ye Fan's lips faded away now that Li Er was gone and the faint mirth on his face was replaced with intense solemnity.

Li Er had been right. Ye Fan wasn't confident of his chances.

Even though he had been planning for this for the past ten years, he remained uncertain if he would succeed.

After all, he was going to take on a longstanding family and sect that had dominated great parts of the world for centuries.

Since Ye Fan could remember, he had been taught the Chu family's strength and power and Chu Sect's invincibility.

Both the Chu family and Chu Sect were the epitome of absolute power in the world.

In fact, Ye Fan had no idea the extent of resources and power that the Chu family had kept hidden from the public eye. All he knew was the little that they had revealed.

Besides the Chu family, he also had Chu Sect to contend with.

The silhouette of a proud and devastatingly beautiful woman popped up in Ye Fan's head then.

His heart skipped a beat without any warning.

Something seemed to be tearing apart. From its ripped seams emerged bitterness and sorrow.

No matter how resilient he had grown, there were still things out there that could pierce the hardened husk around his heart.

She was the first woman who had tricked him.
