The Man In Rage novel Chapter 1582

When Ye Fan was leading the Four Dragon Slayers in their final intensive training, Mount Chumen far away was in peace.

It was already in the middle of the night. The faint light from the moon cascaded down on the ancient gate.

From time to time, guards on the night shift were patrolling around the gate.

“Don't you think the Chu family has offended anyone? Earlier on, their former patriarch had disappeared mysteriously. Now that the new patriarch has just taken his place, they seem to be facing endless obstacles.” One of the guards pointed out in bafflement.

After patrolling a few rounds, the guards huddled up and chatted to pass the time. All of them were the disciples of the Chu Sect. As the Chu Sect and the Chu family's residences were both located on Mount Chumen, the members of the Chu Sect tended to obtain first-hand information about the Chu family's latest condition.

“Doesn't it make sense for the others to target the

Chu family out of jealousy? At the moment, they are deemed the most prestigious family in the martial arts world. Subsequently, those envious of their fame tend to spell trouble for them. By the way, I wonder how those who hardly own any rankings in the martial arts world are able to stir any turbulence. After all, I presume any hiccups stirred by them are nothing for the Chu family.” A slender man sitting with his back leaning against the stairs expressed his points of view casually. After that, he lit a cigarette and started puffing on it.

“But it seems to be different this round. I heard they've lost almost half of their source of income. Those families who have been supporting the Chu family financially all this while have either taken others' sides or ceased their supply abruptly. As a result, the Chu family is on the brink of bankruptcy. A few days ago, the young heir of the family even swallowed his pride to borrow money from our elder! Don't you think it's ridiculous? How could the most prominent family in the martial arts world end up in such a predicament? If I'm not wrong, the construction of all the new bungalows in the Chu residence is currently on hold too!” the guard continued to babble.

The other guards were dumbfounded. One of them asked quizzically, “My goodness! Is that true? They

even need to borrow money?”

Meanwhile, the slender man who was puffing on his cigarette was stupefied. He could not resist but heave a silent sigh.” The Chu family seems to be in a precarious state at the moment. I wonder who's the one giving them such a massive blow!”

“How is it possible that the Chu family doesn't take any actions to retaliate? It doesn't sound like their style.” Someone pointed out again.

“I guess they must be waiting for the ideal timing to give their foe a deadly retaliation. Apart from that, have you noticed that the patriarch of the Chu family seldom shows up nowadays? I heard he's having solitary training for the time being, and I wonder how much his combat prowess will be enhanced after that. If he turns out to be as mighty as our head, I foresee she will be replaced by him soon!” the guard alongside him commented.

“Our head will be replaced?” Someone gasped, dumbstruck.

Another guard explained, “Didn't you sense anything? At the moment, our elders seem to have a lot to comment about her. Quite a few of them are even suggesting replacing her with a new candidate!”

The guards continued to gossip enthusiastically about the latest news related to the Chu Sect.

In the meantime, a white-haired elderly man was pacing up and down in the Chu residence. He was none otherthan Han, who had been waiting faithfully for Ye Fan's return.

Staring into the distance in the courtyard, he mumbled to himself, “The Dragon God Token has been activated for quite a while. I bet Master is now with the Dragon Slayers and will be back soon. Is it finally the long-awaited moment for us to declare war against the Chu family?”

He had spent ages preparing for it with Ye Fan. Even so, he felt a rush of indecipherable complex emotions when the day was finally approaching. Prevailed by hints of agitation, anxiety, and fear, he had been having sleepless nights.

The condition was exacerbated when he became more anxious after knowing that Chu Zhengliang was currently under solitary training.

Undoubtedly, Chu Zhenghong and Chu Zhengliang were well-known as the most formidable fighters from the Chu family. Many years ago, the two siblings were known as the Invincible Duo of The Chu due to

their unrivaled combat prowess.

It was indeed Chu Zhengliang's era, especially before Chu Zhenghong, Ye Fan's father, was indulged in the martial arts world. At that time, everyone even presumed that he would be the next patriarch of the Chu family.
