The Man In Rage novel Chapter 1735

The next minute elapsed in silence until Tang Yun finally spoke her mind.

“I don't think now is a good time to talk about a revival. It's true that our sect holds considerable clout here, but from a global perspective, there are other people who are equally good like Tsukuyomi Tenshin from Japan. No one—not even I—dare claim to be a shoo-in when facing him in combat. Locally, we are also seeing a surge in the number of competent martial artists, so talks about dominating the realm should wait. We can't act too rashly.”

“But Ms. Tang—”

“This is not up for discussion.” Tang Yun cut off the elders, who begged to differ.

“Further discussion will have to wait until my master returns.”

Now that Tang Yun spelled the final verdict, no one said another word.

“Where is the Jones family, by the way? I'm expecting to see representatives from their family.”

Tang Yun was perplexed when she realized one of the Three Families of the Chu Sect was absent.

“Maybe they are on the way?” Chu Zhengliang suggested. “I heard that something happened in the family a few days ago. Maybe the head of the family is still seeing to it.”

Chu Zhengliang smiled, still drinking his tea.

His question reminded Tang Yun of the agreement between the Chu family and Ye Fan.

“Did anyone from the Chu family go to China?” she asked.

It's almost been a month already.

“Well, I've sent someone over already. I guess it's about time the messenger returns,” Chu Zhengliang said casually.

Tang Yun was alarmed. A frown stitched above her beautiful eyes. “You didn't go yourself?”

“Why should I?” Chu Zhengliang asked in return with a slight laugh.

“Sending a few men over is already good enough.”

“For real?” Tang Yun was piqued. “Have you forgotten about the promise you made to Chu Tianfan a month ago? How dare you go back on your word by sending just a few messengers to relay your apology? Has the Chu family forgotten that Chu Tianfan is the first on Sky Ranking? Now that you've failed to deliver onyour promise, do you think your family will be able to bear the consequences?

Tang Yun did not expect the Chu family to take their promise so lightly.

Are they not afraid of retribution ? What if Ye Fan comes for the family?

Despite Tang Yun being incensed, Chu Zhengliang was still enjoying his drink calmly. He waved his hand dismissively, assuring Tang Yun that everything would be just fine. “Nah, you don't have to worry about that, Ms. Tang. He might have topped Sky Ranking, but he's still a deserted child at the end of the day.

There's nothing he can do to the family. There are also good fighters in our family. My dad is a good case in point. Getting an apology from a prestigious family like us is already kindness shown to him. Someone like him should be satisfied with seeing our messengers. Besides, I doubt he has the guts to come all the way up Mount Chumen.”

Chu Zhengliang smiled confidently as he spoke, feeling that his judgment could never be errant.

To him, after Patriarch Chu returned, Ye Fan would not have the courage to act recklessly toward them anymore, but little did he know, Ye Fan was already at the entrance.

Bang! The gate of the Chu Sect Castle was thrown open immediately after.

A head covered with blood stuck out from the door crack.

“Uncle? W-what happened?”

Chu Zhengliang was disconcerted when he saw Chu Shen injured.

“C-Chu Tianfan...” the wounded man replied weakly. “He's here...”

His words echoed like a death sentence in everyone's ears.

Everyone in the castle shot up from their seats in horror.

Chu Zhengliang's wrinkled face paled. He stared at his uncle in disbelief.

"Id-uncle! What do you mean by 'he's here'? This is impossible!”

He looked at the assembly of shocked men, still trying to make sense of what he saw.

“How dare he? He's nothing but an abandoned child!”

He was stupefied - the impossible was now unravelling right in front of his eyes.

Just a second earlier, he was still optimistic and confident, but what happened the next moment completely crushed his interpretation of the matter.

Ye Fan was right there where he was.
