“It looks like I'm going to die today,” Ye Fan mocked himself upon detecting the prowess of the three people outside the cave.
Despair colored his handsome features.
Having given up, he sat there and waited for the experts of the Chu Sect to arrive.
Considering how powerful they were, he was fully aware that whatever he did would be futile.
With his current strength, he could not even put up a fight against a wild dog, much less a Grandmaster.
Just like that, Ye Fan sat in the cave and quietly anticipated their arrival. He waited for them to enter the cave, discover him, and bring him back to the Chu Sect.
At that moment, a few loud booms sounded outside the cave.
On the heels of that, a series of explosions thundered outside.
Later on, silence returned to his surroundings.
“Huh? What happened?” Ye Fan, who was hiding in the cave, was very confused.
He tried his best to move to the entrance and see what was happening.
However, he had barely taken a few steps before Gaius appeared at the entrance.
Behind him were the other Dragon Slayers.
When the four of them saw Ye Fan, their eyes reddened instantly.
“Master, y-you...”
Gaius and the rest stood rooted to the spot and stared at the man in front of them in disbelief.
They could not believe that all-powerful Chu Tianfan, the Hall Master of the Dragon God Hall, had fallen into such a miserable state.
There were blood and injuries all over his body.
His initially handsome face was completely drained of color due to feebleness.
Is he still Dragon Master? Is he still Chu Tianfan, who used to strike terror in everyone's heart?
If it were not for the fact that he could still see Ye Fan's face clearly, Gaius would have thought that the person in front of him was an old man who had one foot in the grave.
Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!
Gaius and the other three fell to their knees.
As their heavy bodies slammed onto the ground, the rocks disintegrated, and the entire mountain shook.
When Gaius and the rest, who had experienced all sorts of hardships in the world, kneeled, tears streamed down their cheeks.
“Master, Earth God, at your service...”
“Fire God, at your service...”
“Please punish us for being late to your rescue, Master!”
“Please punish us, Master!”
Boom!
The four of them prostrated themselves, tears trickling down their faces incessantly.
When they slammed their foreheads against the ground, holes were formed from the impact.
At that moment, Gaius and the rest were filled with anguish and remorse.
They blamed themselves for not showing up on time to assist Ye Fan, causing him to be severely injured.
Ye Fan merely laughed as he stared at them.
His weak voice sounded. “Why did you guys come? Who told you that I'm here?”
Perhaps because he was too weak, he coughed out another mouthful of blood when he reached the end of his sentence.
At that sight, Gaius and the rest panicked even more. “Master, don't speak anymore. Here's the medicine Junie told me to bring. It should be able to help you recover your strength faster. However, I don't know how effective the medicine can be, considering your serious injuries.”
As Gaius spoke, he quickly passed a bottle to Ye Fan and urged him to take the pills.
Soon, those pills transformed into wisps of pure energy, slowly nourishing the latter's battered body.
Although the effects were not significant, the medicine at least helped him regain some of his strength.
Gritting his teeth, Ye Fan could stand up slowly and walk.
“Master, you can't stay here for long. When I came, the Chu Sect was searching for you all over the mountain. Let's bring you out of here first. You'll be safe once we return to Jiangdong.”
