The Man In Rage novel Chapter 1939

“Let's put aside the nuclear bomb, or other means you thought could threaten my life. Tell me, what are you going to do if you can kill me?

“The moment you use the strength of the entire nation to threaten a Supreme, you have set up the whole country as the enemy of the Supreme! In that case, I won't have any burden killing any one of your citizens then.”

Despite the expressionless look on his face, Ye Fan's calm-sounding warning had an undertone of murderous intent, fury, and craze.

“Y-You...”

King Folo's mask ofcalm and confidence cracked. His body trembled with fear at Ye Fan's threat.

He pointed at Ye Fan with shaking fingers and roared, “Madman! You're a madman! How could you even think about harmingthe people?

“Aren't you scared? Your action might provoke all the fighters from the martial arts world to come after you? Have you no fear that it will destroy your reputation in China's martial arts world?”

Ye Fan's words horrified King Folo and Haibu.

There was a consensus within the martial arts world.

No martial artists could release their wrath upon the citizens no matter what, especially supreme grandmasters. After all, they possessed the strength to destroy the whole world.

They could obliterate a city within a day at their will.

Realizing the extent of what the Supreme's terrifying capabilities could cause, the International Martial Arts League had come up with a new rule. Any action that involved the killing of the general public would be severely punished by all martial artists in the martial arts world.

Every country had its elite fighters, and they were responsible to capture and kill those who broke the treaty.

It was the rule and the bottom line.

It was rare that anyone would go against it, but that didn't mean no one did.

Once, there was a mayor who seized another man's wife and daughter.

That man went into hiding for decades and achieved Supreme rank when he turned eighty.

Upon achieving the Supreme rank, that man annihilated the mayor's entire family and city to exact revenge on the mayor's despicable action.

Half a million people had lost their lives that day.

Even though that man had a reason for his actions, martial arts leaders from a few nations insisted on imposing a death sentence on him despite many others pleading for his case.

It was the red line that supreme grandmasters could never cross.

So never once had King Folo expected the hooligan in front of him to say he would commit such a horrendous act.

What is he thinking? Is he anti-humanity? Also, I thought the Chinese cared deeply about benevolence?

A few thousands of years of implementing etiquette lessons in their education had ingrained tolerance and benevolence in the Chinese populace.

They practiced repaying gratitude with kindness and retaliating resentment with virtue.

When Japan committed a heinous crime against the Chinese during the Second World War, the Chinese exempted war reparations from the Japanese despite the terrible act.

Moreover, anyone who researched the world's maritime history would be surprised to find that the western nations sailed across seas and oceans to commit war, plundering, massacres, and colonization against the lands they stepped foot on. They stole other countries' riches and brought them back to their homeland.

In contrast, China's most famous sea voyager was a diplomat who traveled to the Central continent. His travels were earlier than anyone from the West. Instead of going into war, he brought silks and ceramics for trade. China was bringing wealth and riches to strangers in faraway lands across the sea.

The Chinese also propagated the moral influence theory of atonement.

King Folo had actually liked to form diplomatic ties with nations that adopted such benevolent acts.

When one treated that country well and the people would reciprocate with kindness a hundredfold.

They wouldn't retaliate even if one had treated them badly. They would have a chat to sort things out at most. They might even send some gifts as a plaster over the wounded relationship.

That was what retaliating with virtue meant.

Yet, the man standing in front of King Folo at that moment seemed to have thrown away this practice and tradition.

What happens to benevolence? If we're talking about kindness, he should obediently nullify all his powers, then retreat to China and vow to never step foot in India.As for his woman, we'll release her after a couple of years of monitoring his behavior.

King Folo and the rest had no intention to release Junie immediately, even after Ye Fan did what they asked.

They planned to monitor Ye Fan for a few years. Once they made sure he had no intention to exact revenge and was no longer a threat, only then would release Junie.
