The Man In Rage novel Chapter 2007

Junie did not want to burn bridges since she knew Ye Fan had her best interests at heart.

However, the elders were not in the wrong either because they simply wanted to defend the sect.

In the end, Junie convinced herself that she was the one to be blamed, and naturally, she would have to pay for her mistake.

At the urging of the elders, she eventually knelt before the ancestors' and ancient masters' memorial tablets.

“Get me the rod!” roared the Master of Punishment before somebody hurriedly handed him a rod made with special materials.

Then, he lifted the instrument and was ready to swing it at Junie's back in front of everyone in the hall.

“That's going to hurt,” commented someone in the crowd.

Junie's face immediately turned into a grimace when she heard the Master of Punishment inhale deeply.

Since she spent most of her time studying medicine, Junie did not care much about her cultivation.

Hence, she feared she would feel the full extent of the pain her punisher was going to dish out with the rod.

With gritted teeth and eyes shut tight, she braced herself forthe imminent burning sensation.

Thud!

Unexpectedly, the woman did not feel anything at all.

The sound coming from behind sounded like the rod had hit something hard.

“Huh? What's going on?” When Junie turned around to see what had happened, the rod was already on the floor. As for the Master of Punishment, he grunted before staggering a few steps back.

“Ye-Ye Fan?” Junie was shocked, for she never thought Ye Fan would defend her. Not only did the man disarm the Master of Punishment, but he also drove the elder back.

Sensing that the man had made a mistake, Junie quickly dissuaded him from interfering. “Ye Fan, I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me. This is just a formality. I—” “You shut up!” rebuked Ye Fan suddenly. “Formality? The guy's about to swing that specialized rod with his Qi, and you call that formality? He's basically trying to spit on your name and injure your body too! If I hadn't stepped in, that rod would've split your skin open!”

Since Ye Fan rarely lashed out at Junie like that, she was stunned after listening to him.

Just when she was about to say something in response, the latter cut her off again.

“You're to shut up, remember? From this moment on, I'll be the one who does the talking while you stay behind me and be silent. Another word from you, and I'll toss you out of here!” Ye Fan scolded Junie like he would a subordinate.

In all the years they had known each other, he seldom talked to her so sternly.

Even to Gaius and the others, Ye Fan hardly ever spoke in that tone.

Since he had nothing but love for her, Junie never even knew the man was capable of raising his voice at

her.

Naturally, she was mortified to witness his fury firsthand.

After getting rebuked, Junie dared not to make a sound because she was too terrified to even lift her head to look at Ye Fan.

“What do you think you're doing, Chu Tianfan?”

“Do you think you have the right to meddle in our internal affairs?”

“You insolent brute!”

“Ms. Junie violated the rules and so deserved to be punished. Even she, herself, thinks so.”

“Who are you to step in?”
