The Man In Rage novel Chapter 2009

When Ye Fan heard Junie's playful words, he immediately shuddered. What a vixen!

Then, the man hurriedly took off, leaving Junie to her chuckles.

Junie had always enjoyed poking fun at Ye Fan like that.

Everybody knew how authoritative the Hall Master of Dragon God Hall was, but none was aware of his helplessness against a woman's tease.

After she was done chuckling, Junie quickly went after the man.

“Junie, will you be following me? Or are you staying in India? You may be brilliant in medicine, but you don't have what it takes to protect yourself. Not to mention how guileless you are. I'm worried that those old snakes are going to take advantage of you again when I'm gone,” voiced Ye Fan as he and Junie walked down the street together that breezy evening.

It was quiet since few remained outside after nightfall.

Occasionally, a car or two would pass them by, but that was it.

Ye Fan realized that he had overestimated the elders of Elysian Hall.

He thought the elders would swear their undying fealty to Junie since she was handpicked by the previous Elysian Master and had restored the sect to its former glory.

However, after what happened that day, Ye Fan realized that Junie was as respected in the sect as he imagined her to be.

Instead, she was restrained and taken advantage of.

“Come on. Be honest with me. You just like having me around, don't you? Fortunately for you, I'm an extremely helpful person. If you really want me to stay beside you a little longer, I don't see why I can't generously spare another hour to walk with you,” said Junie as she skipped ahead of Ye Fan like a playful deer, completely devoid of the authoritativeness of a sect leader.

“Stop fooling around, Junie. I'm being serious here. To tell you the truth, I'm pretty conflicted too. Even if you were to come with me, I can't promise you that everything's going to be smooth sailing from here on out. Heck, I might even put you in an even more dangerous situation. However, I'm worried about leaving you here alone too.”

Having known Junie for so many years, Ye Fan was well aware that the woman had never had to deal with devious schemers and nefarious plots since she spent most of her life alone in Xijiang.

It was only natural that he would worry about her managing a sect and its members all on her own.

“It's okay. I know you're just looking out for me, but I'll be fine. The elders can be a little stubborn with the old ways, but they won't hurt me. Undermining me is probably the only thing they'll try. Besides, you've already warned them. Seeing how terrified they were just now, I don't think they'd dare get any ideas again,” assured Junie with a smile, trying to get Ye Fan to stop being so concerned.

“Fine. If you've decided to stay, I won't force you to come with me. Just promise me you'll take good care of yourself. When I'm gone, you won't have anybody to depend on but yourself in India.”

Junie could sense his underlying message and so raised an eyebrow curiously at the latter.

“What about those in Folo Palace? Didn't you say they have surrendered to you, and I could reach out to them if I ever needed help?”

In response, Ye Fan simply walked to the lake nearby and stared blankly at it before calmly revealing, “I'm going to take them with me when I leave.”

“You're taking the Supremes with you? Wait. Does that mean...” It did not take long for someone as smart as Junie to figure out what he meant.

Junie's delicate body trembled slightly as she widened her eyes in surprise. I knew this day would come, but I never thought it would be this soon! A chapter has only just concluded, and another is already beginning?

“Don't you think you should wait a little longer? Just to be on the safe side,” suggested Junie concernedly.

Ye Fan gave her a half-hearted smile before responding, “It's been almost three years. Don't you think I've waited long enough? If I waste any more time, I'm afraid Gaius and the other old-timers won't have a chance to see their Dragon Master again.”

“But Ye Fan—” Junie still wished to change his mind, but she was interrupted before she could finish her

sentence.

“No buts, Junie. The safe side is just an illusion. No matter what we do, there'll always be risks. You can have the best plan in the world, but things won't always go as planned. That's why I don't see the point of waiting any longer. We just have to do whatever we can and leave the rest to fate.”

The night breeze blew and seemed to have carried Ye Fan's faint words to somewhere far away.

At that moment, the man recalled the first time he visited Chu Sect.
