The Man In Rage novel Chapter 2226

Angie chuckled. Her gentle laughter was refreshing to the ears.

Meanwhile, Ye Fan was stunned while feeling as though a sense of warmth was spilling out from a crack in his heart.

I didn't realize I held such an important spot in her heart. It seems like there is still someone in the world who unconditionally trusts me, so much so that she's willing to put her life in my hands. Silently, he hugged Angie tight, like a wounded tiger being comforted by a pleasant warmth.

“What's the matter, Ye Fan? Did your expedition to Mount Yan fail?” While Angie might have lost her sight, her other senses remained sharp.

She could feel the loneliness swirling within Ye fan's heart, as though he felt abandoned by the whole world.

Squeezing out a smile, he gently scratched Angie's nose and said, “It's nothing, Angie. I think I'm just worn out. Still, as tired as I am, it's all over now. Tomorrow, I'll take you somewhere far away from Jiangdong, China, and the mortal coil. We'll go to a pure, tranquil land without villains, murders, and conflicts, just as you wanted.”

She cheered upon hearing that, looking like a child who successfully stole candy.

“Let's go, Angie. Follow me inside. We'll spend this last night with Great-grandma.” He pulled her hand, guiding her into the building.

Just as they entered the living room, Old Madam Chu saw his wounds and commented, “Ye Fan, your body—”

In response, Ye Fan gestured for her to keep quiet.

He didn't want Angie to learn he was in a fight again.

“Take care of Blackie while I help Great-grandma grab some stuff from outside, Angie. Don't let it chew on random objects.” After making up that excuse, he exited the building with Old Madam Chu.

Ye Fan stood under the moonlight illuminating the courtyard and spoke with slight shame. “I failed, Great-grandma. I didn't destroy Dragon Gate or bring it away from Mount Yan.”

“It's fine, Ye Fan. You'll have another chance in the future. Mount Yan is the holy land of China's martial arts world. I was already aware it wouldn't be easy for you to succeed, considering how many powerful martial artists are gathered there,” comforted Old Madam Chu.

In response, he shook his head. “I'm sorry, Great-grandma, but I don't want to get involved anymore.”

What? Her expression shifted slightly as she questioned anxiously, “You should know what'll happen to the world if their conspiracy succeeds, Ye Fan. Furthermore, you're the only one capable of preventing this disaster. Are you going to sit by and watch the world burn?”

Ye Fan chuckled miserably. “What's the point? I did my best to save the world, and what did I get in return? Scorned by the people I tried to save as scum of the country. Even my most trusted friend used the ultimate technique I taught him to ambush me. I've had enough of this cold, filthy world. Why should I protect it when its people spit on my effort? They've made their decision, and I made mine. It's up to them now whether they live or die.”

His eyes were filled with a look of self-deprecation as he sneered with sorrow.

Old Madam Chu persuaded, “I know you feel aggrieved, Ye Fan. But—”

“I've made up my mind, so stop trying to change it, Great-grandma. Frankly, I'm exhausted. I've fought against the world for long enough. I'm truly sick of it. Tomorrow morning, I'll leave with Angie. In the future, when the world does face its end, I'll pick you up and bring you to an untainted land.” He clearly didn't want to listen to her anymore.

With that, he returned to the building.

Staring at his back, she opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but ended up sighing instead.

She could tell Ye Fan had been utterly disappointed by the world.

“Perhaps all of this was preordained.” Instead of trying to convince her grandson, Old Madam Chu accepted his decision to leave.

Meanwhile, Moryana was participating in a video call inside a secret room on Mount Yan.
