The Man In Rage novel Chapter 2340

“Keep dreaming your pipe dreams!” Ye Fan flatly refused without a second thought.

He could bear with the several days' journey, largely due to the protection of Chu Yunyang.

Without him, the Chu family would not exist, much less the Book of Celestial Cloud.

Throughout the journey, the belief that Ye Fan held on to make it to the end despite the countless hardships and predicaments he encounters was mainly the power and magic of the Book of Celestial Cloud rather than his tenacious character.

One must never forgot their roots.

Ye Fan, having received such profound blessings from Chu Yunyang, would never let the authority of Mundane Sword Deity deter him from acknowledging his own ancestor.

Upon hearing the news, Jian Boyou was instantly wide-eyed.

“You really don't know what's good for you, Mortal. When I was alive, countless people cried and pleaded to become my disciples. They were delusional to think they could be one! Yet, I didn't take any of them. Not a single one. Now that I'm offering you the position, and you actually dare to refuse? Have you thought properly about this? If you agree to my terms, honor me as your master, and become my disciple, I will not only give you all my lifelong teachings, but even this celestial palace of mine, I will bestow upon you. This celestial palace of mine is indeed a valuable treasure. Back then, the value of the celestial palace where Chu Yunyang resided couldn't even compare to mine. All these are yours. All you have to do is just agree to my terms!” Jian Boyou enticed Ye Fan patiently and skillfully.

He had fallen into ruin many years ago, leaving behind only a wisp of his soul remnant.

He had given up any hope of seeking revenge against Chu Yunyang in his lifetime.

However, if he could take Ye Fan as a disciple, that in itself would be a form of revenge against Chu Yunyang.

At that prospect, naturally, Jian Boyou would be enthusiastic.

However, in response to Jian Boyou's words, Ye Fan's determination didn't waver. “You can give up on that idea, for I will never accept you as my mentor. I, Chu Tianfan, have thrived till this day, all thanks to the legacy left by Mr. Yunyang. The bloodline of the Chu family flows within me. If I accept Mr. Yunyang's enemy as my mentor, it'll be an act of disrespect, betrayal, heartlessness, and treachery toward him. I will never betray my ancestor. I won't change my mind even if you grant the celestial palace to me.”

Ye Fan's tone was firm, not allowing any room for negotiation.

Upon hearing his refusal, Jian Boyou didn't get angry. Instead, he laughed and said, “I didn't expect this from you. You're quite loyal and righteous. Fine, I won't force you. Since you are unwilling to accept me as your mentor, you may leave. I, Jian Boyou, will wait here for the next destined person to arrive. When the time comes, I will have my successor kill you. You are Chu Yunyang's successor, and if my disciple defeats you, it'll be as if I have defeated Chu Yunyang myself. Thus, you must stay alive until my successor appears.”

Jian Boyou laughed arrogantly. Since he couldn't take Ye Fan as his disciple, he would have to resort to another method to get back at Chu Yunyang.

“Don't worry. I'll be waiting. However, I fear that your legacy will be cut short when the time comes since your disciple will die by my sword,” Ye Fan sneered, not bothering to exchange pleasantries with Jian Boyou before turning around and walking away.

After saying that, he turned and walked away.

“Ye Fan, please don't go...”

Duanmu Wan'er, however, watched with urgency.

She wanted to persuade Ye Fan to stay, but he had already left the palace, seemingly unwilling to linger for even a second longer.

Duanmu Wan'er sighed resignedly. “Ye Fan is being too impulsive.”

Actually, she felt that Ye Fan could have accepted Jian Boyou's request first.

Jian Boyou had long since fallen, and his soul remnant probably wouldn't last much longer.

Moreover, the power of his soul remnant could only manifest within the celestial palace.

In the future, after Ye Fan gained control of the celestial palace and even the skills of the sword deity, he could do whatever he wanted after leaving the place.

Jian Boyou, trapped in the celestial palace, could do nothing against him.

Unfortunately, Ye Fan was not even willing to agree verbally.
