A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 1955

She might not understand how Ye Fan felt, but she could relate to those who were waiting for his return.

They must have felt exactly the same as she did when she waited for her brother alone.

“I'll help you, Ye Fan.”

After a long silence, Duanmu Wan'er made the decision.

Her eyes were full of determination when she said that.

Ye Fan did not expect Duanmu Wan'er to be of any help after spending a few days together and realizing that she knew nothing about martial arts.

Perhaps she remembered a lot about the secret techniques in martial arts, but she never mastered any of the techniques before because she wasn't interested in them.

How could someone from a different martial arts world help him master Raijin Thunderdrake?

The most she could do was to tell him the secret

techniques.

However, Ye Fan had totally underestimated her.

Not only did she remember every single secret technique, but also she remembered their insights on Raijin Thunderdrake.

“Legend has it that one will morph into a Thunderdrake upon mastery of Raijin Thunderdrake...”

“Raijin Thunderdrake isn't just about absorbing the Power of Lightning. It is about merging the power with the soul...”

“There is life in everything in this world including the Power of Lightning.”

“You have to concentrate and put in every effort to feel its existence.”

“When both your souls meet, the Power of Lightning will no longer threaten your life. You will be able to channel the power with ease and use it as your own.”

Duanmu Wan'er's voice was gentle and soothing.

She shared her ancestor's training ideology with Ye

Fan as if she were teaching a student.

Ye Fan listened to her carefully and tried to understand everything.

He was like a dry sponge sucking in all the knowledge given to him ravenously.

Needless to say, that knowledge arrived just in time for him.

Only then did he fully understand how Raijin Thunderdrake worked.

It was unlike any other technique.

Normally, mastering a technique would result in a power boost and creating a body that would be strong enough to take bullets.

However, according to Wan'er, the highest level of Raijin Thunderdrake would allow someone to have the power to channel the Power of Lightning.

It was way more powerful than the levels that he had achieved with Raijin Thunderdrake.

For the next few days, Ye Fan would go into practice after he and Duanmu Wan'er discussed the

techniques of Raijin Thunderdrake.

Whenever in doubt, Duanmu Wan'er would either depend on her memory or discuss it with Ye Fan.

Day by day as they continued, Huangniu felt neglected as they ignored its invitation to them to play together.

Huangniu felt like a third wheel.

However, it cheered up a bit the moment it saw Ye Fan and Duanmu Wan'er helping each other out.

Huangniu recalled what Mr. Long told it before his death.

“Poor Wan'er. Her brother is all the hope she has in this world.”

“Try your best to find someone who can replace her brother and take care of her. That way, she has someone else to depend on and she won't lose all of her hope even if her brother never comes back.”

It was at that moment that Huangniu realized Ye Fan could be the new hope for Wan'er.

After another seven days, Ye Fan mastered the sixth

level.

However, he was stuck again at the seventh level.

This time, even Duanmu Wan'er couldn't help him.

“I have no choice but to risk it now.”

Seeing that there was no way of mastering the seventh level, Ye Fan decided to use his current power to break through the cave.

“What the heck? Are you mad? You really don't want to live, do you? This is not something that you should joke about!”

Huangniu was appalled and angry at Ye Fan.

If it were in Ye Fan's position, it would never try breaking through the cave unless it made it to the ninth level.

However, Ye Fan wanted to try it even though he was only at the sixth level.

Nothing else could change his mind.

With the two types of power he had, he had a very good chance to walk out of the cave alive!

In the end, he decided to leave the cave the next day.

Ye Fan stopped cultivating and enjoyed his last night at the cave.

He played cards with Huangniu and brought out a few bottles of liquor from the basement.

Huangniu was amazed by the taste of liquor as it had never tried any before.

It drank about eighteen shots of liquor until it was drunk and couldn't continue anymore.

“Silly cow.” Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Ye Fan shook his head and laughed at the sight of Huangniu getting drunk.

While Ye Fan and Huangniu were drinking, Duanmu Wan'er was sitting by the stairs alone.

Curled into a ball, she stared blankly ahead of her as she hugged Ye Fan's coat and rested her chin on her knees.”

Her eyes reflected the ancient candle, which was burning beside them.

“Are you thinking of your brother again?”

Ye Fan came over and sat beside her.

Duanmu Wan'er nodded. “I'm envious of yourfamily and friends. They get to see you soon after a long wait.”

“When do you think my brother will come for me, Ye Fan? Or is he never going to come for me?”

“Maybe he doesn't want me anymore.”

Duanmu Wan'er had never felt that depressed her whole life.

Her hair was tousled by a sudden gust of wind that swept through the cave.

“No, Wan'er. I think your brother is somewhere cultivating his power and waiting for the right time to come for you.”

“I wouldn't have risk this if I have a choice.”

Ye Fan had spent almost a month in the cave.

He couldn't risk staying any longer because Junie's situation was getting more dangerous as every

minute passed.

He had to give his shot even if the odds were against him.

“You are too sweet for anyone to abandon you, Wan'er.”

“Too bad that I am the only child. If I have a sister like you, I will do whatever it takes to protect you from harm even if it means that I will have to fight against the world! But you won't be able to marry anyone because I won't allow it.”

“Why?” Curious, Duanmu Wan'er asked.

“lean never bear to let my sister marry any other guy!” Ye Fan said.

As Duanmu Wan'er laughed, her melodious voice filled the cave.

“Thank you, Ye Fan. You are the first person to treat me so nicely other than my brother.”

That night, Ye Fan and Duanmu Wan'er talked about a lot of things.

Ye Fan told her about his past, the war at Chu Sect, his days in school, and how he got married.

He also told her about his friends and the beautiful scenery in China.

Duanmu Wan'er's views of him changed when she heard his stories.

Back then, Ye Fan seemed odd and distant to her.

Now, she realized he had feelings just like any other human.

“Your life is so interesting, unlike mine. All I have seen is this cave.”

Ye Fan shook his head. “Interesting? I have been through countless sufferings.”

“And who knows? Maybe it will all end tomorrow.”

Ye Fan acted as if it were nothing, but deep down he was actually afraid.

Below the lair was a sea full of the Power of Lightning-

Even if he had two types of martial arts power shielding him, the chances of him getting out alive were still quite low.

However, he couldn't possibly stay and continue cultivating because he felt that he wouldn't make much progress even if he cultivated for another three to five years.

Furthermore, he didn't have much time left.

Even if it meant death, he had to give it a shot!

After a moment of silence, Duanmu Wan'er suddenly turned around and faced Ye Fan.

“Don't worry, Ye Fan! I will make sure that you won't die.”

What?

Ye Fan was stunned. “Do you have another way, Wan'er?”

Duanmu Wan'er lowered her head as she blushed.

“There's indeed another way. But you have to promise not to tell anyone else about it, especially my brother!”
