A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 2323 Tremors

Ye Fan's words were truly a wake-up call.

Just like the morning bell and the evening drum, everyone present was filled with embarrassment and shock.

“Unrivalled Supreme... You can't just simply utter nonsense! It's just a tree, how... how could it possibly have such immense destructive power?”

Everyone was trembling and speaking in shock.

Now, it had been just over a year since the battle against the Symborsus.

The entire martial arts world had just enjoyed a few years of peace.

But now, Ye Fan had stated that a crisis even more terrifying than the Symborsus was going to happen.

This undoubtedly filled everyone with extreme terror.

However, everyone still found it somewhat hard to believe.

“Hall Master Chu, are you perhaps being affected by the matter of the Symborsus? You seem to have imaginary fears. Even if this divine tree is magical, it's still just an inanimate object. It can't move, so what kind of danger or harm could it possibly bring us? Besides, over the past year, we've greatly benefited from this divine tree, without experiencing any discomfort or abnormalities.”

Everyone was speaking all at once, coming up with all sorts of reasons to refute Ye Fan's point of view.

The more Ye Fan heard, the angrier he became.

“You short-sighted bunch, after all you've been through, haven't you learned your lesson yet? The Chu Sect appears peaceful and harmless when they are not waging war. When the Dragon Gate is not activated, it still bestows its grace upon you, allowing your strength to surge. But, what's the outcome? Because of your shortsightedness and indulgence, Chu Sect nearly wiped out the martial arts world, and the Symborsus almost completely annihilated these martial artists. Now, this Universe Tree has grown so powerful. If we don't find a way to eliminate it soon, we might as well wait for the world to end.”

Ye Fan then continued, “This time, the implications will extend beyond just the martial arts world, encompassing the secular world as well, involving everyone. Your father, mother, son, and daughter... They all will die. Even the Earth is destined for destruction. You bunch of fools, fend for yourselves.”

Ye Fan shouted in anger and stormed off furiously.

Beneath Mount Kransbay, everyone was astonished and silent.

After leaving Kransbay, Ye Fan headed straight for the sacred mountain in India.

Now, the Universe Tree had fully matured. Even if Ye Fan gave it his all, he wouldn't be able to damage this tree in the slightest.

Left with no other choice, Ye Fan had to return and once again seek Duanmu Wan'er's help to figure out a solution.

As Ye Fan returned to the secret realm, elsewhere, in the land of Kransbay, people were still deeply shaken by Ye Fan's words.

“What do we do now?”

“Is this divine tree truly another disaster?”

Many people stood frozen in place, momentarily at a loss for what to do next.

Although, up until now, this divine tree had not shown any signs of malice.

Deep down, everyone still believed that this divine tree was beneficial and harmless.

However, what Ye Fan just said was not without merit.

After all, any intelligent creature knew how to disguise itself.

Back in the day, Chu Sect deceived the martial arts world with his disguise. The Symborsus from another world took advantage of human greed, almost wiping out all the Supreme masters around the globe.

The seemingly harmless divine tree before their eyes might just be brewing some sort of scheme.

“This matter is of great importance. I suggest we report to the higher-ups. As for what to do in the end, let's leave it to the martial arts leaders of our country to discuss and decide.”

Within the crowd, someone suggested.

After all, Ye Fan's words concern the life and death of all mankind.

These individuals were among the upper echelons of martial arts worlds in various countries and held esteemed positions.

However, they were also acutely aware that they did not have the authority to make decisions on matters of such magnitude, matters that concerned the very survival of humanity and the fate of the Earth.

After making their decision, the masters present began to report back to their respective martial arts leaders in their home countries, each using their own methods.

On Mount Yan of China.

The War God Castle, even after reconstruction, remained under the control of the Sword Saint and his companions.

Upon receiving the news, their expressions drastically changed. Without delay, they summoned the high-ranking officials of War God Castle for an urgent meeting.

At this moment, Ye Qingtian was in seclusion, cultivating in South Sky Mountain.

Even so, he was picked up by the Sword Saint's warplane from South Sky Mountain and brought back directly.

“Sword Saint, King of Fighters, what's going on? What happened? Chu Tianfan has rebelled?”

After returning to Mount Yan, the God of War, Ye Qingtian, asked with a hint of confusion.

Surely something important has happened for them to urge me back!

But, what could possibly happen?

Now, the world is at peace.

The Chu Sect has been vanquished, the Symborsus defeated, and the martial arts world is now thriving in prosperity.

In the world today, the only threat, I reckon, would be Ye Fan.

After all, only that guy has the ability to stir up a big trouble.

So, the only thought in the War God's mind at this moment was that Chu Tianfan had raised an army, and he was rebelling!

He thought Chu Tianfan was trying to do what Chu Sect did, which was to control the world!

If that was really the case, Ye Qingtian believed it to be a good thing.

By then, he would undoubtedly bring the entire War God Castle with him and join Ye Fan directly.

After all, they were all from China. They would not fight each other.

Besides, fighting wouldn't solve anything.

Ye Fan's abilities were so great that even ten War God Castle wouldn't be enough to stop him!

If we can't beat them, join them. This was Ye Qingtian's thought.

Upon hearing this, both the Sword Saint and the King of Fighters were speechless. They responded with a bitter smile and said, “Pretty much.”

D*mn it!

“That rascal, has he really turned against us? It seems like he wants to emulate his ancestors, to restore the glory of the Chu family!” Ye Qingtian sighed with emotion.

Undoubtedly, Ye Qingtian had also heard about the history of the Chu family.

This family had been the most formidable martial arts clan in the world for a thousand years, with a profound heritage. Their ancestor, Chu Yunyang, even once saved the world.

However, it gradually declined over time.

And now, in Ye Fan's hands, another resurgence and prosperity had been achieved.

In such circumstances, re-establishing the reputation of the Chu family was not something that should come as a surprise.

“It's not Chu Tianfan. It's something almost as terrifying as him trying to rebel.”

The Sword Saint spoke in a deep voice.

Next, he asked the Prince of Fighters, Mo Wuya, to play a video.

In the video, there was a man standing at the foot of Mount Kransbay, speaking with words of anger.

“Do you really think the world will bestow you with gifts for no reason?”

“You guys thought the Dragon Gate Project was a blessing, but what became of it?”

“Truth be told, if this tree isn't destroyed, the consequences will be even more disastrous than what Symborsus is capable of!”

The screen kept on changing continuously.

Ye Qingtian was completely shocked, and he rose from his seat.

“Isn't this Ye Fan? What does he mean? Could it be that the divine tree is also a disaster?”

Ye Qingtian was taken aback.

Suddenly, from outside the hall, a staff member hurried over.

“God of War, Sword Saint, Emperor Aaron requests to have a talk with you!”

No sooner had these words been spoken, a few more people hurriedly entered.

“Erihal and Prince Carlo request for a call!”

“Ferropene is requesting a call!” This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

“Folo Palace is requesting a call too!”

Suddenly, martial arts leaders from several major countries around the world began to call China one after another.

Upon hearing these words, Ye Qingtian was stunned.

It seemed like a big trouble was really brewing.

After hanging up the phone, the International Martial Arts Union quickly sprang into action.

An immediate decision was made to convene an International Martial Arts Union meeting overnight, where martial artists from all nations could attend.

The focus of this meeting was a single topic.

To discuss what Ye Fan had just said.

This meeting was presided over by the Hall Master of War God Castle, Sword Saint.

Aaron and Carlo, among others, did not attend the meeting in person for some reason. Instead, they participated via video call.

Clearly, when Ye Fan made them wear shackles and chains, these people felt utterly humiliated.

They were embarrassed to attend so they had no choice but to resort to this method.

“Let's hear it from everyone, what are your thoughts and opinions on the remarks made by the Unrivalled Supreme, my fellow martial arts colleagues?”

Seated high above, Sword Saint looked at everyone and asked with a heavy heart.
