A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 1597

The King of Fighters' voice echoed throughout the lobby.

Nonetheless, Sword Saint didn't respond to him but gazed at Ye Qingtian, who hadn't uttered a word ever since he arrived. “War God, what do you think?”

After a while, Ye Qingtian replied, “I've already discussed it with you before, and my stance remains the same. Before investigating the matter thoroughly, it's too early to conclude that Ye Fan is part of the Chu Sect.”

“War God, how can you favor Ye Fan so much? Why did he protect Tang Yun if he isn't from the Chu Sect? How do you explain it?” Mo Gucheng questioned.

“Well, he could be doing so to repay her a favor,” Ye Qingtian responded calmly.

“Repaying her a favor? Can he go up against China and the War God Castle for the sake of repaying her a favor?” Mo Gucheng sneered.

“How could Tang Yun ever escape if Ye Fan didn't sabotage me?

“Also, the hundred thousand people in China wouldn't have died if he didn't do so.

“Moreover, I could have killed Tang Yun already!”

One could feel the resentment and anger in the King of Fighters' tone.

Nevertheless, Ye Qingtian remained composed and said, “No matter what you say, it's purely speculation.

“Do you think it's appropriate to punish a supreme grandmaster based on speculation?

“It will be fine if Ye Fan is from the Chu Sect. However, what if Ye Fan helped Tang Yun only to return the favor to her? How can the War God Castle keep its head up?”

“Besides, Ye Fan was ordered to join the battle in the rainforest and successfully killed two elders from the Chu Sect.

“Besides, even Yuan Lingguo was willing to impart his knowledge to Ye Fan.

“Do you think this looks like something that a spy from the Chu Sect would do?

“Therefore, I think there are many unanswered questions about whether Ye Fan is part oftheChu Sect. It's too early for us to conclude it now.”

Since Ye Qingtian's explanation was logical and justified, the King of Fighters was stunned and didn't know how to respond.

“Humph! Even if what you say is true, Ye Fan indeed protected the head of the Chu Sect.

“And now, we can't avenge the people of China because of him.

“What excuse can you come up with to justify his action?”

Mo Gucheng continued to argue.

Ye Qingtian nodded in response without rebutting him. “About this, Ye Fan indeed made a mistake.

“Nonetheless, it's not a grave mistake that leaves us no choice but to revoke his Supreme title.

Once Ye Qingtian finished, many who initially wanted to kill Ye Fan changed their mind.

Despite that, Mo Gucheng refused to let it go. “The head of the Chu Sect escaped because of Ye Fan.

“Also, we failed to avenge the people of China because of the same person.

“Aren't these reasons solid enough to sentence Ye Fan to death?”

Mo Gucheng continued to dwell on it and questioned Ye Qingtian.

At that time, Ye Qingtian didn't answer but gazed at Sword Saint instead. “Regarding this, I think you should ask Sword Saint.

“After all, I was only putting forward my suggestion.

“All of you should decide how to deal with the situation.

“However, my stance on Ye Fan hasn't changed.

“I think he has a strong sense of righteousness.

“As long as the martial arts world in China doesn't disappoint him, he will never disappoint us in the future.

“However, please consider the consequences if you're determined to destroy him.

“Judging from Ye Fan's prowess nowadays, it's difficult to kill him!”

Ye Qingtian reminded everyone sternly.

Despite the horrible incident in Jiangdong, Ye Qingtian's attitude toward Ye Fan didn't change much.

All the more so, Ye Qingtian still thought Ye Fan would be his best successor in the future.

As for the accusation that Ye Fan was in cahoots with the Chu Sect, Ye Qingtian thought it was rather unlikely.

After all, Ye Fan didn't do anything against the martial arts world in China ever since Ye Qingtian knew him.

Although all signs in the Jiangbei tragedy pointed to Ye Fan now, Ye Qingtian opined that it happened for a reason.
