A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 1746

It pained Tang Yun deeply to hear how bitter Ye Fan's laughter sounded.

“Ye Fan, I... You...” She wanted to explain herself, but couldn't seem to find the right words no matter how hard she tried.

In the end, all of her conflicted feelings turned into questions instead.

“Why? Why did you hold back? We agreed to fight till the death, didn't we?” she asked coldly.

Her eyes reddened as she tried really hard to suppress her emotions.

“Haha... Yeah, you're right. We were supposed to fight till the death. I suppose I only have my own stupidity to blame. In fact, I'm probably the biggest fool in history!”

Ye Fan's eyes were filled with self-mockery and bitterness when he said that.

Great-grandma used to say that I have one fatal weakness, and that is my being too sentimental! In the pursuit of martial arts, only those who have no desires are able to keep going forward. It's fine if you meet someone egually sentimental, but if you meet someone heartless, it could very well cost you your life. I never really gave Great-grandma's advice much thought because I believed I wouldn't get attached to anyone heartless, but it looks like I was wrong. I treated Tang Yun with utmost sincerity, but what did I get in return? An icy-cold sword through my arm and her equally cold words about fighting to the death. Heh, just my d*mned luck, I guess...

With that in mind, Ye Fan's expression grew cold, and the look in his eyes turned gloomy as he said, “This is where it all ends, Tang Yun. I was planning on sparing you in view of our past relationship, but now, I don't think that's necessary anymore.”

Meng Wanyu was terrified when she saw him looking like that.

There wasn't a slightest bit of warmth left in him.

It was almost as if Ye Fan had turned the devil in the blink of an eye.

“W-What's he going to do?”

“Is he still not giving up?”

“Unbelievable! Absolutely unbelievable! Is he seriously going to challenge Ms. Tang with one arm left?”

Chu Zhengliang and the others were unable to comprehend what Ye Fan was thinking.

Buzz...

Just then, a low buzzing noise caught the attention of the crowd.

“Huh?”

“Hmm? What's that noise?”

Everyone was glancing about in confusion as they tried to figure out where the sound was coming from.

“It's the sword! The sword is moving!” someone shouted all of a sudden.

Everyone turned toward the direction of the noise and saw the Sword of Yunyang vibrating like crazy while embedded in the ground.

It looked like it had a life of its own as it continued to buzz and vibrate.

As if it had been summoned, the sword burst out of the ground and flew straight back into Ye Fan's hand.

“W-Whatthe...”

“Has this guy lost his mind?”

“Is he seriously going to challenge Ms. Tang to a sword fight?”

Everyone was shocked when they saw him wield his sword, especially Chu Zhengliang.

“Is this guy an idiot or what? Ms. Tang is famously known as The Best Swordmaster for a reason! Does this rascal really think he'd stand a chance against her in a sword fight? He's only going to make a fool out of himself and die!” he spat disdainfully.

The other Chu Sect members, too, had mocking smiles on their faces as they watched from the side.
