Since her apparition had disappeared, Chu Yuan no longer had anything holding him back. Thus, he immediately instructed the men of the Chu Sect to chase after Ye Fan.
“Go! Everyone, go! No matter what, Chu Tianfan must not escape back to China!”
His bellow reverberated around Mount Chumen like a thundering explosion.
Within a split second, the tens of thousands of disciples of the Chu Sect dispersed rapidly in all directions.
After scanning his surroundings, Chu Yuan was surprised to see that Tang Yun was still around as everyone else had left, except the wounded.
“Yun, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and chase after Chu Tianfan! I would've killed him if you weren't being foolish just now! Redeem yourself now. After I catch up with them and stop Moon God, think of a way to kill Chu Tianfan. This time, don't be as foolish as before. Don't let me, Chu Zhenghong, or the Chu family bother you. Although Chu Tianfan has the Chu family's blood in him, he no longer has
anything to do with us the moment I drove him out. There should be nothing holding you back! Just focus on killing him! Do you hear me?” he rebuked while staring at Tang Yun, who was still riveted to the spot.
That time, Tang Yun did not dispute with him, merely nodding in agreement.
Not long after Moon God left with Ye Fan, Chu Yuan led the armies of the Chu Sect to launch a wide-scale pursuit of the young man.
As Moon God was injured and escaping with a casualty, she could not move fast.
Soon, Chu Yuan caught up with them.
Wielding a long sword, Moon God hovered mid-air on the horizon.
Her long dress fluttered with the breeze as she wore a look of solemnity on her beautiful face.
Chu Yuan, Tang Yun, and many other experts of the Chu Sect surrounded her.
To their surprise, Moon God did not make a move even though Chu Yuan had caught up to them. All she did was stand there calmly as though she had been
waiting for them all along.
“Have she given up on resisting?” one of the elders of Chu Sect muttered in a low voice, feeling puzzled.
Staring at Moon God, Chu Yuan narrowed his eyes too.
“You'll never escape, Moon God. Where's Chu Tianfan? Give him up to us. Otherwise, I'll kill him first, then destroy the martial arts world in Japan!”
Eyes blazing with rage, Chu Yuan scanned his surroundings.
At the same time, his spiritual energy spread out.
To his disappointment, he could not detect Ye Fan's presence at all.
It seemed like Moon God had hidden him.
At that point, he had to admit that she was quite intelligent.
Knowing that Chu Yuan and the rest would catch up with them quickly if she escaped with Ye Fan, she chose to part ways with him and stay behind to draw their attention and thus secure more time for his
escape.
“Chu Yuan, you claim that Chu Tianfan has betrayed his mentors and ancestors. In my opinion, you are the one who is guilty of that. How dare you defy your mother's words? If the ancestors of the Chu family are still alive, they would definitely kill you first.”
Moon God's voice resounded through the forest clearly as she cast her cold gaze on all the approaching fighters of the Chu Sect.
However, Chu Yuan had no patience to continue talking to her. “Stop trying to buy time! Let me tell you this. Chu Tianfan will never escape! I'm in no mood to yak with you, so get lost. After I kill that b*stard, I'll settle the score with you.”
After realizing that Ye Fan was not around, he refused to waste any more time with her and led the others away to continue searching for the man.
Yet, before he could turn around, Moon God appeared in front of him in a flash.
Chu Yuan frowned. “It looks like you're determined to oppose me. Tsukuyomi, do you truly think that Chu Tianfan can escape and survive as long as you stop me? If that's the case, you're very mistaken,” he
lamented while shaking his head.
He added, “Both of us know that Chu Tianfan is already at death's door. Anyone from the Chu Sect can kill him easily once they catch up with him. A Supreme fighter isn't even needed. Hence, it doesn't matter whether or not I'm participating in the chase.”
Sneering, Chu Yuan turned around to look at Tang Yun and the rest. “Yun, the ten elders of Chu Sect, I'll leave the task of killing Chu Tianfan to all of you. Since he's severely injured, he can't go far. You'll be responsible for one area each. Lead your subordinates and launch a thorough search. I don't believe he can escape from the Chu Sect with his injuries! My instructions are the same! Bring him to me, dead or alive!”
