A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 1897

The elder from Chu Sect had died.

Upon seeing the blood on the ground and the crushed skull underneath Ye Fan's foot, Meng Wanjun was utterly terrified.

He knew the Meng family was doomed as he had no more tricks under his sleeves. Perhaps now my only option is to kneel and beg!

“Please! I beg of you. Please spare the Meng family. If you let us live, the Meng family will do as you say. From now on, you'll reign over Jiangbei. Whatever the Zhang family is giving you, we can match them as well. In fact, we can even give you more. Now, we've almost eradicated the entire Zhang family. Since they only have a few people left, they won't be able to help you guard Jiangbei. Unlike them, the Meng family is full of capable people. We can serve you and keep the region in check!” Meng Wanjun knelt on the ground and begged.

The man, who wished to reign over Jiangbei, was no longer as prideful as he used to be. Instead, he was asking for mercy on his knees in a lowly manner.

At that moment, he was utterly helpless, and all he could do was beg humbly.

Meng Chuan and the rest were disheartened as well.

All the members of the Meng family were kneeling on the ground helplessly, resembling death row prisoners.

Upon hearing what Meng Wanjun said, Zhang Jiuling felt a surge of hopelessness.

Lu Ziming knew what it meant for him as well. We're doomed. After all, Meng Wanjun had a point. The Meng family is now more powerful than everyone else. Back then, Ye Fan only helped us because of his agreement with the Zhang family. The Zhang family was supposed to look after Qiu Mucheng, and in return, Ye Fan will look out for the Zhang family. But now that the Zhang family has crumbled, the Meng family is more capable of looking after Qiu Mucheng.

Given the situation, Ye Fan had no reason to help the Zhang family anymore.

All of a sudden, despair overwhelmed Lu Ziming, ZhangZixi, and Zhang Jiuling.

Although Zhang Jiuling didn't mind dying since he was already so old, his heart was aching for his young

granddaughter. She's too young to die!

In desperation, Zhang Jiuling gritted his teeth as he endured the weakness in his body and begged, “M-Mr. Chu, I know the Zhang family has no use for you anymore. However, could you please let my granddaughter live? She's still so young. Although Zixi is nowhere as capable as you, she's still a very talented individual in the martial arts world. Mr. Chu, please let her stay by your side. You don't need to make her your wife. All I hope is that you can provide for her in life. If you do that, I'll definitely look over you when I'm dead, Mr. Chu.”

Zhang Jiuling pleaded with a frail voice.

As a matter of fact, he didn't care about his own life. At that moment, all he wanted was for his granddaughter to live out hers.

“Grandpa, don't say that! I don't want to live if you're dead...” Zhang Zixi shook her head as she sobbed.

“Silly girl, don't be foolish. Y-You still have a long journey ahead of you. In fact, your life has just started. Once I die, follow Mr. Chu and care for him for the rest of your life, okay? Make Mr. Chu your life companion...” Zhang Jiuling said in a dreary tone.

Meanwhile, Lu Ziming kept mum and sighed upon hearing that.

Indeed, there could only be one ruler.

If Ye Fan were to choose the Meng family as the ruler of Jiangbei,Zhang Jiulingand Lu Zimingwould surely die.

However, Ye Fan ignored Zhang Jiuling completely. We've only met once. Why should I entertain him?

Zhang Jiuling couldn't help but feel a complete loss of hope when he saw how cold Ye Fan was. He won't even grant me a single request.

At that moment, the man was utterly disappointed.

He didn't blame Ye Fan, though.

After all, the latter wasn't indebted to the Zhang fa m i ly.

In fact, back when Zhang Jiuling was the leader of the martial arts world in Jiangbei, he had reprimanded Ye Fan. Besides, he chose not to lend Ye Fan a hand when the latter was in trouble.

By then, Meng Wanjun finally realized what had happened, “l-lt was you! B*stard!”

After that, he stood up abruptly and landed a kick on Meng Chuan's face. “You imbecile! How did I end up having a son like you? The Meng family is going down because of you!”

Meng Wanjun was sad and angry at the same time.

Prior to that, he was wondering what he had done to offend the person in front of him.

But now, he finally realized that his son was the cause of everything that had happened.

In a moment of rage, Meng Wanjun broke Meng Chuan's legs and started beating him up badly.

After that, he knelt before Ye Fan and begged again.

“I've already given you guys a chance, but look at what happened in the end. Tangtang and Mdm. Yue got in trouble because of me. After that, you guys destroyed Mr. Hu's house. It's time I stop being so merciful. It seems like some people are just not worthy of being treated with mercy.” Ye Fan shook his head as he decided on their fate.

Boom!

A moment later, the Earthshaking Palm suddenly landed on them.

Along with the Meng family, half of Heart Island was buried deep under Westlake.

Crimson red blood tainted the lake once again.

With Chu Tianfan's return to Jiangbei that spring, the Meng family was eradicated from the land forever.
