At the top of Genting Mountain, Tang Rui’s cold, angry voice echoed uncontrollably.
It was like rolling thunder, sweeping in all directions.
And Ye Fan, covered in wounds, fell to the ground.
The Moon God was similarly bloodstained in her dress, as if she were an angel with broken wings.
However, even though her body was covered in wounds, the Moon God still clung to her master.
Her soft and delicate body was just like that, protecting Ye Fan’s body.
“Son of a b*tch!”
“Hurt our Dragon Master!”
“We’ll fight you!”
Seeing Tang Rui’s three palms in a row, severely injuring Ye Fan and the Moon God and the others, Gaia’s group’s eyes turned red.
They hissed and raged as they charged towards Tang Rui with swords in hand, recklessly.
“All… Stop it all…”
However, this time, Ye Fan still gritted his teeth and stood up, his frail body looking towards Gaia and the others as his weak words rang out once more.
Once again, Ye Fan stopped the Dragon God Temple people’s counterattack.
“Dragon Master, why?”
“This woman, but she wants you to die.”
Gaia and the others were extremely puzzled, he did not know why Ye Fan had stopped them from standing up for him one after another.
“She… She’s right, it’s… It’s me, Ye Fan, who deserves to die.”
“It’s me, Ye Fan, who is guilty.”
“It was indeed me, who failed Mu Orange.”
Ye Fan spoke in a low voice, and above the corners of his mouth, fresh blood dotted.
Facing Tang Rui’s attack, Ye Fan did not have any complaints, and even more so, he did not have the slightest thought of fighting back.
However, Ye Fan’s heart was full of doubts.
He raised his head and looked at Tang Rui: “Aunt Tang, I… I want to know, Mu Orange, where is she now… Where is she now?”
“I… I want to go and meet her.”
Perhaps he was too badly injured, or perhaps he was bleeding too much, Ye Fan only felt weak and black in front of his eyes.
But even so, Ye Fan still gritted his teeth and stood, trying hard to hold on.
From Tang Rui’s words just now, Ye Fan had already heard that the Tang family’s eldest lady in front of him seemed to have met Mu Orange.
Now that Chu Yuan was dead, Ye Fan’s grudge against the Chu Clan had been settled.
It was time to make up for the rest of his days with his loved ones.
Especially his wife, Qiu Mu Orange.
Yup.
Just as Tang Rui said, the one he had been most sorry for all these years was perhaps Mu Orange.
Nominally, though, it was his own wife.
Alone in Jiangdong, taking care of his mother for him, and also guarding the foundations of Jiangdong for him.
Ye Fan, on the other hand, rarely went back to see her.
Especially after the battle at the Chu Gate back then, for nearly three years, Ye Fan had not contacted Qiu Mu Orange once.
At that time, Ye Fan was thinking of not disturbing her before his great revenge was avenged and before his great work was finished.
Now, it was time, too, to get back his Mu Orange.
Whether or not Qiu Mu Orange was still in love with him now.
But it was always time to go and see her.
There were some things that Ye Fan wanted to say to Qiu Mu Orange face to face.
“Meet her?”
“You should stop being paranoid.”
“She won’t see you.”
“At least, you will never see her until she is stronger than you.”
Tang Rui’s words were icy cold, a burst of anger in her morose words.
A single word, but it dispelled all of Ye Fan’s thoughts.
“Then… Is she alright then?”
Suddenly, sorrow came to Ye Fan’s heart.
With trembling lips, he asked again.
But Tang Rui did not want to answer him, and turned to lead her sister, Tang Yun, to leave.
“Aunt Tang, please… Please…”
“Can you tell me about… About the current state of Mu Orange?”
As Tang Rui was about to leave, Ye Fan suddenly knelt down.
His eyebrows were red as he inquired towards Tang Rui.
Perhaps, he was touched by Ye Fan’s behaviour.
Tang Rui’s heart, after all, softened for a moment.
“For Mu Orange’s situation, you don’t have to worry.”
“I have taken her as my disciple, and she is now studying under me.”
“And you should not presume that you can find her.”
“Mu Orange is now cultivating in another world.”
“If your destiny has not yet ended, you will meet each other later.”
Tang Rui’s cold words echoed quietly.
After saying this, Tang Rui took Tang Yun and prepared to leave.
However, at this time, Ande Man and the rest of the Chu Sect suddenly stopped Tang Rui.
“Miss Tang, you can’t just leave like this.”
“This Chu Tianfan killed my Chu Sect’s Sect Master and exterminated my Chu Sect’s thousand-year old foundation.”
“You are a member of the Tang family, that is, the three families of the Chu Sect, please, Miss Tang, preside over the situation for us, kill Chu Tianfan, destroy the Dragon God Hall, and revive the prestige of my Chu Sect!”
Ande Man and the others, clearly took Tang Rui, as the last straw to save their lives.
However, Tang Rui’s attitude was not positive.
Her indifferent gaze swept over the battered and bruised Chu Clan men in front of her and said coldly, “You are afraid that you are overthinking.”
“From the time I left the Tang Family back then, I was no longer a member of the Chu Sect.”
“What does the survival or death of the Chu Sect have to do with me?”
“This…” Tang Rui’s reply was like a pot of cold water pouring down.
Ande Man and the others were directly dumbfounded.
They trembled and asked Tang Rui in disbelief.
“But… But Miss Tang, you… Didn’t you come here today to… to save the Chu Sect from danger?”
Tang Rui returned, “Of course not!”
“I’m here today because I’ve been asked to deliver a few words to that negative man.”
“All life and death are destined by heaven.”
“Chu Yuan’s death in battle and the destruction of the Chu Clan, all this can only mean that the Chu Clan’s qi has run its course.”
“I advise you, it is better to respect the will of Heaven.”
Tang Rui’s few words undoubtedly shattered the only hope left in Ande Man and the others’ hearts, completely.
And then, Tang Rui took Tang Yun, who was seriously injured, and left the Out Door Mountain.
However, when she pa*sed by Chu Yuan’s corpse, Tang Rui suddenly paused for a moment.
His gaze swept over the strewn corpse at his feet.
And then, his brow furrowed.
She turned her head once again and looked at Ye Fan: “Brat, that b*****d old dad of yours told me to tell you.”
“Don’t think that after defeating Chu Yuan and overthrowing the Chu Sect, you can rest on your laurels and thoroughly enjoy life.”
“The catastrophe has, in fact, just begun.”
“Continue your cultivation and intensify your preparations for the battle.”
“Prepare for, the real cataclysm.”
Icy words that could not stop echoing.
When Ye Fan raised his head to look again, the two stunning figures had already disappeared from the crowd’s sight.
With the Tang Rui sisters gone, Ye Fan, who had been relying on his faith to support him, could no doubt not hold on any longer.
He saw his body tremble and crimson blood came out of his mouth.
Then, his thin body collapsed helplessly like that.
In an instant, the world before him fell into silence and darkness.
“Dragon Master!”
“Little Brother Fan…”
Before he collapsed, Ye Fan only heard a burst of worry and anxiety coming from his ears.
——
——
Darkness.
The endless darkness.
It was as if, alone, one was trekking over a vast wilderness, lifting one’s feet, which would never end.
At last, between the haze, a light shone in.
The darkness, which had been grey and dull, was suddenly and completely illuminated.
It was a spacious and luxurious room.
Ye Fan remembered this place.
This was the Genting Mountain Villa, Ye Fan’s former home.
The room was unusually quiet.
The clock pendulum on the wall ticked away.
Outside the brilliant sunlight streams in like water.
Ye Fan lay on his bed.
And beside the bed, was Ranggong Ying Yue, who was dressed in a vegetarian group.
This silly girl, who was obviously still injured herself, was at Ye Fan’s bedside despite her own injuries.
At this moment, she was even lying on the edge of the bed, asleep.
Perhaps it was because she felt Ye Fan’s movement, the Moon Girl, who was in a daze, quickly woke up.
To Rangong Ying Yue, the happiest moment in life was to wake up and find his master, smiling at her.
Just like now.
Ranggong Ying Yue rubbed her eyes, thinking for a moment that it was a dream. “Stop rubbing, silly girl, I’m awake.”
