A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 609 Jade Cave of Xishan

"Sir, I was really in the wrong. I promise that I'll definitely stay out of your way and this will never happen again!" Zhou Bo-Tong said very seriously as he raised a hand to swear by these words.

Ye Fan just laughed coldly. "You humiliated me and offended me, and you think you can get away with just these words? Do you think that's possible?"

"Then what do you want? Money?" asked Zhou Bo-Tong.

Ye Fan shook his head. "I want a leg of yours!"

What?

"Youngster, how dare you?"

Zhou Bo-Tong paled terribly/

But it was too late.

Ye Fan's foot had already landed on Zhou Bo-Tong's knee.

With a terrible cracking sound, his bones broke and Zhou Bo-Tong howled and groaned in pain as he clutched his leg and rolled on the ground. The pain made his tears and mucus both flow down his face.

Zhou Bo-Tong didn't have any of that arrogance and authoritativeness he had earlier. All he was left with was embarrassment and shame.

Liang Hao-Nan watched this happen and his face instantly paled.

BAM BAM BAM...

Without saying anything else, he kowtowed another ten times to Ye Fan.

"M-Master, as long as you can spare me, I will give this jade cave to you. The jade inside is worth more than $100 million, so that should be enough to exchange for my life, right?" said Liang Hao-Nan quickly. But Ye Fan became angry instead.

"Of course! Do you think I'm stupid? I'm the one who snatched the jade cave away from Wen Liang, so of course it belongs to me. You want to use something that belongs to me to exchange for your cheap life? What an excellent plan," scoffed Ye Fan coldly. This frightened Liang Hao-Nan so bad that he thought his soul was going to leave his body soon.

"Then...then I'll give you the $5 million, and take it as...as an apology for the misunderstanding earlier? Master, you... you really can't blame me for this, that Zhou Bo-Tong was the one who convinced me otherwise."

This man was the head of a powerful family, but he was so afraid of Ye Fan that he had started crying.

Liang Hao-Nan had seen a lot in life, but this was the first time he was encountering something that was a matter of his own life and death.

He was filled with great fear and just hoped that Ye Fan would spare his life.

Ye Fan glanced at him and said, "$5

million?"

"My appearance fees aren't that cheap. Add one more zero behind. $50 million for your life. How's that?" asked Ye Fan coldly.

Would Liang Hao-Nan dare to say no?

Of course not!

Power was in Ye Fan's hands, and so was Liang Hao-Nan's life.

So Liang Hao-Nan could only listen to everything Ye Fan said and didn't dare to say no at all.

"Alright now, get lost. From today onwards, none of you are allowed to step into Xishan. Otherwise, all of you will end up like that Wen Liang!"

Booooom...

The authority of these words were like gold and rocks falling to the ground as they clanged loudly in their ears.

Everyone present nodded and agreed.

Then they quickly ran down the mountain.

Their frantic escape made them look like soldiers who had lost a battle.

After they left, everything was silent again.

Ye Fan followed the mountain road and continued walking.

He finally reached a cave.

With the help of the moonlight, Ye Fan could see the faint greenish glow within the cave.

That was the jadeite reflecting the moonlight.

"I can already feel an intense energy just by standing at the entrance of the cave. The source of the jade must be here."

Ye Fan walked in with great anticipation.

He turned on his phone's torch function and realized that the cave was pretty clean and it looked like someone had tidied up this place.

"It looks like that Wen Liang had also discovered that the jade from this cave was different from ordinary jade, so he also wanted to use the jade here to help him with his cultivation process. But too bad, he ran into me," said Ye Fan quietly as he shook his head.

That Wen Liang seemed to have carry an inner energy in his movements.

He was certainly a martial artist.

Creating energy within the body was creating inner energy.

And creating inner energy was a sign of becoming a real martial artist.

It was only normal for ordinary folk to replace it difficult to fight a true martial artist at this level.

Having a lot of people wasn't going to help either.

That was why Liang Hao-Nan couldn't do anything about Wen Liang for so long and kept suffering losses.

Zhou Bo-Tong claimed to be a martial arts master, but he was just a joke to Ye Fan.

Ye Fan figured that this so-called martial arts master probably couldn't even win Zheng He.

The martial arts scene was mostly just for performance value and there were no real battles, so everything was just for show. People didn't train in a particular discipline anymore, so it was definitely impossible for any of them to fight someone who actually had inner energy.

When Ye Fan saw the jadeite that Wen Liang had sliced cleanly with his hands, he could estimate how powerful Wen Liang really was.

That was also why Ye Fan could conclude that Wen Liang would be able to kill Zhou Bo-Tong within three moves.

Woong...

His phone started ringing.

It was Han.

Ye Fan had told him about what he was doing that night.

After all, Ye Fan was the Dragon Master and his safety was the most important!

"Young Master, have you finished off your opponent?" came Han's worried voice.

Ye Fan nodded. "Yup. He's just a martial artist with inner energy, I've killed him off."

"What about the jade cave? Have you found it? How much is in there? Can it help you with a breakthrough?" asked Han again.

Ye Fan checked the cave and was a little disappointed.

"It doesn't look promising. I just took a look, the jade only goes on for a few meters. Half of it has already been absorbed by that Wen Liang. The remaining bit definitely not enough for me. Looks like I still have to count on the Feast of the Sea and Sky coming up," said Ye Fan as he shook his head. There was a tinge of disappointment in his gaze.

He was hoping to replace a huge jade mine, but he had his hopes too high.

"Alright now, let's not talk about this anymore. Even a fly is meat, no matter how small it is. I'll quietly cultivate here for a few days and take whatever energy I can get from the jade." Ye Fan wanted to hang up

soon.

Han didn't say anything and just reminded him to call Qiu Mu-Cheng about it so that she wouldn't worry.

Ye Fan was stunned for a moment before shaking his head and letting out a long sigh.

"She probably doesn't want to hear my voice now. Perhaps it's better that I don't disturb her for the time being."

Qiu Mu-Cheng's words came to mind and Ye Fan laughed self-deprecatingly. Then he decided not to think about it anymore.

He turned around, leaned against the jadeite rocks and sat down cross-legged on the ground.

He had no idea that the lights in a bungalow in the east suburbs were on the entire night.
