Chapter 1296 Does It Fit?


    Chu Sect might be one of the most powerful and prestigious sects in the martial arts circle, but to Ye


    Fan, whose history with the sect had been tainted with pain and cruelty, the sect brought no appeal and


    only invoked disgust and abhorrence.


    "Ye Fan, you don''t have to worry about that. The martial arts circle doesn''t care about where youe


    from. It only cares for power and strength. With your gifting, you stand a chance at bing the Red


    Guardian even if you can''t be the sect leader. As a Red Guardian, you''re second only to the sect


    leader in Chu Sect and hold authority over the rest of the sect."


    The most powerful person in Chu Sect was the sect leader. His or her authority was not to be


    challenged by anyone else in the sect.


    The next most powerful person would be the Red Guardian.


    The Red Guardian answered only to the sect leader and heldmand over the rest of the sect.


    The deputy sect leader and the elders of the sect had to answer to his or her orders.


    In fact, one could even go as far as to say that the Red Guardian represented the sect leader''s will.


    If the sect leader was akin to the king, then the Red Guardian was akin to his regent.


    However, should the Red Guardian grow too ambitious and the sect leader fail to control his regent, the


    former might end up threatening and usurping thetter''s power.


    That had been why the position had remained vacant all these years.


    Since the founding of Chu Sect, there had only been one Red Guardian. She had been the childhood


    sweetheart and wife of the first sect leader.


    The person who could assume such a position had to share a unique rtionship with the sect leader.


    Yu Yun''s words to Ye Fan revealed her trust in and regard for the young man.


    But there was no way Ye Fan would ept her offer.


    He turned her down tly.


    "Yu Yun, you don''t have to say another word. I won''t join Chu Sect even if I were offered the position of


    sect leader. I''m used to my freedom. I don''t like being bound to any sect or organization," said Ye Fan


    almost harshly.


    "Fine, forget I ever said this then.” Yu Yun was a little displeased by the tone that Ye Fan had taken.


    What an ingrate! He didn''t know a good thing if it stared him in the face.


    Besides, he didn''t have to sound so rude.


    Did he have a grudge against Chu Sect? Had Chu Sect wronged him in the past or something?


    "You should leave. Let us never meet again. I don''t wish to have someone sneak up and attack me


    again."


    The gentle Yu Yun was gone and reced by a cold and proud woman.


    Having said her piece, Yu Yun turned and got ready to leave.


    "Hold on! I have a question for you!" yelled Ye Fan suddenly with a serious look on his face. He


    seemed to have an important question for Yu Yun.


    Yu Yun paused and turned around. Her brow furrowed slightly. "What else do you wish to say?"


    Ye Fan did not reply her immediately. His dark eyes stared unbl inking ly at her while his face betrayed


    no hint of emotion.


    Trepidation and nervousness rippled inside Yu Yun at the sight of the serious look on Ye Fan''s face.


    Had he figured out who she truly was?


    Ye Fan''s voice rang out once again as fear spiked inside Yu Yun.


    "Yu Yun, have you tried the gift that I bought you? Does it fit? Do you like it? I went through quite a few


    stores and looked at almost a thousand pieces before I found one that looked like the one you used to

    have," said Ye Fan cheekily as his eyes swept across Yu Yun''s chest.


    No one answered him.


    The world seemed to havee to aplete standstill.


    Utter silence descended upon thend.


    After a long moment, a furious voice rang out in the heavens.


    "Die, shameless scoundrel!"


    The humming of a sword resounded in the air as a de shed at Ye Fan.


    "What the hell! Did you have to get so worked up? I was just asking! You didn''t have to answer me if


    you didn''t have to. There''s no need to start a fight!"


    Ye Fan''s eyelids twitched violently. He had nearly wetted his pants upon sensing the wave of


    murderous rage rising behind him.


    He had not expected the situation to escte so unexpectedly. They had been having such a pleasant


    conversation earlier.


    He really couldn''t afford to make this woman mad!


    Ye Fanmented inwardly as he began running for his life.


    In his wake was Yu Yun, furious and mortified as she swung her sword and pursued Ye Fan.


    Yu Yun moved at lightning speed as she leaped into the sky and darted across the sky. Yet, after


    dashing a hundred meters, she grunted suddenly. A violent tremor coursed through her body before


    she spat a mouthful of blood.


    Droplets of crimson sprinkled across the azure sky and scented the breeze with blood.


    Bright red fell like a light drizzle before the wind blew them away.


    Like a solitary leaf caught in the wind, Yu Yun plungedndward.


    "Yu Yun!" gasped Ye Fan aloud.


    All thoughts of escape cast aside, Ye Fan whirled around and caught Yu Yun in his arms andnded on


    earth.


    "Yu Yun, are you alright? Wake up! Don''t scare me!” shouted Ye Fan anxiously.


    The young woman in his arms looked pale and bloodless. Her lovely face looked the color of a fragile


    sheet of paper.


    Flecks of red stained her dark dress.


    Her breathing was uneven and weak.


    The sight of Yu Yun terrified Ye Fan.


    He checked her vitals instantly.


    A somber look darkened his face the next moment.


    Yu Yun had not escaped unscathed from the attack that he had inflicted on her in the cave.


    In fact, he had sessfully wounded her seriously.


    Ye Fan had pulled his punches then because he had only wanted Yu Yun injured and not dead or


    ruined.


    If Yu Yun had remained in the cave and tried to heal herself, she would have recovered within days.

    But the silly woman had been stubborn and risked her life to hunt down Ye Fan. She had ignored her


    injury and pursued him relentlessly for an entire day.


    The hunt had exhausted Ye Fan utterly even though he had not been injured at all. Yu Yun must have


    had it worse.


    However, despite her injuries, she had almost killed Ye Fan. That showed how powerful this young


    woman truly was.


    She had reached the end of her limits.


    Physical exhaustion and her injuries had caused her to pass out in Ye Fan''s arms.


    "Another one who doesn''t know when to give it a rest!" sighed Ye Fan loudly as he shook his head.


    Without a moment''s dy, he tightened his arms around the young woman, leaped into the skies and


    left in a haste.
