Chapter 1615
Even though Qiu Mucheng''s voice wasn''t loud, the authority of her words stunned the crowd, including her parents.
Even Qiu Mucheng''s best friend, Su Qian, stared at her with widened eyes.
All this while, Su Qian assumed that Qiu Mucheng stayed by Ye Fan''s side not because of her feelings for him but out of habit
instead.
She always thought Qiu Mucheng didn''t abandon Ye Fan due to the tonic bond they shared.
However, she no longer thought that way because she now knew that Qiu Mucheng had truly fallen in love with Ye Fan.
In fact, the woman was so deeply in love with him that there was no way she could pull herself out.
My bounty is as boundless as the sea, my love as deep; the more | give to thee, the more | have, for both are infinite.
At that very moment, the quote about eternal love kept shing in Su Qian''s head.
Indeed, her words do carry the meaning of “For richer or poorer, till death do us part. ”
Consequently, Su Qian felt that she should be happy for her friend.
At the very least, Qiu Mucheng had found a man whom she was willing to sacrifice herself for.
From the perspective of a woman, this was bliss and something to be envious about.
After all, only love could bring meaning to one''s lives.
Unfortunately, Qiu Mucheng''s parents didn''t share Su Qian''s sentiments.
“You''ve gone mad, you foolish girl. Ye Fan doesn''t care about you anymore, and yet, you''re willing to die for him? Are you trying
to kill us both? Despite how shrewd your father and | are, how did we end up having a blunderous daughter like you? | don''t care
what you want. You are definitely leaving with us today because we are the ones who gave you your life. You have no right to
give it up for his sake.”
Just like a raving madwoman, Han Li exploded at Qiu Mucheng as she tried to forcibly make her daughter leave.
Nevertheless, Qiu Mucheng had steeled her resolve and naturally ignored Han Li''s rants.
After shoving Han Li aside, she walked bravely toward the five Grandmasters.
With an indifferent expression, she dered coldly, “I, Qiu Mucheng, am Ye Fan of Jiangdong''s wife. As my husband isn''t in
Jiangdong today, | shall deal with Jiangdong''s affairs in his stead. Gentlemen, whatever grouses you may have, you can inform
me about them and | will personally pass Ye Fan the message when he returns.”
She continued, “However, before you do that, let me first warn you. Ye Fan has always been steadfast in his principles
throughout his life. Consequently, the rumors about him working with the enemy to betray the country are just baseless
usations. As a result, | hope that you gentlemen do not sully my husband''s reputation indiscriminately!”
Qiu Mucheng didn''t mince her words at all, as she was unfazed by the domineering aura of the five Grandmasters.
In response, the look Yan Buping and the other Grandmasters gave Qiu Mucheng couldn''t help but change slightly.
“Given that Ye Fan is a coward to not show his face, we didn''t expect him to have such a courageous wife. In fact, you are in no
way inferior to him at all. It''s just a shame that you have been wasted on a scum like him. If you were still single, | would be d
to matchmake you with my grandson. Unfortunately, you have been sullied by Ye Fan and missed the opportunity.”
Shaking his head as he spoke, Ke Zhe gave Qiu Mucheng a sympathetic look.
“Nevertheless, it''s pointless to defend him despite your loyalty to him. After all, it''s an irrefutable fact that he has betrayed his
country. If you are looking to plead mercy for him, | would advise you to tell him toe out of hiding and turn himself in.
Perhaps, the War God Castle of China would spare his life and look past his impulsiveness.”
Ke Zhe spoke with a condescending tone as if he was an imperialmissioner questioning a criminal.
“Haha... Hahaha...”
All of a sudden, Qiu Mucheng burst intoughter.
In fact, one could hear the contempt and mockery in her tone.
“Hmm? What are youughing at?” Yan Bupingwas upset by her reaction.
As for the other Grandmasters, they too furrowed their brows.
Nheless, Qiu Mucheng continuedughing before she retorted, “What do you mean by it''s a fact? | would like to know which
carries more weight in China,yourwords or thew? Since the matter has yet to be investigated or gone on trial, how can you
conclude that Ye Fan is a traitor? And yet, you have the cheek to insist that it''s an irrefutable fact?
Gentlemen, that''s really brazen of you! Even I, the governor of Jiangdong, do not have the gall to hurl such baseless
usation.”
Qiu Mucheng''s words were grave, as she had used them of disrespecting thew.
Any ordinary citizen would have flown into a rage after hearing what she said. However, Yan Buping and the others simply shook
their heads and smiled.
“Lady, | wonder if you''re ignorant or just in naive. Perhaps, you have never truly understood the world he lived in despite being
his wife. In his world, there may be rules and thresholds, but it''s raw power that overwhelms them all. In China, the one who
holds the most power is none other than the War God Castle. Thus, whatever they decide will be an undeniable fact that no
one can challenge or doubt,” Van Buping exined calmly as if he was a teacher lecturing a student on the rules of the martial
arts world.
Despite his attempt to help her understand, Qiu Mucheng was unlikely to grasp the meaning behind his words, as the martial arts
world was an unfamiliar territory for an ordinary citizen like her. After all, it was human nature to second guess something that felt
foreign.
“Forget it. A weakdy like you knows nothing about the martial arts world. Nevertheless, since Ye Fan isn''t showing up, you will
have toe with us to Mount Van. As long as he doesn''t turn himself in at Mount Van, you will never be able to return to
Jiangdong.
“Didn''t you say that Ye Fan is a loyal
person? In that case, | want ta fi
out just h w deyorsdlthisman who
atin he title of the Unrivalled
Supreme at such a young age is.”

Van Buping stood by thekeside with his hands behind his back and his robe fluttering in the wind.
Despite the simplicity of his speech, it was filled with authority, as if every single word would determine if one lives or dies.
When he finished, Van Buping waved his hands and ordered the Grandmasters he brought with him, “Seize her!”

Shocked, the men backed off at once.
The next moment, a mockingugh filled the air.

Ascathing admonishment was unleashed upon Van Buping and the rest of the Grandmasters.
Meanwhile, the crowd by theke began to gossip and gesticte in indignance over Qiu Mucheng''s
treatment.
“That''s true.”

“It''s obvious this bunch of old fogies didn''t dare to face Mr. Chu so they chose to bully a girl instead.”
“Despite their fearsome looks, they are nothing but cowards underneath, huh?”
