Chapter 1729
The members of Chu Sect vividly recalled how the intruder who stood before them had nearly stomped Chu Qitian to death.
It was rumored that the injury was so grievous that he was still recuperating despite it being already a month. Even his survival
was not yet certain.
The defenders who had gathered were hoping that they would have been able to force Ye Fan to retreat at the threat of Tang
Yun''s involvement alone.
If they could help it, they would not wish to have to engage inbat against Ye Fan.
Ye Fan did not seem fazed by the resistance he was met with.
With an almighty stomp, a shockwave sent the dozen who stood closest to him flying backward.
“Stand in my way again and you shall die a painful death!” Ye Fan bellowed.
The fury in his voice was so immense that the surrounding rocks rumbled ominously from the resonance of the force.
From that mere demonstration of power, the terrified defenders concurred that Ye Fan''s position atop the Sky Ranking alongside
Tang Yun was well deserved.
Even his voicemanded such presence.
In an instant, the defenders that were dispatched to halt his ascension felt a stab of intense fear.
Despite being a couple of dozen out of thousands of followers of the most powerful house in the world surrounding a single
measly-armed man, the defenders found themselves hesitant to step forth.
Every single one of them took an uncertain step backward, their faces wary and frightened.
Any observer who stood beneath Mount Chumen at that moment would have had their eyes sped upon a strange scene.
An intimidating group of armed warriors being forced backward by the advance of a solitary young man.
It looks more like Ye Fan single-handedly surrounding Chu Sect instead of it being the other way around!
“What are you all standing around for?” a voice yelled. “Imbeciles! Look around, you have him
heavily outnumbered! If that''s not enough, Tang Yun and Chu Yuan have your back! The leader of the Sky Ranking and a warrior
of the god realm to boot. What the hell are you afraid of? Go!”
Chu Shen had encountered the confrontation upon his descent down the mountain. After regaining hisposure after his initial
surprise at Ye Fan''s reappearance atop Mount Chumen, he yelled in consternation at the cowardice of his men.
“Go, you fools!” he roared, incensed by the men''s hesitation. “I will inform Ms. Tang at once and backup will be along shortly!”
Without another word, Chu Shen turned around and ran back up the steps.
As Chu Yuan had shut himself away in solitary training, the other person who came to Chu Shen''s mind was Tang Yun, the
leader of Chu Sect.
“He''s right, you know.”
“Why should we be afraid of him?”
“We are fighting for Chu Sect! Ms. Tang and Chu Yuan have our backs.”
“Let''s charge at him together!” “Block his path!”
Earlier, fear had worked its way into the crowd. Naturally, courage had the potential to do the same.
After Chu Shen''s rallying cry, the braver ones who were most affected stood out and instigated the rest.
With their shouts of encouragement at each other, the rest once again fell into the rhythm of battle.
Soon, the hundreds of fighters that had gathered to defend Mount Chumen against the invaderfound the fear that had inhibited
their movements a moment ago reced by an insatiable thirst for the intruder''s blood.
With a battle cry, they dashed toward Ye Fan with their weapons raised who in an instant found himself surrounded.
Despite being faced with a dense wall of well-trained warriors who were shouting for his blood, he felt no fear.
Throughout the entire time, he did not utter a word.
Only the glint of his sword and his brimming malice disyed any signs of his emotions.
With another swipe of the sword, the earth, scarcely dried from Ye Fan''sst visit, was once again stained by a stter of
crimson.
The trickle of blood that flowed down Mount Chumen soon turned into a river.
The wails of pain and nging of weaponry echoed horribly in the mountains.
Michael and Bill, who stood at the foot of Mount Chumen as they awaited reinforcements, felt their terror rise again at the sight
and sounds that greeted them.
“It... it looks like the gates of hell, Dad,” Michael stammered as he stood transfixed with horror.
Mount Chumen? More like gates of hell! The path is littered with bodies!
Meanwhile, the horrors atop Mount Chumen were not yet known an ocean away in Jiangdong.
Within the Ye residence in Jingzhou, Gaius and the rest had not been able toe to an agreement upon a n to take on Chu
Sect after many days of discussion.
“Without the assistance of Moon
God, we might not be able to survive
the attempt,” Gaius concluded
gloomily. “We''ve Seon t @h@vn
Heari@Xin: capable of
ing all of us on his own.
Furthermore, he will have the
assistance of Tang Yun, the current
head of Chu Sect, and all of the Chu
elders. If you factor in his disciples,
he''s got an entire army. It''s too vast
of a gap between our forces and his.”

Before, many were under the impression that Chu Sect''s fame was mostly exaggerated.
It was only after their altercation with Chu Sect that Gaius and the rest learned that the reputation of Chu Sect as the most
powerful force in the world of martial arts was well earned.
Even a global alliance would not be able to withstand the full force of an assault from Chu Sect. What hope do the Dragon
yers from Dragon God Hall have?
“What do we do? Shall we advise Dragon Master against it?” Gaius continued, looking thoroughly dejected. “He could bide time
to recuperate or perhaps undergo training! How about attempting another siege of Chu Sect once Dragon Master attains god
realm? Wouldn''t that be safer?”
We''re lucky to have survived the previous attempt. There''s no need to throw our lives away haphazardly!Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Owen disagreed. “Knowing Dragon
Master, he would probably be on his
way there as we speak. Given his
impatience, | don''t think you would be
able to convince ee
thay ayneelobetire e decides to
launch another attack. Are you
suggesting that he goes into hiding
for another ten years? The young
lady had her eyes gouged out by the
Chu family, for God''s sake! Any man
whose beloved friend had gone
through such an ordeal would do the
same to avenge her! Would you be
able to keep calm in their shoes,
Gaius?” Please read the original

Even I, who am more level-headed than Dragon Master, would not stand idly by and allow an innocent girl to be mutted in
such a brutal manner!
Gaius appeared incensed by Owen''s anger. “I would,” he answered stubbornly.
The others were dumbstruck by theirrade''s answer.
“How dare you call yourself a man, Gaius?”
Sparing onest disgusted nce at Gaius, Owen stood up and walked out.
“Let''s go and have a word with Dragon Master. If a war is inevitable, we could go to Japan and seek for Moon God''s help. With
ourbined forces, there is a better hope than before in making a dent on Mount Chumen.”
“Chu Sect has reigned long enough,” Owen continued grimly. “It''s time for a change.”
As if reaching an unspoken agreement, all four Dragon yers stood up and nodded at each other to reaffirm their mutual
decision.
Gaius, on the other hand, remained seated on the couch.
“Dragon Master may be young and
reckless,” he said quietly when the
others stared at him, aghast. “Are
you? Enough to follow him blindly
down the same dangerous path?
War, you say? People will die! How
many times do you tinkeonecseuls

the eons? Care to venture a guess as
to what happened to their rebellion?
I''ll give you a hint. Chu Sect remains
standing to this day, and you don''t
even know the names of the rebels,
do you? | know you don''t like hearing
it, but Chu Sect''s dominance has
stood the test of time. I''ve lived a
long life, boys. | do not mind dying for
a good cause. But you are still young!
Dragon Master is still young! He
doesn''t even have a son yet! Could
you bear for his legacy to be

his name to be forgotten?” Please
