"You should try to snatch the Golden Divine Tree first. If you can't even get that, how do you think you'll manage to snatch the Dragon Pattern Compass?"
Ye Yunchen's lengthy speech was nothing more than a goad.
His sole objective was to provoke Chen Fan into a full-blown attack.
Only then could Ye Yunchen's aims be immediately achieved!
But!
How could Chen Fan possibly not see through Ye Yunchen's petty machinations?
So, upon hearing Ye Yunchen's words, Chen Fan didn't fall for his trap at all. Instead, he picked out a question that Ye Yunchen most wanted to avoid and asked him.
"Then let me ask you an old question, who is the Wanderer? Your master must be the Wanderer, right?"
Before going to Sakura Country, Chen Fan already knew that Ye Yunchen particularly avoided any mention of the Wanderer.
Moreover, whenever his master and the word Wanderer were put together, Ye Yunchen's emotions would fluctuate significantly.
And at this moment, as Chen Fan spoke, Ye Yunchen's emotions indeed changed!
"Whoever it is, it's not my master!"
Ye Yunchen, upon hearing Chen Fan's words, immediately retorted angrily and impatiently.
And after hearing Ye Yunchen's curt reply, Chen Fan, seeing his demeanor, knew that this fellow had already lost his composure due to Chen Fan's previous sentence, fallen into Chen Fan's rhythm, and forgotten to lead Chen Fan into his own trap!
Therefore, after Ye Yunchen finished speaking, Chen Fan continued to press him.
"Then is your master really not the Wanderer?"
To be asked the same question twice, Ye Yunchen was almost furious!
Because Chen Fan's second asking of the question was a reminder!
The reason for saying this was that when Chen Fan first asked Ye Yunchen, he was toying with him.
But when Chen Fan spoke for the second time, it was to make Ye Yunchen realize that Chen Fan was toying with him!
This meant that Chen Fan had first toyed with Ye Yunchen, and then informed Ye Yunchen that he had just been toyed with!
This was an immense humiliation for Ye Yunchen!
However, at this moment, Ye Yunchen still wanted Chen Fan to make the first move while being in the wrong. Thus, he could only suppress his anger, glare fiercely at Chen Fan, and coldly steer the conversation back, saying to Chen Fan.
"Chen Tianjiao, stop with your useless talk. Why don't you guess yourself, or perhaps, after you snatch the Golden Divine Tree, you'll anger him and ask him yourself."
"Why should I do that?" Upon hearing Ye Yunchen's deliberate words, Chen Fan simply cast a cold glance at him and replied.
And facing Chen Fan's inquiry, Ye Yunchen was already beginning to lose his patience.
"Because my master does indeed possess a fragment of the Dragon Pattern Compass." However, in order to make Chen Fan attack first, Ye Yunchen still voluntarily answered after hearing Chen Fan's words.
"As far as I know, the Wanderer has a fragment of the Dragon Pattern Compass, and your master also has one. Are they really not the same person?" Upon hearing Ye Yunchen's words, Chen Fan immediately asked decisively.
Seeing that Chen Fan was just going in circles with him and showed no intention of attacking, Ye Yunchen finally couldn't hold back.
He wanted Chen Fan to attack first, so that he could both eliminate Chen Fan and preserve his reputation.
But now, due to Chen Fan's continuous provocation, Ye Yunchen no longer cared about his reputation.
He now only wanted to kill Chen Fan!
"Enough nonsense! You're dead!" Thus, this time Ye Yunchen did not answer Chen Fan directly. Instead, after scanning the surrounding crowd, he gave an order!
As soon as Ye Yunchen gave the order, his more than twenty subordinates, disguised among the onlookers, revealed themselves and surrounded Chen Fan!
"Haha!" Upon seeing this scene, Chen Fan burst into hearty laughter!
Originally, Ye Yunchen had felt that victory was within his grasp.
But now, upon hearing Chen Fan's hearty laughter, he immediately frowned and felt a pang of unease.
"Chen Tianjiao, you're facing death, what are you laughing about?"
At this moment, facing Ye Yunchen's inquiry, Chen Fan, with a smile on his face, said, "Ye Yunchen, you're quite something, actually planning to attack like this. Since you can be so foolish, why can't I laugh?"
Upon hearing Chen Fan's words, Ye Yunchen felt that Chen Fan was undoubtedly mocking him!
Therefore, as soon as Chen Fan finished speaking, Ye Yunchen, with a somber expression and a chilling tone, said to Chen Fan, "Stop your bravado. My men are all quasi-masters in strength. Together, you will surely die!"
"Chen Tianjiao, today is the day you meet your doom!"
Although furious, Ye Yunchen was also full of confidence at this moment. Thus, his voice grew louder and louder, the last sentence almost a roar!
Upon hearing Ye Yunchen's words, Chen Fan also put away his calm expression.
He stared coldly at Ye Yunchen, drew the Heavenly Cong Yun Sword he held, pointed it at Ye Yunchen's nose from afar, and provocatively said, "Ye Yunchen, listen well. Today, I will make you die a more miserable death than Raman."
Chen Fan's words immediately infuriated Ye Yunchen, causing him to clench his fists and tremble with rage!
Although Ye Yunchen felt he had the upper hand at this moment,
he was still extremely angry.
This was because Chen Fan had mentioned Raman – Ye Yunchen's fellow disciple and friend!
Thinking of the tragically deceased Raman, Ye Yunchen gnashed his teeth in hatred for Chen Fan!
"Heh heh! Let's wait and see who dies more miserably!" Thus, Ye Yunchen tightly clenched his fists and spoke coldly to Chen Fan.
Only, his voice was trembling at this moment – a result of extreme anger!
After saying this, Ye Yunchen drew his weapon, gave orders to his subordinates, and charged at Chen Fan!
"Those who kill the Chen clan shall be rewarded!"
With that, he had already reached Chen Fan!
The battle was imminent!
...
A few minutes later, the entrance of the Tianfu Yaju, which had been a scene of commotion, was now eerily quiet.
Even the increasingly large crowd of onlookers, bewildered by the bizarre scene, dared not speak loudly, only whispering amongst themselves.
Of course, given the fight that had broken out, local police had naturally been alerted.
But no one intervened!
