A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 2346 Chaos

Soon after, he arrived at the place filled with golden light. Indeed, he saw a figure sitting under the Universe Tree, one hand basking in the sun, seemingly lost in thought.

Murmuring words under his breath, his other hand held a wooden stick, doodling on the ground. It was as if he was constructing his own world.

In his world, all things underwent cycles of reincarnation, the five elements reversed their course, and an extraordinarily immense aura seeped out from his hands.

“Is this a formation?”

Oh my, with just a few casual strokes, a miniature world is created.

The talent this young person has for creating formations is simply unprecedented and unheard of.

“Who is he?”

“He is such a remarkable person, and I don't know him?”

Ye Qingtian was both shocked and delighted.

I'm astounded that among the young people in the world, such an extraordinary individual actually exists.

He was overjoyed that such a prodigy had not fallen into obscurity like the rest of the world. Instead, he had come under this Universe Tree, and in his own way, he tried to find a path of life for everyone in this world.

“What's his name?

“Which country is he from?

“The talent and sense of responsibility of this young man can indeed be put to great use!”

Ye Qingtian asked Gaius as if he had discovered a treasure.

He had a feeling that this person might one day become a leader in the martial arts world!

Ye Fan is very strong, but he is proud and solitary, a natural rebel who operates outside the system. He could be the strongest master in the world, but he is not suited to be the leader of the International Martial Arts Union, managing martial artists.

But this young man before me might just be able to take up my mantle if guided and nurtured properly!

Gaius said lightly, “He is one of you, from China. His name is Zhang Nanhai.”

“Zhang Nanhai?”

Ye Qingtian was slightly taken aback.

It seems like I've heard that name somewhere before.

Bah, there is no point in thinking about it anymore; it won't help.

“All that matters is that he is Chinese.”

“There are billions of people in the world.

“But in times of crisis, it is only us, the Chinese, who truly possess the spirit and responsibility to hold up this world,” Ye Qingtian proudly exclaimed.

Afterwards, Ye Qingtian stopped causing any disturbance. He found a place for himself and officially began his cultivation and seclusion.

Ye Fan and Zhang Nanhai were both striving hard. As the War God of China, he naturally wouldn't give up either.

Gaius watched this scene, feeling increasingly perplexed.

Anyway, he couldn't understand why these three people would make such fearless efforts.

“Could it be that you can actually prevent the apocalypse?”

Gaius looked up at the Universe Tree in front of him.

The Universe Tree had long since flourished, its trunk stretching for thousands of kilometers, towering into the clouds and piercing the sky.

Gaius had seen the end.

It had such a mystical life; Gaius always believed it was beyond the capacity of humans to contend with.

Ever since the Universe Tree appeared, Gaius had been staying beneath it.

One could say that Gaius had spent the most time with the Universe Tree.

He had watched with his own eyes as this Universe Tree grew to its current state bit by bit.

He even witnessed the human world destroying the Universe Tree with nuclear bombs.

But in the end, it only managed to shake a few leaves off the trees.

It is simply incredible!

The gap is just too big!

Gaius always felt that there were no opportunities left in the human world.

However, this world was never short of fools.

They would attempt the impossible, knowing fully well that it was unbeatable, but still went ahead and challenged it.

Wasn't Ye Fan just like this back in the day?

Faced with a formidable entity like the Chu Sect, Gaius wouldn't even dare to think about any slightest hint of provocation, yet Ye Fan went ahead to stand against them.

And after more than a decade of open and covert battles with the Chu Sect, he finally managed to bring them down.

This time, all Gaius could do was hope that these three individuals before him could create a miracle.

“Well, it's time to head back and sleep.”

Gaius took one last look, then continued his rendezvous under the Universe Tree.

From the moment Ye Qingtian and the others began their seclusion, a long period of tranquility commenced in this world.

People went to work, and children went to school as usual.

The sun continued to rise each day, and the birds never ceased their chirping.

Time appeared to fly by.

The vast majority of people in the world felt that each day to come was no different from the past.

Life went on as they worked, got married and had children, buying cars and houses.

Life was beautifully serene, and the world was at peace.

Everything seemed just as it once was.

But, how would these people know that this world was slowly heading towards its end bit by bit.

However, apart from those preoccupied with their livelihoods, there were still some who noticed something amiss.

This was simply because the number of hot-topic events in recent years had suddenly decreased.

The regions that were previously embroiled in years of unending warfare, where blood flowed incessantly and conflicts were constant, suddenly found peace. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

The space exploration industry continued to thrive, with an increasing number of people being sent to space stations and beyond.

One cargo spaceship after another was launched into the sky!

Moreover, what was even more eerie was that there had been no news from those who were sent into space.

What was even more puzzling to everyone was that the descendants of the nobles and wealthy elites around them gradually took long-term sick leaves and stopped coming to school.

Especially those prestigious schools that had many children from influential families.

It was as if they had planned it, starting to withdraw from school one after the other.

At first glance, the events seemed unrelated. However, a massive conspiracy and a terrifying truth inevitably emerged when delved into.

That elites were running away!

They were emigrating to outer space!

Why did they have to run?

The only possibility was that they could not live on Earth anymore.

Therefore, the conclusion of the impending apocalypse was already vividly outlined on paper.

After a round of deduction, a piece of information suddenly appeared on the Internet.

Every day, tens of thousands of people discussed this topic.

However, the authorities did not make any clarification, nor did they pay any attention.

People might as well consider it the baseless speculation of some bored individuals.

But one day, a tech worker involved in the immigration program had a crisis of conscience and exposed the Mars Migration Mission on the internet.

At that moment, the escape plan that the global elites had been concealing for a decade was finally revealed to the world!

The end was imminent!

The Universe Tree was about to annihilate the world.

All life on Earth would be completely eradicated.

The people in power had been aware of this all along, yet they kept the information hidden.

They had been secretly constructing spaceships, preparing to flee into outer space with their loved ones and children before the apocalypse arrived.

Billions of ordinary people around the world would be abandoned.

Those in power only cared about their own lives and deaths, disregarding the fate of the common people.

...

Various speculations quickly spread.

Initially, no one truly believed these claims.

However, as more and more evidence emerged, the media began to investigate and interview those involved.

In the end, public opinion erupted!

Suddenly, fear, anger, despair, and a multitude of emotions engulfed the entire world.

Wave after wave of protests swept across the globe.

The estates and villas of the powerful were torn apart by the enraged masses.

Many influential elites, who held authority, were burned at the stake by the wrathful citizens.

After all, they held the trust of the people and wielded the rights granted to them by the people.

However, as the apocalypse approached, they disregarded the lives of the people, only concerned with their own escape. They did not bother to seek a way for the vast majority of the population to survive.

They had underestimated the power of the people.

Numerous authorities were lynched by the enraged masses!

This wave of protest soon spread across the world.

As the apocalypse drew near, order, law, civilization, and even nature itself would collapse in an instant.

What good was civilization if humanity was on the verge of extinction?

Earth was on the brink of destruction, and everyone was destined to perish together. No one would be allowed to escape!

The world had descended into complete chaos.
