2291: Chapter 2281: Chess Game 2291: Chapter 2281: Chess Game Conversely, stunned by Long Yan’s punch, the two women, Lingxi, only watched Long Yan with a peculiar expression.

They had seen many brilliant geniuses, but they had never encountered someone like Long Yan who had grown so much stronger in such a short time.

“Junior Sister Lingxi!”

At this point, Feng Ci realized he was the only one left and hurriedly caught up with the others.

However, due to the tremendous force of Long Yan’s punch, Feng Ci hadn’t noticed it, and even if he had, he wouldn’t have associated it with Long Yan.

“Junior Sister Lingxi, why did you leave first?

I’ve just caught up.”

Seeing Feng Ci catching up, Lingxi pretended not to have seen him.

However, now Feng Ci was daydreaming and shamelessly grinned at Lingxi.

Long Yan felt a powerful momentum, but what surprised him was that this momentum did not carry any killing intent.

It didn’t seem like it came from someone guarding a critical position but rather from a reclusive expert.

Lingxi and Luo Pin both gently hummed, the tenderness on their faces making Feng Ci extremely jealous.

Why should the man before them be favored by two unparalleled beauties?

Feng Ci felt quite bitter on the inside, but he merely gave Long Yan a wicked glance without saying anything more.

As everyone ventured deeper, the Space gradually opened up, and they finally arrived at a small cliff.

According to Long Yan’s perception, that formidable aura was indeed opposite the small cliff.

Now, this posed a dilemma for Long Yan; with his strength, he could easily traverse this cliff, but what about the two women?

Just as Long Yan was indecisive, a hoarse voice came from the other side.

“It seems you are the first ones to reach this spot.”

The old voice, devoid of any emotion and robotic, accompanied the slow dispersal of the fog on the opposite side.

A General clad in golden armor was sitting steadily on a stone chair, and as the surrounding fog cleared, a gigantic chessboard beneath the cliff became visible to everyone.

How much effort must have gone into creating this?

Long Yan inwardly exclaimed at the Mausoleum owner’s extravagance and cupped his hands towards the elderly man across from him.

“We pass through here, please allow us to proceed, Senior.”

To Long Yan’s words, the elderly man did not show any reaction but merely glanced at Long Yan with dim eyes.

However, the moment he laid eyes on Long Yan, he froze, as if his stone-sealed heart had started to beat again, and a sparkle flashed in his eyes.

“You may pass, but you must first join this old man in a game.”

The hoarse voice echoed, and as a vast True Qi enveloped the surroundings, large chess pieces gently landed beside Long Yan, one black and one white, making it clear what the old man was referring to.

“I know how to play this thing.”

Feng Ci squeezed in front of Long Yan, cupped his hands in greeting, and said.

Naturally, he wanted to show off this skill in front of his goddess, whose presence made Feng Ci’s interruption draw a flash of blue in the old man’s eyes, which soon returned to serenity.

“That is also acceptable.”

Long Yan was just about to persuade Feng Ci with a few words, not yet knowing the specific rules of the game.

Although it seemed like Go, the elderly man had never clarified what exactly he was playing against the opponent.

However, seeing Feng Ci’s resolute attitude, Long Yan still held back his words.

“Hmph, not letting me show my face in front of Junior Sister Lingxi, how could that be possible?”

If Long Yan knew what Feng Ci was thinking, a bitter smile would probably emerge in his heart.

It was clearly a kind gesture, yet Feng Ci viewed it so negatively.

Next to Feng Ci was a White Piece; the White Piece moved first.

Feng Ci clearly had some skills, and in just a short period of time, he had already unfolded his position very promisingly.

Feng Ci’s face showed a proud expression, harboring the intention of showing off his skills.

He was just surrounding the elderly man without attacking, wanting to play a game with him.

But Long Yan behind him noticed something was amiss, yet considering Feng Ci’s expression, Long Yan didn’t speak up.

In fact, Feng Ci’s repeated provocations also ignited a bit of anger in Long Yan.

Such a person, letting him suffer a loss was far more effective than his own persuasion.

Of course, things were not as simple as Long Yan thought.

As time passed, a look of surprise gradually appeared on Feng Ci’s face.

Just now, he wanted to use a stunning killing move to defeat the elderly man, but found that the position he wanted to occupy had already been taken by the elderly man.

Go is a profound skill, and the player always has to think many steps ahead.

The position that Feng Ci wanted to grab had already been taken by the elderly man beforehand.

Because he was too complacent earlier, he hadn’t paid careful attention, but now it left Feng Ci somewhat at a loss.

Only until now did Feng Ci realize the prowess of the elderly man opposite him; the elderly man’s chess skill was not weaker than his own.

Not daring to be negligent, Feng Ci did his utmost, but because he had wasted many moves showing off earlier, trying to turn the tables now was nothing but a fool’s dream.

In the end, he was actually surrounded by black chess pieces and trapped big time, struggling as much as he could but unable to break free from the current predicament.

“What… how could this be.”

Feng Ci looked incredulously at the chess layout before him.

His situation was extremely difficult, the elderly man could sever his big dragon anytime if he wished.

Looking at the nearly filled chessboard, the elderly man slightly nodded.

“It should be enough now.”

With a sigh from the elderly man, a strong surge of True Qi enveloped Feng Ci’s body.

Although he wanted to struggle, the True Qi was too powerful, and after only a few faint struggles, he was controlled.

“Now is the real victory or defeat.”

With these inexplicable words, the elderly man stimulated True Qi, and Feng Ci fell into his own big dragon game.

The elderly man also leaped forward, landing on the chessboard, precisely at his big dragon’s position.

The black and white chess pieces on the chessboard gradually transformed into black and white puppets holding swords and knives.

“What happened just now was merely a prelude, here is where the real start is.”

Originally, Feng Ci’s situation was already disadvantaged, but now it’s truly dangerous.

Feng Ci felt he could move, but this was only limited to his upper body.

Right now, he was utterly confused about the situation.

“All forces advance.”

Following the sweep of the elderly man’s Big Hand, numerous White Puppets charged like a legion towards the black chess pieces in front of them.

Only then did Feng Ci realize that the thing he thought was Go was merely a deployment of troops, and the black chess pieces on the chessboard now were too few to even resist; this battle was a complete domination.

Just as the White Puppets rushed to him, Feng Ci found that they didn’t seem to intend to stop at all, and the Long Knife in their hands swung down towards him.

Feng Ci dared not hesitate and wanted to wield True Qi to counterattack, but he shockingly discovered that he couldn’t mobilize his True Qi at all.
