The chivalrous spirit is fickle

Shi Gu rolled his eyes and immediately poured the wine in the cup aside. The wine fell to the ground, quickly causing bubbles to form, staining the peach blossoms on the ground black.

The wine was actually highly poisonous.

But Shi Gu acted as if he didn't see it and replied with a smile.

"Don't worry, I'm not such a petty person."

Hearing this, Su Xun rolled his eyes and responded rudely.

"Bullshit, you are the most petty and vindictive person I have ever met in my life."

"But you and I are equals, so you are Wanye's elder, so can't you give way to him?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Gu leaned forward and asked seriously.

"Do you really want me to let him?"

Su Xun's eyes twitched, as if he remembered something. He immediately shook his head like a rattle and waved his hands.

"Never mind, whatever you like."

As he spoke, Su Xun picked up the wine jug, added a cup of poisoned wine to Shi Gu, and spoke slowly.

"I actually don't like Wanye this kid very much."

"He was born in a poor family, but he never learned what patience is. He is arrogant and domineering, and he doesn't know his place, so he has offended many people."

"I don't like his personality, and his talent isn't high enough to cover up my dislike, so he wants to prove himself even more, and becomes more and more arrogant, causing trouble for me everywhere."

Shi Gu poured out the cup of poisoned wine again and said lightly.

"Since you don't like him, why do you stop me from going in?"

Su Xun narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice.

"Because I am his master, even if I don't like him, he still calls me master."

"So when he wants a fair win, I can't let anything go wrong with the process."

"I know your methods. If you are good at chess, you might be able to make him lose this chess match."

"You can't go in. At least I won't let you go until the winner is decided."

Upon hearing this, Shi Gu sighed helplessly and shook his head.

"It seems that you think Wanye can win as long as I don't interfere?"

Su Xun nodded slightly, and poured another glass of poisoned wine for Shi Gu without giving up, and said with a smile.

"My disciple may not be good at other things, but he will never lose to others when it comes to playing chess."

"Besides, your apprentice seems to have only learned chess for a short time, so he won't be able to win."

Shi Gu looked at Su Xun with a half-smile and said mockingly.

"He's going to lose, and he's going to lose badly."

As he said this, Shi Gu was about to pour out the cup of poisoned wine again, but Su Xun suddenly made a move and pressed down Shi Gu's hand. Shi Gu looked up, but saw that Su Xun had a calm expression and spoke to him lightly.

"You have to drink this glass of wine."

Shi Gu raised his eyebrows slightly, seeming a little surprised.

"You want me to die?"

Su Xun neither nodded nor shook his head, but asked a strange question.

"Tell me, is Zhu Tian Jie Sha dead or not? If he is dead, where is his killing sword?"

Shi Gu did not answer Su Xun's question, but spoke lightly.

"Do you think you can kill me?"

Su Xun smiled when he heard this and said in a low voice.

"You are a first-rate runner. Even I can't catch you. But can you really escape here and now?"

"To put it bluntly, if it were a fair duel in the ring, you probably wouldn't be a match for my stupid apprentice."

As he was speaking, several figures appeared and surrounded Shi Gu. Shi Gu squinted and saw that these people were all at the peak of the eighth level of martial arts, and there were even three at the ninth level of martial arts.

With such a luxurious lineup, it is more than enough to kill an eighth-grade peak Shi Gu.

Shi Gu lowered his head slightly, looked at the cup of poisoned wine, his eyes were slightly dazed, and sighed.

"I thought we were friends."

Su Xun also sighed and said in a low voice.

"I do like your personality and I like being your friend, but I am still the leader of Xuanming Division and there are things I have to do."

"As long as you answer my questions honestly, I can let you go."

"From now on, you can scold me or hate me, it's up to you. I feel ashamed of you."

Shi Gu suddenly smiled when he heard this. He picked up the cup of poisoned wine and spoke slowly.

"Do you really think Wanye can win?"

Su Xun nodded without any hesitation and said.

"Of course, I know my apprentice best."

"As long as you don't play any dirty tricks, he won't lose."

Shi Gu raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Then do you dare to make a bet with me?"

Su Xun still did not hesitate, shook his head and said.

"Gambling is a bad habit. Nine times out of ten, you lose. That's why I never gamble."

"You have no other choice today, Shi Gu."

Shi Gu was stunned when he heard this, then he burst into laughter. He picked up the cup of poisoned wine, drank it all, then stood up, ignored the people who surrounded him, turned around and left, saying lightly.

"The Heavenly Tribulation Killer is still alive, so killing is naturally also in the hands of the Heavenly Tribulation Killer."

"So I want you to tell the other five major sects that if you don't want to die and be exterminated, just be good children."

Su Xun was startled when he heard this, he turned his head to look at Shi Gu's back with a slightly strange expression. He took out a detoxification pill and was about to catch up with Shi Gu.

At this moment, a man hurriedly ran out from the chess path, and after a few flashes, appeared beside Su Xun.

The man's face was pale, with a look of shock and astonishment. He stopped Su Xun and said in a hoarse voice.

"metropolitan……"

"Wan Ye...lost."

Chapter 58: No Regrets in Making a Move (Part 3)

Although there were a lot of people playing chess, it was not too noisy. Many people obviously did not understand chess, but they still came to join in the fun.

Zheng Jia was just a person who came to join in the fun. His strength was average and his sect was very small. He knew that he had no hope of winning this martial arts conference, so he just came to join in the fun.

Fortunately, Zheng Jia has always had good luck. Although he knows nothing about chess, he has occupied the best position.

But unfortunately, the only thing he could understand on the chessboard was the color of the chess pieces.

But there was a bit of luck in the misfortune, because the old man next to him obviously knew chess, so he didn't look at the chess pieces, but only looked at the white-haired old man, which made the white-haired old man feel scared, thinking that he had met a pervert with heavy taste.

On the chessboard, Shen Yue placed each piece very slowly, her brows slightly furrowed, as if she was forced into a dilemma. On the other side, Wan Ye sat upright, placing each piece very quickly, as if he didn't need to think at all.

Zheng Jia looked at it for a long time and smacked his lips. He thought that the girl playing chess was much more interesting than the chessboard, but he didn't dare to look at it for too long.

He is not a fool. Although people in the martial arts world look down on Shi Gu and dare to laugh at him unscrupulously, it is because Shi Gu does not care about these things.

However, absolutely no one wants to offend Shi Gu. Not to mention that man's strength, just the fact that he is extremely vengeful. If they really offend him, they will probably never have peace.

Unable to understand the chess game and not daring to look at the beauty for too long, Zheng Jia looked at the white-haired old man next to him with a bored face, trying to see a flower in the wrinkles of the white-haired old man. He hesitated for a moment, then asked softly.

"Old man, can you tell me about this game of chess?"

The white-haired old man stroked his beard lightly, frowned, looked thoughtful, and sighed.

"I am considered a chess player of some repute, but I am finding this game increasingly difficult to understand."

"Master Wanye is good at both offense and defense, so he should have won a great victory. However, every time this little girl made a move, she was extremely strange, neither attacking nor defending."

"But what's even more strange is that Master Wanye seemed to be afraid of something and actually let go of several flaws for nothing."

"I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out."

Upon hearing this, before Zheng Jia could react, the crowd behind him was in an uproar.

Everyone knows Wan Ye's reputation, but now he is in a stalemate with a little girl, and this little girl was defeated by him yesterday.

Could a person's chess skills really increase to such an extent overnight?

Thinking of this, people's expressions became slightly strange, and they turned their gazes to Shen Yue, thinking secretly in their hearts.

Perhaps, this little girl is the real genius.

Snapped!

Shen Yue placed the chess piece lightly, making a crisp sound. Peach blossoms flew by, stuck to her fingers, and fell down with the chess piece.

Wan Ye picked up the chess piece without hesitation, and when he was about to place it, he suddenly looked at the chessboard for a long time without making a move.

The sound of the wind suddenly stopped. Wanye looked at the chess pieces on the board, his breathing gradually becoming heavier. He seemed to see a giant dragon that was about to take off, being cut into pieces and shattered.

He quickly deduced in his mind, but from the very beginning, Shen Yue did not make moves according to his deduction, did not step into the trap, did not get into trouble, and was not torn open.

He thought that blindly defending would only put him in a passive position.

But now he suddenly realized that he was the one who stepped into the trap and he was also the one who had the hole torn open.

The opponent had been attacking all along, but he just didn't see it.

Wanye's breathing became rapid, but he quickly calmed down. He held the chess piece in his hand and refused to make a move for a long time.

After a long time, Wan Ye let out a long breath and slowly made his move, but Shen Yue followed suit without hesitation or pause.

It's Wanye's turn to make his move again.

Wanye's face turned pale and he picked up another chess piece. As if time had stopped, he stared at the chessboard in silence.

He did not continue to make moves, nor did he throw in the towel and admit defeat. He just stared blankly at the chessboard.

Wanye knew since he was a child that his master didn't like him.

The master didn't like his temper, rarely stayed alone with him, and rarely said anything to him. Since he was very young, Wanye wanted to please his master.

He wanted to be valued by his master and to be recognized, but the harder he tried, the further he got from his master.

Until that day, the eight-year-old Wan Ye played a game of chess with his master. Su Xun's chess skills were very poor, and he lost to the eight-year-old Wan Ye without any suspense.

That was the first time Wanye saw Su Xun’s smiling face. It was also the first time Su Xun reached out and touched his head like an elder, praising him for his good performance.

Perhaps, it was from that time that Wan Ye began to value chess more than anything else.

Wanye didn't know why he remembered something from such a long time ago. He held the chess piece in his hand, looking struggling. After hesitating for a long time, he placed the chess piece on the board, sweating profusely.

He grabbed a handful of chess pieces and rubbed them in his hands, his eyes bloodshot as he stared at the chessboard.

The crowd fell into a dead silence, staring at the scene in front of them in disbelief. Wan Ye's moves became slower and slower, taking longer and longer, and he was sweating profusely and breathing rapidly, but Shen Yue's moves became faster and faster, and her frown relaxed.

At this moment, even someone who doesn't understand chess should be able to tell who has the upper hand.

Crash.

Suddenly, the chess pieces in Wanye's hand slipped and fell onto the chessboard, completely disrupting the game.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this, but they felt a little contempt in their hearts. Could it be that Wan Ye had to resort to such despicable means just to avoid losing?

However, just when everyone was thinking this, Wan Ye closed his eyes with a painful look and bowed deeply to Shen Yue.

He rested his forehead against the soil, sniffed the moisture of the soil, and spoke in a trembling voice.

"I lost because I was not as skilled as the other person."

Shen Yue was startled when she saw this, and tilted her head slightly, feeling a little at a loss. She just came here to play chess, not to kowtow to anyone. Would this person not blackmail her?

After bowing, Wan Ye took out all the strange stone orders on his body, placed them on the chessboard, and pushed them towards Shen Yue. He lowered his head, respectful like a little apprentice.
