"My subordinate understands."
After a brief pause, Xu Xiao seemed to remember something and slowly spoke again: "Oh, right..."
"Send this message to the Crown Prince."
"As ordered."
Soon after, Xu Fengnian received news that Fahai was coming to Beiliang.
Upon receiving the news, a long-lost smile appeared on his face.
Since returning to Beiliang, everything has changed.
Old Huang went to Wudi City and never returned.
Only the last file containing the character "寅" remained.
"Sword Nine Yellow Five Styles were unleashed in succession, all eight styles were used, and Wang Xianzhi responded with one hand, dismantling a total of sixty-eight styles."
"Final Chapter, Sword Nine is unleashed. Wang Xianzhi strikes with his right hand."
"With a single sword strike, 'a steed and six thousand miles of yellow wine,' he tore apart Wang Xianzhi's right sleeve."
"Wang Xianzhi exerted all his strength, and Jian Jiuhuang fought for forty-nine moves with one hand until he died."
Even on his deathbed, Jian Jiu remained seated atop the city wall, facing north, his body remaining upright even in death, as if recounting his last wishes.
He knew the weight of those words.
I traveled six thousand miles to keep my promise, and stood my sword sheath atop the city wall for you!
Although the person is gone, those dozens of jars of rice wine still remain.
Xu Fengnian poured two cups of yellow wine. Throughout the day, he would sometimes laugh and curse, and sometimes remain silent.
"Old Huang, you stubborn old man, you were born to be a hard worker."
"The Green Ant Wine of Beiliang is famous throughout the world, but you just don't like to drink it. You prefer this yellow wine."
What's so good about this wine?
"You, if you're not as skilled as others, then practice! Instead, you insisted on challenging Old Monster Wang. Now look what happened, you've lost your life."
"But you shouldn't let people laugh at you for losing so badly."
"Since I'm risking my life to write this, then I, a spoiled young master, should also venture into the world of martial arts."
"It's time to practice martial arts. I will go to Martial Emperor City myself and bring those swords back no matter what."
Xu Fengnian downed the wine in his cup in one gulp, then picked up another cup and spilled it on the ground.
"If there is truly an afterlife, may you also be like Fahai, awe-inspiring throughout the world."
"I'll go and demand an explanation from Old Monster Wang on your behalf after this battle."
When Fahai was mentioned, his brow furrowed slightly.
Fahai is not at peace either these days.
Han Shengxuan – known as "Human Cat", is extremely difficult to deal with.
He had a particular fondness for torturing unparalleled masters, and countless souls had perished at his hands.
Although he was the eldest son of the King of Beiliang, the power he could mobilize was actually quite limited.
People of Han Shengxuan's rank are extremely rare.
It seems we still need to consult with Minister Nangong.
Xu Fengnian stepped out of Wutong Garden and ascended Tingchao Pavilion.
On the fourth floor, they found Minister Nangong consulting martial arts texts.
"How did you come?"
She was slightly surprised.
Based on their past interactions, he has never been interested in martial arts, so why would he suddenly stumble into this place that holds all the martial arts in the world?
Meanwhile, Minister Nangong read extensively during this period, and his cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds.
Even when facing experts at the Celestial Realm, they might still have a fighting chance, no longer the helpless creatures they once were.
"Little Master Fahai has already set foot on the territory of Beiliang."
As soon as he finished speaking, Nangong Pushe paused, then leaped down from the fourth floor and landed directly on the ground.
"When did he set off? Where is he now?"
Her usually aloof demeanor suddenly became more urgent, and her expression changed.
A hint of joy appeared in her eyes.
Seeing this, Xu Fengnian couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion.
This young monk Fahai is not only highly skilled in martial arts and has amazing comprehension, but his luck is also rare in the world!
It actually made this iceberg smile.
It seems I need to find an opportunity to learn a thing or two from them.
Chapter 162 Playing Chess with Xu Weixiong
Since arriving in Beiliang, Minister Nangong has been engrossed in the martial arts classics in Tingchao Pavilion.
No matter how turbulent the outside world was, she always remained calm, as if nothing was bothering her.
Only when Fahai is mentioned do I experience emotional fluctuations.
Master Fahai is truly a role model for everyone.
Xu Fengnian silently gave it a thumbs up in his heart, and then said, "Judging by the time, he should be entering the territory of Beiliang soon."
Upon hearing this, Nangong's joy deepened even further.
But as soon as he finished speaking, Xu Fengnian suddenly changed his tone.
"But……"
"But what?"
"That's it."
"When my second sister returned to Beiliang, she was chased and killed. Fahai and his brother killed several people to save her."
"Now the Emperor of Liyang has personally ordered the execution of Fahai."
"Not only that, the imperial guard 'Human Cat' Han Shengxuan has also made his move."
"Oh right, there's also Shi Zhixuan, who has entered Liyang, and his target is also Fahai."
Upon hearing this, Nangong frowned slightly, stood up, and gripped his knife.
"Hey, where are you going?"
"Find him!"
Han Shengxuan and Shi Zhixuan are both experts at the Celestial Realm.
Although Fahai has the ability to kill celestial beings, he relied on the power of the Evil Emperor's relic last time.
Even if we can still rely on the relic to deal with one person this time, how will we deal with the other person?
Moreover, that human-cat Han Shengxuan was also one of her enemies.
Nangong naturally knew how terrifying this person was.
Faced with the combined efforts of the two celestial beings, she was truly worried and had to personally go to assist Fahai!
"Hey, wait for me, I'm coming too!"
Meanwhile, Fahai was playing chess with Xu Weixiong.
This game of chess was proposed by Xu Weixiong.
She was an expert in chess, and no one could defeat her in a nineteen-line chess game.
Fahai, who had solved the Zhenlong Chess Game, was also a master of chess.
The two had not seen each other for a long time, and now that they had met, Xu Weixiong naturally did not want to miss the opportunity to exchange ideas.
So they set up the intricate chessboard and each took black and white pieces to play against each other.
She wanted to see for herself just how good Fahai was at chess.
At this moment, black and white pieces are intertwined on the chessboard, and the situation is deadlocked and difficult to determine.
It was like a battle between two armies, with soldiers fighting to the death and refusing to retreat, the scene was extremely intense!
The two men from the north and south were speechless at what they saw.
Is this a game of chess?
Why does it look like a battlefield?
The black pieces surged like a tide, launching a fierce attack. Though seemingly scattered, they were intricately linked, pressing forward relentlessly.
Fahai's every step was like a life-or-death struggle, as if he were desperately trying to break through the siege.
Whenever the situation becomes extremely critical, he always manages to find a glimmer of hope in desperate situations, find a new path, and turn the tide.
Xu Weixiong's attacks grew increasingly fierce, and the situation seemed bright, yet her brows furrowed more and more, her face revealing a hint of heaviness. After careful consideration, she solemnly placed a chess piece.
Fahai, unperturbed, casually picked up a chess piece and deftly placed it on the board! In an instant, the situation changed dramatically!
What initially seemed like a one-sided battle was suddenly reversed, the entire game seemed to have been transformed, and the outcome was unpredictable! A brilliant move turned the tide!
Xu Weixiong was out of options; defeat was inevitable!
Such earth-shattering changes all stemmed from the power of a single chess piece.
She decisively put down her chess piece and conceded defeat.
"I lost."
