Having cultivated myself into an immortal, all I want to do is raise female disciples.

"Play with me?"

Yun Ping didn't even glance at Feng Tangwen, casually chewing on his peanuts. "Are you a masochist?"

Ye Yuchan, sitting to the side, raised an eyebrow, thinking to herself that this guy never speaks seriously.

Feng Tangwen, however, had absolutely no idea what this special word meant.

"boss."

Yu Bai Niao's voice came from behind. Feng Tangwen turned around and found that Yu Bai Niao was still standing in the same place.

"What's wrong, Bai Niao Le Lian?"

Yu Bai Niao bit her lower lip tightly, forcing herself to muster the courage to say, "That... is my guest."

“I know.” Feng Tang asked, knowing what Yu Bai Niao meant, but he was the boss. “I just want to have a game of chess with this gentleman. You can rest assured.”

"I……"

"It's alright, you can play another round with Huan'er. I'll have someone keep an eye on the match."

Jade Bird: "..."

Seeing that Yu Bai Niao was still standing there motionless, Feng Tang clicked his tongue impatiently and got up to say something.

Yunping spoke up: "Alright, Bai Niao, go play another game. I'll just play a little with your boss."

After saying that, she gave Yu Bai Niao a reassuring look, indicating that she was alright.

Only after Yunping spoke did Yu Bai Niao reluctantly reply, but she still kept glancing at Yunping, as if afraid that Feng Tangwen might do something to her.

Unfortunately, Yu Bainiao didn't know Yun Ping's identity, otherwise she wouldn't be worried about Yun Ping, but rather her boss, Feng Tangwen.

Knowing this, Ye Yuchan quietly moved aside and huddled with Zhang Ruoxue, ready to watch the show.

—Playing chess with Emperor Wen? Sir, please choose your preferred burial site.

A chessboard was placed in front of Yunping.

How could Yunping not know what Feng Tang was thinking?

It's just that he felt unhappy because he secretly helped Yu Bai Niao earlier but failed to get his hands on Yu Bai Niao directly.

The reason I came to play chess with him now was just to distract myself so that I wouldn't have time to help him in the upcoming tiebreaker game.

After all, for a normal chess player, focusing on playing one game requires a lot of energy, and it is simply impossible to analyze two games at the same time.

Unless you're facing two incredibly weak opponents.

Swish! !

For some reason, a large portion of the people who had originally gone to watch Yu Bai Niao and Feng Tang Huan suddenly turned to Yun Ping's side.

They all stared intently at the chessboard, their faces full of anticipation as they looked at Feng Tangwen.

"The boss is playing chess! The boss is playing chess!"

It was someone else who started this whole thing.

The crowd immediately began to stir.

"I'm going to watch the boss play chess. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I have to observe carefully."

"Observe my ass! I'm ready to record the entire game. This is the boss playing chess!!"

"Hehehe, I never thought I would see an eighth-dan player playing Go. This is one of the benefits of living a long life."

"Eight dan? Isn't the boss a seventh dan?"

"I just went to the player promotion certification a few days ago, and the boss passed it. He's now an eighth-dan player!"

"Eighth Dan, oh my god..."

These words all reached Yunping's ears.

An eighth-dan player, that's truly an extraordinary level.

Looking at the excited expressions on everyone's faces, Ye Yuchan looked at Zhang Ruoxue beside her with a question in her mind, "Ruoxue, is this eighth-dan Go player... very good?"

“Very impressive.” Zhang Ruoxue answered without hesitation: “There are probably no more than ten eighth-dan Go players in the entire Desolate Heaven Domain.”

"So you're one of these ten?!" Ye Yuchan remembered that Zhang Ruoxue was also very capable, and rattled off the technical terms.

Zhang Ruoxue shook her head with a bitter smile, "No, I should say I don't even know what rank I am. I've never been to the Go Players' Headquarters. My Go skills are all self-taught."

Ye Yuchan said "Oh" and then fell silent.

Anyway, if Yunping is really Emperor Wen, then whether he is at the eighth, ninth, or even one hundred and eightyth level, it shouldn't be a big problem.

It's only the eighth dan.

53. The game never even started.

"You really want to play with me..." Yunping smiled wryly, a helpless look on his face. "It's been a long time since I've played chess."

This is a really long time. If you don't count the few moves he made to help Yu Bai Niao just now, he hasn't played chess for almost two hundred years.

And the last time I played chess, I was playing against myself...

Feng Tangwen revealed a fake smile of humility, "It's alright, I only have a little knowledge of chess, and we're just playing around, we'll stop here."

"No, that's not how it works."

Yunping crossed his legs, and a glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes, which were slightly narrowed in enjoyment.

His calm words echoed around them.

"I'm just afraid of hurting you too badly, and then I'll lose face."

The sudden outburst startled Feng Tangwen, causing his facial muscles to twitch. "Your Excellency, Feng Da really does have a silver tongue."

"That depends on whose tongue you're speaking," Yunping stretched lazily. "Maybe the person sitting in front of you is a chess master?"

"A chess master? I don't recall any chess masters from the Desolate Heaven Domain. Surely you're not from the Kun Heaven Domain?"

"You know what, I actually used to live in the Kuntian Domain."

Feng Tangwen suddenly laughed, a very sarcastic laugh: "You are all alone, you have not even shown your cultivation level, your spiritual energy is nothing, your spiritual root is empty, and your physical body is just a mortal body. You should not be able to withstand the spatial turbulence when crossing the Heavenly Domain, right?"

The so-called spatial turbulence refers to the immense pressure of spatial distortion that the physical body experiences when traversing between the three celestial domains. Without a certain level of cultivation, attempting to cross the three celestial domains is practically tantamount to courting death.

How could someone like Yunping, who has no spiritual energy at all, say that he originally stayed in the Kuntian Domain and then came to the Huangtian Domain?

Who would believe that?!

Yunping didn't care; believe it if you want, don't believe it if you don't.

He casually pulled out a white chess piece, and this time he was lucky enough to play white and move first.

They randomly landed in an extremely ordinary place.

At the same time, the second duel between Yu Bai Niao and Feng Tang Huan also began.

This time, Feng Tanghuan entered a state of extreme seriousness. He couldn't solve the game just now, but he also realized the power of the Jade Hundred Birds before him, which made him slightly more serious about dealing with it.

This is bad news for Yu Bai Niao... If things really get serious, how can she possibly compete with Feng Tang Huan?

But this time, she was surprised to find that the voice had been directing her from the very beginning!

"Flying Needle 17"

However, it was a very peculiar way to start.

Although she still had doubts, she followed the instructions of the voice.

Time goes by every second...

The expressions of Feng Tangwen and Feng Tanghuan changed with the passage of time...

What... happened?

Feng Tang stared blankly at the chessboard covered with chess pieces, his mind somewhat muddled.

Yunping's white pieces were scattered, extremely scattered, like stars randomly placed across the sky.

However... he could see, or rather, sense, that these moves completely locked down his own situation.

Attack here? No, the opponent laid an obvious trap before the eighth move.

Attacking there? That won't work either. The opponent has already strengthened their defenses three moves ago, so a direct attack would definitely fail.

Retreat? No, that won't do. If we retreat, the enemy's situation will only get worse.

A sacrifice to turn the tide?

Or not.

The other party seemed to have anticipated his every move, as if they could read his mind, and blocked all his escape routes.

Not a breath of air could be seen at all...

Feng Tang felt as if a hand was gripping his throat, and the suffocating pain poured down from head to toe.

This was the first time he had ever had this feeling while playing chess.

There was no sound around.

Although no one could truly see through the deadly intent in this game, they could all see that... this unknown young man in front of them had actually suppressed Boss Feng, who was an eighth-dan player in Go!

I haven't heard of any chess masters visiting the Arctic Palace recently!

That's a bit scary.

Yunping smiled indifferently at the way everyone looked at him as if he were a monster. Killing a mere eighth-dan brat was not a lot of fun for him.

The opponent's ideas and strategies were too naive, so naive that Yunping had the illusion that he was playing chess with a child.

So weak...

The white piece in his hand slowly fell to the ground.

Snapped!

A sharp crack startled Feng Tangwen, causing his heart to stop for a moment.

It was a move, but it was an offensive move.
