The Way of the Blind Girl Chess Saint

She had never learned Go from the beginning, or rather... did that woman really know how to play Go? Had she ever played Go before?

That's right... No Go player can play against someone who doesn't know how to play Go at all, that's what Ji Yingting meant.

"...How is it, Sakura?" Seeing that she hadn't responded for a long time, Quan Shihui bent down and squatted down next to Ji Sakura, with a look of doubt on his face.

Ji Yingting gently shook her long, light green hair a few times and said softly, "Shall we play a game of chess?"

"It wasn't you, it wasn't you..." After being comforted, the black-haired woman calmed down and simply shook her head gently.

“I didn’t say I wanted to play chess with you… I was talking about her, so… could you move aside a little?” Ji Yingting gently brushed a stray strand of her light green hair with her left hand, blinked her pale purple starry eyes, and pointed at Quan Shihui as she spoke.

"Hmm? You want to play chess with me? What is Sakuraba thinking?" Slightly frowning, Quan Shihui glanced at her mother, but didn't seem to have any strange reaction.

Phew... okay.

Quan Shihui raised her black eyebrows and moved slightly closer to her mother, taking the rusty black chess piece from under the black-haired woman's dazed gaze.

"Hmm... let me think." Ji Yingting tapped her chin with her slender hand, and she quickly placed three white pieces and one black piece on the chessboard.

Three white pieces surrounded the black piece in the shape of a tiger's mouth. After Ji Yingting finished placing them, she placed her hands flat on her lotus-colored knees.

"What is Sakuraba trying to do..." Quan Shihui was slightly taken aback, his dark red pupils filled with confusion.

"So, Little Grey, where will you move next, if you're playing black?"

"Little Grey?" Quan Shihui's lips twitched a few times. She puffed up her cheeks like steamed buns in anger. Wasn't she supposed to be playing chess? What was she trying to do by testing her with things that even beginners could do?

A soft rustling sound rang out as fingers rubbed against a chess piece.

Hey?

However, in the next instant, Quan Shihui's dark red eyes widened suddenly...

Then, the black-haired woman sitting next to her quietly picked up a black chess piece with her right hand, placed it in the wrong position, and then stared at Ji Yingting with a blank expression.

"No, no! We shouldn't have played like that!"

Unlike Quan Shihui, who looked shocked, Ji Yingting seemed to have anticipated this situation. She gently picked up the black chess piece from the board and put on a serious expression.

"You should play here, so that Black can escape successfully, understand?"

"Oh, oh," the beautiful woman with long black hair nodded in sudden realization, squeezing out a sound with difficulty from her throat, staring curiously at the black chess piece that had fallen from Ji Yingting's hand onto the chessboard.

"Hmm!" After receiving a response from the black-haired woman, Ji Yingting blinked her pale purple pupils at Quan Shihui, as if she were giving her a lightning bolt.

Regardless of Quan Shihui's feeling of almost vomiting, she was more concerned about her mother's condition at this moment.

Chapter 213: Mother Clan

"You should play here, so that Black can escape successfully, understand?"

"Oh, oh," the beautiful woman with long black hair nodded in sudden realization, squeezing out a sound with difficulty from her throat, staring curiously at the black chess piece that had fallen from Ji Yingting's hand onto the chessboard.

"Hmm!" After receiving a response from the black-haired woman, Ji Yingting blinked her pale purple pupils at Quan Shihui, as if she were flirting with her.

Regardless of Quan Shihui's feeling of almost vomiting, she was more concerned about her mother's condition at this moment.

How is Mom? Why did she react to this?

"Mother……"

"Ok?"

The black-haired woman looked up at Quan Shihui with a hint of confusion... but then lowered her head again.

"!!!"

This small gesture alone gave Quan Shihui a jolt. His mother... she really was different from before.

Could teaching her Go help her recover? Quan Shihui wasn't entirely sure... but it at least gave her a glimmer of hope.

Indeed, it is very easy for a player who has lost his passion for Go to forget how to play Go in ten years. Ji Yingting reached out and gently brushed the green hair that fell on both sides of her ears.

Ji Yingting didn't want to know what had happened in the past... but she was already somewhat connected to this matter in some mysterious way.

"Has Mom completely forgotten how to play Go? How did you know, Sakuraba?"

Sitting on the airship on the return journey, Quan Shihui stared silently out the window.

"Speaking of which, don't you need to spend more time with your mother? Is it really okay for you to come back with me?" Ji Yingting blinked her pale purple pupils at the ground, her cute face showing no emotion.

"Yes, I haven't been able to take care of my mother myself for a long time because I've been preparing for my professional exams... I'll spend more time with her after the exams are over," Quan Shihui said calmly.

"Thank you... Sakuraba." Quan Shihui's dark red pupils narrowed slightly as he gently placed a slender hand on the inside of Ji Sakuraba's thigh. It was soft and cool.

Huh? A bluish-green ahoge (cowlick) stood up slightly from the top of Ji Yingting's bluish-green head, and her pale purple starry eyes blinked.

"Where are you touching!" Ji Yingting blushed slightly and quickly moved her leg away, shaking it.

You know, I wasn't wearing stockings today. My two beautiful, white legs were exposed, and I don't know how many girls stared at me and drooled all the way here.

"Ah... I'm sorry."

Quan Shihui brushed aside a strand of black hair that had fallen across his face and said awkwardly.

Ji Yingting's Taoist robe was not long to begin with, and it became even shorter when she sat down, leaving her two long, white legs exposed in front of her. After all, her hand had accidentally touched such a deep place.

Anyway, thank you.

"It's okay, after all, you treated me to a meal," Ji Yingting said, turning her head away as she gently smoothed her slightly disheveled hair with her left hand.

"You were really good in today's match... Sakuraba."

"Hmm, I know..." Her pale purple starry eyes narrowed slightly, and she leaned her long, light green hair against Quan Shihui. Ugh... I'm so tired.

Ji Yingting... is asleep.

................

"Slap!" A loud slap came from inside the house. A boy with a black watermelon-shaped haircut fell to the ground. His black hair fell down his cheek and tears welled up in the corner of his eye under his black bangs.

"Sister...please, I was wrong, please don't hit me."

She huddled in the corner, trembling with fear, and looked up at the beautiful girl with long black hair.

In addition to her long, black, waterfall-like hair, the girl also had two black ponytails that slowly cascaded down from the sides of her head, a hairstyle that looked like something only an idol would wear, making her incredibly eye-catching.

"Jun, you've contacted that man again, haven't you? I've warned you so many times, why can't you listen?" The beautiful girl with long black hair tilted her head slightly and said in a rather sickly tone.

A strange light flickered in her dark pupils, and her small tongue lightly licked the corner of her mouth. "Humans are such lowly creatures that you are not worthy of having feelings, understand? If there is a next time, I will kill that man named Li Kaixuan, do you understand, sister..."

"Please, sister, give me another chance! Don't kill him!!" The delicate girl with long, flowing black hair nodded immediately and pleaded.

"It's okay... who told you to be my little sister?" The black-haired girl chuckled and used one of her small hands to lift Wang Jun's chin. She stretched out her fair little feet from under her nightgown in front of Wang Jun, indicating that she should kneel and lick them.

A slight dampness gradually appeared in his toes, and his black pupils slowly lost all traces of humanity, turning fierce.

“That’s right… Only someone as beautiful, radiant, kind, loving, and adorable as Sakuraba, someone whose brilliance transcends human capabilities, is the kind of person our mother race should propagate. However… for the sake of our mother race’s plan spanning hundreds of billions of years, I cannot… cannot go to see her yet.”

"There are still a few years left, so now we have to... endure, endure more, endure even more." Wang Murou's face flushed, and she imagined that beautiful long, green hair in her mind, her fair body gradually collapsing to the ground.

....................

"Huh? Why did Wang Jun suddenly hang up the phone?"

Amidst a blanket of white snow, a man with long, fiery red hair muttered to himself in bewilderment.

Tap tap tap, a series of hurried footsteps came from in front of him, and a blue-eyed man with white hair quietly walked up to him.

"Oh, you've arrived?"

…………

"If you invited me out just to mock me, then please don't bother... I'll never play Go again."

His tone was somewhat flat, and even He Zhou's icy blue eyes seemed slightly dimmed as he spoke quietly to the red-haired man.

“Of course I didn’t mean to mock you…and I haven’t hated you for a long time. I’m looking for you today because of something else…the teacher said he wants to see us,” Li Kaixuan said, looking at the sky.

"Teacher..." Upon hearing these two words, Lian Hezhou's expression faltered slightly.

PS: More than one update today.

Chapter 214: The Emperor Returns

Drip, drip... A few drops of sweat trickled down the forehead of the flaxen-haired girl. This was the sixth round of the Group A match, and her current record was 4 wins and 1 loss.

"How is this possible... The difference in our chess skills is so huge!! Is she really a candidate...?" The flaxen-haired girl stared blankly ahead, her eyes wide with disbelief.

A stunningly beautiful girl with a light green herringbone hairstyle gently covered her red and white lips with a water lily-colored sleeve, her pale purple starry eyes narrowed into slits.

Ji Yingting let out a soft breath, and the black chess piece held in her slender right hand slowly fell into the chessboard.

With a crisp echo, the girl with long flaxen hair slowly lowered her head, her flaxen bangs gradually falling down and covering her eyebrows.

"........."

Her fair hands clenched slightly, a hint of resentment in her expression. She frowned, her face contorted with distress, and then said with difficulty, "...I give up. I lost."

"Yes, thank you for your hard work." Ji Yingting nodded gently, swaying her long, light green hair, and blinked her pale purple starry eyes.

We also had a very easy victory today.

With her light green eyebrows slightly raised, Ji Yingting looked down at the starry chessboard in her eyes, where countless black and white chess pieces filled the entire board.

She won a decisive victory with an overwhelming advantage using black pieces, completely dominating the opponent.

Slaying the dragon... For Yi Ji Ying Ting, Black has an advantage of at least 50 points on the board.

For a player with a professional ranking, it is more likely to kill a dragon when playing black than when playing white.

After all, White is the defensive side in the game, and unless there are special reasons, White's moves are generally more conservative than Black's. Conversely, when White plays Black, players tend to be more aggressive.

After quickly tidying up the chess pieces, Ji Yingting stood up from the sofa. The game of chess had ended before lunch break was even over.

"Ji Yingting... a six-game winning streak? Her next opponent seems to be Luo Zhuyu, who is also undefeated... They seem to have a good relationship."

Feeling a bit down, the girl with long, flaxen hair sullenly finished tidying up the chess pieces and secretly glanced at Ji Yingting as she left.
