The Way of the Blind Girl Chess Saint

"Don't say that. After all, the Throne title match lasts for eight hours. Of course, the two players should make good use of their time to think," Luo Zhuyu said as she squeezed onto the sofa.

The game lasted from noon to 9 pm, with the players having a one-hour break in between... and at this moment, the game between Liu Tianmen and Ji Shihu had only lasted two hours.

"Ugh... I'm about to be crushed to death," Ji Yingting said with difficulty as soon as Luo Zhuyu got on the sofa. She simply hugged Hua Shenxi onto her white silk thighs.

Then, Ji Yingting lowered her head and continued to watch the game on the starry sky chessboard, which she had asked Hua Shenxi to set up for her.

A strand of soft, bluish-green hair fell from the top of her head to her chest without her noticing. Large wavy strands of bluish-green hair rolled down, but Ji Yingting was completely unaware, her pale purple starry eyes fixed on the starry chessboard.

"Wow, amazing... Is this white piece called Liu Tianmen's Throne?"

A few seconds later, Ji Yingting's cherry-like lips parted slightly, and she let out a surprised exclamation.

Chapter 237: The Sleeping Lion, Professional Ninth Dan Luo Awakens [4500]

A strand of soft, bluish-green hair fell from the top of her head to her chest without her noticing. Large wavy strands of bluish-green hair rolled down, but Ji Yingting was completely unaware, her pale purple starry eyes fixed on the starry chessboard.

"Wow, amazing... Is this white piece called the Throne of Liu Tianmen?" A few seconds later, Ji Yingting's cherry-like lips parted slightly, and she let out a surprised exclamation.

"Hmm? Sakuraba-nee thinks Shiro is stronger..." Hanako asked, turning her head.

"That's not what I meant," Ji Yingting said, narrowing her pale purple starry eyes and gently shaking her long, light green hair in denial.

"Seriously, Black's moves are way too aggressive!"

Even though she was just setting up a chess game, everyone could feel her madness through the screen. Ji Shihu's expression when placing a piece was full of an unusual hunger; her desire to devour her opponent was just too strong!

*Thud!* On the screen, a slender arm swiftly lands on the chessboard.

"Black...she moves so fast, doesn't she need to think in a situation like this?"

Luo Zhuyu said blankly, for a player like her who plays a slow-paced game, seeing Ji Shihu's super-fast game would undoubtedly be shocking.

Of course, the black-haired girl Liu Tianmen sitting opposite her was not caught up in her rhythm either, and took about 5 to 10 minutes to think about each move.

"Ah! Let's go buy milk tea! We can drink it while we watch!" Hua Shenxi suddenly suggested, shaking her long pink hair.

"Okay, let's play rock-paper-scissors. The loser has to go buy it!"

A soft, green willow branch drooped down her cheek. Ji Yingting twirled a strand of green hair on her head and said with difficulty, "But... it's a bit difficult for one person to bring back three cups, isn't it? Otherwise, the loser won't have to buy any!"

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

At the same time, just as the three were sitting in the room watching the game, a woman with short, light green hair arrived at the entrance of the Go Association.

The woman appeared to be around thirty years old. She had a blank expression, and her short, light green hair was slightly loose behind her.

Her light green eyes were half-open, her light green eyebrows drooped slightly, and the green-haired woman looked somewhat listless.

From her appearance, this young woman with short, light green hair was unremarkable, and even gave off a drowsy feeling.

However... what is most eye-catching is the extremely wide light green Taoist robe she is wearing. The wide light green sleeves cover her hands and hang down between her legs.

On the front of her Taoist robe was a pattern of a long, bluish-green spear! And on her back was engraved a huge character: 【罗】 (Luo).

The young woman with her short, messy, light green hair immediately attracted the attention of many people near the chess academy, since most people would know her as a chess player from Crescent Province.

This Taoist robe, embroidered with a turquoise spear and the character "Luo," is a garment that only active professional Go players from the Luo family of Mingyue City are qualified to wear.

"Who is she...? What is a professional Go player from the Luo family doing in our Yongyue City?"

"Yes, the rumor that Yongyue City is a weak Go city originated from the Luo family."

Many amateur or low-ranking professional Go players whispered among themselves as they watched the woman with short, light green hair walk through the hall.

The Luo family, renowned figures of Crescent Moon Province; the Ji family, chess masters of Full Moon Province; and the Ke family, Honinbo of Imperial Moon Province.

These are the three super Go families that have dominated the top three positions in the Go world for many years. Apart from the Ke family, which is about to decline... the Luo family and the Ji family can even be said to be the symbols of those two regions.

However, Crescent Moon Province also has many powerful Go players and families. The Go players in Wing Moon City and Wild Moon City are very unhappy that the Luo family of Dark Moon City can represent the entire Crescent Moon Province in Go.

Therefore, it's natural that the Go players in Eigetsu City would harbor hostility towards this professional Go player from the Luo family.

However, she seemed oblivious to the stares around her; the woman's light green pupils were half-closed, and her face looked as if she were about to fall asleep.

Suddenly, an arm slipped through the light green sleeve, and the green-haired woman raised her hand to rub her short, light green hair, making the top of her head even more disheveled.

"My little sister said where we were supposed to meet... I've kind of forgotten, and she's not answering her phone either." The woman with light green short hair shook her head helplessly, her voice slightly languid.

"Huh?" Just then, the woman's expression suddenly froze. She looked at the television in a coffee shop near the corridor and instantly stopped in her tracks.

"Oh, so today's title battle is between the Tiger-Eating Sister and the Throne... I almost forgot about it because of my little sister."

A few seconds later, the green-haired woman clapped her hands in realization, but her green eyes still held a lazy, half-asleep look.

“Perfect timing, let’s take a look at the game… The game of Liu Wangzuo is very valuable research material.” A calm voice came from the green-haired woman as she walked towards the coffee shop, dragging her light green Taoist robe.

"This ice cream and iced coffee is amazing!! Big sister is so lucky to eat human food every day! I never thought I, Shang Sisi, could have such a happy time, woohoo!"

Just as the green-haired woman entered the coffee shop, a girl with long orange hair happily announced loudly. In front of her was a wooden chessboard, and she was drinking coffee while watching the Throne Battle on TV.

"However, I didn't feel they were that strong! This throne title battle should be participated in by me, Shang Sisi, hahahahahaha!!"

A slight blush appeared on her cute face as the orange-haired girl laughed arrogantly.

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

"What? You're saying she's the one who went to the Go Association? How is that possible... How could she be in Yongyue City at this time?"

At the 10-dan Go Academy, a middle-aged man with white hair suddenly stood up.

"Hmm, based on the description of her appearance... it should be her, teacher... what should we do? Should I go to greet her?" The androgynous girl with short, pink curly hair stood to the side and asked anxiously.

Of course, Fei Qiluo knew what this woman's name represented in Crescent Moon Province... No chess player who hadn't seen that woman in person could possibly understand how terrifying she was.

"I want to see her in person...!!" Lin Hong's black pupils widened suddenly, and a terrifying aura emanated from his entire body, causing the curtains in the entire chess academy to rustle loudly... moving without any wind.

"No! ... How can you expose yourself to the media at such a crucial moment, teacher? What will the media think! Do you really want to fall into a disadvantageous position in public opinion before the title battle even begins... I, the senior sister, should go!" the pink-haired girl said urgently.

"Teacher, you should calmly prepare for the tenth-dan title battle against the Silver Spear Princess in ten days."

The next moment, Lin Hong slowly shook his head and said in a low voice, "She is very strong. That's enough for me to go see her in person."

“Teacher…” Fei Qiluo lowered her head slowly. She knew that she could no longer persuade her teacher.

In the end, Fei Qiluo could only nod silently.

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

"Hahaha, press? Black made a terrible move! Can someone of this level even participate in a title match?!" Just after Ji Shihu placed a black piece on the screen, Shang Sisi almost spat out his iced coffee from laughing.

"That's not a bad move. After all, Sister Tiger's playing style has always been like that. How about it? Pretty exciting, right? Pretty passionate, right?" Suddenly, a calm voice came from beside her. A woman with short green hair sat down next to her at some point.

Huh? The orange, sinister eyes widened slightly in surprise. Shang Sisi, her long orange hair swaying, leaned back on the sofa somewhat awkwardly. "Who are you? Can you not get so close to me?"

With a hint of disgust in her orange eyes, Shang Sisi glanced at the green-haired woman beside her and continued, "What nonsense! I'll take their place soon! I'll take all the titles!"

"Hmm?" The green-haired woman's face suddenly tilted to the side, letting her short, light green hair slide down her cheek.

The next moment, she slowly said, "You just said... you want to get the title of [Celebrity]?"

Um... Shang Sisi's expression froze slightly, and she frowned as she pondered deeply.

She clearly said she wanted to get all the titles. Did she say something wrong, or did the green-haired woman misunderstand?

However... it's not wrong to say that she wants the title of a celebrity.

After all, a celebrity with one of the top three titles... is more appealing than the "Throne" currently playing on TV.

"That's right! I'm going to get all the titles, including the Meijin title. You Luo family players, just you wait, hahahaha!!"

“No…no.” The green-haired woman shook her head seriously. The next second, her half-closed light green pupils opened slightly.

“The weak have no right to aspire to be a celebrity. You… are too weak… you are very weak.” The green-haired woman slowly shook her head, calmly denying it.

"I am qualified! I am strong!!" Shang Sisi stood up angrily, her long orange hair flying, her orange eyes glaring at the short-haired woman in front of her.

As soon as the words "You are very weak" were spoken, a pair of light green pupils opened instantly!

Hey?

However, in the next second, Shang Sisi's orange pupils suddenly lost focus. Looking at the green-haired woman's half-closed pupils, a few drops of cold sweat slowly dripped down her fair neck.

"What...what is this? How is this possible? How could I possibly feel this level of fear from another player?!"

Shang Sisi screamed wildly in her heart, her breathing becoming slightly rapid.

"Aaaaaaah!!!" She wanted to scream, but... the air seemed to freeze, and Shang Sisi couldn't utter a sound at all.

Her orange pupils gradually contracted, and tears of fear flowed uncontrollably from them.

The green-haired woman's pupils seemed like a chilling wind sweeping over Shang Sisi's body, and her snot involuntarily flowed down her face, mixing with her tears and getting into her mouth.

"Waaaaah, it hurts so much, it's so painful." With an indescribable mixture of liquids in her mouth, Shang Sisi slowly knelt down from the sofa.

who is she!!

Despair... This was the first time Shang Sisi had felt a sense of despair from the bottom of her heart. The green-haired woman in front of her was a mountain that she could not yet overcome.

In the past, those who were desperate were the chess players she was playing against, and that has never changed.

"Ah, sorry, did I scare you... But you are indeed very weak, am I right?" the green-haired woman said calmly, slowly narrowing her pale green eyes.

"Ha, ha, ha," Shang Sisi gasped for breath, her orange eyes wide. Having finally recovered from the green-haired woman's aura, she picked up a tissue and wiped away her tears and snot.

Hmm? The next moment, a slender arm gently rested on the green-haired woman's shoulder.

"Hey, don't lay a hand on such a young girl."

A clear, ethereal voice came from behind the green-haired woman. She slowly turned around and saw a stunningly beautiful girl with long, light green hair standing quietly behind her.

She wore a magnificent floor-length Taoist robe in a water lily color, with two wide sleeves that blended water lily color with green fluttering gently, and slender arms resting on her shoulders.

The girl's eyes were somewhat similar to hers; her pale purple star-like eyes seemed to slowly open a crack, and her squinting eyes looked more natural than hers.

That's too much... scaring someone like that is just too much.

Ji Yingting ignored the woman with short, light green hair and rushed to the sofa, gently picking up Shang Sisi, who was trembling with fear.

Although Ji Yingting didn't know who the person in front of her was, judging from the gentle touch, she should be a petite girl...

With her long orange hair buried in her water lily-colored Taoist robe, Shang Sisi was successfully pulled into Ji Yingting's arms.
