The Way of the Blind Girl Chess Saint

The sun in the sky is even more beautiful, even more...fiery.

"When I wake up tomorrow morning, how will I remember that inconspicuous little bird from yesterday? No matter how dazzling and beautiful the red bird may be, it is not as dazzling as the sun in the sky, nor as beautiful as the distant sunset, and certainly not as beautiful as my red hair."

Why would a casual, narcissistic remark from childhood suddenly come to mind now?

Ji Hongying was puzzled. Despite having a splitting headache that felt like it was about to explode, her thoughts were drifting into the distant past.

Day after day, year after year. After her sister left, regardless of spring, summer, autumn, or winter, or frost or torrential rain, Ji Hongying would always go to her backyard to watch the birds after school at the chess academy.

Unfortunately, it flew away somewhere in the end. Did it go to chase the sun in the sky? Is it because the sun is more dazzling than itself that the bird always hovers in the sky and never flies down to its own palm?

Little Ji Hongying was extremely unwilling to give up, which was why she kept watching the little bird.

So……

If one day she becomes dazzling, and her beautiful, ruby-like eyes become even more vibrant, will the little birds be attracted and fly into her palm...?

Her long, fiery red hair, damp with sweat, stopped flowing as Ji Hongying picked up the white chess piece.

"call"

An eerie aura emanated from her cherry-like mouth through her teeth. Looking at Ke Jiuman, whose face was much more youthful than her own, Ji Hongying bit her lower lip, and a few drops of blood slid from the corner of her mouth.

Cheer up!

She shouted inwardly, her red eyes widening suddenly. So what if there were a few more, like Ji Heiyu or Ke Jiuman?!

As long as it becomes more fiery than anything else...

So, what falls into the palm of your hand is not just a little bird, is it?

Ji Hongying's long red hair gradually floated up, a bizarre scene that anyone could see. Her eyes were lowered, and the aura of flames rose higher and higher.

In an instant... whether they were new first dan players or professional ninth dan players, as long as they were professional players at the Manyue Go Academy, a strong feeling of palpitation spread to their entire heart.

Even the usually calm Ke Jiuman raised her head in disbelief, her pupils widening.

"Aaaaaaahhhhh!! Hey hey hey!! This is really bad, isn't it!? This guy..."

...........

already……

No one can stop me anymore, no one... has the right.

I have already surpassed my sister. Ke Jiuman, who stands before me, is the opponent I most need to defeat. I can deeply feel her strength!

With only Ke Jiuman in her sight, Ji Hongying slowly lowered the white chess piece she had raised above her head.

Although I originally wanted to show this move to my sister.

But... now?

This overwhelming power is yours to take on, Ke Jiuman.

Boom boom boom boom boom boom!

The terrifying heat transformed into boiling flames. Shouts and trembling sounds filled the air. No matter how much Ke Jiuman tried to believe it was an illusion, the god-like scene in his eyes could not be dispelled!

This time, it wasn't a bird that fell.

It wasn't her brilliance that drew them in... the sun!!!

Buzzing and spinning, a boiling fireball fell from the sky, illuminating the entire sky above the Full Moon Chess Academy with red light, and all kinds of light gathered at Ji Hongying's fingertips.

Chapter 480: My Annoying Little Sister [Fourth Update]

"Chess Game Unleashed: Sunset Over the Divine Court"

In the brief moment of sunset, Ji Hongying experienced a bizarre hallucination.

She walked alone through a sea of ​​red flowers, the fiery blossoms swirling in their petals, but... on the other side of the flower field lay a scene of purgatory. A boiling volcano, a world of fire with no color other than red.

At the end of purgatory sat a black, withered skeleton, its soul charred and heartbreaking.

"Is this... the end of the game? Is that me?" Ji Hongying's red eyes widened as she regained consciousness.

Even a splitting headache couldn't stop her desire for victory, but... her right hand trembled and stopped placing a piece.

Whether as a professional Go player or as a human being, there are still many things she wants to do and many Go players she wants to play against.

There are still views to see, and peaks to climb that we yearn to reach; they can't all be burned out like Ke Jiuman said...

The sun's radiance vanished into thin air, and Ji Hongying sighed deeply, her brows drooping. Looking at Ke Jiuman's smile, she bit her lip in anger, and felt... the desolation of being unable to win.

After a few seconds of stunned silence, she overturned the chessboard with a crash, scattering the chess pieces across the floor.

“Red Tassel…”

The Ji family members and others who were still watching the game couldn't bear to see her expression, so they all lowered their heads.

Ji Hongying... conceded defeat. The Ji family's journey ended in the semifinals.

At this moment, however, everyone felt only pity for her. She had come this far... she was so close to defeating the Ke family!

"Push the board?... Really, you're too jumpy, my heart isn't strong~" Ke Jiuman shrugged and tidied up the chess pieces.

With her hands clenched tightly and tears of rage welling in her red eyes, Ji Hongying said in a trembling voice, "Just you wait, one day... I will use your Honinbo titles to wash away today's shame."

"shame?"

The petite girl paused for a moment, her long black hair curling slightly. A moment later, she tiptoed to Ji Hongying's ear and stood on tiptoe.

"Little Sister Hongying, can you tell me what you saw? Was it shame? Or... despair?"

"!!!"

With her eyes wide open, Ji Hongying looked up in disbelief at the young female chess player who looked like an elementary school student... She watched as her fingers lightly slid across her palm, and the dripping black liquid made a muffled, hoarse sound.

"However, since you've piqued my interest, I'll just assume I'll lose~~~~"

The girl's wicked smile was intriguing; why did she adopt such an arrogant attitude? It was as if... as if the skeleton in her illusion had been created by her own hands!

“That bastard…” Ji Hongying stopped trembling and stared at Ke Jiuman’s back for a long time without saying a word.

After witnessing this, the female referee with long black hair spoke up, "Ji Hongying, go back and rest early. Although the result is regrettable, by the way... remember to give my regards to Ji Qinghe."

"Yes……"

Ji Hongying responded in a low voice, dragging her heavy steps back to the passage. After a long game of chess, the semi-finals of the Sansheng Cup have ended... The remaining two teams will compete for the sole championship the day after tomorrow.

Walking through the dark corridor, my mood had calmed down a bit.

But... even though she knew that guy was very strong, not just ordinary strong, Ji Hongying still couldn't suppress her anger. She swayed her long red hair and strode out of the chess room.

Having ultimately defeated Ji Heiyu, was there anything else she no longer needed to care about?

Looking back at the darkness behind her, Ji Hongying saw the light coming from the hall in front of her.

Is this result satisfactory to her? She doesn't know, but... everyone in the Ji family will definitely be very satisfied and happy that she defeated Ji Heiyu.

Next, my status in the Ji family will be greatly improved, and I will be completely on par with the older generation. Perhaps... they will let me play in the top league?

But is this what she expected? Ke Jiuman was so arrogant as to say those things to her! Can she really accept the bright future with a clear conscience?

"Hongying, you've worked hard..."

As Ji Hongying passed the corner, she paused slightly. The girl with long, bluish-green hair played with her hair and whispered.

Her eyes narrowed into pale purple slits, and her nonchalant tone stirred up a tidal wave in Ji Hongying's heart.

Ji Yingting...

She wore a gorgeous lotus-colored Taoist robe, white knee-high stockings, and long, light green hair that looked much softer than her own...

Are the two of them really that similar? At least... this is the first time Ji Hongying has felt that the girl in front of her is so distant from her.

When I first met her after she became an adult, she was still an amateur chess player who couldn't even afford a chess player's uniform. Back then, she... wasn't as sacred as she is now. Her long, light green hair was woven like silk.

Ji Hongying stood there, stunned and silent, walking step by step toward Ji Yingting. What she wanted... was not a false sense of light and beauty!

This emotion... can only be vented on the person she most wants to confide in.

"elder sister……"

"Huh? Hongying?"

Ji Yingting let out a soft exclamation. She felt something suddenly hug her thigh, and her indifferent expression finally revealed a hint of reluctance.

Drip, drip, drip, tears streamed down her face. She didn't care about winning the glory of Ji Heiyu; that wasn't what she truly desired!

Her fiery red hair cascaded to the ground, and the spirited young girl knelt down, weeping bitterly before her... right in front of her, crying for her to see.

"Waaaaah, sister, sister, please, please... teach Ke Jiu Man a lesson for me!!!! Waaaaah, I'm so angry! That awful guy dared to mock me so arrogantly!! Waaaaah, I'm not convinced, I'm not reconciled!! Waaaaah!"

Even the phrase "tears streaming down her face" cannot adequately describe Ji Hongying's state at this moment. In the darkness, Ji Yingting could hear the girl's purest sobs echoing in her ears.

This guy, he just lost one game of chess and he's crying his eyes out, it's really pathetic...

"please……"

But, but...

Come to think of it, hasn't she always been this kind of girl since childhood? Her small hand reached out from her sleeve and gently knelt down to stroke Ji Hongying's red hair.

She has the best of everything, yet she is so greedy, never satisfied, and arrogant, wanting to hold everything in her hands. Haven't I gotten used to her personality ten years ago?

What an annoying little sister.

pity……

Who made me...

Is she her older sister?
