Chapter 228 - Broken Chess
After the conversation with Su Xinghe ended, the entire audience's focus shifted onto Ling Xiao.
Originally, everyone's eyes were focused on the chess board, so they did not pay attention to the surrounding people. Now that Ling Xiao had taken the initiative to appear, naturally, they had stolen all the limelight.
As for the contents of the chessboard, even with the strength of these trash, they were unable to understand it.
"It's Ling Xiao!"
"He came as well. I heard that not long ago, he singlehandedly exterminated an entire astrologer."
"That's right, that great devil Ding Chunqiu also died in his hands, and from that, he suffered a miserable fate. He was beaten to death by ordinary citizens."
"That's right, that's right, now that the astrologer is gone, Ding Chunqiu's death can be said to be extremely unfair, but not a single disciple among all of them is able to take revenge."
"Hush, you should be quiet. For a demon, you should be careful that the Sect Master Ling will not kill you too!"
The discussion was not quiet, but Murong Fu did not have a single reaction, because at this moment, he was completely immersed in the chessboard game.
"That should be enough." Ling Xiao glanced at the purple faced Murong Fu and spoke once more.
Although this was Murong Fu's own choice and Ling Xiao didn't care about whether he lived or died, this was still a place to challenge. It would be too unlucky for a person to die.
In Ling Xiao's opinion, if Murong Fu still hadn't left the game and pulled his mind back to reality, if he had not died a violent death, he would have gone insane and completely become a fool.
"I had originally thought that Gongzi Murong had some idea of what was going on. Only now did I realize that he didn't even know that he had fallen into it, and with the current situation, Gongzi Murong had fallen too deep, I didn't have the ability to wake him up."
"Where is my Seamless?" Ling Xiao asked. He really wanted to see what kind of person the legendary expert who possessed an extremely high seniority in the Jianghu was.
"As long as the game is not broken, he will not appear." Su Xinghe cupped his fists and replied.
Hearing that, Ling Xiao squinted his eyes, and said indifferently: "Since that's the case, then I can only take action."
Su Xinghe's expression changed as he reached out his hand and said, "Sect Master Ling, please do not. Gongzi Murong is currently immersed in playing chess and has already lost his way.
Hearing this, Ling Xiao laughed faintly, his hands did not pause at all.
As he slapped Murong Fu's back, a strong force of Innate Qi continued to enter Murong Fu's body. From the perspective of outsiders, Ling Xiao was using violence to wake Murong Fu up.
However, Ling Xiao was very clear in his heart. Murong Fu was lost because his body was no longer controlled by his thoughts, so he had to first restore the control over his body.
Suddenly, Murong Fu raised his head. His expression was one of extreme panic as he breathed in large mouthfuls of air. Then, he stood up and hurriedly left the chess game to stand at the side.
Seeing this scene, Su Xinghe was also stunned, because the outcome was completely different from what he imagined. He was lost in thought, and if he forced himself to wake up, he would definitely die suddenly.
But seeing Murong Fu's reaction, he didn't look like a fool at all. That panicked expression and the action of distancing himself from the chess game, definitely had their own thoughts.
After calming down a bit, Murong Fu saw Ling Xiao by his side, and immediately cupped his fists. He said solemnly: "Sect Master Ling, you saved me once again!"
Ling Xiao nodded and said, "You're lucky today. If not, you can imagine the consequences yourself."
Hearing that, Murong Fu sighed heavily, he retreated to the side and did not speak anymore, obviously feeling extremely disappointed with himself.
Seeing how miserable Murong Fu's fate was, and how he had to rely on others to escape from being lost, the remaining people immediately gave up. They did not want to risk their lives to go in, what kind of person was Ling Xiao, how could he possibly come to save their little lives?
Seeing that, Su Xinghe's gaze also fell on Ling Xiao's body, his expression tensed, and prayed silently in his heart that Ling Xiao was just here to watch the show.
Ling Xiao noticed Su Xinghe's expression and said with a smile: "Mr. Su, your complexion doesn't seem to be very good."
Hearing that, Su Xinghe's face changed, he then sighed and said: "Sect Master Ling, please."
"Ancient Man Yun, you have to respect your master's orders. Since your Master issued this order, as his disciple, could it be that you have some other dissatisfaction and some bad intentions?" In order to give face to Su Xinghe, Ling Xiao did not speak very loudly.
But in Su Xinghe's eyes, it had been seen through with a single sentence, and his expression instantly became extremely unsightly.
"I just want to find a more perfect successor for the Master." Su Xinghe tried to explain.
Hearing that, Ling Xiao just smiled, then picked up a chess piece, and gently put it down.
Seeing this, Su Xinghe also retracted his emotions and began to seriously respond.
Merely by meeting Ling Xiao's eyes, Su Xinghe knew that he was a thorny character and from Ling Xiao's eyes, he could see boundless confidence, as if everything in this game was within Ling Xiao's grasp.
"Come, let me see if you can really break it. Or is it like Murong Fu, who is only putting on an act!" Su Xinghe roared angrily in his heart, because that imposing aura of Ling Xiao's was just too oppressive.
Therefore, after he woke up, he quickly escaped from the chessboard. However, when he saw Ling Xiao sitting on the table, he was actually a little curious in his heart, wondering what kind of ability Ling Xiao actually had, and wondered if he could really solve the puzzle that Wu Ya had spent his entire life to create.
"Pah!" The fourth time Ling Xiao landed, Su Xinghe was stunned. He could not believe the result before his eyes.
Ling Xiao only took four steps to unlock the trap Su Xinghe had set up.
"Mr. Su, please focus." Ling Xiao reminded.
Su Xinghe regained his senses and focused his mind, preparing to use this precious chess game to surround and kill Ling Xiao.
After that, the scene turned silent, with only the sound of people landing.
But as time passed, Ling Xiao's movements became slower and slower, as if every time he fell, he would face a huge choice.
This time, even those people who did not understand chess knew that Ling Xiao had the advantage.
When Murong Fu, who was originally hiding in the distance and watching, saw Ling Xiao's elusive fall, he became infatuated again. Moreover, the closer he looked, the closer he got to the chess set.
