Chapter 95

"Please!"

Xue Xue Muhua invited Dali Duan Yu to sit, and immediately, Dali Duan Yu and Mr. Congbian began to battle on the chessboard.

As the Prince of Dali, Dali Duan Yu didn't like practicing martial arts while in the palace, but he had dabbled in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, so he went back and forth with the "Clever Debater" Su Su Xinghe, and for a while, it was hard to tell who was better.

Unfortunately, this endgame was always favorable to Su Su Xinghe. Dali Duan Yu gradually fell into a disadvantage. He, who had a smile on his face at the beginning, couldn't laugh later. Finally, after Su Su Xinghe blocked another large piece of his chess pieces, he smiled reluctantly and then cupped his hands to admit defeat.

"Senior's chess skills are superb, this junior admires you. I cannot solve this Precious Chess Game!"

"The Precious Chess Game is a layout in Go deliberately designed to make things difficult for opponents, usually only between ten or so pieces to forty or fifty pieces. However, this Precious Chess Game has at least two hundred pieces. Young Master Dali Duan being able to play eighteen moves is already commendable!" Xue Xue Muhua explained from the side.

Su Su Xinghe was pretending to be deaf and dumb at this time, so he didn't speak. Seeing Dali Duan Yu cup his hands, he also nodded to signal.

"The Star-Constellation Old Immortal, his magic power is boundless, his supernatural powers are vast, his dharma carriage arrives in the Central Plains!"

Suddenly, a noisy sound came, and then a group of people in the distance carried a sedan chair up the mountain. Sitting on the sedan chair was an old man with white hair, waving a goose-feather fan.

"Brother-in-law, it's Ding Chunqiu!" A'Zi whispered a reminder.

The old scoundrel is truly thick-skinned and shameless. Are the people he recruited disciples or lackeys? The flattery is something else.

"It's Ding Chunqiu!" Many others also recognized Ding Chunqiu.

"Senior Brother Su, long time no see. You've been pretending to be deaf and dumb for so many years; I wonder why you've set up the Precious Chess Game again and invited so many heroes and heroines to come? Could it be to deal with me? Is the Dali Duan family of Dali going to take the lead?"

"I just received an invitation to participate in the Precious Chess Game, purely to exchange chess skills. However, I have to admit defeat in this regard!"

Dali Duan Yu explained. The grudge between Ding Chunqiu and Su Su Xinghe was not yet clear, so he didn't dare to get involved rashly.

"Senior Brother Su, you must know that playing with things ruins one's ambition. Even if your chess skills are the best in the world, so what!"

Hearing Dali Duan Yu's disguised concession, Ding Chunqiu was very satisfied and mocked Su Su Xinghe again.

"Ding Chunqiu, you betrayed your master and destroyed your ancestors, and you have done many evil things. Do you still have the face to see my master?" Xue Xue Muhua said angrily.

"Hahaha, Xue Xue Muhua, you are just a discarded disciple expelled from the sect. What face do you have to talk about me?"

Ding Chunqiu wasn't angry either, because he felt the advantage was with him. Although there were many people on Mount Leigu Mountain, they were all worthless rabble, and he didn't take them to heart.

"Junior Sister, what do you want to do?" Yue Buqun pulled back Ning Zhongze, who wanted to step forward.

"This Ding Chunqiu practices poison arts, has a vicious heart, and does all kinds of evil. Meeting him today, I naturally want to act on behalf of heaven!" Ning Zhongze said seriously.

"You're crazy. Although Ding Chunqiu is only at the peak of Xiantian, his poison arts are something no one dares to provoke; even a Grandmaster can exchange a few moves with him. There are so many fellow Jianghu people here; naturally, they will take the lead. Why should we meddle in other people's business!" Yue Buqun lowered his voice and said.

"Senior Brother, you've changed. You are the Gentleman Sword; how can you shrink back and be timid when you encounter things!" Ning Zhongze said with disappointment.

"I have changed. I am not only the Gentleman Sword but also the Sect Master of the Huashan Sect. I must preserve my useful body so that I can find a way to protect Huashan. Otherwise, if we die, Zuo Zuo Lengchan will definitely annex the Huashan Sect, and Huashan will cease to exist from then on. In that case, what face would we have to see the ancestors of Huashan below!"

Yue Buqun said coldly. The strength of Zuo Zuo Lengchan and Songshan was increasing day by day, causing him to become more and more repressed and extreme.

"Grandfather, shall we shoot him with the Black Blood Divine Needle? He laughs so annoyingly!" Qu Qu Feiyan shook her head and said.

"Bai Feifei, are you trying to make your grandfather lose his life here? Grandfather is no match for Ding Chunqiu!" Qu Yang said helplessly.

Although his Black Blood Divine Needle was sinister and poisonous, compared to Ding Chunqiu, it was like a minor witch meeting a major witch.

"It's hateful. If Brother Lin Fan were here, he would definitely be able to deal with this annoying old guy Ding Chunqiu!" Qu Qu Feiyan muttered to herself.

"Ding Chunqiu, you old thing, are you going to play the Precious Chess Game or not? If not, get down; don't lose face up there!"

With Lin Fan backing her up, A'Zi was no longer afraid of Ding Chunqiu at all.

"It's Brother Lin Fan, Sister Huang Rong, and the others! Grandfather, let's go over quickly!"

Qu Qu Feiyan looked in the direction of the voice, discovered Lin Fan and his group, and hurriedly pulled Qu Yang toward them.

"It's Young Master Lin!"

Ning Zhongze and Yue Yue Lingshan were also very happy to see Lin Fan.

They had arrived at Mount Leigu Mountain early and were standing relatively far forward. Lin Fan and his group had arrived later and were standing in the corner on the outermost periphery, so they hadn't discovered Lin Fan's group before.

But as A'Zi spoke, attracting everyone's attention, Lin Fan's group was exposed to everyone's eyes.

"Hiss, so many beauties. Such appearance and posture, they are truly fairies descending to earth. What virtue and ability does this pretty boy have to be accompanied by so many peerless beauties?"

Everyone discussed it one after another; the women around Lin Fan were all national beauties, simply making others envious.

"Little A'Zi, so it's you. You stole my Divine Wood King Tripod, yet you still dare to appear in front of me!" Ding Chunqiu stared at A'Zi and said.

"Why wouldn't I dare to appear? My brother-in-law said that you, Ding Chunqiu, are just worthless rabble, and even dogs wouldn't practice your Transforming Power Great Technique. What do you have to be proud of?" A'Zi shook her head and provoked him.

"Brother-in-law? When did you get a sister, and when did you get a brother-in-law?" Ding Chunqiu was a bit surprised.

Then he looked Lin Fan up and down. A'Zi was usually scared to death of him, but now she dared to talk to him like this; presumably, this brother-in-law gave her the confidence.

"Who is your Excellency?"

"Brother Lin Fan, Sister Huang Rong, Bai Feifei is here!" Qu Qu Feiyan ran to Lin Fan and the others in one breath, raised her head, and said happily.

"Bai Feifei, it's you. Come over quickly!"

Huang Rong took Qu Qu Feiyan's hand and went behind Lin Fan to whisper. The person opposite was Ding Chunqiu; there was no guarantee he wouldn't take action against a child.

"You are Lin Fan, Young Master Master Tianji Lin Fan?"

Ding Chunqiu's expression changed. The recently popular Young Master Master Tianji in the Jianghu—even the Old Man Master Tianji had spoken out, saying he was inferior to him; his prestige was unparalleled for a time.

"Scared, aren't you? Hurry up and kneel down to kowtow to my brother-in-law. My brother-in-law might still spare you!" A'Zi said triumphantly.

"A joke! I, Ding Chunqiu, have walked the Jianghu for many years and have never been afraid of anyone. So what if you are Young Master Master Tianji? Once you provoke me, I will kill you regardless. A'Zi, you'd better hand over the Divine Wood King Tripod; that way I might still spare you!"

Although Ding Chunqiu's expression was ugly, with so many Jianghu people on Mount Leigu Mountain, how could he easily admit defeat? So his mouth was very hard.

"Rong'er, wearing this Tongxi Earth Dragon Pill on your body can avoid all poisons. Go and test his weight!"
