Volume 2 Chapter 54 / Chapter 141 Senior Brother, Playing with People's Minds
Exiting the main hall, Ye Anping picked up the pace, leading his junior sister and the others quickly along the paths of the inner mansion. Before long, they passed through the main hall and arrived at the garden inside the mansion.
Feng Yudie looked around, but there was no sign of Li Feng, not even his aura.
“Is this the place?”
“Yes, right here.”
Ye Anping replied, then took out a lantern from his storage pouch and walked into the pavilion in the garden, raising the lantern slightly.
On the stone table in the pavilion lay a Go board, with black and white stones placed on both sides, presenting an unfinished game.
Beside it, Pei Lengxue examined the game for a moment and asked, “Husband, this is already connected with seven stones.”
Ye Anping couldn’t help but laugh at her words, thinking of explaining, but before he could, Feng Yudie approached and said with hands on her hips, “Junior Sister Pei, this is Go, not Gomoku, and it’s an unfinished game— Let me see— Here! Aren’t I cool!?”
Ding!
Feng Yudie picked up a black stone and forcefully placed it in a corner of the board. However, in the next moment, a spiritual light burst forth from the board, enveloping her entire body.
Feng Yudie immediately started dancing around, “Ah?! What’s this thing?!”
Ye Anping was speechless, but also quite surprised. This girl actually managed to hit the right spot without relying on Xiaotian. He said, “Don’t go anywhere after you go in, wait for us—”
“Huh?”
Before Ye Anping could finish his sentence, Feng Yudie and Xiaotian’s figures were immediately enveloped by a burst of light from the chessboard, and with a swoosh, they disappeared into the black stone she had placed.
Ye Anping took out a white stone from each of the baskets on both sides and handed one to his junior sister.
“Junior Sister, you place this here.”
“Okay.”
Pei Lengxue nodded, picked up the stone, and placed it on the board. Like Feng Yudie, she was also sucked into the board.
After waiting for a moment, Ye Anping took another black stone and handed it to Zhuang Hu, while pointing to a position on the board.
“Big Brother Zhuang… here.”
Zhuang Hu took the stone, glanced at the board, and said, “This is like a maze, how do you know the entry point?”
“How could I not?”
“…”
Zhuang Hu pursed his lips, said nothing more, and placed the stone, entering into the light along with it.
After he entered as well, Ye Anping picked up a white stone that belonged to him, looked up at the sky for a moment, as if searching for something, but found nothing.
“Well, it should be here.”
Ye Anping murmured to himself, placed his white stone on the board, and like Zhuang Hu and the others, he was drawn into it by the stone.
With Ye Anping’s lantern no longer illuminating the garden, silence fell once again. However, after a brief moment, a sound of tongue-clicking broke the silence once more.
A parrot wearing a miniature straw hat descended from the sky, shook its feathers slightly, and cast a sharp glance at the chessboard.
“Marvelous! Marvelous!”
After praising, it picked up a black stone from the nearby basket, placed it on the board, and transformed into a spiritual light, being drawn into the board along with the stone.
… …
In the sky, nebulae covered densely, resembling a chessboard filled with pieces, each emitting dazzling brilliance.
In the open square, paved with white jade stones, the boundary was invisible at a glance, but there was only one figure present.
This person was dressed in a white Daoist robe, sitting cross-legged, suspended in the center of the square, giving off an otherworldly aura.
However, the four blood energy spheres surrounding him were quite different from this immortal aura.
Li Feng’s eyelids twitched slightly, sensing someone entering the area, and he directly asked, “Xuanji, is it you?”
“No, that thousand years old brat is probably in the middle of her snack in her bed.”
The voice of a youth sounded behind him, and Li Feng was slightly startled. Slowly opening his eyes, his floating body turned half a circle to look behind him.
A youth wearing a straw hat and a face mask stood before him. His eyes were cold and deep, and he held a rather mediocre short spiritual sword in his hand.
Glancing at the youth’s eyes, Li Feng raised his eyebrows slightly and then burst into laughter.
“Hahaha~ Indeed, it seems like something she would do. The Chi Dragon Mansion Formation is about to be broken, countless lives will perish, and she’s still eating snack in her own room.”
“People become weirder the older they get.” on” Ye Anping shrugged slightly and countered, “Aren’t you the same?”
Li Feng shook his head slightly and replied, “You’re still young; you wouldn’t understand the difficulties of an old man like me. When the day comes that your life is about to end, you will understand how difficult it is to survive.”
“Sure.”
“Carry on…”
The smile in Li Feng’s eyes suddenly faded, and he asked, “So, a Foundation Establishment cultivator like you killed those three useless demonic cultivators in the Chi Dragon Mansion?”
“Yes.”
“That’s impressive. Not only did you kill cultivators above your realm, but you also found your way here. And despite facing a Nascent Soul cultivator, you didn’t show any signs of fear at all. Are you that old hag direct disciple?”
“If you want to think so, you can.”
“What are you planning to do now? Do you think I’m as easy to deal with as those demonic cultivators? Underestimating your opponent is not a good habit. you can’t harm me at all with that sword in your hand.”
“I’m not overestimating myself. I won’t come here without having any plan to deal with you.”
Ye Anping inserted his spiritual sword into the ground, sat down cross-legged, and continued, “Isn’t it good to do a good deed before you meet your end? Accumulate some merit to bribe the god of death to have him smoother your reincarnation?”
“I won’t comment on that, still, being lectured by a junior like you is quite unpleasant.”
“Is it?”
“Yeah.”
“Really?”
“Yeah.”
“Are you sure?”
“What do you—”
Boom!
Before Li Feng could finish his sentence, a purple spiritual longsword enveloped in lightning suddenly stabbed one of the four blood energy spheres surrounding him.
At the same time, three figures appeared out of nowhere behind and beside Li Feng.
Bang!
The collision between the blood energy sphere and the purple longsword lasted only a moment before the sphere exploded, and the longsword changed direction, aiming for the second blood energy sphere.
At the first attack, Li Feng’s attention was focused on Ye Anping, but now he reacted. He reached out his hand, and in an instant, the purple spiritual longsword flying in the air shattered into pieces, scattering on the ground and dissipating into spiritual light.
“Haaaahh” Li Feng took a deep breath and said, “Youngster, to think you are going to sneak attack a dying old man like me, where are your manners?”
“I’m sorry, I only show courtesy to those I respect!!”
Behind Li Feng, Feng Yudie frowned, gritted her teeth, mobilized the spiritual energy in her body, and her golden spiritual energy surged, condensing into a golden dragon that pounced towards Li Feng.
“Roar!”
“The Immortal Emperor Dragon Body?”
Seeing the approaching golden dragon, Li Feng’s expression remained calm. He raised his hand and waved it.
Boom!
A golden iron fist appeared out of thin air, directly hitting the dragon’s upper jaw, smashing it from mid-air to the ground, leaving a long trench on the ground.
Feng Yudie coughed up a mouthful of blood as a result.
“Cough—”
Li Feng looked at her expressionlessly. “Little lass, your dragon may be effective against Core Formation cultivators, but against me—”
Before he could finish his sentence, six icy blue sword energies followed, attacking one of the other blood energy spheres.
“This spiritual energy…”
Seeing this, Li Feng sneered disdainfully. However, the next moment, he spat out a mouthful of old blood.
“Cough— Cough—”
At the same time, thunder roared in the sky, and silver lightning suddenly struck another blood-red sphere.
Li Feng’s eye twitched, and he immediately flung his right hand. Zhuang Hu, who stood on his left side, was instantly knocked away by a burst of spiritual energy. But at the same time, Li Feng once again coughed up blood.
“Cough— Enough!! You youngsters!!”
Ye Anping narrowed his eyes and smiled, interrupting, “Li Feng, how long do you think your limited lifespan can support your willful attack? It’s time to end your temper tantrum.”
In an instant, golden light flashed on Ye Anping’s spiritual sword.
The sword energy surged like a swimming dragon.
At the same time, he sighed, “Li Feng, I have some bad news for you. Miss Li Qianjin died under the claws of those Blood spirits summoned by your formation.”
“What— Cough, cough— What did you say? This— Impossible!!!”
“Because you set up a protection formation for her, right? Heh, that formation was broken by her own blood. Li Qianjin ran out to find you, mistaking a Blood Spirit for you due to her blindness, and went up to it, only to be greeted by its gaping maw— Li Feng, you, you killed your own daughter. Li Qianjin died because of you.”
“Cough, cough, cough—”
Ye Anping waved the spiritual sword in his hand, squinting and asking, “Was a mere few years of additional lifespan worth it?”
