Chapter 1008: Chapter 1008: He Honestly Left, Isn’t He Wonderful? (2nd Update) Chapter 1008: Chapter 1008: He Honestly Left, Isn’t He Wonderful? (2nd Update) At that incredible moment,
Mr. Xue sat leisurely in the small courtyard of the inn, savoring his tea.
When Zhuge Xuanqing walked in, he didn’t even lift his head but simply said indifferently, “Take a seat wherever you like!”
Zhuge Xuanqing hesitated slightly before sitting down next to Xue An.
Xue An smiled and handed over a cup of tea, “Try it, it’s freshly brewed and tastes good!”
Zhuge Xuanqing took a sip and almost spat it out, “Why is there salt in this tea?”
“Not just salt, there’s also scallion and ginger! It’s a pity there are no jujubes, or else it would taste even better!” Xue An stated blandly.
Zhuge Xuanqing’s eyes widened, “Can tea even be drunk like this?”
“At first, I couldn’t get used to it either, but someone told me that after drinking it a few times, I would come to like this flavor. On this point, he didn’t deceive me!” Xue An said with a half-smile.
However, at this moment, Zhuge Xuanqing couldn’t focus on these details. All her attention was drawn to the great battle three days later and her brother’s safety.
“Mr. Xue, do you really think my brother will be alright? Will that Tian Zhao Chess Sage take the opportunity to kill my brother?” Zhuge Xuanqing expressed her worries with concern.
Xue An smiled upon hearing this, “Do you know why I spoke like that in the end?”
Zhuge Xuanqing shook her head, puzzled by this matter.
If one really wanted to negotiate with this Tian Zhao Chess Sage for a person’s release, why make it public?
If the Tian Zhao Chess Sage was driven to desperation, wouldn’t it indirectly lead to her brother’s death?
As if reading her thoughts, Xue An said, “I understand your concerns, but on the contrary, by saying so, your brother will be safer!”
“Oh?” Zhuge Xuanqing looked at Xue An with a face full of surprise.
Xue An stood up and said calmly, “You really don’t understand people like the Tian Zhao Chess Sage!”
“He must have reached his position today stepping over countless corpses. One could say that his throne of Chess Sage is completely stained red with blood!”
Hearing this, Zhuge Xuanqing recalled some rumors and nodded slightly.
“In the eyes of these so-called strong individuals, nothing is more important than their own status and life! Besides those, everything else is expendable, and if they have to choose between the two, they will definitely choose to save their own lives!”
“Because for them, as long as they are alive, they can have everything! In the face of life, righteousness, face, and even deep-seated hatred, they can ignore it all!”
With that, Xue An turned to face Zhuge Xuanqing, “And everything I’ve shown now makes him wary of me; without understanding my background, to increase his bargaining chips, he will definitely keep your brother alive!”
Gradually, clarity emerged in Zhuge Xuanqing’s eyes.
She was a very intelligent woman but had lacked someone to guide her. As soon as Xue An casually explained it, she immediately understood.
“So that’s it. Mr. Xue, on behalf of my brother and the entire Zhuge Family, I thank you profoundly for your great kindness!” Zhuge Xuanqing stood up, bowing deeply with great respect.
Xue An neither dodged nor evaded but accepted her bow openly.
“But, Mr. Xue, I’ve already sent a message to my family, but it will take them at least five days to get here. You…”
Zhuge Xuanqing’s words were hesitant, yet the implication was clear.
Even though Xue An was powerful, he was after all facing a whole Starry Domain’s worth of strong warriors, and that Tian Zhao Chess Sage was an old monster who had occupied the leading position in the chess world for hundreds of years.
Facing such a drastic disparity in strength, could Xue An really manage?
Xue An chuckled upon hearing this, “Don’t worry, I know exactly what I’m doing!”
Zhuge Xuanqing originally wanted to say more, but seeing Xue An’s expression, he eventually swallowed his words.
Then, he remembered something and said in a grave voice, “Mr. Xue, you actually shouldn’t have let the people of the Cai Family go!”
“Oh? Why?”
“You may not know this, but the Cai Family has an extremely bad reputation in the realm of strategic games, and now that you’ve suppressed them like this, they will surely bear a grudge. It’s fine as long as you are here to suppress them, but I fear that once you leave, the Cai Family might…”
Zhuge Xuanqing’s concerns were not unfounded.
The reputation of the Cai Family was even worse than Zhuge Xuanqing had described–tenfold worse.
One could say their reputation was thoroughly sullied.
And now, after this ordeal, the Cai Family clearly couldn’t stand on their feet in foreign domains anymore; they might very well throw themselves completely into the embrace of the Tian Zhao Star Domain.
That’s why Zhuge Xuanqing felt it was inappropriate for Xue An to let them go.
Xue An smiled upon hearing this, “Your worry is quite reasonable, but who said I let them go?”
“Hm?” Zhuge Xuanqing was taken aback.
Xue An looked up at the distant horizon and said indifferently, “I guess it’s about time!”
Zhuge Xuanqing also followed Xue An’s gaze toward the distance, but she saw nothing, leaving her utterly perplexed.
But she dared not ask more, so after sitting for a moment, she stood up and took her leave.
Watching the young girl’s departing silhouette, Xue An filled another cup of tea, took a sip, and then slightly frowned.
“Zhuge, old man, no wonder even your descendant finds this tea hard to swallow; even after drinking it for so long, I still find it hard to stomach!”
Speaking, Xue An’s lips curved into a smile, “But the name you chose for your descendant is quite intriguing! I wonder what you would think if you heard it!”
“And also, this time I just happened to pass by and lent a hand to your descendant. I wonder how you will thank me?”
Xue An said softly, his eyes brimming with amusement.
Meanwhile.
In the Starry Sky, only tens of thousands of miles away from Moon View Star.
The Flying Boat of the Cai Family gradually came to a stop.
The Patriarch of the Cai Family looked out the porthole at the starry sky with a somber expression.
“Family Head, the eldest young master’s soul has regained consciousness!” someone reported.
Then a sphere of light floated in the air.
“Father, this man surnamed Xue is simply too arrogant. You must stand up for me!” Cai Yongxin’s voice emerged from the sphere of light.
The Patriarch of the Cai Family sneered coldly, “Don’t worry, my son. Although this guy is formidable, he’s not without flaws. For example, he actually let us go! It shows he is a man very vain of reputation!”
“Now that our Cai Family has no way out, I’ve decided to head to the Tian Zhao Star now and seek refuge under the Grandmaster of Chess. Only he can restrain this man!”
Cai Yongxin exclaimed excitedly, “Father, it’s great that you think this way! Let’s go now!”
But just as the Flying Boat was preparing to change course toward the Tian Zhao Star, a faint sigh came from the void.
“Wouldn’t it have been nice if he had just honestly left?”
