Chapter 1014: Chapter 114: The Mystery Unveiled (First Update) Chapter 1014: Chapter 114: The Mystery Unveiled (First Update) After a deathly silence, the room exploded in an uproar.

“What? Tian Zhao, the Chess Grandmaster, is actually dead? How is that possible?” someone expressed disbelief.

“But what he said doesn’t seem to be without reason, because in the past hundred years, this Grandmaster has never shown his face in public!” someone said with a grave expression.

“Then if he’s not the Chess Grandmaster, who could he be?” another person asked with confusion.

“Yes! With his shocking cultivation level, even if he had fallen, he couldn’t have died without a sound, right? Who exactly is this person?”

This question emerged in everyone’s minds.

After a long silence, a snicker came from inside the chess pavilion.

“It’s almost convincing what you’re saying. Indeed, I’m unable to leave this place at the moment, but that’s because I’m in the midst of cultivating a special technique, so my physical body is temporarily immobilized! And Mr. Xue, don’t think that you’ve won against me!”

“This chess pavilion is a result of my countless efforts. If I don’t wish to come out, no one in the world could open it! Leave at once, and on the day I emerge, your life may be spared. Otherwise, you’ll face my relentless wrath!”

These words were spoken with righteousness, making many chess masters believe them.

However, Xue An’s mouth curled into a cold smirk, “You’re still so defiant when death’s upon you, and this game has been going on for far too long. I’ve lost all interest in playing along with you!”

“You… what do you intend to do?” The voice inside the chess pavilion sounded panicked.

“What do I intend to do? Heh, naturally… to take over this Remnant Chess Peak!”

As he spoke, Xue An’s eyes narrowed slightly, and his Divine Sense, as vast and majestic as the Starry Sky, suddenly unfolded and enveloped the entire Remnant Chess Peak.

“Impossible, how can you possess such a powerful Divine Sense?” The voice inside the pavilion finally became utterly frantic.

“Is it really impossible? With your narrow vision, you dare to call yourself a Chess Grandmaster? How ludicrous!” Xue An said coldly.

At the same time, all the chess path cultivators in the sky, whether from Tian Zhao or from other domains, were startled by this Divine Sense and retreated a hundred zhang away.

Within the chess pavilion, the voice shouted boldly but with inner trepidation, “Who on earth are you?”

Xue An smiled slightly, “I am Xue An! But I’m not at all pleased to meet you!”

With that, Xue An casually pointed towards the chess pavilion and said softly, “Open.”

Boom!

The invincible radiance on top of the chess pavilion instantly dissipated, and the pavilion began to crumble and shatter, turning into dust within moments.

When the scene inside the chess pavilion was revealed, the crowd couldn’t help but exclaim in shock.

“My God! What on earth is that?”

For on a meditation cushion, the once Tian Zhao Chess Grandmaster sat with eyes tightly closed, having been dead for quite some time.

Yet half of this Grandmaster’s body was infested and possessed by another person, growing another head on its shoulder.

This grotesque and terrifying scene horrified everyone.

Then, an elderly cultivator recognized the person and exclaimed, “Isn’t that Huo Geng, the chess slave who used to be by the Grandmaster’s side?”

“That’s right, it’s him! It was rumored that he was the Grandmaster’s most trusted chess slave, but he was believed to have died a hundred years ago from demonic possession! Who thought he hadn’t died at all!”

Xue An said indifferently, “Of course he didn’t die. Back then, although he succumbed to demonic possession, when the Grandmaster was about to rescue him, Huo Geng took advantage of his vulnerability, murdered his mentor, and seized his body. Am I right, Huo Geng?”

Xue An’s words shocked everyone.

This Huo Geng, exposed under everyone’s gaze, had a ferocious expression. “Xue An, what grudge do I have with you that you target me time and again? What does this matter have to do with you?”

“No grudge, but since I’ve come across it, I naturally have to intervene!” said Xue An as he looked toward the long deceased Tian Zhao Chess Saint, his eyes revealing a hint of admiration.

“Huo Geng, your calculations were indeed meticulous, and even your descent into madness might have been a trap you set intentionally. But being too clever by half, how could you not have anticipated that in his final moment, Tian Zhao Chess Saint would have a sudden epiphany and, in order to restrain you, willingly self-destructed his soul, leaving you in this state of being neither dead nor alive, neither human nor ghost?”

Despite Tian Zhao Chess Saint having passed away a century ago, Xue An was still able to discern the clues from back then.

At this point, Huo Geng had also completely let go of all reservations. His half-dead, half-alive body swayed unsteadily, and his face showed a ferocious and fierce expression.

“You’re right! But can you blame me for all this? Blame it on that stubborn old man who clung to the laughable rules of the chess path. If it weren’t for his stubbornness, by now, I would have already united the realms of chess! Would it be your turn to spout nonsense here?”

His words caused a stir among the crowd.

The local chess masters of Tian Zhao awoke from their dream.

For the past hundred years, Tian Zhao Chess Saint seemed like a completely changed person, albeit secluded in the Broken Chess Peak, he covertly manipulated numerous forces within the Tian Zhao Star Domain to expand outward, leading to endless bloodshed.

This also caused a lot of dissatisfaction among the chess masters of the Tian Zhao Star Domain, who believed that the venerable Chess Saint had grown old and strangely changed in temperament.

But now it seemed that Huo Geng was the instigator!

Many chess masters who had suffered greatly were fiery-eyed, roaring with anger.

“You wretched chess servant, not content with killing the Chess Saint, you’ve also stirred up so many disputes! You deserve a thousand deaths!”

“Flay him alive!”

“Yes, flay him alive!”

Amidst the outraged crowd, Huo Geng laughed heartily. “Xue An, if you’ve got the guts, kill me! Someone will naturally seek revenge for me!”

His voice was full of arrogance.

“Someone will seek revenge for you?” Xue An said indifferently.

“Yes, and it will be an existence you can’t afford to provoke!” Huo Geng said with a proud look on his face.

The entire place fell into dead silence, with many faces showing seriousness.

But Xue An merely smiled faintly, then in a flash appeared in front of Huo Geng and grabbed him by the neck.

“Do you know? There is no one in this world I cannot afford to provoke!”

A flicker of fear appeared in Huo Geng’s eyes, but he still forced a smile and said, “You are scared!”

“Scared?” Xue An said with a playful smile, then leaned down and whispered in Huo Geng’s ear, “If I’m not mistaken, the existence you claim I can’t afford to provoke should be the Tian Zhao Deities, right? How does it feel to be a lapdog for the deities?”

“You…” Huo Geng’s eyes gradually widened in shock as he looked at Xue An.

“No need to look at me like that. The truth is, I came here to find those deities! So… I suppose I should thank you!”

Feeling the chilling murderous intent in Xue An’s words, Huo Geng finally experienced deep terror.

“Don’t kill me. If you kill me, you won’t be able to find Zhuge Banzang!”

Zhuge Xuanqing was taken aback when he heard this and also hurriedly shouted, “Mr. Xue…”

Xue An smiled, “Do you think, in front of me, you still have a chance to bargain?”
