Chapter 982 - Chapter 982 Chapter 982 Zhuge Xuanqing (5th Update)
Chapter 982: Chapter 982: Zhuge Xuanqing (5th Update) Chapter 982: Chapter 982: Zhuge Xuanqing (5th Update) The Trans-ocean Starship also docked atop one of the planets, and when they descended from the starship, the enormous landing pad was already crowded with many people.
Of course, “people” is a loose term here, as many among them couldn’t really be considered human.
Like that mechanical-like creature, it wasn’t remotely human at all.
An Yan just had his eyes wide open this time.
Ever since he came down, his eyes never stopped roaming, intrigued by everything.
Of course, most of those here were Cultivators from the Human Clan.
After all, no other species, no matter how prolific or powerful, could compare to the favored Humans in their prime.
And among these Human Clan Cultivators, there was a clear divide.
Those short in stature, stomping around in wooden clogs with arrogance plastered on their faces, clustered together. They judged every Cultivator that came by and frequently let out mocking laughter.
Faced with such outrageously rude behavior, these Cultivators could only pass by with looks of indignation, and not one dared to even raise their head to make eye contact.
Xue An saw all of this unfold, yet the smile on his face didn’t waver in the slightest.
But Gong Changyue’s expression wasn’t nearly as pleasant; he walked with his head lowered, seemingly trying to avoid something.
However, such actions were utterly futile in front of a Divine Thought Cultivator.
The group of Cultivators in wooden clogs whispered among themselves for a moment and then burst out laughing, after which a Cultivator clad in scarlet robes walked over here with a face full of arrogance.
Gong Changyue’s face went pale, and in a low voice, he said, “Mr. Xue, let’s leave quickly!”
“Leave? Why should we leave?” replied Xue An with a smile.
In the time it took to have this exchange, the scarlet-robed Cultivator had approached and arrogantly said to Gong Changyue, “Gong Changyue, I didn’t expect you to actually dare to come this time! What, do you think you didn’t lose badly enough last time?”
Gong Changyue’s complexion was ashen, but he mustered the courage to raise his head, “Di Yuanlong, what do you want?”
“What do I want?” Di Yuanlong let out a cold laugh, then turned and glanced, “What? This time the Gong Family didn’t even send an elder, just sent two pieces of trash like you over?”
“Does this mean the Gong Family has completely given up? Ha, if that’s the case, I advise you to just head back home as soon as possible, save the embarrassment of making a fool of yourself at the chessboard. After all, last time even the elders of your Gong Family returned defeated without a single victory!”
His words were incredibly sharp and biting.
The Gong siblings’ faces were both flushed with anger, especially Gong Changyue’s.
He was, after all, a chess master who had earned his right to compete, and now he was subjected to such humiliation, and even his own family wasn’t spared; one could only imagine the rage in his heart.
But soon enough, his expression dimmed again.
Because what Di Yuanlong said was indeed a fact.
In the world of chess, weakness is the original sin.
If you’re weak, you deserve to die!
Hence, he couldn’t even retort.
Just as he was engulfed by despair,
A slender and strong hand patted him lightly on the shoulder, followed by a voice, “Chess Master Changyue, I remember you said you wanted to achieve a good ranking in this competition to prove yourself! How could you forget so quickly?”
Gong Changyue trembled, then raised his head and stared blankly at Xue An.
Xue An smiled back at him.
At this moment, Di Yuanlong frowned, “And who are you?”
Xue An glanced at him and smiled lightly, “Me? I’m here to compete as well! I heard that the chess path in your Tian Zhao Star Domain is quite good, and there’s even someone called the Youth Chess King, so I thought, why don’t I give it a try and see if I can win a title like Chess King or Chess Sage or something?”
This statement stunned everyone around.
Di Yuanlong was even more shocked and then burst into rage, “How audacious, to speak to Lord Jing so disrespectfully! What rank of chess master are you?”
Xue An smiled slightly, “Sorry, I just got off the starship and haven’t had time to take the exam, so I have no rank right now!”
The moment these words came out.
The whole place first fell silent.
Then a burst of raucous laughter erupted.
“This is the best joke I’ve heard all year, a guy without even a rank dares to challenge Master Jing Tianrui of the Tian Zhao Chess Academy! Really clueless thinking!” sneered a Tian Zhao chess player with a face full of scorn.
“Alas, the Gong Family used to be considered a giant in the path of chess, but how has their heir become increasingly incompetent, even associating with such an ignorant and conceited person?” a chess player who knew the Gong siblings shook his head and sighed.
Even the Gong siblings themselves were stunned silly by Xue An’s “bold and vigorous” words.
Especially Gong Xueman, who showed thick disdain in her eyes, believing that Mr. Xue, her savior, was good in every way except his penchant for boasting.
At this moment, Di Yuanlong laughed in extreme anger, “Tsk tsk, what an eye-opener indeed! Gong Changyue, are you really thinking of turning the tables with such a guy this time?”
This questioning once again elicited laughter of derision from those around them.
Gong Changyue was at a loss for words and had no idea how to respond.
Hu Ying, however, had a look of indignation on her face.
The thing she hated most was when people doubted her invincible Brother Xue, so she was about to burst.
But at that moment.
A commotion stirred from the back of the crowd.
“It’s Miss Zhuge, Miss Zhuge is here!”
“Miss Xuanqing has arrived!”
Amidst these respectful tumults, the crowd automatically parted to create a path.
Even Di Yuanlong, who was full of arrogance, restrained his pride and moved aside.
From a distance, one could see a tall woman dressed in black, her slim figure accentuated by the dark attire, with a black chess bag slung over her shoulder that stood a foot taller than her.
Despite her beautiful appearance, her expression was extremely indifferent, and it was only in her lovely eyes that there was a shining light that made people dare not look directly at her.
From afar, she resembled an assassin walking out from the night.
This woman made her way through the crowd, and everywhere she went, people bowed their heads.
The calls of “Miss Xuanqing, Miss Zhuge” were incessant.
But the woman seemed deaf to these calls and walked straight up to Gong Changyue, stopping in her tracks.
“Gong Changyue!”
Her voice was crisp and clear.
Since this woman appeared in the crowd, Gong Changyue’s gaze had not left her, but now that she stood before him, he dared not look up and only nodded in response, “Miss Zhuge!”
Indeed.
The arrival was none other than Zhuge Xuanqing, whom Gong Changyue had long thought of day and night.
Zhuge Xuanqing silently watched Gong Changyue until after a few moments, when she finally said indifferently, “I didn’t expect that you would really come alone this time!”
Gong Changyue revealed a bitter smile, about to say something.
But Zhuge Xuanqing turned her head to look at Xue An and said with an icy voice, “I heard everything you just said!”
“So what?” Xue An replied with an amused smile, his eyes full of interest.
“All I can tell you is that in the path of chess, the strong are revered, and I have seen many arrogant fools like you!”
As she spoke, a touch of coldness flashed in Zhuge Xuanqing’s eyes, “But their ultimate fate… doesn’t seem to be very good!”
