Chapter 631
Emperor Xin and Qin Fuguang sat opposite each other, a chessboard placed between them. Their eyes were fixed on the crisscrossing black and white pieces, as if time had stood still at that moment.
Emperor Xin held a white piece tightly in his hand, hesitant to place it. His brow furrowed slightly, as if he were deeply considering his next move. Meanwhile, Qin Fuguang appeared unusually calm and composed, quietly awaiting Emperor Xin's decision without a trace of impatience.
After a long while, Emperor Xin finally made up his mind and gently placed the white piece on the chessboard. In Qin Fuguang's view, this placement of the piece was undoubtedly a dead end.
"Have you given up resistance?" Qin Fuguang raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, as if he was not surprised by Emperor Xin's move.
However, Emperor Xin did not respond to Qin Fuguang's words. He just smiled and looked at him, with a hint of imperceptible cunning in his eyes.
Qin Fuguang saw this and said nothing more. He picked up the black piece in his hand and prepared to place it. Just as his hand was about to touch the chessboard, he suddenly changed his mind and placed the black piece in a position that was completely unexpected by Emperor Xin.
Emperor Xin's expression changed slightly. He obviously hadn't expected Qin Fuguang to do something like this. However, he quickly regained his composure and a smile appeared on his face again.
"Some of your little movements still didn't escape my eyes," Di Xin said slowly, "The slight curve of your lips has betrayed your true thoughts. However, this move of yours did surprise me a little, but it was also within my expectations."
Qin Fuguang's heart tightened when he heard Emperor Xin's words, and a chill ran down his spine. He secretly regretted that his previous performance had revealed a flaw and that the old fox Emperor Xin had seen through him.
However, Qin Fuguang was not defeated by this minor setback. He quickly adjusted his mindset and focused even more intently on the next chess game. He knew that in this match with Emperor Xin, any small mistake could lead to a complete loss, so he had to be doubly careful.
Meanwhile, at the foot of the mountain at Pangu Base, Hua Yu and Zhang Qiling were also immersed in a unique chess match. However, unlike the match between Qin Fuguang and Di Xin, Hua Yu and Zhang Qiling were not directly engaging in a duel. Instead, they stood behind Hei Xia Zi and Xie Yuchen, respectively, watching the two men's duel.
Just as Hua Yu and Zhang Qiling were engrossed in the chess game, an unfamiliar voice suddenly rang out from the courtyard. Like a bolt from the blue, it instantly alerted Hua Yu and Zhang Qiling. Without hesitation, they shielded Xie Yuchen behind them, while Zhang Qiling silently pulled Hei Xia Zi to his side.
Hei Xiazi looked at Zhang Qiling, standing shoulder to shoulder with him, and a thousand horses raced through his heart. He couldn't understand how he had been so inexplicably dragged into this turmoil. Moreover, seeing Zhang Qiling's fearful expression, Hei Xiazi didn't dare to neglect him in the slightest. He could only stand beside him with a bitter face, secretly groaning inwardly.
"Long time no see! The cubs of Hongjun and Luohou, and the cub of Zuqi!" Pangu stood in the courtyard with a happy smile on his face. He opened his arms and breathed in the fresh air around him, as if he wanted to take everything in the world into his arms.
"Ah! It's been a long time since I looked at the sky carefully!" Pangu sighed, his voice echoing in the air with a hint of vicissitudes and emotion.
Hua Yu and Zhang Qiling stood not far away, staring intently at Pangu, their hearts filled with vigilance. Although they were deeply puzzled by what the man said, they also felt a biting chill emanating from him, which made them shudder.
"I've been sealed for so long, and I have to thank you two for all your hard work!" Pangu suddenly laughed out loud, his laughter echoing in the yard, making people's hair stand on end. "Finally, you have removed the mountain that was pressing on me!"
Hua Yu and Zhang Qiling exchanged glances, each seeing fear and confusion in the other's eyes. What was Pangu talking about? Hadn't he always been there? Why did he say they had unlocked the seal on him?
"Perhaps, when we meet next time, I will show mercy and let you go!" Pangu's laughter stopped abruptly, and his eyes were as sharp as torches, staring straight at Hua Yu and Zhang Qiling, as if he could see through the fear in their hearts.
After saying this, Pangu turned into a wisp of black smoke and quickly left the courtyard, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Hua Yu and Zhang Qiling stared at the direction Pangu had left, unable to recover for a long time. Although Pangu had already left, they did not immediately drop their vigilance. After all, no one knew if this madman would suddenly return with a surprise attack.
