Chapter 352 Research
Chen Yingjie played this game of chess very neatly, even trying to hide his shortcomings to the point of 90%. Otherwise, with his true level, he would have ended the battle in no time, and he and Qing Fengzi would not have been stuck in a stalemate for two cups of tea and still not decided the winner.
However, Qing Fengzi and Zhong Tai did not notice Chen Yingjie's obvious concealment of his abilities.
One was playing with him enthusiastically, while the other was watching with great interest from the side.
At this time, Chen Yingjie finally figured out the result he wanted, and his men sped up their work.
Three minutes later, all the chess pieces were in place.
Qing Fengzi and Zhong Tai glanced at the full chessboard and looked at Chen Yingjie with strange expressions.
"Draw?"
Zhong Tai's eyes widened with anger, and he slapped Chen Yingjie on the shoulder, "Boy! Did you do this on purpose? I let you win! But you ended up with a draw?! Do you look down on me?!"
Qing Fengzi beside him also frowned slightly, "Chen boy, I helped you get this opportunity because of Bai girl. Do you know how many people in the East Region are vying to be the disciple of Master Ming Jin! His weapon refining skills, even if you only learn a little bit, it will be enough for you to gain a foothold in the future!"
Bai Yaoyao looked at Chen Yingjie thoughtfully.
Chen Yingjie was slapped by Zhong Tai's big palm, and felt that his shoulder blade was about to break, but he still endured the pain and bowed to Zhong Tai and said:
“Your Excellency, please forgive me. I really hope to be accepted as your disciple, but Senior Qing Fengzi is my junior sister’s mentor and has been very kind to me. If it weren’t for his recommendation, I’m afraid I wouldn’t even be able to see your presence…”
Zhong Tai frowned and said impatiently, "Boy, stop talking nonsense. What do you want to say?"
Chen Yingjie lowered his head slightly to hide the twinkle in his eyes. "I dare not rashly get involved in the gambling game between the Venerable and Senior Qing Fengzi. A draw is the only solution I can think of..."
A strange color flashed across Zhong Tai's eyes, but his face was tense and looked a little scary. "So you gave up the chance to become my disciple!"
"No!" Chen Yingjie raised his head, looking directly at Zhong Tai with his clear eyes. "I just thought that since Your Excellency loves chess so much, he certainly wouldn't want to defeat his friend with the help of others. After all, it's more pleasant to win a game by yourself! And I just happen to have a little talent in chess, and I have accumulated a lot of ancient chess games. If Your Excellency doesn't mind, I'm willing to study with you..."
There was a sly glint in Chen Yingjie's eyes, but he stared at Zhong Tai without hesitation.
Zhong Tai opened his eyes wide and stared at Chen Yingjie for a long while. Then he laughed loudly and a big palm like an iron fist fell down!
"Okay, okay! Not bad, boy! Come, play a round with me, and show no mercy. If you beat me, I will really accept you as my disciple!"
Qing Fengzi, who was watching everything, stroked his beautiful beard with a smile, then stood up and gave up his seat.
……
Three months later, Qing Fengzi dug Bai Yaoyao out of the alchemy room.
"Let's go! The seniors from the East Region and the South have finally arrived. It's time to put an end to the matter of the Spirit Clan!"
Bai Yaoyao silently followed Qing Fengzi and set up a light of escape to the Qingyin Valley in the Lingyao Valley, which was specially prepared to entertain those senior masters.
On the way there, Qing Fengzi was still a little uneasy. Three months ago, he begged Haotian Xuanzun to send a message to those seniors in the fusion stage, and three months later they gathered in the Spirit Medicine Valley to discuss the affairs of the spirit race.
His disciple had made some preparations himself, but he was still a little worried.
After all, not all old monsters will give face to Haotian Xuanzun. If someone really takes advantage of his strength to make things difficult for Bai Yatou, Xuanzun will not really fight for her and the great cultivators of the same period!
Then, the fate of this girl...
Thinking of this, Qing Fengzi's expression became serious. He glanced at Bai Yaoyao, who was calm and composed beside him, and made a secret decision in his heart.
Qing Fengzi was a person who showed his emotions and couldn't hide his true feelings. Bai Yaoyao knew very well how solemn and worried he was, but she didn't say anything to comfort him.
After all, it was still uncertain whether these “little tricks” she had planned would actually work.
However, Bai Yaoyao was really touched by this "cheap master".
Over the past three months, Qing Fengzi had been teaching her almost hand in hand, no matter it was common techniques or his unique alchemy technique, as long as it was Bai Yaoyao's question, he would explain it to her in detail. Moreover, the elixirs from the Spiritual Medicine Valley were delivered to her residence like water. The rare elixirs that everyone outside was scrambling for were like candy beans to her, in endless supply.
So even though Bai Yaoyao knew that Qing Fengzi did this in order to help her reach the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible, Bai Yaoyao was still very grateful to Qing Fengzi.
Just as Bai Yaoyao was daydreaming, Qing Fengzi's escape light stopped.
"arrive!"
Bai Yaoyao looked down and saw the early morning sunlight shining through the thin clouds and falling on the mountains. In the valleys, streams were like white ribbons winding through the green grass and lush woods. The gurgling stream, the clear breeze, and the crisp bird calls together performed a beautiful melody.
The Qingyin Valley has beautiful scenery and abundant spiritual energy. Most importantly, it is some distance away from the other main peaks of the Lingyao Valley and is very quiet. No wonder it is used by the Lingyao Valley to entertain distinguished guests.
"Let's go! Let's go down!"
Qing Fengzi brought Bai Yaoyao and floated down from mid-air toward the open space at the bottom of the valley.
Bai Yaoyao suddenly felt her heart beating faster and couldn't help but laugh at herself.
I thought she wouldn't be nervous since she had taken multiple precautions, but her body's reaction was still very honest. It seems her mental quality still needs to be improved.
Bai Yaoyao thought about it and silently activated her life-saving skill - the injury-free shield.
Although points would flow away quickly once it was turned on, Bai Yaoyao would rather waste some points to turn on the protection in advance than be in a rush when the time comes.
After all, with the methods of these old monsters, she might be killed before she even has the chance to activate her shield!
It’s better to be careful!
Bai Yaoyao followed Qing Fengzi towards the center of the valley.
There was a pavilion there, and three people were whispering something there.
About ten feet outside the pavilion, a bald man was playing with a giant python coiled around his body. As if he noticed Bai Yaoyao's gaze, he suddenly looked up and stared at her coldly. There was a pair of green vertical pupils in his eyes. The giant python, which had been lying obediently on the man's shoulder, also raised its head high and made a low hissing sound at Bai Yaoyao.
Bai Yaoyao only felt a chill rushing from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, her whole body felt like it was falling into an ice cellar, and she couldn't help but shiver.
At this moment, Bai Yaoyao heard Qing Fengzi's very faint voice transmission.
"Don't look around! That's the Beast Taming Sect's Hui Yu Venerable! His temperament is extremely strange and unpredictable, don't mess with him casually!"
