The man in black robe glanced at the chess piece, his mouth twitched slightly, and he continued to play. But after playing for a while, when he saw that the white piece had trapped him inside, he finally couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
"You've trapped a large area of your own chess pieces. See? Here." He pointed at the pile of chess pieces that the young man had placed in the corner of the chessboard. They were so dense that they blocked the way out.
"Isn't it like this? Then how do we do it?" Fengjiu asked doubtfully, but she snorted in her heart, wishing she would die of anger.
"Find a way to trap my black spots." He said after taking a deep breath.
"But what if I win?" She asked cautiously, as if he would win.
"laugh!"
The black-robed man sneered, "You? You have to win against me first!"
So, the two of them started playing again. Fengjiu played chess in a disorderly manner, placing one on the left, then one on the right, sometimes keeping them far away, and sometimes trapping her own white pieces. The man in black robe did not say anything else, but just endured and finished the game.
"I lost." Fengjiu said as she stood up.
"It's not that we lost, it's that we lost miserably." The man in black robe said, waving his hand to signal him to step aside.
At this time, the old man next to him laughed and said, "Young man, can I play a game with you?" It was obvious that the young man did not know how to play chess. He played without any rules and just placed the piece when he saw a position. He was a complete layman.
"No." He narrowed his eyes and leaned back in his chair: "Let's go see if they have made arrangements. If they have, we can go. There's no need to wait until tomorrow."
"Yes." The old man stood up and walked outside.
Fengjiu stood there, quietly without making a sound, until about half an hour later, when the four people outside came in together. After reporting to the black-robed man, the black-robed man stood up and walked out.
She followed behind, and only after she got outside did she realize that, except for some spies who were sent out to infiltrate the four major sects, all the others would be taken away together, but in batches.
Feng Jiu followed the black-robed man and the old man and left the teleportation array first. There was a flash of light, and when they felt the fluctuation of the array again, they were already standing firmly on the ground.
When she got here, she found that this was actually the back hall of a palace, and it was a palace built next to the mountain. She felt a little strange and glanced around inconspicuously, then followed the man in black robe and walked forward in an orderly manner.
This place is very large. Even though she didn't see anyone guarding the surroundings, her spiritual sense could still sense that there were many people watching in the dark. And judging from the hidden pressure and aura, they should all be cultivators at the peak of the Flying Immortal level. Among them, there were several extremely subtle auras, which she would not have been able to detect if she hadn't paid close attention.
Walking forward from the back, the person in front entered the palace, while the old man fell behind a few steps and turned around: "Number nine."
"Yes." Fengjiu looked at him.
"Since the young master has asked you to stay by his side, from now on, you will stay by his side. As a shadow guard, you generally do not need to show yourself unless it is necessary. You do not need to show yourself when you are with the young master without his order."
"Yes." she replied.
