327 Bird of Paradise (1)
“I… I admit defeat.”
In front of the Blue Heart Loft, a disciple clenched his fists and said with his head lowered.
Mo Xia cupped his hands and said,”Thank you for letting me go, Senior Brother.””
“Wow…Junior Brother Mo is so amazing. How many consecutive wins has he won? He had only been here for a year, and there was no one else in the hall who could beat him.”
“It’s not just Senior Brother who can’t win. I heard that even his Go skills are on par with Cheng Tangtang’s.”
“What? This was too amazing, wasn’t it? Cheng Li Tang was publicly acknowledged as the strongest chess player in the sect.”
Amid the crowd’s deliberately suppressed exclamations, Mo Xia put the black pieces on the chessboard into his chess box.
Mo Xia raised his head and was about to look for his next opponent when he saw a figure walking through the crowd.
“Senior Brother?”
Mo Xia’s eyes widened. Ever since he returned from the Masked Moon Sect, Mo Xia had always wanted to find his senior brother to spar with him in chess. However, no matter if it was in the hall or in the sect, Mo Xia could not find him no matter what. It was only later that he heard that his senior brother had become the emperor.
This made Mo Xia extremely disappointed. During his time in the Masked Moon Sect, he had really learned a lot from his senior brother. However, even after learning so much, when it came to chess, he still had a feeling of admiration for his senior brother.
Mo Xia quickly squeezed out of the crowd and chased after his senior brother, but he did not see him again.
After looking around, Mo Xia’s gaze locked onto the innermost chess room.
That was the exclusive chess room of the Cheng Hall. That was the place where Senior Brother was most likely to go.
Taking a deep breath, Mo Xia took two steps forward and knocked on the door.
“What is it?” Cheng auditorium’s voice came from inside.
“Disciple Mo Xia requests an audience.”
Hearing Mo Xia’s name, Jiang Beiran, who had just dropped a white stone, thought that it had been a long time since he had seen this chess fanatic junior apprentice.
Back then, he had thought that he would inevitably have many people coming to challenge him because he had become famous for winning the championship in Go, so he had originally planned to train Mo Xia to be his shield.
However, plans could not keep up with the changes. He had just returned to the Imperial Palace of Ningdu, and he had already ascended to the throne. Naturally, Mo Xia had lost the meaning of being a tool. In addition, he had been very busy after ascending to the throne, so Jiang Beiran had forgotten about him.
As soon as Cheng auditorium finished speaking, the door was gently pushed open. Mo Xia carefully looked inside and found that her senior brother was indeed playing chess with the auditorium.
Putting away the excitement in his heart, Mo Xia cupped his hands towards Cheng Li Tang and said,””Greetings, Cheng Hall.”
“Why are you looking for me?” Cheng Li Tang asked.
“Disciple wants to ask some questions in the hall.”
“Yes.” Cheng auditorium nodded.” You can wait for a while.””
“Yes.” After replying, Mo Xia quietly stood in front of the chessboard and began to watch the battle.
Soon, half an incense’s time had passed. Mo Xia, who had been watching the battle seriously, had a feeling in his heart.
“Senior Brother definitely held back.”
When he was in the Masked Moon Sect, each of his senior brother’s pieces had given him immense pressure, especially when it came to the middle stage. Almost every piece would make him feel suffocated.
However, Mo Xia did not feel this way when he was fighting against his senior brother. It was not just because he was watching from the side and did not become his senior brother’s opponent.
‘No wonder senior brother didn’t win the auditorium. So this is the reason…’
When Cheng Tangtang placed the last piece, Mo Xia volunteered to be in charge of the number. In the end, Cheng Tangtang won by a hair’s breadth.
“The chess skills in the auditorium are really becoming more and more superb.”Jiang BeiBeiran cupped his fists.
“Hahaha, Bei Ran, you’ve been out of practice for so long, yet you’re still able to play at such a level. That’s why the younger generation is so formidable. Come, come, let’s play another round.”
Jiang Beiran looked at Mo Xia and said,”There are still disciples waiting for you in the auditorium.” ”
“Aiyoyo.” Cheng Li Tang slapped his forehead and smiled.”Look at my memory. I forgot everything when I started playing chess. Mo Xia, what do you want to ask me?”
Mo Xia quickly waved his hand.” I’m not in a hurry. Please continue.””After saying that, he began to tidy up the chessboard.
“Speaking of which, the two of you should have met on the way back to Ying Jiesai, right?”Cheng Li Tang asked as he drank his tea.
“Yes.” Jiang Beiran nodded.
“How is it? Does this little junior brother give you a lot of pressure? If you continue to relax, your chess skills will be surpassed by him sooner or later.”Cheng Tangtang laughed.
Before Jiang Beiran could reply, Mo Xia’s face had already turned red.
” Defeat senior brother? He didn’t even dare to think about it.
“Disciple also wants to spend more time on the game of Go, but I can’t play it right now and have too many things to do. I just had some free time, so I came to play with you.”
Jiang Beiran had said this sincerely. In his first few years in the sect, the most he did was play chess. Although his motive was to get some benefits from the hall master, the feelings he had cultivated were genuine. Cheng Hall had indeed taken good care of her in all aspects during this period.
Hence, when he had some free time, he came to make the old man happy.
“It’s rare for you to have such a heart.”
As the two of them spoke, the chessboard had been tidied up, and the two of them began to fight again.
Jiang Beiran only left when it was already past midnight.
After Jiang Beiran left, Cheng Lizhi wanted to ask Mo Xia again, but he realized that he was no longer in the room.
“Where is he…”
After leaving Blue Heart Loft, Jiang Beiran was about to head to Water Mirror Hall when he suddenly felt a tail trailing behind him.
