Bold Witch, Don’T Hurt My Husband

Chapter 49: The Divine Skill

The way he spoke made him feel as if he was seeing his old drinking buddies from his past life, who would not give face unless he drank, and even if he did, they would still look down on him.

But here, he didn't dare to show off his tongue, after all, the two people in front of him were clearly senior experts. With his small stature and his wife not by his side, it was better to be cautious.

Unbeknownst to Xia Fan, the two people across from him were also quite intimidated. After all, the Chuyun Sword behind Xia Fan was staring at them, as if ready to strike with a single swing.

The two of them never dared to look at the Chuyun Sword behind Xia Fan, because they had suppressed their cultivation to the mid-third realm.

Inside the Chuyun Sword, the power of the sword left by Liu Shifei was clearly aimed at the upper third realm. If the two of them didn't suppress their cultivation, Liu Shifei would have known long ago that someone from the upper third realm had appeared by Xia Fan's side, and their plan would not have been able to be implemented at all.

"Cough cough, young friend, there's no need to worry too much. The two of us just want to invite you to have a cup of tea after your long journey, and rest your feet!" The white-robed Daoist Qinglu showed a kind and friendly smile, indicating that he had no ill intentions.

Seeing this, Xia Fan quickly nodded. After all, it wouldn't be good to anger these two.

"In that case, this kid will respectfully comply!" With that, he and Baiyu walked into the pavilion and sat down beside the two.

On the stone table was a game of Go, but Xia Fan didn't understand Go and couldn't tell who was winning or losing.

Seeing his gaze, Daoist Qinglu couldn't help but become interested. "If you don't mind, young friend, would you like to play a game of Go with this old man?"

"No no no, I don't know how to play Go, and my demonic sect doesn't teach that!" Xia Fan quickly waved his hand. Who would play Go seriously?

But Daoist Qinglu clearly didn't believe him and said in a soft voice, "Young friend, there's no need to be modest. I can sense the literary aura on you, and it's unlikely that you don't know how to play Go."

"As long as you can beat this old man, I'll give you a chance at good fortune."

As a Daoist, he naturally could sense the literary aura, and the literary aura on Xia Fan was even stronger than most scholars. It was obvious that he was a knowledgeable person, so how could he not know the game of Go?

"Hey, you little brat, you're quite stubborn. No need to hold back, play a game with this old man and crush his spirit!" The black-robed Zhu Hong pulled him over and pressed him into his seat, then patted his shoulder, appearing somewhat anxious.

Indeed, this was something the two of them had discussed beforehand. As long as Daoist Qinglu intentionally lost to him, they could continue with their plan.

Zhu Hong never expected that as the Dragon Sovereign, he would one day rush to give someone a favor and still have to go through so much trouble.

Xia Fan, who was pressed into his seat, felt a bit helpless, but he didn't dare to refuse. Who knows what these two old guys were up to.

"You're the junior, so I'll let you go first, how about that?" Daoist Qinglu smiled and waved his hand, and the black and white pieces on the table returned to their original positions.

"Thank you, senior!" Xia Fan said as he took the white pieces and made the first move.

With a light sound, a white piece landed on the center of the board.

Daoist Qinglu couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this. If it weren't for the chess intention he sensed in Xia Fan's literary aura, he would have thought that this was a person who didn't know how to play chess at all.

But what he didn't know was that Xia Fan did know how to play chess, Chinese chess, Gomoku, Beast Chess, and Cloud Top Chess. He was proficient in all of them.

Lucky Star, how many times had the Dragon Clan not gotten three stars? But they just couldn't play Go.

Then Daoist Qinglu held back his words and silently played the game. Xia Fan followed suit, always placing his pieces wherever Daoist Qinglu placed his.

After a few moves, Daoist Qinglu was dumbfounded. He had already made various concessions, so why was this kid even worse than him? Could it be that the other side was also letting him win?

No, the old Daoist couldn't win, but after a few moves, he realized that Xia Fan's moves were even more chaotic than his own. At this point, the chessboard already looked like it had been chewed on by a dog.

Finally, when Xia Fan made a move with dead eyes, Daoist Qinglu became angry. "You brat, do you even know how to play chess? Do you understand the rules?"

"Senior, please calm down. I really don't know how to play!"

Black and White Elderly:

At this point, they even suspected that this kid might know something, otherwise why would he say he doesn't know how to play chess when he clearly has a sense of chess in him?

"Forget it, this game doesn't count, let's play another one!"

After saying that, Dao Qing silently took back the chess pieces.

Then the two played again, but this time it took an hour.

At this point, Dao Qing, the Perfected Being, had a flushed face, angrily staring at the chessboard, gritting his teeth. He had already made every effort to make concessions, but the opponent's moves were just too damn bad, with no connections between the pieces.

"Elder, are you okay? The kid really doesn't know how to play chess," Xia Fan said cautiously.

"No!"

Dao Qing, the Perfected Being, slammed the table and shouted, startling Xia Fan and Bai Yu.

He had lived for so many years and had some skill in the game of chess. He might not always win, but if he couldn't even lose, then he might as well not live.

"Play again!"

"Elder, why don't we stop playing? I'm afraid you'll get angry and cough... I mean, the kid is afraid of wasting your time," Xia Fan sweated profusely, almost blurting out the truth.

He now had question marks all over his mind, feeling that these two old men were somewhat sick in some way.

He didn't know how to play chess at all, yet he had lost an hour. But that old man seemed to be the one who lost. He had clearly made random moves, so was he a Go genius?

"In your Literary Aura, there is clearly a manifestation of chess intent, and yet you say you don't know how to play chess?" Dao Qing, the Perfected Being, said through gritted teeth.

Upon hearing this, Xia Fan couldn't help but be stunned. Could this old man have seen my strength in Teamfight Tactics?

"I won't hide it from you, Elder. I do know how to play chess, but my style of play is a bit strange!"

"Strange? I don't believe you can be stranger than me. Play again!"

After saying that, the two started another game. After five moves, Xia Fan said, "Elder, I won!"

"You won in just a few moves?"

Then Xia Fan pointed to the five connected pieces on the chessboard and said, "Connecting five pieces is a win, this is Five-in-a-Row!"

Upon hearing this, Dao Qing was stunned. He was about to refute, but he felt that Five-in-a-Row was quite interesting. The rules were simple and easy to understand, with a sense of simplicity in the grand way.

"Great, the kid finally won, how refreshing!" exclaimed the black-clothed Zhu Hong.

Seeing this, Dao Qing quickly cleared his throat twice and said, "Ahem, well then, let's play another game. It's not so easy to take advantage of this old man!"

"Elder, I don't want any benefits, how about we have some tea instead?"

"Nonsense, if you say you don't want it, then don't want it? Hurry up and play!"

Xia Fan: ...

Then Xia Fan used his luck and magical power, and five chess pieces flew out and landed on the chessboard at the same time. "Elder, I won again!"

Dao Qing: →_→

His eyes revealed a look of "are you kidding me?"

Seeing this, Xia Fan quickly said, "Elder, this move is a famous ultimate skill in my hometown, called the Hand of God!"
