The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!

In the wilderness, the two were fleeing at high speed, quickly leaving the area.

And the words of Junior Cheng brought a frown of puzzlement to Li Muyang’s face.

“Elder Yan has gone mad and entered the Demon Path?”

“What kind of madness and entry into the Demon Path?”

Yan Xiaoru had, in the past, reaped tens of thousands of disciples loyal to the Refinement Demon Sect within Yunxiao City. It could be said that she was cruel and cold-blooded, a stark contrast to her previous behavior.

It was no wonder to outsiders that such a Yan Xiaoru was said to have succumbed to the Demon Path.

But Junior Cheng was a disciple from the Enforcement Hall who had followed Yan Xiaoru for many years, and even he said Yan Xiaoru had succumbed to the Demon Path.

Even claiming that his arm, as well as the wounds on his body, were caused by Yan Xiaoru?

Li Muyang, puzzled and disbelieving, asked, “What exactly happened? Why would Elder Yan harm you?”

Yan Xiaoru’s culling of the tens of thousands of demon sect disciples could only be described as heartless, but it was still understandable.

But to harm Cheng Feiyang, a youth who had been loyal to her for many years… that was somewhat abstract.

Although Yan Xiaoru was ruthless, she was not a murderous demon. Why would she harm Cheng Feiyang?

Li Muyang and Junior Cheng moved away from the area where the demon-attracting incense was lit and came to a secluded and dimly lit valley before stopping.

Li Muyang, filled with doubts, began to ask Junior Cheng.

Luckily, the youth did not hold back any secrets.

He sighed and said, “Senior Brother Li, ever since you disappeared, this world has completely changed.”

“First, the entire Refinement Demon Sect was destroyed due to the battle between the Ancestral Founder and the Qingmu Jiao clan. Following that, Elder Yan slaughtered the remaining sect disciples.”

“After the fall of Yunxiao City, our Refinement Demon Sect has become a thing of the past in the Cultivation World, with no one able to raise the sect’s banner again.”

“I had no home to return to and didn’t want to join other sects, so I wandered the wildlands for two months.”

“Until last month, when I accidentally encountered Elder Yan.”

“At that time, she was refining some kind of magic artifact of the Demon Path in the wildlands, and the Demonic Qi soared to the skies.”

“When I saw her again, she was like a completely different person compared to before.”

“Elder Yan used to be reserved and proud, yet her propensity for killing was minimal, which was quite rare among the powerful practitioners of the Demon Path.”

“But when I saw her that time, she was shrouded in dense, devilish and murderous Qi, her whole person became filled with killing intent, and her eyes were full of a bloodthirsty and violent emotions.”

“I hesitated for only a second, unsure whether to pledge loyalty to her, and she, raising her hand, sent out a blast of Sword Qi that severed my right arm.”

“Had I not escaped quickly, and had she not been occupied with the refinement of the artifact, unable to leave the ritual platform to chase me, I would have been dead by then.”

The youth recounted the past events of a month ago with a serious and cold expression.

Even while narrating the chilling experiences akin to ghost stories, he still wore that same arrogant, sullen face.

With his unchanged expression and features, Li Muyang even wondered if he had facial paralysis.

After Cheng Feiyang finished sharing his experiences, he looked to Li Muyang and asked, “Senior Brother Li, why did you light the demon-summoning incense in the Arcane Ark? Are you seeking to gather people to help?”

“But the Demon Sect is already destroyed, and we are also atop the Arcane Ark, even if the sect had not fallen, we would hardly be able to gather a few helpers here…”

The youth looked perplexed.

Li Muyang then sighed and said, “I had heard that Elder Yan was nearby, so I wanted to seek her help.”

“Elder Yan is skilled in chess, I wanted to ask for her assistance…”

Li Muyang did not mention the game, only saying he had made a chess appointment with a player and needed external help.

After hearing Li Muyang’s story, the youth shook his head: “It’s good that I came first. If Elder Yan had come first, then it would be over.”

Cheng Feiyang rose to his feet and said to Li Muyang, “Let’s go, Senior Brother Li. I also play chess, and my skills are unmatched within the Refinement Demon Sect.”

“Even including all the elders, no one has ever beaten me.”

“Who is the chess player you agreed to battle with? I’ll go and fight him for you.”

Without inquiring why Li Muyang had scheduled a chess battle or the reasons and objectives behind it,

the youth simply stood up, ready to lend a hand.

Li Muyang looked at Cheng Feiyang with a doubtful expression: “…You know how to play chess? For real?”

Cheng Feiyang’s expression remained calm, “If Senior Brother Li doesn’t believe me, we can play a game.”

Li Muyang’s eyes darted, and he said, “Alright! Let’s play a live game.”

He waved his hand and the Destruction Wheel from his Qi Sea Dantian flew up and sliced off a slab of stone from the cliff walls of the secluded valley.

Then, following the pattern of a chessboard from the game, he etched a grid of intersecting lines on the stone slab.

Afterwards, Li Muyang drew upon Spiritual Energy, causing numerous small stones to lift from the mountain behind him, trembling in mid-air and morphing, eventually taking the form of rough stone chess pieces.

“I’ll take the stones as white. Junior Brother Cheng, you take the wooden pieces as black.”

The youth had no objections.

He too drew upon Spiritual Energy, and a tree amidst the mountain behind him shuddered. Subsequently, the tree trunk rapidly split, forming hundreds of wooden chess pieces of nearly identical size.

“I play black and will go first.”

The youth raised his left hand, and a wooden chess piece landed on the board.

Seeing this, Li Muyang closed his eyes slightly and entered the world of the game.

He arrived at the first floor of Futu Tower and saw the faceless figure emerge from the painting.

“…Wu Ming, you’re here to play chess again?”

The figure laughed.

Consecutive major victories had filled it with confidence.

But this time, Li Muyang came prepared.

He immediately called over a black piece hanging in the sky and placed it on the chessboard.

The location where the black piece was placed precisely matched where Junior Brother Cheng had placed his piece in reality.

The faceless figure was slightly surprised to see this move.

“Oh? Have you learned to be smart?”

Although it seemed nothing special to Li Muyang, just the first move on a blank chessboard,

to a chess master like the faceless figure, this first piece was entirely different from previous strategies.

The faceless figure thought for a moment, raised its hand to summon a white piece, and placed it on the board.

In the real world, Li Muyang immediately threw a stone piece, and the placement matched the faceless figure exactly.

Junior Brother Cheng, without uttering a word, immediately made his move.

And Li Muyang in front of him needed only a brief moment of thought to quickly keep up.

Pieces fell in succession, and by the time each had placed their twenty-third piece, the expressions on the face of the young Cheng Feiyang were extremely grave.

“…Senior Brother Li, is your skill in chess truly so profound?”

The youth’s serious gaze turned to Li Muyang, saying, “Then is the chess player you agreed to battle even stronger than you?”

At this moment, the youth seemed to sense a challenging situation.

Li Muyang coughed, “Let’s finish this game before we talk…”

He didn’t understand a damn thing about chess!

Right now, the one playing chess with Cheng Feiyang was his enemy!

In the game, within the grand cosmic chess match, the faceless figure expressed doubt.

“Wu Ming! How did your skill in chess improve so quickly?”
