"That’s true." King Chaoyang also smiled approvingly like a grandmother, "Both of them are Purple Abode Realm cultivators, and their bloodline awakening level is extrely high. Under such circumstances, the success rate is very low, how can they not make more efforts?"
"Hehe, but speaking of it, this ti that Shouzhe kid is quite resilient, hasn’t he been missing for a month now? Tsk tsk, I bet when that kid cos back, he’ll have dark circles under his eyes and his legs will be shaking, hahaha~" Emperor Longchang laughed in high spirits.
Suddenly.
A cold voice spoke up behind him: "Your Majesty, do you feel that you’re too idle?"
"..."
When Emperor Longchang turned his head, he saw Wang Shouzhe had sohow appeared in Stay Immortal Residence without making a sound.
He looked embarrassed: "Haha, I was just joking with you."
"Alright, since His Majesty is idle and bored, why not take a stroll on the battlefield outside the territory to protect our young talents of Da Qian?" Wang Shouzhe said with a cold smile.
"Why should I go?! I’m not going, I want to play mahjong, you can send Green Phoenix instead." Longchang was imdiately unhappy.
That miserable place on the battlefield outside doesn’t have anything, how can it compare to the comfort of playing mahjong here?
"Predecessor Green Phoenix has other important matters." Wang Shouzhe looked at him, smiling nonchalantly, "Your Majesty really won’t go?"
Emperor Longchang was intimidated by Shouzhe’s gaze.
However, when he glanced at his large pile of chips in front of him, he imdiately regained his confidence.
After all, he didn’t need to borrow money from Shouzhe for the ti being, what was there to fear?
He arrogantly raised his head, "I said I’m not going. I still have to guard the holand and the people in Changning, especially to prevent you, Shouzhe, from playing the autonomy and rebellion ga."
"Alright then." Wang Shouzhe sneered, turned around, and cupped his hands to Jiang Zhencang beside him, "Predecessor Jiang, could you allow to play a few hands?"
"Alright, alright, I was just getting tired of playing, Family Head Shouzhe, please." Jiang Zhencang understood the underlying aning and was ready to give his seat to Wang Shouzhe.
"No, no! Whenever I see Shouzhe, my luck becos bad, I’ve never won against him in cards." Emperor Longchang shook his head vigorously like a rattle, "Shouzhe kid, don’t think I don’t know, you want to swindle all my money so I’ll have to go to the battlefield outside to pay off my debts. I’m not stupid, why would I play cards with you?"
"Not playing cards is fine, then let’s settle it with a chess ga." Wang Shouzhe said with a carefree smile, "We’ll use the chips on the table as the stakes, and settle it with a single ga."
"What?" Emperor Longchang was extrely shocked, "Is the sun rising from the west? Shouzhe, are you really offering money?"
"If His Majesty is unwilling, then never mind." Wang Shouzhe turned to leave.
"Willing, willing! You’re offering money, how could I be unwilling?" Emperor Longchang gathered up his chips and chased after Wang Shouzhe, "Co on, let’s go to my room and play."
As he spoke, he instructed his card-playing friends behind him, "Give an hour, and watch decimate Shouzhe before coming back to play cards."
As they spoke, the two entered Liu Xian Residence No. 2 and happily started playing chess.
An hour later.
A disbelieving roar from Emperor Longchang ca from inside, "How is it possible?! Shouzhe, you lousy chess player, how did you win against ?"
"Your Majesty, accept your loss, Shouzhe takes his leave."
Wang Shouzhe gathered up the chips and was about to leave gracefully when Emperor Longchang grabbed him.
"Wait! Let’s play a second ga, with just as many stakes. You made many mistakes in the last ga, and only won by a small margin because I was careless. One more ga, one more ga and I’ll definitely win against you."
"Your Majesty, you’re out of chips."
"I can write an IOU."
"Alright then, let’s give His Majesty another chance."
Another hour passed, and the voice of Emperor Longchang, shocked to the point of breaking, resounded again: "How is it possible?! You won again by a small margin."
"Your Majesty, Shouzhe takes his leave."
"Wait, I’ll write you another IOU, this ti I’ll double the stakes to win back. Your previous chess path and strategy were clearly flawed, it was just luck."
"Alright then, let’s play a third ga."
Another hour passed, and Wang Shouzhe still won by a small margin.
Emperor Longchang was so shocked his eyeballs almost popped out: "Wang Shouzhe, you big cheat!! You’ve been deceiving for a hundred and so years!! Why aren’t you pretending now, why are you revealing your hand? Why don’t you keep pretending!"
To continuously beat Longchang by a small margin for three gas, what kind of unfathomable chess skill was this!? It was clear that he was toying with him!
For a while, Emperor Longchang was on the verge of tears, clutching his chest, swaying unsteadily.
This ti, he had really lost badly.
Wang Shouzhe, you big cheat! You said you were a lousy chess player!? Turns out you’ve been pretending all these years!
