Chapter 300 Insights into the Chess Game
Yang Guo withdrew his palm, coldly looked at Zhaixingzi, and said, "Hmph, you can't even withstand one of my palms, yet you dare to provoke my master!"
"Senior Brother!"
The members of the Xingxiu Sect rushed forward to surround Zhaixingzi and check on his injuries.
"Good lad! I underestimated you!"
"Give me your name if you dare!"
After catching his breath, Zhaixingzi looked at Yang Guo with a mixture of surprise and fear.
"Yang Guo!"
"Fine! Yang Guo, I'll remember you! You just wait!"
Zhaixingzi was about to leave when Gu Qianbei said, "Wait. Did I say you could leave?"
"What else do you want?"
Zhaixingzi's heart skipped a beat; she had a bad feeling.
Gu Qianbei ignored Zhaixingzi and looked at Yang Guo instead.
"Guo'er, I'll teach you another lesson today. The Xingxiu Sect is a heretical sect, and all the people in it are vicious and evil."
When dealing with this kind of person, you either don't offend them, or you kill them in one fell swoop.
Now that you've offended them, they'll definitely go to Ding Chunqiu to complain after they leave.
Then, another problem will arise.
While we are not afraid, we don't need to leave such a problem unresolved.
Since we can't avoid trouble from Ding Chunqiu whether we let them go or not, what's the best solution?
Yang Guo instantly understood Gu Qianbei's question.
"I understand, Master! Kill them! Killing them will not only delay the news, but also reduce Ding Chunqiu's helpers when he comes to cause trouble next time."
This can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Gu Qianbei nodded in satisfaction.
"You're a promising student. So, what should you do now?"
"Kill! And leave no one alive!"
As Yang Guo spoke, he looked at the Xingxiu Sect members, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
"How dare you! I am the eldest disciple of the Xingxiu Sect! If you kill me, my master, the Xingxiu Immortal, will absolutely not let you off!"
Zhaixingzi panicked immediately.
He had absolutely no idea what the master and apprentice were up to. If they really intended to kill him, then things would be in trouble.
"This mere old monster from the Star Constellation Realm is not worthy of my fear."
Gu Qianbei said coldly.
"Brother Gu, are you really going to kill them? Isn't that a bit too cruel? The leader is at fault, but the other Xingxiu disciples are innocent, aren't they?"
Duan Yu said with some reluctance.
"Brother Duan, that's because you don't understand the Xingxiu Sect. This sect only recruits cunning and treacherous people."
There is a brutal competitive mechanism within their sect.
If you don't harm others in this sect, you will be harmed by your fellow disciples.
Simply put, the Xingxiu Sect is raising Gu poison.
This "Star-Picking Scholar" didn't become the senior disciple because he was the first to join; rather, he became the senior disciple by killing a fellow disciple ranked above him.
"Is this Starry Constellation Sect really this vicious?"
Duan Yu was greatly surprised.
"The world is dangerous, but it's far more complex than you can imagine."
Alright, that's enough said. Guo'er, get to work!
"Yes, Master!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Guo immediately cast the Golden Light Spell to protect his entire body from the poison of the Xingxiu Sect disciples.
At the same time, he used the Phoenix Dance Six Illusions technique to approach the crowd with terrifying lightness skills.
Golden light condensed into a long sword in his right hand, and he reaped the lives of the Xingxiu Sect disciples one sword after another.
Within a few breaths, all of the dozen or so Xingxiu Sect disciples perished.
Yang Guo was slightly out of breath, not from exhaustion, but from the tension after killing someone.
He is still young after all.
A series of screams rang out, and everyone's expression changed slightly.
The innkeeper and waiter huddled in a corner, too afraid to speak.
Gu Qianbei nodded in satisfaction upon seeing this.
"Master, what should we do with these corpses?"
Yang Guo exhaled a breath of stale air, regained his composure, and asked in a low voice.
"Disciples of the Xingxiu Sect all carry poison on their bodies. If you touch them carelessly, you may become contaminated with the toxins."
Therefore, cremation is the best option.
However, this type of martial art is not easy to learn.
However, I have an alternative martial art.
Gu Qianbei smiled faintly, and then a faint white arc of electricity appeared on his right hand.
Yang Guo's eyes lit up immediately.
Thunder Magic!
Gu Qianbei unleashed a bolt of lightning, covering all the corpses of the Xingxiu Sect disciples.
A plume of black smoke billowed out, and the corpses were charred and then turned to ashes.
Even if it was originally highly toxic, it has now been completely purified.
"Master! You can even unleash lightning? What kind of martial art is that? I want to learn it too!"
Yang Guo was overjoyed.
Mu Wanqing and Duan Yu were equally shocked to see this.
They had never seen this kind of martial art before.
"You can learn it, but your current mastery of the Golden Light Mantra is not enough."
The Golden Light Mantra is a foundational martial art for Thunder Techniques. Once you have mastered the Golden Light Mantra, you can learn Thunder Techniques.
However, you must remember that you cannot lose your pure Yang body before learning thunder magic.
Furthermore, one must not break one's body before mastering the Thunder Technique.
Otherwise, you won't be able to learn my Yang Thunder technique; you'll only be able to learn the other half of the Yin Thunder technique.
Although neither of these two lightning techniques is inherently superior, Yang lightning is ultimately more suitable for you.
"Master, I understand!"
I never imagined the Golden Light Mantra had such a powerful advanced martial art! I must preserve my pure Yang body!
Yang Guo was extremely excited.
He is still young, so it's still easy for him to preserve his pure yang body.
Moreover, given his current progress in cultivation, he should be able to master the Golden Light Mantra in another year.
A year is not a long time.
When Gu Qianbei mentioned that cultivating Yang Five Thunder required a pure Yang body, Mu Wanqing blushed slightly.
Is he still...?
"Shopkeeper, I'm so sorry for making such a mess of your place. Consider this money as compensation, and please clean up any extra money."
Gu Qianbei took out a silver note and handed it to the innkeeper.
The innkeeper dared not accept the offer and quickly refused.
Gu Qianbei stuffed the silver note into his pocket.
"You should compensate me for breaking things, so don't feel bad about it."
Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who goes back on their word. These are all things I gave sincerely.
Seeing Gu Qianbei's sincerity, the shopkeeper finally dared to accept the money.
"Thank you, young master! Thank you, young master!"
The four of them sat down to eat, and the innkeeper and others began to tidy up.
"Brother Duan, what are your thoughts on this 'Rare Chess Game'?"
Gu Qianbei asked with a smile.
"What opinion could I possibly have? I'm just here to watch the show."
Duan Yu said with a smile.
If we were to ask who among them possessed the most superb chess skills, it would undoubtedly be Duan Yu.
In fact, when Gu Qianbei was reading the original story, he felt that the Zhenlong Chess Game should have been prepared for Duan Yu.
Earlier, in Wanjie Valley, when Duan Yanqing and Huangmei Monk were playing chess, Duan Yu had given Huangmei Monk pointers that helped him defeat Duan Yanqing.
Of course, some unexpected situations occurred during the process, which caused Duan Yanqing to accidentally fill his own eye and lose his game.
This corresponds to the Zhenlong Chess Game.
It is estimated that the original plot was that Duan Yu was inspired by the chess game in Wanjie Valley, and eventually solved the Zhenlong Chess Game, thus obtaining the complete inheritance of the Xiaoyao Sect.
However, later on, a Xu Zhu with little personal charisma appeared and stole everything.
If that's the case, then Xu Zhu seems a lot like a time traveler.
