Chapter 1277 - 1277 Give You Three Moves
1277 Give You Three Moves
Xue Fanxin followed Dean Qing Mu to an extremely rich spirit energy peak in the Five Elements Academy.
At the top of the mountain was an elegant small building. Outside the small building was a unique small courtyard.
Under a spirit pine tree in the small courtyard, a handsome man in a white robe with bamboo embroidery was playing Go.
Qing Mu brought Xue Fanxin to the man and cupped his fists and bowed. He said respectfully, “Dean, I’ve brought Xue Fanxin.”
The man raised his head and his gaze landed on Xue Fanxin. He ignored Qing Mu and said with a smile, “Little girl, do you want to play a game of Go with me?”
“Since Seventh Senior Brother has said so, how can I not accept the invitation? However, my Go skills are very bad. Please show mercy.” Xue Fanxin sat on the other side of the Go board, but she did not start playing Go. Instead, she sized up the person in front of her.
Ah Jiu had said that his Seventh Senior Brother liked to wear white clothes embroidered with bamboo, so she recognized this person at a glance as Ah Jiu’s Seventh Senior Brother, Zhu Qiye.
The name was a little strange.
Qing Mu did not know why the mysterious dean of the Five Elements Academy wanted to see Xue Fanxin. He had only been ordered to bring her here, but when he heard Xue Fanxin call the mysterious dean Seventh Senior Brother, he was immediately shocked.
Because he was too shocked, he could not help but say, “The dean is your Seventh Senior Brother?”
If the mysterious dean of the Five Elements Academy was Xue Fanxin’s Seventh Senior Brother, wouldn’t Xue Fanxin’s seniority be higher than his?
This Xue Fanxin’s background was really shocking. No wonder she dared to be so arrogant.
Zhu Qiye did not give Qing Mu any response. Instead, he ordered, “This has nothing to do with you. You can leave.”
No matter how puzzled Qing Mu was, he had no choice but to listen to orders and leave obediently. “Yes.”
“Little girl, I’ll give you three moves.” Zhu Qiye casually waved his hand and tidied up the Go board.
“Then I won’t stand on ceremony.” Xue Fanxin placed the black stone first with her hand and placed three pieces in a row. When she placed the stones, she looked casual and unimportant. She did whatever she wanted and did not think too much about it, nor did she care about winning or losing.
Just by looking at the three stones Xue Fanxin had placed, Zhu Qiye already understood her Go style. He casually placed a stone and said, “Since you call me Seventh Senior Brother, you must already know my relationship with Little Jiu. I haven’t seen Little Jiu for a while. I wonder what he’s been busy with recently?”
“In seclusion.”
“Seclusion? Why is he in seclusion at this time?”
“What’s wrong with entering seclusion at this time?” Xue Fanxin looked at Zhu Qiye, who was trying his best to pretend to be serious, and thought to herself, I want to see how long you can pretend.
Ah Jiu had said that his Seventh Senior Brother was an finnicky person. To put it bluntly, he had a very jumpy personality and was not a serious person at all.
Zhu Qiye only wanted to establish a high and mighty image in front of Xue Fanxin, so it was a little difficult for him to pretend. He said in a serious manner, “There’s nothing wrong with entering seclusion at this time. I just didn’t expect him to enter seclusion not long after returning to the Deity Position. There might be trouble in the Divine Palace of the Divine Region.”
“With Seventh Senior Brother’s ability, you should be able to tell what the natural disaster a few days ago was, right? With such a natural disaster, the Divine Region will definitely be chaotic. However, at such a time, the more you can discover the problem and then resolve some things fundamentally. As the true dean of the Five Elements Academy, Seventh Senior Brother is also unwilling to deal with some people in the academy, right?”
“Little girl, you’re really insightful.”
“Seventh Senior Brother, you flatter me. Then, thank you for letting me win…”
“Win what?”
“I won.” Xue Fanxin placed the last piece on the Go board.
Only then did Zhu Qiye realize that he had already lost. Because he had lost too quickly and was too depressed, he could not accept it. He no longer pretended to be serious and shouted in surprise, “How is this possible? How can you win against me? Do you know what game this is? Did you do something to the Go board, little girl?”
“How could I lose?”
“Impossible.”
He was this girl’s Seventh Senior Brother after all. He had lived for more than ten thousand years. How could he lose to the little girl?
