I See the Aura of the Great Emperor in All My Disciples

Chapter 1093: Chessboard Game, My Name Is Emperor Luan!
Editor: Atlas Studios

There was no longer any path in front of them. There was only a huge chessboard floating in the air.

On both sides of the chessboard were black and white chess pieces.

Even though the huge chessboard was floating on the cliff, it was dead silent. No aura leaked out.

At this moment, other than Ye Qiubai and the others, two men and a woman had arrived.

When he saw Ye Qiubai and the others, the handsome man in the lead was slightly surprised. Then, he smiled and said, “I didn’t expect to see you here.”

Ye Qiubai was the only one who had obtained the recognition of a remnant soul.

Therefore, any prodigy who entered the ancient battlefield could recognize Ye Qiubai.

The man cupped his fists and said, “Ancient Capital Star Region, Purple Cloud Sect’s Fang Yan.” Then, he pointed at the other two and said, “Peng Shiwu, Tong Xu.”

With that, Peng Shiwu and Tong Xu cupped their hands in greeting.

Ye Qiubai also cupped his hands in return.

Then, Fang Yan asked, “Brother Ye, did you find anything?”

Ye Qiubai shook his head and said, “Not yet, but if we don’t resolve this chessboard, we might have to take a detour.”@@novelbin@@

Fang Yan smiled and said, “Even Brother Ye can’t tell? Then let’s go up and give it a try?”

With that, Fang Yan stepped onto the chessboard first.

However, Mu Fusheng frowned slightly and said, “That’s not right. Ordinary people would not easily walk into an unknown place like this. His actions… seem a little too deliberate.”

At this point, Mu Fusheng turned to look at Song Xiao and asked, “Brother Song, do you know the background of these people?”

Song Xiao also understood what Mu Fusheng meant. He spread his hands and said, “I know about the Purple Cloud Sect, but I’ve never heard of these people.”

“That’s normal. There are so many prodigies in the world. It’s impossible for me to completely recognize them.”

Mu Fusheng nodded, keeping his guard up.

When Fang Yan stood on the chessboard, nothing unusual happened.

Ning Chenxin, on the other hand, stared at the chessboard and frowned slightly.

Hong Ying noticed Ning Chenxin’s abnormality and asked, “What’s wrong? Did you find anything?”

Generally speaking, Ning Chenxin would not show such an expression.

Ning Chenxin nodded and said, “I have some guesses, but I need to try.”

Then, Fang Yan jumped down.

Just as he was about to say something, Ning Chenxin walked up.

Everyone looked over curiously. Fang Yan and the other two also looked at Ning Chenxin with strange expressions.

Ning Chenxin didn’t have any aura or presence after all. He was the most inconspicuous person among Ye Qiubai and the others.

However, when Ning Chenxin stood on the chessboard…

Everything had changed.

The chessboard seemed to shake!

A low rumble sounded from the chessboard!

As Ning Chenxin sat cross-legged on the right side of the chessboard and closed his eyes, Confucian Dao auras seeped out of his body!

The Confucian Dao aura condensed into a huge hand behind Ning Chenxin.

The huge hand grabbed a black chess piece and placed it in the middle of the chessboard!

At this moment, in front of Ning Chenxin, under the shocked gazes of the crowd, a refined man in a green Daoist robe slowly appeared.

The man smiled and said, “It’s been a long time since we played chess. I hope you can let me enjoy myself.”

Ning Chenxin’s expression was calm as he nodded slightly. “I’ll try my best.”

Seeing this, the man held a white piece in his hand and attacked Hei Zi. At the same time, he said, “What do you think about Dao?”

As soon as the piece was placed, a single word was spoken.

The surrounding air seemed to condense, and a mysterious aura turned into a breeze that blew on the chessboard!

Ning Chenxin turned a blind eye to it. He silently picked up a black piece and placed it down. “At first, I thought that Dao is to let nature take its course and govern without doing anything. If too many rules and restrictions are imposed on people, it will restrict their freedom. Dao is to let nature take its course.”

The man smiled and raised his chess piece again. “But you said the beginning. What about now?”

Ning Chenxin did not hesitate. Just like his current state of mind, he was resolute and determined. He picked up the black piece and placed it down.

“What I hear, what I see. Benefits, power, inciting war for the sake of these countless people. This also overthrew my thoughts. Letting nature take its course is just the idiom born of the weak to excuse their own evasive actions.” Ning Chenxin’s move expanded his territory as if he wanted to devour all the men’s white pieces!

“The world will be chaotic and disorderly without certain rules and morals. If you want peace, you have to set rules!”

As soon as he finished speaking, white light flashed on the chessboard. The Confucian Dao Qi looked extremely calm before, but now, it was like sharp knives that were filled with killing intent!

Ji Qianyao, Jin Wujin, Jiang Qingluan… and even Fang Yan were shocked when they heard this.

They did not expect this ordinary-looking scholar to be so bold!

He dared to change the entire world and set the rules for the entire world!

What kind of spirit was this?!

The man’s expression changed slightly. Then, he smiled and placed his piece. This time, he did not defend. Instead, he took the initiative to attack! He wanted to stop the killing with killing and break Ning Chenxin’s killing momentum!

“Establishing the rules also means breaking the existing rules. Since you want to break them and re-establish them… this is often done by the victors and the peak powerhouses. Since your goal is the same as those other cultivators who broke the rules, what’s the difference between you and them?” The man’s words were like white stones, like sharp knives stabbing deeply into Hei Zi’s heart!

“The path to the Peak Stage is filled with corpses. In that case, can I consider your words and your path to the Confucian Dao as hypocritical?”

Ning Chenxin fell silent…

His master had once discussed a similar topic with him.

‘What was he thinking at the time?’

Coupled with the teaching process over the years… the man’s words were indeed unavoidable.

This caused Ning Chenxin to fall into hesitation. The chess pieces that kept falling were also hesitant. Sometimes they defended, sometimes they attacked…

After an unknown period of time, perhaps half a day? Or a day?

The man looked at the black and white twins on the chessboard and sighed slightly. Then, he raised a white chess piece and said, “It’s time to end this…”

Suddenly, Ning Chenxin said, “The goal is the same, but the process and the result are different.”

The man’s eyes lit up. He looked at Ning Chenxin, signaling him to continue.

“Nothing can have the best of both worlds. Although this path might be filled with hypocrisy, as long as I continue to do it and step into the peak, I won’t forget my original intention. At that time, resetting the rules will be enough to complete this unrealistic dream.”

At this point, Ning Chenxin placed his chess piece down!

Forcefully conscripting live chess pieces, the chessboard immediately reversed!

Seeing this, the man laughed. “Good! There are no two ways in the world, but since you’ve embarked on this path, it’s most important to have a clear mind!”

“My name is Emperor Luan. Are you able to take over my legacy?”
