Chapter 486: Dragons and Snakes Rise from the Rivers and Seas (1/2)The white piece fell, and the chessboard's pattern immediately changed. 。If the Young Master of Dragon Slaying is indeed the mastermind behind the chessboard, then with the fall of this white piece, the dragon-slaying situation he has created will change. 。

Perhaps a single white piece is insufficient to withstand the overwhelming tide of destiny, and the chessboard can still be interpreted as a dragon slayer. But the existence of this single white piece, standing alone like a valiant warrior, has created a turning point on the board, adding a subtle shift in the balance.

。The existence of such changes makes the course of the game board full of unknowns. 。

It's no wonder Bai Xian'er said this child was the biggest variable.

。

The Dragon-mounted Young Master brewed a pot of tea, poured a cup for Bai Xian'er, and poured himself one as well. He then sighed with emotion and said, "It is said that Fairy Bai has extraordinary chess skills, tonight I finally have the opportunity to learn from her."

。To say nothing else, this move truly brings about unexpected changes to the board, introducing several unforeseen possibilities. 。But what if this move leads to certain death?" Saying this, the son of the Dragon Rider picked up a black piece and placed it beside a white piece. Just from the perspective of the chessboard, it was enough to trap that white piece. 。Bai Xian'er smiled ambiguously and asked, "Master Chenglong, which faction does this black piece you dropped represent?"Master Chenglong didn't explicitly state it, calmly saying, "Ye Junlang and Situ Liuyun have a deep grudge..." 。Jinlongwei rescued Situ Liuyun from under Ye Junlang's command. On one hand, they intended to have the Situ family owe them a favor. On the other hand, they had never ceased their opposition to Ye Junlang. 。Sistru Liuyun is indeed quite clever, possessing great strategic thinking. However, he has a narrow mind and seeks revenge for even the smallest of offenses. A person like this lacks the broad perspective needed for true greatness. 。Given Situ Liu Yun's personality, how could he possibly not seek revenge for the loss of his arm? Moreover, the Situ family is a renowned ancient hidden clan. How could they possibly swallow this humiliation? If my guess is correct, within these three days, there will certainly be a hidden expert from the Situ family who will come to Jiang Hai City. 。Whether Ye Junlang is qualified to become the Son of the Chessboard and participate in the game depends on whether he can pass the test of the Situ clan and the Forbidden Dragon Guard. 。Bai Xian'er smiled faintly and said, "This trip to Jinling was indeed fruitful." 。It is truly remarkable to witness the son of the Dragon Rider playing a game of Go with heaven and earth as his board, and the great forces of nature as his pieces. Such a grand and masterful display is beyond anything I have ever seen before. 。"The breadth of chest and ambition of Young Master Chenglong are unmatched by anyone," "As long as Fairy Bai doesn't laugh at me for being too ambitious or boastful, I would be grateful beyond measure." 。"The young master, riding on the dragon, smiled and said:" 。Bai Xian'er's face immediately revealed a resentful expression as she said, "Sir Riding the Dragon is teasing me again." 。In the Dragon Ranking, Sisheng's eldest son, Situ Liuwu, ranked tenth. He is a prodigious martial arts genius with excellent aptitude and has been identified as having the potential to reach the Martial Ancestor Realm. 。What does the Young Master Long think of this?

"I only believe in one thing: a genius who hasn't grown up yet is not a genius" 。"The son of the Dragon Rider said in a nonchalant tone," 。Bai Xian'er smiled sweetly and asked, "What about Xuan Yuan Yan Huang?"The Dragon Rider heard this and his face froze. 。When it comes to the nascent dragon list, Xuan Yuan Yan Huang is a name you can't ignore. Or perhaps better said, he's a mountain you can't bypass, standing atop the list and overshadowing the other nine individuals. 。

Xuan Yuan Yan Huang is a prodigy of the Xuan Yuan family's younger generation, excelling in both civil and military arts. In particular, his martial prowess further embodies the extraordinary bloodline of the Xuan Yuan family, even surpassing his ancestors. Legends say that Xuan Yuan Yan Huang has awakened the imperial bloodline of his ancestor, Emperor Huang.

。With the strength of a Martial Venerable realm, he was able to fight against high-level Martial King realm experts without defeat. 。Looking at the entire ancient martial arts world, who among the younger generation could achieve this?Even Dantai Lingtian, who ranked second on the Young Dragon List, was slightly inferior. 。

As the third ranked individual on the Azure Dragon List, the young master of the dragon-riding clan already possessed extraordinary talent. However, compared to Xuan Yuan Yan Huang, he was as different as a pearl from a firefly.

。I have met with Xuan Yuan Yan Huang, although not many times, we talked very happily. 。To be frank, Xuan Yuan Yan Huang is one of the few people I can't see through. 。The divine Shenguzi, who could sever life and death with a single word and distinguish the yin and yang, once said that Emperor Huaxia and Huangdi were born in accordance with the flow of qi and possessed the purple-yellow fate. 。Therefore, Xuen Yuan Yan Huang is destined to be renowned throughout the ancient martial arts world. 。“The Dragon-Riding Young Master spoke, and continued, “It’s a pity, one person's strength is hardly enough to withstand the unstoppable tide of events.” 。Even if he were the mighty Emperor Xuan Yuan, Yan Huang, gifted by heaven and possessing divine martial prowess, what difference would it make? In the face of grand destiny, the power of a single person is insignificant, like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. 。Bai Xian'er took a deep breath and slowly said, "According to Gongzi Chenglong's words, this mighty current is likely to sweep across the entire ancient martial arts world soon." 。The influence it brings won't be limited to a single faction; it will ripple throughout the entire ancient martial arts world. 。That was so grand and magnificent. 。but it was also destined to be a bloody affair. 。It's the inevitable course of events, who can change it? All we can do is follow the trend, control the situation, and hold this chessboard tightly in our hands. 。Victory belongs to the king, defeat to the bandit. 。The Young Master of Riding the Dragon spoke in a low voice. 。"Are you aiming for the grand view of being the ruler of all lands?"Bai Xian'er muttered to herself, glancing at the chessboard. Her eyes, like autumn water, inevitably fell upon the white piece representing Ye Junlang. 。On the board, this single white piece stands alone, valiantly facing off against a multitude of black pieces like an army. 。

He had the bearing of a lone man standing against thousands.

。However, under the sweeping tide of various forces, from a normal perspective, this white piece is bound to be crushed into pieces. 。But, let's step back for a moment. What if this white piece could actually withstand that surging tide?Wouldn't the final chessboard then truly form a pattern of universal unity where all parties share rule?However, in Bai Xian'er's view, this possibility was extremely slim, probably less than one in ten thousand. 。For no apparent reason, Bai Xian'er suddenly wanted to change the route of this trip. This stop was in Jinling. According to the original plan, they should have gone to Hangzhou next. 。But she suddenly felt an urge to go see Jianghai City. 。Before leaving, she remembered what her father had said—that great upheavals start on the vast sea. 。Back then, in the ancient martial arts world, there was a mysterious figure known as Shen Guzi who was incredibly skilled in divination and could accurately predict the future with his words. His pronouncements had such weight that they could influence the entire ancient martial arts world. Shen Guzi once declared— "Dragons and snakes will rise from the rivers and seas..." 。

This doesn't seem to be a coincidence.

。Is this Jiang Hai just the city of Jiang Hai? Or is it referring to rivers and seas?Bai Xian'er wasn't sure, but she thought a trip to the city of Jiang Hai wouldn't be a bad idea. 。By this time, dawn had broken, and a hint of pale light appeared on the horizon. 。

The young master of the Dragon Rider sighed and said, "After talking all night long, I didn't realize that dawn had already arrived."

。"The dawn is breaking, so I should be leaving now," Bai Xian'er smiled and said. 。It's truly a great pleasure to have been received by the esteemed Young Master Dragon tonight. 。"Riding the Dragon Young Master smiled serenely and said, “I don’t ask for anything else, only that Bai Xianzi play a song on her qin before departing.” "As for the Riding the Dragon Young Master's refined taste, how could I possibly disappoint him?" 。I just hope that the young master of the dragon doesn't find this laughable. 。Bai Xian'er smiled, she stood up and walked back to the ancient qin with charred tail. 。Bai Xian'er faced the Riding Dragon Young Master, bowed slightly, and gracefully took her seat. 。With a delicate lift of her hand, the slender and fair finger was revealed. It glided across the qin's surface, a thoughtful frown creasing her brow as the notes rose spontaneously within the building. The music was both gentle and resolute, flowing like an elegant stream, each note imbued with a subtle charm...The son of the Dragon rider gazed upon this extraordinary woman, brimming with unparalleled talent and beauty. A complex emotion flickered in his eyes. 。The other day, his family had contacted the Bai family to arrange a marriage. If successful, he and this extraordinary woman would become a couple envied by the entire ancient martial arts world. 。After that, Bai Xian'er suddenly walked out of the Bai family, saying that she wanted to experience the scenery of this great Jiangnan and the north, and the first stop was Jinling. 。

Riding the Dragon's Son knew in his heart that Bai Xian'er came to Jinling without ever facing him to test him.

。So, that night, Riding the Dragon Young Master used Heaven and Earth as his chessboard, the world's affairs as his pieces, to display his grand vision and ambition. He believed Bai Xian'er would understand. 。Besides, some veiled words had also been conveyed by him, and with Bai Xian'er's intelligence, she would surely be able to comprehend them. 。As for the final decision Bai Xian'er would make, he had no idea. 。In short, he can wait. 。Even if the best outcome doesn't come, he doesn't force it. 。A man with grand ambitions and a strategic mind, who sees the world's affairs as chess pieces to be manipulated, would certainly not let a beautiful woman derail his goals and aspirations. 。Still typing, hope to update a few more chapters tonight. 。Besides the martial arts world, the dark world will also unfold a more grand scene. 。Finally, I hope you can all follow my WeChat public account.
