Chapter 052
After about twenty or thirty rounds, Cheng Hui was crushed and began to question his life.
"You said... did you play it often before?" He stared at Lin Qingyang suspiciously.
Lin Qingyang laughed: "How could that be? Today is really my first time playing Gobang."
The corners of Cheng Hui's mouth twitched, but he wasn't angry about it. At most, he was just... a little frustrated.
I can’t even beat a little kid...this is such a failure.
"What's wrong? Huihui, are you unhappy?" Lin Qingyang asked nervously, as if if he said yes, he would apologize to you on the spot the next second.
Cheng Hui was left in a state of confusion. It wasn't a big deal, so why was this little brat so nervous?
"I'm not unhappy, but Qingyang, you're destined to be alone for the rest of your life..."
Lin Qingyang's expression froze instantly, and he stammered, "Why...why?"
Cheng Hui teased him deliberately: "Didn't you say you liked me? If you like me, why did you beat me to a pulp on the chessboard? If I were a little more prudent, I would definitely be angry with you."
Lin Qingyang was stunned. Wait, this is not right?
He once heard a senior say that when dealing with someone you like, you should show your strength in front of him and make yourself the other person's support. But why didn't this trick work in front of Cheng Hui?
Oh yes... Cheng Hui is a man, he would never rely on a child.
Lin Qingyang fell silent and decided to kill that senior brother right away... Then he remembered that he seemed to have killed that senior brother a long time ago, and the grass on his grave must have grown into a big tree by now.
"I'm sorry..." Lin Qingyang lowered his head in frustration.
Cheng Hui: ???
"Why apologize?" Cheng Hui looked puzzled. "You don't think I'd care about such a small matter, do you? Although I'm very angry about being crushed by you, that's my own lack of strength. What does it have to do with you? Why are you apologizing?"
"But you are my fiancé, I should give in to you..."
Cheng Hui's breath was so tight in his chest that his face turned red. "What nonsense! Why would you give in? Why would you give in? You won the game based on your own ability, but why should I admit defeat just because I'm your fiancé? Who taught you this?"
Lin Qingyang blinked, as if someone had said something similar to him in the past.
"But...shouldn't I be nice to you? I'm your fiancé, if I don't treat you well, who will?"
Cheng Hui felt overwhelmed. He usually tried to ignore this relationship, but Lin Qingyang always brought it up unexpectedly.
He took a deep breath and advised, "Qingyang, you're still young. There's no need to take on all these messy responsibilities. Fiancé and all that... Look, I'm dead. You don't have to fulfill this husband-husband relationship. When you grow up, no matter how capable you are, just based on your looks, there will be plenty of pretty girls who will like you. Wouldn't it be nice to be with those pretty girls?"
Lin Qingyang shook his head: "I don't want a pretty sister, I want you. And... I don't think there's anything wrong with maintaining our husband-husband relationship."
Cheng Hui had a headache. Why was this little brat so stubborn?
Lin Qingyang raised his head and looked at Cheng Hui steadily: "I want to be with you, not because of our engagement, but because I like you."
The corner of Cheng Hui's mouth twitched. An eight-year-old boy's love... Could it be that the original body was particularly good to this child in the past, causing him to develop a psychological dependence?
"Uh... how should I put it? You can't dwell on the past. Look, I'm really dead now. I'm different from the past. You can completely treat me and the Cheng Hui of the past as two different people. The one you like is the Cheng Hui of the past..."
"No." Lin Qingyang interrupted him directly: "Although I am young, I know very well who I like. I like you, the you who was reborn in my hands, not the Cheng Hui of the past."
Cheng Hui was immediately shocked by his words.
No... Is there something wrong with you, kid? Why do you have to like a dead person?
He clearly remembered how tragic his death was, and how the little brat Lin Qingyang hugged his body without any fear, and even considerately wiped the blood off his face.
It's over, there must be something wrong with this kid..._(:з」∠)_
Cheng Hui was very distressed. He had lived with his grandmother since he was a child and was brought up in a rough way. He knew nothing about the mental state of children.
He vaguely felt that Lin Qingyang was a little abnormal, but he lacked the means to help him. What was worse was that the kid was very cunning, and he couldn't use subtle methods to dilute the relationship between the two fiancés.
He always exposes it.
"Huihui, why do you always doubt me..." Lin Qingyang was very disappointed.
Cheng Hui chuckled in his heart. What does an eight-year-old kid know about love? It would be weird if he believed it.
He didn't say anything, but Lin Qingyang had already read the implicit meaning from his expression.
Lin Qingyang: ...
Once again, he regretted not having an adult body, otherwise his confession would not have been ignored.
I was such a loser in the past!
This conversation between the two did not end in a bad mood.
Lin Qingyang could fully understand Cheng Hui's thoughts.
After all... children are unstable. No matter how mature he is inside, he is just an eight-year-old child on the outside. He is powerless to do anything he wants to do. It is normal that Cheng Hui does not believe him.
Of course, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed. According to his calculations, he would have to be at least sixteen years old before his words would have some credibility in Cheng Hui's eyes. And there were still eight years before he turned sixteen...
Just thinking about it makes me feel devastated.
The days passed one by one.
After seclusion for a full six months, Wuyouzi came out.
His coming out of seclusion this time made everyone in the Thirteen Peaks completely settle down, and some servants who were ready to make trouble also calmed down completely.
It's not impossible to change jobs, and it's very common to betray your former boss before leaving as a token of your loyalty to your next boss. But the premise of all this is... you have to survive.
Wuyouzi's reputation within the Corpse Puppet Sect is very delicate. On the good side, he is very protective of his disciples. Even if they make mistakes outside, only he, the master, can deal with it, and no one else can do it.
But at the same time, everyone knows that he is petty. If you offend Wuyouzi, just wait and see. A gentleman will never be late for revenge, and Wuyouzi will basically take revenge overnight.
There's no way, who made him so strong? Except for the leader and some elders, no one in the sect can beat him.
Therefore, the cost of betraying the Thirteen Peaks is too high. Even if you succeed in gaining the protection of the new master, it is hard to say whether you can protect him. Maybe even the new master will be beaten as well.
It was precisely because Wuyouzi was notoriously petty and quick to take revenge that after the Xuanshi Sect and the Puppet Sect had been scheming against each other and performing scenes of betrayal and loyalty, there was not even one person on the Thirteen Peaks who took the initiative to betray. Apart from a few snares planted by the Puppet Sect long in advance, not even much news could be sent out.
After Wuyouzi came out of seclusion, the atmosphere in the sect changed again.
But all this has nothing to do with Lin Qingyang. Both Wuyouzi and his senior brothers and sisters seem to think that a child should not be troubled by the mess in the sect.
Although Lin Qingyang felt helpless, he also felt the concern of these people to some extent.
Although most of his senior brothers and sisters had eccentric personalities, their attitude towards him, their junior brother, was really impeccable.
So, he settled down and focused on practicing.
Then, one morning, the sect... exploded!
It really exploded!
Explosive roars erupted from several mountaintops, and even through the magic circle of Thirteen Peaks, one could feel the shaking of the mountains.
When Lin Qingyang came out of the house, he saw that the Thirteen Peaks' formation had been activated at some point, and outside the formation, there were more than twenty people attacking.
"What's going on? What happened?" Cheng Hui looked confused.
As Lin Qingyang's Xuan corpse, the information he could get was actually similar to Lin Qingyang's. In the past, he would use his spiritual sense to hear a lot of news from the outside world from the servants, but after Wuyouzi came out of seclusion, those servants seemed to understand what it meant to keep their mouths shut overnight.
The best source of information was cut off, and Cheng Hui was now in the dark. He could vaguely feel that the atmosphere in the sect was becoming increasingly tense, but he didn't know when the real outbreak would occur.
Obviously, today is the day of the decisive battle between the Xuanshi Sect and the Puppet Sect. The two sides have obviously torn their faces apart, otherwise the other side would never openly attack the Thirteen Peaks formation within the sect.
"The delay in news is so troublesome. We are not prepared at all." Lin Qingyang said unhappily.
He had accumulated a lot of resentment towards his own child's body.
"Your strength is too weak to get involved." Cheng Hui's words hit the point directly. In the final analysis, it was because of his lack of strength. If Lin Qingyang could have the cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment Stage, he would not be so ignorant of everything like he is now.
The sapphire blue formation connects many nodes, and each node is controlled by a mysterious corpse. As long as these mysterious corpses can hold on, the formation will not be broken, and naturally there is no need to worry about any external enemies.
The first optical fiber in the big town connects to a small courtyard in the distance.
Cheng Hui knew that it was the courtyard of the second senior sister. The eldest brother and the master had gone out together, and now the formation was controlled by the second senior sister.
Even though Second Senior Sister was a stay-at-home type, she possessed considerable magical power, more than enough to control the formation. Furthermore, with the help of those mysterious corpses, how could they break the formation with just these few tricks? Perhaps these people were being naive.
Sure enough, under the control of the Second Senior Sister, those people tried their best but only caused a slight fluctuation in the formation, and were still a long way from breaking it.
These people seemed to realize that they could not get any good results in the Thirteen Peaks, so they left the Thirteen Peaks in shame with others.
Lin Qingyang watched them leave and said hesitantly, "I wonder which peak is going to be in trouble again."
The Thirteen Peaks were able to hold on because the large formation here was refined with the help of a good friend of Wuyouzi who was also an expert in formation, while most of the other peaks relied on purchasing high-level formation plates.
The biggest advantage of the array plate is stability, but its biggest disadvantage is also stability.
The former meant that as long as the array disk was properly placed, the entire array would be fine. The latter, on the other hand, meant that because the array disk was too stable, once this stability was destroyed, the entire array would be easily affected.
An ordinary high-level formation plate cannot withstand the attacks of more than 20 cultivators - even a top-grade formation plate cannot do so.
