The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

Upon hearing that extremely familiar voice, Azi quickly ran behind Lu Yao.

"Look, aren't these the people you brought here?"

Lu Yao smiled faintly and turned to look at the person who had come.

"You brat! You dare to run? Hand over the Divine Wood Cauldron right now!"

Zhaixingzi of the Xingxiu Sect glared fiercely at Azi behind Lu Yao and shouted loudly.

"What divine wood cauldron? I didn't take it. You've got the wrong person."

Ah Zi poked her head out and said loudly.

But judging from his guilty expression, no one would believe he didn't take it.

"You stubborn brat, just wait until I catch you, then you'll be all talking."

Zhai Xingzi's eyes were sinister, and she had already thought of countless poisons to torture A Zi.

"Brother Lu, save me."

Azi looked frightened and tugged at Lu Yao's arm.

Lu Yao's lips twitched slightly, somewhat speechless.

"Boy! Get out of my way, or I'll let you taste the power of my Starry Sky Sect's Bone-Eating Nails. The experience will surely make you wish you were dead."

Zhaixingzi looked at Lu Yao with a very contemptuous expression.

"What kind of stray dog ​​dares to bark here?"

A cold glint flashed in Lu Yao's eyes as he spoke calmly.

"How dare you! Kill him! Leave those two girls over there."

Zhaixingzi roared, glanced at Wang Yuyan and Abi, and gave a sinister smile.

"Ants!"

Lu Yao remained calm and said indifferently.

A flash of sword light appeared, and before Zhaixingzi could even see what it was, his head was severed by the sword energy.

The other Xingxiu Sect disciples who came with Zhaixingzi also met the same fate.

"so smart!"

Azi was stunned as she watched the disciples of the Xingxiu Sect fall to the ground and die instantly.

"Let's go."

Lu Yao glanced at A Zi and said to Wang Yuyan and A Bi.

"Brother Lu, I heard from those people that this Miss Azi is a member of the Xingxiu Sect?"

Wang Yuyan glanced at Azi, who was searching for the corpses of Zhaixingzi and the others, and asked softly.

“That’s right, she is indeed a member of the Starry Constellation Sect. Let’s ignore her and go.”

Lu Yao chuckled and said to Wang Yuyan.

"Let's not go back to Canhe Village yet, let's go to Leigu Mountain."

Lu Yao thought for a moment, and now that Zhaixingzi and the others had appeared, the storyline of the Zhenlong Chess Game should begin.

After looting the poisons and treasures from Zhaixingzi and the others, Azi glanced in the direction Lu Yao had left and hesitated for a moment.

In the end, Azi didn't keep up with Lu Yao, since all the Xingxiu Sect disciples who came to hunt her down were dead.

Several days later, Lu Yao and the others arrived at Leigu Mountain.

At this time, Wu Yazi's disciple Su Xinghe had already spread the word throughout the martial arts world, inviting heroes and warriors from all over to play chess.

When Lu Yao arrived at Leigu Mountain, a considerable number of martial arts practitioners had already gathered there.

On a stone wall, Su Xinghe and a martial arts practitioner were playing chess, each holding black and white pieces.

However, after only a short while, the person playing against Su Xinghe was already covered in sweat and struggling to move. In the end, unable to place his pieces, he stood up and conceded defeat.

"Even the King of Chess from Jiangnan can't solve this intricate chess puzzle. Is this puzzle a hoax?"

"Nonsense! This so-called King of Chess of Jiangnan is just a name without substance, yet he dares to come and make a fool of himself."

The onlookers, mostly martial arts practitioners, were all commenting and discussing the person who had conceded defeat.

Just then, two more groups of people arrived.

Lu Yao was slightly taken aback when he saw the person who came, not expecting it to be an acquaintance.

"Why is my cousin here too?"

Wang Yuyan was also taken aback when she saw Murong Fu.

Besides Murong Fu and his group, the other group consisted of people from Shaolin Temple.

Most of the Shaolin masters had gone to Tianlong Temple in Dali. Only one high-ranking monk had come; the rest were just ordinary Shaolin monks.

"Brother Lu, I never expected to meet you here."

Murong Fu's eyes lit up when he saw Lu Yao, and he quickly walked over.

"Brother Murong, why are you here instead of strategizing at Canhe Manor?"

Lu Yao smiled and asked softly.

"Haha, thanks to Mr. Zhang Fang and Mr. Han Yan, I finally had time to come out and make some moves."

Murong Fu laughed loudly, clearly in a very good mood.

Murong Fu quickly told Lu Yao about what had happened during this period.

It turns out that after learning about the situation in the Tianlong World, Zhang Liang and Han Xin immediately began their actions.

With Zhang Liang in charge of overall planning and Han Xin in charge of training troops, Murong Fu had never been so relaxed.

With their extensive experience in rebellion, Zhang Liang and Han Xin were masters of these things.

Murong Fu was also impressed by Zhang Liang and Han Xin's abilities and handed over all his wealth to them.

That's why he had time to travel around the martial arts world.

Murong Fu happened to receive an invitation from Su Xinghe, which is why he brought Feng Bo'e and Bao Butong to Leigu Mountain.

The other two of the four retainers were those who assisted Zhang Liang and Han Xin.

In fact, Murong Fu was still somewhat wary of Zhang Liang and Han Xin, after all, they were not people he had recruited.

Therefore, he sent Deng Baichuan and Gongye Qian to accompany Zhang Liang and Han Xin, which was also intended to supervise them.

"Brother Lu, would you like to step forward and give it a try?"

Murong Fu glanced in Su Xinghe's direction and said with a smile.

"Then let's give it a try."

Lu Yao smiled and walked towards the Zhenlong Chess Game.

Murong Fu's lips twitched. Actually, he had wanted to play a game of chess with Lu Yao just now, but he was just being polite.

"Lu Yao's martial arts skills are superb, but that doesn't mean he's good at chess. Let's see how he solves this intricate chess puzzle."

Murong Fu had just glanced at the intricate chess game a few times, but he wasn't very confident either.

Just as Lu Yao was about to sit down and play chess with Su Xinghe, he was interrupted by a commotion.

"The Starry Sky Immortal possesses boundless magical power and extraordinary abilities, and his influence extends throughout the Central Plains!"

A large procession came marching by, carrying the flag of the Starry Constellation Sect and shouting slogans.

Ding Chunqiu sat on a sedan chair carried by four disciples, looking extremely arrogant, clearly enjoying their flattery.

"What's with this old monster? What bad luck!"

"Let's go, stay away from these poisonous creatures, don't get involved."

All martial arts practitioners kept their distance from the Xingxiu Sect, avoiding them like the plague.

Seeing this, the disciples of the Xingxiu Sect assumed that these martial artists were afraid of the Xingxiu Sect's reputation, and they couldn't help but feel smug.

"Boy! The Starry Sky Immortal is here! Get out of my way!"

When the disciples of the Xingxiu Sect saw Lu Yao preparing to step forward to play chess, they scolded him.

"Haha, senior brother, it's been a long time!"

Ding Chunqiu leaped directly to Su Xinghe's side and said with a smile.

Su Xinghe ignored Ding Chunqiu and closed his eyes.

"I forgot, senior brother, you don't know how to speak properly."

Ding Chunqiu was taken aback, then let out a cold laugh.

"Ding Chunqiu! What are you doing?!"

Su Xinghe's disciples quickly shielded their master behind them, watching Ding Chunqiu warily.

"How dare you! I am your martial uncle!"

Ding Chunqiu looked slightly angry and pointed at the group, rebuking them.

"Get out of my way, don't block my chess game."

Lu Yao didn't have time to watch the group of people pulling and tugging at each other, and spoke calmly.
