Over at Sword Immortal Sun Juyuan's residence, Zhu Mei and Jiang Guancheng were standing with their heads bowed outside a pavilion, and Yan Lü and the others didn't dare to smile as they stood nearby.
Inside the pavilion was Lin Junbi, a young man currently studying a Go manual by himself. He always carried his beloved Go boards and Go stone containers with him, with all of these items being top-notch immortal treasures. It was said that these treasures had initially belonged to White Emperor City, and they had only made their way to Lin Junbi's hands afterward.
Two of the Go containers were decorated with the phrases "Always watched over by the deities" and "Always protected by the heavens," and the many Go stones on the Go board appeared like dazzling sword light from two swords, each exuding sword qi of a different color. There was a standoff on the Go board, and sword qi clashed above it.
Every time Lin Junbi picked up a Go stone and placed it on the Go board, his very act of avoiding the crisscrossing sword qi was dizzying and profound.
In reality, Lin Junbi hadn't scolded the two people just then, simply listening to their explanation and asking them a few questions about the details. However, Zhu Mei and Jiang Guancheng were quite nervous and scared.
It was difficult to imagine that Lin Junbi was actually a vagrant cultivator, especially since his achievements over the past few years were far too incredible, so much so that people could very easily forget his humble beginnings from the mortal streets and alleys.
Lin Junbi glanced at the Go board before looking at the Go manual resting beside his hand. He then turned to his companions and said with a smile, "There's no need to feel so tense. The situation is unchanged, so you can all go back and cultivate."
Three of them would face the three trials in three days' time.
Lin Junbi then called one of them back and proposed, "Senior Brother Bian Jing, how about a game of Go?"
The young man who had visited the wine shop with Yan Lü and the others nodded in response before walking into the pavilion and sitting down.
Over at the wine shop, he had seemingly reacted the slowest following Chen Ping'an's attack on Jiang Guancheng.
However, things were completely different now, and the young sword cultivator called Bian Jing appeared relaxed and lazy as he pulled a Go contained over and rested his cheek in his hand. He helped Lin Junbi clean up the Go board, not avoiding the criss-crossing sword qi like Lin Junbi, but instead choosing to forcefully shatter them as he picked up the Go stones...
