Someone was unwilling to accept the result and said, "Why do you decide life and death for us?"

"Shut up!" Yuan Shaojin stared at him coldly, "If you're afraid of death, get out! Why are you participating in the Heavenly Test? You cowardly maggot, why are you pretending to be a hero here? You're a genius?"

The man was furious, but was afraid of his identity and dared not speak.

In this way, even if those who have dissent are dissatisfied, they will not dare to say anything.

"Fourth brother, are you okay?" Shen Siyao held a three-lined vicious pill in his hand, "Fourth brother, eat it quickly."

Xie Changsi pushed the pill back and said, "Princess, you can eat it. I'm fine."

He stubbornly refused to eat it, so Shen Siyao lowered his head and didn't eat it either. He quietly hid the pill away, just in case.

"Princess, you are a precious girl, and you have already accompanied me here. Please go out first." Although Xie Changsi asked, his tone did not allow for any argument, and he reached out to pinch the jade token.

"No!" Shen Siyao held her jade token tightly, then quickly put it into the brocade bag and hid it in the lapel at her chest.

"Princess! If something happens to you here, how can I explain to His Majesty?" Xie Changsi became dignified, very cold and scary.

Shen Siyao was very afraid of him being like this. He was tall and big, and when he got angry, he was even more oppressive, even more intimidating than her father.

But it was the first time that she stiffened her neck like this, her face flushed as she said, "No! I am the princess! Since you have pledged your loyalty, my words are orders! Even if I die, I will stay by your side!"

"Princess!" Xie Changsi looked into those wide-open tearful eyes, shook his head, stood up and walked towards the chessboard.

Tears suddenly rolled down Shen Siyao's eyes, like a crystal clear dragon pearl. She pursed her lips, a sour feeling welled up in her heart, but she raised her hand to wipe away her tears, and as if nothing had happened, she stood up and followed.

The other people couldn't even care about their own lives, so naturally they had no time to care about the unpleasantness happening between them.

Next to the chessboard, Chu Chaozhao and his five companions were confronting Xie Qingyu and his two companions, with their swords drawn and the situation tense and tense.

"It's better to be fair." Shen Siyao said. Her soft voice was hoarse, but still very pleasant to the ear. "There are still 20 people present who are unwilling to leave. Each of them will play the white chess piece once and make a choice. As for the possibility of implicating others if you make a wrong move, if you don't want to be implicated, you can choose to play the white chess piece first."

It might seem unfair on ordinary days, but when it comes to life and death decisions, no one wants to be implicated and die, but they also dare not play chess.

Because one's own life is very important, and so are the lives of others. If one is alone and weak, then even if his shoulders are broad, he cannot bear the life of one person, or even a group of people.

So no one had any objections. What she proposed was the most appropriate one at the moment, but no one dared to take action.

A young man staggered up to me, his face was pale, but even at this time and place, he still had a playful look on his face.

"Why don't I go first?"

Chu Chaozhao remembered this person at first sight. It was because he was good-looking, but the dazzling jewels on his body made him unforgettable.

He had been hiding in the crowd before, as if he was blending in with everyone else, making it impossible for people to notice him. But this time he was no longer hiding and stood in the front.

The body was inlaid with sparkling gems, and there were symmetrical jades hanging on the waist and chest. One could tell at a glance that the jade was of good quality, round and translucent, with a full luster, which made people unable to take their eyes away, not to mention the sparkling gems.

Chu Chaozhao's eyes lit up and he leaned forward.

Jiu Moyi didn't have the energy to talk nonsense, but he still held her head back and put it back into Shangguan Sulan's arms.

Facing those wide and protesting eyes, Jiu Moyi felt soft-hearted: "Be good, all the A-Lan you like are here. A-Lan! You can't even keep people, what can I ask you to do!"

This was the first time Shangguan Sulan acted like this. Instead of arguing with him, he glared at the young man.

This man dared to steal her status as the eldest lady and even tried to attract Ah Zhao! Damn it!

"Be good~ I have everything you want~" Shangguan Sulan took out a bunch of gems lovingly and piled them in front of everyone, which immediately attracted Chu Chaozhao's attention.

The eyes of the decadent young man who was determined to die suddenly lit up and he came back to life instantly, moving closer to the pile of gems like a ghost.

When he got close, he stopped, because there was a sharp blade against his throat.

"If you take another step forward, I will make you bleed to pieces on the spot!" came Zhuge Fusheng's already cold voice.

Shangguan Suchen looked at the young man in silence: "Sir, please don't get close to our Ah Zhao. She is still young. Don't scare her."

The four of them were watching with eager eyes, and they all thought that this man must be up to something bad, against their Ah Zhao.

"Okay, okay~" The young man raised his hands, smiled awkwardly and stepped back.

The people who witnessed everything: ...No, are you sick? What time is it?

Tushan Rongqing had no choice but to speak at the right time.

——Ah Zhao, why don't you put these gems away and enjoy them later? How about solving the problem now?

——Arong.

——Hmm? What's wrong?

Chu Chaozhao was holding a gem, his voice was lower than ever before, and Tushan Rongqing felt as if something was pulling at her heart.

——Do these gems look like the gems on the first small sword that my third senior brother made for me?

Tushan Rongqing took out a shiny little sword from a treasure box.

——Yes, but the gem is not as rare as the one in your hand.

——Arong, I miss my third senior brother, and my second senior brother, my uncle, my senior brothers and sisters, Uncle Jiuqi, and my master!

Tushan Rongqing sighed silently. Ever since waking up from his slumber in the Demon Palace, he found that his Ah Zhao seemed to have let go of the overly heavy past and was not so old-fashioned anymore. This was a good thing, but there were more people who cared about him and he had more concerns.

According to the book, she is on the chessboard, unable to control her own fate. She should not have so many concerns, because these concerns will become her weaknesses and fatal weaknesses.

But Tushan Rongqing felt that this was also good, as it was more humane and a bit of worldly life.

His voice was like coaxing a child.

——Ah Zhao, be good~ After the heavenly test, let’s go back to Yunzhou and don’t worry about anything.

Chu Chaozhao nodded, then shook her head. She put the gem away, hugged Shangguan Sulan's face and kissed her.

Shangguan Sulan was stunned for a moment: "How can you be so disrespectful, kid!"

Although he said this, his face turned red, and the corners of his mouth were raised to the sky. By the way, he raised his eyebrows to show off to Jiu Moyi, who was jealous and had red eyes beside him, and he was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

Zhuge Fusheng and Shangguan Suchen were the first to sense the difference in Chu Chaozhao's mood and looked over with concern. Chu Chaozhao smiled at them.

"I'll go first."

"Why? My senior sister goes first!" Yuan Shaojin stood in front of her and turned to Xie Qingyu and said, "Senior sister, just go ahead and do whatever you want."

He pointed to a few spots and said, "Don't play these. They're not safe. The others are up to you."

He was a member of the royal family. Even though he had been practicing Taoism since he was a child, he still knew the basic arts such as music, chess, calligraphy and painting. However, he did not master them to the highest degree and could only barely show them off. Therefore, he could understand everything from beginning to end.

But his senior sister didn't say anything and just watched, so he didn't say anything either.

He pointed out several positions where, if the moves were made incorrectly, the senior sister's chess pieces would most likely be swallowed up and her life would be in danger.

Chu Chaozhao smiled, and some thoughts flashed through her mind. She asked, "Ah Chen, is there any mystery in those places? Could it be to prevent him and his senior sister from dying?"
