The world of chessboard, where there is nothing but the chessboard.

The last time was a chess game with Ruby, but I didn’t expect that this time the chess game would be with the theoretical mastermind.

It seemed a bit hasty and casual to use this battle without gunpowder as her farewell battle.

But she was grateful to Evie for giving her the chance...the chance for revenge.

In the silent chessboard world, the only sound is the sound of two people playing chess.

Xi Xiu, who was also fighting his farewell battle, looked surprisingly calm at this moment. He tapped the table lightly, thinking about his next strategy, and then made his move.

'Ivy' looked at the chessboard in silence, placing the chess pieces in the appropriate positions.

Xi Xiu followed closely behind and placed a piece nearby.

The two men were silent and seemingly nonchalant, but they were able to counter each other's moves, and every move they made held a hidden meaning.

It is indeed a battle.

Silent battle.

After several rounds, the situation on the chessboard gradually changed.

Ivy held the chess piece in the air for a moment, as if she could sense the invisible aura on the chessboard. She thought about it and placed the chess piece accurately.

A clever move.

Xi Xiu's offensive was resolved.

The situation became increasingly tense.

Xi Xiu didn't know since when he put away his casual attitude. He stared at the chessboard intently, sometimes hesitant, sometimes determined.

Gradually, the chess pieces fell one by one, almost filling the chessboard.

The balance of victory has tipped.

It's her turn again.

'Ivy' slowly stretched out his hand and placed the chess piece steadily in the correct position.

Then, there was a long silence.

Xi Xiu stared at the chessboard for a long time.

He put down the chess piece in his hand very gently, as if he didn't want to disturb the tranquility of the moment.

"I lost." Xi Xiu looked at his opponent and said calmly, "Your chess skills are indeed better. This is a great farewell."

'Evie' looked at him.

Under Ye Jiyan's expression, Xi Xiu's smile actually looked somewhat relieved.

"You're also better at chess than Ruby," she said.

"Ruby..." Xi Xiu had long forgotten who this insignificant little person was.

The All-Seeing Eye confirmed the outcome of the chess game. Ivy had indeed won this game.

As the reward for the winner, she will get Xixiu's soul.

ended.

That's it.

Ivy suddenly realized that if this was revenge, then her revenge would have ended at this point.

"What are you going to do with my soul?" Xi Xiu asked casually. He seemed to have some inexplicable confidence, feeling that his soul would not be destroyed forever.

'Evie' couldn't answer this question. For her, time was life and it was time for her to leave.

When she was concentrating the time magic, she thought again, if the world of the third round was about to come, did it mean that this time would be the last time she appeared?

As time goes back, I'm afraid she will disappear forever this time...

But this kind of thinking only lasted for a second. Ivi remained absolutely calm, took one last look at the loser, and then injected time magic into his forehead.

……

……

Evie opened her eyes.

The game is over.

Xi Xiu's question was not answered for a long time. He once again saw the moment when the two personalities switched, and this moment was undoubtedly interesting.

If he had the chance, he really wanted to appreciate it a few more times.

Ivy felt like she had been asleep for a long time, but she knew that it wasn't that long.

She couldn't help but think about what had just happened.

The sadness that had been deliberately suppressed seemed to wake up.

Now it was rushing towards her.

She really wanted to find a place to cry.

In order to defeat an enemy, she lost almost all her companions.

Maybe they didn't have to die.

It's all her fault.

It’s all because she said she wanted to go to the third act.

They chose such a tragic and brutal tactic of mutual destruction just to get the enemy's soul.

Now, this enemy was looking at her from afar with a strange and disgusting smile on Ye Jiyan's face.

Ivy took a deep breath and forced her sadness down once again.

She wanted to die now.

"Can I ask you a few questions?" she said.

Xi Xiu made a generous gesture: "Privileges of the winner, please."

"You are not interested in time, so why do you want the heart of a sage?"

I remember Mr. Krillin’s answer was that Xi Xiu wanted to throw everyone into the vortex of time and annihilate them, so that no one could interfere with the world.

"Because I hold a grudge."

Xi Xiu stroked the chess piece in his hand and asked, "Don't you think that the sage's heart is the best reason to make them kill each other?"

“Since it was made, things have become much easier.”

Evie thought.

Maybe Xi Xiu is right.

Judging from his attitude, he probably doesn't care about the so-called reformists and conservatives at all. No matter how many factions the Shi family is divided into, they have already started killing each other.

The Sage's Heart was theoretically only used once, but many, many lives had been sacrificed before it was stolen.

Ivy didn't say anything, and Xixiu didn't want to hear her answer.

"For those who have disappeared in time, the world will make corresponding corrections. I think I have succeeded," he said.

"Do you mean Shiyan?" Ivy asked suddenly.

Xi Xiu raised his eyebrows slightly, showing an appreciative expression.

"You guessed right."

Time smoke is the creation of the world after correction.

Almost everything was Xi Xiu's plan. Shi Yan was like a puppet being pushed around the whole time, but he was the head of a family and Xi Xiu's superior. It was really unreasonable.

The revised world is full of traces of the first round, and Shi Yan may be a part of it.

“The person who should have stood in Shi Yan’s position was obliterated by time at the end of the previous world…” Ivy said.

A week ago, a senior said that she was the second person at the helm, as the first person could not survive the wear and tear of time and died halfway through.

Those who died in time would not be remembered by anyone, but Ivy probably guessed who that person was.

The only one who had the authority to enter the time vortex after obtaining the Sage's Heart was the head of the Yuye branch family. He disappeared in time, so the world arranged a puppet to stand in his place.

"He is an invisible opponent." Xi Xiu spoke as if he was talking about an enemy he had never met but was always there. "He should be a very valuable but troublesome person. In order to get rid of him, I will probably think of many ways... Pretending to merge with the Shi family and become a subsidiary is probably one of the plans."

"I stirred up his desires and incited him to rewrite history. The reason I used was probably so that he could become a pure bloodline like ours?"

"It's not easy to convince him, so I will tell him my secret. I will tell him a time point that doesn't exist, and then watch him jump into the time vortex and never see him again."

“So, the person who was the most in the way died at the time he most desired.”

"I think if the world hadn't been corrected, this would probably be a wonderful story."

Xi Xiu finished speaking intoxicatedly, then opened his eyes as if waking up from a dream, and his gaze returned to being cold again.

"The world nowadays is much more boring."

Shi Yan, who was like a puppet, was not worthy of being his imaginary opponent.

"What was your first hatred?"

Evie asked the final question.

Xi Xiu smiled, as if he heard someone asking him what his childhood dream was.

"It's been so long, I've forgotten it long ago."
