Chapter 76 - 75 He Ziyun
"Oh?" He Ziyun was somewhat surprised; he hadn’t expected Ling Chen to make such a choice. "On this chessboard, the ’pawn’ has the lowest status, and its abilities are limited. It risks its life only to serve others, without any freedom. Why would you choose it?"
"Mr. He, sometimes you need to look at things from a different perspective. Although its status is not high, it bravely moves forward, and whoever stands in its way meets their end. It is capable of slaying both gods and Buddhas, nothing can stop its advance. Given the right opportunity, it can still become a ’General’, ending the game. The most important thing is, it never backs down."
Hearing this, He Ziyun’s eyes gleamed, and he looked at Ling Chen thoughtfully, a faint smile appearing on his wrinkled old face. "You’re right; I’ve learned something new. You just said that was the old you, so what about now?"
"Now..." Ling Chen thought for a moment, then pointed to the ’chariot’ on the chessboard, "Now I should be like it, advancing and retreating at will, unbridled, without any restraint."
He Ziyun nodded, then abruptly changed the subject: "Are you curious about the origins of those people from last night?"
Ling Chen shrugged nonchalantly, "Mr. He, you have the right to choose whether to speak or not, and I have the right to choose whether to listen or not. I admit I’m curious, but I don’t want to meddle too much."
"But you’ve already interfered. Last time, those people kidnapped Little Hua, and it was you who took action to save her, foiling their operation. And last night, it was you again who helped, resulting in their failure. Regardless of what you think, those people will definitely target you and consider you one of the Qingyun Martial Arts Hall."
Ling Chen couldn’t help scratching his head. Whether it was rescuing Little Hua or what happened last night, both incidents were somewhat coincidental; since he came across them, he couldn’t just ignore them. If those people considered him an enemy, there was nothing he could do.
"Mr. He, let’s not talk about the other things for now, I am actually quite curious about something else."
"What is it?"
