The moon ascended the skies, glowing at the sky like water, very silently.
Shen Lian was sitting in the hall of the newly built Daoist courtyard, accompanied by candlelight.
Ruoxi was playing chess with Shen Lian. Her spiritual strength was not inferior to Shen Lian's when he first entered Qing Xuan. She also had the ability to remember everything that she saw. With the help of The Synchronized Heart Mantra of Taisu, her spiritual strength had grown immensely, finally reaching the level of Fairy Tianmeng.
In this chess duel, Shen Lian was controlling his mental strength, equal to that of Ruoxi's. He made his moves with no extra thoughts.
In contrast, Ruoxi had to think before she made every move. The more they played, the longer she took to think, and yet she could withstand his attacks.
This time as Shen Lian laid his chess piece, Ruoxi held her chin and said, "Uncle, I don't know how to play against this move. I need to think some more."
