Book 2: Chapter 95: Kill Everyone

As Meng Tai hugged Feng Ling’s corpse, he seemed to lose all his strength instantly.

After a while, he started laughing maniacally. “Ha! Hahahahaha! Bury you with Li Wei? You want to be buried with Li Wei?! Hahahahahaha!”

Meng Tai had always been a selfish person, able to abandon everyone for himself. Since his master schemed against him, he paid it back in kind, imprisoning Wei Yang. Since he would die by following the Elite Hall Master, he let the Elite Hall Master die to ensure his survival. As long as he was fine, he could even give up Feng Ling.

Everyone could be abandoned.

However, Meng Tai now suddenly discovered that he felt upset after a certain person gave up on him. Although he had abandoned Feng Ling back then, he believed that Feng Ling would never abandon him.

Feng Ling abandoned me? She chose Li Wei? Even when she died, she wanted to die with Li Wei? She did not want me anymore?!

It turns out that I am not that important. I can be abandoned as well?

Husband, the greatest blessing in Feng Ling’s life is to be your wife!

Husband, I will love you my entire life and be with you forever!

Husband, do you want a boy or a girl? Hehe!

The past had already scattered like smoke. As Meng Tai held Feng Ling’s corpse, tears leaked out of the corner of his eyes as he felt a sense of loss.

“Meng Tai! You killed Feng Ling! I’ll fight you to the death!” Li Wei roared furiously.

Li Wei charged at Meng Tai as he roared.

Li Wei’s shout startled Meng Tai back to his senses. As he turned his head, bloodthirst flashed in his fierce eyes.

“Die!” Meng Tai shouted as he threw a palm strike.

Li Wei had been severely injured earlier. Although Meng Tai did not use the power of the Go stones, his full power was still extremely horrifying.

Boom!

Meng Tai sent Li Wei flying with a loud sound, causing Li Wei to vomit blood while in the air. Then, Li Wei fell where the dying Wei Yang was.

Bang!

Blood completely covered Li Wei as his body spasmed. He glared at Meng Tai like he wanted to tear Meng Tai to shreds and drink Meng Tai’s blood. “You killed Feng Ling! You killed Feng Ling!”

Meng Tai showed a ferocious expression as he looked at Feng Ling’s corpse in his embrace. Then, he looked at the nearby Li Wei and said coldly, “Bury you together? In your dreams. Feng Ling is mine. Even in death, she is mine. I will not let you have an easy death. I want you to watch as I become the biggest winner. I am the biggest winner!”

“Hahahaha! Cough! Cough! Cough! Cough!” Wei Yang coughed and laughed weakly.

“Old fool, what are you laughing at?” Meng Tai asked in a frosty voice.

“What am I laughing at? I’m laughing at how you have nothing in the end. Perhaps you will obtain the inheritance and the dragon vein, but so what? You have nothing left. You have lost. You are actually the biggest loser. Even Feng Ling, the only person who never lost faith in you, abandoned you. What do you have left? You have nothing! Hahahahaha!” Wei Yang mocked while laughing.

Meng Tai looked at Wei Yang with a cold glint in his eyes as he scoffed, “Old fool, do you think you can make me feel ashamed with just a few words? There is no place in the world for me? Humph! I will not let you die an easy death. I want you to see everything. Your regret is sufficient for me. I want all of you to feel regret! Humph!”

Meng Tai turned his head and ignored the dying Wei Yang and Li Wei.

Meng Tai gently put Feng Ling’s corpse down. Then, he turned his head to look below.

“Old Mister Guan Qi’s inheritance? The dragon vein?” A ferocious look flashed in Meng Tai’s eyes.

Then, he clenched his right fist, looking like he wanted to strike the ground below.

Meng Tai now controlled the white Go stones and the black Go stones. He was now the only winner.

“Everyone, send me your energy and help me break this barrier!” Meng Tai roared.

Whoos.h.!.+

All the white Go stones and black Go stones trembled. Then, sixty thousand-odd images appeared behind Meng Tai, sending energy to him.

As the horrific energy gathered, it seemed like a flame enveloped Meng Tai’s right fist. The horrific energy pulsed, sending out strong gales.

Then, Meng Tai suddenly punched the ground.

Boom!

The transparent peony flower underfoot trembled. Cracks appeared in it. However, it did not break.

If Meng Tai could not break the transparent floor, he could not obtain the inheritance.

Meng Tai’s face sank.

“It is still not enough? The energy is not enough?” Meng Tai looked sullenly at the two golden Go stones in his hand.

“Hahahahahaha! Meng Tai, you still cannot obtain it. You can’t obtain it! Old Mister Guan Qi already calculated this. We are all not qualified. The three keys cannot touch the golden Go stones, already excluded by Old Mister Guan Qi. You are excluded as well. You are a disciple of one of three sects, so you are not qualified. Hahahaha!” Wei Yang guffawed.

“You old fool, you are really noisy!” Meng Tai said coldly.

Is it not enough to use everyone’s energy?

Meng Tai’s face sank as he turned his head to look at the surrounding cultivators.

“What I used is not all your energy. If I gathered all your energy, perhaps…” Meng Tai’s eyes turned cold.

Meng Tai extended his hand and grabbed a white Go stone.

“What are you doing? What are you doing? Don’t grab me!” that cultivator exclaimed.

“ I want all your energy!” Meng Tai said with a ferocious expression.

Rumble…!

The golden Go stone drew that cultivator’s energy with its full might.

Soon, that cultivator withered, reduced to a dry corpse.

Crack!

That corresponding Go stone clone shattered.

A golden light appeared in Meng Tai’s palm.

“Indeed, I got more by draining all your energy than earlier!” Meng Tai said with a ferocious expression.

Whoos.h.!.+

Meng Tai pulled over another cultivator.

“No! Don’t!”

Crack!

That Go stone clone shattered when that person was reduced to a dry corpse.

Meng Tai started killing people one by one.

“You! You are going to kill everyone by taking all their energy?!” Wei Yang exclaimed in horror.

“It is not your turn yet. Just wait. Ha!” Meng Tai said ferociously.

“No!”

“I’ll fight you to the death!”

The various cultivators turned into dry corpses when Meng Tai forcibly drained all their energy. They all felt horrified and wanted to fight it out with him. However, they were only Go stones in the Go puzzle while Meng Tai was a player, so they could not resist. Meng Tai could do as he pleased.

Suddenly, Meng Tai pulled Li Haoran forward.

“I am the Divine Strategy Battalion’s Li Haoran! Meng Tai, you are seeking death!” Li Haoran said anxiously.

Li Haoran seemed bound by chains as Meng Tai pulled him over.

“Li Haoran? Haha! The Lord Li that Yue Yao wanted to report to back then was you, right?” Meng Tai suddenly said with a ferocious expression.

Back then, Yue Yao had wanted to send word. However, Meng Tai killed her. At that time, she had mentioned a Lord Li.

“Meng Tai, how ruthless of you! To think that you even killed your younger sister!” Li Haoran said coldly.

“I did not know she was my younger sister back then. Anyone in my way will die. I am ruthless and cold-blooded, so what? Speaking of which, Battalion Commander Li, Yue Yao died because of you. Humph! Since that is the case, go see her and express your regret!” Meng Tai grabbed Li Haoran.

Then, Meng Tai forcibly drained Li Haoran’s energy.

Li Haoran’s expression changed. Then, his body flared with dazzling golden light as he stepped forward and punched at Meng Tai.

“Go die!” A large, golden manifested fist rushed out when Li Haoran punched.

“Humph! I know that you are powerful. Of all the people here, you are the most powerful. I am no match for you. However, I am the player right now, and you are only a Go stone. I am the strongest in this Go puzzle! Humph!” Meng Tai glared as he waved his hand.

Boom!

Countless manifested palms appeared in the air as he controlled everyone and made them launch tens of thousands of manifested palms at Li Haoran.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Densely packed together, the tens of thousands of manifested palms shot out and smashed Li Haoran’s golden manifested fist.

Boom!

The attacks also sent Li Haoran flying back. He crashed to the ground, completely covered in blood.

“No matter how strong you are, can you be stronger than tens of thousands of cultivators? Furthermore, there is your own energy attacking you as well! Humph! You overestimate yourself!” Meng Tai revealed a cold smile.

“Cough! Cough! Cough!” Li Haoran vomited a mouthful of blood as he crawled back to his feet.

Then, Li Haoran showed a ferocious expression as he turned his head to look at Meng Tai.

“Again!” Li Haoran walked over with determination.

“No matter how many times you try, only death awaits you. Here, you are only a Go stone. I am the player; I am G.o.d!” Meng Tai said coldly.

Meng Tai stretched his hand out and waved.

Tens of thousands of manifested palms shot towards Li Haoran again.

Li Haoran manifested a golden barrier to protect himself, but even so, the attacks sent him flying in an instant.

Blargh!

Li Haoran vomited blood when he fell to the ground.

“Again!” Li Haoran got back to his feet with bloodshot eyes.

Meng Tai was the strongest in the Go puzzle world. Even if there were ten Li Haorans right now, they would be no match for Meng Tai.

——

Outside the death puzzle:

Be it Gu Hai’s group or the fifty thousand-odd cultivators outside, all of them felt shocked.

“The player? That Meng Tai is going to kill the one hundred thousand people in there?”

“All for Old Mister Guan Qi’s inheritance?”

“Even the Divine Strategy Battalion’s Li Haoran is not a match for him?”

Countless people felt shocked. However, they also celebrated that they had not charged inside recklessly.

In contrast, Long Wanqing appeared anxious.

“What should we do? Gu Hai, how can we save Li Haoran? You have a way, right? You definitely have a way!” Long Wanqing looked at Gu Hai anxiously.

“Are you that concerned about Li Haoran?” Gu Hai asked, frowning at Long Wanqing.

“After my mother died, I frequently got bullied. Once, an older cousin pushed me off a cliff, and I nearly died. However, Li Haoran appeared and saved me. He saved my life. Do you have a way?” Long Wanqing pleaded as she looked at Gu Hai.

[TL Note: The Chinese character for older cousin here is specific to an older female cousin via the female line. This means the daughters of the mother’s siblings or of the father’s sisters. Cousins from the father’s brothers have a different term. As mentioned in a previous TL Note, ancient China was patriarchal for a significant part of its history. Therefore, the term for a cousin from a father’s brother means that the cousin shares the same family name, hence from the same family. The father’s sister that was married out would no longer be considered part of the clan. Likewise, as the mother came from a different clan in the first place, her siblings are not part of the clan, either.]

Gu Hai stared at Long Wanqing for a while, remaining silent.

His heart melted under the antic.i.p.ation he saw in her eyes.

“There is a way!” Gu Hai frowned.

“What way?” Long Wanqing asked in pleasant surprise.

“The method lies with Li Wei. Li Wei is the last key. By helping Li Wei, you can get close to Meng Tai. Right now, Meng Tai does not have his guard up against the dying Li Wei. As long as he gets careless, you can s.n.a.t.c.h the two golden Go stones from him and eliminate him. You would then be the player, and he would be the Go stone!” Gu Hai said.

“What should we do, then?” Long Wanqing asked anxiously.

“This death puzzle is not difficult. We just need to determine the location and send people to Li Wei. Li Wei should be close to Meng Tai. The most important thing is to fix on a good location. We can send your other two servants.” Gu Hai looked at the two servants behind Long Wanqing.

“No, I’ll go!” Long Wanqing yelled.

“Hall Master, let us go!” the two servants immediately urged.

“No, I’ll go!” Long Wanqing ordered.

“Go together!” Gu Hai shook his head.

“Alright. We’ll go together, then. Together, it is!” Long Wanqing immediately nodded. “Gu Hai, be sure to send us to a good location!”

Long Wanqing showed a determined expression as her eyes filled with anxiety.

However, Gu Hai remained silent for a while before saying, “I can help send you to Li Wei. However, I have one request. I hope that Hall Master can promise to do it!”

“Speak!” Long Wanqing prompted anxiously.

“Do not trust Li Haoran at any time!” Gu Hai said seriously with a deep breath.

“Ah?” Long Wanqing felt shocked.

“I have only this request. Promise me that, and I will send you in. Otherwise…” Gu Hai shook his head.

“I promise!” Long Wanqing said anxiously.

Gu Hai looked at Long Wanqing for a while before finally taking a deep breath. “Alright. Hall Master, I hope you remember what I just said. Otherwise, the consequences will be dire!”

Long Wanqing gaped as if she wanted to argue with Gu Hai. However, the situation was urgent. After opening her mouth, she swallowed her words.
