Chapter 798: Chapter 159: All Heavens Battlefield_3
Aside from notable chess records, Feng also found a lady for Li Hao.
“This lady is Princess Hongyue from the Divine Dynasty, famous from childhood as a talented girl well-versed in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, particularly adept in Chess Tao.”
Feng Boping brought a beautiful woman in a red dress to Li Hao’s courtyard.
Upon hearing this, Li Hao’s eyes slightly brightened.
Princess Hongyue, looking at the young man before her, felt a slight displeasure as he gazed intently at her, but she did not show it.
She knew her status; though a renowned talented girl in the Divine Dynasty Imperial City attracting many princes and princely heirs, she was now in the Holy Land, brought here by a Saint, and the man before her was likely a Saint Heir!
Her status was negligible in front of a Saint Heir.
What disappointed her was that, unexpectedly, this Saint Heir was not as composed as those princes and princely heirs, who at least concealed their unsavory thoughts, whereas this young man was completely transparent.
“Princess Hongyue greets the Saint Heir.”
Although internally disappointed, Hongyun outwardly showed a clever and adorable demeanor.
“I am not a Saint Heir, just call me Young Master.”
Li Hao said.
Princess Hongyue was startled, her eyes showing surprise as she softly called him Young Master, then looked towards the elderly man next to her.
Feng Boping smiled at Li Hao: “I’ll leave this person to you, use her as you see fit.”
Having said that, he then turned and left.
Li Hao inwardly sighed, feeling that Feng was extraordinarily considerate and thoughtful toward him.
After Feng had left, he called to the woman before him: “Come here.”
Princess Hongyue: “…”
But she obediently walked over.
Although she was innocent, being personally delivered to a Saint by the Emperor of the Divine Dynasty, she dared not resist.
These were beings who could obliterate her with a flick of a finger; she could only carefully serve them, yet her heart was filled with sorrow and resentment.
“Get ready, let’s begin.”
Li Hao said.
A look of humiliation crossed Princess Hongyue’s face, but she quickly covered it up, bowing her head and saying, “I am still a virgin, I hope the Young Master will be gentle…”
Then, she began to undo her clothes.
“What are you undressing for?”
Li Hao jumped in shock, then immediately realized she had misunderstood: “The chessboard is over there, never mind, I’ll get it.”
Saying so, he gestured with his hand, and the chessboard and chess box flew into his view.
He looked at her and said, “Let me see how capable you are.”
Princess Hongyue: “?”
What’s going on?
She stared at the young man in bewilderment, seeing him taking pieces with a calm demeanor, and instantly knew he wasn’t playing with her.
But to think, he had brought her all this way just to play chess?
Princess Hongyue was a bit dumbfounded and after a while hesitantly asked, “The Young Master likes to play chess?”
“Uh-huh.”
Li Hao nodded, not bothering to retort, why else would I seek you out if not for chess?
Upon hearing this, Princess Hongyue instantly understood her previous misinterpretation and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
“Then I shall accompany the Young Master for a game.”
Princess Hongyue spoke softly and delicately, remembering her earlier action of starting to undress, her cheeks reddened slightly.
“But be serious, if you can win, I will award you many divine pills and medicines; if you lose, there will be a penalty,” Li Hao firmly stated.
This was also to avoid her considering his status and going easy in the game.
Although, with his current level in Chess Tao, there were few rivals in this world, as not many were proficient in chess.
Princess Hongyue was inwardly startled, repeatedly voiced her humility, and her gaze turned serious, but she couldn’t help smirking inwardly. This Young Master, although she didn’t know his stature, must be a martial artist; if it were anything else, she could only accept her fate, but when it came to playing chess?

Her eyes shone with intelligence and confidence, and after the black and white pieces were distributed, she began to play seriously.
After a while, their game ended.
Li Hao was somewhat taken aback, the opponent’s chess ability was extremely strong, almost on par with his, even slightly stronger.
This first game, he actually lost by half a point.
Since reaching the Seventh Stage in Chess Tao, it had been a long time since Li Hao had experienced the feeling of defeat.
Compared to Li Hao, Hongyue was even more shocked.
She had been adept at chess since childhood, proficient in Chess Tao. Even the masters of princes would lose easily under her hands, but this young man in front of her made her break into a sweat from the tension.
“Sir, you are skilled at chess.”
Hongyue conceded, sincerely admiring.
Being at the top of Chess Tao, rivals were hard to come by, and loneliness was inevitable. Playing against Li Hao brought her the joy she had long missed.
“You are also impressive, which is no wonder you were brought here by Feng.”
Li Hao didn’t hesitate with his praise. Feng had chosen this remarkable woman, likely selected from many Divine Dynasties in the Little Thousand World, being one of the top in the realm of Chess Tao across it all.
Seeing his chess experience increase significantly, Li Hao showed a satisfied smile and casually opened the Heaven and Earth Space, taking out some Divine Pills reluctantly accepted from Lin Shanhai’s gifts and offered some to the woman before him.
“Seeing your aura, you are also partaking in Martial Arts, these pills can enhance your physique and consolidate your spirit, having excellent effects.”
Li Hao stated.
Hongyue took the Pills, glanced over the names on the gourds, and couldn’t help but be stunned. They were all rare Divine Pills she had only heard of, which even the favored ones of the Imperial Family would vie for.
“This…”
Hongyue was perplexed, realizing for the first time that by playing chess, she could actually obtain such valuable items.
