"... tail."
Wen Feiran blinked, not quite understanding at first. "What?"
Your Go website ID is "White Dragon Tail".
Wen Feiran immediately returned to the human world from hell, experiencing the relief of surviving a catastrophe, and also found this memory in some obscure corner.
He had nothing better to do, so he registered on a Go website, but the name "White Dragon" was already taken, so he just randomly added a character to the end.
This small act saved his life.
Wen Feiran hadn't studied facial expression management, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up. "Oh, that's it. I remember now. I just played a few rounds casually back then. I almost forgot about it if you hadn't mentioned it."
Zou Yuxing winked at him, "Don't be modest. Although you only played one game, your win rate was 100%. The former number one player on the leaderboard lost to you in the middle game. You practically became famous overnight, but you didn't continue playing after that."
"It's just something to pass the time when I'm bored," Wen Feiran continued, picking up where she left off. "Now that it's brought up again, I suddenly feel like playing it."
Zou Yuxing continued, "White Dragon seems to be a Go player, but there are very few records about him. Is your name related to him?"
"I really like him," Wen Feiran boasted shamelessly. "My grandfather passed down a chess manual to me, and I've liked him since I was very young. I idolize him, which is why I gave myself this name."
Viewers in the live stream noticed something strange.
[Why is Wen Feiran so natural this time, and even said so much? Didn't she always have that suicidal look on her face before?]
[Based on Ben Holmes' experience, there must be more to this story.]
[+1, Peanut completely agrees.]
[What other secrets could there be? Surely Wen Feiran isn't actually White Dragon himself? scratching head]
[Haha, if Wen Feiran were White Dragon, he'd be an immortal old demon! You're really joking.]
Chapter 39 Fools Have Fool's Luck
Although Zou Yuxing was always too carefree and unintentionally dealt him a fatal blow, he had done a great service this time. Wen Feiran hoped that he would ask a few more questions so that his identity could be confirmed.
Zou Yuxing didn't understand Go and couldn't ask any insightful questions. After chatting for five or six minutes, he gave up. But Wen Feiran wouldn't let him go. She pulled him to sit in front of the Go board and insisted on teaching him a few moves.
Zou Yuxing was not suited to chess, which requires concentration, and couldn't get into the zone at all. He could only look to Gu Suian for help.
Gu Suian walked over, Zou Yuxing, having received instructions, immediately moved aside.
"Let's have a plate," Gu Suian said.
Wen Feiran was somewhat surprised, but nodded nonetheless.
Zou Yuxing made it clear on camera, and Gu Suian indirectly proved his strength. Wen Feiran no longer needed to reply. Even if this matter continued to ferment online, since he was now using a fake identity, no one would associate him with White Dragon himself.
Wen Feiran breathed a long sigh of relief, finding Zou Yuxing more and more pleasing to the eye.
This live stream is coming to an end. If they can make it through, they will be able to leave the castle.
However, Meng Zizheng get over his mental hurdle. Even with Zou Yuxing's enthusiastic invitation, he refused to absorb their life points. When night fell, his life points were reset to zero, and he "died" in the game.
Zou Yuxing glanced at Wen Feiran on his left, then at Gu Suian on his right, utterly lacking in self-awareness, "It seems the three of us are the strongest."
Viewers in the live stream mercilessly exposed his lie.
Wake up, stop daydreaming.
[It's true what they say, fools have their luck. If I had Zou Yuxing's confidence, I wouldn't need to waste time on internal conflicts.]
I still remember how silly Zou Yuxing looked when he broke the woodpecker; it just goes to show that sometimes luck is also a part of skill.
[Wait a minute, Zou Yuxing is one thing, but how could Wen Feiran not know his own identity?]
[Maybe he's just an ordinary person. What bad intentions could someone with social anxiety possibly have?]
[Thank goodness that's how it is, otherwise, given Wen Feiran's intelligence, everyone would be finished.]
As night deepened, Zou Yuxing walked to the room door and waved cheerfully at them, "This should be the best night's sleep we've had here. Once we see the sun rise tomorrow morning, we can leave this awful place!"
After saying goodnight to him, Wen Feiran and Gu Suian returned to their respective rooms.
Viewers in the live stream thought the recording was about to end, and the screen went black. They reluctantly said goodbye to each other in the chat.
But suddenly, footsteps echoed in the dark live-streaming room. The person must have walked into the wide corridor, as their footsteps reverberated.
[Didn't recording already end? Is there a bonus scene?]
Who's wandering around like that in the middle of the night? It's terrifying!
[It's definitely Zou Yuxing. Is this kid sleepwalking?]
[First, we can rule out Gu Suian; Wen Feiran wouldn't dare go out in the middle of the night either, so there's only one answer left!]
The footsteps hidden in the darkness stopped, followed by the sound of a door being pushed open. In an eerie atmosphere, the candlelight flickered in the cold wind, leaving only a single point, but it did not go out. The light slowly spread out, illuminating the person behind.
Everyone assumed it was Zou Yuxing, who couldn't sleep and was just being mischievous. But when Wen Feiran's calm face appeared on the screen, almost everyone's brains went blank, and the screen was filled with questions: What exactly is Wen Feiran going to do?
Wen Feiran lowered his eyes, unable to read any emotion or information from his face. He walked forward step by step, as if sensing something telepathically, and suddenly stopped, staring at the altar in front of him.
He returned to the underground cell, where the iron chain in the middle had vanished, replaced by an intricately patterned and eerie circular platform, with the devil's symbol engraved on top.
