Chen Lin was still dealing with the ashes Wang Yunzhi had left behind when he suddenly sensed a change in Luo Xing and immediately looked over.
His spirits lifted at once.
"How are you feeling?"
With Wang Yunzhi's transformation as a warning, Chen Lin did not approach immediately. Instead, he readied his defenses and spoke to test Luo Xing's response.
Luo Xing rolled his neck and sat up on the bed.
"My lord, I'm doing well enough. It's just that I played chess for three days and nights, and my head feels ready to burst."
After speaking, he put on his shoes, got off the bed, and continued stretching his limbs.
Then he asked in bewilderment, "I was only inside for three days. Why does my body feel as though it's rusted stiff?"
"Three days?"
Chen Lin was slightly taken aback by his words.
"Are you sure?"
A possibility seemed to occur to him, and he immediately pressed for confirmation.
Luo Xing finished stretching, but his head still seemed somewhat muddled, and he swayed as he looked at Chen Lin.
"What's wrong, my lord? It was three days. There's no way I could misremember such a short time. Is something amiss?"
Chen Lin took a pill from his Storage Ring and tossed it to him. "A top-grade Body-Nourishing Pill. Take it first, and then we'll discuss the details."
"Thank you, my lord."
Luo Xing caught the pill and swallowed it without hesitation.
Then he held out his hand, revealing the black-and-white chess piece, with something glittering gold resting on it.
"My lord, the space inside was extremely small. There was only a chessboard, and I couldn't go anywhere. All I could do was play chess. I didn't find anything useful, either, just this one gold coin. I've disappointed you."
