"I really didn't take it. It was empty when I opened it. Maybe there was nothing in your treasure chest to begin with," Yun Qingyang answered seriously. Ma Feifei glanced at Yun Qingyang's eyes.

As he watched, he actually started to believe it...

"Is there really none?" Ma Feifei turned his head to look at the two treasure chests beneath him, then glanced at his own treasure chest that had fallen not far away.

"Okay, get up first, and let's open all these treasure chests and see if there's anything inside, alright? Don't worry, I definitely won't take any of the spoils you worked so hard to earn." Ma Feifei said, panting heavily. He was already feeling a bit 'uncomfortable' from being pressed down, and if this continued, he was sure he would make a fool of himself.

"You said you wouldn't covet my treasure."

"Must!"

Only after receiving Ma Feifei's assurance did Yun Qingyang finally lift her leg off Ma Feifei's back.

Ma Feifei didn't get up; he simply hugged the treasure chest and grabbed the clasp to open it.

"Thump! The 'chariot' has robbed the 'general' of his treasure chest."

"..."

"Calm down, it's just a formality, don't panic." Ma Feifei gestured to the somewhat anxious Yun Qingyang to calm down.

Then he pulled it apart.

"Ding ding ding~"

A flash of golden light appeared, and a bright red short sword lay there silently.

"Another semi-divine artifact." Ma Feifei looked at the short sword in the treasure chest with envy, increasingly unwilling to believe that his treasure chest was empty.

It must have been Yun Qingyang who took it secretly.

Thinking of this, Ma Feifei turned to another seven-colored treasure chest, and the same reminder began to appear in the maze again.

Ma Feifei ignored it completely and opened it directly. However, to her surprise, no golden light flashed out from the treasure chest this time. Not only that, the treasure chest was completely empty!

"Wow, is that really possible?" Ma Feifei said, somewhat surprised.

"I'm not lying to you, this treasure chest should have a chance to yield treasures. The treasure chest you had just had was the same as this one; nothing came out." Despite the chest not yielding any treasures, Yun Qingyang showed no sign of being upset. Instead, she continued to talk to Ma Feifei about it.

"Then why did you run away?" Ma Feifei actually believed Yun Qingyang's words in her heart, but she still had to be stubborn a couple of times.

"I had to run! There was danger just now; the enemy's cannon was going to kill me." Yun Qingyang closed the treasure chest, then picked it up again, but didn't take out the short sword inside.

Upon hearing this, Ma Feifei turned his attention to the virtual chessboard and noticed that on the straight line to their left, across the Chu River, a red dot was constantly moving in their direction. This straight line was exactly where Ma Feifei and Yun Qingyang had just been standing.

According to Yun Qingyang, if the opponent has a cannon, it can move freely across the entire board, especially when a piece is blocking its way. In such cases, it can trigger an attack, directly bypassing the piece in front of it to kill another piece.

It's like a skill that can strike from a distance. When Yun Qingyang sensed danger, it must have been because he was blocking the cannon. The cannon could then use him as a springboard to directly threaten Yun Qingyang, the general.

"Ma Feifei." Just as Ma Feifei was deep in thought, Yun Qingyang suddenly spoke up.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Ma Feifei sat on his treasure chest, staring blankly at the virtual chessboard.

"Why don't we go outside?" Yun Qingyang said softly.

"Why?" Ma Feifei asked, puzzled. The game wasn't even finished yet, why was he leaving already?

"I'm afraid someone will steal the treasure chest," Yun Qingyang said weakly.

Once they entered the Treasure-Snatching Chessboard, all their spatial storage items became ineffective, and their chess pieces and clothes had no pockets, so the treasures in the chests could only be stored inside the chests.

This would create a risk that the treasure chest could be stolen a second time.

Yun Qingyang was clearly aware of this problem, which is why she decided to leave directly, since she had already counted several treasure chests.

Even Yun Qingyang obtained the Book Spirit Stone from his own golden treasure chest thanks to Ma Feifei's help in opening it.

Ma Feifei was even certain that Yun Qingyang was the piece Harvest the most from so far.

However, if these were all the benefits, Ma Feifei felt that it would be a Great Desolation Relic, which are only opened once every five hundred years.

"Thump! The enemy's 'Rook' has stolen our 'Pawn 3's' treasure chest. 'Pawn 3' is eliminated."

The three consecutive sounds startled everyone.

The enemy has finally landed on our territory and begun their attack!

"Thump! The enemy's 'horse' has stolen our 'pawn 4's' treasure chest. 'Pawn 4' is eliminated."

Another voice came, and the atmosphere instantly became much more tense.

Two consecutive sounds, although both were pawns eliminated, it was a very bad start.

Looking at the virtual chessboard, Feifei noticed that seven or eight red dots had appeared on her side of the board, rapidly approaching Yun Qingyang.

Clearly, their ultimate target is Yun Qingyang, or more accurately, Yun Qingyang's own identity.

However, few of the blue dots on the chessboard were moving towards them, which frustrated Ma Feifei.

"Let's hang in there a little longer. I feel like there are even bigger benefits waiting for us later." Ma Feifei didn't want to go out so soon.

Yun Qingyang glanced at Ma Feifei, then nodded, agreeing to his suggestion.

At this moment, Ma Feifei noticed several blue dots rushing rapidly towards them on the virtual chessboard, as if they had sensed something was wrong and were preparing to help protect their 'general'.

"I'm telling you, you can't steal other people's treasure chests later," Ma Feifei said with a serious expression. If Yun Qingyang hadn't tried to steal their own treasure chests, Ma Feifei felt the situation wouldn't be so bad right now.

Yun Qingyang nodded, placed the treasure chests side by side, sat on them, and looked around.

They were at a crossroads, with visibility in all directions. If they encountered enemies, they would have multiple escape options, which was quite advantageous.

"Thump! Our 'Rook' has killed the enemy 'Pawn', and we have obtained a treasure chest *1."

"Thump! Our 'vehicle' has destroyed the enemy's 'cannon', and we have obtained a treasure chest *1."

The voice of the Qi Xie came from above. Surprisingly, it wasn't the enemy killing our side, but our side killing the enemy.

"Who is it that's so fierce?" Ma Feifei looked at the virtual chessboard, where a single blue dot stood out starkly against a sea of red.
