"Clack."
Suddenly, something struck his forehead.
It wasn't hard, but its aim was absurdly precise. Right between his brows, without the slightest deviation.
Yun Qing's words caught in his throat, and the Qing Kitty far away suddenly tilted his head in puzzlement.
What was that?
What hidden weapon could hit him?
The thing bounced off his forehead, fell to the ground, and rolled twice before stopping.
Yun Qing looked down. A Go stone lay on the greenstone paving beside his feet, made of white jade, smooth and translucent, its surface still carrying a trace of extremely familiar immortal power.
Why did it look so familiar?
Yun Qing: "..."
He stared at the stone for half a breath. Wasn't this from the set of exquisite jade Go stones his Brother Huang always used?!
Before that thought had even finished turning over, the next instant,
"Clack."
Another Go stone struck his forehead.
The same head as before, the same spot, without the slightest deviation.
The Eldest Young Master Yun's competitive streak surfaced at a thoroughly inappropriate moment.
Another Go stone came down!
Kitty tilted his head at lightning speed!
"Thunk."
The stone made an utterly unreasonable turn in midair and once again struck the kitty squarely on the forehead.
Yun Qing: "??!"
Utterly bewildered, he instinctively caught the stone sliding down his forehead, looked down at it, then looked up at the sky.
White clouds drifted leisurely beneath lovely sunlight. There was nothing to see.
But there was that familiar sense of "I need you for something, but I can't be bothered to speak, so figure it out yourself."
Seriously, Brother Huang, why were you throwing things at me for fun?
If you needed something, just say it!
Above the Nine Heavens, on the Lotus Platform in the Chaos Sea.
