"You don't believe me? Then do you want to take a bet?" Fang Zhengzhi smiled.

"Alright, what do you want to bet with?" Yun Qingwu knew that Fang Zhengzhi would say that. She nodded right away without feeling surprised. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

"The remaining eight Maps of Access to Heaven. If you lose, you will tell me where they are, what do you think about that?"

"What if you lost?"

"I will give you this Blazing Qilin Spear. You should know that this Blazing Qilin Spear is one of the ten greatest treasures in the Great Xia Dynasty. It is extremely powerful at attacking." Fang Zhengzhi gave a look as if Yun Qingwu had a great advantage.

Hearing that, Yun Qingwu smiled.

A bright radiance shone on her pale face. Her appearance was exactly like the saying that went "she revealed a hundred charms when she turned around and smiled".

Although the Blazing Qilin Spear was one of the greatest treasures, Yun Qingwu did not have many uses for it.

Most importantly…

The Blazing Qilin Spear was Ping Yang's weapon.

Fang Zhengzhi used the Blazing Qilin Spear to bet with Yun Qingwu. Not to mention the difference in terms of price, just the shamelessness of Fang Zhengzhi was impressive enough.

"I want the "Guangling Painting". If you lose, you have to give me the "Guangling Painting"." Yun Qingwu stated her deal in a straightforward manner after smiling.

"No way, the "Guangling Painting" was formed by combining the 28 Maps of Access to Heaven. I will suffer a great loss if I used it for this bet." Fang Zhengzhi gave her an outright rejection.

"But I'm the one who combined the "Guangling Painting"."

"I saved your life. I have already repaid your favor."

"Shameless." Yun Qingwu said as she heard Fang Zhengzhi. After pondering for a while, she said again, "Then I'll use my father's Black-Golden Wings to bet with you."

"The Black-Golden Wings can't work too. I think it's pretty useful, I can't give it to you." Fang Zhengzhi shook his head again.

"So you are scared of losing?"

"Do you think I will be scared…" Halfway through his sentence, Fang Zhengzhi suddenly realized Yun Qingwu was prodding him. However, unfortunately, would he get tricked?

The answer was clearly…

Yes.

"Alright, I will bet with you using the Black-Golden Wings, how will I f*cking lose?" Fang Zhengzhi stopped negotiating and agreed with the terms Yun Qingwu said.

A gaze flashed across Yun Qingwu's eyes.

The Black-Golden Wings?

Was Fang Zhengzhi really confident that he could deduce where the 'Heavenly Yuan' was with only two tries? It was impossible.

How could he do it?

Yun Qingwu was slightly confused as she was very sure that Fang Zhengzhi would not be better than her in terms of making deductions. However, Fang Zhengzhi looked extremely confident.

"Alright, then let's begin." Yun Qingwu was slightly confused but she was curious to see how Fang Zhengzhi would do it.

Fang Zhengzhi was not hesitant.

Since they had finished negotiating the terms, it was time to show off. Of course, he had to first find the connections between the different chess pieces.

Fang Zhengzhi thought it would require some time and he could use this time to observe his surroundings and the entire plot setting.

However, he had made a miscalculation.

That was because Yun Qingwu was beside him.

With Yun Qingwu's intelligence, it was not difficult at all for her to find something wrong in the forest and discover the connections from there.

After 15 minutes, Yun Qingwu pointed out a line of nine caves in one of the forests and nodded to Fang Zhengzhi.

"This should be the path connecting to the other chess pieces." Yun Qingwu was very confident and looked at Fang Zhengzhi. "Which cave should we enter?"

"The first one is a trial. Any one would do." Fang Zhengzhi sighed in his heart as he looked at the nine caves and the trees which were blocking the entrances of the caves.

F*ck… Yun Qingwu was so good at looking for things!

If not for Yun Qingwu, it would be extremely difficult for him to find that hidden spot.

Even if he managed to find it, he would definitely need a long time.

Indeed, everything became much simpler with Yun Qingwu. Perhaps that was the benefits of saving Yun Qingwu.

"Alright, I will choose this." Yun Qingwu nodded her head and did not seem to be suspicious of Fang Zhengzhi's "theory of choosing randomly". Instead, she randomly chose the nearest cave and walked in.

Fang Zhengzhi smiled and followed closely behind Yun Qingwu. The cave was dark and damp but there were no signs of danger.

Almost instantly, he saw the light at the other end of the cave.

"We have reached." Yun Qingwu's voice was heard. She had already walked out of the cave and entered another chess piece.

"Hmm." Fang Zhengzhi nodded and stepped out of the cave.

The scenery of the new venue looked similar to that of the world they were in previously.

He could even hear the flow of water.

If he was correct, there should be another pond nearby and it would lead to the mountain he had come from.

Then, what was left was for him to start the "deductions".

"The sound of the water came from the Southwest direction… that means the first chess piece that Yun Qingwu and I had stepped into is somewhere in the Southwest…" Fang Zhengzhi pretended to look around and make a random mark at the entrance of the cave. Then, thoughts began to run through his mind.

Yun Qingwu was also making some deductions.

However, as compared to Fang Zhengzhi, Yun Qingwu's deductions were more legitimate. Not only was she listening to where the sound of the water came from, but she was also using her fingers to draw something in the palm of her other hand.

Fang Zhengzhi took a quick glance and it looked like a formation.

He could not see the exact formation because Yun Qingwu did not draw the full picture out but only made dots.

"Have you figured it out?" After a long time of gesturing, Yun Qingwu finally stopped and looked at Fang Zhengzhi.

"Hmm, I had figured it out long ago. Come with me." Fang Zhengzhi raised his chest and said confidently.

"So fast?" Yun Qingwu looked suspiciously at Fang Zhengzhi.

She thought she was extremely gifted in making deductions and calculations.

But Fang Zhengzhi said he had completed it faster than her?

Would she believe it?

Yun Qingwu did not believe him but still nodded her head slightly and continued to look for other paths that connected with the other chess pieces.

With her earlier experience, she was much faster now.

In less than ten minutes' time, they had reached another location with nine caves. It looked almost identical to the previous row of caves in terms of the number and arrangement of caves.

36 Heavenly Stars Formation.

Using the chessboard to set the scene, all the mountains were used as chess pieces. The p.a.w.ns were therefore almost identical and did not have many differences.

"Which one should we choose?" asked Yun Qingwu.

"Definitely the second one." Fang Zhengzhi pointed at the second cave without hesitation and walked in with big strides.

"The second one?" Yun Qingwu frowned slightly as based on her deductions, the seventh, eighth and ninth caves had a much higher probability.

Why did he choose the second cave?

Did she make the wrong deductions?

Yun Qingwu started to question herself even more but did not raise her doubts as, after all, she was not fully confident.

She could only continue walking with Fang Zhengzhi.

After a short while, both of them pa.s.sed through the caves and reached the location where the third "chess piece" was at. The location had the same mountain and sound of flowing water.

The only difference was that the direction of the flow of water changed to a southeast direction,

"…" Fang Zhengzhi listened to where the flow of water came from and his eyes twitched. If he did not hear wrongly, he had chosen the wrong cave.

After all, it was common sense.

When he entered the second chess piece, the sound of water came from the southeast direction. If he had chosen the correct cave, the water would still flow from the southeast direction.

That was slightly awkward.

Lady luck was not with him.

However, Fang Zhengzhi did not mind at all. It was extremely normal for him to make a mistake as he was picking from nine caves.

In fact…

It would be weird if he managed to get it right in one try.

"I think you chose the wrong cave." Yun Qingwu turned and asked Fang Zhengzhi when she realized the direction of the flow of water was different.

"You're right." Fang Zhengzhi shook his head.

"The water sounds like it came from the southeast but we ought to be at the southwest." Yun Qingwu said to prove that Fang Zhengzhi was wrong.

Fang Zhengzhi blushed slightly.

What the f*ck!

Yun Qingwu was indeed too intelligent. She managed to spot Fang Zhengzhi's mistake immediately, so what should he do?

Remain calm!

Fang Zhengzhi was extremely calm.

"What does it mean if we went from southwest to southeast?" Fang Zhengzhi asked Yun Qingwu instead of replying her.

"What does it mean?" Yun Qingwu asked too.

"This means that our first p.a.w.n was at the southeast and we stepped onto the second p.a.w.n wrongly and went to the southwest direction. Thanks to my correct judgment, we found our way back to the southeast and are one step closer to the 'Heavenly Yuan'. Do you understand now?" Fang Zhengzhi explained very seriously.

"…" Yun Qingwu's lips moved and fell deep in thought before she nodded. "Hmm, then let's continue walking."

"That's right, you should trust me." Fang Zhengzhi patted his own chest confidently.

Yun Qingwu stopped making any comments. Instead, she mumbled to herself and began to move her finger on her palm again.

This continued for a while before Yun Qingwu's eyes lit up.

"After three tries, I think she managed to solve it?" Fang Zhengzhi guessed as he saw Yun Qingwu's eyes light up.

'Looks like it is time to ask her about what she found out.'

Fang Zhengzhi continued walking as he thought about how to ask Yun Qingwu about it.

Soon after, they reached the pond.

"You are sweating, do you want to take another shower while I wait for you here?" asked Fang Zhengzhi as he pointed at the water in the pond.

"It's alright, Nangong Mu is probably close to finding out the location of the 'Heavenly Yuan'. I can still last a while longer." Yun Qingwu rejected Fang Zhengzhi's offer.

"Alright, then let's hurry up." Fang Zhengzhi did not insist.

"Hmm." Yun Qingwu nodded and followed him closely.

Soon after, they found nine more caves.

Yun Qingwu looked much calmer this time. She did not even take an extra look at the nine caves.

"Did you figure out too?" Fang Zhengzhi wanted to look for the answer from Yun Qingwu's gaze but she, unfortunately, did not take a glance at the caves.

"Somewhat." Yun Qingwu nodded slightly.

"Somewhat? Does that mean your answer is unconfirmed? How about this, I shall be kind and cross-check my answer with yours. This also helps me to verify that you can indeed find the correct way in three tries," said Fang Zhengzhi.

"Cross-check with my answer?" Yun Qingwu was slightly shocked.

"Yes, you should know that I'm trying to help you." Fang Zhengzhi winked at Yun Qingwu. "You should be grateful as I'm helping you to improve."

"Thank you but I don't need it." Yun Qingwu wanted to smile but managed to hold it in. Instead, she shook her head and rejected Fang Zhengzhi's "kind offer".

"Sigh… Looks like you won't be able to improve since you are not willing to learn." Fang Zhengzhi sighed as though it was a pity.

Of course, he actually wanted to curse.

F*ck!

She did not get tricked?

How was it possible for her to not get tricked with Fang Zhengzhi's "flawless" acting skills?

What the h.e.l.l!

Yun Qingwu was indeed difficult to fool around with. Fang Zhengzhi had to be more realistic with his acting instead of being so exaggerated.

Fang Zhengzhi was slightly annoyed.

However, it was too difficult for him to think of another way to trick Yun Qingwu in such a short period of time. It was unavoidable for him to exaggerate occasionally.

However, there came the problem…

Which of the nine caves should he choose?

Forget it.

Pick a random one.

Perhaps he would be lucky enough to pick one that had water flowing from the southeast direction.

"The third one." Fang Zhengzhi pointed at the third cave, pulled Yun Qingwu along as he walked towards it with huge strides.
