The City's Strongest Son-in-law-Chapter 180: Another Disciple

Liu Chen furrowed his brows. What was this old guy trying to do? Why did he want Sima Chenguang to come out?

Soon Liu Chen thought of another reason, feeling somewhat angry inside. This old guy was planning to make him a stepping stone for Sima Chenguang! freёnovelkiss-com

"Grandpa Liu, are you really afraid to accept the challenge?" Sima Chenguang said provocatively.

Just then, Liu Chen finally saw Su Changfeng coming in and replied, "How do I say this? I am your elder, if I played chess with you and won, it wouldn’t be glorious. Since that’s the case, why don’t I let my disciple come out instead? If my disciple loses, it’s not too late for us to play."

When Liu Chen said this, the members were all looking at Zhao Wen. They knew Liu Chen had accepted two disciples, one was Li Wen, and the other was Zhao Wen.

But Li Wen had been expelled by Liu Chen a few days ago, so the only one who could step in for him was Zhao Wen.

However, Zhao Wen’s skill wasn’t very impressive now. If Li Wen were to take part, these people would understand, but sending Zhao Wen in seemed like sending her to her death?

At this moment, Su Changfeng was already by Gu Changsheng’s side. Since he arrived late, he wasn’t clear on what the situation was.

"President, with Zhao Wen’s current level, she’s not a match for Senior Huangfu’s disciple, right? I suggest you don’t waste that time and go directly on stage.

"Indeed, Zhao Wen absolutely can’t win."

"We all know her capability, President."

Hearing these people’s words, although Zhao Wen was unhappy inside, she could only swallow her pride because what they said was true. She knew her own level.

This Sima Chenguang seemed strong, even if she accepted the challenge, it would just be humiliating.

"I didn’t say I want Zhao Wen to go on stage, actually, I have a disciple for a long time, you guys just don’t know." Liu Chen said bravely, without discussing this matter with Su Changfeng beforehand, now unsure if Su Changfeng would agree, but at this point, he had no choice but to say so.

"Another disciple?"

"Who is it? Why didn’t we know before?"

"Who’s your disciple, President?"

Liu Chen pointed to Su Changfeng and said, "It’s him."

"Him?"

"Who is he? I’ve never seen him before."

"He hasn’t even joined the association, but he’s allowed to be Liu Chen’s disciple? Is this a joke?"

Amid these confused expressions, Su Changfeng was perplexed too. Previously he was just supposed to play chess on behalf of Liu Chen, why did it turn into becoming his disciple?

"In what you told me, you never mentioned having to pretend to be a disciple, old man." Su Changfeng said quietly to Gu Changsheng.

"Just helping him out a bit, Liu Chen, this old guy, is also cornered." Gu Changsheng replied with a smile, understanding Liu Chen’s predicament and expecting just a simple pretense as a disciple, it wasn’t a big deal.

"Isn’t he taking advantage of you? Aren’t you angry?" Su Changfeng laughed.

"What does this have to do with me?" Gu Changsheng asked puzzled.

"I’m your disciple, and now I became his disciple, which makes you Grandpa Liu’s grand-disciple!" Su Changfeng said.

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng’s expression immediately turned sour. Until now he hadn’t realized what he had lost, suddenly becoming Liu Chen’s grand-disciple!

"That old guy..." Gu Changsheng looked viciously, if it were anywhere else, he’d certainly demand an explanation from Liu Chen.

"Sigh." Su Changfeng suddenly sighed and said, "If I knew from the start that Grandpa Liu was going to play against Huangfu Heibai, I wouldn’t have come."

Towards Huangfu Heibai, a grandmaster-level figure in the Chinese Go community, Su Changfeng felt great respect inside. This person was regarded as the pinnacle of the Chinese Go world, not implying that no one could beat him, but because of Huangfu Heibai’s official statistics, the titles he won are currently unmatched.

"What? Are you intimidated? Have you played against him?" Gu Changsheng asked.

"No, someone of his caliber wouldn’t play against a commoner like me." Su Changfeng replied.

"Now the opportunity is right in front of you, if you can defeat him, you will definitely become famous." Gu Changsheng stated, eager for a challenge.

Su Changfeng shook his head directly, defeating Huangfu Heibai wasn’t even conceivable for him. Su Changfeng’s understanding of Go mostly came from Huangfu Heibai, in a way, Huangfu Heibai could be seen as half of Su Changfeng’s mentor.

However, if he wanted to cause some trouble for Huangfu Heibai, Su Changfeng was somewhat confident.

Su Changfeng walked up to Liu Chen with a smile, given the current situation, Su Changfeng would certainly give Liu Chen face, as Liu Chen had considerable influence in Hai City.

"It’s an honor to represent my mentor in this match." Su Changfeng said.

Liu Chen looked gratefully at Su Changfeng. If Su Changfeng didn’t join his act, this time wouldn’t just mean losing face in the chess match.

Shangguan Baihe looked disdainfully at Su Changfeng and said, "Alright, wait till this disciple loses, then you can go on stage, but I advise you to be well-prepared."

Huangfu Heibai was particularly confident in Sima Chenguang’s abilities because he had put significant effort into nurturing this disciple. If he couldn’t even defeat Liu Chen’s disciple, it would have been all wasted effort.

"Sigh, apparently I have to face you, hurry up, my time is not to be wasted on you." Sima Chenguang acted disinterestedly, as if playing chess with Su Changfeng sapped his motivation.

Zhao Wen brought over the chessboard, Sima Chenguang used the white pieces, Su Changfeng used the black pieces, and the match officially began.

The people around all craned their heads, Liu Chen was particularly nervous as well, if Su Changfeng couldn’t defeat Sima Chenguang, this time he wouldn’t escape unscathed.

If Su Changfeng lost, that essentially meant his defeat, and his face would be indiscriminately trampled by Huangfu Heibai.

Only Huangfu Heibai seemed unconcerned, he didn’t even glance at the chess process; winning was assured, so watching the process was unnecessary.

Observers remain silent when the match begins, inside the entire venue, everyone seriously watches the changes in the situation on the board.

People believed there was an unreachable gap in strength between Huangfu Heibai and Liu Chen, so naturally, there would be significant differences between each of their disciples’ abilities. However, as the chess match started unfolding, everyone’s expressions have shifted notably.
