My Waste Husband novel Chapter 1485

Henry, who was setting up the chessboard, was shocked. He looked up at the old man in the traditional Chinese suit.

The old man's head was lowered, still focused on setting up the chess board.

"Come on, boy, get the board ready."

Henry slowly moved the chess piece around the board in his hand and said, "Did you come here by accident, or on purpose?"

"I guess you could say that I did it on purpose, by also by accident." The old man answered, "I came here on purpose, but I met you by accident. I'm moving first again this round."

The old man began to move his chess piece as he spoke. This time, the old man's chess strategy was clearly different than it had been before. Some of his moves seemed ordinary, but were actually aggressive and led to many traps.

However, in terms of chess skills, the old man was much weaker than Henry. Even though his moves were more complicated and had improved greatly compared to before, he was still no match for Henry.

Although Henry was in a more advantageous position on the chess board, he frowned a little more with every step the old man took.

"The reason why the Seven Supreme Protectors of Mountain Heng occupied the Heng Mountain is no other than to guard it." The old man continued, "And when you fought the Seven Supreme Protectors of Heng Mountain when you first met them, haha, forgive me for speaking frankly, but both the kid in the citadel and those seven juniors in Heng Mountain are just paper tigers. In the eyes of the ordinary, they are Masters of Supremacy, but in the eyes of those who are above the third level of the Divine will, they are just a group of people who just enjoy having fun with shadow puppetry, right?"

Henry stared at the chessboard, not saying anything.

"However," the old man said with a smile, "there is still a disciple of the Elite Spirit Hall who could still put up a good fight. Aaron has grown quite a lot, and could be regarded as quite a figure in the Core. Him just showing up would instil fear in the hearts of men. After all, there are too many within the Elite Spirit Hall who would cause people to cower in fear. Has Sanford returned this time?"

Henry paused, then shook his head and replied, "Not yet." "Seeing that he hasn't returned, it could mean that his life is approaching its end. He had depleted a lot of energy in that great battle back then." The old man sighed. "However, that was inevitable. He went to the surface, you probably didn't know him yet, seeing how young you are. It looks like he's probably hiding somewhere to recuperate. I'm afraid it would be very difficult for him to make another move. Looking back at how powerful and proud Sanford was when he dominate every battle, so much so that everyone in the Core knew his name, yet now, countless youngsters of this generation are saying what a pity it was that they hadn't been born in that era, and that they weren't able to meet Sanford and learn his ways of becoming invincible."

"You seem to know a lot." Henry smiled and played the last move, checkmating the old man, "On the surface, there was a man, whom everyone feared when he was born, and when he died, everyone believed that they could have defeated him, but in fact, the moment they compared themselves with him, they had already lost."

"Hahaha, clever boy." The old man laughed and looked at the game of chess he had lost in front of him. "You seem to be mocking me."

"I'm just speaking the truth." Henry got up. "When you mentioned Sanford's name, your eyes were filled with a strong fighting spirit. I believe you'd also like to see how strong the Sanford, who shook the world, really is."

"You don't have to test me." The old man shook his head. "Sanford and I have met more than once and have fought more than once. I am no match for him, but I believe that I am not inferior to him, all I lack is an opportunity. Back then when we bowed before the Elite Spirit Hall together, he was accepted and became a handyman, but I was driven away by the Elite Spirit Hall. If I had also been accepted into the Elite Spirit Hall, I would have been able to defeat him."

"Great, I'll be sure to tell him what you've just said when I see him again later, and if he agrees to it, I'll tell him to come see you, but before that, you should tell me who you are." Henry nodded and said with a smile.
