Chapter 391: All is fair in war, you are cheating again

Xu Yang quietly set up a protective formation on the side to avoid making too much noise and disturbing others.

"Come on, sister."

Yuan Kexuan was also prepared.

Seeing that the war was about to break out, Xu Yang immediately became focused and stared at the battle situation seriously.

"Scissors!"

"burden!"

Yuan Kexuan and Ji Hongluan's voices sounded almost at the same time. Yuan Kexuan took out a pair of scissors, and Ji Hongluan took out a bundle.

?

"So it's best of three?!"

Xu Yang felt a little amused and helpless. He had been a little worried that the relationship between the two sides would become strained after seeing the tense situation on both sides. Now it seemed that he had been thinking too much. There was even no need to set up a formation. After all, just making the "Scissors, Bag and Hammer" gesture would not even hurt the air, let alone attract other people's attention.

As a witness, Xu Yang adhered to the concept of fairness, justice and openness, and announced with a serious look:

"Xuan'er wins the first round. Let's start the second round."

Yuan Kexuan said in a cold voice:

"Sister, if you give up now, it's not too late."

Ji Hongluan frowned slightly and said, "You only won one round against me. There are two rounds left. It is still unknown who will win."

According to Xu Yang's understanding of Xuan'er, in terms of 'Scissors, Bag, and Hammer', as long as Xuan'er wants to play seriously, no one can beat her even if she cheats, because she has a clear sword heart and can judge the situation by capturing other people's emotions. Therefore, Xiao Hongluan's loss is a foregone conclusion. However, it still depends on whether Xuan'er can feel at ease. After all, there is a big difference between one loss and two wins and three games and three wins.

Yuan Kexuan took the lead: "Hammer!"

Ji Hongluan's voice slowed down a bit, and she waited until Yuan Kexuan had already made a move before she stretched out her hand: "Bag, haha, I won this time."

She stretched out her palm and wrapped Yuan Kexuan's fist in it, her face beaming with joy and looking very proud.

Yuan Kouxuan frowned, looked at Xu Yang, and asked, "Master, can this game be counted?"

Before Xu Yang could speak, Ji Hongluan became anxious and said:

"Why not? As the saying goes, all is fair in war. We didn't say we couldn't do this in the beginning!"

Yuan Kexuan didn't listen to Ji Hongluan's explanation, but stared at Xu Yang.

When the abyss was staring at Xu Yang, Xu Yang was also staring at the abyss, cough cough...

"Xuan'er, I am here to cooperate with you and I am also doing my best to perform!"

Xu Yang pretended to ponder for a moment, then looked at Yuan Kexuan in confusion and said, "Xuan'er, the rules were not made clear at the beginning. There is indeed no restriction on Xiao Hongluan from doing such things, so Xiao Hongluan should still win this round!"

When Ji Hongluan heard that Xu Yang favored her, she was so happy that she almost died. As expected, in the heart of this evil disciple, her status as a master was very important, at least more important than Xuan'er.

Yuan Kexuan noticed Ji Hongluan's expression and said nothing more: "Master, let's play the next round."

Ji Hongluan straightened her back and acted very confidently: "Xuan'er, you will definitely lose the next round. Then you just need to be humble and humble. As your elder sister, I will definitely take good care of you."

After saying that, Ji Hongluan's expression became serious. The next game would determine whether she would be the older sister or the younger sister, so she couldn't afford to be careless in the slightest.

Bang!

Her heartbeat inexplicably began to accelerate. Ji Hongluan became very nervous, her heartstrings were tense, and her breathing became extremely careful.

Yuan Kexuan, on the other hand, did not change at all. Her face was extremely calm, as if she was sure of winning. She spoke again: "Scissors!"

As soon as she spoke, Ji Hongluan said excitedly: "Hum, Xuan'er, I won. I'm so humbled, so humbled..."

"Sister, please look carefully at what I am offering!" A faint smile finally appeared on Yuan Kexuan's face.

Ji Hongluan's voice paused, and she looked down at the gesture made by Yuan Kexuan in confusion.

Um?!

"Why did you say it was a baggage? Didn't you say scissors?"

Ji Hongluan widened her eyes, looked at Yuan Kexuan in disbelief, and said.

Yuan Kexuan responded slowly, "All's fair in war, sister."

"No, this game doesn't count. I don't accept it."

When Ji Hongluan thought about calling Yuan Kexuan sister, she was unwilling to do so and immediately started to act like a spoiled brat. She didn't look like the head of the Ji family who had the final say at all and was very undignified:

"Xu Lang, do you think what I said makes sense? Xuan'er is not sincere in what she says, so it doesn't count, right?"

Ji Hongluan hugged Xu Yang's arm and acted coquettishly. In order to avoid calling Yuan Kexuan "sister", she tried every means.

Xu Yang glanced at Yuan Kouxuan, who was also looking at her. The master and disciple looked at each other, and they understood each other's minds. Xu Yang instantly understood Xuan'er's thoughts. She not only wanted to fish, but also wanted the fish to be convinced by the fishing, and she didn't want to embarrass her as a master:

"Xuan'er, how about best of five?"

"Well, Xuan'er will listen to Master."

Yuan Kexuan nodded.

This made Ji Hongluan very happy: "Xuan'er, let's talk now. No tricks are allowed. Everything should be done in accordance with the rules."

Yuan Kexuan didn't even want to say anything to Ji Hongluan. She was the one who was shady first, and she was the one who regretted it later:

"Let's make it quick and decisive!"

The two quickly started fighting and attacked together. Ji Hongluan suppressed Yuan Kexuan's baggage with a pair of scissors in one hand. This made Ji Hongluan more confident. She thought that her previous loss to Yuan Kexuan was entirely due to luck. Now her luck has turned and there is no reason for her to lose again. She will definitely be able to completely suppress Yuan Kexuan.

Then in the fifth round, he was defeated miserably by Yuan Kexuan's hammer with the scissors.

She didn't believe it: "Come again!"

Yuan Kexuan naturally accepted the challenge. She had put so much effort into making a nest, so there was no way she would let the fish escape halfway.

So, the two of them played from best of five games to best of sixteen games in thirty games, which made Ji Hongluan begin to doubt her life. Why was she always one step behind? She was about to win, but in the end she was defeated miserably by Xuan'er. If it weren't for the fairness and justice of 'Scissors, Bag, and Hammer', she would have suspected that someone was manipulating it behind the scenes.

"Sister, are you convinced?"

Yuan Kexuan had a natural temperament and looked like a flawless grandmaster. He looked at Ji Hongluan and spoke concisely.

Ji Hongluan looked down at the hammer she had finally chosen, and then looked at the cloth Yuan Kexuan had chosen. Even though she was reluctant, she could only say dejectedly:

"I give in. I'll go clean up the mess!"

Yuan Kouxuan raised his eyebrows: "Are you cheating again?"

Ji Hongluan blinked her eyes and said with a smile: "I never told you what the bet is, so Xuan'er, how can you say that I am cheating?"

Yuan Kexuan was speechless: "..."
