Attacked by an Assassin!

Inside the secrecy of a secluded room…

An adorned chessboard was laid out…

The black and white cavalry soldiers were engaged in a battle. And the battle had turned very bitter.

"Brother Wen, how do you feel about today's events?" His Majesty gently put down his piece on the board. His actions issued a loud 'pop' sound.

Wen Cangyu was seated opposite to him. He was dressed in ink-black attire. This was the first that the Emperor had seen his best friend adorn such a dark choice of clothing inside the Imperial Palace.

"It is difficult to determine. There was no Qi fluctuation on his body; that I'm certain of," Wen Cangyu's facial expression remained stagnant. However, his eyes flickered as he saw his white pawn falling to the board.
