On a certain isolated island on the western coast of the East Continent, two individuals were playing chess.
One of them had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, clad in a black robe with a golden-patterned Vermilion Bird cloak.
The other was wearing a white robe, equally male, yet possessing an extraordinary beauty like that of a celestial being from a painting.
These two were none other than the Vermilion Bird Throne Fang Qingxiao, and the Demon King Kong Zheng from the Demon Capital Ming King Mansion!
Fang Qingxiao placed a black piece on the chessboard, saying, "Coming to the seaside today, the golden sand is gradually dispersing, the four lands are drawing closer, the speed of the Earth Tribulation is indeed more pressing than anticipated…"
Across from him, Kong Zheng casually replied, "Whether we come early or late, we come nonetheless. Once the tribulation arises, you and I naturally become like the chess pieces in this game, unable to break free."
