TGCF react to future and past

Even though he tried to sound serious when admitting his loss but he didn't sound a least bit serious. There was grumbling before "if this round doesn't count then when will it count?"

Now the answer is clear. It counts when this guy wins. The level of generosity was almost insane. Even then no one dared to make a sound.

"congratulations sir, you have won"

Everyone made face then suddenly cheered loudly. "wow chengzu showed us beautiful loss"

Xie lian buried his face in his hands out of embarrassment.

"wasn't winner was personally taught by chengzu? He won because chengzu taught him well"

Listening to the voices all around Xie lian couldn't but smile, seeing his mirth hua cheng chuckled before giving a flick of his hand. Lang qianqiu dropped on the table.

"can't you be a bit gentle?" Lang qianqiu grumbled
"be grateful that he didn't gave you to the ghosts to cook" He Xuan said rolling his eyes.

Seeing this Xie lian ran helping him get up "are you ok"

"Yes, he was cheating but it's good that you won" Xie lian thought you're completely mistaken. If he didn't go easy on me even if the whole world turned into ashes I would still not be able to win you back.

"Yeah that's true" Mu Qing rolled his eyes.
"oh just how much i want to see your eyes pop out just because you roll it too much" feng xin said and they started arguing again.

Just as he was thinking that, there was suddenly a crisp tinkling of
bells, and the sound was followed by gasps of shock from all around. Xie Lian turned his head to look, and it turned out that Hua Cheng had finally emerged from behind the red silk curtains.

In his previous youthful form, Hua Cheng always sported a slightly
crooked ponytail. But now, his raven-black locks tumbled loose over his vibrant red clothing, and an evil aura radiated from his handsome figure. Only a thin braid on the right side, tied at the end with a red coral bead, brought a hint of mischief to the mix. The vambraces were silver, the straps
on his boots were silver, the belt was also silver, even the long, slender scimitar that hung at his waist was silver, its curve smooth and peculiar. Just like that long, slender blade, the man himself was slender and tall. He was leaning against the parted curtains with crossed arms and a faint smile.

"Ho ho?" Pei ming commented
Xie lian turned his head to look at hua cheng just to blush furiously when he saw that he has changed his form. Now sitting in his real form, already looking at Xie lian smiling.

"gege you beat me" Xie lian obviously knows what actually happened and said in registration "please stop teasing me"

Hua cheng quirked his brow "no why would I"

"why did our lord changed his skin again today?"

"I don't know but wow his new skin is killing me" a female ghost replied

"what do you mean killing you, you old hag you're already dead"

It seems that hua cheng never showed his this form in public also he changes his form often. Xie lian's mind goes back to the talk they had in puqi shrine after coming back from banyue pass.

"what if my real face is hideous? Would you still want to see?" hua cheng asked him. "I mean if its you then ofc I would love to. We're already friends so it's better if we know each other better" Xie lian explained.
