Lin Fan stood quietly a short distance away, watching the two play chess.
The two who were originally playing chess in silence both looked towards Lin Fan.
Swoosh!
The black-clothed youth suddenly made a move, his black chess piece shooting towards Lin Fan like a cot, wrapped in swirling black light, aiming directly at Lin Fan.
Its speed was incredibly fast!
Lin Fan’s pupils suddenly contracted, as he realized that although the black chess piece seed to be shooting straightforwardly at him, it actually sealed off his avenues of escape. The speeding black piece contained countless variations within it.
For soone else, dodging the black-clothed youth’s black chess attack would be sowhat difficult.
But Lin Fan remained indifferent.
For Lin Fan had found the flaw in the black chess’s attack through the flaw-finding function of Universal Image.
By the ti the black chess was approaching Lin Fan, just about to hit and pierce through his body the next mont, Lin Fan’s body subtly shifted.
A slight motion was all it took to dodge the black chess attack.
Swoosh...
Another crisp sound, and the white-clothed youth also made his move.
His white chess piece seed to be charging with burning flas, and as the white chess was launched, Lin Fan suddenly realized that the temperature around him had soared.
The flas within the white chess grew larger and larger until they had filled an area of several zhang, brought forth by the white chess. Moreover, the flas were extrely fierce, and a re touch would probably burn one to nothingness.
Under these circumstances, it was simply impossible for Lin Fan to dodge.
But Lin Fan had no intention to dodge either.
He saw Lin Fan flick his finger, and a Golden Needle shot out abruptly.
The Golden Needle instantly pierced through the flas, colliding with the white chess, emitting a clear ringing sound. After that, both the white chess and Golden Needle fell to the ground.
The flas also disappeared without a trace!
Subsequently, neither the black-clothed nor the white-clothed youth made another move. They both looked at Lin Fan, their eyes containing an unfathomable taste.
Since neither of them spoke, Lin Fan remained silent too, also watching them.
For a mont, the atmosphere here beca extrely quiet.
There wasn’t the slightest sound.
Even ti seed to have co to a complete standstill here.
It was uncertain how much ti had passed before the black-clothed youth suddenly said, "Lin Fan?"
Lin Fan nodded but said nothing.
The black-clothed youth continued, "Rumors say you’re very powerful, and from what I see, you truly are extraordinary. To be honest, if not for the fact that you and I are in opposing camps, I’d really like to beco friends with you."
The black-clothed youth was very serious, and it was clear that he wasn’t lying; he truly admired Lin Fan.
And Lin Fan remained silent, still watching the two of them.
At this mont, Lin Fan was sowhat unclear about the intentions of these two fellows before him, so he felt it was better not to speak. Sotis, silence is indeed an art form.
The black-clothed youth continued, "Let introduce myself. My na is Liu Jin, of the Liu Family. On the Tiger List, I’m ranked forty-eighth."
"So he’s the expert ranked 48th on the Tiger List!"
Lin Fan thought to himself silently.
The ranking on the Tiger List, within the top fifty, there’s a huge gap in strength between each rank.
Don’t look at Lin Fan’s current rank of 51st on the Tiger List as only three places away from 48th, when in practice, the gap between them is really, really huge.
Lin Fan finally felt a trace of solemnity.
He knew that if he were to face this guy, he wouldn’t be assured victory.
Subsequently, Lin Fan glanced over at the young man in white.
Lin Fan was very curious about the identity of the young man in white.
Lin Fan knew that since the young man in white could play chess here with the young man in black, it implied that the identity of the young man in white must also be extraordinary.
The young man in white seed to know what Lin Fan was thinking, smiled, and then said, "My na is Hu Qiong, from the Hu Family, and I am ranked 45th on the Tiger List."
Another expert ranked within the top fifty on the Tiger List.
And he was even more formidable than Liu Jin.
When Hu Qiong spoke, his face carried a faint smile, giving off an air of easy grace.
However, Lin Fan was well aware that the arrival of these two was definitely not simple.
Lin Fan said, "The two of you, you’ve co to kill , haven’t you? If that’s the case, there’s no need for further talk, let’s get on with it!"
Lin Fan was already prepared to fight at any mont.
Although the two people in front of him were both ranked higher than Lin Fan on the Tiger List, Lin Fan still intended to battle them, knowing full well that he had so unknown trump cards at hand.
Moreover, Lin Fan truly believed that even if he were truly defeated, he would still be able to escape in the end.
On the contrary, Lin Fan was very eager to battle the two.
Such rare opponents were hard to find.
However, after hearing what Lin Fan had said, the young man in black, Liu Jin, shook his head and stated, "You’re mistaken, we’re not here to kill you, we’re here to observe you."
"To observe ?"
Lin Fan was sowhat surprised by this turn of events.
Liu Jin went on to say, "We’ve always been very curious about how soone who could so effortlessly kill a mber of our family actually asures up in strength. So, we decided to co and see for ourselves!"
After saying this, Liu Jin paused slightly before continuing, "Thankfully, you haven’t disappointed us."
Lin Fan asked, "Do you not plan to avenge your deceased family mbers?"
Liu Jin continued, "Vengeance, naturally, must be sought, but not now. When we’re in the True Martial Secret Realm, we’ll talk about it then. I heard that killing in the True Martial Secret Realm allows one to consecrate the energy within the realm with the blood of the slain, thereby obtaining an opportunity. Therefore, we plan to kill you in the True Martial Secret Realm, and then use your blood to consecrate the realm’s energy."
Liu Jin said this with a burst of joyful laughter, seemingly very pleased, and then continued to address Lin Fan, "Don’t you think this is a very interesting matter?"
As for the young man in white, Hu Qiong, he had been silent all the while, sitting there calmly, holding a white chess piece in his hand, he spoke sowhat impatiently, "Liu Jin, are you going to play chess or not?"
Liu Jin stood up and said, "Brother Hu, we will have more opportunities to pit our chess skills against each other. Today, I shall take my leave!"
After he finished speaking, Liu Jin’s body shot up into the sky with a sudden rush, and without seeing how he moved, his body had already disappeared into the horizon.
His departure was swift as the wind!
Liu Jin’s speed had reached its limit.
