The candle flame extinguished, then reignited.
Nalan Qiutong frowned as she observed the scene within the tent; the scrolls on the wooden desk were neatly stacked, yet the surrounding void seemed as if it had been "frozen."
"Has someone been here?"
Nalan Qiutong instinctively spoke.

Tasked with meeting Chen Chong in person, she accelerated her pace, following the guidance of her Heart Lake, heading straight for the tent.

Chen Chong did not respond to the young woman before him.
Nalan Qiutong held a high position in the Li Kingdom.
She was the sole string skill disciple of the Da Li National Master. Ever since she appeared, rumors spread wildly outside, all claiming that Nalan Qiutong would be the next State Preceptor of Da Li. In a few years, she would become Li Country's chess player, competing against Chen Jingxuan.
