It was already midnight when I walked out of Orchid Cottage.
At this hour, the streets were deserted.
Only a few scattered vehicles occasionally sped by.
I lit a cigarette and began to walk slowly forward.
Now, I had to take a good look back.
Since my debut, the people I have met and the things that have happened.
The mysterious Su Mei.
The Orchid Sect leader, who knew of me but whom I had never met.
Old Wu, who had always helped me.
And Uncle Zhong, who taught me the Jingua Eight Forms.
All these people seemed to know a lot about me.
But each of them was tight-lipped, unwilling to say anything directly.
I even had the feeling that everything I was doing now was clear to them.
As if they were watching from not far away.
Thinking of this, I couldn’t help but shiver.
Could it be that I was now walking in a chess game designed by others?
And I was just a pawn on the chessboard?
At the thought of this, I felt a chill run down my spine.
No way!
