Won by a nose?

Boom!

Those four words blew their minds. They felt as if a bomb was set off near them. They went stiff and stood still.

The words ‘won by a nose’ rang repeatedly in their ears. They had goosebumps all over.

That was God!

How did you defeat God?

They did not need to know the details. They could already imagine it with those four words.

A cultivator hated the existence of a destined fate. They chose to become cultivators in the first place to defy God!

Since he went too far and could no longer become an Immortal, what was wrong with risking his life? So what?

He won against God! Won by a nose!

That was something all cultivators wanted to do but could never wish for, right?

At that moment, they worshipped the character Li Nianfan was talking about. That character must be at the same level as him—an absolute bigshot!

The Chess Fanatic was in a daze. He was spacing out, oblivious to the world around him. He looked like he finally saw his idol.

He was feeling emotional and breathing heavily. If it were him, could he ever beat God in chess?

After a long while, Lin Mufeng spoke up, “The character in this story is outstanding.”

Li Nianfan nodded. He was touched when he first heard the story, too. The story was not about the plot or the message, but about an unbreakable spirit!

The underdog spirit would never be uncool!

He looked at the sky and said, “It’s getting late. How about you three stay for a meal?”

Lin Mufeng and Sun Qianshan were overjoyed. They did not expect the Chess Fanatic to interrupt. “No, thanks. We shouldn’t continue bothering you, Mr. Li.”

Lin Mufeng and Sun Qianshan choked. They almost spat out blood.

They looked at the Chess Fanatic with an extremely complex gaze.

Idiot, stupid, useless teammate!

‘Do you know what Mr. Li eats?’

‘Do you know what a big opportunity that was?’

‘Do you have any idea what you just did?’

If it was not for Li Nianfan’s presence, they would have split his brain in half right there and then.

“Are you sure you’re not staying?” encouraged Li Nianfan.

“Err… This…that…we…” Lin Mufeng felt like his brain was loading at high speed. He was trying to come up with a sentence. He clenched his jaw and was about to shamelessly accept his invitation.

However, the Chess Fanatic spoke up again. “That won’t be necessary, Mr. Li. We’ve bothered you long enough today.”

Li Nianfan nodded. “Oh, okay.”

Lin Mufeng and Sun Qianshan went stiff. They could only get up and say, “Ha, Mr. Li, goodbye then.”

The Chess Fanatic blocked their opportunity for good. There was no turning back at that point.

“Yeah, bye.”

…

Lin Mufeng and Sun Qianshan immediately looked unhappy as soon as they walked out of the four-part architecture. They glared at the Chess Fanatic with hatred in their eyes. The Chess Fanatic felt embarrassed.

“What’s going on?” asked the Chess Fanatic.

“Why didn’t I realize that you’re a dumb pig?! Think about it. Mr. Li’s an expert. He wouldn’t be eating ordinary food, right? I shamelessly stayed until now. Why would I do that, you ask? It’s because I wanted to have a taste of his Heavenly food. It’s just a small wish of mine, and thanks to you, it’s all destroyed!” Lin Mufeng was pissed off. He ranted on and on at the Chess Fanatic.

Sun Qianshan almost cried. “Last time, I only had the leftovers. I thought I’d be able to get a proper meal this time. Now it’s gone!”

“Sorry,” the Chess Fanatic said in a very apologetic tone.

He stopped and said, “I feel like there’s a deeper meaning in Mr. Li’s words, but I can’t seem to solve the riddle. I feel like it’s right in front of my eyes but I just don’t get it. That’s why I was in such a rush to leave.”

“Deeper meaning?” Lin Mufeng and Sun Qianshan raised their eyebrows and fell into deep thought.

They were conscious of staying respectful ever since they stepped inside. They were in shock after hearing that story but did not put much thought into it.

The Chess Fanatic reminded them and Lin Mufeng almost jumped.

How could he forget?

Every word that the expert said would have some sort of mystery to it. Furthermore, the expert told them a story. There must be a hint in there!

He needed time to process it.

Suddenly, Sun Qianshan widened his eyes fearfully. “Do you think Mr. Li’s trying to mimic the character in the story? To beat God?”

Gasp—

Lin Mufeng and the Chess Fanatic gasped at the same time. Suddenly, they had cold sweat all over.

It was a big possibility!

Lin Mufeng said in a trembling voice, “If that’s the case, Mr. Li might be saying that he wants us to be his chess pieces. To battle God in chess!”

In the story, the character used his life as a trade for the final chess piece before he defeated God. The expert would obviously want to pick his chess pieces, too!

He was trembling, not because he was afraid, but because he was excited!

Just the thought of battling God made them pumped.

They were aware of who they were. They could never battle God, but they could go against God as chess pieces. Even though they were just chess pieces, they would be proud chess pieces!

It was the ultimate honor!

Sun Qianshan looked up at the moon, too. He said, “Are you saying that Mr. Li… accepts us as his chess pieces?”

“Most probably,” Lin Mufeng groaned and said. “I think we impressed the expert with the refrigerator mission, so he’s accepted us as his chess pieces. It means we passed the test.”

Sun Qianshan laughed. “Haha, awesome! This means we’re on the expert’s team.”

Lin Mufeng got serious and said, “Remember not to get cocky. We’re just chess pieces. Mr. Li must have other candidates, so we’re not the only ones. We need to step it up from now on.”

“You’re right!” Sun Qianshan and the Chess Fanatic nodded at the same time.

Sun Qianshan and Lin Mufeng were energetic. The Chess Fanatic, on the other hand, furrowed his brows and mumbled, “Why do I feel like I’m missing something?”

Lin Mufeng smiled and advised him, “Every word said by the expert has some sort of mystery to it. You should try to recall his words and decode the meaning from there.”

The Chess Fanatic took a deep breath and focused. He tried his best to recall every word from the expert.

He recalled when the expert rejected him as his student. He suddenly wore that same sad facial expression again.

However, he snapped out of it in the next moment. He suddenly had an epiphany.

He thought about when Li Nianfan rejected him. “You’re a cultivator. Chess is just my hobby. How could I take you in as my student?”
