Xiao Jie carefully made his way up the mountain path, where he found two people engaged in a chess match beneath a pavilion.
To the left sat a man in a white robe exuding an elegant and otherworldly aura characteristic of an Immortal, handsomely featured—Tianxuan True Man (Hidden Immortal), Level 72. Life Value: ????
On the right sat another figure, drenched in a black robe with patterns of stars and constellations in dark gold, his face imposing—Kaiyang Star Lord (Hidden Immortal), Level 69. Life Value: ????
The two seemed entirely absorbed by their chess game, completely oblivious to Xiao Jie's approach. Xiao Jie didn't dare to interrupt and stood by quietly observing.
