"At this point, you have completed all the knowledge you needed to learn." Shadow B sheathed the Short Blade in his hand. "I hereby declare that you are ready to graduate."

The blood flowing within Lin Fan's body, opposite Shadow B, seemed to converge into a multi-tailed, multi-headed serpent. He had been cultivating and learning alongside Shadow B for the past ten days, and had indeed acquired a considerable amount of knowledge. Hearing Shadow B's words, Lin Fan shook his head and said, "Tell me, where is that person? Didn't he want to see me?"

"A person?" Shadow B tilted his head and smiled, "You used the wrong title, but He is already calling you."

"Huh?" Before Lin Fan could react, he felt the spacetime power within his body seem to sense something in the distant future. Following this sensation, Lin Fan's blood flowed out, enveloping his black clothes, and he truly disappeared into this time period.

"Linxi Park?" Lin Fan looked around at the surroundings. There were very few people around, and Linxi Park was not far away. There were a few people walking at the main entrance. Apart from the fact that there were fewer people, everything seemed to be normal.

Lin Fan, draped in an invisibility cloak and wearing a mask, naturally did not alert anyone else. He remembered Shadow B's words: the space beneath Linxi Park, a space with distorted time and space, was originally an experimental site of an Evil God, but after some events, it became the headquarters of the Ring of Time and Space.

If nothing unexpected happens, today is the day those things will occur, so he doesn't intend to act rashly but to observe carefully first. Rash behavior usually only leads to bad consequences, which needs to be avoided.

Sure enough, not long after, Lin Fan sensed several life forms appearing in front of the park. However, they were not visible in normal vision. These people were extremely clever in their concealment. If it weren't for Lin Fan's partially fused Crimson Snake, the serpent of life symbolizing blood and fire, he would have had difficulty detecting their life forms.

These life forms, invisible, rushed through the gate of Linxi Park and headed straight in one direction. Then Lin Fan heard a soft sound from afar, and some people rushed out and pinned down the invisible life form. Then, as more invisible life forms rushed through the Linxi Park, some people that Lin Fan had not even noticed before appeared out of nowhere and captured these invisible people.

"The invisible individuals were not detected before they rushed through the park gate, but once they passed through, they were spotted and captured. Therefore, there are traps at the gate to expose the invisible individuals."

"Lu Li? He became a secret agent?" Lin Fan narrowed his eyes and suddenly saw a familiar face among the group of people. It was his high school classmate, whose dashing act of tearing up the exam paper was still fresh in his memory.

As if sensing Lin Fan's gaze, Lu Li around and looked in his direction, which startled Lin Fan.

What shocked Lin Fan even more was the moment the blue flame ignited in Lu Li's hand, and the dispersing power of time. This blue flame was exactly the same as the one used by the headquarters of the Ring of Time and Space, which made Lin Fan even more astonished.

"Is Lu Li the founder of the Ring of Time and Space?" Lin Fan had this thought when he heard Lu Li say to the others in the distance, "No one here is You Qiying. They probably went to Lakeside Tower from another direction. You guys take care of these people who are being controlled. I'll go and pursue them first. The gate also needs to be checked urgently to prevent anyone else from hiding outside."

After giving his instructions, Lu Li smiled, adjusted his black-rimmed glasses, glanced at Lin Fan's location again, and with blue flames burning on his hand, he ran towards the Lakeside Tower at lightning speed.

"He's found me!" Lin Fan's heart skipped a beat. "The person Shadow B mentioned wanting to see me, is that Lu Li?"

"Follow them." Lin Fan made his decision. The Shadow Kingdom, to which Shadow B belonged, was extremely close to the Ring of Time and Space. It was even possible that the Ring of Time and Space was an organization under the Shadow Kingdom. Therefore, Lu Li, who had possibly established the Ring of Time and Space, should also have a close relationship with the Shadow Kingdom.

The three candles from the Shadow Lord changed him; he wondered what the Shadow Lord wanted him to do.

Shall we light the candles?

He also wanted to know what the Shadow Lord wanted to do after descending upon this world.

If the person who summoned me here is Lu Li, then he must know more and be able to dispel my confusion. At that time, I might be able to make a choice: whether to abandon my human identity and Avatar into Crimson Snake, or to stand on the side of humanity and face everything.

Lin Fan took a deep breath and activated the abilities he had learned over the past few days. The power of time flowed, and in that instant, Lin Fan disappeared from the world. The planet revolved, and Lin Fan reappeared inside the park.

This is what we call time teleportation. It allows you to fix your position in time and let celestial bodies and planets rotate to carry you. The speed is unparalleled, but the position is difficult to control.

"Lakeside Tower!" Lin Fan shook his somewhat distorted sense of time and hurriedly ran towards the Lakeside Tower. When he arrived, he saw Lu Li standing in front of a person with a black hood, whose face could not be seen.

Lin Fan sensed that time was starting to act strangely. Lu Li must also be a time-space clone, having come from the past. Soon after, a neatly dressed person also approached, a black hooded figure slowly saying, "You've arrived!"

"I've arrived! Please, Master, help me change my identity." The neatly dressed person walked through the Lu Li and came to the man in the black hood, pleadingly.

"Is this how you greet me, Nyar?" Lu Li grinned strangely, walked to the other side, and said slowly.

"You can call me Black Face!" The black-hooded man's face was obscured. It seemed he was speaking to You Qiying, Lu Li, or Lin Fan. Lin Fan could even sense a pair of extremely mocking eyes looking at him from under the hood.

"What's going on? Nyar? Black Face?" Lin Fan was at a loss, and even felt a surge of panic rising within him, making him feel like he was going crazy.

The neatly dressed man couldn't see Lu Li or himself. He was there to ask the man called Black Face to change his identity so he could live a peaceful life. It seemed to be the same person named You Qiying that Lu Li had tried to capture at the gate.

"I need you to go to the bottom of the lake, pass through the stone gate there, and place this behind the gate." The Black Face stretched out his palm, on which was an eye-like object. "If you help me do what I want, I will naturally help you do what you want!"

What terrified Lin Fan even more was that an eye appeared in front of him as well.
