Chapter 74: Light and Darkness (2)

"And what about Zero and Shi Jia?" Dusk asked with a raised eyebrow.

"We will pick them along the way… as long as we can get to them we can warp out of here… It's checkmate for these bastards!" Dawn laughed weakly.

"Well, well… I'm guessing the government refused to pull us out as long as we don't secure our targets… So without them, we are stuck here… how ruthless!" Dusk didn't seem pleased by the news.

"Don't take it to heart dear… we can always leave this place on our own, it's not like we are been forced to remain here" Dawn smiled at her.

"And become wanted fugitives because we failed to protect very important characters of the nation? We practically have no choice!" Dusk complained "I have lost my patience! I'll be using that technique now, just give me a few seconds to pin this old man down!" Dusk seemed even more annoyed when looking at Master chou who kept evading the shadow spikes.

Bam!

Clasping her hands together, the twelve black circles multiplied once again, making it twenty-four black circles bombarding him with shadow spikes. At this point, Master chou's facial expression had changed a bit, showing some hints of annoyance as he darted around the room, skillfully each spike sent at him. His mobility and foresight were something that even left Dusk speechless and cursing in her mind.

How the fuck can he dodge all of this in such a small space!

Woosh!

Woosh!

Woosh!

A black circle suddenly appeared above master chou but as soon as the shadow spike was released, Master chou had already darted to the left, spinning uncontrollably!

"I expected that!" Dusk growled as more shadow circles appeared at Master chou's sides and even beneath his feet!

Bang!

Leaving his feet imprints on the ground, Dusk could only watch the man twist his body in ways no normal human should while propelling himself towards a short space between two shadow circles even before the shadow spikes could be released!

"You!" Dusk almost spat out blood due to anger as she found it hard to explain what just happened.

Even though master chou was fast, his evasive ability was actually boosted by his small figure making him hard to hit. For someone who has always assumed bigger is better, Dusk couldn't help but flush in embarrassment.

Bang!

"You can't possibly think you can kill me with this pitiful attempt… I have lived for too long to die such boring deaths…. Either way, it's nice, keep fighting, lets see who will outlast the other! It's your spirit energy versus my stamina! And last time I checked my stamina as a martial arts master far surpasses your spirit energy! It's only a matter of time!" Master Chou laughed lightly, sending shivers down the spine of both Dusk and Dawn.

"Shadow Manipulation: Shadow control!" Dusk ignored his words and quickly attacked while she still had the chance.

Xiu!

With a strange sound, Master Chou's shadow darkened more than usual, but since the man's sensory skill was exceptional, he could instantly tell some changes had taken place in his shadow especially since it wasn't mimicking his movements as usual.

"It's over! Shadow Manipulation: Shadow lock!" Dusk cried out.

Instantly, Master chou's shadow bust into numerous tendril shaped shadows, lashing onto the man like ropes. On his body were countless shadows tightening their grip on him so hard that he was pinned to the wall! This was an unexpected development and the man had almost no way of countering it.

Puti!

Dusk fell on her knees spitting out a mouthful of blood!
