Battle's Conclusion

"Haa… Haa…!"

Hu Long crashed through the underbrush, panting heavily as he frantically scanned his surroundings. His pursuer would easily be able to track him with the traces he was leaving, but he couldn't afford to think about that, right now; he was so close to finding it!

Suddenly, however, a dirt wall filled with spikes shot up in front of him, forcing him to dodge to the side. Of course, the traps would increase in number around his objective.

He quickly regained his bearings and continued towards his objective, only for a hail of black beads to shoot in from his left followed by a barrage of black energy bolts, indicating that his pursuer was in range but still a ways away. Most of the projectiles fell wide, and those that were able to reach him were swatted away by his qi-infused palm.

There were still a few seconds before she caught up to him, if he could just find that damn flag…!
