“Tsk tsk tsk, such a pity!” Bei Jiang exclaimed when he saw a s.p.a.ce Mage save the boy that had fallen off the tower.

The boy had almost reached the ground. The Mages that dove from the tower had no chance of catching up to him. The boy was going to turn into a bright red carpet if there was no Mage on the ground nearby. Bei Jiang would then be able to enjoy the cries of agony of his parents. It was indeed an enjoyable night!

Bei Jiang shook his head helplessly and left.

However, a familiar black fly slowly approached him. He was the only person that could see it. The fly was invisible to the others.

Bei Jiang’s gaze sharpened. He immediately looked down from the height of a few hundred meters and placed his attention on the man that had used his s.p.a.ce Magic to save the kid.

Bei Jiang smiled again; it was as fake and terrifying as his previous one.

“Fancy finding the thing that I’ve searched for far and wide with sheer luck!” Bei Jiang murmured.

Bei Jiang jumped from the top of the Canton Tower and dove at the ground. He was like a black bat with its wings withdrawn, diving in the strong cold wind!

Screams were heard once again. The people did not expect another person to fall from the Canton Tower right after the boy. However, the person was obviously not falling helplessly. He was plunging right at the man that had saved the boy, like a glowing black sword!

——

“Kid, I bet you won’t dare to climb up the rails next time. If I didn’t happen to be pa.s.sing by, your fat meat would have been stuck to the ground in a mess by now!” Mo Fan placed the kid on the ground.

The kid was recovering from his fright, but he fainted right away after hearing the words.

Mo Fan had no intention to waste his time on the kid. He left the kid on a bench in the square nearby.

Mo Fan felt a cold murderous intent coming from above. He was shocked when he sensed the dangerous presence approaching him rapidly. He immediately cast Blink to back away from it!

A cold dagger slammed onto the ground and left a hole in the plaza. Its cold aura spread into the surroundings.

Even though Mo Fan had managed to dodge the attack, he could still feel his blood running cold.

Was the a.s.sa.s.sin really that insane? It had been less than a minute since he used his spell, but the guy had appeared right before him. How did he do it?

Mo Fan was troubled by the thought. His heart shuddered when he looked at the a.s.sa.s.sin in a black windbreaker. Mo Fan finally understood why Xiao Ping was so scared, as he was having the same feeling too!

“Bring me to the woman, and perhaps I’ll spare your life,” Bei Jiang stood in front of Mo Fan, radiating a demonic aura.

“So you’re the a.s.sa.s.sin?” Mo Fan asked.

“I am Bei Jiang,” Bei Jiang declared with a proud look in his hollow eyes.

“This is the territory of the Nanguo Magic a.s.sociation. Are you sure you want to start a fight here?” Mo Fan smirked when he saw a few Mages gathering around them.

“Do you think I’m worried about them? I don’t like to repeat myself. I’m only asking you to bring me to her to save me some time. The truth is, I can already find where she is,” Bei Jiang was very confident in his capabilities. He did not mind sharing it with Mo Fan.

“You will have to get over my dead body if you want to do anything to her!” Mo Fan had no intention to back away now that he had stumbled into the a.s.sa.s.sin. His aura s.h.i.+fted as he turned grim.

“There are always idiots like you who make the wrong choice when it’s a matter of life and death!” Bei Jiang sneered.

Bei Jiang made his move. He seemed to have completely disregarded the magnificent Canton Tower behind him. There were a lot of experts stationed at the Nanguo Magic a.s.sociation, yet he was treating them as mere decorations!

The man suddenly disappeared from under the colorful lights of the tower. Mo Fan could not even see where he was, as if he had completely vanished into thin air.

Mo Fan tried to locate the man with his Shadow Element, yet he discovered unusual energy ripples in eight different spots, preventing him from tracking the man down.

A black ray suddenly came down at Mo Fan like an icy sword. Mo Fan raised his head and saw a pair of black pupils with an intimidating glow, like those of a poisonous snake. The stare stopped him from moving as if he had been paralyzed.

The black icy sword moved closer, yet Mo Fan was unable to move. It felt similar to when he was bound by the stare of the Dreadful Curse Cerberus. He could not even use Blink!

Mo Fan had rarely fought against an expert of the Shadow Element. The man was clearly better than him in terms of the Shadow Element!

Mo Fan forcibly unleashed his Lightning as he was struggling to move around. Huge lightning arcs sprang up and clashed with the black sword, before lunging at the eyes that were hidden in the shadows.

The Lightning with its damaged amplified twelvefold was very effective. Bei Jiang did not expect Mo Fan’s Lightning to be so powerful.

The wild lightning arcs allowed Mo Fan to break free from his restraint. However, he was shocked to see that the ground below him had disappeared when he moved a little distance away. It had turned into a s.p.a.cious black swamp!

Black hands were reaching out from the swamp, grabbing at Mo Fan’s legs. They were trying to drag Mo Fan into the swamp!

“Second-tier Nyx Regime: the Swamp of Darkness!” Mo Fan immediately recognized the spell. However, it was not easy to break free from the sticky and restraining swamp. The a.s.sa.s.sin was good at restraining his target before dealing a killing blow!

As Mo Fan was held in place by the demonic hands, a figure slowly rose from the swamp with an eerie weapon in his hand.

“Rebelling Shadow Throat Slice!” Bei Jiang uttered like a cold-blooded killer.

The kid that Mo Fan saved had woken up. He witnessed a shocking sight as soon as he opened his eyes. The shadow of the big brother who had saved his life rose on its own and climbed onto his back with an eerie grin. It was extending its dagger toward the big brother’s neck without making any noise!

A shadow that could kill, and it was killing its own master!

The little boy had never seen anything so terrifying. When the dagger sliced Mo Fan’s throat, the kid rolled his eyes and fainted again.

Mo Fan’s own shadow was slicing his throat, as if it had suddenly come alive. It was spooky and impossible to defend against!

“Die!” Bei Jiang grinned coldly, ordering Mo Fan’s shadow to stab the dagger deeper.

Too many Mages had died to this move at Bei Jiang’s hands. No one would ever keep an eye on their own shadow, but the shadow under his control had almost a one hundred percent chance of killing its master!

A black aura flickered. The Mo Fan whose throat was sliced open suddenly turned into a black cloak and floated away.

The real Mo Fan reappeared in a different direction. His black eyes were staring at Bei Jiang. Strong lightning appeared, crackling around him!

Bei Jiang was startled. His face was filled with astonishment.

“Interesting,” Bei Jiang’s lips curled up.

It would be boring if he kept killing his target so easily. The young Mage had turned out to be a Shadow Mage too, and might be able to entertain him a little!

“Shadow Clone… that’s not an ability that a normal Shadow Mage would have,” Bei Jiang said.

Mo Fan had left a clone behind, so the Rebelling Shadow had only killed a clone. The showdown between their Shadow Elements triggered Bei Jiang’s bloodl.u.s.t. Killing a worthy opponent would bring him more joy!

“Lightning Whip!”

Mo Fan turned his lightning into a long thick whip. He lashed it in Bei Jiang’s direction.

They were still in the plaza. There were lots of ordinary people around, so Mo Fan did not dare use the Silent Deadly Rays and the Sky Lightning Claw, as they might harm innocent lives.

“You will never hit me!” Bei Jiang’s figure suddenly blurred.

He floated in the air like a black mist, splitting up into different shadows and disappearing into the black swamp without a trace!

The people of the Magic a.s.sociation finally showed up. A man with a thick mustache yelled, “Who’s fighting here!?”

“Evacuate the people and set up a perimeter!” another Maga said.

The area of the black swamp was huge. Many people were caught in it and unable to move. They could only cry for help as their bodies continued to sink into the swamp.

The people of the Magic a.s.sociation quickly lent a hand when they saw a few people sink completely into the swamp.

Unfortunately, the Mages that showed up were not too strong. The strongest among them was only an Advanced Mage. These members of the Magic a.s.sociation were mere decorations to Bei Jiang. He sank into the swamp and reappeared less than ten meters away from Mo Fan…

Mo Fan was concentrating. He was unsure which one was the real Bei Jiang. The man was able to move inside the swamp and stir up images to confuse his senses, waiting for the perfect chance to deliver a killing blow!
