Tsk tsk tsk! Spectre uttered a strange noise, sounding like an angry rat. Mu Bai had no clue what language it was.

Spectre could not see Mu Bai, as the cage of ice spears was completely sealed. There was not a single gap between the icicles.

The assassin wanted to break free from the cage, but he soon realized if he tried to break the cage by force, the spears would stab him immediately, leaving him with no escape.

His eyes spun quickly. He was not the kind of person who liked using brute force. He enjoyed killing his target and overcoming situations with unusual methods.

I no longer have anyone I worry about in this world. On the other hand, I dont think theres anyone who holds a strong grudge against me, either. Mu Bai suddenly waved his hand to withdraw the ice spears.

The cage of ice spears began to crack into pieces. The gaps between the spears widened.

You may leave, tell her that our relationship ends here. My friends brought me back from death. If she keeps hassling me, I will take her with me, even if I die! Mu Bai declared.

Spectre knew he was no match for Mu Bai once his best trick was exposed. He fled without any hesitation when Mu Bai decided to let him go.

He would run away if he failed an attempt. It was his way of killing. He did not stand a chance against most Super Mages in a proper fight. Besides, this Mu Bai, who appeared to be weak on the surface, was completely different from back in Xiamen. He could sense an overwhelming Aura from him. Could it be that his soul had grown stronger when he was in the Dark Plane?

The guy was a lot stronger than when he was before!

Who you are talking to. Im just a chess piece. Beating me doesnt mean you are strong enough to take her on! I wont leave. I would fail my mission if I dont kill you, and failing a mission means death too! Show me your true strength, I want to see how strong youve become after I killed you the first time! Spectre surprisingly stayed around.

As you wish! Mu Bai replied.

Mu Bai was not relieved when he came back to life. He was actually disappointed.

He did not have many people he cared about in this world, nor was there anyone who wanted him dead so much.

Mu Bai was not stupid. He was just unwilling to believe. He still had a little hope that the only close one he had left was innocent.

Unfortunately, she was not, and he had paid a huge price for it!

Mu Bai might be disappointed, but he was not going to give up on himself. Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan went through so much just to save him. How could he let them down?

Spectre claimed he was only a chess piece. Mu Bai knew who the real culprit was.

However, he was still clueless about her true identity, nor did he know what she was going to do next.

That being said, if she tried to kill him again, she would end up exposing herself. As long as he was still alive, she would eventually show her true identity!

If she was naive enough to think he was still the same, she was going to fail miserably!

Spectre draped a ragged coat over his shoulders. It even had a foul smell to it.

He had a serious hunchback. His head was small compared to his body, which made him look like a rat in the sewers. His eyes were glittering like a venomous rat now.

He stopped hiding, and the blades in his hands took on a poisonous glow. He hurled them at Mu Bai. The blades spun rapidly and swept past Mu Bais neck, only inches away. They hit the ground and stuck in the mud after Mu Bai dodged them.

Mu Bai looked up and noticed Spectre had disappeared. He turned around and saw Spectre at the spot where the blades had landed, picking up the blades.

Spectre lunged forward and swung the blades like a pair of scissors at Mu Bais belly. If the hit landed, his intestines would definitely fall out of his body.

Mu Bai reacted swiftly. Frost particles had already gathered on his hands, and he slammed them on the ground. An ice pillar emerged from the ground and stabbed at Spectres chest.

If Spectre insisted on slicing his belly, he would pierce Spectres heart. Lets see who will survive in the end!

Spectre decided to back away in the end. It was not like he did not have the guts to take the risk, but he was unsure whether Mu Bai would end up being an ice statue again. He must have some contingency plan in mind if he had chosen such a reckless approach!

Mu Bai grinned when he saw Spectre backing away. He flung his sleeves and released a cloud of venomous golden insects at Spectre.

Spectre quickly tossed the blades in the opposite direction. The blades quivered on a tall tree.

Spectre dissolved into the ground like a pool of water before reappearing at the tree.

Using objects to relocate himself? Mu Bai finally saw how Spectre was moving around. He recalled how Spectre had used the same move to inflict serious injuries on him back in Xiamen.

It turned out that Spectre could move to where the blades were, yet Mu Bai could not tell which Element it was, especially since there were so many forbidden spells that had not been disclosed to the public.

When fighting against someone like Spectre, it was important to find out their capabilities first. He would only be killed if he was constantly in the dark.

Bite of the Python! Mu Bai raised his hands. The cloud of venomous insects gathered and turned into a golden python, which promptly chased after Spectre.

Spectre tossed one blade to the left and the other to the right. He was obviously giving himself two options to relocate himself to.

The python under Mu Bais control split into two and chased after the blades that were still spinning in the air.

However, Spectre did not relocate himself to either of the blades. He charged at Mu Bai after the blades lured the pythons away!

His body was like polluted water in the sewers. It had a suffocating, foul odor. He was planning to grapple Mu Bai as he did not have his weapons with him. Mu Bai took a step back as the leaves of the trees nearby flew to him.

The leaves formed a sturdy shield around Mu Bai under the influence of his Plant Element. They quickly assembled into a huge wall in front of him to protect him from the oncoming sewage!
