…
Shin Jiao shifted his body to the side to dodge the incoming dagger. He dare not face it head-on as he could feel a sinister and mysterious enchantment on it.
It would seem that the long dagger was crafted by an expert and was imbued with some power that would affect one's mind and soul.
His body moved and the blade of the dagger passes to his side by a hair's breadth. It was one of Shin Jiao's dodging ability which was honed to perfection over the years.
Combined with his shadow steps, he is able to move his body as if his position suddenly shifted without someone noticing him moving an inch.
When the man saw that his attack missed, he frowns and quickly activated his skill. Meanwhile, Shin Jiao has already extended his hand to catch his attacker.
With his hand stretch forward, Shin Jiao suddenly grabs the neck of his opponent which is already disappearing. The man is looking at Shin Jiao with a sneer on his face as if he is confident that he would not be caught.
Shin Jiao discovers that he only caught air while his opponent is already gone.
"What a slippery bastard…" Shin Jiao muttered as he scanned his surroundings.
He could see that the boy is holding himself against four people who seem to be having a hard time defending themselves against their powerful, fast, and small opponent. The woman on the other hand was able to move gracefully while fighting against another group and she has already taken down two of her enemies.
'Hihi… Your friends are very strong, but they would not be able to protect you…' an eerie voice echoed in the air as the man suddenly appear out of nowhere and lounges an attack on Shin Jiao's back.
Shin Jiao reacted by dodging the stab to the side while sending a roundhouse kick to the belly of the assassin which he could now see.
The man looks thin, and the cloth covering his mouth is evidence that he is trying to hide his face.
'You have dodged my strike twice now… This is impossible… I need to strike you to resolve my humiliation. If not then my good name as the One Strike Demon will be tainted.' The eerie voice said which seem to come from everywhere.
Shin Jiao did not bother with the guy as he continuously scanned his surroundings. He knew that he could find this guy if he continuously spread his psychokinesis.
"Hmm… What if I use my Domain along with my absolute sense and spiritual sense?" Shin Jiao thought.
The reason why he seldom uses his absolute sense or spiritual sense is because of their range. Something seems to be preventing them from spreading.
As soon as he did what he thought, Shin Jiao immediately discover the existence of the invisible man. He is actually just standing behind him waiting for him to be distracted. And upon seeing that guy, he saw that person suddenly moved and stabbed him from behind once again.
This time, Shin Jiao did not dodge the long dagger, but instead, he waves his hand and a small handgun appears. Then he shifted his body and parried the knife using the handgun.
Following the sharp blade, the handgun's muzzle slowly pointed towards the chest of that guy. Then before he could use this ability, Shin Jiao pulled the trigger.
Bang!
The loud explosion seems to have rattled the mind and concentration of the man as his disappearing ability halted for a second.
Everyone who was fighting suddenly stopped and turns their attention towards Shin Jiao and the guy.
They were all surprised and stunned at the loud explosion that suddenly appears. They are in an inconspicuous area, but that doesn't mean that there are no people in this place.
As soon as that loud sound reverberated many have already shifted their gaze towards that inconspicuous place.
The group of dark clothes men has a look of disbelief and shock on their faces. They could not believe what they are seeing as they knew of the prowess of their boss. However, right now, they could see a large hole on his chest with his blood and guts all over the place.
Due to the short distance, the handgun was able to blast the assassin's chest open with ease.
Then before that man could disappear, Shin Jiao suddenly takes out a palm-size jade plate in his hand and without hesitation stabbed it in the man's hand.
"Let's see you escape this…" Shin Jiao said with an evil grin on his face.
Then he grabbed the falling dagger and quickly stored it in his space. When the soul connection of the long dagger and the man was severed, the man's eyes went wide in disbelief and indignation. He could not believe that he would lose his precious artifact in this fight.
Plus the connection with his soul to that artifact is something very precious to him. If this guy could discover the strand of his soul in the dagger, then he might be in trouble.
"Don't worry too, much… From now on, you cannot escape me." Shin Jiao said with a grin.
The man died with helplessness in his eyes.
Shin Jiao hid the jade plate in his pocket and carefully scanned his surroundings. Right now, the two are still fighting a hard battle against those assassins and Shin Jiao decided to help them.
Then a couple of loud bangs reverberated in the air before the rest of the assassins fell to the ground and died.
"Let's leave this place." Shin Jiao said as he led the two to a small inn.
Shin Jiao has discovered that not only is the boy proficient in using the Dark Qi or energy, but also his sister. They were able to wield the dark energy as if it is second nature to them.
"Okay… now that we are safe, I wanted to ask you two about something." Shin Jiao said with a serious expression.
"Who are you two and why are you able to wield dark energy?"
Shin Jiao's direct question turned the brother and sister dumbfounded. They did not expect that the unassuming young man could detect their secret.
But since the cat is already out of the bag, the woman wrapped in a bandage looks at Shin Jiao straight in his eyes and then lowered her head in embarrassment.
"Young… young master. We know that you are kind and are willing to help us. But since we could not tell you our secret, I hope that you could understand us." she said without meeting Shin Jiao's gaze.
Shin Jiao looks at the two and just heaves a deep sigh. He could not pry this secret open from them, so he decided to just let it be. Although they wield the dark energy, he could not feel any sinister aura within them unlike those that have been possessed by the Shadow Beings or the demons.
"Okay, I understand. You should stay in here and wait till morning to go out. I should return to my group now." Shin Jiao said as he fished out a bag with ten energy cores inside.
"This would suffice to help the two of you for a week…" Shin Jiao said as he left the pouch on the table.
"Wait… Master… Where… where are you going?" the woman asked with a hint of hesitation in her tone.
"I need to go back to our village…" Shin Jiao said with a smile.
"Big brother… can we go with you?" the little boy asked with glowing eyes.
Seeing the cure expression on the little boy, Shin Jiao could not imagine his bulky transformation when he was fighting against those strong assassins.
"Hmm… Well, you can… But I need to protect the village, if you are unwilling to share your secret with me, then I won't let any unknown person enter the village. I hope you could understand that."
Hearing his words, the two showed a hint of hesitation in their eyes. They are now weighing their options as they have not met with anyone as kind as Shin Jiao in this city before. Hence they immediately knew that if they follow Shin Jiao they could be safer.
Plus he was able to easily take care of those black clothes people, which speaks of his ability and the power of his artifact.
As they deliberated, in the room, the two began a hush discussion which made Shin Jiao feel like laughing. He was really interested in their ability, so he wanted to test them out.
So while waiting, Shin Jiao closes his eyes and checks his body. Ever since Maga told him about his lifespan shortening, he has checked his body many times over, but he still could not find it. He even could not feel that his lifespan was shortened. And this has bothered him for a while.
Every now and then, he would scan his body for that trace, and as usual, he once again failed to discover it.
…
Meanwhile, outside of the inn, a group of people are already gathering.
"Master, those people are staying in this place."
"I want to capture them alive! I will torture them myself." a beautiful young woman shouted with her expression contorted in anger.
