Catching an opportunity, he punched Ah Fu back and asked the question he most wanted to know, "Do you have to give every move a name?"
Ah Fu did not answer directly, but gave Jin Bing an answer with a new move.
"Behold, my Supernova Burst!"
"Enough, Tara! Do you just want to watch from the sidelines forever!?"
Jin Bing was furious, not just because of Ah Fu's incessant trash talk.
Tara had been watching the entire time, showing no intention of helping. Ah Fu hadn't used a single move on him either.
Jin Bing found it strange. Had he blocked Tara's profits, or killed his parents? With such a big head, why couldn't he see, and why was he still chasing him?
Ah Fu really wanted to help Bai Qi take down this big head, but he couldn't.
The attacks of the异类王蛇 (Yìlèi Wángshé - Xenomorphic King Snake) were physical attacks. Ah Fu didn't know magic and didn't have garlic, so he couldn't do anything to Tara. It was better to take down this bald fat man first.
Hearing Jin Bing's enraged roar, Tara knew he couldn't keep slacking off.
Although he didn't particularly like the bald fat man, he had to admit that the world was no longer the world he knew. This man called Jin Bing had some power in this world and could provide him with great help to a certain extent.
He hadn't acted at first because Jin Bing's words had greatly displeased him. However, seeing the disheveled Jin Bing now, Tara felt much better. He couldn't let this guy truly die, so he decided to call it quits and prepared to make his move.
Tara did not send out his Shadow Ninjas.
It was evident that this humanoid creature was skilled, and a swarm of ninjas would have no effect on him.
So, Tara went into battle himself, sending a telekinetic wave that slammed Ah Fu against the wall.
Then, telekinetic waves like a tide battered Ah Fu, rendering him immobile. The 异类王蛇 (Yìlèi Wángshé - Xenomorphic King Snake) also showed signs of disintegration under the immense impact.
Just then, luckily, Tara hadn't noticed the small mirror Jin Bing had placed on the table when he attacked. Although the small mirror fell to the ground after Jin Bing threw the table, it was fortunate that it wasn't broken.
As Ah Fu was about to succumb, a ripple appeared on the mirror's surface. A large purple snake then shot out and struck Tara across the face with its tail.
Although it didn't cause any damage, it successfully interrupted Tara's spellcasting. Then, its tail coiled around Ah Fu on the ground and retreated back into the mirror world.
Looking at the mess in the office – the carpets, crystal chandelier, vases, and all sorts of precious antiques smashed to pieces, only for the enemy to escape in the end.
Seeing all this, Jin Bing's blood pressure soared.
Veins bulged on his forehead, and he pointed at Tara, wanting to speak but unable to utter a word for a long time.
"Forget it," Jin Bing said as he sat back in his chair. "I'll have someone clean this up. You can go, and at least don't let me see you for today." Su Dan Novel Network
Tara knew Jin Bing was in a bad mood and didn't intend to provoke him further. Before leaving, he gave a thoughtful reminder, "The opponent attacked from the mirror world. If I were you, I would thoroughly clear out everything reflective in the office. I don't want to see you as a corpse the next time we meet."
"You don't need to remind me of that."
The scene shifted. Bai Qi had arrived at a secret safe house and had returned to his normal human size.
From the confrontation at the exhibition, Bai Qi realized that Tara was not unprepared. At least, judging by the types of ninjas summoned, the latter had obtained the masks of Ika, Resu, and Manny.
When ordinary people put on the ninja masks, their inner darkness could grant them the power to control the Shadowkhan, while gradually taking control of their bodies, devouring their souls, and ultimately possessing them.
Ultimately, the bodies of ordinary humans were too frail. Even with successful possession, they were not suitable vessels for the Shadow Generals. Of course, if the wearer were a superhero like Superman or Batman, that would be a different story.
However, as long as Tara had a shred of intelligence, he wouldn't provoke these superheroes.
The best way to fully unleash the Shadow Generals was to collect all nine masks and gather them together.
But this made Bai Qi an insurmountable obstacle to Tara's plan of gathering his old subordinates.
Nijia, Bart, Samo, and five other masks were in Bai Qi's possession, and Bai Qi had no intention of handing them over for no reason.
Therefore, besides recovering his strength, Tara's top priority was to find a way to snatch the masks from Bai Qi.
Bai Qi was also trying to regain control of the Shadowkhan.
"Fine, you've left me no choice."
Sensing again and confirming that he could no longer summon the Shadow Ninjas, Bai Qi, in his anger, finally decided to go on a killing spree.
"You'll be the first."
The first mask Bai Qi took out was General Gianna.
As the basic ninjas of the Shadowkhan, the ninja legions controlled by General Gianna appeared to be the weakest in combat power, but in reality, they were the most useful. He would start with this one.
After placing the mask, Bai Qi began to activate the power of the Sheep Talisman and then punched the mask.
Bai Qi's fist hit the Gianna mask solidly, but the mask did not break. Instead, a shadow was blasted out of it.
The flying shadow landed on the ground like a blob of paste, then began to boil like a bubbling pot, rising upwards and gradually forming a human shape.
When the shadow was fully formed, Bai Qi could see the appearance of the entity.
In terms of appearance, it wore samurai armor made of black energy, and its face was like the mask, only more animated.
"Am I... resurrected!?"
Looking at the change in his body, Gianna was somewhat bewildered. After all, he had been sealed in the mask for so many years, and then his power had been repeatedly stolen by the Dark Lord. Suddenly appearing now was somewhat unbelievable.
"No, not yet."
A familiar voice reached Gianna's ears, causing him to tremble.
Looking in the direction of the voice, he knew for sure it was the demon who had been draining his power every day, almost to the point of exhaustion.
Gianna's current situation could indeed not be described as being freed from his seal. Or rather, only his soul was freed. Bai Qi, through the magic of the Sheep Talisman, had separated him from the mask into an independent entity.
"You... what do you want!?"
Bai Qi did not reply but observed Gianna. Both his demeanor and tone of voice did not seem like a general of the Shadowkhan at all.
Never mind, the important matters came first.
Thinking this, Bai Qi took out a blank dial.
That's right, Bai Qi intended to seal Gianna's power into the dial. This way, he could be separated from the entire Shadowkhan and summon a single ninja legion using Gianna's power alone.
Seeing that Bai Qi was unaffected by his pleas for sympathy, General Gianna's expression immediately changed. From a pitiable appearance one moment, he became ferocious and menacing the next.
