In this paper, we study the non-magnetic insulator state near Mott transition of 2D pi-flux Hubbard model on square lattice and find that such non-magnetic insulator state is quantum spin liquid state with nodal fermionic excitations - nodal spin liquid (NSL). When there exists small easy-plane anisotropic energy, the ground state becomes Z2 topological spin liquid (TSL) with full gapped excitations. The U(1)times U(1) mutual--Chern-Simons (MCS) theory is obtained to describe the low energy physics of NSL and TSL.
