Chapter 238: Chapter 204: The Two Swords Finally Merge_1

"The swords have finally come together." Peng Fulai looked at the figure of the two with an unsurprised look, "I knew it, Qianzhi couldn’t resist."

Zhang Yue was very worried: "Can it work?"

"It will definitely work! Look at them, they’re wearing the same color clothes and the same kind of shoes today."

Peng Fulai had full confidence in this: "We have practiced for a while, and I can now see that this so-called ’Zhengfan Yinyang Tianjidihe Array’ is not about hard practice but about talent and tacit understanding."

At this moment, within half a mile nearby, on the Liuli Tower of the Great Baoan Temple, Qiu Qianqiu’s face was pale, looking somewhat defeated: "Nonsense! This is simply a waste of time."

What he was referring to were sisters Jiang Hanyun and Xue Yunrou. Although the two women had suppressed the Winged Devil with a sword and a blade, their adversary was actually unharmed and even looked composed.

"It’s not a waste of time. Shen Zhimou and Yin Ruolan, as well as the couple Ma Chenggong, are already the most in sync pairs in our Liudao Division. If even they can’t make it, there’s no point in expecting others."

The blind old man sighed: "Prepare a backup plan. No matter what, I cannot allow this demon to shatter the mirror here."

However, Qiu Qianqiu looked displeased and reluctant: "But this way, not only does it not cure the root cause, but it will also reduce your lifespan by five years. Please reconsider, sir!"

"We only need to buy three months for the five heavenly-level experts to gather." The blind old man asked with a smile: "You asked me to think it over, Qiu, do you have any better plans?"

Qiu Qianqiu was choked and left without a word. Then, from the corner of his eye, he saw two figures climbing up the Lanyue House.

"Li Xuan?" He was first stunned, then smiled bitterly: "One after another, these two, they are simply overestimating themselves."

"Let them go. We will prepare and suppress this evil creature—"

Abruptly, the blind old man paused: "Qianqiu, besides Li Xuan, who is the other one? Have they practiced the ’Zhengfan Yinyang Tianjidihe Array’?"

"That’s Fumo Youjiao Luo Yan, who was trained in our Liudao Division’s youth camp, and now serves under Li Xuan. As far as I know, they haven’t practiced this battle array."

After hearing this, Qiu Qianqiu looked attentively as well: "These kids are acting boldly, sir, I hope you won’t take offense."

"Why would I? I just feel that there might be some hope for these two."

At this moment, a glimmer appeared in the blind old man’s pupil-less eyes: "Didn’t you notice? I only heard one set of footsteps, and during their sprint, the sound of the wind was as if coming from one person."

Qiu Qianqiu’s body shook slightly, he began to watch closely, then his eyes shone brightly: "That’s right."

The two figures in the distance landed and rose at the exact same moment, showing no difference at all. Their aura and movements were in perfect harmony.

He couldn’t help but marvel in surprise, could two men achieve this level of tacit understanding? It was indeed inconceivable.

At this moment, Li Xuan was asking Luo Yan: "Luo Yan, have you learned the ’Zhengfan Yinyang Tianjidihe Array’?"

"No, but I’ve seen it before." Luo Yan’s voice was casual: "I’m confident that it won’t be a problem to use it."

She actually wanted to say that even without using this battle array, and just improvising, there probably wouldn’t be a problem. She had more confidence in their cooperation than Li Xuan did.

Of course, using the ’Zhengfan Yinyang Tianjidihe Array’ was also an option. As a skilled martial cultivator, once you understand one technique, you can apply them all. Just by watching it once, they could use it freely.

"That’s great!" At this moment, Li Xuan had just climbed to the top of Lanyue House, and shouted: "Spellcasters!"

With no delays, the two sets of wind wings spread out almost simultaneously behind Li Xuan and Luo Yan, and their figures rose into the air.

"Xuan?"

At this time, Xue Yunrou suddenly sheathed her flying sword a hundred feet away, looking dumbfounded at the scene.

Jiang Hanyun also stopped and retreated a few dozen feet, looking displeased at the airborne Li Xuan and Luo Yan below: "You both have never practiced the combined attack array, what are you doing up there?"

And around the Lanyue House, all the observers were discussing.

"Who’s that?"

"It seems to be the second son of Earl Chengyi, Li Xuan, who has recently reformed and has become a 6th-rank Six Paths Bureau Colonel. "

"He’s so handsome!" This was from a beautiful woman in the brothel: "I didn’t know this young Xuan could be so heroic and dignified. I used to think he was just a wastrel."

"Who’s the other one? His face, his features... I reckon even the ancient beauties Pan An and Wei Jie would look less attractive compared to him. Why haven’t I heard of him before?"

"That’s someone from Zhuque Hall, wearing Liudao Fumo Armor. It seems he is even less reliable than the couple surnamed Ma who went in before."

"Have they all given up? The Liudao Division is bound to mess up this time. Poor Nanjing City, went through a disaster on Zhongyuan Festival and now it has to endure another calamity."

Jiang Yunqi, who was with Yue Huaiyuan at this moment, raised an eyebrow, almost snapping off his beard: "Huaiyuan, did you notice?"

"Of course, their lifting and landing speeds are completely the same." Yue Huaiyuan’s face was serious: "This kind of tacit understanding, this synchronization rate, even my wife and I are far less comprehensive."

Jiang Yunqi was interested in something different. He wanted to know, how could Li Xuan establish such a profound connection with a man, a man as beautiful as a flower?

Meanwhile in another location, within a tall building at the Confucius Temple, the second prince Yu Jianji, who had rushed to the scene, raised an eyebrow in surprise: "It’s actually Li Er?" I thought his cultivation wasn’t high. Master Quan also mentioned before that he didn’t seem to have a suitable partner. Wait, the other person is actually a man?"

Quan Dingtian, who stood behind him, stroked his beard: "To my knowledge, Li Xuan is quite lucky, having several ladies fond of him at a young age. However, in terms of a significant partner, he doesn’t seem to have settled on anyone. I suppose the Liudao Division has given up on a partnered attack strategy. Huh?"

To his surprise, he looked up to see two figures soaring into the sky from Lanyue House, essentially moving as one. Their combined form left him astounded: "These two are truly extraordinary!"

"Indeed, they are exceptional." At this moment, Master Zhenru’s eyes narrowed. He then explained to the puzzled Prince Yu Jianji and Princess Changle standing behind him: "If you look carefully, their level of synchrony far surpasses that of Mr and Mrs. Yue."

While everyone was discussing enthusiastically, Li Xuan and Luo Yan had already ascended into the air, reaching the Winged Devil.

Li Xuan had already tried out the pair of wind wings on his back mid-flight - they were extremely handy, moving according to his will. This shouldn’t pose a problem in battle.

The male of the Winged Devil sneered, "Just two of you from the second gate, merely men, have come to entertain us with a joke? Even if I stay put and let you attack, what can you do?"

"Idiot!"

Li Xuan coldly retorted, his figure flickering like a bolt of lightning, closing the gap between them to less than 15 meters.

He noticed that the Winged Devil, both male and female, though making a vigilant gesture, didn’t take them seriously in the slightest. Their contempt was obvious.

"Get lost!" The female sneered, believing that their cultivation levels were low, so she went on the offensive instead of defending. The bone blade in her right hand emitted a burst of cold light that slashed towards the open sky.

But across from her, Luo Yan’s body floated like a wisp of smoke, her eight-sided Han sword honing in on the female devil like a venomous snake.

Meanwhile, Li Xuan’s figure flickered again - using the elusive Thunder Style movement, he appeared on the right side of the male devil and jabbed at his waist with his blade.

The Winged Devil slightly startled and said: "The Real Intent of Thunder? Despite your young age and weak cultivation, your swordsmanship is quite remarkable."

Trusting in their ’Immortal Twin Souls’, he made no attempts to defend. Instead, he slashed with his bone blade directly towards Li Xuan’s head.

But in the next moment, his color shifted. An extreme sense of danger emerged from his heart. The reason being that on the other side, the other Slayer holding the ’eight-sided Han sword’ had perfectly synchronized her attack with Li Xuan, with the tip of her sword aimed at the female devil’s right waist.

"This can’t be, this can’t be, how is this possible?"

Despite the Winged Devil’s attempt to dodge, there was simply no room for evasion or counterattack. Li Xuan’s blade was thrust in, and with a swift twist upward into the male devil’s upper abdomen, he burst forward to dodge the attacking bone blade.

Meanwhile at his side, Luo Yan surprisingly mirrored his exact movements without missing a beat, causing two horrifying sprays of blood to erupt in mid-air.

"They did it!" cried Qiu Qianqiu, standing on the top of the Liuli Tower in Baoen Temple. He was aghast, his expression filled with astonishment and joy, "They’ve achieved perfect synchronization! The spirit of the Winged Devil is hurt, and it’s quite serious."

"This strike was highly strategic and caught the enemy off guard! The spirit of the Winged Devil is indeed grievously injured."

The blind old man exhaled a long breath, as if relieved. Given the chance, anyone would choose to live a longer life, even him was no exception.

However, his mind was not entirely at ease: "As for the outcome of the battle, we have to wait and see."

Near Lanyue House, Xue Yunrou was both in shock and confused as she muttered in disbelief: "Li Xuan and Luo Yan together? This can’t be, this can’t be, how could this be? How?"

At this moment, the faces of everyone watching the scene within a ten-mile radius showed total astonishment.

At first, everyone thought the wounds on the Winged Devil would heal instantly like before.

But when both bodies of the Winged Devil cried out in pain, when the wounds inflicted by Li Xuan kept bleeding without any sign of healing, the surrounding battlefield fell entirely silent. Then suddenly, it erupted into a deafening roar.

Right at that moment, Li Xuan reappeared behind the Winged Devil in the form of a thunderbolt - just as the Winged Devil tried to turn around to attack them. With one swing of his long knife, he severed half of the Winged Devil’s right arm.

"Perfect!"

As Li Xuan’s spirit stirred, the female devil’s half-severed arm could be seen spurting blood as it flew through the air.

This sight slightly comforted him, knowing that there was already more than a 50% chance that they would win this battle. But this relief was but a fleeting moment. Almost instantly, he felt a sense of apprehension as his face turned pale.

He knew that the price might be severe — because he could faintly hear the buzzing from below.

"What a delightful pair of swordsmen!"

"Did you see that? The movements of those two gays were exactly the same."

"Well done!" A burly figure in the crowd cheered loudly: "The two of you have made us proud! What’s so great about a hero and his lover? Same-sex love is true love!"

"So that’s why," a dazed courtesan murmured. "The reason why the young master no longer frequents the Qinhuai River is because of them, isn’t it? Their synchronization and understanding of each other are obviously due to their deep love for one another. But indeed, his partner is quite the charmer. What a handsome face-"

Inside, Li Xuan was cursing, damn it, who’s gay? Your whole family’s gay.
