Chapter 489: Chapter 489: Behaving Toughly_1

“That’s right.” Xu Fan was not clear whether the newcomer was friend or foe, and thus his attitude was neither good nor bad, just indifferent.

“Young friend, you’re quite impressive.”

When Nan Bowan saw Xu Fan and the beautiful woman he was holding, he quickly realized Xu Fan had successfully rescued Xu Yixue and breathed a sigh of relief. However, his expression remained far from relaxed, instead turning rather solemn, “Protector Xu, Minister Qian has brought people and they’ll be here any moment. You should go meet them first, get as far away as you can, I’ll hold off these two old fools.”

His strength was originally comparable to that of the Qiankun Twin Swords, and he could have taken on either one of them in a 1v1 fight, plus he had broken through after a period of seclusion, so facing either one alone would not be a problem, and he could even confidently gain the upper hand.

But now, the Qiankun Twin Swords were here together, and their combined attack was extremely formidable. It’s not just they who could take him alone; they could handle three or four Nan Bowans simultaneously without breaking a sweat.

Knowing full well that he was no match for the Qiankun Twin Swords, he still wanted to buy time for Xu Fan to make a quick escape.

...

Such selfless sacrifice moved Xu Fan somewhat.

“Heh heh... Nan Bowan, have you gone senile?” Qian Sword let out a sinister laugh and mocked, “You alone thinking of covering the rear? As if my brother and I are pushovers. Utterly arrogant!”

“Nan Bowan, it seems you still don’t understand the situation at hand. You’re going to die anyway, and yet you wish to save others? How noble of you. It’s just a shame that this day next year will be the anniversary of your death,” Kun Sword also said chillingly.

“Is that so? Then let this old man see what you’ve got.”

With a cold snort, Nan Bowan looked around disdainfully, his aura surging tumultuously as he waved his hand, drawing in the Ice Element from the surrounding environment into the palm of his hand, causing a loud “crackling” noise.

In a flash, a sharp ice crystal longsword formed in his hand, spreading an intense coldness all around as the chill threatened to penetrate to the bone.

“The Frost Sword again? Can’t you come up with something new? It seems you’re still treading water,” Qian Sword taunted.

“Big talk for someone who might twist his tongue in the wind. Care to try it out?”

Nan Bowan’s face was grim as he waved his longsword, releasing a blast of frost Sword Qi that headed straight for the top of Qian Sword’s head.

The Sword Qi was like a rainbow, turning the air it passed through into ice and frost.

Qian Sword did not even bother to raise his eyelids, simply sitting upright. He lifted his hand slightly and exhaled a beam of crimson-purple radiance from his palm.

“Bang!”

Upon contact, the two forces erupted with a clanging boom, scattering a bright radiance all over the night sky as if it were daylight.

“Xu protector, how can you...”

Nan Bowan was infuriated by Xu Fan’s disregard for advice and began to shout, but his sentence was abruptly cut off, and he forgot how to close his gaping mouth.

Xu Fan, with a whoosh, flew out, leaving behind a trail of afterimages along the way.

The crackling sound of sonic booms spread out all around like ignited firecrackers, reaching everyone’s ears.

The strong wind generated sonic booms, which also possessed tremendous destructive power, kicking up dust and debris everywhere it passed.

On witnessing this, Qian Sword’s pupils suddenly contracted.

When facing Nan Bowan’s Frost Sword Qi, he was nonchalant, handling it with ease.

But Xu Fan’s terrifying speed and impressive momentum immediately drew his full attention. He circulated the True Qi within his body, preparing to strike.

He also glanced subtly at Kun Sword, their high level of tacit understanding allowing the latter to instantly comprehend Qian Sword’s intent.

Immediately, Qian Sword stretched out his withered right hand, raising it in front of his chest, where the reddish glow on his wristwatch circulated with restrained might, and he slapped outward.

By that time, Xu Fan was already close, unleashing a punch with a terrifying aura.

“Boom!”

With a loud bang, the place of energy collision trembled the void itself.

The ferocious shockwave spread rapidly around, and Xu Fan burst out from the energy’s radiance, coming to a stop with a more solemn expression on his face.

In this exchange, he more so aimed to test the opponent’s strength, and the result was Qian Sword was stronger than he had anticipated.

Originally, Xu Fan thought that after cultivating the Chaos Genesis Technique and acquiring the Chaos Heaven-Opening Body, even relying on pure physical strength, he would be able to split mountains and shatter rocks.

But that elder opposite him had caught his punch head-on and remained unharmed, which was quite astounding.

Upon reflection, he quickly understood what was going on.

The attack from the opponent just now seemed to mix two streams of True Qi, indiscernible unless one looked carefully.

Two streams of True Qi... Xu Fan raised his eyes to look at Kun Sword in another direction, a slight smile curving at his lips.

It turned out to be a combined attack technique, quite profound indeed, having transcended mere synchronized movements to reach a state where True Qi resonated and merged into one.
