Chapter 145 - 141: Sought Out
Under the plum blossom tree, the two practiced their sword techniques, with no Sword Aura emitted—only the presence of Sword Intent.
Li Fan had comprehended the Wind and Thunder Sword Intent. Each strike of his sword moved with exceptional speed. Lu Yuan, on the other hand, wielded the Cold Ice Sword Intent, her sword sweeping forth with a biting chill that froze the very air.
Lu Yuan’s swordsmanship employed the Surging Tide Sword Technique. When her Sword Aura surged, each strike grew stronger than the last. As her blade traced past Li Fan’s figure, frost began to form between his brows.
Her attacks were fierce, yet the clash of their Sword Intents was perilous only between the two of them, never spilling into surrounding areas. Naturally, both were confident in their ability to control this precision at will.
Lu Yuan’s swordsmanship relied on aggressive assault, while Li Fan seemed to possess only one technique—a swift blade. Yet every strike was timed perfectly, slicing through the sword power Lu Yuan generated and interrupting her Surging Tide Sword Technique.
Lu Yuan appeared to grow genuinely agitated, determination etched into her delicate features. Her attacks grew even more ferocious, reflecting her utmost seriousness.
"Yang Qingshan, do you only have one sword technique?" Lu Yuan asked.
"Fine," he said.
Li Fan replied curtly, launching his Wind and Thunder Sword strike to sever the momentum of her attacks. It was a Clean Cut Strike.
Lu Yuan rotated swiftly, her sword power surging anew, crashing upon Li Fan like tidal waves.
This time, Li Fan’s sword did not merely end; as its light fell, his body leaned forward, his arm sweeping across, and the sword light gleamed like a blade of farewell—heartbreakingly poignant.
