Moonlit Tower Master

On a cold night, beneath a clear, chill moon, before Liufeng Palace, Red Luan bewitched the heart. In the instant the wind rose, the Demonic Body appeared as well, sword light pressing for lives.

Palms and swords met, and the aftermath surged in all directions. The crimson mist was scattered by the sword wind, its languid scent vanishing between heaven and earth.

Storms churned atop the Grand Beginning Sword, killing intent flowing around it. With a single slash, a wild gale roared in fury, the sword cleaving through waves of dust.

The Red Luan Princess turned her palm to block the sword. A ringing clash sounded as rapid moves collided, dozens of exchanges of attack and defense passing in the blink of an eye.

Threads of crimson mist spread across heaven and earth, weaving a Heavenly Net and Earthly Web. Yet the black-clad figure moved like a startled swan; before one sword stroke was spent, another rose. His sword momentum flashed like lightning, severing every restraint.

At the center of the battle, the red-clad figure stood still, no change visible in his eyes. A moment later, he raised his hand and clenched it, and Ink Frenzy revealed its edge.

With a clang, the two swords locked together. Sword Qi rippled outward. Their gazes met—equally cold, equally merciless.

The two bodies fought once more. After that single glance, there was no room left for reconciliation. Sword edges revolved, killing light flooding the heavens.

In an instant, the battle turned white-hot. Ink Frenzy and the Grand Beginning Sword rang out as their edges crossed and swept about. Phoenix Essence surged, blossoming into splendid rainbow hues across the night sky.

The Red Luan Princess withdrew from the battle and watched the two men fighting, light flickering ceaselessly in her eyes.
