Twin Swords Combination

Bu Le's lecherous expression was truly nauseating, and his words had made Lan Hong's anger flare.

"Lan Hong, calm down!"

Hong Mao's voice rang out, instantly calming Lan Hong. In battle, acting on impulse was the greatest taboo, and Bu Le had already summoned his martial soul and made his move!

Bu Le's martial soul, the Heavenly Net Twin Covers, was an extremely sleazy martial soul, but anyone who underestimated him because of that would be making a grave mistake.

No matter what, he was still a Spirit King, while Lan Hong was only a Soul Grandmaster.

Bu Le sent his martial soul sweeping toward Lan Hong. Lan Hong sped up to evade it, then began circling Bu Le, searching for an opening.

"No wonder you managed to injure Scarlet Leopard. You do have some skill! But I'm a Spirit King! Third Spirit Skill, Heavenly Net Earthly Web!"

This spirit skill only had a decent name. In reality, it merely enlarged his martial soul and cast it over Lan Hong.

"The range is too wide. I can't run!"

Lan Hong swung his sword and shot into the sky along with it. This move was called Flying Dragon in the Sky.

Riiip! Bu Le's martial soul was torn apart by Lan Hong's Flying Dragon in the Sky.

"How is that possible?!"

Bu Le stared in disbelief. Lan Hong would not let such a good opportunity slip away, stabbing at Bu Le with Qi Piercing the Rainbow. The scorching crimson sword energy was tremendously powerful.

"Fourth Spirit Skill, Guardian Shield!"

Bu Le transformed his martial soul into a shield and raised it before himself.

"Second Spirit Skill, Shadow Dodge! First Spirit Skill, Red Leopard Charge!"

Scarlet Leopard seized the chance to charge at Lan Hong, only to have his body pierced by a sword the instant he moved.

Hong Mao had been summoned by Lan Hong. He showed no mercy, killing Scarlet Leopard with that single strike.

"Could this be your true martial soul?"

Bu Le did not care in the slightest about Scarlet Leopard's death. What shocked him was Lan Hong's martial soul. A martial soul that could leave its owner's body was exceedingly rare.

Lan Hong ignored Bu Le and joined Hong Mao in attacking him with perfect mutual understanding.

Bu Le was forced back step by step by the two Changhong Swords, while his Heavenly Net Twin Covers martial soul was ripped to tatters.

"Damn it! Fifth Spirit Skill, Twin Cage Prison!"

This move was incredibly fast. Lan Hong and Hong Mao were both trapped inside in an instant.

Moreover, after they were trapped, the space around them continued shrinking. Bu Le wanted to crush them to death in there.

"Lan Hong, try Twin Swords Combination!"

"Alright!"

Lan Hong switched to the Ice Soul Sword, gathered his Soul Power, and unleashed Ice Sky Snow Land. Hong Mao used Changhong Pierces the Sun. Their Twin Swords Combination shattered Bu Le's Twin Cage Prison head-on.

"That's impossible!"

Squelch! The sound of blades piercing flesh rang out as two sharp swords stabbed into Bu Le's heart. This villain who preyed upon men and women alike had finally met his retribution.

Lan Hong let out a long breath. The Ice Soul Sword in his hand vanished, and Hong Mao disappeared as well, returning to Lan Hong's body.

"That took too much out of me! The final Twin Swords Combination completely drained my Soul Power!"

"It couldn't be helped. I'm your martial soul, so the expenditure has to come from you. One person bearing the cost of two people fighting really is exhausting!"

"You did wonderfully to defeat such a powerful enemy! Little Hong, rest for a while, then hurry back to the city and get some proper rest. It isn't safe here!"

"Alright! I know!"

After cultivating and recovering for a while, Lan Hong regained some Soul Power and began searching the bodies.

"A Spatial Soul Tool. That's quite a haul!"

Lan Hong looked through the items in Bu Le's Soul Tool, and his face darkened.

He then dumped out all those obscene items, the same sort as Bu Le's martial soul, leaving only some Gold Soul Coins.

Finally, he moved Bu Le and Scarlet Leopard's bodies together and burned them to ashes.

Bu Le still had two brothers, E Kao and Tian Ya. Those two were even stronger than Bu Le. Once they discovered that Bu Le had disappeared, they might trace things back to him.

Therefore, Lan Hong decided to change his plans and leave Suotuo City for Barak City.

The next day, Lan Hong packed his things and left Suotuo City. Suotuo City was quite far from Barak City, but the route was all official road. Along the way, he encountered a merchant caravan and traveled with them, arriving safely in Barak City.

As the main city of the Balak Kingdom, Barak City was naturally far more prosperous than Suotuo City. Barak City had not received much description in the original plot; only Barak Academy had appeared as a minor extra.

But anyone who underestimated this place would be gravely mistaken. As the capital of a kingdom, it had no shortage of powerful experts.

Otherwise, Shrek Academy would not have been forced to move to Suotuo City. Flender had originally established Shrek Academy in Barak City, but after clashing with the lord of Barak City, he had been forced to relocate to Suotuo City.

For that reason, Shrek had always been an unregistered, second-rate academy.

After arriving in Barak City, the first thing Lan Hong did was find a place to stay. He picked a hotel at random, but unexpectedly ran into trouble again.

"Sir, your luck is quite good. There's only one room left!"

"Oh? Not bad. Saves me the trouble of looking elsewhere."

At that moment, two women, one older and one younger, entered. The older one looked to be in her twenties or thirties. She had slightly wavy black hair, striking features, and a voluptuous figure accentuated by her fitted clothes.

The younger one looked around fourteen or fifteen. Her fiery red short hair was especially eye-catching, and her equally fiery red outfit practically announced her fire attribute to the world.

Though her figure had not fully developed yet, it was already taking shape. She would surely grow into a stunning beauty in the future.

Lan Hong merely glanced at them once before preparing to find his room.

"We need rooms! Give us two rooms!"

"My apologies, ladies, but we're fully booked! The last room has already been taken by that young gentleman!"

Upon hearing the receptionist's words, the young beauty looked toward Lan Hong.

"Stop!"

Lan Hong pretended not to hear and continued walking.

"Stop! Didn't you hear this young lady telling you to stop?"

Lan Hong had not expected this young beauty to be so overbearing. She charged straight at him.

Lan Hong dodged with a flash, and the young beauty nearly fell when she could not stop in time.

"You actually dared to dodge!"

Lan Hong frowned at those words. This young beauty was far too unreasonable.

"Miss, is there something you need?"

"Hmph! You, give us the last room!"

"My apologies. I have no intention of giving up my room. There are plenty of inns in the city. You can find another one to stay in."

"Hmph! I want to stay here today. Are you giving it up or not?"

"No. Miss, aren't you going to do something about her?"

"Huo Wu!"

"Teacher Yan Yue, I don't want to run around looking for another place!"

"Sigh! Young man, you can see how it is. Why not bear the pain and give up the room?"

"One hundred Gold Soul Coins."

"Hm? What did you say?"

"One hundred Gold Soul Coins, and I'll give up the room!"

"Why don't you just rob us?!"

"If you're unwilling, then please do as you wish. I'm going back to my room to rest."

From her name, Lan Hong knew that this young beauty was Huo Wu of Blazing Fire Academy, while the older woman was a teacher from Blazing Fire Academy.

But there was no way he would give up his room without compensation.
