“Su Zhu.”
The Phoenix Prince said, “The two of us have always worked together to fight enemies. Whether we’re up against a single person, two people or even ten people, the two of us will deal with it together!”
“That’s right.”
The Phoenix Princess added, “If you want to interfere in this matter, you can join forces with Long Li. It’ll still be just the two of us!”
The two of them were indeed not spouting nonsense about that.
The two of them had cultivated together since they were young and were telepathic.
The combination of the two of them and their tacit understanding allowed them to unleash combat strength that far surpassed their own.
Even if two Supreme Perfected Spirits joined forces, it would be difficult for them to gain the upper hand against them.
“Oh?”
Su Zimo smiled. “I have some ties with Fellow Daoist Long Li. Since we’ve met today, it’s a good opportunity for me to experience your capabilities!” Initially, Lin Xunzhen wanted to join forces with Su Zimo.
However, Su Zimo glanced sideways and said in a low voice, “Go take care of Long Li later. There are many Evil Fiends and Sin Spirits nearby and they might take advantage of the situation.”
Lin Xunzhen used her spirit consciousness to scan and could not help but frown.
Indeed.
The two of them were lured over here by the commotion. However, there were also many Evil Fiends and Sin Spirits that had gradually gathered over. They hid nearby and were restless, eying covetously.
The number of Evil Fiends and Sin Spirits in the vicinity increased.
On Long Li’s side, there were only ten people and they were all covered in injuries.
Long Li had just released her peerless divine power and it was equivalent to losing her greatest reliance. If she had to face the attacks of so many Evil Fiends and Sin Spirits, she might really encounter some danger.
“Leaving you alone…”
However, Lin Xunzhen was still worried about Su Zimo.
If she protected Long Li and the others, it meant that Su Zimo had to face the combined attacks of the Phoenix Prince and the Phoenix Princess alone.
Among the Perfected Spirits, the combination of the two of them was the hardest to defend against.
“Don’t worry.”
Su Zimo’s tone was firm as he sent a voice transmission, “The two of them can’t hurt me.”
When Lin Xunzhen heard Su Zimo’s relaxed tone, she felt slightly relieved. She nodded and sped towards Long Li.
Brother Su Zhu, be careful of their weapons.”
Right then, Long Li’s reminder sounded in Su Zimo’s mind. “The Phoenix Prince has a strong physique and blood qi. He uses the Phoenix Feather Spear and is good at melee combat. The Phoenix Princess wields the Phoenix Bone Bow and Phoenix Feather Arrow and searches for flaws from afar, waiting for an opportunity to strike.”
Su Zimo nodded slightly.
Chi! Chi! Chi!
Su Zimo did not exchange pleasantries with the Phoenix Prince and the Phoenix Princess. Raising his hand, he used his finger sword and slashed out two Heaven Slaying Sword Qis in the direction where the two of them were standing!
“Hrnph!”
As a Supreme Perfected Spirit, the Phoenix Prince no longer had any reservations when he saw Su Zimo attack first. He transformed into a streak of flames and charged towards Su Zimo.
Phew!
The Phoenix Feather Spear burned with raging flames and tore through the air, stabbing towards Su Zimo’s head with a series of Phoenix cries!
Su Zimo had a calm expression. Just as he was about to retreat and dodge, his spirit perception suddenly warned!
“Hmm?”
Su Zimo glanced from the corner of his eye.
In the distance, the Phoenix Princess stood in midair and the Phoenix Bone Bow in her hands was already fully drawn. The Phoenix Feather Arrow was already on the string and was aimed at Su Zimo.
To be precise, the Phoenix Princess had already determined Su Zimo’s escape route. If the arrow was fired, it would seal his escape route!
“The two of them are indeed telepathic. It’s truly admirable that they’re able to cooperate to this extent.”
A thought flashed through Su Zimo’s mind.
However, his movements did not change. He still retreated and dodged the sharpest edge of the Phoenix Feather Spear.
Swoosh!
A scarlet flame tore through the void and left a burn mark in midair.
The Phoenix Princess would not miss this opportunity!
The Phoenix Feather Arrow had already locked onto Su Zimo’s escape route!
As long as Su Zimo retreated, he would definitely collide with her Phoenix Feather Arrow.
The cooperation between the two of them had long seeped into their bones. In fact, there was no need for any communication, as though they were born with it and shared the same body.
Su Zimo was still retreating.
However, after dodging the sharpest edge of the Phoenix Feather Spear, he extended his palm and cut the side of the Phoenix Feather Spear gently.
Su Zimo did not use his blood qi for that palm strike and only used 50% of his strength.
However, it was enough to change the original trajectory of the Phoenix Feather Spear!
The Phoenix Feather Spear shuddered and deviated slightly, slashing past Su Zimo’s side.
At the same time, the flames of the Phoenix Feather Arrow arrived and struck the tip of the Phoenix Feather Spear directly-it was pinpoint accurate!
Clang!
The Phoenix Feather Spear and Phoenix Feather Arrow, two Pure Yang Spirit Treasures, collided beside Su Zimo with a loud bang and flames surged!
The two Pure Yang Spirit Treasures released their strongest strength but could not injure Su Zimo at all.
Instead, Su Zimo made use of their strength and resolved the attack ingeniously.
The entire process happened in a flash. Although it seemed simple, it showed
Su Zimo’s precise control of the situation and timing!
“Haha!”
Su Zimo burst into laughter and continued retreating in the direction he came from. He shook his head. “So that’s all there is to the Phoenix Prince and the Phoenix Princess.”
The Phoenix Prince and the Phoenix Princess had never been provoked like this before and were enraged.
The blood qi in the Phoenix Prince’s body surged as he charged towards Su
Zimo once more with the Phoenix Feather Spear.
The Phoenix Princess drew her Phoenix Bone Bow as well and followed closely behind. Far away from Su Zimo, she stared fixedly at him, ready to fire a fatal arrow at any moment!
However, Su Zimo’s movement technique was extremely fast and agile.
A pair of ethereal wings grew behind him. His location was erratic and the Phoenix Prince and the Phoenix Princess could not lock onto him for a moment.
When the Phoenix Prince saw that Su Zimo did not fight them, he could not help but feel enraged and mocked, “I’ve long heard that the Peak Master of the Sword World’s ninth Sword Peak once killed ten Perfected Spirits of the Heavenly Eye race singlehandedly with a single sword strike. I thought that he was rather capable.”
“To think that seeing you today would be such a huge disappointment. So, you’re just a timid rat who only knows how to cover his head and scurry!”
“Su Zhu, you cultivate the Sword Dao and should be pressing forward. Why are you retreating time and again?!”
The Phoenix Princess berated as well.
Su Zimo did not reply and merely had a faint smile on his face.
In that short period of time, the three of them chased and retreated, rapidly approaching another battlefield.
Meanwhile, the Perfected Spirit experts led by the Insect, Rat and Ant Worlds were still fighting against Luo Jun and the other ten-odd Sin Spirit sword cultivators.
The Supreme Perfected Spirits of the Insect, Rat and Ant Worlds were already prepared to release their peerless divine powers when they saw that they had suffered heavy casualties and their attacks were not getting through!
The three of them did not believe that they could not kill this plain-clothed sword cultivator with three peerless divine powers!
Right then, Su Zimo suddenly stopped and released Heavenly Feet, Boundless Golden Light and other movement techniques. He sped up once more and charged towards the Phoenix Princess.
The Phoenix Prince’s expression changed starkly!
Compared to him, the Phoenix Princess was not good at melee combat.
As for the Phoenix Princess’ Phoenix Bone Bow and Phoenix Feather Arrow, they could not unleash their full might in melee combat.
Swoosh!
When the Phoenix Princess saw Su Zimo charging over, she fired another arrow in a panic. However, Su Zimo dodged it easily.
She only had one chance to shoot this arrow.
Before she could draw the second Phoenix Feather Arrow, Su Zimo had already closed in. His black hair flew wildly and his gaze was like a torch.. He was like an unsheathed sword that wanted to slash her into two!
