Chapter 638: Twins?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Fourth Form of Saber Truth: Destiny Blade was altogether different from the three preceding forms that were equipped with both offensive and defensive flows; it was impeccably flawless with a menacing edge. This two-styled form was a technique that was purely intended to execute the ultimate kill!

It was definitely a world-ranked assassin's ultimate attack - with unlimited possibilities and ways to deal death.

Wind Beyond The Sky was the paramount technique of an executioner, crafted from scratch; this particular move was aimed towards single opponents, for it was full of unexpected surprises - it would be almost impossible to defend against.

Nonetheless, this was not an entirely flawless technique. To activate this move, one had to concentrate the mystical energy in his entire being, then discharge it in a quick burst. This was the drawback; after executing the move, a lot of mystical Qi would be expended, regardless of whether the target was hit or not.

Mountain of Ivory Bones, the second style, was a technique that reflected its strength in one's killing intent!

When this move was brandished, it would, without exception, leave only a mountain of ivory bones in its wake, no matter how many enemies stood before you.

Both of these moves exuded a large killing aura - Yun Yang was already rattled by merely seeing them in action!

Another key would be the mantra of the form.

"The world is cold when there's wind beyond the sky, the Concourse of the Underworld is built from the saber's blade…"

The Concourse of the Underworld. These words…

Yun Yang's imagination ran amuck as he pondered upon the possibilities behind the phrase. What did this have to do with the assassin organization titled the Concourse of the Underworld? Was this a mere coincidence, or was this a hint of something more?

The vague statement certainly peaked one's interest, prompting one to seek the truth behind it!

At present, Whitey Two and Whitey Three simultaneously bit the leg of his pants, peering up at Yun Yang with anticipation. THey mewled loudly, obviously wishing to head out. How could they not miss the outdoors when they had spent a long time away from home? However, it could not be helped, for the space was previously in a locked-down state. Now that their master was here, it obviously meant that they could return to the human realm - how could they not be tempted?

These siblings had not seen each other in such a long time…

Yun Yang was still drowning himself in the sights and sounds of this new realm. He acceded to their request and waved them away without much thought.

"Go on by yourselves."

…

Despite the awkward situation, where they were already prepared to berate him in a savage manner, Shangguan Lingxiu and Ji Lingxi were secretly overjoyed upon seeing Yun Yang, finally stirring. Judging by how he did not even bother to utter a few words before commencing the healing process, they were aware that Yun Yang had sustained a serious depletion of his energy this time around. Naturally, they did not disturb him, settling themselves in a corner to wait quietly until he woke up for the second time.

"Lingxi, look— his arm…" Shangguan Lingxiu directed her worried gaze towards Yun Yang's shoulder. It had swelled to a size even bigger than his thigh.

Ji Lingxi did not acknowledge it with much concern - she only spared him a casual glance. "If a common man was swollen to a state like this, his arms would already be rendered useless; however, ace mystical Qi cultivators have the ability to heal themselves. The main expertise of Yun Yang's cultivation method is to revive and nourish vital energy - no serious harm will come to him."

"In his current state, we could only do so much for him. Whether we use the mystical Qi from our cultivation base, or the medicinal herbs to get his blood flowing to clear up the bruises, these methods would only alleviate the situation slightly and not completely rid him of the symptoms. However, if Yun Yang uses his mystical Qi to heal his arm until it was back to its original state, not only would there be no further damage, the meridians along his arm will also experience a great deal of enhancement. This is actually beneficial for him."

"Oh, so that's how it is," Shangguan Lingxiu nodded lightly, finally rid of her worries entirely.

For a long while, Yun Yang remained in a deep, recuperative state.

Seeing that there was still no response from Yun Yang, the two bored girls proceeded to talk in hushed voices. Ji Lingxi's eyes widened as she turned around unintentionally just as she was about to switch to another topic. "Eh?"

Shangguan Lingxiu followed Ji Lingxi's gaze. "Huh?"

Yun Yang was still lying down, but his swollen arm and shoulder seemed to have reduced in size, now resembling a human's arm once again.

Under the intense gaze of the two girls, the swelling reduced at a speed visible to the human eye, rapidly decreasing in size.

It grew a little smaller the first time around.

It reduced a little more…

Yet a little more…

In the end, it reverted to its original, mint condition!

Ji Lingxi's eyeballs nearly popped out in disbelief after witnessing this entire scene.

Shangguan Lingxiu might not have witnessed a swelling as serious as Yun Yang's, but Ji Lingxi did have multiple encounters with such a scenario, hence, she was well aware of his situation and the normal development of its symptoms.

From what she remembered, the swellings she had witnessed before - which were not as horrifying as Yun Yang's - required a healing process of at least five to six days before they could even begin to revert to its original state!

Comparing the situation now to slightly earlier, where she nonchalantly explained his condition to Shangguan Lingxiu, it was merely a consolation more than anything else.

According to Ji Lingxi's knowledge of situations similar to Yun Yang's current predicament, the swelling would not heal without at least half a month or even a month's worth of effort.

Now, however… Yun Yang's grotesque, shapelessly swollen arm had entirely healed itself!

"W-What's happening? Isn't this practically impossible?" Ji Lingxi murmured incoherently, her hand half-outstretched to feel Yun Yang's arm.

Shangguan Lingxiu looked on with a nervous expression and gulped loudly. "Lingxi, is it alright for you to… t-touch him…?"

Her question was actually to determine a pertinent point; why was there no light?

"Pardon?"

Ji Lingxi turned around, clueless in the face of Shangguan Lingxiu's question. Her face flushed red instantly when she was hit by an instant realization. "I touched him… I-I touched-- oh, Sister Lingxiu, really… what are you even saying…" She stammered obscurely.

Shangguan Lingxiu was momentarily speechless. "You're allowed to touch, yet I am not allowed to speak?"

Ji Lingxi's face flushed a deeper red. "I didn't say you're not allowed… Sister Lingxiu, why don't you come over and feel it yourself… I'm not seeing this wrong, am I?"

Shangguan Lingxiu was clearly worried. She extended her hand to caress Yun Yang's arm, giving it a few pinches and presses here and there, before saying, "The swelling is really gone - even his flesh has returned to its original, muscular state, and it certainly doesn't feel fake to the touch…"

After agreeing with each other, the two girls were once again befuddled. "What is going on, then? How could he heal himself in such a short time?"

The girls, between the both of them, had quite a variety of expertise and experience in many fields. Still, they had never chanced upon a swelling that healed in such a swift and clean manner!

As they allowed their imagination to run wild, they realized, with a tremendous shock, that Yun Yang's abdomen seemed a little… bloated?

Their eyes widened in disbelief!

A little bump had emerged there as if there was something… wriggling in that position.

Their faces grew hot with embarrassment as they each secretly took a nervous gulp. They quickly realized that the reason behind the wiggling was not like what they had imagined… Suddenly, this seemed even more bizarre.

The reason behind the girls' alternate deduction was because the little bump did not stay in its initial position. Instead, it swam upwards beneath the sheath of garments, just wading higher and higher…

Under the intense scrutiny of the two girls, a tiny, furry head popped out from beneath Yun Yang's robes, its little fresh eyes darting around the room to study its surroundings before tilting its head, and emitting a loud -

"Meow."

Upon hearing the sound, the two girls were frozen in shock.

Four pretty eyeballs nearly fell out of their sockets.

The movement had started from his abdomen… then, a kitten had emerged, barely the size of a palm.

Shangguan Lingxiu felt her vision blurring from shock. "H-h-he… he gave birth… t-to a… c-cat…" She wheezed, almost inaudibly.

Ji Lingxi was in a complete state of shock. "T-that's n-not all…"

There was another round of wriggling that originated from Yun Yang's abdomen once again.

Then, it took a route similar to the one before, journeying upwards, until…

"Meow."

Another kitten, barely the size of a closed fist, squeezed itself out.

Could they be… twins?
