May I wrong...
Maximum you may get : xor of missing two numbers. But xor of different numbers may be equal. See http://rextester.com/BBMAI41221 , so I think that you cannot find this two numbers from XOR operation.
Let your's missing numbers 2*m , and 2*m + 1, but for any m : (2*m) XOR (2*m+1) = 1. How you can find they??
Why you do not use simplist way:
bool visit[n]array )) ? It's O(n) algo, and O(n) memory.
