King of Hundred Victories Saber

She looked at Shi Feiyang, her eyes full of reliance.

Shi Feiyang remained calm and said with a smile, ”That’s not necessary. We don’t need the pomp and formalities of court officials; I don’t like that.” He paused, then teased, ”Besides, let’s give the brothers in the Liaodong branches a surprise.”

Everyone laughed heartily, and the tense atmosphere eased a little. However, behind the laughter, everyone understood that the danger might not have truly passed, and the road ahead was still full of unknowns and challenges.

The heroes chatted for a while and after enjoying the fragrant breakfast brought by Shi Xiong, each went off to rest.

Shi Feiyang and Yang Xue’Er continued to indulge warmly in the small pavilion.

At noon, sunlight filtered through the window lattice, adding a touch of warmth to Shi Feiyang and Yang Xue’Er’s room.

The two woke up leisurely, their faces filled with the sweetness and happiness of newlyweds.

They got up and walked hand in hand into the bathroom, where they lay together in the bathtub, enjoying a playful moment.

The warm steam surrounded them, akin to their intense feelings, hovering and circulating in the air.

Yang Xue’Er’s laughter was crisp like silver bells, while Shi Feiyang’s face was full of doting affection.

At this moment, they forgot the turmoil and dangers of the Jianghu, immersing themselves in a world for just the two of them, savoring the joy of being newlyweds.

However, the crisis in the Jianghu did not disperse because of this moment of tranquility.

After lunch, when the heroes just reached Shi Feiyang and Yang Xue’Er’s small pavilion to chat over tea, ”Flying Eagle Detective” Xie Wen hurried back, his expression grave. He quickly walked inside, knelt on one knee, and reported to Shi Feiyang, ”Grand Squad Leader, twenty miles east of Shanhai Pass, many formidable enemies are in ambush. Jinyi Guard expert Lian Jaben, Beggar Gang Leader Zhong Renwang, Divine Sword Manor Young Manor Master Xie Zhichuan, Outer Border Demoness Fu Anxing, Great Kasyapa Qi Shield Wan Liupiao, and the four Central Plains Cao Bang Vice Gang Leaders Peng Siyu, Peng Sixian, Peng Siwei, and Peng Sixuan have gathered in Sword Casting Valley, setting a trap, just waiting for us to fall into it.”

Xie Wen’s words were like a sledgehammer, breaking the tranquility inside the room, immediately filling the air with tension.

Shi Feiyang listened, his brow slightly furrowed, and countless strategies flashed through his mind in an instant. In a moment, he came up with a plan.

He remained composed, his gaze firm as he said, ”Please have everyone stand up.”

Although the heroes were full of doubts and did not understand his intention, since the Grand Squad Leader had given an order, none dared to disobey. They all stood up neatly.

Shi Feiyang then removed the deer-skin pouch from his waist that ordinary people couldn’t see.

The deer-skin pouch looked ordinary, yet it concealed mysteries, presumably a mystical dimensional space.

Shi Feiyang circulated his Inner Strength, muttering under his breath. The pouch’s opening slowly widened, emanating a peculiar glow.

With a light wave of his hand, the heroes felt themselves enveloped by a gentle yet strong power, drifting involuntarily towards the pouch, and in an instant, they were all packed into the pouch. Subsequently, Shi Feiyang went to the backyard and, using the same method, packed those few fine horses into the pouch as well.

After making all the preparations, Shi Feiyang took a deep breath and executed the ”Supreme Lightness Technique” known as ”A Thousand Miles Without a Trace.”

He flickered like a flash of white light, instantly flying out of Shanhai Pass, rushing towards Sword Casting Valley where Zhong Renwang and others lay in ambush.

In the blink of an eye, he arrived at Sword Casting Valley.

This Sword Casting Valley had extremely perilous terrain, surrounded by high mountains like a natural barrier. The valley was shrouded in mist all year round, with haze enveloping it like a thin veil, adding a mysterious and eerie tint.

The valley was filled with a scorching breath, as if beneath it lay a blazing furnace that could erupt at any moment.

An ancient Sword Tomb lay hidden deep within the clouds, where countless remnants of famous swords lay silent, having been tempered by time, witnessing countless slaughters and glory, silently recounting the splendors and vicissitudes of the past.

Shi Feiyang floated down, landing steadily in the valley.

His eyes swept around like torches, and he declared loudly, ”All you petty Jianghu scoundrels, come out! I, Shi Feiyang, have come alone to meet you. If I die here today, it would be an honor, worthy of your efforts to dig a pit. If I survive and walk out, then you scoundrels will have to exhaust your wits and gray your hair again.” His voice was sonorous and powerful, echoing through the valley like a great bell, stirring the mist to swirl.

As soon as his voice fell, Xie Zhichuan, with a shrill and insane laugh, stepped out from the shadows. His laughter was sharp and crazy, unusually piercing in the silent valley. As he formed seals rapidly with his hands, mumbling enchantments, a formidable and evil force gathered around him.

In an instant, the thirty-six Sword Puppets scattered in the valley rose slowly, drawing towards Xie Zhichuan, merging with each other, and gradually forming the ”Heavenly Constellation Sword Body.” This ”Heavenly Constellation Sword Body” was tall and mighty, countless remnants of famous swords floating around it, sparking with eerie blue light, like a pack of hungry beasts exuding a chilling aura, ready to pounce on their prey and tear it to pieces at any moment.

Seeing this, Shi Feiyang’s expression became serious. He knew that the danger of this battle far exceeded any before; he dared not relax in the slightest.

He took a deep breath, activated the Bright Jade Technique, and his True Qi roared like a surging river through his meridians.

Instantly, a faint aura enveloped him, with runes flickering within, emanating a mysterious and powerful force.
