King of Hundred Victories Saber

At this moment, the camp was silent, with only Lie Quan leading some disciples on patrol, their footsteps softly echoing in the night. Shi Feiyang had long gone to sleep with Lin Wanqing and Liu Guihua, after a day of traveling and fierce battles, they too needed a good rest.

Gong Simeng and Bai Zhi returned to their own tent.

Inside the tent, it was arranged warmly and elegantly.

Gong Simeng, a talented and versatile beauty, wore a light blue brocade robe, with embroidered delicate orchid patterns at the hem, swaying like orchids in the wind as she moved. Her face was charming, her skin like snow, her eyes bright and lively, exuding intelligence and gentleness. Her long hair, like black silk, casually draped over her shoulders.

Bai Zhi, the Miaojiang beauty, wore a colorful Miao dress, embroidered with strange totems, full of mysterious aura.

Her eyes were like deep dark pools, full of allure as she glanced around. The two bathed and changed, washing away the fatigue and then rested, to restore their strength for the journey ahead.

The next morning, as dawn’s light broke, the sun shone on the camp.

The heroes woke up one after another and gathered for breakfast.

While eating, everyone asked Shi Feiyang about when they would head south to Bozhou. ”Grand Squad Leader, when are we heading south to Bozhou? The brothers are eager to contribute to the Imperial Court!” Liao Pei, with the ”Long Arm Fist,” asked straightforwardly.

Shi Feiyang smiled slightly, his gaze sweeping over everyone, and said slowly, ”Previously, I mentioned, pacifying Bozhou is not a matter to be solved overnight, it takes years of effort. Therefore, we shouldn’t be anxious; when it’s time to contribute to the Imperial Court, I will certainly take the lead. Right now, we’re stationed here on the prairie, also serving the Imperial Court, contributing to the well-being of all. From this incident, we can conclude that the Ha-ha Map and the Kerchin Tribe are bound to invade the Lindan Tribe. When the Lindan Tribe is in dire straits, they will certainly apply to the Great Ming Court for reinforcements. But where can the court immediately deploy so many troops? Besides, reinforcements are like fire relief, distant water won’t quench near thirst. Looking around, only we are closest to the Lindan Tribe. After a few more days, we can engage in battle on this prairie, assisting the court in quelling the rebellion.”

”Great! The Grand Squad Leader is right! We’ll have a grand battle here on the prairie and let those thieves know the might of our Heroic Sakura Association!” The heroes responded, laughing aloud, and their doubts and anxieties were instantly relieved.

Shi Feiyang immediately ordered the cutting of trees and instructed the disciples to bring stones, forming a small fortress of stone and wood structures.

He commanded as he went, ”Brothers, this small fortress will be our stronghold, and it will surely serve a great purpose in the future.”

He also instructed the heroes to lead the disciples in digging pits inside the fortress and planting bamboo spikes and arrowheads within, ”Once an enemy attacks, they will have no escape and meet a tragic end here.”

The heroes understood his intent and acted accordingly, working together to make the camp as strong as a fortress. Once everything was set, Shi Feiyang took his wives and children, strolling across the prairie, fully appreciating the majestic scenery.

In the midsummer, the vast prairie resembled an endless green ocean, with dense green grass swaying in the wind, rolling and stretching to the horizon, blending with the blue sky and white clouds.

In this broad and open space, herds of cattle and sheep grazed leisurely, either lowering their heads to graze or strolling contentedly, unperturbed by the world’s disturbances. The steeds galloped incessantly, their vigorous forms racing across the prairie like lightning tearing through the sky, their loud and resonant neighs echoing across the expansive prairie, adding a touch of vitality and liveliness to this serene prairie.

Amidst it all, Shi Feiyang and his family indulged in the tranquility and harmony of nature, feeling the gentle caress of the breeze, listening to the melodious chirping of insects and birds, as if enveloped in a heartwarming and beautiful picture.

The breeze lightly brushed past, carrying the unique scent of the prairie, a mix of floral and grassy fragrance, fresh and pleasant, directly soothing to the mind. This aroma seemed to have a magical power, calming and comforting the heart.

All worries and troubles were gently carried away by the soft breeze, leaving only inner peace and calm.

However, good times are always short-lived.

Suddenly, a rapid sound of hooves emerged from afar, like the intense beat of drums, instantly shattering the peace of the prairie.

Shi Feiyang frowned, his eagle-sharp eyes quickly looking in the direction of the sound. He saw a group of black-clad riders galloping toward them, kicking up clouds of dust like a black dragon rolling across the prairie.

These riders all wore stern expressions, their eyes filled with ferocity and greed, holding sharp weapons in their hands, the blades gleaming coldly in the sunlight, like the fangs of a venomous snake, emitting a deadly aura, clearly coming with ill intent.

Shi Feiyang cursed inwardly, realizing that a crisis had arrived.

Without hesitation, he quickly shielded his family behind him, his movements like a towering mountain, sheltering them from the wind and rain.

He softly said to everyone, ”Do not panic, it seems we’ve encountered trouble today. But rest assured, ladies, with me, Shi Feiyang, here, I guarantee no harm will come to you. The Jianghu is fraught with danger, today is a test for us, stay calm and watch how I repel these bandits.” His voice was steady and firm, filled with a reassuring strength, calming the originally frightened hearts of the ladies and children, gradually stabilizing their emotions under his comfort. Shi Feiyang’s gaze was as cold as frost, instantly adjusting himself, his aura flowing, fully prepared to face the challenge.
