Chapter 1022 - 279: Frost Blade Slices Clouds, Shattered Demon Shadows, Blood-soaked Sands Bury Asura (Part 2)

Xie Zhichuan hurriedly followed, pitching his voice to echo, "Master Zhong is absolutely right! What could those women possibly accomplish? With the Sect Leader’s command, we shall flatten Wulang City and turn Shi Feiyang’s stronghold upside down, so the world knows that to oppose the Western Holy Sect is a path to death!"

Dugu Yan’s pale face bore a morbid flush as he smiled sinisterly, "Sect Leader, such a golden opportunity to achieve great deeds must not be missed. By taking the Naiman Tribe, we sever Shi Feiyang’s arm and expand our sect’s influence, striking two birds with one stone!"

Qi Yin sat regally on the tiger-skin chair, listening to the flattering words of the crowd, a hint of approval flickering in his eyes.

He nodded slightly, speaking in a deep voice, "Master Zhong indeed has courage and wisdom, worthy of being the leader of the Central Earth Beggar Gang, renowned throughout the world! This plan is excellent; it aligns perfectly with my intention." With that, he suddenly slapped the armrest, stood up, and commanded powerfully, "Defender of the Faith ’Black-winged Rakshasa’ Uma, hear the order! Immediately lead Master Zhong and the gathered heroes, along with our Western Holy Sect’s three thousand elite disciples, for an overnight expedition to raid the Naiman Tribe’s capital, Wulang City! Ensure you swiftly bring down the Naiman Tribe completely, or face military punishment for any negligence!"

The crowd responded in unison, with a swift sound drawing weapons, clasping their fists and exclaiming, "For the Sect Leader, we plunge through fire and water, without hesitation!"

The sound made dust fall quietly from the tent.

Every face was marked with ferocity and greed, as if the treasures and beauties of Wulang City were already within reach.

Dusk spread like a spilled vessel of thick ink, silently cloaking Wulang City’s ramparts, painting the world into a profound shade.

Hundreds of tallow lanterns gradually illuminated the walls, their warm yellow glow flickering like a river of stars scattered among humanity, cloaking this city, about to face warfare, with a gentle veil.

Shi Feiyang stood atop the city head, hands behind him, his dark cloak billowing in the night breeze like a hawk poised to strike.

The complex, exquisite dark patterns at the cloak’s edges appeared faintly under the lamp light, as if stars twirling, adding to his imposing, mysterious presence. His sword-like eyebrows tapered strikingly into his temples, his sharp eyes sparkling like a hawk, seemingly able to penetrate the night’s veil, discerning all worldly plots and schemes; yet also harboring boundless determination that none could unsettle.

Below his straight nose, thin lips pressed tightly, sketching a firm line, brimming with boldness and resolve; his chiseled features reflecting a masculine aura, each inch seemingly crafted meticulously by the heavens.

His hair drifted gently in the wind, carrying an air of unbridled freedom, as if reveling with the wind, yet also narrating his legendary tale.

At this moment, Shi Feiyang stood tall as a pine, his spine straight as a spear, radiating comforting strength all around him.

His hands clasped behind him, his clearly defined knuckles occasionally clenching into a fist.

He was contemplating a strategy to defeat the enemy, silently accumulating the powerful force ready to erupt soon.

He stood there quietly, like a majestic mountain, unyielding to the roaring winds and pouring rain.

As long as he was there, this city would remain impregnable.

Behind Shi Feiyang, four men stood like loyal guardians, firmly protecting.

"Flying Eagle Detective" Xie Wen’s gaze was sharp like a hawk, constantly alert to the slightest stirring; Shi Xiong tightly gripped the White Rainbow Treasure Sword, the sword’s tassels fluttering loudly in the wind, seemingly impatient to taste enemy blood.

Meanwhile, Guo Xiangyu gently caressed her bamboo knife, her eyes full of a unique tenderness.

Her gaze closely followed Shi Feiyang’s figure, filled with concern and admiration, frequently stealing glances at him, unable to conceal the deep affection in her eyes, hot and intense like the warm spring sun.

Guo Xiangyu’s heart was already consumed by Shi Feiyang.

Despite learning upon arriving in Wulang City that Shi Feiyang had multiple wives, this love did not diminish in the slightest, instead growing stronger. In her view, such excellent women deeply loving Shi Feiyang only attested to his exceptional charm.

She felt proud of Shi Feiyang, solidifying her resolve further.

Shi Feiyang was like the light of her life, illuminating her entire world, her soul already closely tied to his.

She gazed at Shi Feiyang’s back, filled with longing.

She dreamed that one day she could also be among the many wives of Shi Feiyang, alongside those women, steadfastly protecting him.

She wished to face hardships for Shi Feiyang, to solve problems for him, dedicating everything she has to Shi Feiyang.

Even if it was simply handing him a cup of hot tea, or gently wiping his sweat when he was weary, she would feel immense happiness.

At this moment, Guo Xiangyu gently bit her lip, a hint of shyness and determination passing through her eyes, silently vowing in her heart, "Dearest, no matter how many difficulties lie ahead, I am willing to walk shoulder to shoulder with you; in this life, I am devoted solely to you."

Night descended like ink, yet couldn’t conceal the five strands of fragrant wind sweeping through the corridor. Amidst the jingling sound of ornaments, Yili, the Naiman Tribe’s leader, clad in a Golden Armor, with a crimson cloak billowing like flames, deftly as a soldier, yet undiminished in the heroic spirit and tenderness in her demeanor.

She swiftly ascended the city head, her slender hand tightly clasping Shi Feiyang’s palm, her fingertips trembling slightly, as if grasping the singular treasure of her life: "Husband, the Western Holy Sect is launching a full-fledged attack, their methods cruel and vicious. Though I lead the Naiman warriors in defense, my heart remains moment by moment with you."
