Chapter 982 - 271: Ingeniously Entering the Hidden Chamber to Seize the Treasure, Skillfully Concealing Himself to Avoid Disaster (Part 3)

Her eyes were full of determination, with only the image of Shi Feiyang in her mind. She kept silently repeating in her heart, "My lord, wait for me. I will definitely protect you and never let you get hurt. You are the light in my life, and I am willing to give my all for you, even my life."

Dugu Chang, Li Yuannai, Li Yuanshun, Li Yuanjun, Li Yuanji, and Li Yuanyou, all had their eyes wide open in anger, as if they were about to shoot fire from them. Their faces were full of anger and urgency, like a pack of enraged wolves.

They held swords and knives tightly in their hands, the weapons gleaming with a cold sheen in the sunlight, eagerly yearning to drink the blood of their enemies. Dugu Chang, with a fierce kick, smashed the door of Shi Feiyang’s room. That kick, full of endless anger and power, was akin to a heavy hammer. With a loud "bang," like a bolt from the blue, the door crashed down, stirring up a cloud of dust.

However, inside the room was empty, without a trace of Shi Feiyang. Everyone was stunned, looking at each other, eyes filled with shock and suspicion. Their eyes held both the shock of Shi Feiyang disappearing into thin air and the unwillingness for the plan to fail.

"Where is he? Shi Feiyang is not here!" Dugu Chang’s eyebrows furrowed tightly together, like two small mountains pressing against each other. He roared angrily, his voice carrying a hint of disbelief, like an enraged beast striking empty air, issuing a desperate roar in the deserted courtyard.

His roar echoed within the manor, startling the birds in the trees to take off in fright.

Li Yuanshun’s mind flashed, like a streak of lightning through his dull mind, suddenly shouting, "Go, find that old dog Changwei! Maybe he knows Shi Feiyang’s whereabouts. That old fool has been in close contact with Shi Feiyang, they must be colluding." A ruthless glint flashed in his eyes, convinced that Changwei was the key to solving the mystery, a glint as greedy and cruel as a hungry wolf eyeing its prey.

Li Yuannai also roared, "Hmph, Shi Feiyang may escape as a monk, but he can’t escape the temple. He must still be in this manor. We must drag him out, and tear him to pieces to avenge our fallen brothers!"

He waved his large knife, the blade shimmering cold in the sunlight, like his heart, icy and filled with murderous intent. The large knife swung with a whooshing wind.

At this moment, the "Flying Eagle Detective" Xie Wen reacted swiftly. His eyes were sharp, like an eagle’s eye in the night sky, quickly grasping the critical situation.

He knew well that if they fell into a fierce battle now, they would have no chance of winning.

Immediately, he grabbed Guo Xiangyu and Shi Xiong, his movements quick and powerful, like an eagle capturing its prey, with an undeniable decisiveness. His broad and powerful hands tightly grasped Guo Xiangyu’s and Shi Xiong’s arms, conveying a reassuring strength.

Then, he performed the "Feixu Qingyan Technique," and his figure instantly became as light as cotton, as if gently lifted by the breeze. With Guo Xiangyu and Shi Xiong, he soared into the sky.

His posture traced a graceful arc in the air, like a majestic eagle soaring high.

In the blink of an eye, they merged into the blue sky and white clouds, deftly avoiding the fierce battle about to erupt.

So, where exactly had Shi Feiyang gone? In truth, the moment Li Yuannai accused him of being Shi Feiyang, Shi Feiyang was already alerted. He knew he couldn’t remain there any longer and deftly escaped through the window.

At this point, the manor was already in chaos.

The shouts and footsteps of everyone were interwoven, like a pot of boiling water, the clamor deafening.

Shi Feiyang moved like lightning, darting quickly through the chaotic manor, his figure like a flash of white light. His target was only one—the hidden chamber of Mingjian Manor’s Manor Master, Dugu Yan.

He knew well that within that chamber lay the countless riches of Mingjian Manor, and that was his true reason for resting at the manor. He intended to "take from the source," seizing the resources of Mingjian Manor, who had always seen him as an enemy, so they would never dare to gather so many patrons or plot against him, Shi Feiyang, again.

At this moment, it was the perfect time for Shi Feiyang to carry out his plan. Dugu Chang and all the swordsmen were everywhere searching for his whereabouts, while he quietly took advantage of this rare gap to stealthily approach Dugu Yan’s secret chamber.

The chamber was located deep within the manor, surrounded by traps and mechanisms, utterly inaccessible to ordinary people.

But Shi Feiyang, skilled and bold, adeptly avoided each trap, utilizing his keen observation and masterful martial arts.

Every step he took was precise and light, like an agile lynx.

His footsteps were as light as a feather, almost making no sound. His eyes were focused and determined, vigilantly aware of the surrounding movements.

Finally, he reached the entrance to the chamber. There, two giant stone doors stood tightly closed, engraved with mysterious runes, emanating an aura of ancient majesty and mystery. The runes seemed to come from ancient times, exuding an awe-inspiring glow.

Shi Feiyang stood before the door, taking a deep breath, feeling the secrets and wealth hidden behind the stone door.

Shi Feiyang stood at the entrance of the chamber, the surrounding air seemingly held still by the weight of his presence.

He took a deep breath, his breath long and steady, drawing the spiritual qi of the heavens and earth into his body.
