King of Hundred Victories Saber

Chapter 372 - 152: Lin Wanqing Slays the Three Fiends, Shi Feiyang Cleaves the Snake King (Part 3)

Xie Wen snorted coldly after hearing, indignantly proposing to eliminate the Black Tortoise Hall.

Upon hearing Xie Wen’s words, Li Chenfeng’s eyes instantly lit up, with a hint of excitement and anticipation, like dazzling stars suddenly blooming in the night sky.

He suddenly raised his head, leaned forward, and responded eagerly and firmly, "Brother Xie’s words are absolutely correct! I’ll go investigate the whereabouts of the Black Tortoise Hall immediately. No matter where they are hiding, even if it’s a dragon’s lair or a tiger’s den, I will bring back the news. Our Heroic Sakura Association is renowned in the Jianghu; how can we be afraid of these villains!"

At this moment, the cold and damp aura in the deep pit became more intense, the moss on the walls glimmered with eerie light in the dimness, and the dripping sound of water drops echoed like a countdown, adding a sense of tension to the oppressive atmosphere.

Lin Wanqing suggested devising a meticulous plan.

Li Chenfeng nodded vigorously, the motion of his nod firm and determined, as if to express his resolve with this force.

His gaze was filled with approval, like a devout believer looking up to the deity in their heart, saying, "Elder Lin has considered everything thoroughly, as we walk the Jianghu, licking blood off the blade, we must not fight unprepared battles. I will arrange personnel immediately: on one hand, to strictly guard the branch, ensuring its safety as if protecting life; on the other hand, to closely monitor the message transmissions of other branches, like a hawk eyeing its prey, ensuring no error spoils the big picture."

The stench in the pit grew stronger amidst their conversation, yet Li Chenfeng seemed oblivious, fully immersed in the planning and execution of strategies. Shi Feiyang nodded slightly, with a gentle smile, took out three gold leaves and several silver ingots from the deerskin pouch at his waist, barely noticeable to the layperson. He handed these treasures to Liu Dayou, his eyes full of trust and anticipation, instructing, "Brother Liu, tomorrow, continue pretending to escort the convoy. Those bandits greedy for money will surely appear; we shall use this opportunity to draw out the Black Tortoise Hall’s villains and eliminate them thoroughly, restoring peace to the Jianghu."

As Shi Feiyang spoke, he exuded an undeniable aura of authority, like a king who could dominate the fate of the Jianghu, swearing to sweep away all injustices in the world.

With the decision made, Li Chenfeng immediately straightened his back, like a resolute pine tree, loudly pledging, "Grand Squad Leader is wise! I will handle it promptly, ensuring everything is done flawlessly. If there is any mistake, I’m willing to accept punishment, for I will not betray the trust of the Grand Squad Leader!"

He stood up, with a stature firm as pine, eyes shining with undying spirit and determination, like a warrior about to step onto the battlefield, unafraid of any difficulties or dangers.

When Liu Dayou heard Shi Feiyang inviting him back to the Heroic Sakura Association, his inner emotions surged like a flood breaking through a dam.

His legs went weak, and he fell to the ground with a thud, tears bursting forth, crying aloud.

Li Chenfeng witnessed this scene from the side, showing a comforting smile, warm and sincere.

He stepped forward, gently patted Liu Dayou’s shoulder, and said, "Brother Liu, from now on, we are family again. With such a wise and heroic leader like the Grand Squad Leader, the Heroic Sakura Association will surely thrive and prosper!"

At this moment, the atmosphere in the pit was slightly eased by this warm scene, and the oppressive tension somewhat diminished.

Liu Guihua, seeing Shi Feiyang’s arrangements, had a glimmer of hope in her eyes. Her gaze was filled with urgency, tears welling up as she rushed towards Shi Feiyang, nearly stumbling in her haste.

In her heart, she urgently longed to reconcile with Shi Feiyang, her mind constantly replaying the beautiful moments spent with Shi Feiyang, fantasizing about returning to the past. However, Shi Feiyang’s expression remained calm, with a hint of firm resolve in his eyes.

He had made up his mind, cutting decisively when needed, and suddenly turned away, his movements decisive and swift, without the slightest hesitation. He reached out to embrace Lin Wanqing and walked steadily and quickly away from the simple wooden house.

Inside the wooden house, Liu Guihua stood still, watching Shi Feiyang’s figure gradually recede, tears flowing uncontrollably.

Her heart was filled with endless regret, lamenting leaving Shi Feiyang when he was seriously ill. Now she could only helplessly witness Shi Feiyang leave, embraced with someone else, overwhelmed by waves of sorrow and pain.

Shi Feiyang, with Lin Wanqing in his arms, stepped into the courtyard. The air was filled with the fresh scent of moist earth, the moonlight filtering through the treetops, forming a mottled shadow. Shi Feiyang walked lightly, his movements as graceful as a dancing butterfly, embracing Lin Wanqing as they leapt lightly, flying out of the pit.

Next, he employed the "Supreme Lightness Technique" of swift movement, darting like lightning through the night, carrying Lin Wanqing towards the Eagle Beak Rock.

Lin Wanqing, suddenly held tightly in Shi Feiyang’s arms, felt her strength instantly drain away, leaning powerlessly against Shi Feiyang’s chest.

Her cheeks flushed, like the rosy clouds of the evening sky, feeling both nervous and joyful, as if in a dream, unable to believe she was lying in Shi Feiyang’s broad embrace.

After Shi Feiyang took Lin Wanqing away, Li Chenfeng stared at the direction of their disappearance, his gaze firm and persistent.

The dim light in the pit shone on his face, outlining his resolute features. He secretly vowed in his heart to fully assist the Grand Squad Leader in eliminating the Black Tortoise Hall, defending the dignity and honor of the Heroic Sakura Association, even if it meant giving up everything.
