Chapter 503: Chapter 178: Sudden Upheaval: Shi Feiyang Saves Shi Ying and Reshapes the Jianghu, Part 4

Saying this, Shi Ying took a deep breath, her gaze sweeping over the crowd, her voice choked with emotion: "I have always been true to the ancestors of the Celestial Demon Sect, true to every follower who has followed me. Now, just because of one lost bloody battle, you pin this unwarranted crime on me. Is it really I who betrayed the Celestial Demon Sect, or have you always coveted the position of leader and seized this chance to attack?"

As soon as Shi Ying finished speaking, she quickly turned to look at Wu Yun, her eyes filled with disappointment and anger: "Wu Yun, and you? Always stirring trouble, forming cliques, pulling off petty moves within the sect. Today you join forces with Shi Fengxia in an evil alliance—where do you plan to leave the future of this sect? I, Shi Ying, am sincerely devoted to this sect, and I will not allow you treacherous people to succeed!"

However, Shi Fengxia and Wu Yun did not heed her explanation, the two exchanged a glance and showed sinister smiles.

Wu Yun snorted coldly and replied: "Hmph, still trying to talk tough! The evidence is conclusive, yet you still try to deny it? Today will be the day you die!"

With that, both of them drew their swords, their blades gleaming with cold light, reflecting their twisted and ugly faces.

Shi Fengxia used "Celestial Star Poison Palm," a bizarre dark green glow emerged from his palm, the air permeated with a pungent stench, clearly indicating that his palm force contained a deadly poison. His figure flashed like a black lightning, lunging at Shi Ying, shouting: "Shi Ying, just surrender and accept your fate, the position of sect leader will be mine today!"

Wu Yun meanwhile deployed the "Celestial Star Swordsmanship," the sword flowers glimmering, sword momentum fierce, attacking Shi Ying from another direction, chanting: "Today, we shall eliminate you, the traitor, clearing the harm from our Celestial Demon Sect!"

Shi Ying was filled with panic and helplessness, knowing full well she was in a desperate situation.

But as the sect leader, she was far from resigning herself to death. She swiftly drew the soft sword from her waist, letting out a delicate shout, meeting their attack.

In her hands, the soft sword danced like a nimble snake, gleaming with cold light, contending with Shi Fengxia’s poison palm and Wu Yun’s swordsmanship.

Shi Ying defended while furiously shouting: "Shi Fengxia, Wu Yun, you treacherous, ambitious wolves! To seize the position of sect leader, you use such despicable methods! Do you think you’re worthy of the deceased former sect leader?"

Shi Fengxia heard this and only laughed coldly: "Hmph, the former sect leader is dead, now in this Jianghu, the strong rule! This position should naturally be mine!" Wu Yun agreed: "Indeed, how can a little woman like you lead our Celestial Demon Sect? Today, we will replace you!"

Zhong Renwang, Ding Hong, Wu Siqun, and Li Xiaoli stood by, sinister smiles on their faces, continuously inciting the Celestial Demon Sect disciples to betray.

Zhong Renwang shouted loudly: "Brothers, Shi Ying has betrayed the sect, her sins are unforgivable! Now, Elder Shi and Elder Wu are the ones who can lead us to glory; let’s rally behind Elder Shi as sect leader and Elder Wu as vice sect leader! If we succeed in killing Shi Ying, we will select ten elders among you to enjoy wealth and luxury!"

Swayed by their instigation, some of the less resolute disciples of Celestial Demon Sect quickly shifted sides, launching attacks on Shi Ying’s loyal guards.

In an instant, the cave was filled with flashing weapons, shouts and screams intertwining.

Shi Ying’s loyal guards were few in number, quickly falling into a desperate situation amidst the sudden betrayal and assault.

They fought desperately but struggled to withstand the surrounding assault, falling one by one into pools of blood, the blood collecting on the ground, flowing slowly along the terrain of the cave, resembling a winding river of blood.

Shi Ying was increasingly overwhelmed under the dual attacks of Shi Fengxia and Wu Yun.

Her clothes were torn, her body suffering multiple injuries, her blood staining her garments.

Yet she gritted her teeth stubbornly, her eyes flickering with a glow of defiance.

However, with her loyal guards continually falling, her situation grew increasingly dire, her life hanging by a thread, each defense seemed so arduous, each move seemed to exhaust all her strength, reaching a critical moment of life and death.

The atmosphere around Thunder God Rock in the late spring grew heavier and oppressive.

Inside the main cave of the Celestial Demon Sect, the tension was palpable, Shi Ying was isolated and helpless, her life dangling by a thread.

Just at this crucial moment, a figure like lightning pierced the darkness at the cave’s entrance, swiftly flying in—it was Shi Feiyang. His posture was upright, his spirit extraordinary, emanating an aura of righteousness that put hearts at ease, as if a beam of light instantly illuminating the dark and eerie cave.

Shi Feiyang landed stably, his gaze sharp as torches, surveying the scene, then roared in a booming voice: "Master Shi dedicates wholeheartedly to Martial Arts, preserving fairness and justice in Jianghu, protecting the peace of the people. You vile creatures dare to slander the loyal here, today the Heroic Sakura Association will cleanse this sect of its impurity!" His voice reverberated like thunder through the cave, deafening the ears of those present, showcasing an indisputable resolve.

Though Shi Ying had fallen into despair, filled with sorrow, upon hearing this familiar voice her eyes suddenly widened, emitting a glow of surprise and excitement, her once dim eyes were instantly lit.

Her lips trembled slightly, seemingly wanting to say something, but the emotions were too overwhelming for her to speak immediately, tears welled up in her eyes, brimming with the joy of survival and deep gratitude for Shi Feiyang’s arrival.

After speaking, the aura around Shi Feiyang erupted suddenly, like a volcano about to explode, an overwhelming power almost breaking free of the cave’s confines.
