King of Hundred Victories Saber-Chapter 523 - 182: Nightstorm: Children Abducted and the Mysterious Mark (Part 3)
The group quickly took action and unlocked the shackles on the common people, rescuing them one by one.
Subsequently, a storeroom filled with a mountain of money and grain was found in a secret chamber deep within the cave.
All of these were plundered from the people by the bandits of the "Jade Phosphorus Cave."
Shi Feiyang immediately ordered that part of the money and grain be distributed to the rescued people. The villagers received the life-saving money and grain with trembling hands, eyes full of gratitude, knelt down to thank him, tears streaming down their faces, and shouted out for their benefactor.
After handling these affairs, Shi Feiyang thought of the immense divine power of the fairies, Lark and Bi Yan’Er, from the Divine Dragon Pagoda, whose space was extraordinary and could hold all things, and he went to invite them. Upon hearing the reason, the two fairies gladly agreed.
With the assistance of their mana, the remaining vast wealth was smoothly moved into the Divine Dragon Pagoda.
Once everything was arranged, Shi Feiyang exited the "Jade Phosphorus Cave" and joined the waiting heroes outside. Together, they descended the mountain path, returning to Flying Tiger Pass. On the way down, Yili was full of joy, like a merry little fish. She tightly held Shi Feiyang’s hand, unwilling to let go for even a moment, her hands soft and warm, conveying the joy and love from the depths of her heart.
Bright lights sparkled in her eyes, like the most dazzling stars in the night sky, while a sweet smile always played on her lips, chattering endlessly. "Feiyang, the way you fought the enemy today was so magnificent! That knife technique of yours was fierce and powerful; watching from the side, I felt you were the bravest hero in the world."
As Yili spoke, her cheeks blushed slightly, her gaze filled with admiration and affection.
Shi Feiyang turned his head to look at Yili, his eyes full of doting affection, gently squeezed her hand, and replied with a smile, "To protect the people and ensure you come to no harm, I must give my all."
His voice was deep and resolute, like the steady chime of a mountain bell, bringing great comfort to Yili.
Walking ahead, the heroes tacitly picked up their pace with a knowing understanding.
"Iron Palm" Wu Zhong walked quickly while deliberately speaking loudly, "Let’s all move faster; there’s a long way ahead!"
"Divine Archer" Miao Menlong echoed, "Yes, yes, let’s not delay the journey!"
Everyone exchanged smiles, hastening their steps, leaving a long stretch of mountain road behind for Yili and Shi Feiyang.
Yili felt the goodwill of the group, her face flushed with happiness.
She leaned slightly closer to Shi Feiyang, her faint fragrance lingering around him.
The breeze gently brushed through her hair, a few strands softly sweeping across Shi Feiyang’s cheek, tickling but with a different kind of tenderness.
Shi Feiyang took her hand even tighter and wrapped his other arm gently around her waist.
Yili looked up slightly, gazing at Shi Feiyang’s profile, the sunshine outlining his strong features in perfect contour.
She couldn’t help but say, "Feiyang, being able to go through all this with you, I truly feel so happy. No matter what comes in the future, we must always be together."
Shi Feiyang looked down at Yili, nodding seriously, his eyes firm and filled with deep emotion: "Rest assured, I will never fail you in this lifetime."
The two of them continued to walk hand in hand along the mountain path. Wildflowers bloomed freely in a riot of color, bestowing their most beautiful blessings upon their love.
Birds sang cheerfully on the branches, seemingly celebrating their sweetness.
Occasionally, Shi Feiyang would pause to pick a beautifully blooming wildflower for Yili, gently placing it in her hair, saying with a smile, "My Yi Family sister is more beautiful than this flower."
Yili would then bashfully lower her head, gently punching Shi Feiyang’s chest, coquettishly saying, "You’re just good at flattering me."
Their laughter and joy echoed through the mountains, adding a touch of romance and warmth to the mountain path.
After a long journey, Shi Feiyang and his party finally returned to Flying Tiger Pass.
It was early summer; the sky over Bozhou was as blue as gemstones, the scorching sun pouring down without reservation, blanketing the earth with a layer of golden gauze. The gentle breeze was weak in dispelling the pervasive heat, and the roadside plants drooped languidly in the heat.
Flying Tiger Pass lay dormant like a colossal beast nestled between the towering ridges.
The peaks on either side soared into the clouds, their sheer cliffs like nature’s cleaved chasm with a giant axe.
The walls of the pass were erected from massive stone blocks, solid and sturdy, covered with the mottled marks of time.
The gates were tightly closed, emanating a sense of majesty and solemnity, silently telling of countless storms and battles it had withstood.
As Shi Feiyang and his companions appeared before the pass, the heavy gates slowly opened with a deep sound.
Shi Feiyang’s three wives, Gong Simeng, Qi Meizhen, and Bai Zhi, each with a pregnant belly, walked out full of smiles.
Their faces glowed with happiness and anticipation; seeing Shi Feiyang, joy sparkled even more in their eyes.
Gong Simeng gently caressed her belly, softly saying, "Feiyang, you’re finally back."
Qi Meizhen also chimed in with a smile, "It must have been a hard journey."
Bai Zhi merely stood quietly by, smiling at Shi Feiyang, her eyes full of affection.
Shi Feiyang hurriedly stepped forward, his eyes filled with care and love, gently holding the hands of each wife in turn, tenderly inquiring about their well-being. Then, everyone headed towards the mansion together to have lunch.
The dining room was warm and elegantly arranged. A spacious round table was filled with sumptuous dishes, full of color, aroma, and taste, with steaming heat adding a touch of liveliness to the space.
