Those eyes were bright and captivating, shimring with a dazzling light, clearly reflecting Shi Feiyang’s figure within them, occupying her entire world.
Yili softly said, "Feiyang, in the past, it was my immaturity, always misunderstanding you, and even throwing tantrums at you. But today, in this bloody battle, I saw with my own eyes how you fearlessly charged in, fighting many with one, protecting everyone. Only now do I understand, you’ve always been that great hero who stands tall against the sky, soone I can depend on forever."
Her voice was gentle, with a touch of shyness, yet filled with sincere respect.
Shi Feiyang seed to sense sothing, turned slightly, and t Yili’s gaze in mid-air.
In that instant, ti seed to halt, the surrounding clamor faded away, and it felt as if only the reflections in each other’s eyes remained in the world.
Shi Feiyang’s lips curved into a warm and strong smile, like the warm sun of spring, instantly dispelling all the shadows in Yili’s heart, and seed like a silent promise, giving her endless reassurance.
He said, "Sister, don’t be afraid. In this tumultuous Jianghu, no matter what kind of difficulties or dangers we face, I, Shi Feiyang, will never retreat a single step. As long as I am here, I will never let you suffer any grievance, nor will I let anyone harm you."
His voice was low and firm, carrying an innate dominance, yet full of deep affection and care for Yili.
The mutual understanding and affection between the two flowed naturally in this affectionate gaze, no words were needed to comprehend each other.
Yili blushed slightly, her eyes full of shyness and sweetness.
Shi Feiyang raised his hand gently, holding Yili’s hand tenderly, those hands were broad and warm, conveying a reassuring strength.
Yili’s hand lightly curled up in Shi Feiyang’s palm, seemingly finding a ho.
They walked side by side towards the Huangguoshu Waterfall. The waterfall roared down with grandeur, like a hanging galaxy, the mighty water fiercely hitting the deep pool, splashing layers of white water, refracting colorful lights under the sunlight, dreamlike and surreal.
Shi Feiyang gently wrapped his arm around Yili’s waist, softly pulling her into his embrace.
Yili leaned on Shi Feiyang’s shoulder, her face glowing with a blissful blush.
At this mont, the heroes with great understanding quietly dispersed, pretending to admire the spectacular scenery of the Huangguoshu Waterfall.
So stopped to gaze at the waterfall, others strolled along the nearby paths, occasionally whispering a few words, intentionally leaving this beautiful space for Yili and Shi Feiyang.
A gentle breeze brushed by, stirring Yili’s hair, as she and Shi Feiyang stood quietly in front of the waterfall, imrsed in this rare tranquility and beauty, with all the world’s troubles unrelated to them.
That night, the moonlight was like clear lake water, softly and quietly spreading over the area around the Huangguoshu Waterfall.
The shimring moonlight covered the land with a silver veil, the waterfall’s splashing seed to glisten with fine light under the moon, dreamlike and surreal.
The heroes, dragging their slightly weary bodies from the day’s fierce battles, found a flat open space by the waterfall and skillfully set up tents.
Several bonfires were quickly lit, the blazing flas rising, dispelling the surrounding darkness, the flickering firelight illuminating faces that were either steadfast or calm, sketching a portrait of the Jianghu heroes.
The continuous roaring of the waterfall sounded like a majestic yet gentle natural lullaby, in this poetic and picturesque ambiance, the tense nerves of the group gradually relaxed, their body and soul weary, soon falling asleep in warmth and peace.
At midnight, the world seed utterly quiet, yet this tranquility was suddenly broken by a rush of hurried, chaotic footsteps.
A young disciple of the Heroic Sakura Association staggered as he ran, his face as pale as paper, extrely panicked, crawling and tumbling to where everyone rested, shouting with a trembling voice, "Grand Squad Leader, sothing terrible has happened!"
Shi Feiyang was startled awake by the shout, sitting up suddenly, his once sleepy eyes turning sharp as an eagle’s, gleaming with a penetrating light.
The disciple panted heavily and continued, "In the deep mountains southwest of Bozhou hides a ’Jade Phosphorus Cave,’ the rogues inside are downright insane! They’ve colluded with the Wokou, committing arson, murder, robbery everywhere, committing all sorts of evil deeds. What’s worse, they’re even providing money and food to the rebel army, boosting the strength of those treacherous rebels, the local people are suffering terribly, crying out in distress."
"Iron Palm" Wu Zhong, upon hearing this, stood up with a jolt, his eyebrows raised angrily, eyes wide open, fists clenched, knuckles cracking, shouting loudly, "These bastards are utterly outrageous! It’s one thing to plunder the Jianghu in usual tis, but now they’ve allied with the Wokou and are supporting the rebel army, they’re driving the people to their doom!"
"Divine Archer" Miao nlong also stood up abruptly, tightening the grip on his bow, his eyes full of anger and determination, gritting his teeth, he said, "Grand Squad Leader, we absolutely can’t let these scoundrels go! The people are suffering, and we, as Jianghu righteous heroes, must act, or what justice would there be?"
"Plum Blossom Dart" Shan Zhi frowned, his hand unconsciously reaching for the plum blossom darts around his waist, saying hatefully, "Hmph, they think they can do whatever they want hiding in the deep mountains? I must let them taste the power of my plum blossom darts and get justice for the people!"
"Iron Flute Scholar" Xiang Kun slowly stood up, holding the iron flute, gently stroking it, with a serious expression said, "Such wicked acts are outrageous. This ’Jade Phosphorus Cave’ probably hides all sorts of sinister things, but we are not to be trifled with, we will surely uproot them."
