Shi Feiyang observed the scene, his expression calm, as if everything was within his expectations.
He slightly lifted his head, his gaze sharp as lightning, sweeping over the kneeling mbers of the Naiman Tribe, and slowly began to speak: "Ye Ke’Er, today’s events were not my desire. But since you have already been defeated, I have one request. I want you to cede the position of the Naiman Tribe leader to my wife, Yili, that’s all." His voice was steady and powerful, resonating in the vast expanse like the deep toll of a bell.
Upon hearing these words, Ye Ke’Er was stunned, as if struck by five thunderbolts, secretly cursing Shi Feiyang’s ancestors: Damn Shi Feiyang, isn’t your demand high enough? You bastard, how could you deprive of my control over the Naiman Tribe.
He lifted his head and looked at Shi Feiyang, his eyes filled with pain and struggle.
The position of leader of the Naiman Tribe was his life’s glory and responsibility, and now he was to hand it over on a silver platter, how could he possibly be content.
However, for the sake of survival and to protect his son, Tietie Zhen, he eventually gritted his teeth and, with effort, pulled out the Military Token and the Wolf Soaring Map, symbolizing the tribe’s power, from his bosom. The Military Token and Wolf Soaring Map trembled slightly in his hands, carrying the blood, sweat, and mories of his entire life.
He sorrowfully handed them to Yili, his voice hoarse as he said: "Today, I lost fair and square. The position of leader of the Naiman Tribe now belongs to Madam Yili."
Imdiately, the Heroes of the Heroic Sakura Association and disciples who witnessed this erupted into joyful cheers.
They shouted loudly, their voices echoing through the sky: "Heroine Yili, mighty and valiant! Heroine Yili, mighty and valiant!"
The cheers surged like tumultuous waves, one after another, as if they were going to break through the sky.
Yili took the Military Token and Wolf Soaring Map, feeling their heavy weight in her hand.
Her eyes sparkled with excitent, tears instantly brimming over and rolling down her cheeks.
She never thought that as a female disciple of the Hengshan Sect, she would accomplish such achievents today, becoming the leader of the nearly three hundred thousand people of the Naiman Tribe. Her heart was filled with gratitude and joy, like a joyful bird, she flew into Shi Feiyang’s embrace, tears flowing like rain.
She tightly hugged Shi Feiyang, emanating a strong sense of love, deep and boundless.
Her body trembled slightly, speaking of her inner excitent and happiness.
Shi Feiyang gently embraced Yili, feeling her joy and excitent. He said softly, "Dear wife, this role, while granting you command over tens of thousands and giving you a stage for your talents, will bring challenges in governing that may cause you unease. Governance is not your strength. So, I will have Wanqing, Si ng, Bai Zhi, and Guihua accompany you for a while. They, either as trained elites from the Divine Water Palace or as forr Sub-Branch Leaders of the Heroic Sakura Association, have experience in managing regions and can surely help you govern this land well. But I also hope you can put aside your pride and unite with them, as only then can you lead the Naiman Tribe to prosperity."
His voice was gentle yet firm, like a spring breeze caressing the face, yet with an undeniable force.
Listening to Shi Feiyang’s words, Yili was overwheld with emotion.
She nodded repeatedly, her tears falling like broken beads, wetting Shi Feiyang’s shoulder.
She choked with emotion as she said: "Husband, I understand. Thank you for thinking of . I will not let you down. I will work together with the sisters to govern the Naiman Tribe well." At this ti, the sunlight shone on them, reflecting their happy silhouettes like a beautiful painting.
The usually proud Yili at this ti called upon her sisters, no longer seeing Lin Wanqing, Bai Zhi, Gong Sing, and Liu Guihua as rivals.
Shi Feiyang gently parted from Yili and held her hands softly yet firmly, and spoke with a gentle tone: "Dear wife, now with a significant responsibility on your shoulders, these three thousand disciples of the Heroic Sakura Association are yours to command. They will serve as your personal guards, sworn to protect your safety." With that, he summoned Liao Pei and Lie Quan.
Liao Pei and Lie Quan quickly stepped forward, kneeling on one knee, their expressions respectful.
Eyes fixed on them, Shi Feiyang spoke in a deep voice: "Liao Pei, Lie Quan, from today, these three thousand disciples are under Yili’s command, ensuring my wife’s safety without the slightest lapse, is that clear?"
Liao Pei and Lie Quan responded in unison: "We obey the Grand Squad Leader’s command!"
Their voices were loud, containing a certain resolute determination, as they went to arrange the respective affairs.
Subsequently, Shi Feiyang called out clearly: "Wanqing, Si ng, Bai Zhi, Guihua, co here."
The four ladies moved gracefully, beautifully, to stand before Shi Feiyang.
Shi Feiyang looked at them with warmth in his eyes, speaking slowly: "Ladies, since Yili is heading to the capital of the Naiman Tribe, Wulang City, I want you to accompany her, assisting in governing the tribe. With your wisdom and experience, you will surely aid her."
The four ladies, upon hearing this, nodded and agreed gently, though their eyes were full of reluctance to part with Shi Feiyang. Lin Wanqing softly opened her lips, saying: "Husband, we are willing to go, but our hearts are heavy with concern for you."
Gong Sing also chid in: "Yes, husband, we do not know when we shall et again..."
Shi Feiyang smiled and reassured them: "Don’t worry, ladies, I will take care of myself. Once everything here is settled, I will co to reunite with you."
Yili was filled with excitent, knowing that this was Shi Feiyang’s trust and expectation of her.
