Chapter 15 - Chapter 13: Blades and Shadows

The layout of the hall fully showcases the solemnity of Feiying Castle and the depth of its history.

The candlelight dances on the portraits, narrating the glorious deeds of successive Fortress Masters, invoking a sense of respect and yearning for this family's honor. Behind each portrait lies a legendary story, with every gaze shining with an unyielding brilliance. Feiying Castle is not just a tangible structure, but also a symbol of a legendary family, a testimony of history.

Shi Feiyang, with his extraordinary "Golden Eyes" vision, carefully observed the terrain and topography of Eagle's Beak Cliff from afar, meticulously examining the surrounding environment. After thorough observation and analysis, he conceived a clear action plan in his mind.

He knew that to infiltrate Snow Eagle Castle, the primary task was to resolve the situation with the over one hundred sentries on Eagle's Beak Cliff.

Given the precipitous terrain and tight defense of Eagle's Beak Cliff, a direct assault would inevitably lead to significant losses.

Therefore, Shi Feiyang decided to adopt a strategy of cunning rather than brute force.

He delved into studying the enemy's defense layout and terrain, formulating a comprehensive plan. Thus, Shi Feiyang instructed Liu Dayou, Liu Guihua, and several other companions to climb Eagle's Beak Cliff directly, creating chaos to distract the enemy's attention.

Meanwhile, Shi Feiyang used his exceptional "Thousand Miles Without a Trace" Lightweight Technique to silently glide up from the flank.

He moved like an agile cat, lightly traversing the cliff face, avoiding the enemy's sight, and successfully infiltrating Eagle's Beak Cliff.

During the infiltration, Shi Feiyang cleverly avoided the enemy's patrol routes, relying on his familiarity with the terrain and keen observation.

He utilized every hidden corner and shadow, moving silently like a ghost.

Every move Shi Feiyang made was meticulously calculated to ensure no sound was emitted, avoiding alerting the enemy. Through this clever stealth, he successfully evaded all sentries' eyes, silently approaching the core area of Snow Eagle Castle.

Shi Feiyang's intelligence and well-thought-out strategies stirred layers of ripples in Liu Guihua's heart.

Every deep glance or subtle gesture from Shi Feiyang tugged at the most sensitive string deep within Liu Guihua. Liu Guihua felt her heartbeat accelerate with each of Shi Feiyang's movements, irresistibly drawn by an invisible force. Each smile, each contemplation of Shi Feiyang, left Liu Guihua's heart surging, unable to calm for a long time.

At the perilous peak of Eagle's Beak Cliff, over a hundred sentries sat around the roaring furnace, enjoying the warmth, gathering to drink and make merry, fending off the cold. However, at this moment, they suddenly sensed someone climbing the cliff's steep rock face.

So, the sentries quickly reacted, picking up bows and firing a barrage of arrows at Liu Dayou, Liu Guihua, and the other companions.

Liu Dayou and Liu Guihua clung tightly to the hooked ropes, their bodies spinning in the air, skillfully dodging the arrows rain.

They used the surrounding trees and rocks as cover, deftly evading the enemy's attacks.

In this tense moment, Shi Feiyang seized the rare opportunity.

He leaped swiftly like an arrow leaving the bowstring, quickly drawing the Myanmar Saber from his waist, slashing down fiercely.

"Crack!" With several crisp sounds, several heads were sliced off.

A few bodies thudded to the ground, blood splattered all around, plunging the scene into chaos.

"There's an enemy attack!" The sentries cried out in panic, hastily grabbing their weapons and charging at Shi Feiyang.

Shi Feiyang gripped the Myanmar Saber tightly, exhibiting his superb "Hundred Victories Saber Technique," and utilizing the "Deep Concealment of Body and Name" Supreme Lightness Technique, he weaved through the enemy ranks like a ghost. Each slash he made was accompanied by an unstoppable saber aura, cutting down the foes before him one by one.

His saber technique was both swift and precise, each move perfectly executed, demonstrating both the brilliance of the "Hundred Victories Saber Technique" and his profound inner power cultivation. Everywhere Shi Feiyang swung his saber, the enemies fell.

His figure, illuminated by the firelight, appeared even more majestic and outstanding.

At this moment, Shi Feiyang's gaze was firm and cold, akin to a fierce tiger on the battlefield, rampaging amidst the bandits with his saber.

His eyes revealed a merciless resolve, as if declaring to all that he would not show any mercy on the battlefield. Hence, Shi Feiyang continuously executed the "Cangsong Welcoming Guest" and "Golden Dragon Coiling Claw" moves, his saber techniques becoming even fiercer, sweeping the entire battlefield like a storm. With each swing, enemy cries accompanied, and the enemy numbers gradually dwindled.

His actions were swift and precise, as if each slash was meticulously calculated to be a fatal blow.

In an instant, amidst the intertwining of saber light and sword shadows, all adversaries fell beneath Shi Feiyang's Myanmar Saber.

Shi Feiyang, akin to the Death God on the battlefield, unfeelingly reaped the enemies' lives.

And around him, the scene was one of corpses strewn all over, blood quickly freezing into ice under the assault of cold and snow.

The air was thick with the smell of blood, the cold wind mixed with wailing screams, making Eagle's Beak Cliff resemble a Human Purgatory.

Under the extreme weather conditions of raging wind and snow, the world fell into chaos, seemingly even time was swallowed by this fierce storm. If not for the sudden sounding of signal rockets or other warning signs echoing nearby, the bandits of Snow Eagle Castle would have been utterly unaware of any occurrence on Eagle's Beak Cliff.

They huddled in their crude wooden huts, attempting to escape the harsh weather, oblivious to the danger creeping silently up.

After silently slaying the sentries on Eagle's Beak Cliff, Shi Feiyang wielded his sharp weapon, exhibiting his outstanding "After finishing, wipe the clothes and leave" Lightness Technique, floating gracefully like a light snowflake.

His movements were light and swift, merging with the wind and snow, making his presence barely noticeable.

Shi Feiyang landed gently in front of Liu Dayou, quietly instructing, "Continue executing the plan we devised during our earlier assault on Eagle's Beak Cliff, find a way to divert the attention of the bandits on Snow Eagle Castle's periphery, so they remain unaware of our true intentions. We must use this snowstorm as cover to quietly complete our mission."

Shi Feiyang's gaze was determined and calm, exuding an undeniable confidence.

He believed Liu Dayou and his companions could complete this task, drawing the bandits' attention away, ensuring that they remain oblivious to the real threat stealthily approaching. Liu Dayou and the others must act like ghosts under the cover of the snowstorm, leaving no trace, thus ensuring the success of the mission.
