Wuxia: Become the 100-Victory Sword King at the Beginning

Chapter 132: Xiong Ying will plot to protect Shuang Rui and lay a trap

Shi Feiyang sat alone in the tent, surrounded by silence. Only the faint light coming in from the door curtain was like a gentle carving knife, carefully outlining the light and dark contours on his face, clearly reflecting his tightly furrowed brows and the solemnity in his eyes.

His eyes were deep and complex, as if hiding endless thoughts, like a bottomless pool.

Outside the tent, the strong wind in the valley was like a group of ferocious beasts, howling wildly and beating the tent cloth madly, making a loud "crackling" sound. The sound was deafening, as if it would tear the small tent apart in an instant.

His fingers subconsciously tapped lightly on the table, making a rhythmic "tapping" sound that intertwined with the howling of the wind, creating an increasingly depressing and dull atmosphere in this small and cramped space, as if the air had solidified.

His eyes seemed to be attracted by a magnet, fixed on the flames that flickered in the breeze.

For a moment, Liu Tingting's cunning and sinister face, and the cold and questioning looks when everyone misunderstood him, kept circling in his mind like a kaleidoscope.

After a long moment, Shi Feiyang sighed deeply, a sigh that seemed to condense all the frustration and sorrow in the world, as if to completely release the repression in his heart. Then, he placed his hands firmly on his knees and slowly stood up. Every movement was filled with fatigue and determination. With heavy but firm steps, he walked out of the tent step by step.

It was evening at this moment, and the afterglow of the setting sun was like a layer of extremely gorgeous gauze, with strands of tenderness, gently spreading on the foothills of Hengshan Mountain, dyeing the land into an intoxicating orange-red.

The rolling hills are like a giant dragon sleeping leisurely, lying quietly between heaven and earth, dressed in a dazzling golden robe, shining brightly in the afterglow.

The snow on the top of the mountain is like a bright pearl inlaid on the edge of the sky, sparkling with fine and dazzling light, eye-catching and charming.

Looking up into the distance, the sky seems to have had its palette knocked over by a naughty child. The few remaining clouds are dyed a warm and unrestrained fiery red by the setting sun. They stretch their bodies freely, intertwining and entwining with each other, like agile dancers, performing a beautiful dance in the vast sky.

However, this dreamlike, breathtakingly beautiful scenery seemed like an illusory bubble to Shi Feiyang, unable to arouse his interest in the slightest. His mind had long been completely occupied by Liu Tingting's endless plots and everyone's deep misunderstandings.

Unconsciously, he slowly walked towards the direction where Liu Tingting left.

At this moment, an idea flashed through Shi Feiyang's mind, and a response plan flashed through his mind like lightning.

He secretly calculated in his heart that the contest between him and Liu Tingting that was secretly planned had just begun.

He is well aware that he shoulders the trust and expectations of everyone in the Xiongying Society, and he must use wisdom and courage to lead everyone out of the predicament in this dangerous game.

Shi Feiyang stood outside the tent like a towering and resolute mountain.

He tilted his head slightly and squinted his eyes. The warm glow of the sunset was like a soft veil, pouring down on his face, giving his well-defined and hard-lined face a layer of light gold, adding a bit of majesty.

The mountain breeze, carrying a hint of coolness, whistled across his cheeks like a sharp blade, ruffling his hair wantonly, but this wind was like a weak air current that could not calm the turbulent waves on the lake, and it was difficult to calm the waves surging deep in his heart.

Shi Feiyang took a deep breath, and the fresh scent of pine and moist earth instantly penetrated his lungs, bringing a little comfort to his chaotic and troubled mind.

He walked slowly, his hands behind his back, his posture erect, his steps steady and powerful. The dead branches and leaves beneath his feet, unable to bear the weight, made a soft crunching sound, a sound like a forgotten ballad in the long river of time, humming the vicissitudes of time.

Not far away, a majestic waterfall rushed down from the cliff, like a giant silver dragon that broke free from its confinement and regained its freedom. It was wrapped in tremendous force and made a deafening roar. The sound seemed to be announcing its existence and majesty to all living things in the world.

The splashing white water, gently refracted by the sunlight, is like a group of lively and dreamy elves, dancing gracefully, transforming into dreamy and looming rainbows, adding a touch of ethereal and charming brilliant colors to this majestic and magnificent landscape painting.

Below the waterfall, there is a deep pool of clear water. The surface of the water is stirred up by ripples, sparkling and flashing with charming light. It is beautiful beyond words, like a piece of brilliant jade carefully carved and inlaid on the earth.

After a moment's deliberation, Shi Feiyang turned abruptly, his movements clean and sharp, without a trace of hesitation. He raised his arm, which was like a solid stone pillar, and waved it vigorously towards the distance, shouting, "Everyone come here!"

The sound was loud and powerful, like the ringing of a huge bell, echoing in the valley for a long time.

In an instant, several birds perched on the branches were startled. They flapped their wings, chirped in panic, and flew away in a hurry, as if they were frightened by the sudden and majestic sound.

When everyone in the Xiongying Club heard this shout, they all immediately put down what they were doing, and quickly gathered towards Shi Feiyang with awe and trust in their eyes. This was enough to demonstrate Shi Feiyang's absolute and unshakable prestige in the Xiongying Club.

Gong Simeng, Lin Wanqing, "Iron Palm" Wu Zhong, "Double-edged Blade" Xiao Lingling, "Flying Eagle Detective" Xie Wen, "Iron Flute Scholar" Xiang Kun, "Round Barrel" Lu De De, "Bamboo Pole" Jiang Huotian, "Archer" Miao Menlong, "Plum Blossom Dart" Shan Zhi and others heard Shi Feiyang's powerful shout, and they all quickly gathered towards the source of the sound like well-trained soldiers.

At this moment, the mountain breeze is like a group of naughty elves, happily shuttling and playing in the dense forest, making the leaves rustle. The sound is like a grand and exciting symphony, playing a natural movement full of vitality.

The reeds by the stream swayed gently in the wind like a flock of whispering girls, their whispers whispering some unknown, mysterious secret. An eagle circled freely in the high sky, emitting a sharp and long cry, which pierced the silent air and added a touch of heroic and unrestrained grandeur to the world.

Everyone quickly gathered around Shi Feiyang, each with a different look on their face.

Some of them looked anxious, rubbing their hands together constantly, with fine beads of sweat already oozing out of their palms. They tried to relieve the tension surging like a tide in their hearts through this mechanical movement.

Some of them looked serious, with their hands folded across their chests, their brows furrowed, their expressions solemn and their eyes deep, obviously concentrating on thinking about the severe challenges they were about to face.

Shi Feiyang lowered his voice, which was steady and firm, as if it contained endless power. As he spoke, he gestured carefully on the ground with his fingers, elaborating on his plan of turning the tables.

His eyes were focused and wise, like the brightest stars in the night sky. Every movement and every word he said revealed his strong confidence, and everything was under his control.

From time to time, everyone nodded in agreement, their heads moving up and down quickly like chicks pecking at rice, and from time to time, they whispered to each other and discussed. Their discussions were intertwined with the sound of wind, waterfalls, and birdsong, playing a tense yet hopeful melody that echoed in the mountains and forests.

Gong Simeng listened to Shi Feiyang's plan, and the heavy burden on her heart finally fell to the ground. She couldn't help but let out a long sigh, patted her chest gently with one hand, and said with emotion: "Husband, I thought you were bewitched by Liu Tingting's enchanting beauty again. It turns out you already knew she had evil intentions? Haha, that's great!"

As soon as she said this, she realized that she had let the cat out of the bag. Her pretty face immediately turned red, like a ripe apple, so red that blood almost dripped out. She covered her cheeks with her hands in panic, her eyes full of embarrassment and confusion, like a frightened deer, at a loss.

Everyone was stunned at first, and then burst into laughter.

"Iron Palm" Wu Zhong laughed so hard that he fell backwards, holding his stomach tightly with both hands. His body was shaking violently and he almost couldn't straighten his back. His hearty laughter echoed in the valley for a long time, startling the surrounding leaves and making them fall down, as if they were also infected by his joy.

"Round Barrel" Lu Dede laughed so hard that his face turned red. He patted his round belly hard and gasped for breath. His laughter, mixed with the sound of gurgling water in the stream not far away, seemed particularly cheerful and loud, as if to fill the whole valley with a joyful atmosphere.

Gong Simeng felt even more embarrassed. She glared at the people who were laughing happily, stomped her feet, turned around and ran away in a panic, her steps hurried as if there was a terrible monster chasing her.

After leaving the crowd, Gong Simeng went straight to Suzaku. Suzaku seemed to sense her emotions and rubbed her shoulder affectionately with his head, his movements gentle and warm, as if silently comforting her.

Gong Simeng gently stroked the Suzaku's gorgeous feathers. The feathers were smooth and delicate, with a charming luster, just like the finest silk.

She flipped over and jumped onto its back, legs firmly clamped together, one hand tightly grasping Suzaku's feathers, and whispered, "Let's go and find out the whereabouts of that damn Liu Tingting."

The Vermilion Bird let out a long cry, its voice loud and high-pitched, just like an exciting horn. It spread its wings vigorously, bringing up a strong gust of wind, and flew "whoosh" into the air. Its momentum seemed to break through the clouds and soar into the ninth heaven.

Gong Simeng sat on the back of Suzaku, her hair flying wildly in the wind, like a piece of lively black silk, floating freely in the air.

She narrowed her eyes, her gaze as sharp as a torch, searching back and forth in the vast mountains and forests below.

At this time, a few white cotton-like clouds floated slowly in the sky. Under the gentle sunshine, they were as cute as fluffy marshmallows, floating slowly, forming a wonderful and sharp contrast with her eager investigation.

In the distance, wisps of smoke rise from several houses at the foot of the mountain, adding a touch of warm fireworks to this quiet mountain forest, as if telling the beauty and tranquility of ordinary life.

At the same time, "Flying Eagle Detective" Xie Wen also displayed the Feixu Qingyan skill, and the whole person floated in the air like a wisp of misty smoke.

His figure was light and agile, and his toes tapped the branches lightly, making a slight "rustling" sound. The branches swayed slightly under his touch, but it was almost imperceptible. He had merged with nature and become a part of the forest.

He moved quickly through the dense mountain forests like an agile monkey, jumping and moving lightly among the branches with smooth and natural movements.

As he flew, he turned his head flexibly, his eyes sharp as a torch, not missing any hidden corner, carefully searching for Liu Tingting's whereabouts.

The surrounding leaves rustled in the wind, occasionally a few crisp birdsong could be heard, and a squirrel jumped happily among the branches, knocking down a few pine cones that fell to the ground with a "dong dong" sound. These sounds intertwined together and became the unique background sound of his actions, adding a bit of mystery and tension to his exploration journey.

His lightness skills were extremely magical. Every step he took was perfect, and every leap he made was as smooth as flowing clouds and water. It was as if he was an elf in the mountains and forests, and was born to belong to this world.

At this moment, Liu Tingting was hiding stealthily in the depths of the forest.

She crouched down, her steps slow and cautious, like a wild cat waiting for an opportunity.

With every step he took, he had to look around vigilantly, his eyes darting around, not missing any slightest movement.

She was well aware of the powerful strength of the Vermillion Bird and the White Tiger. They were the treasures she had always dreamed of. Once she obtained them, her status in the Shadow Alliance would be unmatched. If she could ascend to heaven in the future, she would also be a powerful immortal in the fairy world.

There was a greedy glint in her eyes, and her mind was constantly thinking about how to get close to the two auspicious beasts.

Sometimes she hid behind the thick trunk of a large tree, pressing her body tightly against it, only her eyes showing, as she furtively observed the movements around her. Sometimes she tiptoed through the bushes, branches scraping against her clothes, making subtle noises, but it did not affect her pace in the slightest. She tried her best to bypass Shi Feiyang and the others' defenses and approach Zhuque and Baihu, secretly plotting various strategies in her mind.

This cunning fox waits for the best opportunity in the dark.

"Iron Flute Scholar" Xiang Kun, "Archer" Miao Menlong and other heroes also set out in twos and threes. They pretended to be tourists sightseeing and strolled leisurely in the mountains, chatting and laughing.

"Iron Flute Scholar" Xiang Kun held an iron flute, which had a cold and hard metallic luster.

He tapped his palms lightly, making a crisp and pleasant "thump-thump" sound. The sound of his footsteps and the subtle friction of fallen leaves on the ground formed a unique rhythm, appearing leisurely and comfortable, as if he was really just enjoying the good time in the mountains and forests.

The "archer" Miao Menlong carried a bow and arrow on his back. The bow was well-made, with a taut bowstring, exuding a deterrent power that seemed to be able to shoot a fatal arrow at any time.

He put his hands behind his back leisurely, looking relaxed and casual, but his eyes revealed vigilance and concentration. Like a sharp cheetah, he always paid attention to the slightest movement around him, not missing any abnormality, trying to find any clues about Liu Tingting.

The sounds of wind and insects in the distance are all keenly perceived by them, and any subtle sound may be a key clue in their ears.

Shi Feiyang remained where he was, his arms folded across his chest, his broad chest seemingly able to bear any pressure. His brow furrowed slightly, a few shallow furrows appearing on his forehead. He continued to concentrate on perfecting the details of his plan, preparing for the upcoming severe challenge. All the natural sounds around him seemed to be silently gathering strength for the coming confrontation. Every bird song, every gust of wind, seemed like a note in the symphony of fate. For several days, there was no trace of Liu Tingting.

However, Liu Tingting must go out with her immortal cultivators every night.

During the day, Liu Tingting would return to the valley and be with the heroes of the Xiongying Club. Moreover, she would take good care of the White Tiger and the Vermillion Bird every day, trying to win their trust completely with the little intimacy she had built up in the past few days.

At this time, Liu Tingting gently stroked the white tiger's fur.

The fur was as smooth as brocade. Liu Tingting's eyes were filled with feigned kindness, and she whispered softly from time to time, "You, follow me, and you will surely enjoy endless benefits in the future. When I control your power and become a powerful figure in the fairy world, you will also follow me and share in the glory. I want all the immortals in the fairy world to know my name, and establish my own supreme power in this vast world."

Zhuque tilted his head, looking at her with a half-comprehending look, his eyes gleaming with intelligence. Zhuque and Baihu had originally disliked Liu Tingting, but since their master, Shi Feiyang, hadn't done anything to her, they also showed friendliness towards her.

Late that night, Tianlong Mountain was tightly wrapped in thick darkness, as if it was in a huge black abyss. Everything was silent, only the biting mountain wind was rushing through the woods, making sounds like ghosts howling and wolves howling. The sound was shrill and terrifying, making the gloomy and strange feeling of the forest even stronger.

The moonlight struggled to penetrate the thick, inky clouds, casting a few faint and flickering rays of light, outlining the mottled shadows of trees on the ground. The shadows were hazy, as if countless unknown dangers were lurking, and every shadow might hide a fatal crisis.

Dressed in a black nightgown, Liu Tingting moved silently through the forest like a swift flash of black lightning. Her steps were as light as a nimble cat, each step treading on the fallen branches and leaves without making a single sound, as if she had become one with the forest.

Her face was covered with a black veil, revealing only a pair of bright and cunning eyes, which flashed a vigilant cold light in the darkness. Her eyes were like the cold stars twinkling in the night sky, revealing shrewdness and calculation.

Soon, she came to a hidden valley.

In the valley, a group of men in dark blue suits had been waiting for a long time. Their clothing was embroidered with black bat patterns, which looked particularly ferocious in the hazy and eerie moonlight, as if the bats would flap their wings and take flight at any moment, bringing endless fear. These men were members of the Shadow Alliance. Their postures stood tall like pine trees, their expressions cold as frost, and they exuded a chilling, murderous aura, like messengers from hell, shrouding everything in darkness.

Liu Tingting glanced at the group and nodded gently, her gesture graceful yet tinged with a hint of pride. Then she quickly walked towards the man at the head. He was tall and burly, like a towering mountain. His face was stern and rigid, like a piece of cold stone. His eyes revealed an innate, unquestionable majesty, as if he were the master of this dark world.

He is the deputy leader of the Shadow Alliance, Dark Night Owl.

"Liu Tingting, you're not here early." The voice of the Night Owl was low and hoarse, like the friction of sandpaper. It was particularly harsh in this almost silent valley, startling the branches and leaves from rustling, and even the surrounding air seemed to tremble slightly at the sound.

He folded his hands over his chest, raised his head slightly, and looked down at Liu Tingting, his eyes as if he was examining a subordinate who had made a mistake.

Liu Tingting's heart skipped a beat, but she smiled gently. Her laughter echoed in the night sky, with a bit of charm and a hint of unruly, as if declaring her confidence to the Dark Night Owl.

She subconsciously smoothed the wind-twisted hair around her ears, thinking to herself, "This Dark Night Owl is still so formidable. I have to be careful. I must prove myself in front of him and not let him underestimate me. When I obtain the White Tiger and the Vermillion Bird and become a powerful figure in the immortal world, he will bow down to me." Then she said, "Deputy Alliance Leader, you know that Shi Feiyang and his gang are keeping a close eye on me. It wasn't easy for me to escape. However, I haven't neglected a single thing. My goal has never changed: to leverage the power of the White Tiger and the Vermillion Bird to become a powerful and influential immortal in the immortal world. When that happens, our Shadow Alliance will be unmatched in the immortal world."

At this moment, a mountain breeze blew past, making the surrounding dead branches creak, as if beating a strange rhythm for her words, or cheering for her ambition.

As she spoke, she spread her hands and looked helpless, but there was a determination glint in her eyes.

Dark Night Owl frowned slightly, and that frown seemed to be able to pinch a fly to death. He took a step forward. Under the moonlight, his figure enveloped Liu Tingting, like a mountain pressing down on her.

The surrounding fog grew thicker, like a natural barrier separating them from the outside world, making the valley seem even more mysterious and oppressive. Dark Night Owl extended a finger, like a cold iron rod, pointing at Liu Tingting and saying coldly, "Hmph, I hope so. You said things were going well, but we still don't have the White Tiger and the Vermillion Bird. How can I trust you? How many immortality elixirs have you taken from our Shadow Alliance? Aren't you grateful?"

Liu Tingting was angry in her heart, but her face remained calm. She cursed in her heart: "This old thing dares to question me! When I succeed, the first person I will deal with is you." But she was still calm and stepped forward to meet the gaze of Dark Night Owl. Her eyes were full of confidence, as if she could see through all difficulties.

She stood slightly on tiptoe, straightened her back, and stared back at Dark Night Owl, unwilling to be outdone. She said, "Deputy Alliance Leader, don't worry. I've been taking good care of those two auspicious beasts these past few days, and they've let down their guard against me. If it weren't for the people around Shi Feiyang meddling in my affairs, I would have succeeded long ago. But it's almost time. Just give me a little more time, and I'll definitely be able to bring them here. When I bring White Tiger and Vermillion Bird to join the Immortal Realm, I'm sure they'll stir up a storm there and let everyone know how powerful I, Liu Tingting, am."

On the other side, Gong Simeng was talking with Shi Feiyang.

Gong Simeng listened to Shi Feiyang describing the details of the plan in detail, with a glint of surprise in her eyes.

The light is like the brightest star in the night sky.

She couldn't help but applaud, with a bright smile on her face, and said, "Husband, your plan is wonderful! I knew you wouldn't be fooled by that witch Liu Tingting. Your wisdom is simply unmatched. With you here, we will definitely be able to see through Liu Tingting's conspiracy and make her wishful thinking completely fail." As she spoke, she excitedly turned around in place, her skirt flying, like a happy butterfly.

As he was speaking, a night owl quietly landed on a branch not far away like a ghost.

Its inky black feathers almost blended in with its surroundings in the night, with only a pair of eyes emitting a faint green light flashing with an eerie aura in the darkness.

Suddenly, the night owl raised its head and let out a shrill cry. The sound was sharp and long, instantly piercing the oppressive and almost suffocating night sky. It was like a wail from hell, which made people terrified.

Liu Tingting trembled slightly when she heard the cry, but immediately calmed down. As she spoke, she gestured in the air with her hands, her movements exaggerated and urgent, trying to make the Night Owl believe her seemingly perfect plan.

Her voice echoed through the night sky, carrying a hint of bewitching intensity. "Deputy Alliance Leader, you see, I've been working under Shi Feiyang's watchful eye every day, and I've already earned some trust from White Tiger and Vermillion Bird. Just give me a little more time, and I'll be able to bring them safely to our Shadow Alliance. Then, with the power of these two auspicious beasts, we'll unleash a storm in the Immortal Realm, unstoppable."

At this moment, a member of the Shadow Alliance stepped forward like a ghost. He was slender and light-footed, holding an exquisite wooden box in his hands. The box was carved with strange patterns and shimmered mysteriously in the faint moonlight.

He respectfully handed the wooden box to Liu Tingting, his voice low and hoarse: "Miss Liu, this is the 'Illusionary Heart Powder' that the Alliance Leader prepared specially for you. Just mix it into the food of the White Tiger and the Vermillion Bird, and they will be at your mercy."

A hint of surprise flashed in Liu Tingting's eyes. She couldn't wait to take the wooden box and gently opened it.

In an instant, a faint fragrance came to my face. The fragrance was quiet yet a bit strange, as if it could penetrate deep into one's soul.

A sneer curled up the corner of her mouth, a smile that looked particularly sinister in the darkness. She thought smugly, "With this thing, those who stand in my way will have even less to fear. Shi Feiyang, you're doomed this time. When I control the White Tiger and the Vermillion Bird and become a figure who can call the wind and rain in the fairy world, the entire martial arts world will tremble at my feet."

From somewhere in the valley came the sound of gurgling water, which added a sense of mystery to the tense atmosphere.

Liu Tingting held the wooden box carefully in her hands, as if she was holding the most precious treasure in the world.

She carefully examined the medicinal powder inside. The powder was as fine as dust and shimmered with a faint light. Greed flashed in her eyes, as if she had seen herself standing at the pinnacle of the fairyland, accepting everyone's worship.

Dark Night Owl snorted coldly, and the sound was like frost and snow in the cold winter, with a biting chill: "Liu Tingting, don't be too happy too soon. This 'Illusionary Heart Powder' is extremely precious. The leader gave it to you because you still have some use for it. If you take the thing and still can't get the job done, humph, you should know the consequences." As he spoke, he clenched his fists, and the joints made a "cracking" sound. The sound was particularly harsh in the silent valley.

There was a threatening look on his face and a hint of ferocity in his eyes, as if he would eat Liu Tingting alive in the next second.

Liu Tingting's face changed slightly, and a wave of fear surged in her heart. The fear was like an invisible hand, tightly strangling her throat.

But she suppressed it, secretly gritting her teeth: "You are threatening me! When I am done, I will see if you dare to treat me like this again. I, Liu Tingting, am not a soft persimmon that can be manipulated by others. One day, I will make the Shadow Alliance my stepping stone."

But she soon returned to her smile, a smile as bright as a spring flower, yet concealing a hidden meaning: "Deputy Alliance Leader, rest assured. When have I, Liu Tingting, ever let you down in my work? This time is no different. As long as I bring White Tiger and Vermillion Bird here, don't forget what you promised me. Once I gain a firm foothold in the immortal world and become a powerful and influential immortal, you too will rise to prominence with me."

At this moment, a dark cloud slowly drifted by, like a huge curtain, completely blocking the faint moonlight. The valley fell into deeper darkness, as if the whole world was swallowed by darkness.

As she spoke, she patted her chest with confidence, trying to reassure Night Owl.

Dark Night Owl folded his arms across his chest and said coldly, "As long as you succeed, the Shadow Alliance will naturally not treat you unfairly. But if you dare to play any tricks, even if you escape to the ends of the earth, we will find you."

He narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a hint of ruthlessness, as if he could see through Liu Tingting's thoughts.

Liu Tingting felt disgusted, but on the surface she maintained a serious expression: "Deputy Alliance Leader, since I've chosen to cooperate with the Shadow Alliance, I have no intention of betraying them. We all get what we need, so why say such harsh words?"

In reality, she was secretly planning that once she obtained the auspicious beast and enhanced her power, she would find a chance to break free from the control of the Shadow Alliance. By then, she would no longer be bound by anyone, and would be free to roam the immortal world and establish her own vast power.

The fog around them grew thicker and thicker, making it almost impossible to see one's hand in front of one's face. The fog was like thick milk, enveloping everyone and adding a bit of tension and depression to the conversation.

As she spoke, she lowered her head slightly to hide the disgust in her eyes, which was like a burning flame, blazing in her heart.

Dark Night Owl stared at Liu Tingting for a long time, his eyes seeming to see through her, then turned around and said, "Okay, I'll trust you again. Remember, we'll see the results in three days."

He waved his hand, signaling everyone to disperse.

Liu Tingting looked at Dark Night Owl's back, a subtle glint of resentment flashing in her eyes. That resentment was like a venomous snake hidden in the darkness, ready to strike at any moment. She thought bitterly, "Just wait and see. Sooner or later, I'll make you all bow down to me."

But he quickly regained his composure, his voice clear and firm: "Don't worry, Deputy Alliance Leader, in three days, everything will be as you wish."

At this time, the mountain wind gradually died down, and the entire valley fell into an almost frozen silence, waiting for the coming storm.

Liu Tingting stared at Dark Night Owl's back, her hands unconsciously clenching, her nails digging into her palms, leaving faint crescent-shaped marks. Afterward, Liu Tingting exchanged a few more words in low voices with the Shadow Alliance. The sound was like the buzzing of a mosquito, barely perceptible in the silent valley.

After finishing the conversation, she turned around and her figure quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Her figure gradually moved away in the moonlight and soon blended into the night, as if she had never appeared.

The members of the Shadow Alliance also dispersed quietly after a moment, their figures disappearing into the dark corners like ghosts.

Only an empty valley remained, as if nothing had happened. Only the lingering fog and the occasional cry of a night owl told of the secret meeting that had just taken place.

In the tent at Hengshan, Shi Feiyang was studying a map carefully.

His eyes were focused and deep, the pen in his hand gently stroked on the map, and his mind kept deducing various possible situations.

He was well aware of Liu Tingting's conspiracy and understood the huge danger that Baihu and Suzaku faced.

But he was not afraid. With his wisdom, he had developed a series of countermeasures.

He firmly believed that as long as he planned carefully, he would be able to thwart Liu Tingting's conspiracy and protect Baihu and Suzaku.

At the same time, Gong Simeng was sitting outside the tent, looking at the mountains in the distance, his eyes full of worry.

Her feelings for Shi Feiyang are unwavering. Ever since she met him, her heart has been completely devoted to him.

She knew that Shi Feiyang was facing a huge challenge, and she secretly vowed in her heart that no matter what happened, she would stay by Shi Feiyang's side and face everything with him.

She thought about Shi Feiyang's safety and the impending crisis, and her heart was filled with mixed emotions, but her persistence in love was like the brightest star in the night sky, illuminating her way forward.

The night is deep, like an endless piece of black silk, gently covering the earth. Everything is silent, only the sound of the wind wanders freely across the vast sky and earth, making a howling sound like ghosts and wolves, playing a prelude to the coming storm.

Gong Simeng piloted the Suzaku, soaring freely through the vast night sky. The Suzaku radiated a fiery light, like a burning star, piercing the darkness. Moonlight, as clear and cool as water, fell upon Gong Simeng's shoulders, outlining a hazy and holy outline for her. She looked like a fairy descending from the night sky.

Suddenly, her eagle-like eyesight pinpointed a scene near Tianlong Mountain, where Liu Tingting was secretly engaging with a group of mysterious individuals dressed in dark blue suits. These individuals exuded a chilling aura, as if emanating from an icy cellar. They spoke to Liu Tingting in low voices, their expressions solemn, their every move shimmering with mystery and strangeness.

Gong Simeng was shocked, and her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand. She did not dare to delay for a moment and immediately drove Suzaku.

The Vermilion Bird let out a long cry towards the sky, the sound shaking the whole area. Like a red lightning, it rushed towards the Hengshan Valley. Its speed was so fast that it brought up a strong airflow, making the surrounding air tremble.

"Flying Eagle Detective" Xie Wen used the Fei Catkins and Light Smoke skill, and his whole body seemed like a wisp of misty green smoke, rapidly shuttling through the mountains and forests.

His posture was light and agile, just like a nimble monkey. His toes tapped the branches lightly, making a slight rustling sound, which was like falling leaves. In a flash, he returned to the headquarters of the Xiongying Society.

At this time, Shi Feiyang was sitting in the tent with Wu Zhong, Lin Wanqing and other heroes to discuss countermeasures.

Shi Feiyang has sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and his well-defined face shows a sense of calmness and fortitude, like a towering mountain, indestructible.

A black suit tightly outlines his tall and agile figure, showing his heroism and heroism.

A sharp Burmese knife hung at his waist, swaying gently with his movements. The blade flashed with cold light, telling of its extraordinary nature.

His eyes were deep and sharp, like the cold stars twinkling in the night sky, as if they could see through everything, penetrate the darkness, and hit the enemy's vital points.

The atmosphere in the tent was solemn and depressing. The candlelight flickered, and the dim light reflected the serious faces of everyone.

Gong Simeng and Xie Wen arrived one after another and told everyone the shocking news that Liu Tingting was colluding with the Shadow Alliance.

Xie Wen's brows were furrowed, his expression serious, like a volcano about to erupt. He spoke slowly, "Liu Tingting is colluding with the Shadow Alliance, attempting to steal the Vermillion Bird and the White Tiger together, and then kill and devour them. If they succeed, Liu Tingting and her immortal family's power will increase a hundredfold, and they may even achieve immortality."

His voice was low and powerful, like a heavy hammer hitting everyone's heart, making everyone realize the seriousness of the matter.

When everyone heard this, their faces changed drastically and there was a burst of discussion in the tent.
