Chapter 831 - 245: Crimson Sky Stains the Blade to Subdue the Wild Raiders, Azure Blood Fills the Plains to Bury the Enemy Chief
Under the illumination of the lights, the hem of her skirt shimmered with a soft glow, like a flowing golden river, radiating a dreamlike and ethereal brilliance.
Her eyes were like stars twinkling in the night sky, bright and deep, as if hiding a vast galaxy.
At this moment, her eyes glistened with tears, like dewdrops rolling on lotus leaves in the early morning, crystal-clear and transparent.
Overwhelmed with emotion, tears streamed down her face, unable to suppress the tidal wave of emotions within her. Like a little bird returning to its nest, she threw herself into Shi Feiyang’s arms and began to sob aloud.
She poured out all the fear and anxiety she had accumulated over the days due to worrying about the war and missing Shi Feiyang.
Her cries were filled not only with the relief of having survived a disaster but also with deep attachment to Shi Feiyang, an attachment as entwined and inseparable as the vines of spring.
Prince Lirak stood to the side, his face full of gratitude, like a devout believer facing a deity, his eyes shining with reverence and thankfulness. He repeatedly expressed his thanks, "Hero Shi, thanks to your strategic planning, our Lindan Tribe has found a turning point today. Such great kindness, we will never forget, and we will engrave it upon our hearts, passing it down through generations. In the future, if Hero Shi has any requests, our Lindan Tribe will do our utmost to fulfill them without hesitation." His words were full of sincerity and determination, demonstrating his respect for Shi Feiyang.
Shi Feiyang remained calm and composed, as unyielding and stable as Mount Tai, dignified and grand.
He nodded slightly and stated in a steady and firm tone, "Rest assured, Great Khan. By tomorrow noon at the latest, the Ordos Tribe and the Kerchin Tribe will withdraw their troops. With my younger strategies, I am fully confident that they will not dare to invade the Lindan Tribe again for at least ten years. I, Shi Feiyang, hereby vow to ensure the safety and well-being of the Lindan Tribe."
His voice resonated like a mighty bell, echoing through the Royal Palace. It was strong and powerful, bringing endless comfort and hope to the people, like a solid wall protecting the Lindan Tribe from the onslaught of enemies.
Dangxin, upon hearing this, was overjoyed, his face breaking into an even brighter smile, like flowers blooming in the spring sun, full of joy and gratitude.
He expressed his thanks repeatedly, "Hero Shi is truly the great savior of our Lindan Tribe! Such immense kindness, I do not know how to repay. If Hero Shi has any needs, I will certainly marshal all the resources of the tribe to meet them."
Then, Dangxin turned his gaze to Shi Feiyang, with a hint of expectation in his eyes, and said, "Hero Shi, to speak frankly, my daughter Princess Gugela has long admired you. I hope to betroth my daughter to you as your wife. What do you think, Hero Shi? My daughter is gentle, kind, beautiful, and graceful. If she could marry you, it would be a blessing for our Lindan Tribe."
His words were filled with both respect for Shi Feiyang and hope for his daughter’s happiness.
Gong Simeng and Bai Zhi, standing by, heard Great Khan Lindan Dangxin’s proposal and felt a slight tightness in their hearts, as if a pebble had suddenly disturbed the calm surface of a lake.
They looked up at Princess Gugela’s radiant beauty, seeing her skin fairer than snow and her lively eyes, like the most vibrant flower blooming in the spring, exuding enchanting charm.
Then they looked at Shi Feiyang, his noble and handsome appearance like the brightest star in the night sky, captivating all who saw him.
In the hearts of Gong Simeng and Bai Zhi, a tinge of jealousy was inevitable, like a spring breeze gently stirring the calm waters. However, Gong Simeng and Bai Zhi knew well that the greater good was at stake, and personal feelings needed to be set aside for the time being.
Gong Simeng forcibly suppressed her emotions, a faint smile tugging at the corners of her mouth, managing to squeeze out a smile. Though tinged with bitterness, it was still graceful and charming. She softly said, "This is truly an excellent match, Mr. Shi, a hero unmatched in the Jianghu, paired with Princess Gugela; it is indeed a match made in heaven. Together, they will surely create a beautiful story."
Bai Zhi, next to her, nodded in silent agreement, though her smile carried a hint of reluctance, like clouds obscuring the sun, unable to conceal the complex emotions in her heart.
Shi Feiyang, after a moment’s thought, had many fleeting thoughts in his mind, like a carousel. He recalled the past moments shared with Gong Simeng and Bai Zhi, those days of mutual support, genuine and heartfelt; then he looked up at Princess Gugela, seeing her eyes full of expectation and deep affection, like stars in the night sky, bright and captivating.
He then looked at Gong Simeng and Bai Zhi again, feeling a warm sensation in his heart, like the sun in spring, dispelling some of his hesitation.
He nodded slightly and softly agreed, "I am deeply grateful for the Great Khan’s kindness and Princess Gugela’s affection, and I am willing to join hands with the princess." Upon hearing this, Gugela was overjoyed, like a cheerful deer frolicking freely on the spring grassland. She once again threw herself into Shi Feiyang’s arms, her face beaming with happiness, like the most beautiful flower blooming in spring, bright and captivating. Her beautiful eyes, filled with deep affection for Shi Feiyang, were like a deep lake, shimmering and mesmerizing, impossible to escape from.
Seeing this, Dangxin felt immense relief, his face showing a loving smile, like the warm sun in spring, gentle and soothing. He turned to ask Gong Simeng and Bai Zhi, "Are you two wives not jealous? Why do you support your husband in marrying my daughter?"
His words carried a hint of curiosity, along with respect for the two women.
Gong Simeng smiled, though her eyes showed a fleeting trace of melancholy, like a meteor streaking across the night sky, disappearing in an instant.
