Chapter 1260: Jade Skill Freezes Evil, Hundred Blades Defend the Nine Provinces

“Who is the leader?” Shi Feiyang coldly questioned, activating the vortex suction of the Bright Jade Technique to pull the pirate attempting to flee before him like a marionette.

“Spare me, master!” the pirate trembled all over. “We were following… following the orders of the Fusang Chamber of Commerce…”

Before he could finish, Shi Feiyang had already seized his life gate, and icy True Qi spread along his meridians.

In an instant, the pirate’s body surface was covered in frost, his eyes widened, and he was frozen alive into an ice sculpture.

At this moment, the main cabin door of the pirate ship suddenly burst open, and a burly man wearing a demon mask rushed out with a Three-Pointed Double-Edged Saber: “Shi Feiyang! How dare you come to Ryukyu Island to fight us for spoils; today is the day of your death!” His voice thundered, and the blade glowed with an eerie blue light, obviously poisoned.

Shi Feiyang, however, neither dodged nor avoided, allowing the blade to approach, and just three inches from his throat, the suction power of the Bright Jade Technique suddenly exploded.

“Want to kill me?” Shi Feiyang sneered, “You’re not worthy!”

He flicked his finger on the blade, and the icy cold spread along the blade.

The demon-masked man watched in horror as his arm quickly froze, wanting to discard the blade but it was already too late.

Seizing the opportunity, Shi Feiyang closed in, the blade energy slicing across the opponent’s neck; as the blood spurted out, it turned into icy mist, like blossoming red plum blossoms under the moonlight.

On another pirate ship, the second-in-command pirate, “Blood Shark”, swung a chain hammer charging forward.

Where the chain hammer passed, planks shattered in pieces.

Shi Feiyang used the Lightweight Technique to soar into the air, spinning mid-air as he struck out seven palms, precisely executing the “Heaven and Earth Coexist” from the Hundred Victories Saber Technique.

Seven golden saber energies fell like meteors, forcibly severing Blood Shark’s chain hammer.

In the moment of Blood Shark’s astonishment, Shi Feiyang landed in front of him, a flash of white light in his palm, instantly freezing his heart with the cold of “Ice Soul Cold Prison”.

The fierce battle lasted less than half an hour, with dozens of pirate corpses floating on the sea, some cut in half by saber energy, some frozen solid, and others torn to shreds by the vortex suction. Shi Feiyang stood at the flagship’s bow, surrounded by an aura of cold, like an invincible War God.

He gazed at the last pirate ship desperately fleeing in the distance, coldly ordered: “Pursue! Leave no survivors!”

Three days later, at the Ryukyu Royal Palace.

Prince Shangfeng held a plaque inlaid with jade reading “Protector of the Ocean and Awe-Inspiring”, looking at the captured pirate prisoners behind Shi Feiyang, eyes full of admiration: “Hero Shi, this campaign not only rid Ryukyu of a threat but also intimidated those harboring ill intentions!”

Shi Feiyang cupped his fists in return, his dark suit flapping in the sea breeze: “Protecting one side’s peace is the duty of the Heroic Sakura Association. But this Fusang Chamber of Commerce…” His gaze turned towards the east, a flash of killing intent passing, “This account, we will settle sooner or later!”

After handing over the pirate leader to the Ryukyu Royal Family, Shi Feiyang did not stop there.

He knew well that unless the hidden threat of the Fusang Chamber of Commerce was completely resolved, the foundation of the Heroic Sakura Association on Glazed Island would always be like a candle in the wind.

Three days later, at midnight.

In the secret chamber of the Heroic Sakura Association’s branch, Shi Feiyang gathered Bai Zhi, Shi Xiong, Shan Zhi, “Azure Dragon Saber” Lu Chengfeng, “Wind Thunder Sword” Li Ji and others to discuss strategies, the flickering candlelight casting their shadows on the walls, alternating between brightness and darkness.

“The Fusang Chamber of Commerce collaborates with pirates, cutting off our trade route; I, Shi Feiyang, vow not to rest until this grudge is avenged!” Shi Feiyang’s eyes were like eagles, emitting a chilling aura, as he operated the Bright Jade Technique, making his skin reflect a faint jade glow.

Bai Zhi gently caressed the Golden Silkworm Gu Pouch at her waist, a cunning glint in her eyes: “Husband, the Fusang Chamber of Commerce has a massive influence on their home soil; recklessly attacking might backfire. Why don’t we start with their business in Ryukyu, cut off their financial resources, and then find an opportunity to delve into the tiger’s den.”

Shi Xiong gripped the large saber at his waist, saying in a deep voice: “Grand Squad Leader, I am willing to lead a team tonight to destroy their warehouse at the port!”

Shi Feiyang nodded slightly: “Do not be reckless. The Fusang Chamber of Commerce dares to be so arrogant in Ryukyu, they must be prepared. We need to use clever tactics.”

He paused for a moment, then continued, “Brother Shan, immediately send people to scout all the properties of the Fusang Chamber of Commerce in Ryukyu, find out their cargo movements, personnel allocation, especially the distribution of their experts.”

Shan Zhi cupped his fists in response: “Understood!”

After half a month of reconnaissance, the Heroic Sakura Association had detailed intelligence. The largest stronghold of the Fusang Chamber of Commerce in Ryukyu was the “Sakura House” trading company located in Shuri Castle, which on the surface dealt in silk and porcelain, but secretly smuggled arms, and raised a group of Fusang Warriors, including top-notch masters among them.

On the night of the full moon, Shi Feiyang personally led fifty elite disciples, dressed in nightwear, infiltrating “Sakura House” like specters.

Shi Feiyang operated the Bright Jade Technique, cold air spreading all around. Wherever they passed, the guards’ torches extinguished instantly, and before the guards could make a sound, they were frozen into ice sculptures. However, when they entered the trading company warehouse, they found an ambush already laid inside. Over twenty Fusang Warriors suddenly appeared, led by a one-eyed elder holding a gleaming samurai saber, its blade etched with mysterious runes.

“Shi Feiyang, you finally came! We’ve been waiting for you for a long time! Heh heh! I’ve already prepared a coffin for you.” The one-eyed elder sneered sinisterly, “Our Chamber of Commerce anticipated your troublemaking long ago; today is your burial ground!” With that, he waved his hand, and the warriors surrounded Shi Feiyang and his men in a fan shape.

Shi Feiyang snorted coldly: “Just with you lot?” He stepped the “Seven Steps of Dragon’s Travel”, his figure like a swimming fish threading through, activating the vortex suction of the Bright Jade Technique, pulling several warriors uncontrollably towards him.

Shi Feiyang used his palms as blades, executing “Cleaving the Universe” from the Hundred Victories Saber Technique, golden saber energies crisscrossing, instantly slicing the three leading warriors into several pieces, blood gushing out, staining the warehouse floor red.
