I Am Unaware That I Am the Peerless Martial God

Chapter 235

“What?”

Upon hearing this, Li Shuhua and the others cried out in alarm and anxiously asked, “Do you mean that man is the senior who gave you the sachet?”

“It’s him, it’s definitely him. I’ll never forget that back view.” Li Renhao said through gritted teeth.

Li Shuhua and the others were shocked beyond belief.

Then they let out a bitter laugh.

No wonder.

Now it all made sense.

“Based on what you said, the senior likely found out what happened because of that sachet. He must be very disappointed in us for not cherishing the opportunity he gave us and causing such trouble...” Li Jiaxin said with a complex expression at this time.

“He probably came specifically to clean up this mess and take back the sachet...”

Upon hearing this,

everyone was suddenly startled.

This mysterious figure first saved them from danger, then defeated Song Ke with one blow, and finally took back the sachet...

Thinking back on the series of events,

it was probably just like that!

They couldn't help but sigh bitterly with remorse.

Time

gradually passed.

Unknowingly, more than half the winter had gone by.

Yi Feng didn't want to go anywhere in this weather. He just wanted to stay home and be a lazy salted fish.

However, Yi Feng noticed Zhong Qing had been acting abnormally lately.

Usually immersed in martial arts training at the academy, recently he had been leaving early and coming home late, and he would often sit under the eaves giggling foolishly.

Curious, Yi Feng wanted to see what the boy was up to.

Following the sounds, Yi Feng quietly walked towards the kitchen.

As soon as he entered the kitchen, he saw Zhong Qing holding a plate of lard, smearing it in his hair in front of a mirror. Only when his whole head of hair was slick and shiny did he nod satisfactorily.

Then he picked up a bunch of rapeseed flowers and carefully tucked them under his arm before preparing to head out.

Running straight into Yi Feng.

"Master."

Zhong Qing lowered his head, panicked and flustered.

"Oh, so the pig is running around in circles, in heat!" Yi Feng looked at him meaningfully and laughed.

"No, no."

Zhong Qing's face turned red as he hid the rapeseed flowers behind his back and ran out the door with his head lowered.

But this state of affairs did not last long. Zhong Qing stopped going out altogether.

Instead he frowned and worried in the martial arts academy all day. Sometimes he would fall silent for a whole day without saying a word.

Seeing the boy growing thinner day by day, Yi Feng felt uneasy.

"My disciple, come drink with me."

Yi Feng took out a jar of good wine and got two small dishes of peanuts, calling out to Zhong Qing.

"Master, but didn't you forbid me from drinking before?" Zhong Qing asked doubtfully.

"Now you can."

Yi Feng smiled and filled Zhong Qing's cup to the brim.

Zhong Qing carefully drank it down, choking on the first couple sips from the spicy burn. His little face turned bright red.

"If something's on your mind, tell your master about it!"

Yi Feng filled his cup again.

Zhong Qing kept his head lowered without speaking.

"My disciple, there are some things everyone experiences in life. Even truly unbearable matters will always have a way to resolve them." Yi Feng raised his wine cup towards Zhong Qing.

"Master, I, I..."

Zhong Qing kept his head lowered, hesitating and indecisive.

Seeing Zhong Qing's manner, Yi Feng sighed, "Remember, I'm not only your master but also your family."

Hearing the word 'family', Zhong Qing immediately lost control of his emotions. Tears flowed out as he choked out what happened: "Master, I, I really like Meng Tian. We already promised that once we grow up a bit more, I'll go propose at her family's home. But, but her aunt stopped me and said, said Meng Tian is the daughter of a prominent Nansha family and it's impossible for her to be with someone of my lowly status."

"Wah..."

"Master I feel so awful, my heart hurts so much. Her aunt also said I'm useless trash. She said if I dare go look for Meng Tian, she'll break my legs!"

"What?"

Hearing this, Yi Feng was instantly furious.

He had thought Zhong Qing was simply experiencing emotional setbacks. He didn't expect there to be this whole story.

Calling his disciple useless trash?

He couldn't tolerate this.

"That old witch dare call my precious disciple useless trash..."

The more Yi Feng thought about it, the angrier he got.

"My disciple, don't cry. Your master will handle this. A prominent family huh, I want to see what prominent family they are. Come springtime, your master will take you to propose."

"Master!"

Zhong Qing trembled, looking at Yi Feng with tears brimming his eyes.

"It's decided. Don't forget, as my disciple you are no less than anyone. When a person is alive, you should have retorted back at that old witch!" Yi Feng said angrily. Then he started making plans for his own money.

Other than what was under the bed, under trees, and inside his rings, Yi Feng had quite a lot left with the Baofeng Chamber of Commerce. And there was still income each month from book sales commissions.

Of course, there were also the few sacks taken from Lu Benwei.

"I'll smash her with gold coins even if she's some prominent family."

Seeing spring was only a few days away, Yi Feng began making preparations.

First he found Wu Yonghong, Lu DaSheng and the others.

"Teacher, your orders?"

Seeing Yi Feng come to find them, the four men immediately walked over respectfully.

"There's something I need your help with." Yi Feng said, "Lay down what you're working on recently and come with me to Nansha. As for payment, I won't shortchange you."

Seeing Yi Feng speak with traces of anger, the few men immediately stood up and responded, "Teacher, you're too kind. We don't need payment, because your business is our business!"

"Alright, it's settled then."

Yi Feng nodded.

Still feeling it wasn't appropriate, he went to find Zhu Rou as well.

Since they would be going, money could not be lacking, but at the same time momentum couldn't be too weak either. After all, he had to give Zhong Qing some face.

Although Wu Yonghong and the other four were enough people, they were still just some old geezers. Their momentum was definitely inadequate.

Whereas Zhu Rou had decent momentum.

As a neighbor, Zhu Rou also had no objections. He directly agreed to Yi Feng.

After getting these matters settled, Yi Feng went into town and rented a carriage and several horses based on the number of people. Only then were the preparations complete.

That day,

on an auspicious day,

Yi Feng was ready to set off.

Zhu Rou, Wu Yonghong, Lu DaSheng, Chu Kuangshi, Sun Zhuge and the others had also arrived early at the door as discussed.

"Here!"

Then under their waiting, Yi Feng brought out a pile of weapons from the martial arts academy and threw them on the ground.

"Everyone pick one you're skilled with!"

Yi Feng said.

Sssh!

They immediately sucked in a breath.

The blades looked ordinary on the outside. An average person would really think they were just common knives. Only with their level of cultivation could they carefully examine the weapons and vaguely discover their extraordinary traits.

Yet even so, they couldn't make out the grade.

These were truly returning to simplicity divine weapons. Even saint artifacts were trash compared to them!

Everyone eagerly picked one, then mounted the horses.

"You, drive the carriage."

Yi Feng kicked Lu Benwei and said before getting on a horse with Erzi and Zhong Qing and heading for the carriage.

Just as Yi Feng was about to get in the carriage, shouts suddenly rang out.

"Sir, wait a moment!"

"Old Wang, it's you!"

Seeing the person arrive, Yi Feng immediately poked his head out and called.

"Sir, hearing you all are going to Nansha to handle matters, this old man just wanted to ask if you need this old man's help. This old man has nothing to do sitting at home anyway and can accompany you on the trip." Old Wang said with a smile, propped up by his cane.

Seeing this, Yi Feng considered briefly.

This old guy probably wouldn't help with momentum or fighting, but having lived so long, he certainly understood many things. He would definitely be helpful in that kind of situation.

"Alright Old Wang, thank you. Get on the carriage!" Yi Feng waved and shouted.

"Very good!"

Old Wang grinned, revealing a big mouth with missing teeth, and eagerly got on the carriage.

"Sir, shall we set off?"

Zhu Rou and Wu Yonghong at the front asked.

"Mm, let's go. But before we set off, I want to remind everyone of something."

Yi Feng spoke solemnly.

"The journey is long. In a cultivation world like this, we commoners must remember to keep a low profile as much as possible and avoid trouble if we can. Understood?"

Hearing this, everyone exchanged glances and nodded tacitly.

"Hyah!"

With the shout, five horses, one carriage, left Pingjiang City and hurried towards the distant Nansha.

"The scenery outside the city really is great!"

The sun was shining brightly and the weather was comfortable. Sitting in the carriage, Yi Feng looked out the window at the scenery, feeling very relaxed.

After transmigrating for so long, this was the first time he had really gone on a long trip.

He wondered what Nansha would be like.

"Halt..."

Just then, a shout came from up ahead.

Pig Meat Rong and Wu Yonghong at the front then stopped.

"What's going on?"

Yi Feng lifted the curtain to look ahead, and suddenly saw a sword-wielding woman in green robes blocking the path of the carriage.

She had an icy expression and a tall figure, clearly no ordinary person.

However, her face was somewhat pale, and there were still traces of undried blood on her shoulder, evidently seriously injured.

"I need to ride your carriage to get within the Nansha region."

At this time, the woman in green spoke coldly: "Of course, I won't just ride for free. There are bandits all along this road, including some cultivators who rob and steal. With me accompanying you ordinary folk, I can ensure you have no worries!"

Hearing this, Pig Meat Rong and Wu Yonghong and the others had complex expressions on their faces.

Ensure they had no worries?

However.

They didn't dare make a decision on their own, and looked towards Yi Feng.
