I Am Unaware That I Am the Peerless Martial God

"Enough for you?"

Su Xiaoyu smirked, her lips curling slightly.

She hadn’t expected this seemingly decent-looking person to speak so boastfully.

In the current situation, everyone was scrambling to get their hands on the items, yet he claimed there would be enough?

However, she didn’t expose him. Instead, she decided to see what kind of trick he was playing.

"Alright, I’ll take as much as you have," Su Xiaoyu said.

"Are you sure?" Yi Feng widened his eyes in surprise.

"Of course, I’m sure. Do I look like someone who’s short on money?" Su Xiaoyu raised her chin slightly, speaking with an air of pride.

Yi Feng glanced at her.

The bells hanging from her attire seemed like some kind of treasure.

Even the hairpin in her hair appeared to be a magical artifact.

He immediately realized that this was indeed someone who didn’t lack money—likely from a powerful and influential background.

"Alright, but you’ll have to come with me to get them," Yi Feng said, already calculating in his mind how much money he could make by selling all the beads.

Well, his fingers weren’t enough to count it all.

"You lead the way," Su Xiaoyu said.

And so, the two set off on their journey.

Along the way, Yi Feng played a little trick.

He thought to himself, since so many people were interested in these beads, wouldn’t others try to compete with him for the monsters?

The monster gathering spots were already scarce for him, let alone with others competing for them.

So, after a few days, Yi Feng led Su Xiaoyu on a long detour before finally heading toward Dark Shadow Island from another direction.

"Hey!"

"You should walk behind me and just give directions from there!"

On the road, Su Yu'er called out to Yi Feng.

"Why?" Yi Feng asked, puzzled.

"This area is sparsely populated. If we encounter any danger, you might not be able to handle it," Su Yu'er explained.

"Oh."

Yi Feng responded and obediently walked behind Su Yu'er.

Just "oh"?

This irritated Su Yu'er.

How could he be so indifferent?

"Your careless attitude won’t do," Su Yu'er couldn’t help but lecture him. "You look like a young man with no experience in the martial world, just a naive fool."

"Let me tell you, when you’re out in the world, the most important thing is to always stay vigilant and be prepared for any situation."

As she spoke, Su Yu'er occasionally glanced around with her big eyes, pretending to be very experienced and mature.

"Oh."

Yi Feng responded indifferently.

He was busy recalling how many monsters he had killed and how many beads he had collected.

Faced with Yi Feng’s cold response, Su Yu'er was extremely displeased.

She wished some danger would appear so she could show this clueless guy how capable she was.

Perhaps her inner plea moved the heavens, for the nearby bushes rustled, as if some great danger lurked within.

Su Yu'er’s eyes lit up.

This was her chance to shine.

"Be careful!"

She shouted, leaping into the air, her glowing sword slashing down.

*Rip.*

The nearby tree collapsed with a loud crash, and a spray of blood splattered out.

Su Yu'er landed gracefully.

Seeing Yi Feng’s seemingly flustered expression, she couldn’t help but comfort him, "Don’t be afraid. With me here, the danger has been dealt with."

"Though, to be honest, if I hadn’t been here today, you’d have been in trouble."

"Uh, I don’t think it would’ve been that bad, right?"

Yi Feng’s expression turned strange as he raised an eyebrow.

"Do you even know how dangerous that thing was, lurking there just now—"

As she spoke, Su Yu'er turned to look at the corpse and found a wild boar split in two lying on the ground. She choked on her words, her face instantly turning red.

"Uh, even though it’s just a regular wild boar, a cultivator could still get hurt if they’re not careful," Su Yu'er blushed, awkwardly trying to explain. "Besides, I was just using this boar to teach you a lesson—always take things seriously and never let your guard down."

"Oh, thank you, Miss," Yi Feng said, somewhat annoyed.

The numbers he had been calculating in his head were now forgotten thanks to Su Yu'er’s sword strike.

"Hey, what’s with that attitude?"

Su Yu'er’s face flushed red as she stepped in front of Yi Feng, speaking with utmost seriousness, "Don’t think I’m overreacting. As someone with a chivalrous heart and plenty of experience, it’s my duty to teach a rookie like you some important lessons."

Seeing Su Yu'er’s serious expression, Yi Feng also straightened his face and nodded solemnly.

"Understood."

After saying this, Yi Feng went back to his mental calculations.

Seeing this, Su Yu'er nodded in satisfaction.

The two continued their journey at a leisurely pace.

"So, what do you think of my sword?" Su Yu'er asked after a while, trying to strike up a conversation.

"It’s good," Yi Feng replied. Noticing Su Yu'er’s displeased expression, he quickly added, "Very good!"

"Hmph!"

Su Yu'er nodded with satisfaction, then added, "This sword, I obtained it eighteen years ago from a very powerful secret realm. It took me a lot of effort to retrieve it, and there were countless experts competing for it. Ah, I fought my way through the crowd. Thinking back to that battle..."

Su Yu'er shook her head nostalgically, patting Yi Feng on the shoulder, "I’ll tell you the story next time I have the chance."

"Miss, how old are you?" Yi Feng suddenly asked.

"Nineteen!" Su Yu'er replied, looking at him.

"Impressive!" Yi Feng gave her a thumbs-up.

Su Yu'er didn’t seem to notice anything amiss. Seeing Yi Feng’s thumbs-up, she felt pleased and asked, "Such a powerful sword, aren’t you curious about it?"

"Hmm..." Yi Feng nodded.

"Don’t you want to take a look?"

"Then let me see it?"

"No way!" Su Yu'er quickly pulled the sword back.

"This sword is called the Dragon-Phoenix Sword, and it’s sentient. If anyone other than its master touches it, it will harm them," Su Yu'er said proudly. "Your frail body wouldn’t be able to withstand its power."

"Of course, even though I can’t show it to you now, you’ll definitely have a chance to witness its true power in the future."

"With a bit of luck, you might even see me unleash its ultimate technique."

After saying this, Su Yu'er looked at Yi Feng expectantly.

Yi Feng had a rough idea in his mind.

The money from this deal would be an astronomical sum.

So he asked, "Can we make it a cash-on-delivery deal?"

Su Yu'er was momentarily stunned, then nodded subconsciously.

Seeing this, Yi Feng felt reassured.

"I’m really looking forward to seeing you unleash that sword technique!!!"

Although she didn’t quite understand why Yi Feng suddenly brought up payment, hearing his words made her feel satisfied.

Even though this guy seemed to be lying about the demon cores and lacked experience, he still seemed quite endearing.

Hmph.

Who said a young heroine like her couldn’t go out to gain experience? She had already made a name for herself and even gained an admirer.
