Chapter 1375: Unimaginably Powerful
Martial Emperor?
M-Martial Emperor?!
A mighty figure only heard of in legends was actually right before their eyes?!
A single sentence shocked the entire audience into trembling; many were so frightened they almost jumped up!
But when the people of Qinghe Town suddenly stood up, they couldn't see clearly what had just happened. They could only subconsciously look ahead. Seeing no one else in front of the thatched cottage, their eyes fell into confusion again.
Where is the Martial Emperor...?
Aside from the City Lord slumped on the ground, only Mr. Yi Feng stood quietly in front of the door. Where was there a Martial Emperor?
They stared blankly in doubt for a few breaths.
The old clan leader's eyes suddenly trembled, and his hands began to shake uncontrollably!
Could it be...
As soon as the murmur sounded, Wei Xiaowei and the others beside him seemed to realize something as well. They looked at Yi Feng again, their gazes sinking heavily.
At this moment, Mr. Yi Feng was indeed standing quietly as usual, looking no different from before. However, he was completely spotless, without the slightest hint of panic.
In the past, everyone was accustomed to this demeanor and would not think too much of it. But right now, this kind of bearing was simply too glaring.
There were three Martial Kings in front of him!
Even the City Lord had collapsed to the ground. How could Mr. Yi still be so calm?
Suddenly.
All kinds of shock and suspicion surged in their eyes like a tide...
Could it be that this schoolteacher was the Martial Emperor?!
More and more people widened their eyes, their heavy breathing echoing continuously. Wei Xiaowei's clear eyes still held tears, but they were widened several times over. Even Xu Fengyue, the second strongest expert, swallowed hard at this moment.
There was no sound in the entire venue; only a sudden pressure spread out!
That sense of oppression, invisible and silent yet striking straight to the heart, was thousands of times more terrifying than the descent of the three Martial Kings just now. The area in front of the thatched cottage was so quiet it was suffocating!
Even the three Martial King experts had increasingly grim expressions at this moment!
They waited for a long time, but Yi Feng did not reply. This reaction was far more convincing than any words, acting as a highly oppressive tacit admission that completely confirmed their suspicions!
This person must be a Martial Emperor!
The pressure on the three of them instantly multiplied. They exchanged quiet, stern glances.
Nodding slightly, their auras climbed once more. The leader looked back with determination in his eyes and spoke with awe-inspiring battle intent!
Your Excellency.
Although you are a senior Martial Emperor, the three of us are also at the peak of the Martial King realm. If we join forces, we might not necessarily lose. The matter at hand is a grudge between our cities. If Your Excellency stops here, we will personally visit another day to apologize for today's intrusion.
Otherwise, we will have no choice but to experience the might of a Martial Emperor!
A deep voice rang out.
The two Martial Kings on the left and right stepped forward simultaneously. The spiritual energy around them scattered like green mist, already reaching a level visible to the naked eye. Their prestige was even greater than before, shocking the people of Qinghe Town into retreating once more.
The peak of the Martial King realm was terrifying indeed!
Even facing a Martial Emperor, the three of them had the confidence to fight by joining forces. This was enough to show their extraordinary foundations, making them worthy of being called formidable figures of the current age!
However.
Facing such an astonishing aura, Yi Feng still stood quietly with his hands behind his back. There were no ripples in his eyes, as if he didn't take it to heart at all.
At this point, even though the three Martial Kings had awe in their eyes, they also felt it was a great humiliation.
They immediately glared and shouted furiously, unleashing their killing moves!
What a Martial Emperor, to be so arrogant!
We have already given him immense face by speaking humbly. Does he really think we are afraid of him?!
If the three of us join forces, we might not be without a chance of winning!
After a few furious shouts, the three of them erupted with their full cultivation bases. Profound spiritual energy scattered around them as they shot forward like arrows leaving the bow. Three streams of spiritual energy surrounded the front of the thatched cottage, leaving absolutely no chance of survival!
At this moment.
Everyone was so shocked they were left dumbfounded, as if witnessing a world-destroying battle. They had no courage to move an inch. Even the heavily injured Chen Cangyun was so shocked his heart hung by a thread!
Right at this moment.
Yi Feng finally spoke. A soft sigh, like a whisper, echoed in the hearts of countless people and drowned out all the imposing auras.
Sigh...
That single word seemed to contain endless helplessness and indescribable emotion.
Along with the soft sigh.
No one could see any movement clearly. After waving his sleeve, Yi Feng simply lowered his eyes to look at Chen Cangyun. The three terrifying Martial King experts had already dissipated into nothingness like smoke and dust.
All of this happened too fast...
Even witnessing it with his own eyes, Chen Cangyun, a peak Martial King, found it unbelievable. He sat blankly on the spot, his mind buzzing with shock!
He knew Senior Yi was very strong, and he guessed that this person was definitely not an early-stage Martial Emperor.
But he never expected...
That this senior's tyranny would actually reach such a degree!
Those were three peak Martial Kings, troublesome enemies that even he couldn't handle. Yet, when they launched a combined attack in front of the mister, they couldn't even withstand a single exchange?
Dignified peak Martial Kings were actually like ants?
It was unbelievably strong!
It was truly unimaginable just what realm this person was at!
Chen Cangyun was scared silly, his eyes turning dull as if he were dreaming.
It wasn't until an indescribable sense of oppression kept approaching that he suddenly woke up and regained his senses. Seeing Mr. Yi looking down at him, he was immediately scared dumbfounded, his jaw almost dropping to the ground!
A chill shot straight to the top of his head!
I'm going to die...
I'm going to die!
The mister was looking down to inquire, and he actually lost his composure and sat blankly?
This was truly a monstrous sin!
Chen Cangyun shuddered in fear and jumped up, ignoring his injuries as he hurriedly kowtowed!
Mister, please forgive me! Mister, please forgive me!
The tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Ye City are in imminent danger. We simply don't have the strength to hold on. My death is not a pity, but if Ye City falls, the soldiers and civilians within a radius of hundreds of miles will be plunged into a sea of blood. I truly had no other choice...
Since Mister was unwilling to act, I could only use this underhanded scheme to lure the enemy here.
As he spoke, Chen Cangyun kowtowed repeatedly, his eyes showing deep shame.
All the millions of sins are mine alone!
Now that Mister has taken action, the area around Ye City can be kept peaceful, and I can die without regrets. I know my sins are grave, having repeatedly offended Mister. I am willing to accept any punishment and absolutely dare not have the slightest complaint!
Sinner Chen Cangyun, begs Mister to deal with him! Thank you, Mister, for your world-saving grace. In my next life, I will definitely repay you by weaving grass and carrying a ring!
Speaking to the end, Chen Cangyun kowtowed heavily, and blood could be seen in the dust on the ground!
That kowtow echoed all around.
The people of Qinghe Town were also awakened and understood everything.
So...
Mr. Yi Feng was actually such a tyrannical expert. In front of him, even Martial Kings were nothing but ants, and the high and mighty City Lord didn't dare to be the slightest bit presumptuous.
At this moment.
Thinking back on the past, everyone finally understood why Qinghe Town was spared from disaster and not conscripted by Ye City. They also finally realized why the City Lord personally came to visit.
It turned out that from beginning to end, Qinghe Town had been under the protection of such an expert!
Thousands of people watched with eyes full of emotion and awe. For a moment, they only felt extremely honored and terrified. Looking again at the City Lord who was kowtowing and waiting quietly, the citizens' eyes were filled with sighs, not knowing how to judge him.
The City Lord lured the enemy here, clearly wanting to borrow the Mister's hand. This method was truly inappropriate. But if he hadn't done so, the tens of thousands of people around Ye City would probably have been buried in a sea of blood.
Between the morality of one person and the safety of the masses, no one could clearly say who was right or wrong at this moment.
Only the Mister could make the final decision.
The entire venue watched quietly.
Reverent gazes fell upon Yi Feng, the whole town waiting for the mister's judgment.
After an agonizing wait of an unknown duration, Chen Cangyun's forehead was buried deep in the dirt.
Yi Feng, however, did not mention the matter again, leaving behind only a soft sentence.
"I have to go back to class; the children must be anxious from waiting."
The whole crowd was surprised, and Chen Cangyun raised his eyes in disbelief and astonishment.
The mister wasn't going to punish him?
Such a huge incident had clearly occurred, yet it sounded as if it were of no importance...
Chen Cangyun was greatly surprised. He hurriedly raised his eyes, only to see that the figure had already entered the small courtyard, still walking steadily and slowly as usual, truly as if nothing had happened.
The flowers and plants in the courtyard remained the same, the long shadow as ordinary as ever. No matter the countless storms, they could not take half a step into the small courtyard.
It was as if a single door separated two completely different worlds.
All past events dissipated like clouds and smoke.
Seeing this scene, Chen Cangyun suppressed the myriad of feelings in his heart and could only subconsciously voice his confusion.
"Mister, what does this mean...?"
He couldn't believe it. He had caused such a huge trouble, yet the mister didn't punish him, as if all of this was insignificant to the mister.
Before he could pull himself out of his guilt, the wooden door of the thatched cottage slowly closed.
Only an ethereal murmur drifted out softly.
"You may leave."
"Go back to wherever you came from, and don't disturb my peace from now on."
This profound and unfathomable remark made Chen Cangyun's eyes tremble, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
At this moment, he finally understood.
Meeting the mister that day was originally a stroke of serendipity, but unfortunately, he had been blind and offended the mister. Having offended the mister again today, perhaps if it weren't for the sake of the tens of thousands of commoners, there was absolutely no way he could have luckily survived.
Now, the dust had settled on everything.
The mister had already wiped out the immense disaster, and his fate with the mister had also been severed.
Even though his heart was filled with extreme guilt and reluctance to part, Chen Cangyun didn't dare to make another sound to disturb the peace. He could only gaze for the last time with eyes full of gratitude, and then sincerely bow in thanks with tears in his eyes.
This bow made the whole town sigh with emotion.
Many people also followed his example, quietly bowing in front of the door. After that, the town mayor and others helped Chen Cangyun up. Even though Chen Cangyun's actions were open to question, his starting point was flawless, showing his heart for the people. He was well-deserved of the position of City Lord. Since even the mister didn't say much, how could they care too much?
In this joyful moment when the dust had settled, Chen Cangyun had no face to stay for long. After bowing and thanking the people of Qinghe Town, he left dejectedly.
Night fell.
The small town buzzed with heated discussions. The people's eyes were filled with the rejoicing of surviving a disaster, and at the same time, they sighed with emotion and glory that Qinghe Town had this mister. The long street became increasingly lively, and sounds of joy echoed late into the night...
