I Am Unaware That I Am the Peerless Martial God

Chapter 1566: Embracing a Bright New Beginning (Finale)

During their leisure time, Yi Feng would take Bai Piaopiao to various planets.

He brought her to an island surrounded by ocean, bathed in sunshine and gentle breezes.

They walked hand in hand along the soft, cashmere-like sandy beach, their feet brushing the waves.

There, they listened to the islanders tell stories and recount histories.

They went to see the auroras, and visited a moving turtle island covered in flowers and butterflies.

They explored countless new and wondrous places, met many old friends, and marveled at beautiful sights.

Their footprints spanned the stars and realms of the universe, and they lived a happiness that even celestial couples would envy.

Whether in silk and delicacies or coarse food and simple tea, as long as they were with each other, they were content.

A few years passed...

One day, atop a towering peak, they leaned against each other as usual, watching the sunrise.

To the east, a crimson sun rose slowly.

A ray of dawn pierced the darkness, tore open the night, and ushered in the day.

In an instant, the breaking dawn illuminated the entire earth.

At that moment,

Bai Piaopiao nuzzled her head against Yi Feng’s chest, like a pitiful little kitten.

Gazing at the morning sun, she whispered softly, “If you want to go, just go. I believe in you, and I’ll wait for you to come back...”

“You...”

Yi Feng looked at the love in his arms, astonishment on his face.

“Didn’t you say our hearts are connected? If you have something on your mind, how could I not know?”

Yi Feng gave a bitter smile.

Yes, he did have something weighing on him.

Ever since he destroyed the Blood Moon Supreme, his first thought had been to restore Lu Benwei’s physical body.

But later, he discovered Lu Benwei was extraordinary.

Even within his own world, his laws of power couldn’t recreate a body for Lu Benwei, nor could they control Lu Benwei’s life or death.

After much deliberation, Yi Feng finally reached a conclusion:

Lu Benwei might be a being of a higher order, born from the universe as a whole, rather than from a small world like theirs.

Yi Feng’s laws of power only worked on beings within his own world; they couldn’t interfere with the outer universe’s order.

Therefore, to give Lu Benwei a new body, he couldn’t simply let him enter reincarnation within Yi Feng’s world as the Spirit King had so easily done.

Instead, Lu Benwei would need to re-enter reincarnation in the outer universe, and endure three calamities and nine tribulations.

Lu Benwei had once given up his own body for Yi Feng.

Now that Lu Benwei needed to enter reincarnation to regain a physical form, how could Yi Feng, as his brother, stand by and do nothing?

To let his brother go through the cycle in peace, Yi Feng felt he should bear those three calamities and nine tribulations himself.

But Yi Feng knew he also owed Bai Piaopiao deeply, so he had kept this matter buried in his heart.

Now, Bai Piaopiao spoke it aloud, forcing Yi Feng to face his own mind.

Yes, he hadn’t truly been at peace.

To calm his dao heart, for his brother Lu Benwei, and for a worry-free life forever with Bai Piaopiao,

Yi Feng decided to set out once more.

He kissed Bai Piaopiao’s forehead, his heart aching with gratitude for her understanding and thoughtfulness.

“Thank you.”

“I will come back—wait for me!”

Yi Feng’s words were resolute; he had full confidence in his own strength.

Bai Piaopiao hugged him tightly.

She was reluctant beyond measure, unwilling to part from her husband—but after a long embrace, she let go.

Bai Piaopiao understood well that love is not bondage, but mutual fulfillment and tolerance.

She knew Yi Feng carried many burdens, and she wanted his heart to be pure and clean, so he could find true happiness.

She gently touched Yi Feng’s face, smiling radiantly. “Husband, I believe you. The baby and I in my belly will wait for you to come back...”

Yi Feng froze in shock.

“I’m going to be a father?”

He was overjoyed.

He embraced Bai Piaopiao, gently pressing his palm against her slender waist, sending a warm energy into her.

Sure enough, he sensed a life force within her, connected to his own bloodline.

Unable to hold back, he pressed his ear to her belly, listening intently.

“I’m really going to be a father! Ha ha!”

Yi Feng’s face shone with surprise and delight—at that moment, he was as joyful as a child.

Bai Piaopiao felt the life in her womb, felt the warmth of his cheek against her belly, savored his happiness, and smiled with bliss.

She stroked his cheek and whispered softly, “Child, tell your father to return safely and soon.”

Yi Feng kissed her belly with tender affection and murmured, “Father hears you. While I’m away, don’t cause your mother trouble. When I come back, I’ll make you a little wooden sword, a little wooden horse, teach you to practice boxing, take you fishing...”

That night, Yi Feng held Bai Piaopiao in his arms and fell into deep, peaceful sleep.

The next day, as the sun rose,

a group of children knocked on the wooden door of their small courtyard.

“Master, Mistress said you’re going on a long journey. Remember to be safe and eat on time.”

“Master, don’t worry—we’ll take good care of the Mistress while you’re gone!”

“Master, bring us some treats when you come back...”

The children’s faces showed reluctance.

Yi Feng gently patted their heads and said, “Alright, you must practice your boxing diligently and listen to the Mistress. Whoever makes her angry—I won’t go easy on you when I get back!”

The children nodded in unison, “Don’t worry, Master!”

Then Yi Feng took Bai Piaopiao’s soft hands, and the two gazed into each other’s eyes.

Seeing this, the children started teasing and then sensibly ran off.

Yi Feng looked into his beloved’s eyes, shimmering like autumn pools, and said firmly, “Piaopiao, wait for me—you and our child.”

Bai Piaopiao gripped his strong palms tightly and nodded gently. “Go quickly and come back soon. We’ll be waiting...”

Yi Feng pulled her gently into his arms, kissed her forehead with deep feeling, and then turned to leave.

Bai Piaopiao stood by the door, unwillingly watching his silhouette grow smaller and disappear.

Every separation left her feeling empty and lost.

Her longing and unease spilled over as tears, silent and soundless.

She had no idea how long her husband would be gone. As his wife, she could only stay quietly at home, waiting for his return.

“Piaopiao, I will definitely come back before the child is born—I promise!”

Yi Feng’s voice echoed in Bai Piaopiao’s mind as his figure vanished into the distance.

Hearing his promise, Bai Piaopiao wiped away the tears from her eyes, and a faint smile appeared on her face.

She lovingly stroked her belly and whispered, “Child, did you hear? Your father says he’ll be back before you’re born...”

In the infinite starry sky,

Yi Feng stood alone, his hands behind his back, floating in the void.

He willed with a thought, and a streak of light hurtled through space toward him. The light transformed into a longsword, hovering at his side.

The sword hummed and trembled, as if excited and thrilled.

Yi Feng took hold of his lifebound sword, his gaze burning as he stared into the depths of the universe, and stepped forward with unwavering determination.

This journey was to ease his brother’s tribulations as he entered reincarnation, and to welcome a bright new beginning...

The End
