I Am Unaware That I Am the Peerless Martial God Chapter 1337: The Gentleman Has Extraordinary Luck

Shock!

Xu Fengyue froze in place, as if thunderstruck, his body rigid with terror at the scene unfolding before him!

As the second most powerful figure in Qinghe Town, he had always remained composed during hunts. His unusual display of alarm drew the group close, where they anxiously inquired about the issue.

"Captain? You... what's bothering you?"

Tracing Xu Fengyue's line of sight, an elder team member's expression tightened as he offered a speculation.

"I've never witnessed the Captain in this state. Did the demon tiger in the pit possess immense strength in life?"

Xu Fengyue abruptly shook off his stupor and instinctively bellowed!

"Far beyond powerful!"

"This... this is a Martial King level Eclipse Moon Tiger!"

"Green Mountain harbors a Martial King level demon tiger?!"

Before she could elaborate, Xu Fengyue's countenance had already darkened with severity.

He swiftly scanned the surroundings in unease. Detecting no further stir, he dropped his tone to disclose the reality!

"Unless I'm wrong..."

"The Eclipse Moon Tiger's coat has begun its transformation. It must have drawn in the essence of heaven and earth for hundreds of years. Merely its mane stays pale. True to the ancient tales, it has entered the Whitening Phase. Soon enough, it would shatter the Martial King barriers and challenge destiny itself!"

"This creature wasn't merely at the Martial King stage; it was a veteran beast teetering on the Martial King pinnacle!"

With these revelations, the whole group inhaled sharply!

"Hiss!!!"

A wave of astonishment crashed over the entire team. Faces drained of color in an instant. Those closest to the pit backed away quickly, as though an icy gale had assailed them!

This was a legendary horror—a demon beast at the Martial King peak. And yet, it rested lifeless right there. The notion was utterly inconceivable. Even seasoned hunters were gripped by awe and dread, exchanging silent glances for what felt like ages, too stunned to utter a word.

Merely observing it from afar parched their throats and drenched them in chilly perspiration.

Even in death, the tiger's formidable presence endured!

A profound quiet descended upon the chasm, pierced solely by labored breaths.

Amid this oppressive air, the squad members struggled to focus. Dread flickered in their gazes as they inevitably peered about warily. Green Mountain now appeared alien, brimming with endless perils.

They were at a loss to fathom the events that transpired.

What immense terror could have slain such a Demon King in this very spot!

For an instant.

All resembled startled fowl, glancing about uneasily. Their earlier poise and assurance as hunters vanished completely before this horrifying display.

Even Xu Fengyue, the second finest authority, bore only raw terror and astonishment upon his visage.

Noticing the group's utter fright, Yi Feng at last comprehended that the young tiger he had slain in self-defense possessed a remarkable pedigree.

With events unfolding thus, he had no choice but to advance, offer casual words, deflect the subject, and reassure the others.

"Captain Xu, everyone, are you okay?"

"A mist descended earlier, separating us. Now that you're back, I can breathe easy again."

These words pulled the crowd from their trance.

As Yi Feng approached with steady poise, Xu Fengyue appeared to grasp something. Bypassing the salutation, he pressed urgently!

"Mr. Yi Feng!"

"What on earth occurred here?! How did a Martial King level Eclipse Moon Tiger meet such a wretched end?!"

His piercing stare was unyielding, brooking no dodge. No hint of deceit could slip past his watch; he was resolute in unearthing the facts immediately!

This commanding aura swiftly knotted the team's nerves!

For common folk, it was indeed heart-rending, embodying the bearing of a mighty warrior.

Yet.

Yi Feng, having perceived much by this point, felt no stir from this display in his mind; it resembled a youngster's fit.

He offered a subtle smile in response.

"I haven't a clue either."

"Once separated, I searched for you in the vicinity. Then I arrived here and found this demon tiger lifeless in the pit, exactly as it appears to you."

"It appears... it perished here ages ago, doesn't it?"

At these words, doubt stirred within Xu Fengyue.

Perished ages ago...

This was a grand Demon King, a fearsome entity beyond the elder patriarch's grasp. How could it simply expire here without cause?

Yet he observed intently for several moments.

Yi Feng's gaze remained serene like a still pond. Not a trace of doubt or hint emerged. It was as though his account was pure fact.

Abruptly, Xu Fengyue creased his brow and turned to the veteran beside him.

The pair shared prolonged looks but voiced nothing. Returning to Yi Feng, the educator, no oddities presented themselves.

It couldn't be...

That a frail academic tormented and felled a Martial King level demon tiger, could it?

Absurdity!

Perhaps this demon tiger truly met its end here naturally?

The tension held for mere breaths, yet the mood grew oddly peculiar.

Wei Xiaowei, unable to contain herself, addressed Xu Fengyue with bewilderment.

"Captain Xu, why are you getting so harsh with the teacher all of a sudden? You don't really believe the teacher drew this Martial King level tiger or slew it, do you?"

"The teacher has bestowed immense favor on Qinghe Town. How could you act so impolitely..."

Her query voiced, the group's irritation became palpable.

Xu Fengyue recognized his overreaction. He chuckled uneasily and shifted topics with a pretext.

"Well..."

"I was merely eager to uncover how the tiger met its demise!"

"Alas, this beast is so daunting that it rattled me, causing a lapse in decorum. Since it's been deceased for so long, discovering it is a tremendous boon for us. No need to linger on it. If I offended, please forgive me, Mr. Yi Feng. Else, Niece Wei might come after me."

This lighthearted quip at last lightened the air. The group unwound, and chuckles filled the space.

"Hahaha..."

"Tsk tsk, Miss Wei favors the newcomer!"

Wei Xiaowei stamped her foot, blushing as she bowed her head, silent thereafter.

The assembly grew ever more at ease, shedding all strain. They mustered bravery to near and inspect the tiger, marveling aloud.

As calm returned, Yi Feng merely smiled lightly, unperturbed.

"Brother Xu, think nothing of it."

Xu Fengyue exhaled deeply in relief and promptly gestured, issuing a command!

"Team."

"This seems like fortune from above; our stroke of luck is here!"

"Mr. Yi Feng boasts remarkable fortune to stumble upon a Martial King level tiger remains. Let's carve it up and share now, then haul it home for a festive evening!"

His enthusiastic directive ignited delight in every eye.

The group set to flaying and butchering the creature themselves. Wonders and gasps reverberated in the woodland dusk. Such a yield hadn't graced them in years. Securing a Martial King level body this night sufficed for boasts spanning half a lifetime!

In under an hour.

The demon hunters' squad made their way back to Qinghe Town, their joyous banter and thrilled chatter echoing across the nocturnal heavens.
