I Am Unaware That I Am the Peerless Martial God

Chapter 1337: The Gentleman Has Extraordinary Luck

Shock!

Xu Fengyue stood frozen as if struck by lightning, stiff with horror at the sight before him!

He was the second strongest expert in Qinghe Town. He had never shown such panic during a hunt before. Seeing him act so uncharacteristically, the others gathered around nervously to ask what was wrong.

"Captain? You... what's wrong with you?"

Following Xu Fengyue's gaze, an older uncle's face grew tense as he ventured a guess.

"I've never seen the Captain like this. Was the demon tiger in the pit very powerful when it was alive?"

Xu Fengyue finally snapped out of his daze and subconsciously shouted out loud!

"More than just powerful!"

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

His voice was practically a roar, causing everyone's eyes to widen in an instant. Wei Xiaowei had never seen such a scene; she stumbled back a few steps in fright, her face filled with disbelief!

"Our Green Mountain actually has a Martial King level demon tiger?!"

Before she could say more, Xu Fengyue's expression had already turned grave.

He hurriedly looked around nervously. Finding no other movement, he lowered his voice to reveal the truth!

"If I'm not mistaken..."

"The fur on this Eclipse Moon Tiger has started to transition. It has likely absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for over centuries. Only its whiskers remain white. Just as the legends say, it has reached the Whitening Phase. Before long, it would have broken through the Martial King realm and defied the heavens to change its fate!"

"This beast wasn't just at the Martial King level; it was an old monster at the peak of the Martial King realm!"

As these words came out, the entire crowd sucked in a breath of cold air!

"Hiss!!!"

Shock swept through the entire squad. Everyone's faces paled dramatically. Those standing near the pit retreated hastily, as if a cold wind had suddenly blown in their faces!

This was a terrifying existence found only in legends—a peak Martial King level demon beast. Yet, it lay dead before their eyes. It was simply unbelievable. Even the veteran hunters felt a mix of shock and fear, looking at each other in silence for a long time, daring not to make a sound.

Just looking at it from a distance was enough to make their throats go dry and cold sweat pour down.

Though the tiger was dead, its imposing aura remained!

A deathly silence suddenly fell around the deep pit, broken only by heavy breathing.

In this suffocating atmosphere, the team members couldn't think straight. Fear surfaced in their eyes as they couldn't help but glance around vigilantly. The Green Mountain suddenly felt very unfamiliar, seemingly filled with infinite danger.

They couldn't imagine what had happened here.

What kind of great horror could have annihilated such a Demon King right here!

For a moment.

Everyone was like a frightened bird, looking left and right. Their previous hunter's demeanor and confidence were instantly washed away in the face of such a terrifying scene.

Even the second strongest expert, Xu Fengyue, showed nothing but instinctive fear and shock on his face.

Seeing everyone scared witless, Yi Feng finally realized that the little tiger he had killed out of necessity actually had quite a background.

Since things had come to this, he could only step forward to exchange pleasantries and gloss over the topic, while also comforting everyone.

"Captain Xu, everyone, are you all alright?"

"A fog rolled in earlier and we got separated. Seeing you all return now, I can finally rest easy."

Hearing this, the crowd snapped back to reality.

Watching Yi Feng walk over calmly, Xu Fengyue seemed to realize something. Ignoring the greeting, he urgently asked first!

"Mr. Yi Feng!"

"What exactly happened here?! Why did a Martial King level Eclipse Moon Tiger die so miserably?!"

His intense gaze was stern, allowing for no evasion. It seemed no expression could escape his scrutiny; he was determined to uncover the truth right then and there!

This imposing manner immediately tensed the hearts of the squad members!

To ordinary people, this was indeed soul-shaking, showing the demeanor of a strong expert.

However.

Yi Feng had seen through many things by now. To him, this imposing manner couldn't even stir a ripple in his heart; it was like a child throwing a tantrum.

He smiled faintly and replied.

"I don't know either."

"After we got separated, I looked for you nearby. Then I came here and saw this demon tiger already dead in the pit, looking just as you see it now."

"It seems... it died here quite a long time ago, right?"

Hearing this, suspicion flashed in Xu Fengyue's heart.

Died a long time ago...

This was a majestic Demon King, a terrifying beast even the old patriarch couldn't handle. How could it just die here for no reason?

But he stared for a few seconds.

Yi Feng's eyes were as calm as water. Let alone a suspicious look, he couldn't see a single clue. It was as if what he said was the absolute truth.

Suddenly, Xu Fengyue frowned and looked at the older team member beside him.

The two exchanged glances for a long time but couldn't say a word. Looking back at Yi Feng, the schoolteacher, there really didn't seem to be any suspicious points.

It couldn't be...

That a powerless scholar tortured and killed a Martial King level demon tiger, right?

That would be nonsense!

Could it be that this demon tiger really just died here on its own?

The standoff lasted only a few breaths, but the atmosphere turned a bit strange.

Wei Xiaowei couldn't help but speak up, looking at Xu Fengyue in confusion.

"Captain Xu, why are you suddenly so fierce towards the teacher? You don't actually think the teacher attracted this Martial King level tiger, or killed it, do you?"

"The teacher has shown great kindness to our Qinghe Town. How can you be so rude..."

As soon as the question was asked, everyone sensed the displeasure.

Xu Fengyue realized he had lost his composure. He laughed awkwardly and made an excuse to change the subject.

"This..."

"I was just anxious to find out the cause of the tiger's death!"

"Sigh, it's just that this tiger is so terrifying that I got nervous and lost my manners for a moment. Since this tiger has been dead for a long time, stumbling upon it counts as a huge harvest for us. Let's not dwell on this matter. If I caused offense, I hope you won't blame me, Mr. Yi Feng. Otherwise, Niece Wei will probably settle the score with me."

With this joking remark, the atmosphere finally relaxed. Everyone eased their minds and laughter rang out.

"Hahaha..."

"Tsk tsk, Miss Wei is siding with an outsider!"

Wei Xiaowei stomped her foot, lowering her head in embarrassment, not daring to make another sound.

The crowd became increasingly relaxed, completely letting go of their tension. They finally summoned the courage to approach and examine the tiger, sighing with emotion.

Seeing the dust settle, Yi Feng just smiled faintly, not taking it to heart at all.

"Brother Xu, there's no need to mind it."

Xu Fengyue let out a long sigh of relief and immediately waved his hand to give an order!

"Everyone."

"It looks like a windfall from the heavens; our lucky break has arrived!"

"Mr. Yi Feng truly has extraordinary luck to encounter a Martial King level tiger corpse. Let's process and divide it up right now, then take it back for a night of celebration!"

With the spirited order, joy burst forth from everyone's eyes.

The crowd began to skin and debone the beast with their own hands. Exclamations of wonder echoed through the forest night. They hadn't had such a harvest in many years. Harvesting a Martial King level carcass tonight was enough to brag about for half a lifetime!

Within an hour.

The demon hunting squad returned to Qinghe Town, their laughter and excited discussions resonating through the night sky.
