I Am Unaware That I Am the Peerless Martial God Chapter 1333: Impressive Harvest

"The Captain is correct; we truly need to display our abilities today!"

"Exactly! The arrival of this gentleman in Qinghe Town is a fortune for our town's youngsters. We have to capture a fine demon beast for the celebration!"

"Won't going so far in be somewhat dangerous?"

"Why worry? As long as Captain Xu leads the group, this demon hunt is guaranteed to succeed!"

"We can't go back without success!"

The hunters brandished their swords and spears, yelling with surging zeal.

Common people were straightforward and genuine in this way; even a bit of goodwill would prompt them to return it with full effort. Their dealings were heartfelt—if the talk flowed well, they'd pour out all they possessed.

Poetry and scholarly pursuits might not be their forte, yet for demon beast hunting, they aimed to excel. Regardless, they needed to show the gentleman the fervor of Qinghe Town along with their own prowess.

In the end, as males, who wouldn't value their reputation?

Noticing the high spirits in the group, Yi Feng simply kept a serene smile. He avoided any words that might discourage them and ruin the vibe. After voicing his grateful thanks cheerfully, he pressed on with the others, venturing into the mountain's deeper regions.

The darkness of night deepened further.

The team pressed upward along the trail, holding torches that illuminated their way. The ground underfoot turned rugged, with faint old paths hardly discernible. Lacking a guide, any stranger would surely lose the route ahead.

Entering a thicket, the foliage grew far denser. Unlike the earlier woodland path, this area resembled an untamed wilderness. Scarcely any signs of people appeared, just rampant trees and wild growth, ancient giants looming all around, tangled vines draping everywhere.

This wild thicket lay in eerie silence; prior insect sounds had faded entirely, creating a heavy tension that naturally stirred unease.

Captain Xu, at the front, raised a hand to halt the group, then turned to deliver grave directives.

"Listen up."

"Though the peak is still distant, we've reached the inner zones of Qingmang Mountain. Fierce demon beasts might appear anytime. Stay prepared to battle instantly!"

The hunters nodded gravely, clutching their weapons firmly.

The earlier merriment vanished in a flash. These seasoned demon trackers stood ready, appearing battle-wise immediately.

Even under the Captain's leadership, since they escorted Mr. Yi, they refused to allow mishaps. They started surveying the area with intense caution.

Trailing Captain Xu's lead, the team advanced cautiously.

Suppressing their presence, all stayed sharply vigilant!

They'd barely covered a few dozen paces.

Indeed!

A white tiger loomed vaguely amid the trees. Its spotted form caught the moon's glow, seeming utterly fearsome. Even from afar, it exerted a strong intimidating force.

Should a regular person spot such an enormous silhouette, they'd probably soil themselves from fright!

Yet Xu Fengyue stayed composed, his gaze sharpening with a fierce spark.

After assessing it briefly, he whispered orders and positioned the hunters.

"Fortune favors us; we've run into an Eclipse Moon Demon Tiger!"

"Its coat bears white tiger patterns. It must be over a century old. Though not yet mature, it rivals a peak Martial Master cultivator. As our quarry today, it's ideal!"

"Soon, those at Martial Master rank or higher, strike with me. The rest, provide support. Niece Wei and Old Liu, guard Mr. Yi right here!"

"Stick to your duties; no sloppiness permitted!"

His resolute words landed, igniting excitement in their stares.

They shared silent looks brimming with eagerness!

"Eclipse Moon Demon Tiger—what a prime trophy!"

"Today's fortune shines; we mustn't let this creature slip away!"

"Take down the monster!"

As Xu Fengyue seized his dagger and advanced, the others swiftly encircled and tailed him. They melted into the far-off woods, striking from multiple angles. War cries burst forth, stirring the blood fiercely!

From afar, Yi Feng observed the intense demon hunt.

His face held steady calm, heart undisturbed, yet this Qinghe Town spectacle resembled a thrilling film, rather entertaining.

Maybe due to his focused gaze, Wei Xiaowei nearby caught his look and assumed fear gripped Yi Feng. She grinned reassuringly, chatting to ease him while briefly describing the clash.

"Mr. Yi, no need to fret much."

"That demon tiger seems huge and scary, but danger won't touch us. Captain Xu is a Grand Martial Master expert, a whole level above that beast. His involvement ensures total safety!"

Catching her anxious tone, Yi Feng turned with a gentle smile.

He noticed the girl clenching her dagger tightly. Though her words sounded casual, her frame was rigid, hinting at inner unrest.

Likely, this young lady faced such a mighty demon for the first time. A Martial Master-level fiend was truly daunting for a town lass.

Maintaining poise now was impressive; she'd probably weathered many perils before gaining this calm.

That took grit.

Sensing the depth at once, Yi Feng grinned and joined the talk, lightly diverting her focus to calm her jitters.

"Captain Xu is truly that formidable?"

At this, Wei Xiaowei paused briefly, then elaborated.

"Mr. Yi, you're not giving Captain Xu enough credit."

"He's a Grand Martial Master powerhouse, just below the Old Patriarch. Undoubtedly the mightiest around. Forget this tiger—even a tougher demon, at Grand Martial Master top, would pose no issue!"

"You wouldn't guess, but Captain Xu's swordplay is exceptional. Folks from Ye City's noble houses once sought him as a protector!"

By now, admiration gleamed in the girl's eyes, much like pupils viewing Yi Feng. Her earlier tension had largely faded.

Yi Feng smiled and nodded, feigning enlightenment.

"Ah, so Captain Xu holds such prowess..."

Rising from a humble village through grueling practice to this level, even drawing interest from urban elites, was exceptional. Among commoners, he stood as a pinnacle figure.

No surprise the girl spoke of him with such faith.

Seeing Yi Feng grasp the Captain's strength, Wei Xiaowei grew animated. She gestured toward the distant woods' fray and recounted, her pretty features glowing with local pride.

"Sir, your visit today proves worthwhile. Captain Xu leading means you'll witness something spectacular."

"Look there!"

"The Captain's unleashed his renowned sword art. Legend says it's a prized tome from the Old Patriarch, immensely potent! That's the famed Sweep of a Thousand Armies!"

Yi Feng lifted his gaze mildly; his bright eyes captured the scene.

In the woods, Xu Fengyue wielded his dagger, dashing at the savage tiger with unyielding momentum!

Gripping with both hands, he slashed horizontally with immense power!

The blade's light wrapped in subtle spiritual energy; it had reached Small Success stage. The tiger sensed peril and targeted him alone, bypassing the rest.

Blade light met claws, scattering sparks!

Within mere breaths.

Warrior and beast clashed desperately, leaving companions unable to join directly, merely circling to aid peripherally. The tension peaked.

After a few more breaths.

Thanks to his edge in cultivation, Xu Fengyue at last felled the tiger. Still, sweat soaked him, showing heavy exertion. Demon Beasts' robust bodies shone through; they outmatched equivalent human experts. Without his slight superiority, defeat might have struck today.

The rest, missing the peril's fine details, stared at the carcass and burst into endless cheers!

As comrades approached with jubilant praise, Xu Fengyue laughed freely, relieved. While the team reveled in triumph, Wei Xiaowei eagerly pulled Yi Feng nearer to examine the kill.
