Tang Zheng held onto the Heaven Horse and stood in front of the gigantic stone door.

A light drizzle of rain was falling, yet everyone was standing in front of the stone door. A solemn atmosphere spontaneously arose, and everyone's gazes were focused on Tang Zheng.

"Sir Envoy, I'll go with you." Ye Yuan volunteered himself. After these few battles, he already had a kind of sincere admiration for Tang Zheng.

Tang Zheng shook his head and said, "After I leave, you have to protect the safety of the clansmen even more. Clan Elder, recently, everyone should not leave the tribe too far in order to avoid the Demonic Beasts's attacks. "

The elder nodded, "Yes, Sir Envoy, you have to be more careful this time."

The Fang Shishi agreed with him with reddened eyes: "Tang Zheng, you should come back if it's too dangerous, and we would definitely have other methods. With medicine being so advanced, this little bit of poison might not be impossible to cure."

Tang Zheng smiled, telling her to be at ease before he mounted the horse. Right at this moment, Xiao Bai jumped back onto his shoulder and hugged his head with all its might.

"Little White, hurry up and get down. I'm leaving now. Be obedient and don't run around in the tribe." Tang Zheng said.

"Zhizhi!"

Lil 'White shouted as he shook his head and refused to let go.

Tang Zheng understood its intentions and asked: "You want to go with me to the forbidden grounds?"

Lil 'White quickly nodded.

"Sir Envoy, please do not. This trip to the forbidden area is too dangerous. Together with the sacred beasts, it is like sending a sheep into a tiger's den." The elder immediately advised.

Lil 'White bared its teeth at the elder and shouted, as if it was very angry that Ye Zichen actually disagreed with it.

Seeing its determination, Tang Zheng's heart moved, and he said. "I'm going to investigate Xiao Bai's background and the final goal of the Demonic Beasts. If Xiao Bai is with me, it might have unexpected effects, and is more suitable for the investigation."

Xiao Bai was too mysterious. Furthermore, with the miraculous flame, he had the ability to protect himself, so there was no need to worry too much about falling into the hands of the Demonic Beasts.

The elder was hesitant, but seeing Tang Zheng's determined look, he had no choice but to compromise, and said: "Alright, then senior envoy and Holy Beasts please take care, we will wait for your triumphant return."

Tang Zheng waved his hand and laughed: "Don't worry, I will definitely return triumphantly." As he said that, he gave Fang Shishi a deep glance.

"I'll go too!"

Tang Zheng bellowed, the Heaven Horse's four hooves shooting up into the sky like lightning, causing the trees on both sides to immediately retreat, the sound of wind sweeping past his ears.

Little White grabbed Tang Zheng's head tightly and cried out non-stop while waving its claws. Its fiery red eyes revealed a strong sense of excitement.

When Tang Zheng saw its silly look, he could not help but burst out in laughter, startling a group of birds.

They rode their horses madly, passed through the mountains and marshes, Xiao Yu had already stopped, turning into a scorching sun in the sky. However, in this mountain range, the vegetation was dense, so only a small amount of sunlight shined on Tang Zheng's body, it was not hot at all.

As the sun was setting, Tang Zheng found a cave to rest for the night, ate some food, and continued his journey the next day.

This trip would take six days to travel to the forbidden grounds, but Heaven Horse were faster than ordinary horses, so Tang Zheng reckoned five days would be enough.

For the next four days, Tang Zheng was considered to be at peace in his formation. Although he had encountered a few attacks from wild beasts, they were not Demonic Beasts s. Tang Zheng had killed one and then eaten a beautiful barbecue.

Lil 'White was also enjoying its food. In the end, most of the huge wild beast was devoured by Little White.

Tang Zheng really doubted how its stomach could hold so much stuff, what was even weirder was that its belly that was originally round had shrunk quite a bit, even after eating the roast meat, it did not become round again.

Bang!

Suddenly, a muffled sound rang out. It was particularly ear-piercing in this quiet mountain forest as the Heaven Horse immediately came to a halt.

"Gunfire!" Tang Zheng's pupils suddenly shrank. He was very sensitive to gunshots and could immediately tell, but why would there be gunshots in the mountains?

There were others who entered the Ten Thousand Huge Mountains. This could already be considered to be the deepest part of the mountain, but the other party was already very powerful to be able to reach this point.

Tang Zheng remembered that Mu Hongyan once said that there would be an expedition team going into the Ten Thousand Huge Mountains to explore, but no one had come out.

Tang Zheng only thought of reaching the forbidden grounds as soon as possible, and didn't want to come into contact with anyone else. Just as he was about to ride his horse and run away, he saw a fierce tiger appear from a bush not far away.

Bang!

Another gunshot rang out and a bloody streak of light flew out from the tiger's head before it fell limply to the ground, dead.

Sou sou sou!

A few figures rushed over quickly. It was too late for Tang Zheng to leave now.

The black gun was aimed straight at Tang Zheng, it was not only the gun, but also an automatic rifle, Tang Zheng saw someone carrying a sniper rifle, and someone even had a hand grenade hanging on his waist.

's eyelids jumped, this was not a normal expedition team, the country had strict control over guns, it would be difficult to obtain a gun, thus it was only possible for big shot like Lin Hu to obtain one or two handguns, and they had to spend a lot of effort to get one.

But the few people in front of him were clearly of a much higher grade than Lin Hu. With this kind of firepower, they definitely weren't ordinary people. Facing the black guns, he did not move. Little White was also curiously looking at these black guns. It did not know what these things were, much less how powerful they were.

"Who are you?" The person on the other side shouted.

Tang Zheng's heart trembled, the man spoke in a weird tone, he did not display any fear, and directly asked: "Who are you people?"

"I'll ask you first, you answer me first." The other person moved the gun and said arrogantly.

Tang Zheng was not moved: "I was just passing by."

"Passing by? How can you be dressed like this? " The other party obviously could not believe it, and stared at Tang Zheng's clothes and asked curiously.

Tang Zheng lowered his head to look at his clothes. He was wearing the traditional Witch clan uniform, which also meant that he was wearing an ancient attire. Other than his short hair, he was completely different from the rest.

An idea came to his mind. Since this group of people had an extraordinary background, then he should first not reveal his identity. Looking at the other party's suspicious eyes, he was probably trying to guess his identity as well.

"Are you a person who lives in this mountain?" the man suddenly asked loudly.

Tang Zheng's heart moved, his current dressing was truly too bewitching. Since the other party mistook him as a villager within the mountain, then he might as well go with the flow, thus, Tang Zheng asked righteously. "Could it be that you guys are outsiders? What are you all doing here? "

The other party had a secretly delighted smile on his face, and then, he looked towards Tang Zheng with a somewhat fervent gaze. It was as if he had seen his favorite prey.

Sou sou sou!

A few more people quickly ran up from behind. They were leading horses, carrying equipment from the wilderness, such as tent food, and a gas mask.

Tang Zheng realised suddenly, no wonder why the other party had walked so deep into the mountain. It was to protect himself from the formless miasma.

"This group of people is definitely not as simple as exploring." Tang Zheng immediately made his judgement. Normally, an expedition team did not have this kind of exquisite equipment, and all of them seemed to have extraordinary skills, especially one of the few that had walked over. When Tang Zheng saw this, his heart tensed up.

Expert!

This person was definitely an expert, Tang Zheng could not tell whether he was a martial artist or a cultivator, but he could not see through them at all. In addition, the other people's bodies were clearly exuding an extraordinary aura, they were all extraordinary people.

"What is the purpose of this group of people coming to Ten Thousand Huge Mountains?" Tang Zheng pondered in his heart. Since the Witch Clan lived in this mountain, then Tang Zheng could not ignore such a mysterious power. What if they were here for the Witch Clan?

"Come down, or we'll shoot." a man shouted.

Tang Zheng pretended to be at a loss as he looked at the muzzle of the gun.

Someone suddenly came to a realization and mocked, "He's a country bumpkin in the mountains, he doesn't even recognize a gun. What's the use of using that gun to threaten him? "Haha!"

The others also laughed unrestrainedly, looking at Tang Zheng with ridicule and ridicule.

"Get off your horse, or your head will explode." The other party had a different way of putting it.

Tang Zheng pretended to be panicking and shouted: "I don't even know you guys, are you guys going to kill me?"

"Hehe, you're just a coward. Come down quickly." A person holding a spear walked towards Tang Zheng.

If he counterattacked now, he would definitely be able to catch everyone off guard, but if he wanted to kill everyone, he might not necessarily be able to do so. Moreover, whether or not the other party only had the ten people in front of him, or whether or not they had any other accomplices, was a question that Tang Zheng had to be concerned about.

Therefore, he precisely observed the situation as he dismounted from his horse. He panicked and said, "Don't kill me, don't kill me."

"Hmph, I don't mind not killing you. Just obediently answer our questions." Seeing that Tang Zheng had given in, the man obviously relaxed his guard and spoke arrogantly.

"I'll say, I'll say anything, as long as you don't kill me." Tang Zheng looked very much like a coward who was afraid of death.

Little White looked at Tang Zheng in astonishment, then at the group of fellows who clearly had ill intentions. It grinded its teeth, as if it wanted to spit fire.

Tang Zheng was quick to react and immediately carried Xiao Bai in his arms. If he roasted all of them, wouldn't that be exposing himself?

Little White watched Tang Zheng quieten down, curiously looking at the ten people with its big eyes. Even the Heaven Horse was staring at them intently.

The strongest expert in Tang Zheng's eyes walked over to Tang Zheng. This person was only 1.65 metres tall, but his entire body was imposing, causing people to be unable to breathe.

This man stared straight at Tang Zheng, as though he wanted to see through him. Fortunately, Tang Zheng had camouflaged himself well, so he did not get any clues.

"You've been living here. Do you know what's west of here?" The man pointed to the west and asked coldly.
