They died because of me.
At this moment, Yan Nan 'er was blaming herself. She lowered her head and her eyes were filled with tears.
She thought about those familiar faces. They had accompanied her as she grew up, taught her martial arts, and occasionally teased her. However, they had always cared for and loved her.
When she thought about how these people would never come back to life, her heart felt like it was being stabbed with knives.
"Why? Why didn't I believe Luo Zheng! If I believed him, I would've warned everyone earlier. Everyone would've had time to put on the steel armor. The Blade Claw Monkeys aren't that strong. It's all my fault! "
Yan Nan 'er muttered as tears rolled down her cheeks.
Luo Zheng stood in the distance and calmly glanced at them before continuing to walk forward.
Along the way, he used his Divine Sense to observe the surroundings. Although he had joined the hunting team to find the Fire Cloud Leopard, he was now a member of the hunting team. He didn't want any more casualties.
At this moment, Xiao Fei and Xiao Yuan were staring at the Battle Wolf Hunting Team from afar, their faces cold and gloomy.
Following which, the two of them disappeared into the night.
In order to not attract the attention of fierce beasts, they couldn't have any light. Even if they were all in the Film Forging Realm and had the strength of ten thousand jin, it was still difficult for them to walk.
This was because the Sun Mound Mountain was extremely steep and there were many bottomless chasms. Not to mention a Film Forging Realm cultivator, even a Blood Tempering Realm cultivator would die if they fell.
The Battle Wolf Hunting Team's hunters were all experienced and they quickly found a place to set up camp.
Because they had lost all their tents, they could only sit on the ground. None of them were sleepy and they were in low spirits.
Although the hunters' job was to lick the blood off their blades and live a precarious life, they were not mentally prepared for the loss this time. After all, they hadn't even entered the depths of Sun Mound Mountain yet.
After settling down, Yan Jun, Old Chen, and the other captains gathered together. After discussing for a while, they came to a decision and went to make arrangements.
At this moment, Old Chen walked towards Luo Zheng.
"Our hunting team has never experienced such a situation before. The Hunting Leader has already decided that tomorrow morning, the other three captains will bring all the hunters, Nan 'er, and you back to Da Feng City. This mission is canceled. You should prepare. "
Old Chen said.
"This is troublesome. If the mission to enter Sun Mound Mountain is canceled, then I can only go in alone."
Luo Zheng thought. Suddenly, he asked, "What about you and the Chief Hunting Leader? You're not coming with us? "
"We still have some things to do, we need to enter the depths of Sun Mound Mountain. Just follow the team and leave. Tonight, it's all thanks to you for discovering the attack of the Direbeasts in time. The hunting chief said that when we return to Dafeng City, there will be a great reward. "
Old Chen patted Luo Zheng's shoulder, not in the mood to say anything more. He turned around and went to arrange other matters.
This night was extremely long, and it was not easy to endure until dawn. Other than Yan Jun and Old Chen, the others packed up their bags and turned around, preparing to leave.
"Hunting Leader, Old Chen, I'll go into the mountain with you!"
Luo Zheng did not follow the team. Instead, he walked to the two of them and said.
"Brother Luo, you're a smart person. You should be able to tell that what happened yesterday and last night was not a coincidence. There's a mastermind behind us. They haven't shown themselves yet. They're obviously powerful warriors. If you follow us into the mountain, your life will be in danger. You should leave with them! "
Old Chen shook his head and said.
"Old Chen, don't worry. I'm not completely defenseless. You guys have my back."
Knowing that the two of them would not agree to it, Luo Zheng took out the Thunderburst Bow from his backpack. The streamlined bow was like an exquisite piece of art. However, it exuded a berserk aura, displaying an extraordinary might.
Luo Zheng continued, "Moreover, even if you don't let me go with you, I'll still enter Sun Mound Mountain. I'll tell you the truth. I'm going into the mountain with the hunting team because I have to kill a Fire Cloud Tiger within the time limit! So this time, I have to do it. I can't back down! "
"Magic weapon!"
Yan Jun and Old Chen widened their eyes. The flowing lightning on the Thunderburst Bow had a unique power. It was obvious that it wasn't an ordinary weapon.
Luo Zheng dared to reveal the Thunderburst Bow because he had absolute confidence in his strength. He wasn't afraid that the two of them would try to steal it from him.
In his opinion, Yan Jun and Old Chen were as close as brothers to the hunting team. They weren't evil people and could be trusted.
"Looks like I guessed right. Brother Luo is indeed a disciple from a big family."
Yan Jun smiled. A low grade magic weapon could increase a warrior's strength. It was extremely valuable and not something that could be obtained with money. Even the leaders of big families couldn't have a magic weapon. But Luo Zheng had one. It was enough to prove that his identity was not to be underestimated.
"I've become a disciple of a big family?"
Luo Zheng found it funny. He didn't think that a youth from a poor family would be mistaken as a disciple of a big family.
However, he didn't explain further. He couldn't possibly tell them that this magic weapon wasn't given to him by his family, but was made by him.
"What should I do? That means you've been asked by your family to kill a Fire Cloud Tiger within a certain time limit? Why would your family give you this kind of mission? That's too unreasonable. Even if you have a magic weapon, with your cultivation, killing a Blood Tempering Realm beast is already your limit. This Fire Cloud Tiger is a Marrow Changing Realm beast. Even I can only run for my life if I encounter one. "
Old Chen looked at Luo Zheng and said unhappily.
"That's right. With your strength, even if you find the Fire Cloud Tiger, you won't be able to kill it."
Yan Jun shook his head and thought for a moment. "How about this? You've done a great favor for our hunting team. Let me help you kill this Fire Cloud Tiger. You just have to return to the city and wait!"
"Thank you for your kind intentions. I have to deal with the Fire Cloud Tiger myself. If you can guide me to its hiding place, I'll be extremely grateful. As for how to kill it, I'll think of a way myself. "
Luo Zheng shook his head resolutely.
"This Luo Zheng might be from a big family, but he's not a spoiled brat who only knows how to rely on his family's protection. It's rare that he's willing to reject my kind intentions."
Yan Jun praised in his heart and nodded. "Then come with us. However, I have to say this first. The depths of Sun Mound Mountain are extremely dangerous. There are even Viscera Refining Realm and Viscera Realm beasts. If you encounter any danger, you have to listen to our commands. If we can't defeat them, you won't be able to help with your strength. Just focus on escaping."
"Okay!"
Luo Zheng didn't say much and directly agreed. After all, they would talk after entering the mountain.
With that, the three of them quickly rushed towards the depths of Sun Mound Mountain.
Xiao Fei and Xiao Yuan watched the three departing figures from afar.
"Everyone else has left and should be returning to Dafeng City. There are only three of us left. However, Yan Jun is at the Marrow Changing Realm. Although we're not afraid of him, we have to pay a price to kill him. He's not that easy to deal with! "
Xiao Fei said.
"Just follow behind them. Luo Zheng is entering Sun Mound Mountain to kill the Fire Cloud Tiger. It's not that easy to kill the Fire Cloud Tiger. Let's wait until both sides are injured before we take action and reap the benefits. Why not? There's no need to rush. "
Xiao Yuan sneered with a treacherous expression.
Yan Jun and Old Chen led Luo Zheng deeper into Sun Mound Mountain.
The two of them had been walking in this mountain for more than ten years and were very familiar with everything in the mountain. In addition, with Luo Zheng around, they easily avoided many ferocious beasts along the way. Even if they occasionally encountered attacks from ferocious beasts, Yan Jun could easily deal with them. It was to the extent that the Thunderburst Bow in Luo Zheng's hands was not of any use.
"Hahaha, Brother Luo, you're really born to be a hunter. With your amazing hearing, you can easily avoid some powerful beasts before they even get close. As long as you specifically target valuable beasts, there's no danger and it's the best way to earn money. "
With Luo Zheng's guidance, the three of them quickly avoided a Marrow Changing Realm beast and avoided a fierce battle. Old Chen said with envy.
Luo Zheng smiled and didn't say anything.
"Old Chen, don't be careless. Don't forget about the Knife Claw Monkeys we encountered before. Those people who led the beasts to our camp definitely haven't left. They might be secretly following us and waiting for an opportunity to strike!"
Yan Jun's cultivation was high and he often traveled deep into the mountains. This allowed him to develop an extraordinary intuition.
"Motherf * cker, if I find out who did this, I'll definitely cut them into a thousand pieces! Our Battle Wolf Hunting Team only had some conflicts with the Black Tiger Hunting Team in Dafeng City. We don't have any other enemies. However, with the Black Tiger's ability, they definitely wouldn't be able to pull off so many tricks. What's going on! What the hell is going on! "
Old Chen trusted Yan Jun greatly. He couldn't help but curse when he thought of his brother who had died this time.
"Old Chen, are you saying that the people who led the beasts to attack us might not be enemies of the hunting team?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Zheng was shocked. He suddenly remembered that he had always thought that the people who led the Knife Claw Monkeys here were enemies of the Battle Wolf Hunting Team. However, he didn't realize that these people might be targeting him as well.
"That's right, in the Five Beast Army, it's not hard to find out about my training mission. It seems like someone knew that I would come to Sun Mound Mountain to hunt the Firecloud Tiger and was already waiting for me here! Their target is me! "
Luo Zheng thought for a moment and understood. A cold light flashed in his eyes.
