  The leader and the beastmaster were evenly matched in strength, the two of them going back and forth, fighting intensely. However, neither of them was really focused on this fight.

  Leading with one heart, worrying about Qin Huan, his own task is to protect the safety of the small team. If something happens to Qin Huan, he will be held accountable. Moreover, that stinky kid really suits his taste. Now he can only flirt with the beastmaster on one side while looking for opportunities to get rid of him and go rescue Qin Huan.

  But the mysterious beastmaster was even more absent-minded, he only hoped that the beast tide could eliminate Qin Cang as soon as possible, and then he would withdraw from this place before the Lord of Yunyun County arrived. Otherwise, when the Lord of Yunyun County arrived, he would not be able to escape. However, those demon beasts chasing Qin Cang did not stop their pursuit, as long as the attack continued, it meant that Qin Cang was still alive. This also made the beastmaster dare not leave, because once he left, the commander of the heavenly army would definitely go to rescue Qin Cang, and at that time, the mission would not be completed, and he would have no good end either. He was also trapped in a dilemma at this moment.

  As for Qin Lang, he cursed all the way, but his feet didn't dare to slack off. He specifically chose those dense thickets to drill into, and his target was small, with strong penetrability. The beast tide's target was too large, with poor penetrability, and also had a certain obstructive effect.

  Qin Lang was running wildly in the mountains and forests, looking for opportunities to shake off his pursuers, but this group of demonic beasts seemed to have gone mad, closely following Qin Lang, not giving him any chance.

  All the way fleeing, Qin Huan's physical strength was also consumed a lot, and his footsteps were also slowing down gradually. The beast group that had gone mad seemed to feel no fatigue, desperately chasing after him. As they consumed each other, the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer.

  As he watched, the monster drew closer and closer, until Qin Lang could even feel the hot air from its mouth on his back.

  "Damn it, am I going to die here today? I'm the one chosen by God! I still have so many things left undone!" Qin Lang couldn't help but curse in his heart.

  Qin Heng's foot exerted force again, taking a step forward, and in mid-air, he made a turn to face the few demonic beasts closest to him.

  "Desperate, I'll drag a few down with me even if I die." Qin Lang's heart turned ruthless, and the golden aura in his body surged again, but this time it was much thinner.

  "Take another one from me!" Qin Lang's right arm was withdrawn to his shoulder, his fist clenched, and as he retreated backwards, he threw a punch at the beast group.

  "Human Emperor Fist!!!!!!"

  This time, however, it didn't have the same power as the first time, and the golden fist shadow hadn't even taken shape before it was dispersed by the beast tide. The few demon beasts that charged to the front only shook their bodies a few times, and they didn't receive too much of an impact.

  However, Qin Lang borrowed the counterforce of this punch and jumped forward a certain distance. When he landed, his feet were unstable, and he staggered several times before falling to the ground.

  Qin Huan quickly got up, wanting to continue running, but unexpectedly, after taking a few steps, he bumped into a huge tree. Suddenly, stars appeared in front of his eyes, and countless small birds kept spinning around Qin Huan's head.

  "This is too unlucky, right?" Qin Lang almost cried out, this was simply a case of "when it rains, it pours". Just this one delay, and the beast group quickly rushed up, surrounding Qin Lang and that big tree in layers, trapping them tightly inside.

  Qin Lang could only lean against the big tree, mobilizing all the remaining golden aura in his body. At this point, Qin Lang had no other way out.

  However, after the beast pack surrounded Qin Guang tightly, not a single one of the demon beasts attacked Qin Guang. Instead, they hesitated and retreated to their original positions, as if they were afraid of something.

  "What's going on?" Qin Heng discovered the abnormal behavior of these demon beasts, and he was also puzzled. He looked at himself and then looked around.

  Why don't these monsters attack?

  "Was it because of this tree?" Qin Lang seemed to have sensed something, focusing his attention on the large tree, observing it.

  At this glance, Qin Lang also discovered the uniqueness of this tree. Among the towering mountains, there were many lush trees with dense foliage. But the tree in front of him was exceptionally huge. The trunk was extremely large, and it would take five or six people to encircle it. The straight branches rose from the ground, and when he looked up, the dense leaves were like an umbrella that completely blocked out the sky.

  "What's so strange about this big tree?" Qin Lang thought to himself. He cautiously moved his body away from the big tree, slowly approaching the beast group that surrounded him. Suddenly, the beast group let out a loud noise, their eyes glowing red as they made a threatening gesture towards Qin Lang, but didn't dare take another step forward. Qin Lang quickly moved closer to the big tree, his back against the trunk, and suddenly the beast group became much quieter, only pacing in place, their eyes fixed on Qin Lang with an eerie green glow in the darkness.

  "It's indeed because of this big tree." Qin Lang had an answer in his heart.

  "What's so special about this big tree? It can make these ferocious monsters not dare to get close." Temporarily without danger, Qin Liang also slightly let out a breath, and didn't care about the beast group still surrounding himself, started carefully examining this big tree.

  Just as Qin Lang was sizing up the big tree, in another part of the Tianpeng Mountain Range, the mysterious beastmaster suddenly let out a hearty laugh.

  "Haha, General Tong, I won't bother you anymore. I'll take my leave first." The Beastmaster let out a harsh laugh and was about to turn around and withdraw. He had already been cleansed...

  It was clear that the beast had stopped chasing, and the only explanation was that Qin Lang had been eliminated by the beast group.

  "Hmph, you think you can leave that easily?" With a surge of anger in his heart, a bad premonition flashed through his mind, thinking that he must not let this person escape, and the fist in his hand also increased its strength by several degrees.

  "Hmph, although it's not easy to defeat you, it's probably not that simple for you to keep me either." Just a moment ago, the goal was just to stall this commander, but now the mission is already accomplished and it's necessary to fight him to the death. The top priority is still to retreat quickly. With this thought in mind, the beastmaster also went all out.

  "Beast Fist Style, Tiger Fist! ROAR!" The Beast Tamer's fists transformed into claws, and a fierce growl emanated from his mouth, as if he had transformed into a ferocious tiger.

  "Divine Fist! Shake the Mountain and Move the Earth!" The leader also made a move with his signature skill, Qin Guang's life or death was uncertain, and he couldn't let the murderer escape from his own hands.

  The two finally went all out.

  However, the two were evenly matched in strength, one side was determined to escape, while the other found it difficult to hold them back.

  Only to see the beastmaster's paw slap towards the leader, the leader also didn't give in, raised his hand and threw a punch. But unexpectedly, the beastmaster suddenly changed his claw into a fist, and the two fists collided together.

  "Boom!" A loud noise like a landslide shook the air, Tong Ling's feet were firmly rooted to the ground, standing steadily, with fine cracks appearing in the earth around his feet.

  The beastmaster, however, used the force of this punch to quickly retreat from the battlefield, flashing several times in succession, and his figure had already traversed several zhang.

  "Hahahaha! Farewell, Supreme Ruler!"

  "How detestable!" The Beastmaster disappeared into the distance, leaving the commander helpless. With his strength, he could only manage a draw against this mysterious Beastmaster, but couldn't keep him from leaving.

  Just as the beastmaster thought he could finally escape, he was shocked to discover that his body couldn't move at all. His whole body was like a stiff corpse, and with a thud, he fell to the ground.

  "What...what's going on? Why can't I move?" The beastmaster shouted in alarm.

  "How dare you make a move under Mo Gu Yun's nose." A voice came from above.

  "Your Highness!" The commander exclaimed in surprise.

  "Mò... Mò... Gū Yún" The mysterious beastmaster's hoarse voice struggled to shout out this name, he knew that the appearance of this person also signified his own demise.

  "He Tongling, put away the shadow mirror."

  "Yes! Young Mistress of the County!" Mo Gu Yun rushed over, also letting Tong Ling heave a sigh of relief. In his view, as long as there was the Young Mistress of the County, everything would be all right.

  "Tell me who sent you, and I'll give you a quick death." Mo Gu Yun descended from the sky like a god, step by step approaching the paralyzed beastmaster. A dozen men in uniform armor followed closely behind him.

  "Don't waste your breath, Mo Gu Yun. Whether you're standing or sitting, it's all the same - death is inevitable. If you want to kill me, then do it already, why bother with so much nonsense." The beastmaster was also a stubborn person. Knowing he couldn't escape death, the beastmaster also became defiant.

  "As you wish." Mo Gu's empty hand grasped out, and the beastmaster was tightly grasped by an invisible giant hand. His dry, pale face turned bright red from being stifled, his body twisted violently, and the bones inside him snapped one by one. With a loud "crack", he was crushed to death by the invisible giant hand.

  Mo Gu Yun didn't even dare hope that he could get any information from the mysterious Beastmaster, and with just a raise of his hand, he would be killed.

  He Jun led the charge forward, and with a thud, he knelt down on one knee, saying sorrowfully: "Young Master of the County, I have failed in my heavy responsibility. This beast tamer..."

  "No need to say more, I know what happened, you've done your best, it's not your fault. Qin Huan is still alive, come with me to rescue him." Mo Gu Yun didn't say another word and turned around to rush towards Qin Huan's direction. The others followed closely behind.

  "Qin Huan hasn't died yet?" He Tongling exclaimed in surprise. Immediately, he also rushed after Mo Guyu.

  As Qin Leng carefully observed the strange giant tree, after circling it several times, he finally discovered a clue. The tree was obviously old, with huge roots bursting out of the ground, and under one of the roots, there was a small opening. This opening seemed to be just large enough for one person to enter, and from the hole came a strange fragrance that made people feel extremely comfortable, while the already very thin golden aura in his body actually grew stronger.

  "What's inside this cave? It's so mysterious!"

  Looking at the beasts still surrounding him, Qin Lang hesitated for a moment before taking a deep breath and crawling into the cave.

  Just as Qin Guang crawled into the cave, Mo Gu Yun arrived beside the big tree. The others followed closely behind and arrived soon after. Everyone worked together to eliminate all the demonic beasts in no time. After searching around the big tree, everyone returned to Mo Gu Yun's side.

  "The young master of the county, Qin Lang's figure was nowhere to be found."

  Standing beside the corpse of the demon beast, Mo Gu Yun's eyebrows were tightly furrowed. Earlier, he had clearly felt Qin Lang's aura right here. Now, Qin Lang's aura had completely disappeared, and now Qin Lang was gone.

  "What's going on?"

  No one would have known that after Qin Guang crawled into the cave entrance, the entrance slowly shrank, and by the time Mo Gu Yun and others arrived, the entrance finally closed its last seam, completely disappearing.
