Qin Luo glared at her, annoyed. He was only interested in the title of "Poison Master".

It's important to know that while cultivation is the orthodox path, there are many derivative professions.

For example, pharmacists like Yiting who refine pills can provide various forms of assistance to cultivators with their superb alchemy skills, such as healing injuries and detoxifying, or improving their cultivation level.

There are also mysterious array masters who use spiritual seals as brushes and the heavens and earth as canvases to outline powerful arrays that can both attack and defend, and can turn the tide of battle.

Occupations such as...

Poison masters are a rare and unique profession. They are skilled in using various poisons to pose a deadly threat to their enemies through bizarre and unpredictable means.

That's why Qin Luo paid more attention to Liu Shuang.

When they came to their senses, they began to consider what Chai Qin had said. Since they were able to disable those Earth Bears, then this cooperation might be worth trying.

After a moment, Qin Luo nodded slightly:

"In that case, I will go with you all. But let me make this clear: if we encounter any danger to our lives, I cannot guarantee that we will continue to cooperate. After all, if we lose our lives, even the best treasures are useless."

Chai Qin and the others nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, Qin Luo, along with Yi Ting and Chai Qin's group, arrived at the territory of the Earth-Splitting Bear King.

This is a vast area. The surrounding area is filled with jagged rocks, and huge boulders are scattered haphazardly, as if they were carelessly thrown there by a powerful force.

Occasionally, one or two large earth bears can be seen roaming among the rocks, seemingly wary of intruders.

Not far away, in front of a huge cave, a massive Earth-Splitting Bear King lay lazily, its fur gleaming with a cold, steely sheen.

Its enormous body resembled a small mountain, and every breath it took carried a heavy aura that sent chills down one's spine.

At the top of the cave grew a large tree, four or five zhang tall, with a dark brown trunk and strange patterns on its surface.

The Spirit Mist Fruits, resembling miniature crystal balls, hang upside down on the branches. They are about the size of pigeon eggs, crystal clear, and emit a soft glow.

The nearby mist was drawn around the Spirit Mist Fruit, and then gradually absorbed into it.

As the mist continued to pour in, the light from the Spirit Mist Fruit seemed to grow even brighter.

When Qin Luo and the others saw the Spirit Mist Fruit Tree, their eyes lit up with excitement. Based on their observation, they estimated that there were about twenty Spirit Mist Fruits on the tree.

If one could completely consume it, their cultivation level would likely increase significantly.

"Fellow Daoist Chai Qin, please tell me your plan."

Qin Luo glanced at the Spirit Mist Fruit Tree, then at the dozens of Earth Bears guarding it, and said with a serious expression.

Upon hearing this, Chai Qin withdrew his burning gaze, took a deep breath, and pointed to a stream not far away:

"Fellow Daoist Wang, don't worry. As far as we know, these Earth Bears go to the stream to replenish their water around noon. We can pour the potion upstream in advance. At that time, apart from the Earth-Splitting Bear King, the other Earth Bears will be unconscious for a period of time due to the potion."

"That will be the time for us to make our move."

At this point, Chai Qin looked at the Earth-Splitting Bear King not far away and a sharp glint appeared in his eyes.

Qin Luo had no objection to this and nodded in agreement.

"Fellow Daoist Wang, would you like your companion to go upstream with Liu Shuang to avoid being caught in the crossfire during the fight? It's safer there."

Chai Qin kindly reminded them that, after all, only Yi Ting and Liu Shuang, two women here, had not reached the Spirit Gathering Realm, and there would inevitably be some danger in the battle.

Yi Ting frowned slightly, her hand gently gripping Qin Luo's sleeve, as if she didn't want to be separated from him.

Helpless, Qin Luo reached out and stroked Yi Ting's hair, saying, "Listen to me, if you get involved in the battle here, I'll be distracted. Why don't you go upstream with Miss Liu, okay?"

Although Yi Ting was somewhat unwilling, she knew that she wouldn't be of much use here and would only implicate Qin Luo, so she could only reluctantly loosen her sleeve.

Liu Shuang glanced at Yi Ting and Qin Luo, a sly smile appearing on her lips, and then said to Yi Ting, "Little sister, come with me."

After saying that, he turned and walked upstream. Yi Ting glanced at Qin Luo and followed closely behind. The two figures quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

After the two women left, Qin Luo and the others continued to discuss the remaining details.

Liu Shuang and Yi Ting quickly reached the upstream area and found a suitable spot to pour the medicine. While waiting, Liu Shuang looked at the freckled woman in front of her and sighed slightly.

She could naturally tell that the woman seemed to have feelings for that fellow Daoist Wang, but her plain appearance was inferior to her own.

She was so ordinary that she was easily overlooked. Wang Daoyou, on the other hand, was the kind of person who seemed extraordinary at first glance. How could such a man be attracted to such an ordinary woman?

However, just as Liu Shuang shook her head slightly, feeling sorry for her, she turned around unintentionally and her gaze suddenly swept over Yi Ting's figure. This glance made her freeze instantly.

Suddenly, a corner of Yi Ting's thick cloth robe was blown up by the wind, unexpectedly revealing her stunningly hot curves.

Her slender waist was so delicate it could be encircled by a single hand, yet it connected perfectly to her rounded, pert buttocks. Her long, straight, and powerful legs gave her an elegant figure that seemed to exude endless charm.

Liu Shuang stared wide-eyed, her face full of disbelief. She had originally thought that Yi Ting was just an ordinary-looking, unremarkable woman, but she never expected that such an amazing figure was hidden under her ordinary appearance.

This stirred up a complex mix of emotions within her, including surprise, jealousy, and a hint of regret for her previous underestimation.

Yi Ting seemed to notice Liu Shuang's gaze as well, and quickly reached out to press down the hem of her clothes that was being blown by the wind, her face showing an unnatural expression.

The wind gradually subsided, as if what had just happened was merely an unexpected interlude.

But Liu Shuang's heart remained unsettled for a long time. She focused her gaze on Yi Ting, then, as if remembering something, she suddenly chuckled softly and said:

“Young lady, you seem to have a special relationship with that Fellow Daoist Wang, don’t you?” Liu Shuang said as she slowly approached Yi Ting.

Then, he leaned down and whispered in Yiting's ear again, "Or rather, you like Fellow Daoist Wang, right?"

Yi Ting's cheeks flushed instantly, her eyes darted around in a panic, and her hands unconsciously twisted the hem of her clothes.

"You...I...and Master are...innocent."

Her voice was as faint as a mosquito's buzz, broken and lacking any confidence; even she herself probably couldn't believe it.
