Is it reliable?
Although Lan Qin had some doubts, she still used her true energy to condense a protective shield to cover her entire body.
Qin Feng used his spiritual power to create a protective shield around himself, said nothing, and started walking forward.
Lan Qin was worried that the protective shield wouldn't be able to stop the poison gas, so she waited until Qin Feng had walked more than twenty meters before taking a step to follow him.
Qin Feng stopped beside a swamp emitting poisonous gas, intending to verify whether the protective shield was effective.
Upon seeing this, Lan Qin immediately stopped, her eyes gleaming as she watched intently.
Several minutes passed, and Qin Feng finally confirmed that the protective shield could block the poisonous gas, so he continued to walk forward.
Lan Qin was finally relieved and quickly followed Qin Feng.
As they walked, Qin Feng and Lan Qin both stopped and looked up at the sky.
A portal appeared in the sky, and a figure fell out of it.
Both of them were stunned for a moment, their eyes flickering as they looked at the rapidly falling figure.
The person was wearing a gray robe and appeared to be an elderly woman in her seventies or eighties.
However, this old woman was no ordinary person; she was a powerful expert at the peak of the Heavenly Realm.
The old woman happened to land next to a swamp. She immediately sensed the poisonous gas emanating from the swamp and quickly conjured a protective shield of true energy to cover her entire body.
Then, she looked at Qin Feng and Lan Qin, her eyes filled with vigilance.
Qin Feng and Lan Qin both looked at the old woman, wondering about her background.
Dark Dragon Palace?
Or some other force?
How many more people have arrived?
After a while, seeing that Qin Feng and Lan Qin showed no hostility towards her, the old woman turned and left.
After watching the old woman walk away, Lan Qin frowned slightly. "This person's strength seems to be above mine?"
"And he's no weaker than King Xia, so he probably isn't from the Dark Dragon Palace!"
Qin Feng shrugged dismissively. "Who cares who she is?"
"Anyway, if you and I join forces, we can easily crush her."
Lan Qin nodded; she thought so too.
However, she was a little worried that the old woman might have other accomplices, and if a conflict broke out, she and Qin Feng might not be a match for them.
Qin Feng and Lan Qin said nothing more and continued walking.
This swamp area is too strange; it's best to leave as soon as possible.
After walking for about ten minutes, Qin Feng and Lan Qin stopped again at the same time, their eyes flashing as they looked straight ahead.
Several kilometers away, a fierce battle was taking place.
One of them had the old woman's aura, while her opponent's aura was rather strange, neither like a martial artist nor a demon beast.
Qin Feng released his divine sense to investigate, and his expression became somewhat strange.
The old woman's opponent was actually a venomous beast, and a rather powerful one at that: a green-eyed toad.
This venomous beast is likely to be in the mid-Nascent Soul stage, or even possibly in the late stage.
However, venomous beasts cannot transform into human form, so the green-eyed toad remains in its venomous beast form, looking extremely ugly and ferocious.
The old woman was no ordinary person; she was evenly matched with the green-eyed toad, and it was difficult to determine a winner in a short time.
Lan Qin turned her gaze to Qin Feng and asked, "Should we go help her?"
Qin Feng glanced at Lan Qin. "If you want to play the saint, I won't stop you!"
In this unknown place, monsters and poisonous beasts appeared one after another, and none of them were weak.
They definitely need to conserve their strength.
Let the Virgin Mary do the thing of helping those in need.
Lan Qin frowned slightly. "I'm not a saint, I was just asking casually!"
Qin Feng rolled his eyes. In his opinion, Lan Qin had some potential to be a saint.
If she hadn't threatened to go to war with the Witch Clan, this woman would probably have stubbornly continued to save those unrelated Dragon Kingdom people.
Qin Feng and Lan Qin stood still, watching the battle unfold without moving.
After more than twenty minutes, the old woman and the blue-eyed toad finally decided who would win.
The old woman, at the cost of severe injury, killed the blue-eyed toad.
Her current condition is very bad. Although she is not in mortal danger, in this unknown place, if she encounters another poisonous beast or monster, she will surely die.
Qin Feng and Lan Qin thought the old woman would leave immediately, but to their surprise, she walked towards them.
Lan Qin looked bewildered. "Isn't she worried that we'll kill her and steal the treasure?"
Qin Feng's eyes flickered. "I guess she wants to take a gamble and ask us for help, or for cooperation."
Lan Qin blinked. "Impossible, right?"
"If it were me, I would immediately find a place to hide and heal my wounds!"
"Cooperating with people in such a place is extremely risky."
Qin Feng curled his lip. "No matter how great the risk, could it be greater than encountering a demonic beast or a poisonous beast?"
"At least we are human beings, and we can be swayed by interests."
"And monsters or poisonous beasts are inhuman; she would surely die if she encountered one."
"In that case, let her take a gamble and ask us to cooperate!"
"In any case, the worst outcome is death, but it's better than dying in the mouth of a monster or a poisonous beast."
Lan Qin glanced at Qin Feng and chuckled. "You're quite the schemer!"
"However, your analysis makes a lot of sense!"
"If she really asks us to cooperate, would you agree?"
Qin Feng smiled slightly. "That depends on what she can offer."
Lan Qin's lips twitched; clearly, this man was about to make an outrageous demand.
But doing so would offend people, so it's better to kill and steal the treasure!
Although the old woman was seriously injured, she was still very fast. She covered several kilometers in just about a minute and arrived in front of Qin Feng and Lan Qin.
The old woman looked at Qin Feng and Lan Qin. "Gentlemen, I would like to ask you to protect me and help me heal my injuries!"
"I won't let you help for nothing. I'll give each of you a mid-grade Profound Spirit Pill as a reward!"
"You should all be aware of the effects of the Profound Spirit Pill; it can improve the quality of true qi!"
"If I'm lucky, my strength will at least improve by one level."
Lan Qin's eyes lit up immediately. She had taken a Xuanling Pill before, and the effect was excellent.
She was naturally tempted, but she still looked at Qin Feng and asked, "What do you think?"
Qin Feng smiled slightly. "I don't care for the Profound Spirit Pill!"
"To be honest, I am an alchemist, and my alchemy skills are quite good!"
"Even the lowest grade can be refined into a high-grade one!"
Lan Qin was stunned for a moment, speechless. Could this guy please stop bragging?
Even the lowest grade is top-grade. Are there really alchemists that skilled?
The old woman clearly didn't believe it either, but she didn't question it. Instead, she said, "Why don't you make your requests? As long as it's within my power, I will definitely fulfill them."
Qin Feng shook his head. "Sorry, I don't have any requests!"
Lan Qin's face immediately darkened. No demands? Wasn't this guy going to ask for an exorbitant amount?
