Ling Xueyan's figure flashed by like a ghost, and in the blink of an eye, she was in front of Qin Feng.
Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and she asked in a sweet voice, "Why are you still dawdling here?" In her words, she deliberately put on a cold and distant appearance.
Qin Feng slowly opened his eyes, looked up at Ling Xueyan in front of him, and asked with an extremely serious expression, "Do you think I, Qin Feng, am the kind of person who would abandon my teammates and only care about saving my own life?"
His gaze was firm as he stared directly at Ling Xueyan's beautiful and refined face.
Ling Xueyan curled her lips, gave a light snort with her delicate nose, and said disdainfully, "Not only is it similar, it's extremely similar!"
However, she knew very well in her heart that Qin Feng was not that kind of person.
Qin Feng's lips curled up slightly, revealing a half-smile, and he teased, "Ling Xueyan, Ling Xueyan, aren't you afraid of your conscience being tormented by your hypocrisy?"
Knowing Ling Xueyan as he did, how could he not see that this woman was not being sincere?
Ling Xueyan glared at Qin Feng and said coquettishly, "Tch! Stop trying to talk your way out of this girl's shoes!"
Then, her expression suddenly turned serious, and she said anxiously, "That ancient demon could break free of the seal at any moment. This place is extremely dangerous, and we must leave here as soon as possible!"
After hearing this, Qin Feng slowly stood up from the ground and turned to look at the magnificent palace not far away. He saw that the palace was surrounded by a strange black aura, which made people feel scared.
After a brief silence, Qin Feng slowly said, "Carry me away."
These sudden words exploded in Ling Xueyan's ears like a thunderclap. She froze instantly, staring at Qin Feng in disbelief, and stammered, "You... what did you say? You want me... to carry you away?"
Seemingly realizing she had misheard, Ling Xueyan pressed on, "Are you serious?"
She stared wide-eyed, as if trying to detect a hint of a joke on Qin Feng's face.
However, Qin Feng nodded with a serious expression, glanced at Ling Xueyan, and then explained, "Although my divine power has not fully recovered, I can still manage to fly."
"But if I fly on my own, I won't be able to fully absorb the Divine Source Stone to restore my divine power."
"But if you hold me, the situation will be very different. I will be able to concentrate on absorbing the energy in the Divine Source Stone and restore my divine power as soon as possible."
"Moreover, in this way, if we encounter any dangers or crises along the way, with your current strength, you won't be affected too much if you take me with you to escape, and I won't become a burden to you."
After listening to Qin Feng's detailed explanation, Ling Xueyan was slightly taken aback at first, but then she suddenly understood.
She nodded slightly, indicating that she understood the reason.
Immediately afterwards, Ling Xueyan stepped forward without any hesitation or affectation.
With a swift and decisive movement, she stretched out her right hand and hugged Qin Feng tightly. Then, in a flash, she transformed into a dazzling streak of light, speeding away like a meteor and disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.
The two of them sped through the air at an astonishing speed, like two bolts of lightning.
However, this high speed did not last long. The perceptive Ling Xueyan suddenly became alert, sensing that an extremely powerful and terrifying force was locking onto them.
This sudden turn of events gave her a jolt, and an unprecedented sense of crisis instantly welled up inside her.
Ling Xueyan dared not be negligent in the slightest, and in an instant, she increased her speed by several levels.
However, to her horror, no matter how fast she sped up, the mysterious and powerful force behind her remained ever-present, as if she could never get rid of it.
At the same time, Qin Feng, who was standing to the side, also had a gloomy expression. He frowned deeply and racked his brains for a solution.
Just then, Ling Xueyan suddenly turned around and glanced behind her, only to see a dark figure approaching them at an extremely fast speed.
Her expression grew increasingly grave, and she said to Qin Feng in a deep voice, "It seems the situation is dire; that ancient demon has probably already broken free!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng's heart sank, but he quickly calmed down and carefully observed the rapidly approaching dark figure.
After a moment, he shook his head and said firmly, "No, the ancient demon is still trapped. What's chasing us is just a demon puppet. It must have been sent by the ancient demon to stop us."
After hearing these words, Ling Xueyan's anxious heart finally calmed down a little.
However, the powerful aura emanating from the demonic puppet still weighed heavily on their hearts like a mountain, making them feel extremely oppressed and terrified.
She clenched her teeth, pondered for a moment, and then said, "No matter how difficult the situation is, our first priority is to find a way to get rid of this troublesome guy!"
Qin Feng responded, "Okay!"
He then quickly began to form hand seals, and with the movement of his fingers, runes flashing with mysterious light flew towards the demonic puppet like arrows.
Unexpectedly, faced with this fierce rune attack, the demonic puppet simply waved its thick arm, and these seemingly powerful runes vanished instantly like snowflakes encountering a raging fire.
Seeing this, Qin Feng frowned and said in a deep voice, "This guy's defense is too strong. Ordinary attack methods can't pose any threat to it at all."
Just then, a cold glint flashed in Ling Xueyan's eyes, and then a faint blue light emanated from her entire body.
She hugged Qin Feng tightly, then suddenly turned around and sped off towards the place shrouded in thick fog not far away.
After the two rushed into the mist, Ling Xueyan immediately used a special technique to completely conceal herself and Qin Feng's figures with the help of the surrounding mist, and successfully concealed her aura.
At the same time, she kept changing her direction of travel to avoid being discovered by the demon puppet.
Having lost its target, the demonic puppet became somewhat bewildered, simply spinning around in place, trying to find traces of Ling Xueyan and Qin Feng.
Taking advantage of the chaos that had descended upon the demonic puppet, Qin Feng unhesitatingly activated the Five Elements Divine Technique to absorb the immense energy contained within the two divine source stones in his hands.
Not long after, two soft, crisp sounds were heard, and the two originally crystal-clear divine source stones had turned into a pile of fine powder that drifted into the air.
After this frantic absorption, Qin Feng felt that the divine power he had exhausted had recovered to at least 80%.
Then, Qin Feng revealed a confident smile and said, "I have recovered a lot of my divine power now, and I should have enough strength to deal with that demonic puppet!"
