Luo Qianqian looked utterly bewildered, seeking confirmation from Yan with disbelief and a hint of distress in her eyes.
Yan nodded, his gaze towards Luo Qianqian becoming more puzzled. Previously, if their tasks were evenly split — one advancing in Alchemy and the other in strength — now was a challenge beyond their current level.

Luo Qianqian remained silent; after all, the decision was their own. She had no reason to drag these mere acquaintances into adventure with her.
Huangfu Yihui looked at Luo Qianqian's stubborn stance and sighed, quietly stepping forward to stand behind her, his gaze serene as he looked at her: "I'll go with you. As a man, I can't watch a girl go on an adventure alone in front of me."
