Chapter 755

After leading Qin Feng and his companion into the room, the person who brought them there left on their own.

Waiting for them inside the room was a person completely shrouded in a black robe.

They sat motionless on the soft sofa.

Like a sculpture.

Neither Qin Feng nor Lin An could determine that person's age, appearance, or gender.

"You are the one who posted the quest?"

The black-robed person's voice was hoarse and low.

But even so, it didn't sound like the voice of an elderly person.

It sounded more like a young male with a damaged throat.

That person spoke directly to Qin Feng.

It seemed the people from the Qilian Chamber of Commerce had already told this black-robed person.

That it was Qin Feng who had come to post the quest, not Lin An.

Logically speaking, before both parties had met.

The Qilian Chamber of Commerce shouldn't have told the adventurer accepting the quest the identity of the employer.

Therefore, the problem here was likely even greater.

"That's right. Your Excellency coming here shouldn't just be for the three-gold-coin quest reward. If you have a purpose, why not speak plainly?"

Qin Feng didn't want to waste words with this person and spoke concisely.

"Being straightforward is naturally best. However, before that, I have a question I hope Your Excellency can answer truthfully."

This person didn't dally and directly agreed to Qin Feng's proposal.

But there was still a question.

However, Qin Feng already had a guess as to what the question was.

"Ask away."

"Why did you post such a quest?"

As expected.

"Although I don't know why you are fixated on this mist, we don't have any special reason."

"We just met a woman whose husband went missing in the small forest outside, and the pillar of her family collapsed."

"We couldn't stand by, so we promised to help her find her husband."

"But in the small forest, we didn't see any traces of her husband."

"And since her husband hasn't returned home for three days, I guessed."

"Is it possible her husband isn't in the daytime small forest at all, but in the nighttime small forest?"

"Those who enter the mist never return, but no one can prove they died in that mist."

"I suspect that the interior of the mist is actually another space."

"Those who enter the mist have actually arrived in another space, not died."

"It's just that after entering the space of the mist, they have no way to leave."

Qin Feng didn't hesitate to share all his speculations.

He had no need to hide anything.

Even if everyone knew the mist was another space, so what?

He didn't believe no one else had had such a speculation.

The people of this world were not stupid at all.

What Qin Feng could guess, there must be capable people in this world who could also guess.

Moreover, whether Qin Feng's speculation was correct or not, there was no way to draw a conclusion yet.

"So that was the reason..."

Qin Feng could clearly hear the shock and disbelief in the black-robed person's tone.

The black-robed person couldn't understand how two cultivators like Qin Feng and Lin An.

Could go to such lengths for a complete stranger, and a commoner at that.

To do these things.

How dangerous this mist was, presumably anyone who had heard the legends of this mist should know.

Yet even so, they were willing to take the risk.

The black-robed person found it truly hard to understand.

But Qin Feng had spoken too candidly.

And Lin An's expression on the side was equally candid.

This left the black-robed person with no way to suspect their words were false.

"May I ask, why are you concerned about this mist?"

Seeing the black-robed person fall silent and stop questioning them.

Qin Feng followed up with a question.

Just as the black-robed person was curious why Qin Feng and his companion were investigating the mist.

Qin Feng was also curious why this black-robed person wanted to cooperate with them.

After all, this black-robed person looked very mysterious, and was powerful and influential.

Being able to have such a private room here to communicate with them.

Presumably, they were far superior to the two of them in every aspect.

Why bother negotiating with them?

In fact, Qin Feng felt that since they had come, they had the intention to cooperate.

"Because I want to enter the mist."

The black-robed person didn't beat around the bush, but directly stated their purpose.

Qin Feng and Lin An exchanged a look, feeling that things might not be simple. ===== CHAPTER 757 =====
