'Star Envoy?'
Qin Xuan immediately seized upon the keyword.
"Don't be afraid."
Qin Xuan lowered his voice, trying to make it sound as gentle as possible.
"We're new to this place and would like to ask a few things."
"Wh-what would the two Star Envoys like to ask?"
The little girl looked at them timidly, her fear growing especially as she took in Hou Qi's ugly and fierce appearance.
"I... I'm just a Spiritual Farmer from nearby who grows Red Beard Root for Red Flame Dock. I don't know anything..."
The girl mumbled softly, her speech carrying a distinct local accent.
"Just tell us what you know. This is your payment."
Qin Xuan took out a low-grade spirit stone from his Storage Pouch.
The Spirit Stone was crystal clear, emitting a soft Spiritual Qi.
The girl's eyes widened in an instant. She stared intently at the Spirit Stone, swallowing unconsciously.
But that feeling was immediately drowned out by an even greater fear.
She waved her hands frantically.
