Chapter 357

"That's not right, why can't we exit? Could there still be pursuers?!"

Yan Ze's face looked ugly.

Su Ming's eyes were solemn, as if he had expected it, and he sighed.

"There are so many Zhang family killers; it's possible that more than just Geng Zheng set up a combat area barrier."

"So even if he is dead, we cannot easily exit the dungeon."

"Never mind that for now, let's leave this place first and keep moving."

"Before Geng Zheng died, he must have reported our location to the Zhang family; we must get away from this area immediately."

Everyone nodded one after another, immediately formed a team, and began to flee.

Su Ming had previously given everyone the blood of the Orange Heart of Blood to drink; Ji Yao and Jiang Yunqing's injuries had long since healed completely.

Now their mental strength had also recovered a bit.

With the Agility buff provided by Jiang Yunqing, everyone's travel speed was very fast.

The effect of this diamond-grade healing liquid naturally goes without saying.

Only Yan Ze's severed arm was truly too severe and hadn't fully healed; it had only stopped bleeding.

That wound was shattered by a fifth-turn expert's skill, and there was a strange yin-yang energy entwined at the wound, causing his flesh and blood to be slow to heal.

So when running away, Yan Ze's speed was also the slowest.

Su Ming took out the Orange Heart of Blood again and gave Yan Ze a full mouthful.

He almost squeezed this heart dry.

Anyway, it could produce blood infinitely, so he didn't feel bad about it.

The scalding orange blood surged into Yan Ze's body, and under his skin, streaks of orange blood veins immediately emerged.

The majestic healing power gradually disintegrated and devoured the strange energy at the wound.

Finally, the severed arm injury began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Of course, a severed arm cannot regenerate in the blink of an eye; this is the most complex severe injury and requires reshaping out of thin air; even for the Orange Heart of Blood, it would take a little while.

"Thank you."

Yan Ze said sincerely.

He didn't know where Su Ming got this item, but it certainly wouldn't be lower than diamond quality.

He only knew that Su Ming was willing to use so much for him without the slightest hesitation.

This alone was enough for him to keep in mind.

Everyone rushed forward.

The usually lively Jiang Yunqing also became quiet at this moment.

She knew that it was because of her that everyone had fallen into danger, so she remained silent.

"Yunqing, do you know why I saved you?"

Su Ming was running, looking at her lonely face as he spoke.

Jiang Yunqing shook her head.

She rarely helped everyone; she felt that in this team, she was like... a burden.

Besides adding some experience buffs and gain effects, she was really weak, just a small support.

From any angle, Su Ming had no reason to take risks for her.

Clearly, after saving Ji Yao and Yan Ze, they could have abandoned her and fled.

Now she had no home, and to her friends, she was also a burden.

At this moment, the grief of losing her family, the grievance of her family's destruction, and all the sadness in her heart surged up.

She couldn't help but redden her nose, almost crying out loud.

But she bit her lip and stubbornly held it back.

"Why..." she asked Su Ming in a voice as thin as a mosquito.

"We have already been seen by the Zhang family people and have long been recorded; even if I didn't take you with us, they would still hunt us down."

"So whether I take you or not, it's the same," Su Ming joked.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yunqing's eyes immediately became much more disappointed, and her tears were almost unable to be held back.

He had originally wanted to ease the atmosphere, but seeing her like this, it seemed to have the opposite effect, so Su Ming hurriedly became serious.

Su Ming's eyes were clear as he said softly.

"Alright, Yunqing, I was just joking."

His gaze became serious as he said, "Your father entrusted me to take good care of you before he died."

"He gave me two gifts, extremely valuable."

A diamond-grade gift and an epic-grade gift.

Chairman Jiang, a business tycoon, an elite, and even more so, a good father.

He was indeed generous.

"I accepted his gift, so naturally I cannot go back on my word."

Su Ming is a person of principle.

He accepted Jiang Yongli's gift and didn't return it; that already counted as a promise.

Therefore, he must protect Jiang Yunqing well.

Su Ming looked at her and said solemnly.

"There is an even more important point."

"You are my friend."

Yan Ze and Ji Yao also turned to look at her with warm smiles.

The two said gently, "Yunqing, you will always be our good friend."

The final words completely broke down the psychological defense of the eldest Miss Jiang.

Jiang Yunqing finally couldn't help it and burst into tears.

"I love you guys, I love you guys!"

"I want to be with you forever!"

As she ran, she shed tears across the desolate village, crying like rain, and suddenly hugged Ji Yao.

Watching this scene, Su Ming and Yan Ze also looked at each other and smiled.

Subsequently, Su Ming took out a gray-black, terrifying large scythe that looked like a skeleton from his personal space and handed it to Ji Yao.

"What is this?"

Ji Yao was shocked.

This skeleton scythe was taller than she was.

She was 1.68 meters tall, not exactly short, but this scythe was nearly 1.7 meters long, plus a nearly 1-meter scythe blade; it could be called a giant blade.

It made her petite figure look even smaller.

"A gift for you."

Su Ming smiled slightly and said.

This scythe was loot that exploded when Su Ming killed the War Scythe Undead in the ruins of the Lizard Ancestor in the Ice Sea Demon Nest dungeon.

At that time, it was still called the Gray Bone War Scythe (lower-tier platinum).

After being sublimated by him, it was now a lower-tier diamond weapon named 【Skeletal Gray Death Scythe】.

There is no level restriction, but there is a class restriction; it must be an undead-type class to use it.

The grip is made of gray transparent crystal material, slender and exquisite, inlaid with gray skeletal dust that looks like smoke and dust.

The scythe blade is even more powerful, with skeletal serrations and skull-like patterns on it, looking like a terrifying weapon dug out of hell.

For a gentle girl like Ji Yao to hold this weapon, it actually had a bit of contrast cuteness.

"It's too valuable..." Ji Yao said somewhat incredulously.

Holding this weapon, she only felt that the material was extraordinary, more remarkable than any equipment she had ever seen.

Accepting such a valuable gift from Su Ming... is it really okay?

"If you refuse, I'll abandon you right now and let the Zhang family killers eat you!"

Su Ming said with a smile, his voice feigning terror.

Yet it had the feeling of scaring a child.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Yunqing also broke into laughter through her tears.
