"I could save her, but it requires extremely precious materials..."

"I'm afraid you, little brother, can't take them out."

Ye Zi's appearance was stunningly beautiful, a natural beauty.

Every smile and frown of hers was charming, easily stirring a man's heartstrings.

It seemed she was very good at getting her purpose by manipulating men.

But Su Ming was like an iron man from beginning to end; in his eyes, there was only Ji Yao.

"What materials?" he asked.

"Diamond lower-tier rare materials that only drop from mid-to-high-tier undead... Bone Undead Soul Dust."

Ye Zi narrowed her eyes and said coldly.

Su Ming's eyes turned cold upon hearing this.

Once, in a dungeon, he killed an undead and dropped a material with a very similar name, called 【Elite Undead Soul Dust】.

After sublimation, it became the diamond top-tier alchemy material 【Breathless Dead Soul】.

He had never used this thing and kept it in his personal space.

"Little brother, don't think about it; that thing is priceless and has no market; even if you kill a thousand undead, it's unlikely to drop."

"By the time you farm it out, she will have already..."

Before she finished speaking, Su Ming took out a dark silver transparent gray soul from his personal space.

The material was at the boundary between powder and soul, looking eerie and deep, seemingly still trembling faintly.

Ye Zi's eyes shook, and her brows furrowed.

"Breathless Dead Soul? Diamond top-tier alchemy material?"

A flash of brilliance crossed her eyes.

Even she, who was mature and steady, couldn't help but be surprised.

She had been looking for this thing!

This was far more advanced than the 【Bone Undead Soul Dust】 she mentioned.

The effect was also countless times stronger!

"Using this, can it be replaced?" Su Ming held this thing in front of Ye Zi and asked.

"More than just can?"

She stepped forward, not caring at all about her fair long legs showing from her skirt.

"This Breathless Dead Soul, only half is needed to be enough to prepare a potion to save her life."

"I only need eight hours to make it."

Su Ming's heart suddenly heated up...

Finally, there was a way.

"Then please save her; she is a very important person to me."

Su Ming's speech also became polite.

Ye Zi smiled beautifully upon hearing this.

It seems the position... has turned from defense to offense.

"Good, but I have two conditions."

"First, the remaining Breathless Dead Soul belongs to me."

"Second, from now on, you must call me Sister Ye," she leaned in and said with a smile.

Su Ming hesitated for a moment upon hearing this.

This woman is really taking advantage of him time and time again...

But there's no way now; he can only let her be arrogant.

"Alright, Sister Ye..." Su Ming sighed.

Afterward, Ye Zi took Su Ming and Ji Yao to the standard refuge room.

Su Ming gently placed Ji Yao on the bed and then dripped a drop of fresh orange blood into her mouth.

Ji Yao was covered in purple veins, her whole body was icy cold, her expression was painful, and she was unconscious.

She kept muttering something in her mouth.

"Ji Yao, rest assured, I will definitely make you wake up," Su Ming secretly said in his heart.

If he couldn't save her now, then he would wait ten years, a hundred years! When the Reverse Dao God Ring was fully recharged again, Su Ming would rather be reborn again to save her.

This was his determination.

Before handing the Breathless Dead Soul to Ye Zi, he checked the information of this thing one last time.

【Breathless Dead Soul · Alchemy Material (Diamond Top-Tier)】

【Possesses powerful power; when mixed into a potion, it can provide a temporary immunity to death effect for 0.1~1 seconds. If swallowed directly without preparation, it will result in immediate death!】

Using it directly will kill you; this is an excellent suicide tool...

"This thing is so dangerous; are you sure you can save her?" Su Ming's brows furrowed, full of suspicion.

Ye Zi grabbed the Breathless Dead Soul, played with it in her hand, and had a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Hehe, the nature of materials is not immutable; as long as it is handed over to a sufficiently experienced alchemist and supplemented with compatible materials, it can produce completely different magical effects."

"Rest assured, I will definitely be able to save her."

She gave her guarantee.

"What are the odds?"

Su Ming's brows furrowed, insisting on asking.

There is no such thing as certainty in the world; when someone says certainty, it's mostly fake.

Ye Zi's smile slowly faded, and her expression gradually became serious.

She saw that this girl was a very important person to Su Ming.

If she lied to him, this young man... might take revenge like a madman.

The whole world is hunting her down, so one more person doesn't make a difference.

However, she has walked the world for many years, relying not on poison or barriers, but on her way of dealing with people.
