"Help!"
"Someone save me!"
The woman's cries for help were already very weak.
To make matters worse, the teleportation talisman in her hand had been knocked away by the surrounding Azure Poison Crabs.
So, at this moment, she was truly at a loss for tears.
Moreover, she had been poisoned by the Azure Poison Crabs and could no longer move.
If no one came to save her, she certainly wouldn't survive the night.
Despite facing such a desperate situation, she hadn't given up her last glimmer of hope.
As long as she had the strength, she wouldn't stop calling for help.
However, as time passed, her breathing became weaker and weaker, and she started to become delirious.
"Are you alright?"
"How are you?"
"Can you still move?"
Ye Fei followed the sound and finally discovered the woman lying on the ground, on the verge of death.
The woman lying on the ground tried with great effort to open her eyes to look at Ye Fei a few times, but in the end, she listlessly lowered her eyelids.
Fortunately, she had only fainted.
This allowed Ye Fei to breathe a small sigh of relief.
"Halt, you little crabs, move aside quickly!"
"Otherwise, I'll immediately kill you here!"
The four Azure Poison Crabs immediately brandished their long claws and advanced towards Ye Fei with a sideways gait.
"You're seeking death!"
"Then I'll break off your claws and let you taste the pain of injury too!"
For the Azure Poison Crabs, besides their venom, their sharp claws were their means of dealing with enemies.
Now, they were truly out of luck.
In just a few moments, Ye Fei broke off all their claws.
The Azure Poison Crabs, which had been so imposing, immediately cowered.
They all began to retreat.
Ye Fei had no intention of dwelling on them further and simply let them leave.
He scooped up the unconscious woman and then sped away from the scene.
Seeing the woman's breathing growing weaker and her lips turning an abnormal bluish-purple, Ye Fei dared not delay for a moment.
Finally, after a quarter of an hour, they returned to the cave behind the waterfall that Ye Fei had found earlier.
After setting her down, Ye Fei immediately removed her outer clothes, then placed his palm on her delicate back, and began to transfer his vital energy into her body, helping to suppress the toxins within her.
Because the toxins in her body were quite potent, Ye Fei had to exert tremendous effort this time to finally calm the agitated toxins within her.
Her lips, which had been dark blue, temporarily returned to their previous color.
Ye Fei had not expected the venom of the Azure Poison Crabs to be so potent.
According to his estimation, if she did not take an antidote pill within three days, her internal organs would rot, and she would ultimately face death.
Since he had started to save her, he would see it through to the end.
Having already intervened, there was no reason for him to watch her die.
After she finally fell into a peaceful sleep, Ye Fei relaxed. After a perfunctory tidying up in the outer room, he fell into a weary sleep.
The next day, when the sun was high in the sky, Ye Fei awoke to the aroma of food.
Smoke was rising from the kitchen, and the woman was busy at the stove.
"Young Master, you're awake?"
"I've prepared a sumptuous breakfast for you. Hurry and wash up, then we can eat."
Ye Fei complied readily, as he was already ravenous.
After he finished cleaning himself and arrived at the dining table, the woman had already finished preparing everything and was sitting there waiting for Ye Fei.
When Ye Fei sat down, she immediately raised her cup and said gratefully,
"Young Master, thank you for saving my life!"
"If you hadn't appeared last night, I'm afraid I would no longer have the chance to sit here!"
"So, I offer this cup of tea to you in place of wine!"
"Thank you again for saving my life!"
Then, the woman drank it all in one gulp, her eyes slightly teary.
Hearing her address him as "Young Master" repeatedly, Ye Fei quickly replied.
"Since we are fellow disciples, helping each other is our duty. You don't need to be so formal."
"My name is Ye Fei. Just call me Ye Fei."
As the woman was moved, she immediately exchanged names with Ye Fei.
Ye Fei then learned her name was An Ruoying.
Afterward, Ye Fei shifted the topic to her.
"I suppressed the injuries in your body last night, but if the toxins in your body are not cleared within three days, you will die suddenly!"
"So, the most urgent thing now is for us to find the medicinal herbs to refine an antidote pill."
"Coincidentally, there are abundant medicinal herbs here. We just need to find one Clear Void Grass, and I can refine a Clear Void Pill for you, which will resolve the toxins in your body."
Originally, the woman had intended to end the trial, crush the teleportation talisman, and return to her family to have the family's alchemists refine a pill for her.
However, after hearing Ye Fei's words, she decided to stay for a day. If Ye Fei could truly achieve it, then she wouldn't have to give up on the new disciple trial.
"Don't worry, I have a one hundred percent certainty that I can refine the pill to clear the toxins in your body."
Ye Fei guaranteed.
Then, he added with a troubled look.
"However, my only concern is that this area is too vast, so we will have to spend time searching."
Upon hearing this, An Ruoying's heart stirred, and she said,
"Ye Fei, I'm quite familiar with this place. Perhaps if you tell me about the growing environment of the medicinal herbs, I might be able to help a little."
Ye Fei's eyes lit up, and he immediately began to describe the characteristics of the Clear Void Grass to the woman.
"After hearing you say that, I know a place that is very suitable for the growth of Clear Void Grass."
"Without further ado, let's set off now!"
Upon receiving this news, An Ruoying could no longer suppress her excitement and immediately urged Ye Fei.
After a quick preparation, the two of them set off on the journey to find the Clear Void Grass.
It had to be said, the woman's movement technique was also quite formidable. The two of them chased each other and finally arrived at a low-lying valley after an hour and a half.
"Be careful, it's so quiet here. I'm worried it's a trap!"
Ye Fei quickly warned.
An Ruoying was also a cautious person, so her footsteps became much lighter.
The two finally walked into the depths of the valley. The temperature inside the valley had dropped significantly compared to the outside, and a strong wind blew from time to time.
Ye Fei opened his divine sense wide and directly guided them towards the right.
A moment later, Ye Fei couldn't help but cover his mouth in surprise!
Good heavens, before them was a large expanse of wild medicinal fields!
There were as many as several types of medicinal herbs here!
