Fearing the increased presence of demonic beasts at night, Ye Fei, like a sprinter in a hundred-meter dash, madly carried the woman into the nearby deep mountains.
It wasn't until the sun set that Ye Fei managed to find a dilapidated temple and immediately put down the woman on his shoulder.
Afterward, Ye Fei promptly took out a top-grade Restoration Pill from his Qiankun Bag and stuffed it directly into the woman's mouth.
Then, after the pill's medicinal properties dissolved, he patted the woman's shoulder and said,
"Wake up!"
After Ye Fei persistently patted the woman's shoulder several times, the woman finally blinked her eyes and woke up.
"You're finally awake."
Seeing that she had finally woken up, Ye Fei finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Did you save me?"
Although the woman had woken up, she was still somewhat weak, and her voice was very hoarse.
"That's right. Just as I was crossing this desert, I happened to hear your cry for help."
"Then I brought you across the desert and found this broken temple to stay in for the night."
"How are you?"
"I just gave you a Restoration Pill. How do you feel?"
Ye Fei asked again.
Upon hearing Ye Fei's words, the woman's eyes immediately widened in surprise.
The medicinal effects of the Restoration Pill were too astonishing.
She was a disciple of the Pill Sect and could refine Restoration Pills herself, but it was difficult to refine pills with such potent effects!
This was truly unbelievable to her!
"Thank you, young sir, for saving my life!"
"However, I would like to ask, which master refined the pill you just gave me?"
Although the woman's clothes were rumpled, her eyes were exceptionally bright, and her features were delicate. She was indeed a beautiful and refined lady.
Hearing her question, Ye Fei replied directly.
"I refined this pill myself!"
"What do you think?"
"How do you find the effect?"
Ye Fei's answer was beyond her imagination. She looked at Ye Fei suspiciously several times, not believing from the bottom of her heart that Ye Fei had refined the pill himself.
She simply thought Ye Fei was trying to show off in front of her.
"Young sir, please stop joking!"
"Although I am not a master alchemist, I started learning alchemy from a young age and successfully entered the Pill Sect after growing up, becoming a disciple of the Pill Sect."
"The pill you gave me earlier must have been a top-grade pill, wasn't it?"
The woman said with great certainty.
Ye Fei did not expect her to have such a formidable side and nodded.
"You're absolutely right about that!"
"The pills I refine are indeed top-grade pills!"
"The one you just took was also a top-grade pill!"
"However, you are mistaken about one thing: I really did refine this pill myself!"
"As for whether you believe it or not, that's your business."
Ye Fei did not want to dwell on this issue and changed the subject, asking,
"I have some doubts that require your clarification."
"Since hearing about your disappearance, our Martial Sect and Talisman Sect have each dispatched a team to search here."
"Therefore, I would like you to tell me everything that happened after entering this ancient ruin so that I can extract some useful clues."
"If we delay too long, we don't know if others will be in danger."
Ye Fei pursed his lips.
At the same time, he felt a slight worry in his heart.
When it came to serious matters, the woman immediately straightened her demeanor and began to narrate to Ye Fei.
It wasn't until the woman's mouth was almost dry that she finally explained all the major and minor events, including how she and her companions were separated, to Ye Fei.
"Young sir, I've told you everything I can. Do you have any thoughts?"
The woman asked expectantly.
"Don't rush, let me think a bit more!"
"You should eat something first!"
Ye Fei then took out a packet of dry rations from his Qiankun Bag and handed it to the woman.
As for himself, he continued to ponder deeply.
Finally, just as the woman was finishing her food, Ye Fei suddenly stood up, slapping his thigh and exclaiming,
"I know!"
"So that's how it is!"
The woman also excitedly grabbed Ye Fei's clothes and quickly asked,
"Young sir, have you found a clue?"
Ye Fei smiled slightly and nodded.
"I already know where they will be teleported!"
"Tomorrow morning, we'll set off immediately!"
"It's getting late, let's get some rest."
Seeing Ye Fei's confidence, the woman could only choose to believe him.
Before going to sleep, the two exchanged names.
Ye Fei then learned that the woman's name was Yang Si, a third-year student of the Pill Sect.
Of course, what shocked him even more was Yang Si's realization that Ye Fei was a freshman from the Martial Sect!
Judging by Ye Fei's demeanor and words, he certainly didn't seem like a freshman!
However, she also knew that Ye Fei had no reason to deceive her, so after her initial shock, she calmed down.
Since the dilapidated temple was quite spacious, they each occupied a room.
Exhausted from a day of rushing, Ye Fei was already weary, and with so many matters to resolve ahead, he simply lay down and fell asleep.
However, not long after he fell asleep, he heard a hurried sound of footsteps coming from Yang Si's room.
"Ye Fei, Ye Fei, wake up quickly!"
"Something big has happened!"
Danger was imminent, and Yang Si no longer cared about the distinction between men and women. She quickly put on her clothes and rushed into Ye Fei's room.
Ye Fei, who had been sleeping soundly, was suddenly disturbed and felt a surge of inexplicable anger. He frowned and said,
"Tell me first, what exactly is going on?"
Yang Si immediately moved closer to Ye Fei and explained all her suspicions.
"You're saying we've been tracked by a demonic beast called the Purple Blood Spider?"
"And that the outside is already surrounded by them?"
Ye Fei had already opened his eyes and said.
"That's right. I vaguely heard a strange sound in my sleep earlier. I felt uneasy, so I got up to look outside. And just as I was about to turn back, I spotted a Purple Blood Spider pacing around."
"Moreover, Purple Blood Spiders always appear in groups, which is why I am so worried."
Yang Si said with a worried expression.
Honestly, she didn't know what to do at this moment.
Their cultivation was not high, and they didn't know how to break through the encirclement.
"Don't worry, I'll take a look at the entrance to see what's going on."
"You wait here. I suspect they are tracking your scent."
"So it should be relatively safe for me to go out."
After giving his instructions, Ye Fei immediately got up, put on his outer coat, and walked briskly to the entrance of the dilapidated temple.
