"I...I didn't expect...this poison...to be so potent..."
The old man took several difficult breaths before finally placing the jade pendant slowly into Junran's hand. "This...this is my granddaughter. I ask for nothing else, I only hope you can save her life..."
"Save him?"
Upon hearing this, Junran was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I can't bring someone back to life."
No... I don't need you...
The old man took several deep breaths, catching his breath for a long time before continuing, "There is... a ninth-grade elixir... that can... rebuild the physical body and bring the dead back to life. You... saving her... will surely bring you a great reward when you return to your family..."
"You...you mean..."
Hearing this, Junran finally understood that the old man possessed a pill that could bring people back to life and rebuild their physical bodies simply by using their souls!
Junran began to tremble slightly, unable to stop herself from doing so.
If... if what the old man said is true, then, can this pill also be given to Jun Yu?
"yes…"
The old man was on his deathbed and unaware of Jun Ran's thoughts. He still managed to say with difficulty, "The ring... the demon crystal... restores complete soul power... taking it... it helps you grow from infancy... but... initially your intelligence might lag a bit... later... it will get better... you... you're bleeding... bleeding... um..."
The old man held Junran's hand tightly, but before he could finish speaking, his eyes widened and he died.
The next second, Junran saw a golden orb covered in black threads fly out of the old man's body and then instantly vanish into nothingness.
"His primordial spirit... is gone..."
Upon seeing this, Junran was startled and quickly released the old man's body. Feeling the jade pendant in his hand, he was stunned and stared at it blankly.
"He...he just made me swear a blood oath to save his granddaughter, didn't he? But..."
Thinking of this, Junran reached out and grasped the Soul Nourishing Bottle around his neck.
However, he did not swear a blood oath, and that pill was equally important to Jun Yu!
Oh, right, pills!
To make it easier for Junran to use the storage ring, the old man had erased the mark of ownership on it before he died, so Junran easily became the owner of the ring.
Soon, Junran took out the pill box the old man had mentioned, along with an instruction manual explaining how to use it.
Junran's hands trembled as she looked at what she held in her hands.
He took a deep breath and removed the Soul Nourishing Bottle from his neck, then hesitated as he looked at the jade pendant and the bottle.
What should he do?
The instruction manual stated that as long as the soul exists intact, it can allow a person to be reborn, but it must start from infancy.
Although Jun Yu's soul is not yet complete, with the help of the demon crystal left behind by the old man, his soul will soon be restored to its full state.
However, it is obvious from the materials in front of us that both the demon crystals and the pills are for a single person.
Although the old man said that he would receive compensation if he took his granddaughter back to his family, he didn't even know where he was or how to get out. By the time he found the exit, when would that be?
Simply put, whether we can get out of here alive is still unknown.
So, in a state where he himself is "like a clay bodhisattva crossing a river, barely able to save himself," how could he possibly have the mindset to protect a complete stranger?
But if this person is Jun Yu, then it's a completely different story!
"Who should it be given to?"
Junran already had a very clear answer in her heart.
