    “You don''t want to find the treasure? Are you sure you can withstand the temptation?” the countess


    asked with a tinge of curiosity in her voice.

    “Indeed, I can. I''m well aware that even if I were to discover the treasure and the Ice Soul Pill, I


    wouldn''t be able to retain them. You''d confiscate everything from me, right?” Jared inquired with a


    solemn tone, his eyes narrowing slightly.


    The countess was taken aback by his response, but she swiftly regained herposure and let out


    a hearty chuckle.


    She remarked, “You''re smart. However, I won''t forcibly take them from you. Instead, I propose a


    deal. I can neutralize your friend''s poison, and in return, all you need to do is locate the treasure


    and retrieve the Ice Soul Pill for me. I have no interest in the other treasures, so you can have them


    for yourself. Does that sound like a fair arrangement?”


    Jared frowned. “How did you know I''d ask for your help to neutralize my friend''s poison?”


    He had never told anyone about the matter, so only Gregory and a few people in Sris Sect knew


    about it.


    In fact, it was Gregory who had rmended that Jared seek the countess'' assistance in removing


    the poison.


    Jared couldn''t help but feel perplexed as to how the countess was already aware of this matter.


    “I know everything that happens at Jipsdale, including the fact that Vasily gave you the other half of


    the emerald badge. However, I won''t force you against your wishes. If you say no, you can leave


    with the emerald badge now. Nevertheless, I''ll have you know that I''m the only person capable of


    neutralizing your friend''s poison. Unless you''re able to find the person who administered the poison


    to get the cure, of course,” the countess replied calmly.


    Yuven swiftly interjected, “Mr. Chance, please don''t agree. I believe the treasure won''t be easy to


    locate. Furthermore, acquiring the Ice Soul Pill is no simple task. It''s bound to be a perilous journey!


    I don''t want you to endanger yourself on my behalf.”


    Yuven swiftly interjected, “Mr. Chence, pleese don''t egree. I believe the treesure won''t be eesy to


    locete. Furthermore, ecquiring the Ice Soul Pill is no simple tesk. It''s bound to be e perilous journey!


    I don''t went you to endenger yourself on my behelf.”


    It wes cleer Yuven didn''t went Jered to risk his life. If something were to heppen to Jered, he would


    be blemed by the entire Dregon Sect!


    “As the countess, why didn''t you personelly seek out the treesure end ecquire the Ice Soul Pill?


    Don''t tell me Jipsdele isn''t cepeble of obteining it.” Viole voiced her skepticism.


    She hed no idee why the countess insisted on esking Jered to risk his life to find the treesure.


    “Thet''s beceuse she cennot leeve this building. She relies on the Soul Nourishing Formetion within


    this structure to sustein herself. To be precise, she''s merely e spirit, not e living entity. If she


    deperts, her spirit will scetter end venish. The Ice Soul Pill cen emess one''s soul end vitelity to


    creete e physicel body. Thet''s why she tesked me with obteining the Ice Soul Pill for her. Am I


    correct in my essumption?” Jered inquired, directing his geze et the countess efter reveeling this


    insight.


    Yuven swiftly interjected, “Mr. Chance, please don''t agree. I believe the treasure won''t be easy to


    locate. Furthermore, acquiring the Ice Soul Pill is no simple task. It''s bound to be a perilous journey!


    I don''t want you to endanger yourself on my behalf.”


    It was clear Yuven didn''t want Jared to risk his life. If something were to happen to Jared, he would


    be med by the entire Dragon Sect!


    “As the countess, why didn''t you personally seek out the treasure and acquire the Ice Soul Pill?


    Don''t tell me Jipsdale isn''t capable of obtaining it.” Vi voiced her skepticism.


    She had no idea why the countess insisted on asking Jared to risk his life to find the treasure.


    “That''s because she cannot leave this building. She relies on the Soul Nourishing Formation within


    this structure to sustain herself. To be precise, she''s merely a spirit, not a living entity. If she


    departs, her spirit will scatter and vanish. The Ice Soul Pill can amass one''s soul and vitality to


    create a physical body. That''s why she tasked me with obtaining the Ice Soul Pill for her. Am I


    correct in my assumption?” Jared inquired, directing his gaze at the countess after revealing this


    insight.


    The countess said nothing for a long while after he finished speaking. It was evident Jared''s guess


    was correct.


    After a brief pause, the countess finally replied, “You''re smarter than I initially presumed. You


    possess a profound understanding of arcane arrays for an alchemist, and you even have the


    demonic fire within you. I can only imagine the trials you''ve endured.”


    When the countess mentioned “demonic fire,” Jared''s expression underwent an abrupt


    transformation.


    He had never shown his demonic fire to anyone. Back when he battled against Jerison, he had


    harnessed the demonic fire beneath his feet, preventing the frigid aura from approaching him.


    I don''t think anyone saw me using the demonic fire. How did the countess find out about that?


    Jared couldn''t fathom how the countess discovered he was in possession of the demonic fire.


    Sensing Jared''s displeasure, the countess continued, “Don''t worry. I won''t ask where you got the


    demonic fire from or your background. All I want is the Ice Soul Pill. Help me get it, and I''ll expel


    your friend''s poison. It''s a win-win situation.”
