Gai Nie looked at Wei Zhuang, not afraid that he was lying. After all, that half of the sect leader's token was quite important to him, and he probably wouldn't use it to deceive him. Besides, he wasn't afraid of him. If Wei Zhuang didn't return Rong'er to him, he would just continue fighting him. After thinking all this, he also walked towards Wei Zhuang's direction.

At this moment, both Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang were wondering what would happen if the other went back on their word. They each had different ideas and their own thoughts. But time was of the essence for them to devise a solution.

The two drew closer and closer, and after a few steps, they were less than a foot apart. Both were tense, afraid the other might change their mind. But their worries were clearly unnecessary.

Wei Zhuang spoke a few words to his subordinates, and after a while, Duanmu Rong appeared in front of Gai Nie. Gai Nie looked at Duanmu Rong, and Duanmu Rong also looked at Gai Nie, her eyes full of tenderness.

It was as if he were saying, "Even if you don't come to save me, even if you don't use the Sect Leader's Token to exchange for me, I won't blame you, because I know you love me." Gai Nie couldn't wait any longer. He tossed half of the Sect Leader's Token to Wei Zhuang.

Wei Zhuang watched the half of the sect leader's token flutter in the air, cursing Gai Nie inwardly; how cunning! Even after he had the item in his hand, Wei Zhuang remained vigilant.

Wei Zhuang reached out and grasped the object. He held it tightly in his hand, then looked up at the elder who was looking at Gai Nie, and after a while...

Wei Zhuang ordered his men to release Duanmu Rong. As soon as Duanmu Rong was untied, Gai Nie rushed over and hugged her tightly.

Duanmu Rong looked at Gai Nie, a smile blooming on her face. She touched Gai Nie's somewhat weathered face. Suddenly, she felt a pang of heartache, but she didn't show it on her face. She didn't want Gai Nie to worry, nor did she want him to continue to be out there for her sake.

Both of them were very happy, at least they were not seriously injured or in danger, and they had managed to rescue Duanmu Rong without any serious incident.

Wei Zhuang examined the object in his hand closely, overjoyed. He said to Gai Nie, "You're willing to go to such lengths for a woman, even giving away this thing. How foolish! This sect leader's token is a waste to keep in your phone. You should have given it to me a long time ago."

Gai Nie said, "Compared to your own happiness, what's so important about this cold half-piece of wood? Wei Zhuang, you'll never understand this feeling; you'll always be alone." Wei Zhuang laughed heartily, "I'm fine this way. I don't need any love; it's all bullshit. I'll just be myself and love myself."

“You’re hopeless,” Gai Nie said to Wei Zhuang. Wei Zhuang thought for a moment, then said to Gai Nie, “How about this? Since we can never determine a winner, continuing to fight is just a waste of time. We don’t have much time left. Let’s reconcile here and wipe the slate clean.”

Gai Nie said, "Fine, anyway, I have nothing left for you to worry about. Let's end this here, and both of us can live in peace." After saying this, Gai Nie stopped paying attention to Wei Zhuang and turned his gaze to Duanmu Rong. His Rong'er. Rong'er was also looking at Gai Nie.

Both of them had a lot to say to each other, but this place was not the right place to say such things. Gai Nie said to Rong'er, "Let's go home. There's nothing left for me to stay here any longer." Duanmu Rong said to Gai Nie, "Brother Nie, you're right. We shouldn't stay here any longer."

Both of them knew the truth without prior arrangement. So Gai Nie pulled Duanmu Rong's hand and started to walk outside. At this moment, Chi Lian, who had been hiding in the shadows, watched Duanmu Rong and Gai Nie walk away, her heart filled with anxiety. "Are we really just going to let Gai Nie go like this? Does our boss even know that Gai Nie's existence is a bad thing? Are we just going to let him go like this? Now is the best opportunity to kill him!"

Thinking this, Chi Lian made up her mind. She couldn't let Gai Nie leave like this; she had to do something. Her boss would definitely regret it later. To prevent him from regretting it, she had to act. With a flick of her wrist, a poisoned dart appeared in her hand. The dart was small, so small that even Gai Nie couldn't see it. She believed that even someone as strong as Gai Nie couldn't dodge it.

Chi Lian aimed her poisoned dart at Gai Nie. With a silent, forceful movement, she launched the dart. At that moment, Duanmu Rong didn't think of anything else. Her only thought was to prevent Gai Nie from being hit. So, with a sudden burst of strength, she pushed Gai Nie away just as the dart was about to strike him.

Gai Nie watched as Rong'er pushed him away, then she was struck by a poisoned dart and vomited a mouthful of poisoned blood, which landed on Gai Nie. Gai Nie was terrified; it was even more frightening than his fight with Wei Zhuang. He immediately pulled Rong'er into his arms and glared at Wei Zhuang. Wei Zhuang saw deep hatred in her eyes.

Wei Zhuang was equally helpless. He could only glare at Chi Lian, who was also looking at him. The two of them stared at each other silently, both seeing unwavering resolve in each other's eyes. Wei Zhuang could only look apologetically at Gai Nie. Gai Nie didn't look at Wei Zhuang again; he picked up Duanmu Rong and walked outside, like a demon god, unstoppable.

Chapter 1219 Gai Nie's Thoughts

"Uh..." Gai Nie quickly pondered for a moment, then another thought came to mind. Gai Nie immediately wondered: Oh dear, what is Rong'er thinking? But before Gai Nie could finish his thought, Rong'er, realizing what was going on, immediately left Gai Nie's sight.

"Um, well, I'm sorry, Rong'er, I... I was a little impolite." He had just realized that the beauty had left his sight and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. But now he remembered his relationship with Rong'er and realized that his thoughts seemed a bit impolite. So he scratched his head very embarrassedly, looking quite simple and honest.

"I, I," Rong'er, who had just left Gai Nie, was initially a little uneasy, so she quickly moved to another place. But now, hearing Gai Nie's very shy expression, all her unease vanished instantly. She was left with the same feeling as Gai Nie opposite her—embarrassment and shyness.

"Gai Nie, I, thank you for caring about me, I..." Rong'er was very embarrassed to speak to Gai Nie, whom she had just hugged. But Gai Nie had only done that because he cared about her, so in addition to feeling shy and embarrassed, Rong'er also felt grateful to Gai Nie.

"I, I, well, don't be so polite." Gai Nie felt a little shy when he heard what Rong'er said to him, and just kept scratching his head, looking embarrassed. "Besides, besides, I, I care about you, and it's only right that I..." Gai Nie said the last words almost with his head down, and he didn't know if Rong'er on the other side heard him.

"I, I," the person opposite seemed to have heard Gai Nie's soft whisper, and her whole face immediately turned red, like a ripe red tomato, exceptionally delicate and lovely. "I, I," Rong'er stammered for a while, but still couldn't come up with anything.

"I, Gai Nie, learned from Xie Xue, you, care about me..." As Rong'er spoke, she became more and more embarrassed, and her voice gradually lowered until it was almost inaudible. Only her trembling lips revealed that she was speaking.

When Rong'er realized that Gai Nie cared deeply about her, a sweet feeling flashed through her mind. Before Gai Nie could even respond, to his surprise, Rong'er continued speaking: "Gai Nie, I...I have a question for you. Will you...answer me honestly?"

The tone at the end was slightly tentative, as if unsure whether Gai Nie would answer his question honestly. After listening, Gai Nie on the other end even began to doubt his own ears. Because, the person opposite him was actually speaking to him? And saying he wanted to ask him a question? This was truly unbelievable.

Looking at Gai Nie's reaction, Rong'er found that he didn't show any obvious reaction at all, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. She had been particularly touched by Gai Nie's special concern for her.

But seeing Gai Nie's reaction now, Rong'er suddenly realized that Gai Nie's feelings for her might not be what she had imagined. She had just overthought things, misunderstood, and felt a sense of disappointment.

At this moment, Gai Nie gently raised his head and saw Rong'er biting her teeth, looking pitiful. Gai Nie immediately felt sorry for her. Just as he was about to ask Rong'er what was wrong, she spoke first. "Gai Nie, I... I have a question for you, and you must answer me honestly." He still felt it was necessary to ask.

"Questions? Okay, ask away, and I'll answer honestly." At first, Gai Nie thought he had misheard, but then he agreed to Rong'er's request. It was just about answering questions honestly, right? Based on his feelings for Rong'er, he would have done it even if she hadn't asked, let alone since she had asked him to.

But seeing Gai Nie's reaction now, Rong'er suddenly realized that Gai Nie's feelings for her might not be what she had imagined. She had just overthought things, misunderstood, and felt a sense of disappointment.

At this moment, Gai Nie gently raised his head and saw Rong'er biting her teeth, looking pitiful. Gai Nie immediately felt sorry for her. Just as he was about to ask Rong'er what was wrong, she spoke first. "Gai Nie, I... I have a question for you, and you must answer me honestly." He still felt it was necessary to ask.

"Questions? Okay, ask away, and I'll answer honestly." At first, Gai Nie thought he had misheard, but then he agreed to Rong'er's request. It was just about answering questions honestly, right? Based on his feelings for Rong'er, he would have done it even if she hadn't asked, let alone since she had asked him to.

“Alright, since that’s the case,” Rong’er breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Gai Nie’s answer and promise. Then, staring intently at Gai Nie, she uttered a few words: “Gai Nie, if I die one day, will you remember me for the rest of your life and never forget me?” After asking the question, she quickly lowered her head, embarrassed.

"What?" Gai Nie was still in a daze and didn't react. But after a while, Gai Nie realized what Rong'er was talking about, so he quickly replied, "Yes, I will definitely remember you and never forget you!" Then, Gai Nie immediately changed the subject, and Rong'er's reaction was drawn back.

“But, Rong’er, there’s one thing I want to promise you,” Gai Nie paused deliberately, but when he saw that no one else was making any obvious reaction, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of frustration.

But then, Gai Nie loudly addressed Rong'er, who was standing opposite him, saying, "Rong'er, listen to me. I, Gai Nie, will remember you forever after you die. But if you win, it will truly be a very glorious thing." Gai Nie felt very good about himself as he said these words.

“But Rong’er, listen to me. I, Gai Nie, will never give you the chance to die. No matter when or where, I will always be by your side. And the only thing you need to do is not to get hurt, and not to make the people who care about you sad and cry.” Gai Nie’s voice choked with emotion.

With a "whoosh," Gai Nie immediately drove off to find Chi Lian. Soon, Gai Nie brought Chi Lian back to everyone's amusement. "Zheng!" The feeling of the silver sword being drawn was truly spectacular. "Chi Lian, hand over the antidote. You'd better not keep me waiting too long."

As they were talking, Chi Lian, who was standing in front of Gai Nie, smiled. Then, Gai Nie understood the reason.

Because, when Gai Nie saw that Brother Hu on the other side was acting a bit arrogantly, our group gathered. However, Gai Nie arrived with news that, for some reason, he had actually used his acupuncture to completely remove the poison from Ji Biao's body. Let's just leave that question behind.

Chapter 1221 Dragon King Sacrifice

"Actually, I had already memorized all her antidote methods on the way here," Rong'er said in her weak voice.

The reason Rong'er waited until now to get rid of the poison was simply because she wanted to know Gai Nie's true feelings for her.

Although Gai Nie takes good care of her, he can also be indifferent at times. She doesn't know if Gai Nie is aware of her feelings for him, as if he can't see them at all.

At this moment, Gai Nie suddenly stood up and said, "Although Rong'er is fine now, there is still one thing that is not over!" Gai Nie deliberately emphasized his tone.

Wei Zhuang looked at Gai Nie and asked, "What is it?"

Gai Nie stared at Chi Lian and said, "Of course it's about her hurting Rong'er." Gai Nie pointed at Chi Lian, his eyes blazing with anger; his gaze seemed capable of killing Chi Lian.

"Then what do you want to do?" Wei Zhuang asked Gai Nie.

Gai Nie looked at Chi Lian and said, "Kill her!" Gai Nie knew that Wei Zhuang would not let him kill Chi Lian, but Gai Nie still said it because he was filled with anger.

“Impossible, you can’t kill her,” Wei Zhuang said to Gai Nie.

At this moment, Chi Lian was also filled with fear, afraid that Gai Nie would really kill her. But when she saw Wei Zhuang protecting her, she was no longer afraid. However, she was still afraid that Gai Nie would kill her at all costs.

Gai Nie persisted, asking, "Then how do you plan to settle this?"

“Everything else is negotiable, but we can’t kill her,” Wei Zhuang said firmly.

“Alright then, break one of her legs,” Gai Nie said.

"Gai Nie, how dare you speak like that?" Chi Lian stepped forward, pointing at Gai Nie and shouting. Chi Lian also admired Wei Zhuang and didn't want him to lose to Gai Nie.

When Chi Lian stood up and said those words, she was terrified. She didn't know if Wei Zhuang would say anything to her, but to her utter surprise, Wei Zhuang actually did say something to her, and not just in a normal way, but in a furious way.

Wei Zhuang grabbed Chi Lian and pulled her back, roaring at her, "You have no right to speak here! Get back here!"

Chi Lian looked at Wei Zhuang with a puzzled expression, then obediently stood back.

Perhaps Chi Lian sensed that Wei Zhuang was angry, which is why she obediently stood back.

“That’s impossible. Is there anything else?” Wei Zhuang asked.

Gai Nie snorted coldly, knowing that he couldn't take Chi Lian right now.

Just then, Rong'er said, "Gai Nie, let's forget it, I'm fine." Actually, Rong'er didn't want Gai Nie to fight Wei Zhuang for her sake, so she told Gai Nie to let it go.

Although Rong'er said she would not pursue the matter further, Gai Nie was still furious.

However, Gai Nie had no choice but to say, "Although Rong'er said to let it go, it doesn't mean I'm going to pursue it. Tell her to be careful in the future."

"Thank you, Rong'er, for your magnanimity," Wei Zhuang said, bowing slightly to Rong'er. At this moment, Gai Nie turned around and helped Rong'er up, asking, "Rong'er, are you alright?"

"I'm fine," Rong'er said. Although Rong'er's poison had been cured, she was still very weak and unable to walk.

Gai Nie glanced at Wei Zhuang and Chi Lian, thought for a moment, and then said to Rong'er, "I'll carry you on my back!"

Chapter 1222 The Predecessor of the Kingdom of Fiore: The Dragon King Festival Four Hundred Years Ago

Rong'er looked at Gai Nie and said, "No need, I can manage on my own, you don't need to carry me." Before Rong'er could finish speaking, Gai Nie had already carried her on his back.

Although Rong'er said she didn't need Gai Nie to carry her, she was actually very happy inside. After all, women are often hypocritical.

Wei Zhuang and Chi Lian watched Gai Nie and Rong'er leave.

After Gai Nie carried Rong'er away, Chi Lian looked at Wei Zhuang and asked, "Why are you so good to Rong'er? Do you like her?"

Wei Zhuang retorted, "It's none of your business!" With that, Wei Zhuang left. Chi Lian watched Wei Zhuang.

……

Gai Nie carried Rong'er on his back and walked towards the Zhongnan Villa.

As they walked, Rong'er called out, "Gai Nie, Gai Nie." Gai Nie heard her and stopped.

"Rong'er, what's wrong?" Gai Nie asked. "Put me down, put me down."

Gai Nie heard this but didn't put Rong'er down; he continued walking towards the Zhongnan Villa...
