Gu Liyan led Qingge deep into the forest and urgently called out, "Lord Divine Dragon! Gu Liyan has a favor to ask!"
Upon hearing Gu Liyan's plea for help, Jin Xu hurriedly appeared, and even Long Wei followed.
Seeing Gu Liyan holding Qingge, whose face was ashen and looking anxious, Long Wei couldn't help but ask with concern, "What's wrong with her?"
"Qingqing was poisoned, and I couldn't save her..." Gu Liyan lowered his head and looked at Qingge with a guilty expression.
Jin Xu glanced at Qing Ge a few times, sighed, and said, "Princess Qing Ge's poison comes from the Poison Heart Seed, which is simply incurable!"
Upon hearing Jin Xu's words, Gu Liyan's expression changed drastically. Looking at Qingge, who was barely breathing in his arms, he asked anxiously, "Is there really no way to save her?"
Jin Xu's face was gloomy. He seemed hesitant after thinking for a moment, but ultimately shook his head. "I'm sorry, there's no cure..."
Seeing Jin Xu's troubled expression, Gu Liyan gritted his teeth and knelt down in front of everyone. "Lord Divine Dragon, you said there's no cure, but there's still a way, right? Please, just tell me it's okay, and I'll think of a way!"
Seeing Gu Liyan kneel down, Qingge, nestled in her arms, tenderly raised her hand to stroke his face and softly called out, "Gu Liyan..."
Gu Liyan looked at Qingge with tender eyes, "Qingqing, don't worry, I will definitely save you!"
Seeing Gu Liyan kneel before him, Jin Xu hurriedly went up and helped him up, saying, "What are you doing? Get up, get up!"
Jin Xu was terrified. "Bai... Gu Liyan, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but if you really want to save her, it would be against the will of Heaven!"
Gu Liyan looked at Jin Xu with suspicion, "Is this against the natural order?"
“Everything in this world has a spirit, and there are also relationships of mutual generation and mutual restraint. Right now, you don’t have time to find something that can counteract this poisonous heart. And if you say you’re going to destroy it directly, I’m afraid all the elixirs and panaceas in this world will lose their effectiveness!” Jin Xu said helplessly. “In that case, the world will be out of balance!”
"What..." Gu Liyan looked down at Qingge, who looked exhausted and weak, with a bitter expression. "Is there... no other way?"
Qingge smiled slightly at Gu Liyan, "It's alright. As mortals, we will all die eventually. There's no need to disrupt the balance of this world because of me..."
Gu Liyan's eyes were red. "I'm sorry, Qingqing. I didn't protect you well." If he had been more careful, Qingge wouldn't have been ambushed.
Qingge shook her head, her voice very weak, "How can I blame you... I'm already very content to have met you..."
Jin Xu sighed, "Her time is running out. You should stay with her."
After saying that, Jin Xu stepped into the forest and disappeared. Long Wei watched Jin Xu leave, and then looked at Gu Liyan with a sad face and couldn't bear it. "Actually, there is another way to save her, but the Dragon God doesn't want you to know."
Gu Liyan's eyes lit up as she looked at Long Wei expectantly. "Really?"
Long Wei nodded. "The toxins of any poison can be relieved or suppressed as long as they are diluted. If the poison in her body can be diluted or transferred to another object, I think it should be able to alleviate the symptoms. As for whether it can be eradicated, I am not sure."
Gu Liyan's eyes lit up immediately. "That's right, how could I forget about this!" He had saved Qingge from the Seven-Day Death spell using the same method.
Qingge looked at Gu Liyan with a worried expression, "Gu Liyan..."
“I know what you want to say, Qingqing. Although I came here to unify this world, I only have the courage to live because of you! Without you, your life has no meaning. Perhaps you don’t know this yet…” Gu Liyan looked at Qingge with deep affection. “The little fox I told you about is me, and that little flower fairy is your past life!”
Qingge looked at Gu Liyan in surprise, never expecting that the protagonists of that story were actually them.
"You gave your life for me, and all I want to do is repay you this once!" Gu Liyan said, stroking Qingge's head. "Let me do something for you again in this life..."
Time and time again, Gu Liyan had become numb from all the sacrifices he had made, but compared to what Qingge had given her life for, what did this amount to?
"But..." Qingge's eyes welled up with tears, and she still wanted to refuse.
Gu Liyan spoke with a serious expression, "Qingqing, it wasn't easy for us to meet in this life. I don't know if I'll have the chance to meet you again in the next life! So, please give me a chance to protect you!"
Qingge choked up and didn't speak, but just nodded with tears welling up in her eyes.
Gu Liyan smiled slightly and lowered his head to kiss her lips. Qingge immediately felt the discomfort in her body disappear, while Gu Liyan's face grew increasingly pale…
Long Wei looked away from the two of them, then turned and left. The boy she once loved, the boy she once resented, was now the boy she wanted to forget—
The morning sun shone brightly, and outside the city gates, the Dragon God Temple was under construction. The Dragon God was revered as a spiritual deity and the guardian of the world, ensuring that evil was nipped in the bud by divine intervention.
"This wood is no good, it needs to be replaced! This ornament is too ugly, replace it! Red lanterns and candles are not allowed, replace them!" As the supervisor, Long Wei has fully devoted himself to building his new home. Even though he is covered in dragon scales, he still earns the respect and recognition of everyone.
Li Hao trained soldiers in the forest, and he changed from his former naivety to a serious and mature person. However, he could not hide his guilt every time he saw Long Wei.
Long Wei noticed Li Hao secretly watching her and said irritably, "What are you looking at! Haven't you ever seen a beautiful woman before?"
