The red palace dress on the woman was graceful and luxurious. At first glance, she was extremely young, but the temperament on her body was abnormally abrupt with her age, giving people a strong feeling.
After Little Head Mo took a glance, he immediately retracted his gaze. He knew that some people couldn't be looked at, just like some things, he couldn't touch.
He looked back at Nie Li and then looked around at the others. Little Head Mo walked out of the courtyard and came to the front of the woman in the palace dress. The two people looked at each other without saying anything, but the atmosphere was very harmonious.
"Senior, this junior would like to ask one thing." Little Head Mo opened his mouth for a long time. He cupped his hands and said, the smile on the corner of his mouth had disappeared without a trace.
"Seeing that you have helped me so much, I can consider answering." The woman in the palace dress's low and gentle but with a majestic voice sounded, full of magnetic charm, which made people intoxicated, and the majesty in it was full of a different flavor.
"Why did senior wait so long? With your strength, it's easy to take revenge." Little Head Mo took a breath and asked courageously.
"This is my agreement with her. I will not intervene. Now that the people who should be killed have been killed, and the people who should be killed are dead, I should take her away. "The woman in the palace dress took a deep look at Little Head Mo.
Little Head Mo quickly lowered his head. He didn't dare to look at the woman's eyes. It was a pair of deep and charming eyes, which would make people addicted. In fact, he still had a lot of questions, but he knew that there was no chance.
"Well, I'll take her away. Don't let the kid inside know about this. As for how to smooth things over, it's Wang Zhi and Fang Tong's business. "The woman in the palace dress obviously saw that Little Head Mo still had something to say.
"Senior, take care." As soon as Little Head Mo's voice fell, the woman in the palace dress had disappeared. Wang Zhi and Fang Tong, how did the two of them get together? But when he looked back at Nie Li, Little Head Mo stood in place blankly.

Nie Li opened his eyes and rubbed his swollen head. He tilted his head and looked at his surroundings. Everything was still familiar to him. There was a plain colored bed, a square table with a tea set, and a wooden box lying beside the pillow. Nie Li looked left and right, then suddenly sat up in shock.
Wasn't this his room? Why did he come here again? Nie Li carefully recalled the events from before. Although they were still vivid in his mind, he still felt that they were a little fake.
Was Chunmei dead? He didn't know because he had already lost his consciousness at that time. All that was left was the instinct to pursue power. Try to circulate your inner strength. This is the standard to prove whether that matter is true or not.
His boundless inner strength was like a wave, endless. It was much stronger than when he was in the Blood Transformation Realm. Originally, he thought that he would be happy after obtaining power, but now that he had obtained this power, his heart was full of bitterness.
This was a strength that had been exchanged with the lives of countless people, and he felt ashamed to accept it. Furthermore, this strength also proved that the scene that was like a dream was real. Chun Mei had died in his arms.
Thinking of this, Nie Li felt as if his entire body had collapsed. His essence, energy, and spirit seemed to have been sucked away by something. He looked forward in a daze, his eyes unfocused.
He wanted to take her away from this place when everything was over. But he didn't expect that she belonged here when she was born, and that she would return here when she died. Her feet were deeply rooted in this land.
But now it was over! She was dead. What about him? Where should he go? Thinking of this, Nie Li suddenly fell into a daze. This kind of confusion and confusion had always been there since he came to Cloud Sea City.
At first, he had only fled to this place for the wooden box. Then, he had slowly tangled with the various factions. Later, he had repaid Fang Tong's kindness. But now, he had repaid her. Where should he go tomorrow? Where should he go?
Nie Li didn't think that the world was too big. It was so big that he didn't know where to go. The door outside was pushed open, but Nie Li still didn't react. He just stared ahead.
Fang Tong walked into the room and looked at Nie Li's appearance. She felt bitter in her heart. She began to ask herself if she had done something wrong, but it had already happened. There was no turning back.
"Nie Li, are you feeling better?" Fang Tong walked over to the bed and sat down. But from the beginning until the end, Nie Li hadn't spared her a single glance.
"Nie Li, there's something I want to tell you. It's about Chun Mei, Zhang Huaiyu." Fang Tong hesitated for a moment before she spoke. She didn't want Nie Li to continue like this. Even if it would affect what happened in the future, she still wanted to tell him.
Nie Li's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he gazed at Fang Tong with anticipation. This also strengthened Fang Tong's thoughts. If she wanted him to pull himself together, then she had to tell him something.
"Zhang Huaiyu isn't dead. But it's impossible for you to see her with your current strength. " Fang Tong tossed a bomb at Nie Li. That was enough for Nie Li as long as she wasn't dead.
"Big Brother Fang, what exactly is going on? But I clearly saw her die in my arms." Nie Li hurriedly asked. Could it be that all those scenes were fake?
"There are too many things I can't say. I can only say that what I saw might not be true, and what I heard might not be false." Fang Tong didn't say too much. It wasn't that she didn't want to say it, but that she couldn't.
"When Zhang Qingyu was captured, there were people secretly observing. But they didn't expect Wang Huaili to poison her and feed her the Bone Eroding Heart Dissolving Pill. No one expected Wang Huaili to have such a thing in his hands. He probably got it from his brother."
"The Bone Eroding Heart Dissolving Pill is highly toxic. The person who takes this pill will suffer the pain of hundreds of poisons eroding their bones every few days. In the end, all the bones in their body will disappear, and they will turn into a pile of white flesh."
Thinking of such a way of dying, Nie Li couldn't help but feel a sense of teaching. "How to get rid of this poison?" Nie Li asked. He wanted to save Zhang Qingyu. No matter what, he had to try.
"I don't know the antidote for this Bone Eroding Heart Dissolving Pill." Fang Tong shook her head slightly. This extinguished the hope that had just been ignited in Nie Li's heart.
"Although I don't know, there must be someone who knows. Here, take this token. If you have a chance to go to the Song Capital in the future, go to Tianshu Pavilion. No one will help you. "Fang Tong took out a token from her arms and handed it to Nie Li.
The token was pitch-black and palm-sized. A building was engraved on one side, and four words were written on the other side: Patrol the World. Holding it in his hand, Nie Li's eyes widened. He had seen this thing before. Wang Zhi had the exact same one. However, there were some differences between them. Fang Tong's was black, while Wang Zhi's was silver.
"Does it look familiar? This is the patrol token. I used to be a patrol and stayed in the Cloud Sea City for several years. Later, due to health reasons, I retired. I have been hiding this thing in my body and have never used it. "Fang Tong smiled bitterly.
Fang Tong had something to say, but she didn't say it. Nie Li also didn't ask. Everyone had their own story and right to speak.
"Brother Fang, thank you." Nie Li placed the token to the side and solemnly expressed his gratitude to Fang Tong. The use of this token was huge. For Fang Tong to give it to him like this, he had no way of repaying her kindness.
"You are my brother. I have already prepared everything for you. Let's go! Go and see the world outside. That is where you belong. " Fang Tong patted Nie Li's shoulder. Perhaps he would stay in the Cloud Sea City for the rest of his life. Nie Li was his hope, his eyes to see the world for him.
"Okay." Nie Li's heart was full of gratitude. He then put on his clothes. He carried the wooden box on his back, picked up the Autumn Rain Saber and followed Fang Tong out.
When they arrived at the hall in the front yard, the room was full of people. Nie Li knew some of them, and some of them he didn't. There were two people sitting on the left and an unfamiliar man on the right.
"Let me introduce you. This is the City Lord, Zhang Shuqing." Fang Tong pointed to an elegant middle-aged man. He looked very kind, like a scholar.
This was the first time Nie Li saw Zhang Shuqing. Zhang Shuqing's expression was a little haggard. Maybe it was because he had been through a lot.
"This must be Young Hero Nie Li! Heroes really come from the young. "Zhang Shuqing saw Nie Li and said with a smile. However, that smile was a little forced.
Nie Li didn't care. He just responded and simply sat on the side. He looked at Wang Zhi and Mo Xiaotou who were sitting on the left. Because Fang Tong told him that Zhang Qingyu didn't die, his resentment towards these two people was not so strong.
Seeing that Nie Li had left, Mo Xiaotou awkwardly nodded his head. However, Nie Li didn't respond to him, so he didn't say anything. He had already expected this situation. On the contrary, Wang Zhi acted as if nothing had happened and treated Nie Li the same as before.
Nie Li looked at Fang Tong with a puzzled look. Why did she bring him here?
"Brother Fang, can I go down now?" Nie Li felt that the atmosphere in the hall was a little strange. At least he felt that he was sitting on pins and needles.
"Nie Li, you have the right to know this. I know that you are a little dissatisfied with Lord Wang, but this is also for the sake of the plan. If you want to hate him, take me with you. I also participated in this matter. "Fang Tong knew what Nie Li was thinking.
Nie Li didn't expect Fang Tong to say this. How could he hate Lord Wang?
Seeing that Nie Li was silent, Fang Tong knew that this matter wouldn't be mentioned for the time being. "Nie Li, I know that you are dissatisfied with me. However, I am a Patrol Inspector. There are too many things that I can't intervene in. It's normal that you don't understand now. You will understand in the future."
"Today, I am here to say goodbye to you. The matter in Cloud Sea City has come to an end. I will take Zhang Shuqing back to the Song Capital. As for the new City Lord, Lord Fang, you will be the new City Lord! "Wang Zhi obviously knew Fang Tong's identity and spoke very politely.
Zhang Shuqing looked at Fang Tong with gratification. There was no dissatisfaction or resentment. Nie Li was the only one who was staring blankly. Fang Tong had actually become the City Lord of Cloud Sea City.
"Nie Li, Lord Fang became the City Lord because of you. Back then, in order to save you from prison, he had to promise me something in the future. Now, he is going to fulfill his promise." Zhang Shuqing said.
Nie Li raised his head and looked at Fang Tong. Many words turned into gratitude.
"Alright, let's part here. Nie Li, you can open this thing after I leave. " Wang Zhi stood up and said goodbye to everyone. He was about to leave with Zhang Shuqing and Mo Xiaotou. Before he left, he handed a piece of paper to Nie Li.
