Outside Of Time - Chapter 1135
1135 Experienced Ninth Grandpa
Facing the question from Chen Yangzi, Xu Qing originally wasn’t willing to say anything. However, when he looked at Zi Xuan’s ashen expression and recalled the arrangements of the alliance leader, as well as the expressions of the surrounding Fenghai County cultivators,
he calmly spoke.
“Sun of Dawn.”
The moment he said this, the expressions of everyone in the hall changed drastically. Regardless of whether it was Xue Lianzi, Zi Xuan, or the other Fenghai County cultivators who stayed behind to guard, they all gasped in disbelief.
“Sun of Dawn?”
“Wha… wha…”
An uproar broke out. Chen Yangzi’s shocked voice surpassed everything and echoed ear-piercingly.
“The Sun of Dawn?!”
“You, you, you…”
Chen Yangzi’s body trembled violently. At first, he didn’t believe it, but the destruction of his main body and the terrifying light and heat in the last scene made it impossible for him to deceive himself.
However, when he thought about how his main body was in the Seventh Prince’s imperial city…
He thought of the close to a million loyal subordinates of the Seventh Prince and the people who had sought refuge from the various sects in the large region. He thought of how they were troops the Seventh Prince was developing and were everything that the other party had prepared over the years…
Chen Yangzi trembled uncontrollably and his heart shook intensely. Goosebumps instantly erupted all over his body.
He could imagine that the explosion of the Sun of Dawn would definitely cover the entire Imperial City and the lethality it would bring would definitely be extremely terrifying.
Although the source of all this was Fenghai County, the flesh and blood vortex he opened had become an accomplice.
In fact… if someone said he was truly an accomplice, enduring humiliation and falsely joining the Seventh Prince to fulfill this great mission, many people would believe it.
All of this would make it impossible for him to gain a foothold in the human race, and King Tian Lan would definitely tear his soul apart.
More importantly, if the Seventh Prince died…
“How dare you lie! How could you have the Sun of Dawn!!”
Chen Yangzi screamed. In the end, he still lost his composure and looked at Xu Qing in disbelief. Terror rumbled in his body like an avalanche.
He spat out a mouthful of blood and staggered back. The bitterness in his heart was like a tide, drowning him.
He felt aggrieved and helpless.
All his schemes had succeeded and everything was going smoothly. However, the final outcome was something he had never imagined.
“It was just a probe. You… you actually threw out the Sun of Dawn!”
Chen Yangzi spat out another mouthful of blood.
In his mind, there was an unspeakable thought. He actually wanted to say, ‘Since you had the Sun of Dawn, couldn’t you just show it to me, let the Seventh Prince see it?’
After seeing it, who would dare to provoke them…
Why bother…
This thought made him feel even more bitter.
Under the collapse of his main body, his cultivation base also dropped greatly, falling from the third stage of Nihility. Even the second stage Nihility cultivation wasn’t stable. His entire aura was chaotic and he was between the first and second stage of Nihility.
Moreover, from the looks of it, it would probably be very difficult to maintain this state for too long.
Hence, he didn’t hesitate at all. At this moment, he immediately retreated, wanting to escape with his life. Even though he could still hold on and attack now, Xu Qing’s ruthlessness caused him to be afraid.
He was afraid from the depths of his soul.
He was worried that there was still the Sun of Dawn, but he was even more worried about… Qingqin in the sky and the Taboo magic treasure of Fenghai County.
After losing enough cultivation, he knew that today was the most critical moment of his life.
The instant he retreated, Xue Lianzi rushed out and Zi Xuan also walked over. The cawing sound of Qingqin rang out from the sky and a powerful aura descended as it swooped down.
In an instant, it appeared above the County Governor Residence. The pressure from it enveloped the surroundings and a monstrous cawing sound rang out.
Seeing this, Chen Yangzi could only suppress the fear in his heart. His expression distorted and he let out a heart-rending cry.
“Xu Qing, I was the one who arranged for the 10,000 people who escaped from the battlefield in Fenghai County to survive. I left a soul mark on their bodies. If I die, their bodies and souls will instantly be destroyed!”
“Even if you can undo it, it will still take time. If you seal me, I will definitely self-destruct my soul. When my soul is destroyed, they will be buried with me.”
“Let me go. This way, you’ll also have time to undo the mark. It will be worth it for you to spare my life for the 10,000 Fenghai cultivators!”
Chen Yangzi was indeed a cautious person and had extraordinary schemes. Even at this stage, he still had a backup plan. Now that he said this, Xue Lianzi and the others couldn’t help but pause.
Even Qingqin wasn’t confident that it could remove the soul mark while killing Chen Yangzi. It was just a large bird and removing the seal wasn’t its forte.
The situation seemed to be in a stalemate. However, Xu Qing’s expression was as usual. He didn’t bother with Chen Yangzi, who was struggling to survive. Instead, he lifted his head and looked at the sky.
Things that others couldn’t do might be easily resolved by ninth grandfather. Xu Qing was about to request him.
However, at this moment, his expression changed slightly and ninth grandfather’s voice rang out in his mind.
However, the other party’s words caused Xu Qing’s expression to instinctively turn strange.
He looked at Chen Yangzi, who was constantly retreating with disheveled hair and a crazed expression. He chose to obey.
He calmly spoke.
“Slap!”
As soon as Xu Qing finished speaking, the color of the sky changed and a storm brewed. Lightning intertwined in the sky and the world became blurry.
A vast force suddenly descended, causing the building to rumble and tremble. Everyone had shocked expressions. Chen Yangzi’s entire body trembled even more and his mind was about to collapse.
It was as though Xu Qing’s voice was the law, the rule, and the will of the world. The moment it was transmitted, the law followed. After this force arrived, it directly transformed into an invisible palm that ruthlessly slapped Chen Yangzi’s face.
With a boom, Chen Yangzi let out an even more miserable wail and was sent flying. His right side of the face turned into minced meat.
Everyone could sense the intense pain that Chen Yangzi was enduring at this moment.
He instinctively let out a blood-curdling scream and his mind went blank. He felt as though an unimaginable force had slammed into him like a mountain.
He couldn’t resist or dodge. Before he could react, Xu Qing’s words rang out again.
“Again!”
The laws landed and blasted out again. Chen Yangzi’s cry turned into a wail. The left side of his face was bombarded by this huge force and his head almost fell off. He no longer looked human.
His body was also slapped back from afar and landed in front of Xu Qing.
Blood gushed out of his mouth and neck continuously. The Golden Crow that manifested on his body also began to shatter in an extremely tragic manner.
“This use of the rules, you, you, you… What’s your cultivation base!!”
After landing on the ground, Chen Yangzi struggled and spoke weakly. His expression was filled with fear. He only had horror in his mind, and felt what he experienced now was even more shocking than when he heard about the Sun of Dawn.
This was because he knew that making the rules, the laws, and the will of the world bend to one’s will wasn’t something Nihility could do…
“Kneel.”
Xu Qing didn’t answer and calmly spoke.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yangzi wailed again. His legs collapsed and completely shattered. However, they didn’t disappear. Instead, they gathered again, as though they were born bent.
Hence, he could only kneel.
“Soul Accumulation…” Chen Yangzi’s heart exploded. He looked at Xu Qing and then at Zi Xuan, his eyes revealing a pleading look for the first time.
“Junior Sister, on account that we were once from the same sect and on account of Master, let me off this time…”
Zi Xuan fell silent and shook her head.
Chen Yangzi was in despair. His eyes were filled with madness and he was about to attempt mutual destruction.
Xu Qing calmly spoke.
“Deprivation!”
As his voice rang out, the world rumbled. His will formed a large hand that scooped up Chen Yangzi’s body. Chen Yangzi let out a blood-curdling scream and his body began to shatter, causing boundless spiritual energy to fly out.
His cultivation was deprived at this moment.
Only his physical body and soul were left.
“Flesh and blood turn into a candle and the soul turns into a wick.”
Xu Qing spoke again. In the blink of an eye, Chen Yangzi’s body distorted severely. He was squeezed and molded. In the end, he turned into a flesh candle!
The candle was lit, his soul became the wick, burning continuously.
Miserable cries that didn’t sound like a human’s rang out continuously as the candle burned.
Xu Qing lifted his hand and held the candle in his hand. He then turned and strode to Zi Xuan’s side, placing the candle in front of her.
“This is for you, a small gift.”
Xu Qing hesitated for a moment before speaking.
Zi Xuan looked at Xu Qing. She didn’t expect Xu Qing to do this. According to her understanding of Xu Qing, this didn’t seem to be the other party’s style but it didn’t matter. At this moment, an intense strange feeling rose in Zi Xuan’s heart.
She took the candle and her eyes shone intensely.
She was going to place this outside her cave abode in a lantern and let it continue to burn.
The hall was completely silent. Only the screams from the candle could still be heard.
Xue Lianzi’s eyes were filled with admiration. He looked at his only grand-disciple and felt incomparable admiration in his heart. He felt that Xu Qing was really good to understand what it meant to have a blood romance, reminiscent of his own youthful demeanor.
Under everyone’s gazes, Xu Qing raised his head and looked at the sky. He then cupped his fists and bowed.
Old Ninth’s cold voice rang out in his mind.
“Some enemies need to be killed with a single strike.”
“However, against enemies who provoke your women, if you kill them too quickly, it desire be less satisfying.”
“Therefore, you have to torture and cripple them bit by bit before turning them into a gift.”
“This is the way to move a woman’s heart. This old man has experience in this matter. Back then, I helped many people do this.”
Xu Qing had a strange expression. This was the first time he had heard ninth grandfather speak so much. He didn’t expect the usually cold ninth grandfather to be so experienced.
Hence, he could only nod. However, when he noticed the spirit in Zi Xuan’s eyes, Xu Qing perceived that what ninth grandfather uttered might be right.
However, he still perceived that the enemy should be killed with a single strike. It couldn’t be delayed.
“Only this once.” Xu Qing mumbled inwardly.
