Outside Of Time

764 Deputy Governor, Please Correct! (1)
During these more than twenty days, while convincing himself with countless reasons, Xu Qing couldn’t help but ponder another possible outcome.

Hence, he had always understood that once he stepped out, the calamity that awaited him would roughly be divided into three possibilities.

The first possibility was that he would be killed instantly after he appeared. Although this possibility existed, it wasn’t high.

After all, everyone would be looking. Although he went against them, it was an objection and not causing trouble.

Hence, there was a second possibility, and that was to be convicted and imprisoned. From then on, his life and death would depend on a single thought of others.

As for the third possibility, it was that everything would go smoothly but there would be huge hidden dangers in the future, attracting endless calamities.

Of course, the prerequisite was that he failed.

Hence, the first thing Xu Qing mentioned when he walked out was his 100,000 ft light in the Emperor’s Heart Inquisition. This was to resolve the first possibility. As for the appearance and protection of the Deputy Palace Master and the others later, it wasn’t within his expectations.

This allowed him to successfully pass the first step. After that, from the moment he said the will of the Sword Holding Palace’s Palace Master and took out the jade slip to prove it, he passed the second step.
Even though there was a conclusion before this, Xu Qing’s words were not meant to overturn that conclusion or protect Marquis Yao. Instead, he wanted to resolve more mysteries and provide the people of Fenghai County with more specific details to understand the situation better.

Although the people’s hearts were with the Deputy Governor, he ultimately couldn’t compare to the old county governor.

And the Palace Master’s illustrious contributions weren’t something that could be easily forgotten.

Xu Qing used words to bring these two mountains out. Coupled with his achievement in the heart inquisition, he exchanged for a chance to speak.

The former swayed the mortals of the city.

The latter shook the Fenghai cultivators who participated in the battle.

This was also the reason why in the end, the Deputy Governor cast a deep glance at Xu Qing, as though he was reacquainting himself with him.

This was because as long as Xu Qing’s previous words revealed the slightest hint of protecting Marquis Yao and overturning the previous conclusion, he could instantly suppress it.

At that moment, the world fell silent.

Amidst the opportunities he created, under the gazes of everyone and the convergence of the fortune crown above his head, Xu Qing stood in the air and took a deep breath.

He understood that his next words were extremely important. He couldn’t make any mistakes. If he said anything wrong, he would be consigned to eternal damnation.

Hence, he fell silent for a few breaths of time. He stared at the Deputy Governor and spoke in a deep voice.

“In April this year, the old county governor mysteriously died and the Holy Wave Race invaded at the same time. The 800-year peace in Fenghai County was broken because of this. The Black Heaven Race invaded the human race’s imperial region and stopped the new county governor and reinforcements from being sent, causing Fenghai County to be isolated and helpless. The situation was unstable and everyone was in a state of panic.”

“The Sword Holding Palace’s Palace Master took the responsibility of the county governor in the face of danger, and protected Fenghai County.”

“In the same month, as an edict bearer, I followed the Palace Master to handle the battle reports. At the end of April, the front line of Fenghai County reported an emergency. The Palace Master led the Fenghai County army and fulfilled the Sword Holder’s oath to protect Fenghai County. He personally went to the front line. At that time, I was the one who armed the Palace Master.”

Xu Qing’s voice echoed in all directions. These words weren’t without meaning. He wanted to stir the memories of hundreds of thousands of people here. He wanted the mortals in the city to recall the scene half a year ago.

He wanted them to know who had protected everything at that time.

“Before the Palace Master left, he didn’t let me accompany him. Instead, he used a substitute to cover it up and sent me to the Morning Glow Province to investigate the cause of the old county governor’s death.”

“The Palace Master suspects that the cause of the old county governor’s death stems from a pill called the Radiant Life Calamity Pill. This pill has been famous since ancient times and has been recorded in history. The principle of its activation is to detonate the fortune. The denser the fortune, the greater the lethality.”

“The old county governor had the fortune of the whole of Fenghai. His death shows the use of Radiant Life Calamity.”

“As for why the Palace Master associated the Radiant Life Calamity Pill with it, there are records in the classified document 19 in the Sword Holding Palace. I don’t know if this scroll is still there, but even if it isn’t, before the County Governor died, the Sword Holding Palace had a mission to receive the spy in the Holy Wave Race and obtained an empty wish box. There were many people who participated, and it is all evidence.”

“However, to use the Radiant Life Calamity Pill, you have to satisfy one condition. That is, you need a morning glow. Perhaps it is available in other regions as well, but it appears in the Morning Glow Province as well. Hence, the Palace Master asked me to go there and investigate if there is any morning glow that hasn’t been recorded.”

“Everything I said is clearly recorded on this jade slip!”

“After that, I followed the Palace Master’s orders and headed to the Morning Glow Province, and resolved the crisis of the Morning Glow Province’s Sword Holding Court. I investigated there and obtained the results. This matter can be verified by the Sword Holding Court in the Morning Glow Province. There are traces along the way, and I also have a jade slip which recorded the scenes. As for the results, there was indeed a morning glow that appeared in the Morning Glow Province many years ago and it wasn’t recorded.”

As soon as Xu Qing finished speaking, Kong Xianglong soared into the sky and spoke loudly.

“I participated in the rescue of the spy. I can prove the existence of the classified document 19 and the empty wish box. The content is exactly the same as what Xu Qing said!”

In an instant, the hundreds of thousands of cultivators on the platform. The entire city was also shaken.

The Seventh Prince’s gaze was reserved, while the Deputy Governor was expressionless.

Xu Qing took a deep breath and continued.

“I reported all of this to the Palace Master. In the same month, the Palace Master died in battle, but I continued to investigate secretly.”

When Xu Qing said this, the Deputy Governor sighed softly.

“Brother Liangxiu, you thought of the same thing as me.”

Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed.

The Deputy Governor’s gaze moved away from Xu Qing and looked at the hundreds of thousands of soldiers. His voice contained a hint of sorrow.
