Outside Of Time

769 The Disciple of the Crown Prince, Bai Xiaozhuo (2)
Xu Qing had the right to use it once. The Palace Master had given this authority to him.

As soon as the Taboo appeared, all the mortals in the city were shocked. The cultivators in the square felt waves of emotions rising in their hearts. The golden net was rapidly falling and continuously shrinking as it headed for the severed arm.

The old servant’s expression changed again and he retreated even faster.

However, that golden net didn’t cause any damage to him. This was because to Xu Qing, it wasn’t worth it to use the one-time use opportunity of the Taboo magic treasure on this old servant.

In that instant, under everyone’s gaze, the golden net covered the severed arm.

Xu Qing then walked out of the severed arm. His face was pale and he spat out a large mouthful of blood. His chest caved in and intense pain spread throughout his body. Even with the protection of the severed arm, he was still seriously injured.

However, he still stood there on the severed arm, welcoming the incoming golden net.

In the blink of an eye, the golden net covered his figure, forming a lump of golden flames that protected him.

From afar, compared to the world, this flame seemed to be just a sprout. It was like a spark, insignificant and powerless.

Xu Qing looked around with rising emotional fluctuations.
He knew that the moment he walked out just now, he had already pierced through the sky of Fenghai County.

And those who broke through the sky must bear its weight.

He hadn’t expected the Deputy Palace Master and the deacons to step forward for him. Moreover, he didn’t summon Qingqin.

However, they came forward one by one.

There were also more than 100,000 comrades. They were all looking at him with resolve in their eyes. They… believed in him.

Xu Qing wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He suddenly felt that he had more courage.

Among the hundreds of thousands of cultivators here, only 30% were Sword Holders. The remaining 70% came from the other two palaces and the Deputy Governor’s residence. Their expressions were filled with hesitation.

However, Xu Qing was no longer afraid.

Humans were like this. No matter how much they hesitated and weighed the pros and cons, once they threw caution to the wind, they would find that there was nothing to hold them back anymore.

It was a pity that the person who got close to him earlier wasn’t the Deputy Governor but that old servant. He was unable to use his trump card, and had to change his plan.

The fourth-stage Nihility puppet was also out of his expectations.

“I only have one chance…”

Xu Qing mumbled inwardly. He needed to create another opportunity for the Deputy Governor to approach him.

At the thought of this, Xu Qing took a deep breath and looked at the Deputy Governor.

“Deputy Governor, since you’re unwilling to admit your identity as Illuminate, I’ll continue to call you Deputy Governor. Actually, if you want to take me down, there’s no need to send anyone else. You’re a high and mighty Nihility, I’m just a fake Nascent Soul cultivator. I don’t think I can survive against you.”

At this point, blood flowed out of the corner of Xu Qing’s mouth. However, he continued to speak.

“Deputy Governor, Illuminate’s actions are extreme and likes blood-colored performances. Is what is happening here your blood-colored performance?”

“But I feel that it’s very lousy.”

Xu Qing shook his head.

“What’s bad isn’t this performance but you. You even suppressed your heart and violated the principle of reason. You don’t deserve to be called Illuminate.”

The Deputy Governor calmly looked at Xu Qing. His expression didn’t change at all as he calmly spoke.

“With your contribution to Fenghai and your achievement of 100,000 ft light in the Emperor’s Heart Inquisition, I can’t bear to kill you. Don’t walk toward the wrong path and seek death.”

When Xu Qing heard this, he smiled, his gaze calm.

“With a cunning mind like yours, to be willing to talk so much to me, you must have seen through my clumsy words to lure you closer. Although I’m not Illuminate, I feel that Illuminate’s straightforwardness is very good. I’ll also be straightforward. I do have a way to kill you, as long as you get close to me.”

“So, Deputy Governor, are you afraid of a tiny fake Nascent Soul like me? Do you dare to get close?”

“I know that you don’t dare to because you don’t even dare to say your true identity and name.” Xu Qing shook his head.

“And who are you putting on this performance for? Crown Prince Purple Green? I think he’ll shake his head because you dare to do it but don’t dare to admit it. So this is what Crown Prince Purple Green’s people are like. I think Crown Prince Purple Green must be the same kind of character, no wonder he perished and couldn’t rise to prominence.”

Xu Qing smiled.

“Or perhaps, it’s actually you who isn’t worthy of following Crown Prince Purple Green?”

The Deputy Governor remained calm throughout Xu Qing’s speed, but the last two sentences finally triggered a hint of fleeting coldness in his eyes.

The heart-slaying intensified a lot at this moment.

The Deputy Governor lifted his head and looked at the sky before speaking in a hoarse voice.

“It’s time for this farce to end. Seventh Highness, I apologize for this spectacle you had to witness.”

The Seventh Prince didn’t say anything and watched everything with a smile.

After the Deputy Governor finished speaking, he lifted his right hand and waved it. Immediately, another vortex appeared beside him. A fourth stage Nihility energy erupted from it. As the sound of footsteps rang out, a second puppet walked out.

It was the same armor, the same design, the same terrifying energy, and the same badly mangled flesh.

His appearance caused everyone’s hearts to tremble violently.

One puppet was already astonishing, but now, there was actually a second fourth stage Nihility puppet. Before everyone could calm down, the Deputy Governor’s voice echoed in the ears of countless mortals in the entire city.

“Sword Holder Xu Qing is deluded, spreading rumors and causing turmoil. He has acted in a highly rebellious manner and is unworthy of the result of the heart inquisition. His title as Sword Holder shall be revoked and he is to be executed on the spot to restore peace and tranquility!”

The moment the Deputy Governor’s voice spread in all directions, the second puppet stepped out.
