Outside Of Time

771 The Disciple of the Crown Prince, Bai Xiaozhuo (4)
A remnant soul rose from the puppet’s body and appeared in the outside world, transforming into an extremely tall existence.

The appearance of the body could be destroyed, but the appearance of the soul would exist forever.

The face of this soul… belonged to none other than the Palace Master of the Law Palace, one of the three great palaces in Fenghai County!

In an instant, the expressions of everyone in the city who saw this scene changed drastically.

The remnant soul couldn’t exist forever, and was already dissipating. It couldn’t speak and its gaze was fixed on Fenghai. Just like the County Governor and Kong Liangxiu in the past, it revealed reluctance.

Anger rose from the Law Palace cultivators on the ground and they glared at the Deputy Governor.

General Blood Nightmare turned and looked at the Deputy Governor. He removed his mask, revealing a face that everyone was familiar with.

“Deputy Governor, long time no see!”

“Yao Tianyan, why aren’t you hiding anymore!” The Deputy Governor looked at that face and sighed again. He had sighed many times today.

The emotions of the hundreds of thousands of people under the platform swayed. This General Blood Nightmare was actually Marquis Yao, who had disappeared from the battlefield and was convicted of treason!

The city was in an uproar again. This series of changes caused the minds of countless people to go blank.

Xu Qing’s breathing was hurried. He immediately turned his head and looked at the other puppet, trying to find a familiar trace. However, he didn’t. It wasn’t the Sword Holding Palace’s Palace Master…

At that moment, Marquis Yao spoke softly.

“I originally didn’t want to appear, the old county governor had shown kindness to my family. The promise I made to him back then hasn’t been fulfilled yet, but I have no choice. The way of the world is unpredictable.”

“I’m already at such an old age, and I can’t just let a good child of our human race fall like this. Throughout my life, I’ve experienced too much, reached the peak, been praised, and also been heavily criticized. I’ve experienced glory and infamy. If I have to die, then so be it. Besides… the few family members I have left were also saved by this child. This debt of gratitude is too great.”

After saying that, he looked at Xu Qing with a gentle gaze before looking at the Deputy Governor.

“And you, Deputy Governor, your calculations were indeed amazing, deceiving all of us and causing us to distrust each other and be suspicious. But you still missed one step. Brother Hengxin, Rong Yu, and I, while at the frontlines, we each placed a soul-binding spell on the other, so that we could truly trust each other.”

“And you coveted their bodies, turning their fallen forms into puppets. As a result, our soul-binding spells became the means to awaken their lingering souls. Though it can only manifest for a moment before dissipating, it’s enough.”

As Marquis Yao’s voice rang out, hundreds of thousands of people below the platform heard it. Tens of millions of people in the city heard it. The heavens heard it, and the earth heard it!
Endless anger erupted from the entire city.

Countless gazes gathered from all directions and a shocking killing intent rose from everyone.

The entire city was unprecedentedly united in directing their killing intent toward the Deputy Governor.

Xu Qing lifted his head and sensed everything. He knew that he was just a spark but at this moment, he had finally ignited a world.

Everything was extremely clear. All the evidence was conclusive.

“Using Xu Qing’s words, Deputy Governor, your plan is reasonable and it’s reasonable for us to expose it. Do you dare to admit it?”

“Please correct me.”

Marquis Yao calmly spoke.

The Deputy Governor fell silent. A long time later, he exhaled a mouthful of turbid air similar to what Xu Qing had exhaled earlier. His entire person seemed to have relaxed. He then turned his head and glanced at the Seventh Prince on the platform.

The Seventh Prince was expressionless.

Marquis Yao appeared among his generals. Naturally, the Seventh Prince had a hand in this. In reality, he was the one who secretly saved Marquis Yao on the battlefield.

One of his goals for doing this was to leave a method to keep the Deputy Governor in check.

The second goal was that once his father discovered what he had done, this would be the point to clear the suspicion. This was because this could prove that he wasn’t sincerely cooperating. Everything was for the sake of the human race, and the Human Emperor only looked at the results.

With his understanding of his father, as long as he could prove this point, he would be safe. Compared to the losses, the rewards of success were immense: becoming a hero of the human race, expanding the territory, and leading the return of the Holy Wave Race, all of which were extraordinary achievements.

Thus, he would never lose.

As for the Deputy Governor exposing him now, he was looking forward to it.

This was because no matter what the other party said, no one would believe him. His stain would also disappear forever.

However, he was certain that the other party wouldn’t do that. This was because the transaction of the Holy Wave Race’s return hadn’t been completed and the other party hadn’t obtained the bowl he wanted.

Moreover, fundamentally speaking, he didn’t plan to break the contract either. It was just that the other party couldn’t receive it.

Everything had nothing to do with him.

Hence, from the start to the end, he didn’t help the Deputy Governor or Xu Qing. He only watched the show but what he observed was mostly Xu Qing and he firmly engraved it in his mind.

After staring at the Seventh Prince, the Deputy Governor turned his head. Under the countless gazes that wanted to kill him, he swept his gaze across everyone in the surroundings. In the end, he looked at Xu Qing seriously.

It was this person in front of him who he had never cared about. In the end, he ignited everything and killed his heart.

He knew Xu Qing. He had recognized him from the first moment he saw him in the Sword Holding Palace.

He had heard that his lord had a younger brother in this life, but he didn’t care. How could someone who had seen a giant dragon fancy a snake?

He originally thought that the other party’s appearance was only similar to his master’s and that they couldn’t be compared at all.

But now, he didn’t think so.

He saw his master’s brilliance from Xu Qing.

Hence, he spoke softly.

“Xu Qing, you asked for my identity and name previously. I can tell you now.”

A look of reminiscence appeared in the Deputy Governor’s eyes.

“I’m the Purple Green Kingdom’s Fenghai County Governor, Bai Xiaozhuo.”

“I was the county governor here tens of thousands of years ago. This place was originally mine.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the hearts of everyone in Fenghai County trembled. Xu Qing’s gaze froze.

The name of the Holy Wave Large Region was changed by the Grand Duke Holy Wave after he betrayed the human race. Before this, it was called the Purple Green Region. During the time of the even more ancient Human Emperor Mirror Cloud, this region was called the Purple Green Kingdom.

The emperor of this country had fallen and the crown prince was in charge of the country.

At that time, Fenghai County was still known as Fenghai County.

In the 9315th year of the Purple Green Calendar, the crown prince died in the Nanhuang Continent in autumn.

In the same year, the Purple Green Kingdom was destroyed.

The disciple of the crown prince, the last county governor of Fenghai County, Bai Xiaozhuo, laughed mournfully. When he saw the entire county’s cultivators die in front of him, he wept blood and mutilated himself. Only half of his face was left, which was the same as the god’s fragmented-face.

Before he died, he had said.

“I will follow the crown prince and awaken a thousand years before him to protect him.”
