Outside Of Time

815 Assassination at the Grave (4)
It directly suppressed the black lightning rift.

“Fourth stage of Nihility!”

Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed. At that moment, the green smoke emitted by the lit incense stick in front of him suddenly transformed into a finger and pressed down on Xu Qing.

The killing intent spread in all directions, locking onto Xu Qing’s body and soul. If it landed, it could destroy Xu Qing, body and soul.

However, the instant this finger appeared, the void beside it distorted and another person walked out, blocking in front of Xu Qing as he let out a deep shout.

“Scatter!”

The voice carried a terrifying fluctuation but it avoided the damage to the tomb and directly landed in the smoke finger.

The smoke exploded.

The figure of the person who arrived was also clearly reflected in Xu Qing’s eyes.

He was the Great Elder of the Yinghuang Province’s Sword Holding Court.

He was Grandmaster Bai’s master.

After he appeared, he turned his head and looked at Xu Qing before looking at Ting Yu and Chen Feiyuan. He then nodded and calmly spoke.

“Xu Qing, continue paying your respects.”

Xu Qing fell silent. After cupping his fists, he looked at Grandmaster Bai’s tombstone and lowered his head to kowtow.

“I’m sorry for disturbing your sleep…”

Xu Qing mumbled softly. He understood Marquis Yao’s thoughts. He could comprehend this matter, but he wasn’t informed beforehand.

Xu Qing understood that the reason he wasn’t informed was because Marquis Yao guessed that he wouldn’t agree to have the location set at Grandmaster Bai’s grave, or perhaps the battlefield wasn’t determined by their side.

Xu Qing lowered his head and kowtowed heavily.

Once, twice, thrice…

This time, Marquis Yao’s preparations were very thorough, combined with the cooperation from Purple Earth, so it didn’t take long for the thousands of assassins around to either die or be captured. The battle in the sky also didn’t last too long.

After sensing that Xu Qing had such an arrangement beside him, the assassins already had the intention to retreat.

At the same time, a rain of blood flowed from the black lightning rift as Marquis Yao’s great world entered it.

Gradually, this assassination attempt ended. Although the battle was still going on, the battlefield was already away from Purple Earth as the assassins tried to flee.

The world slowly fell silent.

This assassination attempt from the hidden rebellious forces in Fenghai County had failed. Perhaps this wasn’t their whole plan, or perhaps they could have set it up better.contemporary romance

However, the constraints of time, the failure in choosing the battlefield, or some unforeseen factors, all led to this outcome.

Because today’s events gave Xu Qing the feeling that it was more like a performance.

“Maybe this isn’t Marquis Yao fishing but closing the net after he received some information…”

Xu Qing fell into deep thought.

The Great Elder of the Sword Holding Court in the Yinghuang Province saw Xu Qing’s expression and slowly spoke.

“Don’t hold a grudge against Marquis Yao. He actually paid a lot more. He used the Taboo of the county capital and his meager fortune to forcefully gather the great world. What he paid to do this was his lifespan.”

“As the acting County Governor, his connections in the various races will be the foundation of his future governance of Fenghai County. It will also be a completely different style of doing things from the old county governor.”

“Probably, some races gave information after deciding to pledge allegiance.”
“In order to strengthen the stability of Fenghai and intimidate the other forces, as well as to guard against some people outside the county, Marquis Yao couldn’t show fear. Hence, he chose to establish his might.”

“After all, there is no true fourth-stage Nihility almighty in Fenghai County.”

At this point, the Great Elder cast a meaningful glance at Xu Qing.

“In addition, it will also erase one of your weaknesses from the enemy’s understanding. After all, to be able to set up a trap in front of your teacher’s grave is enough to show that the emotions of the mortal world can’t shake your heart. This way, no one will target you with this method in the future.”

“Of course, this is just my personal judgment.”

Xu Qing didn’t say anything. He understood the current situation in Fenghai County very well and could sense Marquis Yao’s intentions.

At that moment, when he lifted his head and looked at the surrounding battlefield, Chen Feiyuan quickly walked over from afar and spoke in a low voice.

“Purple Earth’s side has captured many of them alive. Other than some who will be interrogated, how should we deal with the others?”

Xu Qing composed himself and calmly spoke.

“Kill.”
