Outside Of Time

398 Date

Xu Qing silently descended the mountain.

He didn’t choose to fly but walked. He stepped on the moonlight and walked in the direction of the Seven Blood Eyes’ main city step by step.

The scene earlier caused a strange feeling to rise in his heart. In his entire life, it was rare for such waves to rise in his heart.

This made Xu Qing a little uncomfortable.

Hence, as he moved forward, he recited the content of the book on herbs in his mind. As the knowledge of medicinal herbs refreshed in his mind, Xu Qing’s heart gradually calmed down.

His expression changed to his usual self, his footsteps became steady and he increased his speed.

When he arrived at his berth a while later, Xu Qing stood on the shore and turned to glance in the direction of the Mystic Nether Sect. Doubt and vigilance rose in his mind. It wasn’t that he couldn’t tell that Purple Mystic Fairy was teasing him. The current Xu Qing was no longer an ignorant kid.

However, he didn’t believe that an ancestor whose cultivation had reached that level would have such simple thoughts. There must be another reason. After all… there was no inexplicable familiarity in this world.

There was a reason for everything.

However, he couldn’t understand the reason. Hence, he waved his hand and took out the magic ship. He stepped into the cabin and sat cross-legged, pondering.

Even when the sky gradually brightened outside, Xu Qing still had no clue. He buried this matter in his mind and closed his eyes to meditate.

As for the work of the Special Security Department, it had been a long time since Xu Qing was assigned any work. This was because the 20% discount jade slip he had given the captain was used every day.

According to the information given by the informant, the captain had been inviting Wu Jianwu over every day during this period of time. It was unknown what the two of them were talking about, but the captain seemed to be instigating Wu Jianwu, while Wu Jianwu seemed to look excited and hesitant.

Xu Qing was a little surprised but his curiosity wasn’t strong, so he didn’t ask. Instead, he seized the time to refine the Miemeng’s blood he had devoured. Just like that, several days passed.

The night sky was burned by the rising sun. When the sunlight entered the magic ship and illuminated the faceless bow of the ship, Xu Qing received a message in his voice transmission jade slip.

“Kid, pack up. Big Sister will come and fetch you. We’re going out for a walk.”

The moment he saw the message, Xu Qing fell silent. He thought about it and sent a message to Old Master Seventh, telling him about this and asking if it was okay.

Old Master Seventh fell silent as well. After a long time, he probed Xu Qing.

“First date?”

“Date?” Xu Qing started.

After sensing Xu Qing’s reaction, Old Master Seventh’s laughter rang out, telling Xu Qing that he could safely and boldly accompany her.

Just as Xu Qing was hesitating, Purple Mystic Fairy’s magnetic and soft voice rang out from outside the cabin.

“Kid, let’s go.”

Xu Qing silently walked out of the cabin. He saw Purple Mystic Fairy sitting on the railing of his magic ship, drinking from a flask of wine.

Purple Mystic Fairy’s black hair fluttered in the wind. She was dressed in a white scholar’s attire that was spotless. Her beautiful face that was like a pear blossom was peerlessly beautiful.

The light eyebrows are like autumn water, the jade skin is accompanied by a gentle wind.

Amidst the sunlight, her entire person looked like a precious and gorgeous treasure like all the beauty of the world was endowed to her.

Sensing that Xu Qing had walked out, Purple Mystic Fairy put down the wine flask and turned her head gently.

At this moment, the sunlight passed through the gaps in her fluttering hair, forming a halo that emitted a hint of rainbow.

When her eyes that carried a deep divine charm looked at Xu Qing, the corners of her mouth curled into a smile.

This smile was different from the smile of a hunter that Xu Qing was used to. It seemed to contain gentleness that wrapped around Xu Qing’s heart.

If someone was here and saw this scene, they would definitely feel dazed. Among the two people on the ship, the woman was like a precious and beautiful treasure while the man was like the stars. It was as though at this moment, even the rising son was willing to be a background.

Xu Qing stopped in his tracks.

Today, Purple Mystic Fairy was completely different from what he usually saw. She was less bewitching and more heroic. She was less domineering and more gentle.

There were some contradictions but it perfectly fused with Purple Mystic Fairy.

This change in style caused Xu Qing to involuntarily take a few more glances.

“Do I look good?” Purple Mystic Fairy tilted her head and blinked.

Xu Qing nodded.

Purple Mystic Fairy let out a pleasant laughter and patted the railing.

“Your ship isn’t bad. Let’s travel on this ship to the Mystic Nether Sect you saw.” With that, Purple Mystic Fairy turned around and took a deep breath of the air that contained sunlight. She then picked up the wine flask and drank again.

Xu Qing looked at the railing that Purple Mystic Fairy was sitting on and her deep breathing. He hesitated for a moment. There were too many poisons on his ship. Right now, there were at least 200 types of poison scattered on the ship. Regardless of whether it was the deck or the railing, every part of the ship was filled with poison.

However, he felt that with Purple Mystic Fairy’s cultivation, his little bit of poison was nothing. Hence, he performed hand seals and waved his hand. Immediately, the ship trembled and slowly rose into the air. After changing directions, it whistled in the direction of the Immortal Enrichment River.

The sails of the ship rose with a majestic aura.

Xu Qing stood tall on the bow deck. As he controlled the ship, his purple Daoist robe fluttered in the wind.

On the railing at the side, the peerlessly beautiful Purple Mystic Fairy sat there. Her legs swayed gently as she looked into the distance. As she drank, she enjoyed the breeze. Her black hair fluttered along with Xu Qing’s clothes.

If there was a painter painting this scene, it would definitely be a masterpiece with a deep artistic conception.

In the harbor, the captain stuck his head out from a corner. He held the recording jade slip in his hand and quickly imprinted this scene.

“It’s Little Qing’s first date. I need to keep such a precious scene. Maybe I can sell it for a high price in the future.” The captain’s face was filled with pride.

However, he didn’t notice that not far away, Old Master Seventh was standing in a pavilion. He looked at the flying ship and sighed.

“Is this still the Fairy Zi Xuan who caused countless elites to yearn for her back then? That kid’s charm can already compare to when I was young.”

Under the gazes of the master and disciple, the ship left the Seven Blood Eyes and sped forward along the tributary of the Immortal Enrichment River.

The sky was clear and cloudless. The blue sky was like a pure lake, giving off a relaxed and happy feeling. At the bow of the boat, Xu Qing didn’t look sideways and did his best to control the ship.

Being alone with Purple Mystic Fairy made Xu Qing a little nervous. After all, not only was the other party’s cultivation terrifying, but her previous actions also made him feel uncomfortable.

Hence, he could only focus all his attention on controlling the ship.

Just like that, time flowed by and the day passed.

Although Xu Qing’s nervousness was still there, he heaved a sigh of relief. This was because during this time, Purple Mystic Fairy didn’t say a word. She seemed to like sitting on the railing of the boat and drinking wine there. She liked to enjoy the wind and look into the distance.

Perhaps it was because the day was clear, there was more starlight than usual and unknowingly, they gathered around Purple Mystic Fairy.

This caused the already beautiful Purple Mystic Fairy to seem to be surrounded by stars. Her beautiful face exuded a dazzling and flawless charm. At the same time, she was gorgeous and pure, like a fairy on the moon walking into the human world.

However, this fairy was no longer bewitching or gentle. Instead, there was a hint of coldness on her body as she looked at the Grand Affairs Misfortune Passing Mountain.

Xu Qing also looked over and noticed that there seemed to be a sect there. Because the location was too far, he couldn’t see it clearly. He could only faintly hear screams and cries coming from the wind.

“Let’s go take a look,” Purple Mystic Fairy said calmly.

This was the first time Xu Qing had sensed such a cold expression and tone from Purple Mystic Fairy. At this moment, his heart trembled. He turned the magic ship and headed straight for the Grand Affairs Misfortune Passing Mountain.

As he got closer, Xu Qing saw that it wasn’t a sect but a stronghold built on the top of a mountain. There were over a hundred rogue cultivators, including humans and nonhumans. Most of them reeked of blood and malevolence. There was also a lot of blood spilled in the stronghold and there was even an array formation engraved in the middle.

Countless corpses were piled up on the array formation, as though they were sacrifices for some evil ritual.

As the ritual was activated, an indescribable evil spread out from the array formation. A sound of chewing spread from the array formation. The over hundred malevolent cultivators in the surroundings all revealed deranged expressions as they prostrated and worshiped.

Xu Qing took a look and his pupils constricted slightly. A sense of palpitations rose in his heart.

Those hundred or so cultivators weren’t anything. The highest cultivation level was only Golden Cores with a Heavenly Palace. What made Xu Qing’s heart palpitate was the evilness emitted by the array formation.

“The Sword Holders once declared that it is strictly forbidden to offer sacrifices to evil creatures in the Yinghuang Province. The Eight Sects Alliance also has such a decree. You guys are quite bold.”

Purple Mystic Fairy’s voice was calm. The instant it appeared in the night sky, the evil aura in the array formation fluctuated intensely, revealing horror. It rapidly contracted, as though it wanted to retreat.

As for the surrounding cultivators, their expressions changed drastically. However, before they could speak and see the magic ship clearly, Purple Mystic Fairy lifted her jade-like hand and waved it down gently.

The way she waved her hand contained an indescribable spiritual intent in Xu Qing’s eyes. He couldn’t see much and only felt that this casual wave of his hand seemed to conform to the rules of the operation of the world. There were no divine powers or spells manifesting, but…

The hundred or so trembling cultivators suddenly shrunk. Even the array formation, the evil aura inside, and even the mountain shrunk in the blink of an eye and disappeared from Xu Qing’s vision.

This scene caused Xu Qing’s mind to tremble. A gravel flew over and landed between Purple Mystic Fairy’s fingers.

Xu Qing circulated his cultivation base and observed the gravel carefully. Under his all-out effort, he finally saw that the sand was in the shape of a mountain. It was the mountain from before.

The cultivators on it including the array formation and the evil in it were exactly the same, except they had been shrunk countless times. At this moment, they were horrified and despairing.

Purple Mystic Fairy pinched gently.

With a cracking sound, the gravel turned into dust and dissipated.

“Kid, what are you waiting for? Let’s continue moving. Just follow the mountain range. I want to see the mountain scenery.” Purple Mystic Fairy, who was sitting on the railing, glanced at Xu Qing and smiled lightly.

This smile replaced the coldness, and its charm surpassed the moonlight.
