OUTSIDE OF TIME

431 My Treasure Robe

“Little Qing, come with me. I’ll bring you guys to do something big,” the captain said quickly. As he spoke, he glanced around, looking very vigilant.

“I’m not going.” Xu Qing shook his head.

“Why?” The captain was anxious.

“You’ve provoked the Mystic Nether Sect and are here to pull me over to cover for you.” Xu Qing recalled the time when he was in the forbidden area of the Mystic Nether Sect with the captain. The captain had been looking at the demon snake’s fang with a fanatical gaze.

He then thought about how the other party had been in frequent contact with Wu Jianwu. In the end, Wu Jianwu was captured like a fool, but the captain had escaped unscathed.

Clearly, Wu Jianwu had been fooled to the point of being an idiot.

The captain coughed. This was indeed what he thought inwardly. After all, this thing was really big. He was worried that if he didn’t pull Xu Qing along, he would be slapped to death by Purple Mystic Fairy.

If Xu Qing was around him, even if Purple Mystic Fairy really came, there was a high chance that he would be safe.

“Junior Brother, you have to believe in me, your Eldest Senior Brother! Don’t worry, this time, we’ll definitely do something big. Aren’t you materializing your Heavenly Palaces? After this matter is over, you can materialize a lot of Heavenly Palaces!” The captain looked into Xu Qing’s eyes and patted his chest as if he was telling that he wouldn’t deceive his people.

Then, he picked up an egg beside him and peeled it to eat.

Xu Qing’s expression remained the same as he continued to drink the soup. Yanyan, who was at the side, had a face filled with curiosity. When she looked at the captain, she didn’t forget to place the peeled egg in her hand into Xu Qing’s bowl and smiled sweetly at him.

This scene made the captain a little unhappy. He looked down at the egg in his hand. He also wanted someone to peel eggs for him.

“Little Qing, I don’t think you look human.”

“Captain, the people from the Mystic Nether Sect should be here soon, right?” Xu Qing drank a mouthful of soup.

The captain’s eyebrows shot up.

“It’s impossible for humans to have such looks like you. Absolutely impossible. Have you realized that as you grow older, you’ve become more and more demonic? You’re vaguely similar to a mysterious race I’ve heard of in the past. I think you’re most likely the orphan of that race. Little Qing, I know that race. Do you want to know more about your background?”

“Don’t want to.” Xu Qing drank the last mouthful of soup and ate another egg, feeling very satisfied. He didn’t believe a single word the captain said.

The captain was a little anxious. Seeing that Xu Qing was stubborn, he used his trump card.

“Deputy Director Xu, you still owe me 2 million Spirit Stones!”

“Eldest Senior Brother, I have some jade slips here. They should be very valuable.” As Xu Qing spoke, he took out the jade slip that recorded the captain disguising as a woman.

“Yanyan, I don’t think you should join the Seven Blood Eyes. Listen to me and join the Mystic Nether Sect. Based on my understanding of Little Qing, he has a special fondness for the Mystic Nether Sect.” The captain looked at Yanyan and egged her on.

Yanyan’s eyes lit up.

Xu Qing sighed inwardly. He could tell that the captain was really afraid and nervous this time. The captain insisted on dragging him along and probably wouldn’t stop until he agreed.

“Little Qing, you’ve grown up. Don’t you remember how good your Senior Brother was to you? I’m your superior. I’m your Eldest Senior Brother. I rebuked the master for you. I even told you his weakness. I even bled for you. I took the blame for you. We went home together. We took a bath together. We went out to play together. We…”

The captain looked aggrieved.

Yanyan’s eyes widened as she stared at the captain in disbelief before looking at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing fell silent. After pondering for a moment, he took out an apple and passed it to the captain.

The captain raised his brows. Xu Qing took out another immortal pool card and placed it over.

The captain hesitated.

“30% off!” Xu Qing looked at the captain.

The captain glanced at the card and resisted taking it.

“Are you going or not?”

Xu Qing sighed. He didn’t want to go, but since the captain had already said so much, he nodded.

The captain smiled and quickly picked up the apple and card.

“That’s a good junior brother. I am not lying to you. We are going to do something big. Yanyan, let’s go together.”

Yanyan’s eyes lit up as she nodded quickly.

“Let’s go right away. We won’t be able to get out if we’re late. Little Qing, use your magic warship.” The captain hurriedly stood up and urged.

Xu Qing silently took out his magic warship.

As soon as the magic warship appeared, the captain was the first to jump onto it. Xu Qing’s body swayed and he also stepped onto the magic warship. Yanyan was about to follow when Xu Qing swept a glance at her.

Yanyan immediately raised her hand and pointed at the captain.

“He wants me to follow.”

“Bring Yanyan along. She understands women. It’s convenient for our goal,” the captain said quickly.

Xu Qing frowned and didn’t say anything. Under the captain’s urging, he performed an incantation gesture and the magic warship rumbled as it shot into the sky, instantly leaving the Seven Blood Eyes.

Less than thirty breaths after they left, Purple Mystic Fairy walked over with a cold expression. She stood in midair and looked at the distant magic warship. She wanted to chase after it, but when she thought of Xu Qing’s increasingly silent personality, she stood still.

“It’s good for him to get some fresh air. However, even if the young one leaves, the old one won’t be able to escape!” Purple Mystic Fairy snorted coldly and charged toward the Seven Blood Eyes aggressively.

A while later, Old Master Seventh’ furious roar rang out from the Seven Blood Eyes.

“Chen Erniu, don’t come back if you have the ability. If you come back, I’ll break your legs!”

This voice was extremely loud and reverberated in all directions. Even Xu Qing, who was far away, could hear it. He looked at the captain who had a smug expression on his face.

Sensing Xu Qing’s gaze, the captain coughed.

“The old man is hinting at me not to come back for the time being. Sigh, as expected, Master still loves me.”

“I feel that Master is serious this time.” Xu Qing retracted his gaze from the captain and lowered his head to scan his voice transmission jade slip. Old Master Seventh’ gritted voice echoed in his mind.

“Is your Eldest Senior Brother with you? This brat became bold after I gave him a treasure that can turn him into an illusionary form and create clones as well. He actually turned off his voice transmission jade slip and didn’t dare to look at my message. Tell him that the ancestor also thinks that he’s too troublesome this time and suggested breaking his legs. I support the suggestion!”

The captain couldn’t hear Old Master Seventh’s voice in Xu Qing’s mind, so he was still smiling proudly.

“You don’t understand. In fact, the person who cares about me the most in the sect is not Master, but the ancestor. At worst, I’ll beg the ancestor. Little Qing, you won’t be able to do this. Only I’m the most beloved junior disciple of the ancestor. However, you don’t have to be sad. I can’t help it. I’m more pleasing to the old fellows than you. They like people like me who are lively.”

Xu Qing silently kept the jade slip and dispelled the thought of telling him.

Then, as he steered the magic warship forward, he asked the captain about the big deed.

When the captain saw that they were far away from the sect, he breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice, “It’s really something big!”

“Our target this time is the Three Spirits Suppression Mountain!”

Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed as he prepared to steer the magic warship back. He didn’t want to court death.

“Stop. There’s definitely no problem this time. I’ve already investigated. Our target is the youngest of the Three Spirits Suppression Mountain, the Spirit Venerable Nether Fairy.” The captain’s eyes lit up.

“Do you still remember that dress she wore back then? When she flew over my head arrogantly, I took a fancy to that precious dress of mine.”

“Most importantly, I have information that the Sword Holding Court is going to attack the Three Spirits soon. The time shouldn’t be too far away, so we’ll sneak in first. When the Sword Holders arrive to attack, we’ll take advantage of the chaos to go in and take out my treasured dress.”

“That dress is full of treasures. Little Qing, when the time comes, you can absorb any one of the treasures and you can easily materialize a few Heavenly Palaces.” The captain’s breathing quickened. The more he spoke, the more excited he became. Clearly, he had been thinking about that dress for a long time.

“Besides, why do you think I went to the Mystic Nether Sect to get that fang? Isn’t it to cut the dress? I think it’s a little difficult for me to bite that dress with my teeth, but with the demon snake’s fang, there won’t be a problem.”

When Yanyan heard such a crazy plan from the side, she couldn’t help taking a deep breath even with her personality. She was crazy and sometimes bloodthirsty, but she still loved her life.

She felt that the captain was truly crazy. After all, he was targeting an almighty expert on the same level as her grandmother.

Stealing her dress… This matter was extremely dangerous. If they were discovered, it would be no different from courting death. Moreover, there wasn’t just one Nihility almighty, but three.

Even if the Swordholders really attacked, the danger level was still extremely high. This was because she understood women. She knew that women valued their favorite dress more than anything else.

If someone touched their favorite dress, they would definitely be furious.

However, at the next instant, she saw a contemplative look on Xu Qing’s face. Hence, she blinked and didn’t say anything.

Xu Qing pondered for a moment and analyzed the situation. If it was really as the captain said, this operation might not be impossible. However, he still had some doubts. After thinking about it, he immediately spoke.

“There’s no problem with taking action, but that dress is obviously a battle robe. Spirit Venerable Nether Fairy will definitely wear it when she takes action. How are we going to take it?”

The captain’s eyes were filled with disdain.

“No matter what, she’s still a woman! Moreover, she’s a woman who loves beauty. Don’t forget that she flew all the way while looking at the mirror that day.”

Xu Qing felt a little puzzled.

Seeing that Xu Qing still didn’t understand, the captain suddenly felt a strong sense of superiority. Hence, he coughed and looked at Yanyan.

“Yanyan, how many clothes do you have?”

“It’s not much…” Yanyan blinked and said softly. Then, she added, “It’s only the size of a mountain. However, if anyone touches my clothes, I’ll kill them. Brother Xu Qing is an exception.”

The captain ignored the last half of Yanyan’s sentence. At this moment, he looked down at Xu Qing from above and spoke with deep meaning.

“Do you understand?”

“How could that Spirit Venerable Nether Fairy only have one dress? Do you think she’s you? Even if she really coincidentally wore that dress to fight, it doesn’t matter. She must have other similar treasure dresses.”

“Heh, it’s impossible for a woman to only have one expensive dress. Little Qing, I know women better than you,” the captain said proudly.

“Therefore, our gains this time will definitely be huge!”

Xu Qing fell silent.

“Moreover, the Sword Holding Court’s recruitment trial is about to begin. We’ll go over after this. The time is just right.”

“I’ve already planned it out. This time, we’ll show our faces in front of the Three Spirits and the higher-ups of the Sword Holding Court. We’ll show some ability and attract their attention. When the time comes, we might be able to obtain additional points when we participate in the trial.”

“Trust me, Junior Brother. Everything I’ve done is so that we can have a better chance at joining the Sword Holding Court!”
