Outside of Time

"Captain, why are you shaking?"

In the eastern part of Nanhuang Continent, inside Lujiao City, on the teleportation array.

As the teleportation light shone, the figures of Xu Qing and the captain appeared here.

Xu Qing still hid his appearance out of habit, and the captain was even more familiar with it, pretending to be middle-aged. However, when he walked out of the teleportation array, his legs were obviously shaking.

Xu Qing was surprised.

"Shaking? How is it possible, Xu Qing, you saw it wrong." The captain coughed and patted his leg hard.

Xu Qing was silent. He didn't need to guess. He knew that the captain must have done something big in the sect, and it was obviously not a small matter. Otherwise, with the captain's madness, it would be impossible for him to still have some problems after arriving here. trembling.

Since the captain didn't say anything, Xu Qing didn't ask. After walking out of the teleportation array, he looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar Lujiao City, and the scene where he teleported from here after burning the Vajra Sect came to mind.

With memories in mind, Xu Qing walked forward.

Although this is a branch city of Qixuetong, its remote location and harsh environment make this place much dirtier and messier than the main city of Qixuetong. There are some stinky and rotten things everywhere on the ground. People sitting in the corners of the streets are as skinny as Most of Chai's figures were looking at the sky aimlessly.

The entire city was filled with depression.

Xu Qing walked forward silently, and met no one who looked at him on the road. After all, although human nature is violent in this remote place, most of the people who can survive here are not fools.

They can instinctively distinguish who can be bullied and who cannot be provoked.

Xu Qing and the captain gave them the impression of the latter.

"Xu Qing, are you really not curious?" When he arrived at the gate of Antler City, the captain couldn't help but took out an apple and took a bite. He didn't care much about the surrounding environment, but was actually very curious about Xu Qing. I really can resist asking.

"Curious." Xu Qing did not look back. After walking out of Antler City, he looked at the restricted area where he had lived for seven years and finally turned into ruins after the gods opened his eyes.

Antler City is not very far from the small town where he was back then.

"You don't look curious at all... That's all. Since you used to be my team member and owe me fifty thousand spiritual stones, I can reveal a little bit."

"Ancestor, we are playing a big game of chess! I can't say any more. If I continue, my ancestor will probably skin me!" The captain looked around and spoke in a low voice.

Xu Qing yelled and moved forward quickly. He was not going to go back to the ruined city. He had nothing to miss there now. Moreover, the last time he was chased by the ancestor of the King Kong Sect, the cause and effect of the weirdness there was solved.

There is no point in going anymore.

So Xu Qing's direction was towards the scavenger camp.

The captain was beside him, looking at the surrounding wilderness as he walked. It was early spring here, and traces of snow on the ground could occasionally be seen. The wind blowing did not contain much spring feeling. Although the ground was not freezing, it was still freezing.

"Let me tell you about Xu Qing, Liu Ye...he is also an old trickster. He put on a good show on Starfish Island that day." Seeing that Xu Qing still didn't continue to ask, the captain felt itchy in his heart and couldn't bear it. I couldn't help but want to show off what I saw, but I didn't dare to tell everything.

Xu Qing nodded.

"Oh, Xu Qing, I really want to criticize you. It's not good for you to do this." The captain felt helpless and took a hard bite of the apple.

"You have absolutely no idea what I saw in the Sixth Peak. It was so shocking and unexpected. This is a huge chess game."

"Sure enough, the older people get, the smarter they become. Any one of those old guys from our Seven Blood Eyes can play with people at their fingertips."

The captain took a breath, feeling very emotional.

Xu Qing frowned. He didn't understand much when he heard this. He just knew that the important things the captain did should be related to the Sixth Peak. And he thought of the scene where the captain saw the Sixth Peak's eyes shining, so Something stirred in my heart.

"Captain, you didn't go to the Sixth Peak to eat something, did you?"

The captain raised his eyebrows, somewhat dissatisfied.

"What do you mean by chewing something? Lieutenant, I want to remind you, how can you talk to your boss like this!"

"I am the director of the Crime Catching Department." Xu Qing said calmly.

"I am your senior brother!" The captain finished the apple and took a pear, as if he had known you would say this.

"I haven't become a disciple yet." Xu Qing responded.

"Why don't you come and see His Highness!" The captain raised his chin and looked at Xu Qing arrogantly.

Xu Qing was silent. He realized that he could not speak to the captain this time, so he pretended not to hear and continued to move forward. With his current speed, half an hour was enough to get from Antler City to the scavenger camp.

So as he spoke, he had climbed over the mountain and could see the scavenger camp at the foot of the mountain and the dark forest in the distance.

Standing here and looking at it, above the forest in the restricted area, black fog is shrouded, and lightning is filled. Sometimes it falls into the restricted area and makes a rumbling sound.

The captain glanced at the restricted area in the distance, with a look of surprise on his face.

"This forbidden area is very big, and there are divine fluctuations in it!"

Xu Qing nodded. In the past, his cultivation was too weak and he did not know the divinity. Now that he is back and standing here, he can clearly feel the spread of divinity fluctuations in the restricted area in the distance.

Soon, Xu Qing withdrew his gaze and stared at the scavenger camp below. It was still full of chaos, and unbridled laughter could be faintly heard inside.

Xu Qing withdrew his gaze and walked forward. The captain coughed beside him.

"Little Aqing, my senior brother has given in to you before, but you don't have to be discouraged. This matter is too big and I can't tell you."

"This matter has actually affected the battlefield. You don't know. After I entered the Sixth Peak, I was shocked the moment I saw it."

"In addition, I think the future development of Qixuetong, under the leadership of such a group of old yins, should be very good..."

"Are you really not curious? Otherwise, how about you say a few words that I like to hear, and I risk being skinned to tell you."

On the way down the mountain, the captain was obviously the one with the secret, and kept trying to make Xu Qing curious, but in the end his own intention of showing off made him more anxious than Xu Qing.

Xu Qing was silent and walked into the scavenger camp without saying a word.

What I saw before my eyes was almost the same as in my memory. The ground was full of filth, and there were rags all around. There were scavengers wearing fur coats, some were covered in dirt, and some had scars on their faces.

The arrival of Xu Qing and the team leader slowly made the noisy scavenger camp quiet down. Most of the scavengers here stepped back and looked flattering.

But Xu Qing knew that behind this flattery, he was observing whether he could snatch it.

Xu Qing glanced over and ignored them. He didn't see any familiar figures here. After all, two years is not much different from a lifetime for most scavengers.

Until Xu Qing reached the house where he once lived, he stopped here.

This house is already occupied by someone else.

After a while, Xu Qing sighed softly in his heart, turned around and left. The captain also took a look at the house, knowing in his heart that this should be Xu Qing's original residence. At this moment, he was walking beside Xu Qing, and when he was about to leave with him, the captain suddenly saw A tent.

There was a feather hanging on the tent.

Unlike Xu Qing's childhood, the captain obviously didn't know what was going on with the tents with feathers in the scavenger camps and slums, but soon he knew the answer when he saw someone walking out of it with his pants lifted.

"So it's like this. It's almost the same as Goulan, except that the scavenger camp uses feathers as a sign." The captain suddenly realized and was about to look away, but the next moment he stared at the feathers, and then looked at Xu Qing.

"Xu Qing, back on Mermaid Island, after you saw half of my body missing, you said you wanted to give me a feather..." The captain's eyes widened.

Xu Qing glanced at him, took out an apple, took a bite, and walked out.

The captain snorted, looked at the feathers again, turned around and ran over, not knowing how to communicate. When he caught up with Xu Qing, he already had seven or eight more feathers in his hand.

"This is a good thing. I'll give Zhang San one as a gift when I get back."

Xu Qing walked out of the scavenger camp and walked towards the restricted area while glancing at the feathers in the captain's hand. When he was about to approach the restricted area, he suddenly asked.

"Captain, what did you see in the six peaks?"

A smile appeared on the captain's face. He was waiting for Xu Qing's words, and he had been holding it back all the way. He didn't hide it at this moment. After putting away the feathers, he looked around and spoke in a low voice.

"Before I tell you this answer, please recall the sect's war route this time."

"First, the Seventh Peak placed the Great Competition on the Mermaid Island, and then attracted the Sea Corpse Clan. The ancestor suddenly appeared and broke through...Then the Mermaid Island was arranged into a frontline headquarters, and the iron-clad iron Bucket size."

"Then, it declared war on the Sea Corpse Clan, spread forward step by step, captured the secondary island, and now attacks the Sea Corpse Clan itself."

"In this way, a line was formed on the Forbidden Sea, making the Seven Blood Pupils, which were originally very far away from the Wanggu Continent, become very close to the Wanggu Continent on the mainland of the Sea Corpse Clan..."

Xu Qing's eyes narrowed.

"Then what is the goal of the sect? Is fighting against the Sea Corpse Clan the whole story? Is it possible that fighting against the Sea Corpse Clan... is just a part of completing a deeper strategic goal."

The captain spoke softly.

"In the Sixth Peak, I saw a statue that does not belong to the Sea Corpse Clan and is not one of the nine... Corpse Ancestor statue. It is the power source of the Sixth Peak War Fortress."
