Outside Of Time Chapter 1350 King Yuelan's Intentions

Chapter 1350 King Yuelan's Intentions

After Xu Qing sat down, the entire hall fell silent.

Tens of breaths later, as the representatives of the two races silently stood up and returned to their chairs, their auras completely reversed.

Facing Xu Qing, they were afraid, hateful, and shocked. Overall, fear and shock occupied the majority.

This was especially so for a few of them. They had witnessed Xu Qing's killing intent in the Mountains and Seas Region in the second segment.

In that situation, if Xu Qing wasn't h.e.l.lbent on killing Ji Dongzi, it would have been impossible for them to have any hope of surviving.

In the end, they luckily escaped.

In addition, Xu Qing's series of achievements in the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven could be said to have suppressed their current generation. Hence, to a certain extent, the Flame Moon's side understood how terrifying Xu Qing was better than the human race.

The battle with Flame Mystic was even more decisive, causing all the doubters on Flame Moon's side to be shaken.

Baize and Si'e were naturally well aware of this. In addition, they also saw some clues from Fan s.h.i.+shuang.

Fan s.h.i.+shuang was clearly avoiding Xu Qing…

Hence, at that moment, as Xu Qing sat there, Baize and Si'e felt bitter inwardly.

It was completely different for the human race. All the human cultivators were excited, especially when they noticed the current state of the nonhuman races who were incomparably arrogant just now.

The Eldest Prince wasn't surprised by this, and inwardly heaved a sigh of relief.

If it wasn't for the fact that he was extremely respectful of Xu Qing and didn't dare to personally suggest it to the Human Emperor, he would have long requested the Grand Tutor to step forward.

At this moment, he finally gained support. He lifted his chin and was in high spirits, but he didn't speak immediately.

'I have to endure it. When their pressure reaches a certain extent and they want to end today's negotiations, that will be the best time to make a move.'Ex(plore new ?ovels on novelbi?(.)com

When the Eldest Prince thought of this, he simply stood up and respectfully walked to Xu Qing's side. He personally poured tea for Xu Qing and knelt at the side like a student.

In reality, he was indeed a student.

As the Imperial Prince's Grand Tutor, Xu Qing was the teacher of all the imperial children. Any prince or princess had to obey him.

Xu Qing opened his eyes and glanced at the Eldest Prince beside him.

The Eldest Prince lowered his head.

Although Xu Qing didn't say anything, with his experience, he naturally saw through the Eldest Prince's thoughts. He didn't mind. He picked up the teacup to take a sip.

Time flowed by…

An hour pa.s.sed. Those from the human race who could partic.i.p.ate in this negotiation were naturally not stupid. They could all see the advantage at this moment and understood how to maximize it.

So they all kept silent, sitting without uttering a word.

King Yuelan simply meditated.

However, the pressure on Baize and Si'e was too great. They grumbled inwardly as they saw what was happening, but they couldn't do anything about it.

The invisible power that came from Xu Qing's ident.i.ty caused the pressure on them to grow greater and greater as time pa.s.sed.

Two hours later, the Heavenly King of the Baize Race sighed softly.

The Eldest Prince also sensed that the time was about right. Hence, he spoke to the representatives of the Baize and Si'e races.

"The areas occupied by your two races need to be returned within half a month after the agreement is signed. Everything needs to be like how they were. If there is destruction or plundering of resources, they will have to be returned."

"I've already agreed to your condition of how we redeem the captives, so I won't go back on my word!"

"As for the secret art transaction, it will be like what I said earlier. 30 for 1."

"If you agree, we can seal the agreement today and we can end this negotiation earlier. After all, it's been over a month."

The Eldest Prince spoke meaningfully.

When Baize and Si'e heard this, they sighed inwardly. In reality, this war couldn't continue under Flame Moon's orders.

However, according to their understanding of Flame Moon, under the premise of a truce, Flame Moon naturally wouldn't stop them from negotiating and obtaining benefits from the human race.

Similarly, if they couldn't obtain it, they couldn't blame others.

The sense of propriety in this was extremely important.

But now… gaining benefits was impossible.

Fan s.h.i.+shuang was clearly afraid of the Grand Mystic Heaven Xu Qing. In that case, if this dragged on, the outcome would probably be Fan s.h.i.+shuang leaving the human race's territory in order to end things early. It was very likely that the situation would become even worse then.

One had to know that over the past few days, Fan s.h.i.+shuang had impatiently urged them many times.

At the thought of this, the representatives of both sides looked at each other. In the end, they gritted their teeth and stood up to bow to Xu Qing before speaking to the Eldest Prince.

"Alright!"

"We will sign the agreement today!"

Seeing that things were progressing so smoothly, the Eldest Prince was excited. The other human cultivators were the same. Everyone immediately began to adjust the content of the agreement.

Xu Qing still had his eyes closed as he pondered over his comprehension.

Just like that, fifteen minutes pa.s.sed. The human race and the two races signed the contract. After that, Baize and Si'e bowed to Xu Qing again and left quickly.

At this moment, Xu Qing also opened his eyes and tactfully rejected everyone's invitation.

Just as he was about to leave the Foreign Affairs Pavilion, King Yuelan suddenly took a step forward.

"King Zhen Cang, please wait."

Xu Qing turned his head and looked at the only female cultivator among the Heavenly Kings.

"What's the matter, King Yuelan?"

"King Zhen Cang, after paying my respects to the ancestor, I'll be leaving the Imperial City and heading to the borders of the Soul Wave Heavenly Demon Race."

"I would like to invite King Zhen Cang to follow me and stay there for a period of time…"

Xu Qing frowned. The other party's words were an invitation but there was no reason behind it. It was so abrupt, especially when he thought of King Yuelan's reputation. How could Xu Qing agree?

Hence, he replied calmly.

"My cultivation is low and weak. It's meaningless for me to go. Also, I have other things to do."

Xu Qing tactfully rejected.

However, King Yuelan didn't care about Xu Qing's rejection and continued speaking.

"Although the Soul Wave Heavenly Demon Race isn't a powerful race, there are many resources in their race that are very useful for the rise of our human race. I strategize to find a reason there to incite this race to start a war."

"As a Heavenly King of the human race and with the ident.i.ty of Grand Mystic Heaven, King Zhen Yan's strength isn't important. What I need is your ident.i.ty as the Grand Mystic Heaven."

King Yuelan's words were as forceful as before, even making arrangements for Xu Qing.

Xu Qing had seen many Soul Acc.u.mulation experts but this was the first time he had seen someone like King Yuelan.

He decided not to bother with her and was about to leave.

King Yuelan frowned.

"King Zhen Cang, this matter is beneficial to the human race. Why are you refusing? Don't leave first. Let's talk in detail."

As she spoke, she actually lifted her hand and grabbed at Xu Qing.

With this grab, the surrounding laws instantly shone and a restraining force erupted.

When the Eldest Prince and the others who walked out of the main hall saw this scene, their expressions changed drastically. The Eldest Prince shouted anxiously.

"King Yuelan, what are you doing?!"

"Nothing, I am just asking King Zhen Cang to stay for a chat."

King Yuelan calmly spoke, but her hand didn't stop as she continued to grab.

The world trembled and the laws emitted by King Yuelan formed a large hand. Just as it was about to land on Xu Qing, a tender green vine suddenly danced out of Xu Qing's palm at an unbelievable speed.

The primordial intent directly spread out, and the scene of the starry sky also rose, transforming into an astonis.h.i.+ng might that lashed out at the large hand formed by the laws.

It was the Holy Heavenly Vine that Xu Qing had absorbed two months ago!

After two months of rearing, this vine could already show some strength and reveal its terrifying aspect. Its las.h.i.+ng actually ignored the laws.

With a boom, the large hand instantly collapsed and shattered into pieces.

Xu Qing coldly glanced at King Yuelan.

King Yuelan frowned and also looked at Xu Qing.

When the Eldest Prince and the others saw this, they hurriedly stepped forward to stop her. The Eldest Prince glared angrily at King Yuelan.

"King Yuelan, although you are a Heavenly King, you took the initiative to attack the Grand Tutor in the Imperial City. I will definitely report this matter to Father!"

King Yuelan didn't speak.

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes. He instinctively felt that King Yuelan's attack must contain deep meaning. However, he couldn't understand the truth for a moment. Hence, after some thought, he turned and was about to leave.

However, for some reason, King Yuelan actually moved past the Eldest Prince and flew to the sky.

"King Zhen Cang, I have no ill intentions toward you. I only made a move earlier to make you stay. Now, I'll still say the same thing. Stay. I'll talk to you about what I suggested just now."

As she spoke, King Yuelan lifted her right hand again. This time, as her cultivation circulated, more nomological powers gathered from all directions, forming a cloud of mist that transformed into a huge face that headed toward Xu Qing.

However, the instant it got close, a shocking sword intent surged from Xu Qing's body.

The shadow of the Emperor Sword flashed in the sky. When the sword landed, the fog face formed by the laws was instantly cut into two and dispersed.

The sword shadow didn't stop. It swooped down and slashed at King Yuelan.

At this moment, King Yuelan's calm expression from the initiate changed drastically.

"Emperor sword!!"

She rapidly retreated.

However, the sword shadow was like a hot knife through b.u.t.ter and its speed was astonis.h.i.+ng. Not only did it not slow down at all, but it sped up and was about to land.

At that moment, a exhale rang out from the void. King Zhen Yan's figure appeared between Xu Qing and King Yuelan. His back was facing Xu Qing, trying to use his body to block the sword.

Xu Qing admired King Zhen Yan, so he could only exhale when he saw this scene. With a wave of his hand, the sword shadow instantly disappeared and only the wind swept in all directions.

King Zhen Yan didn't turn around. Instead, he stared coldly at King Yuelan.

"I don't care if you really want King Zhen Cang to help you or if you strategize to use him as bait to obtain the victory of the war you want to start."

"Or maybe this is the faction behind you trying to probe something."

"However, King Yuelan, I'm warning you and the people behind you. If there's a next time, I'll suppress you!"

King Yuelan fell silent and turned to leave.

King Zhen Yan narrowed his eyes and calmly spoke.

"I'm saying that I will suppress you the next time, I didn't say that you can depart without paying any price this time. One arm. Moreover, unless a war breaks out, in the next hundred years, you can't restore it!"

In the air, King Yuelan paused. She raised her right hand and directly tore off her left arm before leaving.
