Outside Of Time

Chapter 1161 The Wind Descends With Deadly Blades, the Water Overflows, and Life Hangs by a Thread

”Young Master Xu, we are honored by your visit. I apologize for any shortcomings in our hospitality”

”If Young Master is free, can we move to another place?”

”An elder of my sect has invited you over for a chat.”

The old grannyʼs words were polite. After saying that, she looked at Xu Qing inquiringly.

When everyone saw this scene, they were all surprised.

They were all aware of Xu Qingʼs background. Hence, they had only toasted him previously and didnʼt go overboard. They didnʼt truly tear off each otherʼs facades.

After all, there was no need for them to do this for a woman.

However, in their intelligence reports, Xu Qing had nothing to do with the Mortal World Forgetful Tower which was a super sect of the human race, and had a god of the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race backing it.

Their attitude was ambiguous.

Even the Human Emperor could only tacitly agree to this.

Hence, it was shocking that this sect was so polite to Xu Qing. What caused many guesses was the sect elder that the old granny mentioned.

Everyoneʼs gazes flickered. The prince surnamed Peng also narrowed his eyes. His attitude toward Xu Qing was the same as the various forces. He didnʼt offend but he wasnʼt close either and maintained a certain distance.

Hence, when he saw Ling Yao sitting beside Xu Qing earlier, although there were waves in his heart, he didnʼt have any intense reaction. His identity and the background of this Mortal World Tower made him restrain himself.

However, his prestige had been somewhat damaged, so he tacitly allowed the person beside him to toast Xu Qing.

Just now, when he saw that it was about enough, he didnʼt want to intensify this matter, so he stood up and prepared to leave. However, the arrival of the old granny caused him to have more thoughts about Xu Qing.

Meng Yunbai and Huang Kun were also shocked as they looked at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing sighed inwardly. He had more or less guessed the answer. In reality, when Meng Yunbai introduced the Mortal World Tower and the god it worshiped, Xu Qing already understood. However, this was the Imperial City of the human race after all.

According to his understanding of Crimson Goddess, worshiping a god and god descent were different.

In addition, after experiencing the event in the Moon Offering together, Xu Qing knew that Star Flame High God wasnʼt an enemy at least for now. As for the future, it was hard to say.

This was also the reason why Xu Qing still chose to come here.

Since he had been discovered, Xu Qing pondered for a moment before cupping his fists toward the old granny and agreeing to head there.

Just like that, under everyoneʼs gazes, Xu Qing and the old granny left. Ling Yao also left with them.

After Xu Qing left, everyone had different thoughts and left one after another. They would inform their families immediately about what had happened today. One could imagine that the various forces would weigh Xu Qing even more heavily.

The imperial son surnamed Peng also fell into deep thought. As he looked at the teleportation array Xu Qing left in, a strange glint appeared in his eyes.

Meng Yunbai blinked. He originally thought that he already knew Xu Qingʼs details very well. However, now that he looked at it, what he knew was only the surface information.

Under the surface, Xu Qing had even more hidden cards.

”Interesting...”

Meng Yunbai smiled and left as well.

At the same time, Xu Qing followed the old granny and teleported out of the immortal pool paradise. When he reappeared, he was already outside the ancestral hall in the depths of the Mortal World Tower.

Here, the old granny respectfully bowed to the ancestral hall and took a few steps back, indicating for Xu Qing to enter alone.

Looking at the gate of the ancestral hall, Xu Qing took a deep breath and stepped forward to push it slightly. The gate slowly opened and a pink light spread out, enveloping Xu Qingʼs figure. Xu Qing also saw the clay fox enshrined in the altar of the ancestral hall.

Looking at the clay fox, Xu Qing cupped his fists and bowed.

”Greetings, High God.”

Laughter echoed in the ancestral hall.

”Stinky brother, you were so reserved during the Moon Offering. I didnʼt expect you to come to such a place.

How could I not know what this place is? Fortunately, I woke up in time. Otherwise, you would have been devoured by those sluts.”

Xu Qing remained silent.

”Stinky brother, are you surprised to see me? Are you happy?”

Xu Qing shook his head.
