Outside Of Time

In the Seven Blood Eyes’ main city, the moonlight spread out on the ground like sand.

Xu Qing stepped on the moonlight and continued forward.

Although his cultivation had reached the Perfected Qi Condensation Realm, his previous injuries were still there. Xu Qing was as vigilant as when he had just arrived at the Seven Blood Eyes.

Moreover, he had the life lantern on him, so he was extremely vigilant. His right hand seemed to sway naturally as he moved but in reality, whenever there was any movement, his current posture would allow him to instantly take out the black iron stick.

This was the experience Xu Qing had gained from living in the Seven Blood Eyes. Being a needle in cotton was the way to survive. Unless there was a goal, he couldn’t reveal his edge casually.

In addition, the experience in the Seven Blood Eyes also taught Xu Qing a way to relax his body the more vigilant he was.

He had discovered that just like back then in the slums and the scavenger campsite, when his body was tense, it seemed like he could instantly attack but in reality, the movements would be a little slow.

The true method was for his body to relax and his mind to be filled with vigilance. In this way, outsiders wouldn’t be able to see anything and he only needed a thought to move his body instantly.

These were all techniques he had learned and had unknowingly changed many of his behaviors. It was just that Xu Qing was still too young. He still couldn’t compare to his captain who could perfectly hide his expressions.

However, Xu Qing wouldn’t forcefully imitate it. Everything was done according to his instincts. As he sped forward, he was getting closer and closer to Zhang San’s transportation department.

Just as he passed by a place, Xu Qing suddenly stopped in his tracks and abruptly turned his head to look behind him. Coldness flashed in his eyes.

Under his gaze, a small and skinny figure slowly walked out from a distant corner. It was none other than the mute youth.

The Seven Blood Eyes’ Daoist robe was still wide on his body. The dog skin coat inside still made him look very bloated. However, unlike before, there was an additional badge on his Daoist robe. This was the symbol of an official member of the Homicide Department.

He appeared in the distance and quickly glanced at Xu Qing. After that, he crouched. His posture wasn’t that of attacking but more like he was following and protecting.

Xu Qing stared at the mute youth and looked at the badge on his Daoist robe. Xu Qing had read the file on this mute before and knew that the other party had been only a collaborative member when he first entered the Homicide Department. Now, he had become an official. He slowly spoke.

“I don’t like to be followed.”

The mute youth fell silent before retreating and disappearing into the night again.

Only then did Xu Qing retract his gaze. He didn’t care if the other party had good intentions or ill intentions. Right now, he wasn’t in the mood to judge. However, if the other party still followed him after he had clearly told him, he would kill him.

Xu Qing continued to move.

Not long later, Xu Qing arrived at the Transportation Department. From afar, he saw Zhang San taking inventory. Clearly, after he returned from the competition, Zhang San was worried his treasures would be stolen.
