Outside Of Time

759 Human Race’s Regional Treasure, Sun of Dawn! (4)

“I have to sweep Captain Lei’s grave, pay my respects to Grandmaster Bai’s grave, and also wipe Lord Sixth’s tombstone.”

“There are too many things to do. Also, I wonder how Huang Yan is doing now. I still haven’t been able to confirm his identity.”

“Ancestor Xue Lianzi is getting old.”

“It’s been a long time since I saw Senior Brother Zhang San, Yanyan, and Ding Xue.”

“I have so many things to do. I really can’t continue staying in the county capital or do anything rash.” Xu Qing took a big gulp of wine.

“That’s right, that’s how it is.”

“My cultivation level is too weak. I can’t shoulder the mountain. I participated in the war of Fenghai County and have no regrets about this place.”

“Sword Holder… I might not be suitable for it, but it’s fine. I’ve struggled to survive alone in this cruel world since I was young. There are many things that I can’t control.”

“My dream since I was young was to survive and live well…”

Xu Qing lowered his head and continued to drink until there were only seven days left for a month to end.

This day was also the day of the grand ceremony.

Xu Qing originally didn’t intend to go. He wanted to wait until seven days later before leaving with the captain.

However, for some reason, when the bell of Fenghai County rang and the command sword vibrated, he still instinctively put down the wine flask and silently walked out of the Sword Pavilion. He flew to the city and walked to the square where the souls of Fenghai County’s heroes were once honored.

There were many people here but they were all standing in perfect order.

All the cultivators from the three palaces had arrived, totaling hundreds of thousands of people gathered here. Each one wore an excited expression, dressed in brand new garments, with hopeful eyes.

The same was true for the Deputy Palace Masters of the three palaces. Their worries dissipated, and even the Sword Holders who had participated in the war had excitement in their eyes.

The human race had experienced a great victory and possessed their own regional treasure. They were no longer prey. This series of news caused them to be in extremely high spirits.

Moreover, half of the Holy Wave Large Region now belonged to the human race. Such a flourishing age hadn’t been seen for a long time.

Not to mention that after the negotiations in the coming days, the Holy Wave Race would merge with the human race. It was equivalent to the human race having an additional region from now on, marking a historic moment that had not happened for tens of thousands of years.

As for Fenghai County, it would welcome the new county governor that everyone wanted. Everything seemed to be developing beautifully.

The captain, Kong Xianglong, Qing Qiu, and Ning Yan were all in the crowd.

After seeing Xu Qing, the captain went forward and wrapped his arms around Xu Qing’s neck. He took a sniff and had a surprised expression.

“What’s wrong? Previously, I sent you a voice transmission. You said that you were in closed-door cultivation. Why do you smell like you drank a lot of alcohol?”

Xu Qing shook his head and smiled.

“I’m fine.”

The captain was puzzled. Just as he was about to continue asking, the bell rang and the golden dragon in the sky spat out multicolored light. The Seventh Prince, wearing a yellow robe and a crown adorned with nine jade tassels, descended from the sky with an air of superiority.

His majestic steps were imposing, and his tall figure displayed extraordinary charisma.

His arrival instantly elicited cheers from hundreds of thousands of people on the square.

“Forever victory!”

“Forever victory!”

“Forever victory!”

As the Seventh Prince smiled and nodded, he walked towards the platform. Behind him followed dozens of people, each one wearing official robes.

Among them were the generals of the three palaces, the generals and commanders of the imperial army, and even the masked General Blood Nightmare, who was responsible for the exploration in the Immortal Forbidden.

Other than them, there was also the Deputy Governor!

He remained as usual, with a gentle smile on his face and a compassionate look in his eyes. One could faintly sense a hint of emotion and gratification within him, as if he felt relieved and pleased with the great victory of the human race.

They walked through the sky and approached the platform. Eventually, they stood near the platform, with only the Seventh Prince taking the steps to reach the highest point of the platform. With his back facing the majestic statue of the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether, he looked out toward the vast land below.

In an instant, the hundreds of thousands of cultivators under the platform fell silent. All of them had solemn expressions as they looked at the prince and the statue of the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether behind him.

Xu Qing also lifted his head. As he stared at this scene, his heart trembled and struggled with conflicting emotions.

Xu Qing had already grown accustomed to it. These twenty-three days, he had lived like this. At this moment, he wanted to drink, but he had no wine, so he murmured softly in his mind.

‘After the ceremony ends, I have to buy more medicinal herbs.’

‘I have to exchange the remaining military contributions as soon as possible in the next few days. It will probably be a long time before I come here again.’

‘Hmm, I also have to buy some magic artifacts and other items.’

Xu Qing tried his best to think about what else he had to do before leaving. While he was suppressing the struggles in his heart, the Seventh Prince, who was standing on the platform, cupped his fists and bowed to the hundreds of thousands of people on the ground.

“The present of Fenghai County has been safeguarded by me, and also by all of you. It is what we have protected together!”

“The victory belongs to me, but it belongs to you more. It belongs to the soldiers who fought at the front line!”

“Therefore, at today’s ceremony, I want to pay my respects to you first, and you will pay your respects to the heroic souls with me!”

The Seventh Prince’s expression was solemn. After he finished speaking, he turned toward the direction of the battlefield and bowed deeply.

His words caused waves in the hearts of everyone present. They instinctively cupped their fists and bowed.

“I hope that our human race will be safe forever. I hope that our human race will regain its glory!”

The voice of the Seventh Prince echoed, causing the heavens and earth to rumble, and auspicious signs filled the sky!
