Outside Of Time

Xu Qing glanced at him but didn't speak. He then sat cross-legged at the side.

Seeing that Xu Qing was ignoring him, the captain smiled and took out an apple to take a bite. He even threw one to Xu Qing.

After Xu Qing took it, he looked at the apple in his hand and then at the captain meaningfully.

The captain smiled.

Xu Qing closed his eyes and concealed himself.

Time passed day by day and everything was as usual. After those maids woke up, although they were puzzled, they didn't dare to ask when they saw that their master didn't have any abnormalities.

The captain's attire didn't reveal any flaws. It was as though he had really asked a lot of things from Nether Fairy and acted like her perfectly.

In the end, even Xu Qing could not see any flaws.

On the day when the cleansing of Nether Fairy concluded, the sky was adorned with a myriad of auspicious signs and brilliant lights. A grand procession, heralding the arrival of the bridal escort, approached from the horizon.

It was still the bridal sedan that looked like a huge skull, carried by 32 lion race cultivators wearing red robes. They were surrounded by numerous attendants playing joyful music.

The procession, consisting of hundreds of people, arrived outside the Yin-Yang Flower Sect. They were here to escort Nether Fairy to the Mystic Life Sect, as today was the day of the grand wedding.

Yunxia, who had been absent for a long time, appeared today. She stood outside the spirit pool, watching Nether Fairy as she walked out, a smile on her face.

Having undergone a month-long cleansing, Nether Fairy clearly had better complexion, especially now that she had changed into new attire, making her appear even more enchanting.

She wore a long crimson dress, a phoenix coronet on her head, and just the right amount of rouge on her face. This made her exude a captivating allure, drawing countless gazes.

Outside the Spirit Pool, she bid farewell to Yunxiazi, and then, surrounded by the attending maids and guards living around, she left the Yin Yang Flower Sect and boarded the skull bridal sedan.

After a uniform deep shout, the 32 burly men lifted the bridal sedan and strode forward in the air, heading straight for the horizon.

The music continued in the surroundings and flowers continued to be scattered. Wherever they passed, all the cultivators in the Unending Mountain Range would cast sidelong glances.

Today, all the sects in the Unending Mountain Range were invited to the Mystic Life Sect to participate in the wedding ceremony.

However, regardless of whether it was the departing bridal escort team or the group of disciples in the Yin Yang Flower Sect, no one discovered that at this moment, a meaningful laugh echoed leisurely in the twin peaks.

The source of the laughter was a massive cave inside the twin peaks.

The cave was quite extensive, as if it had hollowed out the entire mountain from top to bottom. At the top of the cave, there was an old man with disheveled hair, dressed in a colorful robe, meditating cross-legged.

The old man had a withered body that resembled skeletal remains, but he didn't exude an aura of death. Instead, he seemed full of vitality, with a subtle ripple of Nihility energy swirling around him, making it difficult to discern exactly.

Below him was a scene that was enough to shock everyone who saw it.

It was a huge projection of a terrain. Outsiders might find it difficult to recognize it at first glance, but the people who lived here could instantly recognize that this projection was of the Unending Mountain Range.

Other than its size, everything else was exactly the same.

Every blade of grass, tree, mountain, and stone on it, including the birds in the sky, the city at the foot of the mountain, and the sect buildings, were all in line with the outside world.

The projections of all things that existed in the Unending Mountain Range appeared here.

It also included all the living beings!

Be it mortals or cultivators, it was all the same.

Moreover, it was moving as though this place was a real-time miniature of the entire Unending Mountain Range.

Even Xu Qing's group along with the bridal escort team that had left the Yin Yang Flower Sect were projected here.

What was even more astonishing was that each projection of living beings was connected to a thread, as if representing their fates, floating within the cave.

The countless threads appeared incredibly eerie, and the most peculiar aspect was the seated old man in the multicolored robe at the summit. He was continuously waving his hands.

Under his control, the threads from all living beings in the Unending Mountain Range came into contact with each other as they swayed.

Unfated connections that shouldn't have happened were formed, unexpected emotions arose, and inexplicable relationships were created.

The fates of all living beings were altered, and life trajectories were influenced. Everything had to follow the old man's intentions, as if the Unending Mountain Range had become a stage for a play.

The old man was the creator of this show. Every existence in the show was a character he had created.

Although they retained their original memories and personalities, they had to follow his script to live out the rest of their lives. In doing so, countless sparks of life were born, releasing brilliant light like fireworks, ultimately forming one dancing butterfly after another, all flying in different directions.

Some danced in the mountain caves, while others shuttled through the mountain rocks and flew toward the outside world.

Those dancing butterflies emitted a strange power. Wherever they passed, ethereal dust would envelop everything.

Occasionally, some outsiders would appear in this area. However, when they walked into the range of the Unending Mountain Range, their projection would appear here. Threads would appear above their heads and they would become a character in the old man's play.

Their fates would also be given a new mission at that moment.

Occasionally, the old man would stand up from his cross-legged position and move around in a strange posture in the cave.

His limbs waved and the threads of all living beings swayed intensely. His expressions changed and the fates of all things instantly intertwined. Scenes of love and hate stories also appeared.
