Outside Of Time

The voice, tender and seductive, seemed like wisps of silk, drifting in the surroundings. It entered the ears and penetrated the soul, instinctively causing a sense of ripples and enchantment.

Xu Qing frowned and looked at Li Youfei.

Li Youfei was stunned. He hurriedly shook his head and blurted out.

"Not me… I lost it long ago when I was at the Qi Condensation Realm."

The clay fox glanced at Li Youfei in disdain and calmly spoke.

"Where did this dirty thing come from!"

After saying that, she continued to glance at Xu Qing. A hint of charm appeared in her eyes as though she could see through Xu Qing's disguise.

"He's actually so handsome. My heart is pounding."

The clay fox stood up, descended from the shrine, and, with a sway and a graceful movement, transformed into a charming and alluring young woman.

As she walked, her surging twin peaks caused waves of excitement, and her slender waist, like a gourd, paired with her raised hips, left Li Youfei breathless, with a racing heart, instinctively exclaiming that she was a seductress.

Especially with that semi-concealing red veil she was wearing, it appeared as if it could slip off her at any moment.

Her glistening skin and well-defined figure, swaying in such a seductive manner, exuded a desire to get closer and left an impression that could take root and blossom in others' hearts.

Xu Qing's gaze was cold, and he recognized that this seductive cultivator was also in the Nascent Soul stage. At this moment, the shadow had already spread from under his feet. Just then, as the woman descended from the shrine, she paused, lightly stepping on the ground.

The shadow instantly trembled and rolled back. Xu Qing's gaze froze.

The woman licked her lips and smiled.

"Young Master, although we are both in the Nascent Soul stage, you don't understand my background and origins, and I don't want to use my power to overwhelm you. I also don't wish to force such an adorable little cutie like you. It would be a mood-killer."

"So, we can discuss everything."

"Name a price."

Xu Qing remained silent. This was his first encounter with such a situation. Meanwhile, Ling'er had already popped her head out of his collar, looking rather puffed up with anger. Her eyes held a fierce glare, and the scales on her body stood on end as she fixed her gaze firmly on the woman.

The woman paid no attention to Ling'er and let her gaze travel down Xu Qing's face until she reached his feet. Then, she raised her eyes to meet his gaze and couldn't resist licking her lips.

"Big Sister won't treat you badly."

As she spoke, she took out a gourd and shook it before speaking.

"There are nine curse-resolving pills here, though there were originally ten of them. Last time, someone bought one with 20 red heavenly fire crystals but I can give them all to you. What do you think?"

Xu Qing was startled.

The woman observed Xu Qing's expression, and as she saw his reaction, her excitement grew. She then waved her hand and retrieved a silver bone fragment, smiling as she spoke.

"This is the bone pill of an Ancient Spirit Race almighty. It's very beneficial to your little snake. Do you want it?"

Ling'er was also stunned. After that, she gritted her teeth and continued to glare angrily, resisting the urge to look at the bone.

The woman chuckled and thought about it before taking out another item. This was a golden human organ in the shape of a crescent moon. It looked like a kidney.

"This is a treasure. Back in the day, a madman took a bite out of the Crimson Goddess, and then his body was torn apart. Someone gave me this kidney as a gift. If you agree to spend a few days with me, after that, you can consume it and replenish your body's deficiencies."

Xu Qing looked at the kidney and was stunned again.

Ling'er was nervous.

Li Youfei was at a loss. He suddenly felt envious of Xu Qing.

Seeing that Xu Qing didn't respond, the woman sighed.

"Young people don't know the big sister's charm, mistaking a little snake for a treasure."

"Very well, Young Master, take good care of your yang essence. If you ever change your mind, you can come back here to find me. Our deal will always stand."

The woman turned around, swaying her waist seductively, displaying her alluring figure, and walked back to the shrine, where she transformed once again into the clay fox. The clay figures around her remained expressionless and continued to move forward with the shrine.

The cold wind blew and they passed through the valley, disappearing into the distance.

The valley fell into silence.

Xu Qing looked in the direction the clay fox had left in. A hint of contemplation appeared in his eyes.

Ling'er looked at Xu Qing nervously. Li Youfei didn't know what to say. His heart was filled with endless complexity. He felt that after he left the green sand desert, the things that happened every day were unbelievable.

"Brother Xu Qing…" Ling'er whispered.

"There's no curse on her," Xu Qing calmly said.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ling'er heaved a sigh of relief. When Li Youfei heard this, his heart trembled.

"Master, you mean… she's from another region?"

Xu Qing shook his head. This clay fox had arrived too suddenly, so he couldn't tell if the other party was really passing by or if she had specially come here.

Moreover, the items the other party took out were extraordinary. What she said about a curse-resolving pill being bought made Xu Qing a little hesitant. He didn't know if it was the one he had exchanged for in the Moon Rebel Hall.

And that kidney…

Xu Qing hesitated. However, no matter what, this wasn't a place to stay for long. Hence, he turned and sped in the opposite direction. Li Youfei hurriedly followed behind and they soon left the valley.

Time flowed by and very soon, half a month passed.

During this half a month, Xu Qing followed the parrot's guidance and continued on his way. However, every day, he would leave some time to study Li Youfei. After obtaining inspiration from him, he would attempt to modify the curse-resolving pill.

At first, Li Youfei was still very nervous. However, as the days passed, he gradually became indifferent.

He swallowed several curse-resolving pills every day, making him feel that he wouldn't be able to afford them no matter how many times he sold himself.
