Outside of Time [Webnovel]

581 Enlightenment, Mosasaur (2)

“Who are you looking for?” The middle-aged Sword Holder frowned and slowly spoke.

Ning Yan hesitated but didn’t say Xu Qing’s name. Right now, he wasn’t sure if the other party would really come. If he mentioned his name but the latter didn’t come, he would become a joke.

In addition, he had undergone the reserve candidate assessment with these people at the same time. The competition for the top reserve candidate was intense, so it was inevitable that there would be some conflicts.

At that moment, there were three young and impetuous youths in the crowd. They were the people who had friction with him.

!!

When these three people saw that Ning Yan was anxious and didn’t mention the recommender, mockery flashed on their faces. Although it wasn’t that obvious, Ning Yan still saw it.

This expression made Ning Yan feel a little uncomfortable.

One of them even laughed softly.

“To be first in the reserve candidate assessment, but no one came to recommend him. We can see his character.”

Ning Yan fell silent.

The middle-aged Sword Holder was expressionless. He didn’t care about these hot-blooded youths’ words. There were many such people. After all, everyone had different personalities. Some were gloomy, while others were direct.

However, after becoming a Sword Holder, most of them would change.

Hence, he flipped through Ning Yan’s resume and noticed that the latter was from the Yinghuang Province. He lifted his head in surprise and glanced at Ning Yan.

“You’re from the same province as Brother Xu Qing?”

Ning Yan nodded.

Among the three reserve candidates who had conflicts with him, one of them chuckled.

“If Big Brother Xu Qinq, who has 100,000 feet light, is unwilling to recommend someone, it can really be seen that there’s indeed something wrong with a certain someone.”

“What’s the use of fighting so hard in the first place?”

“You guys have a death wish!” Ning Yan’s expression was gloomy as he looked over. The other party had provoked him several times. In addition, he was anxious at this moment, so the viciousness in his heart couldn’t help but rise.

“Why? Do you want to fight with us here?!” The three youths looked at Ning Yan with unfriendly gazes. They wanted to enrage Ning Yan.

Ning Yan gritted his teeth as the viciousness in his eyes gradually rose.

As for the middle-aged Sword Holder at the records office, he coldly watched this scene. Every time a reserve candidate assessment happened, something similar would happen. After all, there would naturally be conflicts in places with many people. Hence, he calmly spoke.

“If you want to fight, settle it outside before coming back.”

When the three youths heard this, they immediately rose into the air. One of them pointed at Ning Yan.

“Didn’t you steal our limelight? Do you dare to fight again?!”

“What you said isn’t right. Why wouldn’t Ning Yan dare? He wants to wait for his recommender, so he can’t fight with us. Right, Ning Yan? I’ve already thought of a reason for you to refuse.”

The other youth smiled and spoke.

A cold glint flashed in Ning Yan’s eyes. Just as he was about to fly out, a calm voice rang out from afar.

“Ning Yan, I was delayed by something and came a little late.”

As the voice rang out, a figure rapidly approached from the distant sky.

Under the sunlight, this person’s long hair fluttered in the wind. His white Daoist robe was whiter than snow. Coupled with his handsome face, everyone who saw him would instinctively focus on him.

It was Xu Qing.

Xu Qing didn’t agree to something easily. Once he agreed, he would definitely do it.

Since he had agreed to recommend Ning Yan, he wouldn’t deliberately stall for time. He had been busy comprehending the Dao Slaying Saber during this period of time, so he was late.

As for not liking Ning Yan, he still felt the latter unpleasant. However, since the captain felt that this person was useful, Xu Qing was prepared to observe more.

As soon as he arrived, the hearts of all the reserve candidates in the records office shook. All of their eyes revealed respect as they greeted him in unison. The hearts of the three youths who had a conflict with Ning Yan also trembled. They hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to continue acting rashly.

Xu Qing’s reputation in the Sword Holding Palace wasn’t small now and he was known as one of the monstrous geniuses of this batch. He even had a good relation with the other monstrous geniuses of this batch. Provoking one was equivalent to provoking everyone.

Moreover, now that all of them held important positions and had formed their own forces, no one was willing to offend them.

The middle-aged Sword Holder at the record office also laughed and stood up to welcome him.

Back then, when Xu Qing, Kong Xianglong, and the others were confronting the Yao family at the Sword Holding Palace, this person was among the many Sword Holders who came. He had met Xu Qing once and knew what Xu Qing and the others had done. He also admired them very much.

Ning Yan was even more excited. He quickly stepped forward. To him, Xu Qing’s voice was like the sound of nature and his figure was like a rainbow. The fluctuations of his emotions made him feel extremely grateful.

Xu Qing nodded at Ning Yan. After that, he cupped his fists and returned the greeting to the middle-aged Sword Holder.

“I’ll have to trouble Brother Zhou. I am here to recommend Ning Yan.”

When the Sword Holder heard Xu Qing call out his surname, his eyes immediately lit up. He thought to himself that this person was able to gain the acceptance of Kong Xianglong and others not only due to his 100,000 feet light, but also because of his character and behavior.

Many Sword Holders had gone to the Discipline Hall at that time. Although everyone had met each other later and Wang Chen and the others had introduced them, time was tight after all.

To be able to remember his surname in such a situation was an ability.

Hence, he laughed and spoke.

“Brother Xu Qing’s recommendation means that this Ning Yan has an upright personality.” After saying that, he immediately recorded for Ning Yan to pass. He then looked at Ning Yan with a stern gaze.

“Ning Yan, I hope that after you become a Sword Holder, you will do your job dutifully. Don’t embarrass Brother Xu Qing!”

Ning Yan hurriedly nodded.

Xu Qing didn’t stay any longer. After saying a few words to this Sword Holder surnamed Zhou, he bade farewell and left under the respectful gazes of everyone in the surroundings.
