"It really is Dr. Lin Qi!" Luo Sha breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "Who in the universe doesn't know the name of Dr. Lin Qi? Even if I don't pay attention, I wouldn't not know the Doctor's name and appearance."

Lin Qi didn't comment, looking at the white-haired woman beside him.

His gaze carried confusion and interest.

"But she doesn't seem to know?"

I saw that the cold light condensed on Jingliu's sword hadn't dissipated, and the whole person was still in a state of readiness, as if she would soar into the air in the next second.

Obviously.

Just one sentence from Luo Sha couldn't make a top swordsman put down her sword.

Luo Sha broke into a cold sweat and continued to dissuade, "Jingliu! Put down the sword quickly; didn't we say before that in the case that Ms. Ruan Mei cannot be contacted, I'm afraid only Dr. Lin Qi can save that Foxian lady. And the one you see in front of you is the Doctor... in person?"

After speaking.

Luo Sha looked at Lin Qi again and explained, "Doctor, Jingliu... her situation is special, she hasn't woken up for long, so she doesn't know much about the situation in the universe, please forgive me."

Luo Sha was a bit nervous.

He rarely had this kind of emotion.

But there was no way.

The man who appeared in front of him had a reputation that was not ordinary.

The key is that he also has a dual identity, and neither is easy to deal with.

They could still think of ways to deal with an avatar of Phantylia.

But for Lin Qi, Luo Sha didn't have any idea of fighting at all.

Jingliu seemed to be still hesitating.

However, she could also see Luo Sha's nervousness.

Although she hadn't known Luo Sha for long, she also knew that this man was not the kind of person who liked to joke.

Luo Sha also had his own goals.

And his obsession was no less deep than her own.

So after thinking about it, Jingliu finally let the condensed moonlight dissipate and put down the sword in her hand.

Then she stared at Lin Qi with her red pupils.

Seeing this.

Luo Sha breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, it's best not to fight.

But he hadn't sorted out his mentality yet when Lin Qi's voice sounded again.

"Xianzhou person? Mara-struck? The state of your companion is truly interesting."

"Dr. Lin Qi really has eyes like torches; Jingliu... she really has only recently recovered from the Mara-struck state. As for how she recovered, you might have to ask her yourself; I don't know very well either." Luo Sha shook his head.

Lin Qi looked at Jingliu, only to see her also looking over, her gaze as cold as autumn water, seemingly without the intention of speaking.

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it; I can observe it myself."

"I guess..."

"It was a blessing from an Aeon, right?"

Lin Qi said with great interest.

Jingliu's cold and pretty face showed obvious astonishment.

Obviously.

She never expected Lin Qi to guess in this direction.

"Surprised?"

"But isn't this easy to guess?"

"According to you Xianzhou people, Mara-struck is a stubborn disease that appears due to longevity, and it is also a manifestation of the power of the Aeon of Abundance."

"Since you can break away from the Mara-struck state, and I didn't see the corresponding records when I was on the Xianzhou, then it's highly likely that it's only the blessing of another Aeon."

"I guess... it's the Aeon of Terminus!"

Lin Qi said casually.

Jingliu's gaze flickered, still not speaking.

Making it impossible to see what she was thinking.

But her appearance reflected the lack of calm in her heart.

Because Lin Qi was right.

It was indeed because of an Aeon that she was able to break free from the Mara-struck state.

It's just that...

She didn't know who that Aeon was either.

So it was Terminus?

Therefore, after being pointed out by Lin Qi, she couldn't remain silent anymore.

"Doctor, regarding my origin, I have reasons that are inconvenient to say; I am just a sinner."

"But I already know your origin, Jingliu, the former Sword Champion of the Luo Fu, one of the Cloud Quintet, whose whereabouts were unknown after the Imbibitor Lunae's rebellion, right?"

Lin Qi said with a light smile, stating Jingliu's identity.

This made Jingliu stunned again.

She didn't understand how Lin Qi knew.

Regarding her specific identity, Luo Sha actually didn't know particularly clearly either.

Could it be...

Was the information about her declassified on the Xianzhou?

No, it should be impossible.

After all, the crime she committed was such a serious one.

But if not, such confidential information shouldn't be known even by Lin Qi.

Thinking.

Lin Qi said, "You don't have to guess; I have a former judge of the Ten-Lords Commission under me, and she told me. Maybe you two know each other?"

"A judge of the Ten-Lords Commission... how did she become the Doctor's subordinate?"

Jingliu was even more confused.

With her status once on the Xianzhou, she knew the Ten-Lords Commission and the Shackling Prison too well; it could almost be said that they only go in and don't come out.

After becoming a judge inside, it is also difficult to adapt to the external environment.

It is even more impossible for the Ten-Lords Commission to release the judges inside casually.

Therefore.

After hearing this news, she was even more shocked.

Waking up, has the Luo Fu become like this?

What Lin Qi said was the truth.

He did indeed ask a judge of the Ten-Lords Commission, Xueyi.

Xueyi had worked in the Ten-Lords Commission for many years.

Naturally, she was clear about Jingliu.

According to the information provided by Xueyi, Lin Qi inferred that Jingliu had lived for at least 1,800 years.

Of course.

This has to count the time she fell into the Mara-struck state.

The true awake time certainly wasn't that long.

But it was also very exaggerated.

What made Lin Qi curious was how she recovered from the Mara-struck state, and whether it involved the power of time.

However, looking at Jingliu's state at this time, he couldn't ask anything for the time being.

Lin Qi turned to look at Luo Sha.

"And you? I see the secrets on you are not small either."

"Doctor, I am just a merchant, entrusted by someone to send something to the Xianzhou, and then I met Miss Jingliu on the road. Because we had the same goal, we traveled together until now." Luo Sha explained.

"Goal? Your goal is to send the remains of an Aeon to the Xianzhou?" Lin Qi's tone was mocking, "My relationship with the Xianzhou, although it is only average, can't be considered a cooperative relationship, but at least it can be considered friends. If a friend is in trouble, even if I don't go to help, I still have the time to give a reminder. By then, the thing you want to send will probably not be sent."

"This..."
