~7 min read 1,204 words

One after another, Xianzhou people stood at the entrance of the Minghuoshang Society, watching the arriving Judge Hearing Xue Yi and whispering, a trace of fear in everyone's eyes.

Especially the Xianzhou people, for whom the name of the Ten-Lords Commission was like thunder to the ears.

"Judge, Judge Hearing Xue Yi!"

Seeing the arriving Hearing Xue Yi, the little fox-eared maid beside Lin Mo looked nervous and hurriedly stepped forward: "I don't know what business Judge Hearing Xue Yi has coming to the Minghuoshang Society, I will notify Miss Tingyun right away."

She knew that if it weren't for an ordinary matter, people from the Ten-Lords Commission wouldn't visit for no reason.

Once they visit, it is very likely that someone will be taken away.

But their Minghuoshang Society is almost all Foxians.

Aside from the Foxians, there are only some outworlders.

"No need to be nervous, I have talked with Miss Tingyun."

Seeing the somewhat nervous little maid, Hearing Xue Yi shook her head, and the little fox-eared maid breathed a sigh of relief; that's great, it seems it's not a big deal.

"It's mainly that I want to find the guest of your society to chat."

While speaking, Hearing Xue Yi looked at Lin Mo and said: "Hello, can we chat?"

She came to the Minghuoshang Society precisely for this person.

"Certainly."

Hearing Hearing Xue Yi's words, Lin Mo nodded gently.

If Lin Mo hadn't guessed wrong, it was likely that he had been noticed by Hearing Xue Yi when they met earlier.

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Hearing Xue Yi sat down in front of Lin Mo and said, "Hello, I am Hearing Xue Yi, a Judge of the Ten-Lords Commission. First, I would like to thank you for saving the Xianzhou people; I saw everything when you stepped in to resolve the matter with those two mara-struck."

"A small effort."

Lin Mo shook his head; if it weren't for the Mara-Struck soldier rushing toward him, he wouldn't have taken action.

He didn't believe the Xianzhou had no way to deal with it, it was just a matter of time.

"I saw you frown when I was at Cloudford just now, I mainly came to ask if you discovered any clues."

Judge Hearing Xue Yi said calmly: "If you have any clues, could you tell me? This clue is very important to my Ten-Lords Commission."

Just from the ability Lin Mo displayed, Hearing Xue Yi knew that with Lin Mo's participation, her Ten-Lords Commission would definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Therefore, she was direct with Lin Mo; the top priority was still investigating the matter.

As expected.

Hearing Hearing Xue Yi's words, Lin Mo nodded gently: "Everyone on the Luo Fu has the obligation to help the Ten-Lords Commission. I did discover some clues, but I don't know if they are the clues your Ten-Lords Commission needs."

Lin Mo knew that on the Xianzhou, no matter who it was, as long as the Ten-Lords Commission was handling a case, one needed to help them and cooperate with them.

And the Ten-Lords Commission could unconditionally conscript people; one could imagine how important the Ten-Lords Commission was to the Xianzhou.

Now that Hearing Xue Yi had visited, she must have come for some clues.

He didn't have anything to hide, nor was there any need to hide it.

As he spoke, Lin Mo said what he had seen, and Hearing Xue Yi stood up subconsciously upon hearing it.

Found it!

What Lin Mo saw was exactly what they were looking for!

That guy really hadn't cleaned up thoroughly.

Calming her mood, Hearing Xue Yi looked at Lin Mo earnestly: "If possible, I hope you can help us and act with us. Afterward, I will record your merit, which will be of great benefit to you on the Xianzhou."

Hearing Xue Yi knew Lin Mo's general information and issued an invitation to Lin Mo once again.

"As for helping, that's not a question..."

Hearing Hearing Xue Yi's words, Lin Mo was not surprised at all and nodded: "After all, I can't just help you blindly. I need to know some things."

"Since you choose to help us, it's fine to tell you. There are alchemists in the Cauldron Division secretly conducting cruel experiments related to the power of Abundance, as well as experiments that can make people become Pathstriders. Many people have already gone missing on the Xianzhou so far."

Hearing Xue Yi said calmly: "Even though the Ten-Lords Commission reacted immediately, they still let the other party escape, especially since the other party is very familiar with the Cauldron Division, stole a curio from the Cauldron Division, and destroyed many things in the Cauldron Division. Besides capturing that guy, the curio must also be found back."

"So the preliminary judgment is that there is an inside man for him in the Cauldron Division. The Balance Commission is investigating, while we are investigating that guy. You shouldn't be unaware of the terror of the power of Abundance."

"Moreover, some areas of the Cauldron Division are now blocked off. There are many Mara-Struck soldiers there, and the Cloud Knights are resolving it."

"It's actually cruel experiments related to the power of Abundance."

Hearing Hearing Xue Yi's words, the little fox-eared maid who had been listening on the side turned pale.

She knew the terror of the power of Abundance. Once, in a star system, a nanny robot had a sudden whim to make Abundance nectar into cheese to satisfy its little master's seemingly endless appetite.

Unexpectedly, the nectar cheese began to grow on its own. The nanny robot and the master put in all their effort, but the speed of digestion couldn't keep up with the speed of the cheese's growth.

They had no choice but to ask for help from the passing Mourning Actors and take a gondola to escape to another star system.

Even now, there is still a star system in the galaxy that is stuffed tightly with delicious cheese, without leaving a single gap.

If any power of Abundance appeared on the Xianzhou, it would definitely be a big trouble for the Xianzhou.

"The power of Abundance?"

Hearing Hearing Xue Yi's words, Lin Mo suddenly became interested.

So this investigation might allow him to come into contact with things like the power of Abundance.

He was quite interested in this thing, the power of an Aeon.

Aeons cannot be determined as good or evil. To become a certain Aeon, one needs to follow the Path and go deeper and deeper.

That someone in the Cauldron Division was conducting such experiments, Lin Mo was not surprised at all; after all, there was Dan Shu.

With Dan Shu's high-ranking status, such experiments must have been done quite a few times.

But thinking about it, it made sense.

As for the current Disciples of Sanctus Medicus, he believed they must have created the technique to trigger Mara-Struck.

The Mara-Struck soldier that the Cloud Knight he saw earlier had turned into was far beyond ordinary Mara-Struck soldiers, and the clues that appeared afterward also pointed to those eerie clues. Those disgusting things were indeed products of experiments. ===== CHAPTER 37 =====
