Luo Yi dared not respond to the Yuan Ying cultivator's words.

Lo Yi frantically waved his hands, "No no no, I didn't mean to feud with both of you!"

That Yuan Ying cultivator's face was ferocious, "Young Master, they dare not kill you, you are the Young Master of the Luos Family in Zhongzhou!"

If something happens to you, it will cost them their entire clan to compensate!

Seeing the void crack open, this man's nascent soul could turn and escape, so he wasted a few more words.

He thought he still had a chance to make a comeback.

However, just as he turned around, he suddenly discovered that a fissure in the void had vanished.

His Yuanying widened his eyes, abruptly turning his head to look at Lin Qi, his face full of astonishment.

"You... you are clearly a Jindan cultivator!"

Lin Qi raised her foot with a smirk, and in the blink of an eye, she was standing before this person's nascent infant stage. An invisible pressure enveloped this space.

"How is that? Who says a Golden Core cultivator can't control spatial power?"

Do you really think that the private kitchens of Master Taiji and Master Jin'an over the years have been empty?

Lin Qi often ran to other venerables' presences to eavesdrop on their lessons, even the Mahayana venerable of Bihai Pavilion couldn't escape her clutches.

Under the guidance of a group of great Mahayana masters, she understands a bit of spatial power and can close spatial rifts.

Isn't that surprising?

This person's Yuanying eyes widened, as if he had seen a ghost.

His gaze fell on Lin Qi's blood-stained Di Huang sword, and he suddenly pointed at her, "This sword... This sword..."

Lin Qi's mind turned, instinctively feeling something was wrong. He clenched his empty palm.

An intangible palm condensed within the void, its power exerted with her movements, instantly crushing the man's Nascent Soul.

A tremendous explosion reverberated through the air, startling cultivators for hundreds of miles around.

Such a big commotion must mean that cultivators of the Yuan Ying stage or even higher are participating in the fight.

There was both curiosity and fear in everyone's hearts.

No one knew that a nascent soul cultivator had died silently at the hands of a Jindan mid-stage cultivator, not even his nascent soul could escape.

If it gets out, Lin Qi's reputation will soar to even greater heights.

Lin Qi stood on the spot, pondering the man's final expression.

He looked at the Imperial Phoenix Sword, with an expression of sudden realization. Did he recognize the Imperial Phoenix Sword?

Lin Qi herself actually felt a little something.

When she was crossing the Heavenly Earth Immortal Spring, she saw weapons of several venerables, among which there were divine swords with astonishing power.

Even compared to the Emperor's Phoenix Sword, it was not inferior in the slightest, except that the wielder lacked the air of authority.

It is explained that the Emperor Phoenix Sword can also reach the level of a divine weapon.

This sword was forged from the phoenix bone of her mother's clan's young master. It contains information about her mother.

But Gong Shaojun is now in the upper realm.

Even if a cultivator from the Central Plains were extremely skilled, they would still only be a lower realm cultivator. How could they possibly know about the situation of Palace Young Master from the upper realm?

Then it must be... her mother has been to Zhongzhou.

It's actually something you could have guessed.

The two southern continents are notorious for being barren lands in the Cangwu Realm. Among them, the desolate city is one of the worst districts in Nan Zhou.

If her mother had never traveled, where did the treasures in Huang Yu's bracelet come from?

She was a reincarnation, it's impossible for her to bring anything from the upper realm.

Then it must have been collected from the Cangwu Realm.

Lin Qi was very sure that her mother had been to Zhongzhou and probably made some name for herself there.

The Emperor's Sword very likely was forged by the swordsmiths of Zhongzhou, and it might even have been renowned there.

Now that the North and South Mountains have undergone changes, many cultivators from all over the world have been attracted here. If there's one cultivator like Luo Yi from Zhongzhou, there will be a second, and countless more.

To avoid being targeted by these cultivators from the Central Continent, Lin Qi decided to use the Zhenshen Blade in future battles.

……

Seeing Lin Qi pinch a Yuanying to pieces with one hand, Luo Yi no longer had any other thoughts. All he wanted was to quickly send Lin Qi and Tan Yueqing away.

He saw Lin Qi's gaze and his soul almost flew out.

Hurry and take out your storage magical artifact.

"I'll give you all my treasures, please don't kill me!"

He turned his head and snarled at those Jindan cultivators, "You all better hand over your storage bags quickly!"

He passed a storage pouch to Lin Qi while shoving the rest of the pills into his own mouth.

He was probably afraid of bleeding to death.

The Golden Core cultivators who had been yelled at only felt immense shame and all wore sullen expressions.

A group of cultivators at the late stage of the Golden Core realm and a Nascent Soul cultivator were actually defeated by two cultivators at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, and even robbed by them.

If this gets out, will they even still be human?

Anyone with a shred of backbone will probably fight them to the death.

Alas, the young master is truly too timid and cowardly.

How can a servant be the master of their master?

This group of Jindan cultivators could only obey.

"Hold on!" Lin Qi said, stopping her and glancing lightly at Luo Yi, whose face had drained of all color.

"I'm not someone who is greedy and wants everything. I only take what belongs to me, and I don't need anything more."

Lin Qi followed suit and took two storage rings from the ground, leaving the rest to Luo Yi.

As for the belongings of those Golden Core cultivators, she didn't take anything.

If all the jokes were taken seriously, Lin Qi would have to face the wrath of over forty late-stage Jindan cultivators.

This is not the same as killing that Nascent Soul cultivator.

Lin Qi finished her sentence and even cast a grateful look on Luo Yi's face.

Lin Qi: "..."

I wonder what the Nascent Soul female cultivator was looking at in Luo Yi back then?

She took two steps forward and asked, "Aren't you a disciple of the Nan Zhou Luo family? How did you become the young master of the Zhong Zhou Luo family now?"

Lin Qi could never remember Luo Ci mentioning that there was another relative surnamed Luo in Zhongzhou.

Luo Yi had been frightened pale by her, though she didn't really want to answer Lin Qi's question, after some thought, she still opened her mouth.

"The Zhongzhou Luo family is the true main branch of the Luo family, while the Nanzhou Luo family is merely a branch. Over the years, with no one to discipline them, they have developed ambitions and forgotten their ancestors."

When he said this, he completely treated himself as someone from the Luo family of Zhongzhou.

I have the utmost disdain for the Luo family of Nanzhou.

Lin Qi smiled, "Master Luo, aren't you forgetting that you are also of the Luo family from Nanzhou bloodline?"

"Are you scolding yourself for forgetting your ancestors?"

"What an interesting one!"

Luo Yi was reminded by her, and became angry out of embarrassment. Suddenly, he gained a bit of courage.

"I am not from the Luo family of Nanzhou!"

"My biological mother is from the Luo family of Zhongzhou. I am a direct descendant of the Luo family of Zhongzhou, and Luo Zhou is just my foster mother!"

Lin Qi didn't know what Lo Ci's mother was called, but judging from Luo Yi's tone, this Luo Zhou referred to Lo Ci's mother.

Lin Qi's heart was full of curiosity.

Does Luo Ci's mother know about this?

You should know that, right? You wouldn't even know if the child is your own, would you?

Lin Qi only vaguely guessed that this probably involved another clan secret, so he didn't inquire further.

"Only asking, Luo Yi," He inquired. "What is the purpose of your journey? Are you targeting the Luo family of Nanzhou?"

"Of course not!" Luo Yi retorted, "If I were targeting the Nan Zhou Luo family, I'd be an idiot to bring this many people here!"

"In recent times, Zhongzhou has been peaceful. I heard that a rare treasure will soon be born in the mountains north and south, so I begged my mother to send someone to escort me here to seek it out."
