Chapter 568 Luo Qi? !
Luo Li tilted her head and smiled at the man. The smile was warm and bright, completely different from the coldness she showed to other people.
The man nodded slightly and stood in a protective posture. Although he said nothing, people could feel a power that should not be underestimated.
Others were just secretly marveling at the aura and appearance of this man who suddenly appeared.
But Ji Fusheng suddenly took two steps back, a look of fear and panic flashed across his eyes, "Luo Qi..."
Calling out this name that had not appeared in many years made Ji Fusheng's heartbeat suddenly accelerate, as if a thousand-pound hammer was hitting his chest. He retreated uncontrollably, leaving deep marks with every step.
The pair of eyes that usually carried a hint of cynicism and a hint of hostility were now wide open, filled with a mixture of disbelief and fear.
The name "Luo Qi" came out of his mouth, like a low hum in the cold wind, with a little trembling.
Everything around seemed to slow down, and everyone's eyes were involuntarily focused on the man.
He stood there, his posture as straight as a pine tree, his face extraordinarily handsome. He seemed to have heard the almost murmured call and glanced over.
He seemed to have seen something interesting, and said in a cold voice, "Ji Fusheng."
When Ji Fusheng heard the man speak, he felt suffocated. He shook his head and said, "No, no, Luo Qi died a long time ago. How could he appear here?!"
Li Sha looked at Ji Fusheng's strange behavior and asked doubtfully, "Ji Fusheng, do you know this person?"
Ji Fusheng's eyes were slightly bloodshot, he lowered his head and clenched his fists, "It's more than just knowing each other..."
"It's incomprehensible." Looking at Ji Fusheng's lifeless face, Li Sha frowned and shook his head. It was true that people from the lower continents were annoying.
He turned to look at Luo Li, "Are you that Luo Li?"
Luo Li raised her eyebrows and nodded. Something appeared in her hand. "Yes, I know why you are here. Isn't this the reason?"
Li Sha looked at the broken jade, his eyes instantly becoming hot. He involuntarily took a step forward and stretched out his hand, his fingertips almost touching the thing in Luo Li's hand, but Luo Li took two steps back and hid behind that 'Luo Qi'.
The man's aura was extremely powerful. Just one look from him made Li Sha freeze in place, unable to move.
Seeing Li Sha was shocked, Luo Li, who was hiding behind Luo Qi who had turned into a little ball of fur, secretly curled her lips and smiled.
Bai Ze's power and pressure are really useful.
She coughed lightly and strode out. "To tell you the truth, my father is the same as you, but he has only been back a few days. He came back for only one purpose, which is to get clues about my mother."
"Impossible!" Ji Fusheng's eyes were red as he spoke as rationally as possible, "Luo Qi went to the Myriad Beasts Continent back then! There's only a one-way passage between Myriad Beasts and Tianyuan. Luo Qi couldn't have come back! He must be fake!"
"Ji Fusheng!" Li Sha couldn't bear to see his crazy look and threatened in a low voice, "I don't care who he is, I don't care, all I want is the thing in Luo Li's hand, do you understand, Ji Fusheng?"
Luo Li curled her lips into a smile and threw the broken jade directly to Li Sha. Her voice was resounding, "I know you came here just for this thing! I'm not interested in it! I just want to get news about my parents!"
Li Sha caught the broken jade that Luo Li threw to him and was slightly stunned. What did this mean? Just throwing it to him like that? Why did it feel so hot?
Luo Li continued calmly, "I didn't want this thing in the first place. I've only unlocked half of the contract. As long as you don't interfere, I'll give it to you once I've found out about my parents."
Li Sha raised an eyebrow, "What do you want me to do?"
Luo Li curled her lips, a cunning look flashed in her eyes, and she slowly approached Li Sha. The distance between them was very close, so close that if Li Sha attacked, Luo Li would definitely not be able to dodge.
But Luo Li knew that with the two bargaining chips of 'Luo Qi' and Canyu, Li Sha would never attack him.
The faint light of the thousand-year candle on the top of the secret room fell on her cold face, adding a touch of softness to her, but it could not hide the toughness and determination in her bones.
"What I want you to do is very simple," she whispered softly, but her tone was full of unquestionable power. "It's obvious that Ji Fusheng absolutely knows about my parents' news."
"And what I hope is that you can just stand by and watch while I question him. If necessary, I hope you can help me. How about that?"
Li Sha hated the feeling of being coerced the most. He sneered, "Why do you think I would agree?"
Luo Li lowered her eyes, gently fiddling with her round nails, and said calmly, "Whoever among you dares to obstruct or harm me will definitely regret it. Li Sha, you don't want your trip to be in vain, right?"
After saying that, Luo Li stretched out her hand and gently patted the broken jade in the killer's hand. There was both threat and temptation in that action.
She smiled slightly, her voice gentle. "Of course, in exchange, once I fulfill my wish, this broken jade and the secret it holds will be yours. And I won't ask a single question. I think this deal is a good one, right?"
Li Sha's eyes became complicated the moment Luo Li tapped the broken jade. That action was like a breeze blowing across a quiet pond, stirring up layers of ripples.
His fingers, gripping the broken jade, trembled slightly, as if he were weighing an invisible weight.
The air around them seemed to freeze, and only the two people's shallow breathing mixed together could be heard.
Suddenly, Li Sha raised his head, his eyes like torches, staring straight into Luo Li's deep and bottomless eyes, and a meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Luo Li, your conditions are tempting, but I, Li Sha, have never been one to compromise easily. However, if it is true as you said, that once you get what you want, you will give it to me, then I am somewhat interested."
He glanced vaguely at the black-robed man standing behind Luo Li, who was always in a protective posture, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.
This man's strength was unpredictable, and he didn't want to conflict with him unless necessary.
Luo Li's eyes were indifferent. "So what is your answer?"
"Luo Li!" Ji Fusheng sneered and said confidently, "Do you think he will agree to your conditions?! He won't, don't be naive!"
He glanced at the man behind Luo Li with some fear. Just by seeing this face, he could remember that when the man left Tianyuan, he rushed into Tianyu Palace with a sword, stepped on his throne, and pierced his heart with a sword.
If not...
If it weren't for his master's blessing, he would have really died at that time!
