Li Lingxiao took a half step towards the opposite side of the street.

As his shoe left the ground, he felt the brain matter inside his skull sloshing around like a swaying wine glass, and a few drops of white liquid, symbolizing memories, appeared in his peripheral vision, gently falling onto the asphalt road, and then immediately evaporating without a trace.

He could no longer see them.

A silver crescent moon, as majestic as a mountain range, appeared on his retina, blocking everything he could see and perceive. At this moment, Li Lingxiao also recalled the fervent worship of the silver moon deep in his heart. That satellite, which had existed in the night sky countless years ago, accompanied his ancestors through every lonely night, guiding lost travelers in the darkness.

They called her the moon, but he regarded her as a god.

Because that bright moonlight guided the way forward in his heart, he had been accompanied by the moon god all his life, and was chosen not long after birth because of his talent for sensing the moon god, escaping the poverty that was originally destined for him.

In the Southern Federation, it is impossible to rise above others for no reason.

Li Lingxiao saw a few hazy figures, their faces slowly fading, still waving at him, some smiling with relief, and others revealing the pain of parting.

After finding his duty, he never saw them again.

Then came the days of serving the being who ruled the spiritual dimension of the Southern Federation.

It was also at that time that he met her.

Li Lingxiao staggered and fell forward, crashing into a meadow covered with bright flowers. Beautiful clouds floated in the lake not far away, and a hazy, beautiful figure jumped and ran happily in the mist.

He didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this fairy-like place, because Li Lingxiao's eyes could no longer leave the looming woman, and he stared at her wandering in the mist with fascination, his eyes blurred with a hint of timidity.

He felt that the scene before him was so familiar and strange. This was a memory from his past, almost surfacing, but he couldn't grasp the woman dancing like an elf.

Who was he, and why was he here?

These questions were meaningless in the face of the strong love in his heart. The faces of his past family members had completely turned into white masks, and the meaning represented by the god he served was no longer clear in his mind, as if nothing else mattered after meeting her.

Nothing is irreplaceable.

Except for her.

Li Lingxiao strode forward, rushing into the white fairy mist, chasing after the beautiful figure that was moving away into the distance, wanting to return to her side.

Thump.

He fell.

When he stood up, the figure that haunted him had completely disappeared, leaving only endless white mist, and the bright flowers that were rapidly withering beside him.

What was he chasing just now?

'My beloved.' This thought immediately appeared in Li Lingxiao's mind, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't find any other memories related to her, and it seemed that other memories had also disappeared with her.

A hazy idea came to him.

'She is dead.'

The secret was burst like a bubble.

Then everything around him disappeared and faded as if wiped away by a rubber eraser. The originally blurred faces and swaying memories completely fell to the ground, shattered into countless pieces of memory that could not be reassembled, and finally turned into dust with the wind.

Everything was forgotten and stuffed into a storage box called "secret."

And Li Lingxiao finally stepped onto the ground.

Half of his body had stepped into the shadow-covered street, but it didn't cause any ripples. This defense mechanism, specially designed to prevent the invasion of the moon god, didn't even notice that the soul of a child of the moon had broken into it at this moment.

Li Lingxiao didn't turn his head to look back, otherwise he would have seen his body still standing in the world outside the shadows, but even if he saw it now, he wouldn't have any reaction.

He had forgotten his family, past, faith, and beloved.

And he was no longer a subject of the moon.

Apart from those things that were secrets to him, this soul now only had what the moon god had specially left behind, and the rest of the soul was as pure as a newborn baby.

"Secret…"

As soon as he looked at the Investigation Bureau, he noticed the existence of several different secrets, and there was also a strange, huge gap where nothing could be found.

'He has been here.'

Although he didn't know what this "he" referred to, Li Lingxiao naturally had this idea when he saw this scene, and then the idea of what to do next immediately appeared in his mind.

He swept through these secrets, and then focused his attention on three special secrets. The reason they were chosen was that parts of their structures had sunk into that strange gap.

Then he scanned through these three secrets. The largest one was the first to catch his eye, but its proportion of sinking into the gap was the lowest, so Li Lingxiao skipped it without hesitation.

The proportions of the other two that sank into it reached the standard in his "heart". The one with the lower proportion of entry was slowly moving towards the gap area at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it also exuded an aura that Li Lingxiao felt familiar with.

Psychic.

Li Lingxiao's eyes wandered over it for a while, and then he noticed a structure like a crack in it.

His thoughts immediately entered the next stage.

Li Lingxiao no longer watched from a distance, but took the initiative to enter the Investigation Department, and a silver robe "grew" on his body, covering his entire body.

The silver ghost floated into the gate of the Investigation Department without stopping, and then immediately adjusted its direction and rushed towards that secret.

He fell towards the location of that secret like a meteorite pulled by gravity, and the closer the distance between the two, the faster the speed. It was as if the spiritual body would also encounter air friction. The silver ghostly figure gradually became blurred, constantly stretching and deforming, until it could no longer be fixed into any specific form.

He finally turned into a flowing liquid as if melted by high temperature, and immediately collided with and merged into the secret from the psychic.

Jing Ying, who was closing his eyes to rest, suddenly opened his eyes and looked down at the ground in front of his bed.

At this moment, a pool of silver liquid of unknown origin was flowing in front of his bed. Obviously, it existed in front of him in a spiritual form, and what surprised Jing Ying was that this pool of liquid was maintaining its distance from him with quite superb means.

Visually, it seemed within reach, but in the spiritual dimension, it had no way to cause any influence on him other than visual.

The silver liquid bubbled a few times under Jing Ying's gaze, and then twisted wildly as if it had life. A few clumps of liquid struggled to spread and grow towards the upper position, and tried to form a specific image in front of him.

The characteristics of this pool of silver liquid were very shocking to him. Not everyone could make this image appear in his mind so harmoniously, but also maintain such a restrained distance.

The special existence form of this liquid guaranteed one thing: the psychic who created it could communicate without being able to threaten him at all, and obviously, the person using this technique deliberately made him aware of this.

She wanted to talk to him safely and alone.

This level of psychic attainment had already foreshadowed the identity of the person coming - the Moon God.

If it were normal, Jing Ying would have left here to report to his superiors.

But now is not normal.

Then he saw that the twisting of the silver liquid under the bed began to have a specific pattern. Slowly, the floating parts formed a shape visible to the naked eye, but this made Jing Ying feel a little uneasy.

Because those liquids looked like parts of a human body, he was frantically slapping and scratching the silver tape that wrapped him, as if trying to break free from this layer of silver liquid that bound him.

Jing Ying didn't speak, just watched the scene in front of him with some chills.

The movements of the figure "trapped" under the silver liquid became slower and slower, as if his strength had been exhausted with the struggle just now, but Jing Ying always felt that the figure's movements were more like slowly suffocating from lack of oxygen.

Finally, when the figure raised his hands high and wanted to tear open this layer of restraint, he suddenly froze in place as if frozen, and after a few seconds of long silence, the figure turned back into a pool of liquid and fell back to the ground.

Just as Jing Ying was feeling puzzled, the liquid instantly turned back into a figure.

But this time, what appeared was a graceful female body.

The silver liquid opened its mouth, and then looked at him as if asking for permission.

Jing Ying shook his head with a wary look:

"I can't let you in at all. If you can't speak, please leave."

The liquid looked around, then looked down at the ring Jing Ying was wearing, then moved a little towards the outside, using body movements to hint at something.

Jing Ying still wanted to refuse, but before he could open his mouth to answer, the pool of silver liquid quickly flowed towards the corner of the wall, and quickly penetrated in, heading towards the direction away from the Investigation Department at high speed.

Jing Ying looked down at the ring on his hand and clenched it tightly.

He stood up, strode towards the wall where the silver liquid had disappeared, and walked in firmly, abandoning his flesh and blood body in place.

With the protection from the shadows, even if the one who invited him to leave was really the Moon God, he didn't need to worry about anything. Moreover, before coming to the Southern Federation, he had also received special training to resist the invasion of the Moon God.

If the Moon God could still invade him under such circumstances, then it would be meaningless for him not to leave, because if she was really that strong, then the entire Investigation Department might fall in front of her in a few days.

Jing Ying followed the flowing silver liquid out of the block.

The moment she crossed the shadow, Jing Ying could feel that the pool of liquid had a few more traces of vitality, as if it was a delicate sculpture that had been given life. Only then did Jing Ying realize that what had just communicated with him might just be some kind of artificial creation.

This feeling was like looking at a lifelike marble sculpture. He was almost about to regard the thing in front of him as a living thing, but when he really walked down, he could clearly perceive the clear dividing line between life and death.

Jing Ying admired the silver woman in front of him, who was almost human-shaped:

"This thing is like it's alive. How did you do it?"

She didn't personally enter the realm of shadows, but sent out a silver liquid that was almost alive to call him out.

The Moon God smiled:

"It's not a difficult thing. In other situations, if I use the same materials, I can completely create creations that are more spiritual than it, but if I want to bypass the vigilance of that young man, I have to completely erase those fresh parts and only leave mechanical and rigid structures.

"And if the latter wants to simulate the consciousness of a living person and make the right reactions to the things they encounter, they just need to prepare a sufficiently complex template. I have to thank a few of my old opponents for this idea.

"They made me understand that consciousness is not such a sacred thing."

This was the reason why Jing Ying wanted to enter the Moon God's body. If he could personally enter it and end her life, this ancient god would definitely reveal more valuable and wonderful things on the verge of her death.

For example, the spiritual structure of a Tier V spiritual entity is superior to theirs.

"What do you want to say to me?" Jing Ying put away his excitement and asked with some trepidation.

If the Moon God wanted to collude with him from the inside to destroy their plan, he would immediately return to the Investigation Department to report this matter and let the shadows readjust the plan to deal with her.

But for some reason, Jing Ying always felt that this was not the reason she came.

Moreover, if she knew the plan, what she would do would definitely not be so gentle to meet him in private.

"Although you may not be able to understand, I know you have a secret," the Moon God said, "and it has something to do with a mortal named Ma En."

Jing Ying looked at her in silence.

The Moon God continued:

"Your Federation will have conflicts with me sooner or later. I don't know when that will be, in what way it will be carried out, and I don't know if you are clear about this, but if you know, I want you to realize one thing…

"I am willing to sacrifice a little of my other interests for this mortal."

Jing Ying frowned when he heard this:

"If you want me to tell the Investigation Department about this, they may not agree."

The Moon God asked in confusion:

"Why?"

Of course, it was because they were planning to use Ma En to kill you.

Jing Ying could only say:

"Because in their opinion, Ma En is also a very important person. The Federation has some ideas about him.

"And this is an order from outside the Investigation Department, because he may have a very dangerous relationship with the Godly Traveler."

The Moon God nodded:

"I didn't expect this, but it sounds quite reasonable."

After all, he was a mortal that even she coveted, so it was not surprising that he had colluded with the Godly Traveler.

But…

Jing Ying suddenly said:

"But you are very lucky.

"Because I happen to have a grudge against Ma En."
