The train of thought in his mind did not interfere with his movements, they remained fast, accurate, and steady.
"The Emperor of the Empire determines from his known intelligence about me that I possess the power of Qi."
"Under normal circumstances, he should be keen to kill me at all costs instead of capturing me alive."
"Because the longer I live, the more chances the Federation will have to master the power of Qi."
"Yet, he chose to capture me alive, now what does that imply?"
"He needs my power…"
This idea surprised Ji Xinghe because no matter how he looked at it, the Emperor of the Empire must be the most powerful entity in the Empire, and the Qi he mastered must be the strongest in the Empire.
Considering that Qi can be transmitted, if the current Emperor of the Empire accepted the transmission of Qi from the former Emperor, he could even be called the strongest Ape in history.
