Background / History

Li Qi is the daughter of Li Yunfei, commander of the South Sea Fleet. Old Huang promoted her to Major General and placed her at Liangshan Base, which he believed could eventually surpass Mangdang Mountain Base in importance. 30

As Blue Sword’s first extra-establishment member, Li Qi was tasked with discreetly recruiting Qi Lin. She arranged their meeting, introduced Qi Lin to Liangshan Base’s personnel and technology, and helped her recognize Blue Sword as a Chinese institution rather than another alien-led force. 35 36

Old Huang later transferred Liangshan Base’s affairs to Li Qi. Though she initially doubted her ability to handle the responsibility, she accepted the position as part of Old Huang’s effort to develop the next generation of leadership. 122

Su Jiu eventually entrusted the Qi Ling Realm to Li Qi, extending her responsibilities beyond Liangshan Base. She continued coordinating defenses, missions, reinforcements, and talent selection for Blue Sword. 293 312

Appearance

Li Qi normally appears in military attire as a Blue Sword officer. When activating her Nano Core, she manifests a blue battle robe-like armor with wings. 30 106

• Uses oversized specialized gauntlets fitted with retractable barbs. 106
• Her Nano armor can generate wings for aerial combat. 106
• Has used a plasma sword while armored. 312

Personality

Li Qi is direct, proud, and physically expressive. She reacts strongly to insults—particularly Su Jiu’s remarks about her chest—and vents her frustration by striking a mannequin bearing his photograph. 82 83

Despite her impulsive streak, she takes command seriously. She evaluates battlefield risks, prioritizes the survival of her personnel, and quickly dispatches reinforcements when allies call for aid. 105 189 286 She is also capable of accepting criticism: after making an unspecified mistake connected to the Bohai Bay and Trial Land matters, she showed remorse while receiving Old Huang’s reprimand. 156

Her encounter with Ye Kunling made her confront her dependence on technology. After being told that people—not equipment—are the foundation of cultivation, she voluntarily removed her armor and accepted the lesson. 312
