“Lord Hou is benevolent and boundlessly kind-hearted.”

The Chief of Staff of the President then furrowed his brows: “The Federation is naturally willing to support this good deed, but the problem is how can we help these nine million people escape the punishment of the Great Song Court?”

“This matter actually holds great benefits for you as well.”

Lin Rui’s lips curled up slightly, his smile meaningful: “I’ve heard reports from my subordinates that the rebellion north of Jingzhou might be related to Purgatory, possibly involving the Blood Sacrifice Technique. You could go and verify the authenticity of this intelligence and help Lin gather some evidence.”

“Purgatory?” The Chief of Staff of the President had already understood Lin Hao’s intention.

He thought to himself that it was clever of Lin Hao to come up with this, but indeed it was the best course of action. Once it involved the forces of Purgatory and Blood Sacrifice, Great Song would surely be extremely cautious and not allow Purgatory to succeed.

This definitely held great benefits for the current Earth Federation as well.

After contemplating for a short while, the Chief of Staff gave a slight bow: “Our Federation will commence the investigation immediately, Lord Hou rest assured, we will have news within three days at most!”

In his heart, however, he was thinking about how to fabricate the concrete evidence against Purgatory.

No matter the truth of the situation north of Jingzhou, they must establish the guilt of this matter.

Lin Rui nodded slightly, thinking that this Chief of Staff was indeed on the right track.

“And regarding the Longevity Association and Zang Shaochen, it is not necessarily mandatory for them to be handed over to Great Song for disposal. However, you, Outer Heaven Demons, must give our Divine and the people of Great Song a satisfactory explanation.”

He then picked up his teacup and gently blew on it: “Divine is also very interested in the technologies involved in that blasphemous case. Oh yes, I heard from my master that after the blasphemous case happened, Divine was very detailed in asking how your blasphemous techniques managed to evade His perception, and even had the laboratory moved up to the Divine Palace for the artisans to study, saying that they must replicate it successfully. I suppose you can provide the relevant technology?”

If it were only as such, it wouldn’t be too bad, but Divine had even had a palace built a few years ago, claiming it to be capable of completely hiding one’s presence.

It was said that Divine was very dissatisfied, having held all the artisans responsible for building the palace accountable and executed.

However, this could not be disclosed by him; the Federation would have to find out for themselves.

The Chief of Staff listened intently, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

The information from Lin Hao was immense! Tremendously immense.

Firstly, the East Abyss is very interested in the technique for concealing the Spirit Mechanism.

Secondly, why does the East Abyss want to hide the Spirit Mechanism? He is one of the most powerful beings between heaven and earth, with infinite Divine Power, just like the gods from human myths.

He wanted to inquire further, but he saw Lin Rui picking up his teacup, a gesture according to the customs of the Sky Extreme Star signifying it was time to see the guest out.

The Chief of Staff left helplessly with a bow and farewell.

Lin Rui watched the Chief of Staff descend from the Flying Car, then turned to look at Tian Xiang, the Divine Envoy, with a frown.

Tian Xiang also stared coldly at Lin Rui.

Though grateful that Lin Hao was willing to save the nine million people north of Jingzhou, in her heart, he was still a corrupt official!

Unfortunately, she could not speak out, as the Silent Ball stuffed in her mouth prevented her from making any sound.

Lin Rui, on the other hand, rubbed his temples in frustration; this woman was not a gift to him but rather a hot potato.

—She was after all a Super Emperor of the Ninth Realm! Although she was one of the weaker Super Emperors in the Ninth Realm, with cultivation only at the early stages of the Ninth Realm, equivalent to the level of a three-star Marshal, she was still a candidate for Divine Envoy and an Honorary Member of the Congress!

Lin Rui was extremely wary of this woman, fearing that she might suddenly break free and ‘snap’ him dead.

However, after some hesitation, Lin Rui decided to inquire first.

He reached out his hand to remove the Silent Ball from the mouth of Tian Xiang, the Divine Envoy.

But just as Lin Rui’s fingers touched the lips of Tian Xiang, her delicate body suddenly shuddered violently.

Lin Rui stared in astonishment at Tian Xiang, wondering why she had such a large reaction to merely removing a Silent Ball?

The emotions in Tian Xiang’s heart were also tumultuous and shocked beyond measure!

Purifying Fire! She felt the Purifying Fire inside the young man!

There’s also the “Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire”; not only does the opponent harbor a sub-body of the “Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire,” but his “Bright Thunder Sacred Body” is also nearing completion.

This man before me is the Bright Holy Son that our Bright Holy Sect has sought for so long in vain!

In addition, Goddess of Heavenly Fragrance Divine Envoy also felt a strand of Light Elemental Power that sent shivers down her spine. Although there wasn’t much of it, it was incredibly potent and pure—so pure and powerful that it made her Primordial Qi wilt, as if a mouse had seen a cat, and it stirred in her the deep desire to submit and worship from the depths of her soul.

This Lin Hao—he could very well be the deity that our Bright Holy Sect has long awaited!

The one from the prophecy, who would cleave through darkness with Bright Holy Thunder and cleanse the world of filth with a surge of Tribulation Fire—the true Light Heavenly Venerate of this era! The real King Ming!

However, Goddess of Heavenly Fragrance Divine Envoy quickly suppressed the excitement within her, showing not a hint of anomaly on her face.

She knew that the man before her, though possessing a merciful heart that loved and pitied the common folk, also had the ruthless hand to silence others by murder.

Since his debut, who knows how many heads have fallen beneath his blade; the infamy of his “King Yama’s Blade” was well-deserved.

If Lin Hao discovered that she knew about his possession of the Purifying Fire, and that he might be the true King Ming anticipated by the Bright Holy Sect, the first thing he would do most definitely wouldn’t be to assume his role as King Ming, but rather to chop off her head immediately to seal her lips completely.

Lin Rui had already removed the Silent Ball from Goddess of Heavenly Fragrance Divine Envoy: “Where is the King Ming? Where are the fragments of the Divine Tablet? How many people do you have in Luojing, and what plans have you laid out?”

Gazing at him silently, Goddess of Heavenly Fragrance Divine Envoy then closed her eyes and began to sing, “Holy Thunder shines bright, Holy Light blazes, pity us mortals, besieged by woe—life is fraught with trials, besmirched by demonic dust; a thousand calamities and hardships arise, a multitude of ailments steadily spring forth; thus what joy is there in living, what sorrow in death?

Majestic Holy Thunder, cleanse my withered body; open my clear heart, awaken my lucid nature; do good, vanquish evil, all for the sake of Holy Light; joy and grief, sorrow and happiness, all return to dust—”

Lin Rui thought to himself, as expected, the convictions of a master at such a level are impenetrable; it is impossible to extract any useful information from her.

The effectiveness of his Truth Serum on Goddess of Heavenly Fragrance Divine Envoy was also extremely limited.

But for now, she would suffice for a report to his superiors.

Having captured one of the Bright Holy Sect’s five Divine Envoys, no one could say he hadn’t made an effort.

“Crazy!” Lin Rui reinserted the Silent Ball: “Let Wang Meixue, Ni Nancui, and Jiang Shi, the three of them come in, take this woman to the Divine Prison Department. Have the people there interrogate her thoroughly and make her speak soon! Hmm, ask General Li to send someone for escort too.”

Wang Meixue, Ni Nancui, and Jiang Shi were the names of the three Seventh Realm Dragon Guards under his command.

Lin Rui had no fear of this woman leaking his conversation with the Chief of Staff.

First of all, the incriminating words of a Demon Sect Divine Envoy, baseless and ungrounded, how could they be credible?

Furthermore, his conversation with the Chief of Staff was cautious, and even if disclosed, Lin Rui had nothing to fear.

After Wang Meixue and the others had taken Goddess of Heavenly Fragrance Divine Envoy away, Lin Rui’s expression shifted slightly.

He discovered that the Chief of Staff had accidentally left a box containing the seed of a Vajra Battle Dragon on his seat.

Seeing this, Lin Rui with a helpless expression, drew the box back into his hand, his words filled with reflection, “This item is worth its weight in gold; would it not harm innocence? Although the Chief of Staff has judged me with a petty man’s perspective, I can still feel his hearty love for the people; he truly wishes to avert war. The trouble is, if I don’t accept this item, those Outer Heaven Demons will probably remain uneasy.”

Shangguan Tianyi, after hearing this, her eyes moved slightly as she clasped her hands in admiration, “My lord is compassionate towards the people, for the sake of peace between the two nations, for the consideration of nine million citizens, perhaps you can endure this predicament.”

She had followed Lin Rui for some time now, and felt that Ji Xueying wasn’t wrong.

Although Lin Hao was an Outer Heaven Demon, he cared for the people of the Great Song more than the majority of high officials in the Great Song Court; while many of the noble officials, although of the same kind, treated the common folk as if they were extracting marrow from bones, like malevolent spirits.

Lin Rui finally steeled himself, stuffing the ‘Vajra Battle Dragon seed’ into his sleeve.

He thought to himself, could this not be considered bribery? Li Xianglong once said that the magnitude of this mission was equivalent to 5 X+ level tasks; later on, he could give a hint to him, tallying the gift from the Federation with the award, balancing any surplus or shortfall.

The matter of bribery is grave and must be nipped in the bud.

One must remember that a person’s bottom line is like a film; once it’s breached once, it’s likely to be breached a second time, until it’s completely worn away.

“Let’s go back too!”

Turning his head towards Luojing, Lin Rui knew he had to return quickly and prepare for his Dragon Transformation in the Sixth Realm.

The gift from the Chief of Staff truly suited his taste.

With the surrounding area of Luojing rife with danger and crises lurking on every side, he must ascend to Dragon Transformation in the Sixth Realm as soon as possible to secure his footing.
