Biochemical Martial Arts: Supreme Heavenly Venerate

After viewing the image of Qin Yan's cave residence, Lin Rui wanted to continue expanding Zhu Huaimeng's dream to see other things.

However, Zhu Huaimeng's willpower was very strong, and even though Lin Rui used a powerful Illusion Secret Technique, he gained nothing.

Lin Rui could only end the dream, squinting at the female Heavenly Demon in front of him, "When does the Blood Blade Maple fall asleep? What conditions are needed?"

This seventh realm Blood Blade Maple was extremely troublesome, with its combat power estimated to be at least beyond the seventh realm king rank, even possibly reaching the emperor rank.

Lin Rui thought that Qin Yan, indeed worthy of being a disciple of the Limitless Saber Venerable, managed to find such a powerful Blood Blade Maple to protect the Protector.

If they failed to find a way to deal with the seventh realm Blood Blade Maple, they would have to invite another seventh realm expert, which would be very troublesome.

Zhu Huaimeng opened her eyes and sneered slightly, "I can tell you the time and method to make the Blood Blade Maple fall into a deep sleep, but there's a condition, you must let me go."

Upon hearing this, Lin Rui chuckled, this Heavenly Demon had been imprisoned in the Imperial Censor's prison, yet still thought of escaping? It was utterly fanciful.

His main purpose this time was to confirm the existence of the Divine Heart Clearing Spirit Pill, as for the method to enter the cave residence, it could wait until the Dream Divine Envoy arrived to study further.

Although the seventh realm Blood Blade Maple was troublesome, with the capabilities of the Dream Divine Envoy, there was a way to deal with it.

Thus, Lin Rui asked a second question directly, "You also confessed that you know the merchant Yuan Ji, saying that this person is an outer-realm Heavenly Demon and of the same kind as you?"

Zhu Huaimeng lifted her head expressionlessly, her eyes meaningfully glanced at Lin Rui, "Yuan Ji is indeed an outer-realm Heavenly Demon!

I've been in Wang City for most of the year, had several interactions with him, I guess his true identity could be a spy from some intelligence agency of the Earth Federation, the massacre in Wang City a month ago was likely orchestrated by him leading a group of Federation elites."

This was instructed by her senior brother beforehand, Zhu Huaimeng didn't understand the purpose, only knew that this matter seemed related to the new Capital Commandant of Wang City, key to gaining the person's trust from her senior brother.

Lin Rui smiled slightly, also turning his head significantly to glance at Lin Rui beside him.

About Yuan Ji being an outer-realm Heavenly Demon, he was half-convinced.

However, Lin Rui didn't care to delve deeper, nor did he wish to.

This was a good thing for them, with this outer-realm Heavenly Demon's testimony, it would be possible to completely condemn the merchant Yuan Ji and the market superintendent eunuch Wang Zhenli, leaving them no chance to turn over.

This Capital Defensive Envoy handled the matters beautifully, having both witness and physical evidence. Experience more content on empire

Lin Rui then asked Zhu Huaimeng a few more things before stepping out of the cell.

He hurriedly walked outside the prison, casting a golden 'Flying Letter' using a magic spell.

The 'Flying Letter' in Tianji Star is a kind of mechanism Magic Artifact, looking like a book when inactive, but unfolding wings like a bird, flying at an extreme speed through the sky when activated.

Lin Rui used the 'Hundred Thousand Li Flying Letter,' the highest specification.

Lin Rui then called Lin Rui aside, waving his hand to have Wang Sen, Blood Blade Ji, and others completely withdraw.

At this moment, Lin Rui's expression was extremely solemn, "Lord Lin, it seems the matter regarding the Divine Heart Clearing Spirit Pill is undoubtedly true! This outer-realm Heavenly Demon is very important, her testimonies must be kept secret, absolutely cannot let her fall into the hands of the Punishment Inspection Magistrate before the Heavenly Officer arrives."

Lin Rui frowned deeply, "This will be very troublesome, the Punishment Inspection Magistrate has urged me several times to hand over the person, and they say their deputy is about to arrive, I can't hold much longer."

He laughed ruefully, folding his hands bowing, "My suggestion is to request the Garrison Commander to send one or two fifth realm experts here, and I will send her off to the Sha State Garrison immediately."

Lin Rui felt a headache upon hearing this, thinking if the Garrison Commander had any credible fifth realm experts to dispatch, why would there be a risk in assigning Lin Twelve to take over Wang City?

The arms of the Garrison Commander, laboriously cultivated over the years, had almost all died at the hands of those Heavenly Demons.

Thus, the delivery to Sha State was absolutely unviable, who knew whether the people from the Punishment Inspection Magistrate's office might forcefully take her away en route?

Although the Imperial Censor was superior in position and power to the Punishment Inspection Magistrate and the Royal Court's Ministry of Punishment, however, with the support of the civil service system, they had been challenging the authority of the Imperial Censor for thousands of years.

Even though the Imperial Censor was proclaimed as the Emperor's personal troops, God's limbs, it was not possible to petition the Emperor about every trivial matter and seek divine guidance, hence, they often had to rely on the size of their fists to speak.

"I know this is difficult, but still, I request Lord Lin to make every effort!"

Bai Hao firmly clutched Lin Rui's arm, earnestly saying, "Master Lin, you might not know, but before I came here, the Garrison Commander had repeatedly emphasized how crucial the Divine Heart Clearing Spirit Pill is for the Divine Envoy. The three hundred thousand stones of Divine Heart Tea pale in comparison to this matter.

Hence, this Heavenly Demon must not fall into someone else's hands! Furthermore, this information must not be leaked, otherwise those adversaries of the Divine Envoy will definitely not stand idly by! With your exceptional abilities, sir, you certainly have a way to withstand the Pressing Inspector's Office!"

Unconsciously increasing his grip, he caused Lin Rui's hand to ache: "If you feel your power isn't enough, you can directly recruit experts in Wang City; you are now the rightful Defense Official, and you can gather all 200 Imperial Dragons of the city.

I can also authorize you three seventh-rank Martial Virtue Capital Commandant positions, as long as you can pass the Heavenly Demon Test afterward, just claim them! Of course, the Garrison Commander will also think of ways to help you, as long as you can hold out until the arrival of the senior official, sir—we will commend your great achievement! In case all fails—"

Bai Hao's expression turned ominously fierce: "Just ensure that no one from the Pressing Inspector's Office takes her away! Also, these subordinates of yours who are privy to this, you must keep a close watch on them."

Though his words seemed repetitive, Lin Rui immediately grasped the meaning and nodded gravely.

※※※※

Bai Hao came in a haste and departed just as quickly, not even staying for lunch after giving Lin Rui his instructions and hurriedly left.

Lin Rui accompanied by Wang Sen, Li Li, and others escorted him to the city gates, watching as he galloped away, disappearing from their view.

Li Li, eyes filled with skepticism, said, "I never expected a 'Heavenly Official' to be involved! What use does the Divine Heart Clearing Spirit Pill have for the Divine Envoy?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Rui shook his head, "I'm not sure, but it seems that this item is even more vital to the Divine Envoy than you and I can imagine."

Although Zhuang Mingyue had also gravely instructed him before, Lin Rui had not expected the importance of this matter to be so high.

About seven hundred miles separate Wang City from Sha State City. Lin Rui had delayed until last night to report Sister Zhu's testimony, yet Mister Bai arrived today.

However, this was actually good news for them.

Lin Rui let out a light chuckle, "During this period, please take extra care of the prison security, Li Qu Zhang. I'll find a suitable jail administrator to replace you."

Li Li, performing his duties perfectly, bowed and said, "I dare not disappoint your direction, sir, as long as the jail stands, I stand!"

Even if Lin Rui hadn't mentioned it, he would have dedicated himself fully, needing to withstand the Pressing Inspector's Office at all costs and certainly not let them take Sister Zhu away.

For the next few days, it should be manageable, as the Pressing Inspector's Office had detained dozens of their own under suspicion of collusion with demons, now unable to retaliate outright.

"Moreover, we need to recruit more people. When you get back, inform the head scribe to release the recruitment message: a hundred Imperial Dragons, all must be at least in the second realm's late stage; also, five Martial Virtue Capital Commandants, requiring fourth-realm king-tier or above, two of which can be rightful Qu Zhang and jail administrator, must be fifth-realm."

Thinking of recruiting again, Lin Rui felt a headache approaching; previously, it had taken him lots of time and effort to recruit a hundred Imperial Dragons.

He then mounted a nearby Ironscale Horse, "Let's go, twenty-seven!"

Wang Sen, invigorated, along with Ji Xueying, quickly mounted their horses, leading several horses meant for rotation, and rushed after Lin Rui towards the north of the city.

Their plan for the day was originally to finish their piling exercises and then head out of the city to hunt a fifth-realm demon.

Locals had reported at a valley near Tianyue County, seven hundred miles north of the city, that a cold-attribute fifth-realm demon had been wreaking havoc for months, and they pleaded for the government to swiftly eliminate it.

It was said that the demon's bloodline power might reach the king tier, aptly matching the attributes of wind, water, and ice, perfectly suitable for Wang Sen and the 'Xuanwu Sacred Body'.

If not for Bai Hao's visit, they would have left the city long ago.

"Hmm?"

While galloping, Ji Xueying suddenly felt uneasy, looking back.

She sensed that a moment ago, a powerful Divine Sense had been spying on them.

Ji Xueying's intuition didn't feel any danger, but the Divine Sense was strong, close to the sixth-realm and gave her a strange feeling—familiar yet foreign and chaotic, very bizarre.

Ji Xueying instinctively touched her blade, then with a cold laugh, continued to ride forward.

She thought it necessary to inform her master about this.

If someone truly dared to target them, Ji Xueying would use her newly modified Snow Shocking Blade to make them pay a bloody price!
