Biochemical Martial Arts: Supreme Heavenly Venerate

After communicating with Lin Rui, Fei Yunlai began to pay attention to the situation in Luo Capital. His other body was still recuperating its Primordial Spirit in Wang County and was not inside Luo Capital, but the spy networks he had long been lurking in were quite active. The leaders and co-leaders of these networks were keen on sharing various messages with their members. Twenty minutes after Lin Rui closed the quantum communication, the information flow in these networks began to explode. "Damn, two Ninth Realm experts just had a big fight in the sky above Luo Capital, what was the cause?" "This is too bold, that location is right under the Divine Palace, and under the East Abyss's nose!" "Lots of things happened today in Luo Capital, ever since that new commander of the Bureau of Betrayal took office, it's been total chaos." At this moment, someone shared a video, all shot from the ground looking up at the strange scene in the sky. "I felt very powerful sword pressure and knife might, can anyone figure out who is fighting?" "I don't know, but it's definitely above the Super Emperor of the Ninth Realm! It might even be a Divine Envoy, look, there are rifts in space and time up there." "The Eastern Emperor Bell? Someone from the East Abyss actually used the Eastern Emperor Bell, I heard that Qi Wuji was remotely killed by a shockwave from 30,000 li away!" "This is the Abyss! I told you, the Divine above would be enraged, Qi Wuji was practically begging for death by making a move under his watch." "I'm so freaking unlucky, I got hit by the bell's sound without any protection just now, and my head still hurts like hell, as if it's split open." "Then you're impressive, I heard that Divine Artifact is designed to shock the Primordial Spirit, the stronger the Primordial Spirit, the deeper the injury." "Holy shit! See that, those are the Priest Corps of the Divine Palace and Luo Wangshu's Third Divine Guard Army in the sky, what are they planning to do?" "What the hell is going on? What exactly happened today?" Seeing this, Fei Yunlai couldn't help but clench his fist tight. He knew that the evidence he provided to Lin Rui might have already been submitted to the Divine Envoy, even before the eyes of that someone from the East Abyss. Fei Yunlai felt extremely satisfied in his heart, did those guys really think he wouldn't fight back? Did they think they could boil him to death slowly without him noticing? If death was the inevitable conclusion, he'd rather have a mutual destruction with these guys. Besides, now he was not without some support. Fei Yunlai's BOSS, while only operating a small force at the ninth base city, had already become the top figure in the skies of the Heavenly Extreme Star. The resources and power the commander of the Bureau of Betrayal could mobilize were no less than those under a four-star marshal, and even had advantages in many aspects. As long as Fei Yunlai ensured that his true body and the Battle Dragon were not discovered by the enemy, the risk he faced would be extremely low. It was only the 200-year contract that gave Fei Yunlai a bit of a headache. This was still under the precondition that he could deal with Wang Tianwu, seeing the BOSS's intention, he didn't seem to have any room to negotiate. But Fei Yunlai could understand, after all, that was a four-star marshal! A commander who wielded great power of the Second Star Fleet! As Fei Yunlai was thinking about how to 'convince' Wang Tianwu, the topics of discussion in the networks quickly changed again. "That looks like two Divine Dragon Slayer Sabers? The East Abyss has bestowed the saber again, and it's headed towards Divine Scenery Mountain, near the Third Divine Envoy Institute." "??? Could it be Lin Hao? To my knowledge, that guy just entered the palace, and he should be in the Third Divine Envoy Institute right now." "That's impossible! How can anyone obtain both the Divine Merit Order and the Divine Dragon Slayer Saber on the same day? Not to mention there's no precedent in the thousands of years of the Great Song dynasty's history, not even before, are they joking?" "It should be Lin Hao! I got a tip, this commander of the Bureau of Betrayal cracked a major case again, the Great Song's ninth candidate Divine Envoy Qi Wuji colluded with the Inferno and Heavenly Demon, intending to corrupt the Prison Guard Army, and Lin Hao uncovered it! The battle in the sky just now was between Qi Wuji and Luo Wangshu." "Really? Damn, Lin Hao is too badass, killing a candidate Divine Envoy within ten days of taking office, so it seems the East Abyss might have really made an exception and granted the Divine Dragon Slayer Saber?" "I'm dazed, according to the structure of the Great Song kingdom, if the East Abyss really did this, what's the difference from appointing a Crown Prince?" "How is there no difference? The Crown Prince is like a vice sovereign! But the current Great Song Crown Prince only has a title without any power, while Lin Hao not only has a real name but also authority. In the future, he may well stand equal with the ruler of a nation." Fei Yunlai was also extremely surprised, guessing this must be true, and an odd feeling surged in his heart. Was his little BOSS actually so powerful? With the current prestige and status of the BOSS, surely he could easily cancel the imperial edict calling for his arrest by the Great Song court, right? This was another matter about which Fei Yunlai was particularly concerned. In the past, he was a wanted man too, but being on the imperial wanted list was fundamentally different in its intensity compared to a regular warrant. The connection between Fei Yunlai's alternative self and his original body was exposed after entering the imperial wanted list. "Hm?" Suddenly, Fei Yunlai let out a sound of surprise; he noticed that Wang Tianwu had come online. Fei Yunlai immediately sent a message over. Invincible Bull (Fei Yunlai): Old Wang, has your alternative self been caught? Wang Tianwu had come online this time to retrieve some of the resources he had stored. These were some of the strategic reserves he had accumulated, distributed across various storage companies. This method could effectively ensure the safety of these supplies, and retrieval was easy too; he simply needed the storage companies to use drones to deliver them to the corresponding locations. Wang Tianwu's situation was extremely dangerous; an hour ago, he was nearly driven to a dead end by Ling Huan. If it wasn't for his old nemesis suddenly appearing and joining forces with two enhanced Type-9 combat robots to fight a great battle with Ling Huan in the lower district, Wang Tianwu would have had no way to escape. Upon seeing Fei Yunlai's message, he instinctively became wary. Powerful Horse King (Wang Tianwu): Catch your ass, I'm fine. Invincible Bull (Fei Yunlai): Stubborn as a dead duck, I've already seen the internal company video, isn't that your alternative self? While sending the message, Fei Yunlai not only sent over a mocking emoji but also took the liberty of snapping a screenshot. It was a photo of Wang Tianwu being carried out like a dead pig. Wang Tianwu's face darkened slightly, partly because Fei Yunlai had seen through his situation; on the other hand, he recalled that after his alternative self was caught, Fei Yunlai, who he hadn't contacted in a long while, suddenly reached out to speak with him. Powerful Horse King (Wang Tianwu): What do you want? Invincible Bull (Fei Yunlai): What else could I want? Our BOSS had a bit of a grudge with you before and wanted to deal with your alternative self, so you really should thank me since I've already persuaded the BOSS. After all, it's not easy for the Earth Federation to produce an Eighth Realm. Invincible Bull (Fei Yunlai): However, forget about getting your alternative self and the Battle Dragon back. The BOSS has decided to cryogenically preserve your alternative self. I'll send you a bill each month, and you'll have to pay for the cryo-preservation costs yourself, about five billion Federation dollars a month. We can guarantee to provide them with enough nutrients. After reading Fei Yunlai's message, Wang Tianwu was seething with anger. Five billion Federation dollars a month for cryo-preservation? Were they planning to rob him? What was the difference between this and extortion? Moreover, several of Wang Tianwu's accounts on the dark web had been blocked as well. If he lost access to Tianji Star's alternative self and the Battle Dragon, he would lose all ability to make money; where would he find the funds to pay for this? Powerful Horse King (Wang Tianwu): Old Fei, which company are you working for now? Who's your BOSS? How did I offend him? Can you try to mediate for me? If it comes to it, I could do some work for him—as long as he's willing to return my alternative self, everything's negotiable. Invincible Bull (Fei Yunlai): What clout do I have? I've joined a newly established alternative self company, just starting out not long ago. However, the BOSS himself is incredibly badass. Currently, his influence in the Tianji Star alternative self world is at least TOP30 level. I'm just a small fry in front of him—how can I have a say? Keeping your life is already quite good. Invincible Bull (Fei Yunlai): Also, I'm in hot water myself. I've been targeted by that four-star marshal from the Second Fleet and am now relying on the company for protection. Wang Tianwu was once again taken aback; before, he had heard that a big shot had set sights on Fei Yunlai, likely someone from the military. And who could Fei Yunlai's BOSS be? Able to contend with that four-star marshal and keep Fei Yunlai safe. Wang Tianwu thought for a moment, then tentatively asked: Old Fei, is your company short-staffed? How about I do some short-term work for you guys? He sneered inwardly. The company behind Fei Yunlai thought they could make him work like a horse by holding his alternative self hostage—what a joke! But it wouldn't hurt to play along for now and trick them into giving back his alternative self. Invincible Bull (Fei Yunlai): We are short-staffed! But no matter how desperate, we wouldn't hire you. Everyone knows you're being hunted by Ling Huan now, to the death at that. He doesn't want more trouble. Invincible Bull (Fei Yunlai): That's all, remember to transfer the money later. Of course, you can choose not to, but then our company would have no obligation to maintain your alternative self. Take your pick. After sending the message, Fei Yunlai closed the chat window, planning to leave Wang Tianwu hanging, to put pressure on him. He thought, how could he let old Wang not sign a 200-year contract and be his companion—he wouldn't feel right inside—no! How could he possibly live up to the BOSS's generous treatment?
