But when Lin Rui heard what Wang Sen said next, he couldn’t help but roll his eyes again.
This cold-blooded demon was perfect except for being a little taller and having slight demonic transformation marks at the corners of its eyes.
Who wouldn’t like a dark beauty with such a great figure?
Lin Rui glanced at Wang Sen’s complexion and finally gave him a solid pat on the shoulder.
Gu Ying Tiandao (Lin Rui): Brother, take it easy and watch out for your health!
Gu Ying Tiandao (Lin Rui): How about this, just forward that secret technique of Old Fei to me, and I’ll take a look to see if I can improve on it.
Also, have you decided what kind of enhancements to implant in her?
...
Things are a bit dangerous for me lately; I urgently need more fighting power.
If you’re short on money, just tell me.
Haven’t I set up several foundations to support the variant practitioners?
It’s all the same who I donate to.
This cold-blooded demon has a good foundation; at least two imperial-grade enhancements can be implanted, enabling her talent to reach the threshold of an emperor.
Luckily, Lin Rui has a large number of enhancements at hand, which could be smuggled and transported to Tianji Star.

Wang Sen is now wealthy, too.
He passed the Heavenly Demon Test, and was promoted to Colonel of the Imperial City, allowing him to secure a hefty subsidy from within the Security Bureau.
Just then, Lin Rui heard a sword cry from outside.
It was Lin Xi’s Iron Bone Demon, currently in charge of guarding and watching the house.
It was a signal to the people inside that a guest had arrived.
Lin Rui sensed and found out that outside was none other than Zhao Yingxu—the Miss Zhao.
Behind her were three fully armed house guards and a bunch of servants carrying various baskets and boxes.
After sensing her presence, Lin Rui wasn’t surprised at all.@@@@
He had reckoned that Miss Zhao would come to visit sooner or later.
By now, Lin Rui had basically confirmed that this girl was indeed the variant body of his boss, Fang Ranran.
Recently, the battle between the Linghu family and the Jin family in the ninth base city has been raging, creating quite a stir throughout the city.
They not only fought bitterly in the business world but also affected the parliament, leading to a massive brawl involving six people over an environmental bill.
Linghu Mingde’s offensive was extremely fierce.
It was said that in just a few days, the Jin family had incurred losses exceeding 450 billion federal coins.
The market valuation of their three listed companies took a severe hit, with the downsides of their trading consortium and real estate group reaching 20%.
Lin Rui estimated that if Imperial Censor Zhao Yang was indeed Linghu Mingde, then that person named ‘Yu Wendan’ was likely to be a death warrior from the Jin family.
Lin Rui couldn’t keep his boss waiting outside, nor could he let her wait for too long.
Did he really assist them covertly?
Since the man before her was the commander of the anti-espionage bureau after all, Zhao Yingxu dared not show any disrespect and promptly withdrew her gaze.
She bowed and said, “Your Excellency, my great-grandfather knows you are an incorruptible official with self-restraint, so he had Yingxu bring some grain, oil, and staples, along with the Four Treasures of the Study and some ancient books, as a small token of appreciation.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Rui smiled slightly, but inwardly, he was not impressed.
The Zhao family really didn’t bring any gifts?
Such a practice was truly dreadful.
It was fortunate that Fang Ranran had encountered him; anyone else would likely have been upset.
At that moment, Zhao Yingxu gestured for Zhao Yan to present a book to Lin Rui, saying, “Your Excellency, please look.
These are ancient tomes that my grandfather sought for a long time and are personally transcribed copies by him.”
After receiving the book, Lin Rui appeared quite interested as he casually flipped through it.
He was taken aback to see that the pages of the book were blank; more importantly, the material of the book seemed to be ‘Dragon Skin Paper’?
Dragon Skin Paper was made from the hide of Seventh or even Eighth Realm monstrous beasts or battle dragons, using a special process.
Because it could bear the true essence of dragon-stage martial arts, a single sheet was worth ten taels of divine gold.
If this fifty-page book was made entirely of it, then it represented 500 taels of divine gold.
It seemed that the pile of books over there was also made of this material?
That would be at least three to five thousand pages, probably worth a total of thirty to fifty billion Federation credits.
Lin Rui’s first thought was that the Linghu family truly had deep roots and had the air of a noble house, considering how they delivered such a refined and untraceable gift.
His second thought, however, was one of helpless entanglement.
Was it really okay to accept such a generous gift from his boss?
Wasn’t it inappropriate?
Especially since Fang Ranran was managing the pharmaceutical company for him, and the company’s performance had been soaring these days.
If Ranran, who wouldn’t part with a single hair from her head, found out the truth, would she hit him?
Break off relations with him?
“Furthermore, there’s another matter,” Fang Ranran continued, taking a scroll from her sleeve.
“My great-grandfather heard that you are investigating the unlawful affairs of King Han, and are also looking into leads related to the extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons.
Having served as an official for many years, he happens to possess some relevant information and wishes to share it with you.”
This time, she personally handed the scroll in her hands to Lin Rui.
Lin Rui opened the scroll and his eyes immediately lit up, thinking that King Han was done for.

It was lamentable that he had just received two swords from the emperor, and now he had to move against the emperor’s own son.
Fate truly played cruel games!
Yet, the most significant problem with His Highness King Han wasn’t his lawlessness or his collusion with the Heavenly Demons; it was that he had cuckolded the emperor.
