Chapter 500: Chapter 473: Desperation?

(Third update, please subscribe) Lv Jingwei was indeed Lu Hanyuan, who was now sitting in the hall, waiting with an indifferent and detached expression on his face.

There was a teacup brought by a servant on the tea table beside him, the aroma of the tea wafting through the air, refreshing to the heart and mind, but Lu Hanyuan had no interest in tasting it.

Lu Hanyuan wasn’t nervous or on guard, instead, he had lost interest in everything in the world.

He had come to the Lin Mansion at the behest of a new employer, who had demanded that he arrive in Luojing as quickly as possible to infiltrate the household of the Spy Detection Bureau Commander, Lin Hao.

He felt that this employer was very naïve, not understanding the gravity of the situation.

...

Lin Rui had said he could guarantee his safety and ensure his successful infiltration into the Lin Mansion, but in truth, this employer could guarantee nothing.

Lu Hanyuan couldn’t be bothered to argue and had simply accepted the command, arriving in Luojing as an Alien.

–This was because the defeat of the Jinhao Group had completely crushed his spirit.

Especially since many of the ships of the Jinhao Trading Company had been built and operated by him.

All Lu Hanyuan could do was watch helplessly as those ships were sunk, and then as the once thriving company crumbled and was picked apart by rivals.

His heart was almost entirely filled with despair, feeling that everything was ruined.

In fact, Jin Bolong wasn’t particularly kind to him either, even harboring a hint of wariness, but after all, that was the career he had fought for all his life.

Now, Lu Hanyuan no longer had much desire to live.

The only reason he still breathed was out of concern for his family; he worried that his employers would take their anger out on them if he died.

So when Lin Rui gave the order, Lu Hanyuan came without hesitation, thinking that if he were to die following the employer’s orders, at least his family might survive.

From what he saw in Lin Rui’s secret base, this temporary master indeed had something extraordinary about him, possibly even hiding astonishing secrets.

Otherwise, someone like Wang Tianwu wouldn’t willingly serve him, and the First Saintess of the Mechanical God Temple wouldn’t refer to him as “the Divine Above.” But what did that matter to an old man whose spirits were thoroughly deflated?

Lu Hanyuan hadn’t even made any preparations before he came, nor had he left himself any escape routes.

If Lin Hao discovered his Heavenly Demon identity, then he would just die here, that’s all.

At this moment, Lin Xi was sitting opposite him, holding a teacup in one hand, sipping tea while looking over the so-called “wandering martial artist” with a strange look in her eyes.

She guessed that this man must undoubtedly be Lu Hanyuan, whose Cultivation was at least of the Eighth Realm, his aura so well-concealed that Lin Xi couldn’t see through to his true foundation.

Lu Hanyuan had immersed himself in the ‘Reach the Sky’ of the Eighth Realm for a hundred years, his accumulations far deeper than that of Wang Tianwu.

–This was Lin Rui’s second reserve Two Stars Marshal, so Lin Xi took him very seriously.

However, this reserve Two Stars Marshal’s mental state was highly concerning.

He practically had an “I’m here to die” expression on his face.

“Actually, Mr.

Lv didn’t need to be like this,” Lin Xi said lightly with a smile full of implications, “My brother, though stern in appearance, has a kind heart.

Once you get to know him, you’ll see that he is truly a magnanimous, loyal, and sincere gentleman, pure as refined gold and white jade.”

Lu Hanyuan thought to himself that wasn’t at all obvious.

What kind of person was the Commander of the Spy Detection Bureau, Lin Hao?

He was someone who made the Federation Security Bureau issue three warning letters, breaking several major Heavenly Demon cases right after taking office, deterring Alien Walkers from the Federation from easily entering the Capital.

The woman in front of him was also quite extraordinary, having troubled the many royal clans of the Great Song and the emperor’s close officials over the last two months, creating such an uproar that the emperor had no choice but to promote and transfer her away, eagerly sending her off to the Divine Supervision Bureau like bidding farewell to a plague god.

He let out a carefree smile and reverently lifted his teacup in return, “What Deputy Commander Zhou says is true.

I’ve long heard of Commander Lin’s renown, and respect him as a hero cherished greatly by the people of Luojing.”

The people of Luojing did indeed like Lin Hao.

But this was not because Lin Hao struck against the Heavenly Demons; rather, because Lin Hao had won the favor of the upright Imperial Censors.

As a result, mentions of Lin Hao inside the teahouses, wine shops, and brothels were met with nothing but praise.

Moreover, Lin Hao had vigorously investigated the Capital Prefecture’s officials and the imperial guards, harshly disciplining the Government Officials and patrol guards, significantly improving the security in the Imperial City, bringing indeed great benefits to the people of Luojing.

However, Lu Hanyuan found it strange; he felt that this young girl named Zhou Yunxi seemed somewhat familiar.

Lin Xi caught the insincerity in Lu Hanyuan’s words, but nodded without taking offense.

Lu Hanyuan’s ambitions were already destroyed, which was normal; the crushing defeat suffered by Jinhao Group had nearly robbed Lu Hanyuan of everything he had.

Lin Xi looked up at the sky, her mind heavy with thoughts.

Although her brother had successfully rescued Yi, Lin Xi could clearly feel that the situation they, as siblings, faced was getting even more dire.

The cultivation of Yi’s alien body consumed a great deal of her brother’s energy every day.

Although her brother outwardly appeared nonchalant, confidently composed in front of others, Lin Xi knew that the use of the Purifying Fire was extremely draining and exhausting for Lin Rui.

In addition, Heart of Light No.

9 had issued a warning that several forces were currently investigating and monitoring them, and No.

9 had determined that some of those forces definitely belonged to the Longevity Association.

Clearly, the incident that had taken place at the Divine Light Army’s secret base had alerted the Longevity Association.

Although up to that point, the fact that her brother possessed Abyss Power had not been revealed, just the strength that they now controlled was enough to make some in the Longevity Association feel uneasy.

So now, they needed to help her brother make money as quickly as possible, then exhaust all means to help her brother increase his power—including all aspects of it.

It was at this moment, Lin Rui walked in laughing, with Shangguan Tianyi beside him, “I heard magpies chirping when we left the house today; it turns out we have an esteemed guest.”

Lu Hanyuan turned solemn and looked over to ‘Lin Hao’.

This Commander of the Spy Detection Bureau, with a height of 2.4 meters, had handsome and noble features, a tall stature, and well-proportioned limbs.

By the standards of the Sky Extreme Star people or human aesthetics, he was a beautiful man.

He was dressed in the robes of a fifth-grade official of the Imperial City Department, full of vigor and grandeur.

“A wandering warrior, Lv Jingwei, pays respects to Sir Lin.”

Heart dead and wooden, Lu Hanyuan gave Lin Hao a cursory glance and then bowed in a salute, “Lv has heard that Sir is recruiting a housekeeper and Protector instructor, requiring cultivation of the Seventh Realm, and a bloodline not inferior to a Super King.

Although Lv is not talented, I have come to apply.”

Lin Rui looked at Lu Hanyuan thoughtfully, “Mr.

Lv, before we discuss this matter, could you please condense a drop of blood for me?”

Upon hearing this, Lu Hanyuan felt a slight sinking of his heart, and thought to himself that Lin Hao was truly not easy to fool!

What did the other party want to do?

Were they going to use some Imperial City Department Secret Technique to use his blood to identify his Heavenly Demon identity?

In the past, Lu Hanyuan would have fled at the sound of ‘whoosh’, but now he honestly squeezed out a drop of essence blood for Lin Hao.

Lin Rui saw this scene, and his gaze became strange.

He only wanted a drop of blood to compare genes, to confirm whether this Lv Jingwei was actually Lu Hanyuan, and to enter it into Lin Mansion’s array and security systems, so that Lv Jingwei could come and go freely.

To his surprise, Lu Hanyuan readily gave a drop of essence blood.

Lin Rui remembered how, two days prior, he had given instructions to Mr.

Lu.

He had thought Lu Hanyuan would argue, and perhaps would have had to reveal that his alien identity was Lin Hao, just to get Lu Hanyuan to obey.

Yet, Lu Hanyuan had complied without a word.

Mr.

Lu’s mental state was indeed in very bad shape; no wonder Marshal Linghu said that the Linghu Family couldn’t possibly get Lu Hanyuan to serve wholeheartedly.

Lin Rui smiled slightly and then turned to Lin Xi, “Xi, you have things to attend to first, so go ahead.

I will take Mr.

Lv for a walk around the mansion.”

Lin Xi nodded, getting up and leaving the great hall.

She had indeed been very busy lately.

Ever since her transfer to the position of Deputy Commander of the Divine Supervision Bureau, she had started to investigate the finances of the various departments of the Imperial City Department, especially institutions like the treasury of confiscated goods and the Identification Institute.

This was all to pave the way for her brother.

Only by uncovering problems would they be able to kick out the old personnel from these places, making it easy for Lin Rui to operate, and allowing people from East Asia and the Security Bureau to take their places.

Lin Rui then smiled and gestured for Lu Hanyuan to follow, taking him for a tour inside the Lin Mansion.

Actually, there was not much to see; the Lin Mansion only spanned an area of 50 acres.

For a master like Lu Hanyuan, a few glances in each direction would be enough to take in everything.

However, when Lin Hao took him down a corridor in the back yard to a hidden elevator, Lu Hanyuan’s face finally changed slightly.

How could there be such a thing in the residence of the formidable Commander Lin Hao of the Spy Detection Bureau?

“This was provided by the Identification Institute, to let me experience what is known as Heavenly Demon Technology.”

Lin Rui stood with his hands behind his back, waiting for the elevator to slide deeper underground: “Mr.

Lu, I’ve heard that Mr.

Lu once declared at the Jinhao Group’s annual meeting that given a hundred years, you could manage Jinhao Group into the world’s leading logistics and trading company?”

Instantly, Lu Hanyuan’s scalp tingled, his fists clenched, and his muscles tensed up.

He realized that this Lin Hao not only recognized his identity but also knew detailed information about his true self!
