Biochemical Martial Arts: Supreme Heavenly Venerate-Chapter 501
Chapter 501: Chapter 474 Chapter 501: Chapter 474 “Clang!”
Shangguan Tianyi, who had been following Lin Rui, sensed Lu Hanyuan’s hostile murderous intent and immediately drew her sword from its sheath, locking Lu Hanyuan down with an incredibly fierce Sword Intent.
Lu Hanyuan did not care and kept his gaze fixed on the back of “Lin Hao,” his voice hoarse, “Mr.
Lin, how did you know of my identity, and what are your intentions?”
Was it Lin Rui, his new employer, who had leaked his identity?
But why?
At the same time, he was puzzled as to why Lin Hao dared to speak these words in the confined space of an elevator.
Was he not afraid that he would erupt in a murderous rage?

In the elevator, Lin Rui could not summon the projections of the Ninth Realm Battle Dragons.
...
As for Shangguan Tianyi behind him, though she was strong—rumored to be at the Sixth Realm Emperor Rank—her cultivation was still a whole two realms below his.
In this confined space, Shangguan Tianyi’s speed and strength were far inferior to his, her formidable Sword Dao had no room to unfold, and she was far less experienced in combat.
Lu Hanyuan believed that if he made a move, he could defeat Lin Hao within at most ten rounds.
He even began to feel eager, thinking that sacrificing his miserable life to kill this Commander of the Spy Detection Bureau, who had been a headache for the major powers of the Earth Federation, was worthwhile after all.
“Mr.
Lu, being Jin Bolong’s strategist, with your intelligence, haven’t you figured it out yet?”
Lin Rui shook his head slightly, his expression helpless, “It seems like after that great defeat, Mr.
Lu really lost all will, too lazy even to think.”
Lu Hanyuan pondered what he should have realized.
At this moment, the elevator doors had already opened, and Lin Rui took the lead in stepping out.
Lu Hanyuan was about to follow when a sudden thought flashed through his mind.
His pupils contracted sharply, “Are you ‘Mr.
Lin’?”
This young man from Sky Extreme Star, right in front of him, was his new employer, Lin Rui!
Lin Rui was indeed the Commander of the Spy Detection Bureau from Great Song—the feared “King Yama’s Blade” Lin Hao!
Lin Hao turned out to be an Alien Walker and his new employer?
Lu Hanyuan suddenly understood why Linghu Mingde valued Lin Rui so much and why Linghu Mingde had handed him over to Lin Rui.
So, when they had sent a doomed warrior to denounce Linghu Mingde, it was literally a dive onto the enemy’s blade.
He grimaced as he thought this.
Neither he nor Jin Bolong even understood who their enemies were, or their true nature.
How could they not be defeated?
“Follow up!” Lin Rui continued walking forward, “I would like to know if Mr.
Lu ever mentioned building the world’s top cargo trading company?”
“I did,” Lu Hanyuan’s gaze was vacant, his whole demeanor dazed as he followed behind Lin Rui.
“But that was just a reckless boast when I had a small success and got carried away.
Thinking back now, I really didn’t understand how high the sky and how deep the earth were.”
—Shortly after he spoke those words, he and Jin Bolong were transferred away from Jin Hao Trading Company.
Lin Rui nodded slightly, “After that, Mr.
Lu’s cultivation hasn’t advanced any further, has it?
Because of a depressed spirit?”
Lu Hanyuan was startled at the question and stared at Lin Rui, “That’s partly the reason, but more so because my talent is limited.
Reaching this stage is already my limit.”
Lin Rui smiled at the response but remained noncommittal, “Mr.
Lu has looked over the materials for Ruisen Trading Company that I sent you, right?
How do you feel?”
Lu Hanyuan had looked over the company materials, which Lin Rui had sent to his email just a day ago, even asking him for any suggestions.
He was bored anyway, glanced through it casually, and lost interest without intending to offer any suggestions.
Previously, Lu Hanyuan had felt that the company indeed had potential, and Lin Rui’s related background was startling.
But now, he felt—
Lu Hanyuan took a deep breath, “This company has boundless potential — it is limitless!”
He had come to know that Lin Rui was Lin Hao and realized that this man must certainly have strong backers within the Security Bureau, possibly even connections with East Asia.
Lu Hanyuan had reviewed the financial reports of Ruisen Trading Company, a firm that had acquired dozens of ship licenses and several decommissioned military starships from East Asia at cost price, almost without any cost.
The energy of this company was vast, capable of concealing the heavens and covering the earth!
Its resources were so immense that no other trading company could compare.
“It seems, sir, that you have great confidence in me.” Lin Rui turned around and smiled, “Then, if I give Mr.
Lu 20 years, could you develop this company into a world-class enterprise?”
Lu Hanyuan thought to himself, why would it need 20 years?
Just give him 15 years, no!
Just let Lin Rui continue in his position as a Commander at the Spy Detection Bureau, and 10 years would suffice.
His old connections in the financial and shipbuilding sectors were mostly still intact, and combined with Lin Rui’s resources, it would be easy to elevate this company to a medium-to-large scale.
Yet, Lu Hanyuan maintained his silence, not uttering a word.
Lin Rui, noticing this, continued unconcerned, “Talent can be enhanced, I know the Security Bureau and East Asia’s merit systems have these resources, and luckily I can also obtain them.
“Mr.
Lu, if I could help you and your Mecha Dragon replace your body’s eighth-generation armament and once again achieve a level of Spirit and Body Integration, while reducing your spiritual burden by 25%, would you then have the confidence to advance further in Martial Arts?”
Lu Hanyuan’s eyes showed astonishment.
Was what his new employer saying really feasible?
If it were indeed possible to replace his system with the latest version of Spirit and Body Integration, reducing spiritual burdens by 25%, then he was absolutely confident of advancing to Ninth Realm Super King!
He might even progress further by implanting one or two more powerful armaments, raising his overall combat level to that of an Emperor Rank at the Ninth Realm.
Lu Hanyuan had been accumulating power in the Eighth Realm for over a century, hindered by insufficient spiritual power talent.
As for becoming a Ninth Realm Super King — that was at the level of a Congressional Honorary Member, something Lu Hanyuan dared not even contemplate.
But could Lin Rui really make this happen?
“It seems Mr.
Lu is hesitant to believe,” said Lin Rui, “But you’ll learn, the longer you work with me, that I actually detest people who boast.
I own a company, Ruifang Biological Prosthetics Research Institute.
They are working on some interesting things; you might want to take a look sometime.”
Lin Rui continued leading Lu Hanyuan further inside.
“As you can see, the structure of Lin Mansion is quite simple, and there’s nothing particularly important, but the security systems and talismanic arrays inside the dwelling mainly prevent our conversations from being intercepted.
“Everything in this underground base comes from the Identification Institute, and of particular importance is the surgical room, which can be used to perform armament surgeries on my subordinates.
You might not know this, but I am a direct disciple of Academician Huangfu, and Professor Sima believes my surgical skills are now at 60 to 70 percent of his.
“However, even if this place were discovered, it wouldn’t much matter, Mr.
Lu.
Your primary task remains ensuring my safety and forming my security team.”
Lin Rui turned his head and glanced at Lu Hanyuan, “Additionally, regarding my Ruisen Trading Company and Ruisen Shipbuilding Company, if you are interested, Mr.
Lu, you could help manage them.
I can offer you the roles of Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer for these two companies, with contracts matching the highest standards in the industry.
As long as the results you produce satisfy me, I won’t be stingy with salary and stock options.
“By the way, have I heard correctly that Mr.
Lu has many old subordinates?
I heard that most of them left Jinhao Trading Company shortly after you were transferred.
If any suitable and reliable individuals are among them, Mr.
Lu, perhaps you could introduce them.”
Lu Hanyuan had indeed managed a group of elites at Jinhao Trading Company in the past, which Lin Rui found very appealing.
With these people, the framework of the trading company could truly be established.
Also, Lu Hanyuan might be able to first poach a group from the current Jinhao Trading Company to join them.
Hearing this, Lu Hanyuan regarded Lin Rui with an odd look.
“Mr.
Lin, does this mean you intend to leave the trading company in my hands?
Are you comfortable with that?”
Lin Rui laughed heartily upon hearing this, “What do I have to be concerned about?
My magnanimity surely surpasses that of Jin Bolong, and I would never adopt a ‘burn the bridges’ approach after use.
“If you’re willing to take over these two companies, you’ll truly be the Chief Executive Officer, though, of course, there will still be necessary financial oversight and personnel supervision internally.”
Lin Rui was merely concerned that his companies weren’t developing fast enough, lacking sufficient manpower and combat power.
Even if he had to worry about Lu Hanyuan usurping his position, that would only be a concern once the trading company had developed significantly.
By now, Lin Rui had reached a practice room and his expression became solemn as he looked inside at Ji Xueying sitting cross-legged.
Lu Hanyuan also glanced at Ji Xueying in the practice room.
Initially, he hadn’t paid much attention, but soon he uttered a sound of surprise.
