Chapter 606: Chapter 579: Undercover (Please Subscribe)
“Clang! Clang! Clang!”
The exchange between Xianyu Yan and Xie Lingguo lasted merely three strikes!
Blood spilled from Xie Lingguo’s mouth and nose, while his insides felt like a burning furnace, boiling all his blood and bodily fluids.
This was because all of Xie Lingguo’s flame-based powers had been reflected back at him by Xianyu Yan and the Demon Mirror.
At this moment, the Demon Mirror was adhered onto Xianyu Yan’s exoskeleton armor.
One controlled kinetic energy, reflecting Xie Lingguo’s strength while the other operated the mirror surface, reflecting all light.
Right now, Linghu Mingde also emerged from the mirror behind Xianyu Yan’s exoskeleton armor.

As soon as he acted, it was a Secret Sword technique that had been charged for at least 7 seconds!
“No~”
Desperation and terror filled Xie Lingguo’s eyes.
Xie Lingguo didn’t want to die. Merely a sliver of a True Spirit with Ninth Realm Emperor Rank strength, he couldn’t maintain his will untainted inside the Heavenly Curtain.
What terrified him was that at this moment, only Yang Lingxiao had arrived to assist, along with another Ninth Realm Emperor Rank Martial Cultivator!
For some reason, Qi Tianquan was a step behind.
“You bastard! My CNM Qi Tianquan~”
Xie Lingguo’s eyes were blood-red, a man extremely shrewd and efficient, otherwise he wouldn’t have been able to grow Xie’s Medical and Healthcare Group to a market value of over a trillion federal coins within a mere 120 years as the 13th generation Alien Walker.
Xie Lingguo had no proof, but he could see through the hearts of men.
Instinctively, he realized that Qi Tianquan wanted him dead, wanted to watch him die!
Thinking of swallowing the fortune I’ve built with my hands? Dream on!
Xie Lingguo sent a message directly to his wife and children; what followed was a flash of white light before him.
“Ssst!”
Xie Lingguo’s entire body and Primordial Spirit were split in two by Linghu Mingde’s sword.
At that moment, the punches from Yang Lingxiao and the blade light from another Ninth Realm Emperor Rank Martial Cultivator were both intercepted by the combined forces of Xianyu Yan and the Demon Mirror’s Battle Dragon.
“Thud!”
A huge hole was blasted into the chest and abdomen of Xianyu Yan’s Battle Dragon by a punch from Yang Lingxiao.
A specialist in Conceptual Power, wielding Thunder, Destruction, and Annihilation, his Martial Arts style was closely related to these concepts.
Even Xianyu Yan’s Wind Martial Arts, which had ascended to a level where she could manipulate kinetic energy and harness solar wind, could not resolve it, and she was severely injured in one strike.
And that was still under the circumstances where ‘Demon Mirror’ Qiu Jingshu helped reflect sixty percent of the power.
However, by this time there was no need for Xianyu Yan’s Battle Dragon to do anything.
All it needed to do was to flee at full speed without being caught or killed by these people.
Simply because at this moment, Linghu Mingde and the Demon Mirror did not need to use Escape Skills to contend with Yang Lingxiao and the others.
After killing Xie Lingguo, he unleashed wave-like sword shadows that flowed like light, almost completely engulfing the surrounding Yang Lingxiao, Qi Tianquan, and others like a raging tide.
In the make-shift combat group that Huo Bangguo resided in, the mood was one of gloom and doom.
“Another has fallen, the third three-star Marshal! The media will probably explode.”
“That old man is really ruthless, sparing no mercy at all, at least that should leave a life.”
“They are all our human heroes, how did it come to this?”
“Haha, according to the media, nearly half of our Earth Federation’s Alien Walkers actually die in internal conflicts rather than on Tianji Star.”
“They got what they deserved, jealous of others making money, scheming to take over someone else’s property, and ended up kicking an iron board!”
“Who could have thought? Linghu Mingde was nearly dead, but now suddenly advanced to Emperor Rank Bloodline ascension!”
“Hmm, the vice Chief of Staff from the President’s side, Ma Shendan, and the Special Envoy from Congress is the Deputy Speaker, Hake Wood. Security Bureau Chief Li Xianglong and Earth Federation Finance Minister Barry Orode are also here—the situation can only truly be handled by these two Senior Senators from Congress.”
Barry Orode had the fastest tunneling speed, turning into a flash of white light and flying to the center of both parties: “Gentlemen, please stop! Marshal Linghu, I also ask you to show mercy and cease fire temporarily.
We are entrusted by the President and Congress to bestow upon you the position of Honorary Member of Congress and represent the government to mediate between you. All of you are heroes of our Federation, we can have a peaceful discussion, there is no need to resort to force.”
At this moment, Huo Bangguo glanced towards Li Xianglong in the distance and noticed that he was also looking in his direction.
When their gazes met, a trace of cold sneer emerged in their eyes.
This Barry Orod has issues. Among so many big shots in Congress, only Barry Orod eagerly jumped out to mediate for Yang Lingxiao and the others.
Huo Bangguo thought that even if this person wasn’t a member of the Longevity Association, he must have a deep connection with them.
Linghu Mingde did not immediately cease his attack until the Deputy Chief of Staff from the President’s office, Ma Shendan also spoke: “Marshal Linghu, the President asked me to convey to you, hoping you can bear with them for the sake of the common fate of the Federation’s humanity, and let these people go.
Of course, the President has no intention to coerce you. His meaning is to invite both sides to have a thorough discussion, to see how Director Yang and Director Qi can compensate you, and what Marshal Linghu needs, and to keep the negotiation going until Marshal Linghu is satisfied. Rest assured, the government will cooperate with the transfer of properties.”
Only then did Linghu Mingde withdraw his sword light.
Although he was stronger overall than Qi Tianquan and Yang Lingxiao, the essence of his power did not truly transcend them, which meant he could not completely kill the two this time.
Since he couldn’t kill them, he could only talk, after all, he had to give face to the President and Congress.
This was also because he had just been promoted to the Ninth Realm and was still a three-star Marshal in terms of cultivation, with his Armament not yet fully replaced.
Once he is promoted to Four-star Marshal, and Shu’er has also raised her cultivation, then when similar issues arise again,
Even the face of the Federation President will not suffice.

Meanwhile, Lin Rui was eyeing Zhu Youheng with suspicion.
Zhu Youheng appeared to be in his twenties, with a fair complexion, elegant features, rosy lips, and white teeth, looking more like a delicate scholar than a soldier.
But in reality, he was over 80 years old, the 15th-generation Alien Walker.
Reaching Eighth Realm Cultivation at his age, and being of Super Emperor bloodline, he was exceptionally outstanding, almost at the level of a Hall of Fame genius.
That’s why, after being discharged from the military, Zhu Youheng was treated as an esteemed guest by various major corporations, all eagerly vying to recruit him.
Now this person was willing to sign a 200-year-long contract with him, including a Divine Contract.
However, resorting to his ‘patriotic sentiment’ as a reason, Zhu Youheng proposed adding a few lines to their Divine Contract and agreement, requesting Lin Rui not make him violate his personal professional ethics.
Lin Rui sneered inwardly; the guy in front of him was playing mind games with him.
Not to go against Zhu Youheng’s personal professional ethics? One of Zhu Youheng’s current roles could very likely be as a spy for the military.
If he really signed the contract according to this guy’s terms, the Divine Contract and the agreement would be almost invalid.
“Mr. Zhu, your request really puts me in a tough spot! Well, it’s not that it can’t be changed, but your proposal won’t do, how about replacing it with something else?”
He smiled and wrote a few lines on the contract.
Zhu Youheng’s eyebrows rose slightly, thinking how odd these conditions were, but he found them acceptable.
Currently, he indeed was listed in the military intelligence bureau, holding a spy identity, reporting directly to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
However, Zhu Youheng had not done anything for the military or the Chairman for over 30 years since his ‘retirement’.
It was not long before the Chairman put this chess piece in play, having him secretly investigate the relationship between Qi Tianquan and the Star Chain Pirate Group, as well as the source of the pirate group’s munitions.
The task was half completed when Qi Tianquan’s stronghold was obliterated by Lin Rui.
But now he had a more important target.
This Lin Rui in front of him was clearly the ‘Children’s Song Killer’!
The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff suspected that this person’s rapid rise might have been with the help of the power of a Sky Extreme Star faction.
And the man himself harbored a great secret; why would those Dragon Transformation Level veterans suffering from Armament Syndrome and mental instability be willing to serve him? How could they return to normal?
And Linghu Mingde, how did he overcome his stubborn illness and advance to the Ninth Realm?
The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff hoped that Zhu Youheng could help the military investigate and understand.
Zhu Youheng certainly did not want to spend his life under Lin Rui’s command, nor did he want to sign this long-term contract for real. He just wanted to win Lin Rui’s trust, find evidence of his crimes, and uncover all his secrets.
With the added conditions written by Lin Rui, in the future, he would be able to disengage from Lin Rui’s leadership without being bound by the contract.
Just as Zhu Youheng was silently smiling about signing the contract, Lin Rui received a message from Linghu Mingde.
Linghu Mingde: The government has intervened for mediation, asking us to make our demands, Xiao Rui, what do you want?
The corners of Lin Rui’s mouth lifted slightly; he wanted many things.
Primarily, some of the formulas and patents held by these pharmaceutical companies could bring huge profits to Rui Fang Pharmaceuticals in the future.
