"Delicious! Delicious! The texture is chewy, and the flavor is fresh and fragrant, not bad at all. It truly lives up to its reputation as a decades-old establishment!"

As Wang Sen relished his bowl of noodle soup, he flipped through Blood Blade Ji's dossier.

His main attention was on the bowl, and he couldn't help but inwardly exclaim.

So this is the wheat and noodles of Tianji Star? Indeed, it has a different flavor, chewier than the noodles on Earth Federation, less mushy and soft.

"I've finished reading. The house of Blood Blade Ji's master has the surname Yuan, they're major merchants from the capital. Her master's name is Yuan Yi, the legitimate eldest son of the Yuan family, currently 12 years old. He came over to learn how to collect medicinal materials from his uncle, and ended up being beheaded by Blood Blade Ji in his sleep at Zuihua House.

After the incident that day, the magistrate Jiang immediately arrested Yuan's servants for interrogation, hence the details about Blood Blade Ji's background came to light—"

As Wang Sen spoke, he pushed the dossier towards Lin Rui, "Take a look as well, Brother Twelve."

Lin Rui couldn't help but roll his eyes.

I'm illiterate now, how could I possibly understand?

All he could do was to feign understanding as he opened the dossier, pretending to read seriously while waiting for the translation from the smart assist system.

At this moment, a sudden flash of red appeared beside him, expressionlessly looking at the words on the dossier.

Wang Sen continued, "Blood Blade Ji's original surname is Ji, her name is Ji Xueying, she is a descendant of the former Great Zhou royal family. It is said that she is the direct descendant of the last Emperor Zhou of the Great Zhou dynasty. The girl was born physically weak and plagued with illnesses since birth, which led to her family's dire straits. All six members struggled to survive.

About three years ago, her family was embroiled in a lawsuit. Not only was Ji Xueying gravely ill and near death, but her father was also arrested and imprisoned by the authorities. They were forced to leave their hometown, leading a life of hardship and starvation. It was at this time that Yuan's people approached them.

Yuan's family was willing to pay for their settlement and buy them a thousand acres of land. They were also willing to pull some strings to get her father out of prison, all in exchange for Ji Xueying to transform into Blood Blade Ji and protect her master for life."

After finishing his explanation, he 'tsked' in amazement. "It's no wonder the magistrate Jiang didn't dare to round up Blood Blade Ji. If what Yuan's servant told is true, Blood Blade Ji might not be just an ordinary demon, but a king-level one! She's the direct descendant of Emperor Zhou."

Lin Rui felt his scalp tingle once again.

So his cautiousness over the past few days was indeed correct.

A king-level demon of the fourth realm... I'm afraid even the County Magistrate can't subdue her.

And with the County Magistrate and magistrate Jiang in possession of such a trump card, how is the County Magistrate supposed to compete with them?

At the same time, doubt surfaced in Lin Rui's eyes as he thought about what these two were really after.

It seemed that their goal wasn't simply to vie for power with the County Magistrate.

Lin Rui closed the dossier and fell into deep thought, "So Blood Blade Ji doesn't hold any grudge against her master's family?"

"She probably doesn't, and she might even feel grateful," Wang Sen slurped his noodles. "After all, she was on her deathbed at that time. It must have seemed like a good deal to exchange her worthless life for the wealth and comfort of the family that had taken care of her for so long. A big merchant family like Yuan's definitely handles things properly, and they wouldn't leave any loose ends."

"There's also say in the dossier that when the incident happened, there was no conflict between Yuan Yi and Blood Blade Ji. Although that kid was up to no good, staying in brothels at the age of 12, he never had designs on Blood Blade Ji. How should I put it? Yuan Yi didn't fancy her because he thought Blood Blade Ji was rather plain-looking and too short."

Lin Rui was taken aback when he heard this, and glanced over at the red figure beside him.

Blood Blade Ji is plain? She's so beautiful.

He then realized that this girl probably didn't fit the aesthetics of the people of Tianji Star, unlike himself, Lin Twelve, who was considered handsome by both standards.

"That's really strange, isn't it said that the minds of demons like Blood Blade Ji are very stable? How could she lose control?" Lin Rui, seeing Wang Sen enjoying his meal, also started to eat his noodles.

This was the mentality he had developed in his past life; even if death loomed, he would still eat and drink as he should.

As he ate, he pondered the words he had overheard: "Twenty-seven, aside from the Blood Covenant, do you know any other way to temporarily control Blood Blade Ji?"

"How would I know?"

Wang Sen thought, 'Monsterology' at school doesn't teach this. He then activated his smart assist system, hoping to find relevant information.

After opening it, Wang Sen remembered that the network was down. The quantum communication relay devices set up by the Federation had been destroyed.

The thought crossed his mind that perhaps this was for the best; it would save him money.

Using the quantum communication relay device for the internet was expensive, costing a thousand Federation coins per minute.

"I'll look it up when I return tonight," Wang Sen hinted ambiguously as he finished the soup in his bowl, "Boss, another bowl for me, this time with beef, and extra portions!"

He had yet to try the beef of Tianji Star.

The cows here were different from the ones on Earth, with only one horn on their forehead, exceptionally muscular, and three times the size of Earth's cattle, and incredibly strong.

However, their temperament was very docile and they had been domesticated by the people of Tianji Star for over twenty thousand years, capable of helping with various farming tasks, and their meat was also very delicious.

Lin Rui thoughtfully acknowledged.

It was indeed time to return. Given his current situation, unless he decided to flee his position right now, he was bound to die.

He needed to go back to Base Nine and look up the information, think of a solution, and see if there was a way to avoid this disaster.

Deep down, Lin Rui was actually very determined. He would not ask Fang Ranran for help unless absolutely necessary.

※※※※

After breakfast, the two continued their routine search for traces of demons near Zuihua Alley.

Today, however, for some reason, Lin Rui searched back and forth for a whole day and couldn't sense even a trace of demonic Qi.

Nevertheless, the many townspeople they encountered along the way were all very respectful and enthusiastic toward them.

After walking through several alleys, they were laden with a multitude of local specialties from Silvermoon County, and Wang Sen's belly was stuffed full with various snacks.

When they went to eat lunch, the restaurant owner even wanted to waive their bill for food and drinks.

The owner was incredibly grateful to Lin Rui: "Arrest Officer Lin, you have no idea, lately we've been living in fear every day, not daring to step out at night and even in daylight, people don't want to go outside unless necessary. My restaurant hasn't had any business for several days.

It's all thanks to Arrest Officer Lin, everyone says that you alone killed five demons and three demonic cultivators three days ago, and since then there have been no more murder cases in this area. You have literally saved my business from disaster."

The owner insisted on not charging, so Lin Rui had no choice but to flick a few copper coins into the restaurant's cashbox when leaving.

Next, they discovered that two brothels in Hanhua Alley had reopened.

These brothel owners were also very enthusiastic, each leading a group of heavily made-up girls, trying to drag them in to 'thank' them properly.

Poor Lin Rui and Wang Sen, still virgins pure and simple, couldn't get past their own inhibitions, and not yet used to such aesthetics, had no choice but to flee Hanhua Alley in a panic.

After coming out, Wang Sen sighed deeply, "Actually, the people of Tianji Star are just like us humans, with emotions like joy, anger, sorrow, and pleasure, with desires and needs. These common people we've interacted with are very honest and kind. I just don't understand, why must it be a matter of life and death between us and Tianji Star?"

Lin Rui shook his head, "That's not necessarily the case. Haven't you seen the news? Doesn't the leadership of our East Asian Republic always emphasize in the news the need to be vigilant, to have contact and coexistence? While all the forces within Tianji Star are hostile to the Federation, there are still factions that support peace. It's just a pity—"

A pity that the Earth Federation is just a federation, a relatively loose political entity, where each member state has a high degree of autonomy. Enjoy new adventures from empire

The expedition to Tianji Star 800 years ago was led by other member states within the Federation. The East Asian Republic, due to its history of colonization, abhorred this colonial war and thus avoided the disaster, preserving its national power intact.

Today, of the 12 satellites and 14 base cities on Tianji Star, 7 satellites and 7 of the cities' ownership belong to the East Asian Republic. Four are exclusively managed, and three are co-managed with the Federation government, including the ninth base city which is one of the co-managed cities.

If other member states of the Earth Federation hadn't protested at the time, the East Asian Republic had the financial resources to cover all 12 satellites of Tianji Star.

—According to the leader of the East Asian Republic at the time, the moment the Earth Federation launched the colonial war against Tianji Star, the Republic was inevitably drawn into it.

As part of humanity, they've been dug into this pit and, willing or not, they'll be seen as enemies by the people of Tianji Star.

Lin Rui very much agrees with the leader's philosophy.

Coexistence has its conditions; to live with lions, one must possess power equal to the lions', and thus they cannot escape.

The East Asian Republic wants to consolidate the opinions within humanity, and that requires a necessary condition—overwhelming power! The strength to silence everyone!

"This is not something we should worry about," Lin Rui quickened his pace, "Come on, we should go back!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Sen's eyebrows perked up, his eyes filled with anticipation.

That very evening, the two returned to the small courtyard where they lived and directly selected the option to return in the smart assistance system.

When Lin Rui woke up in the resting room of Mingde University's Martial Arts Club, he could feel that his body had undergone some changes.

His qi and blood seemed more abundant and powerful, much stronger than before!

Was it the effect of the Type 3 Godsleep? But could the sleep pod be that powerful? According to the instructions, the pod could only assist with the circulation of his main body's energy while his consciousness was occupying another body, without affecting his daily cultivation.

No, it's more than that, it's also due to the 'Symbiotic Assimilation Effect'.

While an Exobodied Walker manipulates an exobody, their main body will also undergo changes in tandem with the exobody, which is what the textbooks refer to as the 'Symbiotic Assimilation Effect'.

Lin Rui feels that his benefits are particularly evident and guesses it's related to that unknown perfect Sacred Body.

He subsequently found that his communication system had many unread messages.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

However, Lin Rui didn't check them right away but directly opened Professor Sima's chat box instead.

Gu Ying Tiandao (Lin Rui): Professor, I'm back. I wonder if you're free and able to help me with the implantation of the wheel meridians soon?

Professor Sima responded immediately.

Divine Doctor Sima (Si Malin): Alright, wait for me! I'm on my way.

His tone sounded somewhat impatient.

Meanwhile, in an underground garage 2500 meters away, a middle-aged Caucasian man hidden inside a hovercar perked up.

He sensed the mark he left with a psychic Secret Technique; Lin Rui had returned from Tianji Star.

The Caucasian middle-aged man smiled faintly, started the engine of the hovercar, and sent a message to someone.

"Director, he's back."

"Good, move fast. Tell me the result before midnight."

As the middle-aged man read the response, he shook his head helplessly. It seemed that the director had completely lost his patience.

Fortunately, the security forces in the civil servant residential area had been significantly reduced, and he had rented a house near Lin Rui's home, which would allow him to use that Secret Technique to probe Lin Rui's soul in peace.
