Biochemical Martial Arts: Supreme Heavenly Venerate

Very few people knew that Fang Xianzheng, the vice president of the National Security Committee, had returned to Ninth Base City once again after half a month.

He was sitting in the chairman's office of the Sky Blue Group, examining Lin Rui's asset status and personal intelligence.

One thing to note is that this intelligence did not come from the "Strategic Intelligence Department" within the Sky Blue Group but rather from the "Intelligence Center" of the Security Bureau headquarters.

Fang Kongfang still found it incredulous, "A full cash acquisition of Hai Lan Alien Company with one hundred billion federal coins? Where did Lin Rui get so much money?"

"It appears from our investigation that he earned it by using a thirty-times leverage from the futures market. Everything looks fine on the surface; it seems quite normal."

Fang Xianzheng shook his head slightly, "If this is true, then this guy is a bold gambler."

Fang Kongfang still found it incredulous.

The Sky Blue Group's total profit for a year was only this much.

But what's this about appearances? Can futures trading even be faked?

Lin Rui was just a college Martial Arts Star, nothing more than having a high talent in Martial Arts and a larger income from popularity. He simply did not have such resources and connections.

And to fake futures trading to the point where no flaws could be detected would require the intervention of a national force with the capacity of East Asia. What abilities does Lin Rui have to deserve such backing?

"His Armored Warriors' strength is also very formidable now. According to internal investigations of the Security Bureau, we previously underestimated the power he holds."

Fang Xianzheng, supporting his chin with one hand, had a strange look in his eyes, "As far as we have confirmed, there are a total of 2342 Alien Walkers, 6 groups of 6S, and over six Type-7 Combat Robots.

There are also at least two at the Seventh Realm. We can now be fairly certain that Gong Hengdao, the top sniper from the Heavenly Soldiers Brigade, is serving him."

Fang Kongfang couldn't help but take a sharp intake of breath. Lin Rui's subordinates included those of the Seventh Realm?

The Sky Blue Group also had more than twenty Seventh Realms, but among these people, perhaps not one could compare to Gong Hengdao.

Even so, the Sky Blue Group treated them like treasures.

It must be mentioned that half of these Seventh Realm powerhouses were responsible for Fang Xianzheng's safety.

"Moreover, Lin Rui has deep ties with the Bright Holy Sect of Ninth Base City. Somehow he has become the head of the Light King Sect, with Fang Ranran using her connections with the Linghu Family to help him obtain the sect's license."

Fang Xianzheng said this much, then laughed sarcastically. "They've also formed a political party, the Light Front, with Wang Song involved as well. Lin Rui became the Executive Vice Chairman, and right now, we're still gathering intelligence on this kid, which should not be all there is to know."

Fang Kongfang's expression was solemn, "Brother, I'm aware of this. Ranran is quite capable. She's essentially hollowed out the core backbone of the Urban Development Party, and they have money on their hands. Plus, with over ten million votes from the Bright Holy Sect, they could get two to three seats in Congress and about 15% of the City Council seats in the coming election. We must take this seriously."

Fang Xianzheng looked up at Fang Kongfang, "Did Sufang say something to you?"

"Yes!" Fang Kongfang smiled freely, "She's very concerned about Ranran's affairs and is very unsatisfied with the company's current situation and your indulgence towards Ranran."

Sufang, named Teng Sufang, was Fang Xianzheng's current wife. Her family also had a prominent position in both political and business circles. Her father served as the vice president of the Senate Construction Committee, and her brother was the chairman of a major enterprise with a market value of three trillion.

"Foolish woman."

Fang Xianzheng's lips curled coldly, his eyes mocking and displeased. "Ranran is also my child, a member of the Fang Family. If she can achieve higher accomplishments, I would be even happier. Do you know what it would mean for our Sky Blue Group if Ranran truly secured 15% of the City Council seats?"

Of course, Fang Kongfang understood. This meant that the satellite city construction project of Ninth Base City or the expansion plan of the Upper District would likely pass.

```

No matter which expansion proposal was chosen, it meant that the assets of the Sky Blue Group were about to surge dramatically.

How could his brothers possibly stop Fang Ranran's moves?

"I just fear Linghu Mingde dies too soon, without the support of the Linghu Family, she might not be able to manage."

Fang Xianzheng walked to the window, "If Teng Sufang comes to you later, just listen to her without taking it seriously. My only request for you, Fang Kongfang, is to run the company well. I'll handle my women myself."

Fang Xianzheng shook his head slightly, a hint of chill in his eyes, "I asked them to approve a subsidy construction bill for a large Star Port, just a matter of 170 billion federal coins, but they keep dragging their feet and won't give a decisive answer. You can also push them on this."

Fang Kongfang chuckled upon hearing this, "I understand, with you saying that, Brother, I'll be able to handle things better..."

He thought Fang Xianzheng was still underestimating Fang Ranran.

The child's ability to weave networks of relationships was not at all weaker than her father's; even if Linghu Mingde died, she might still manage to hold her ground.

There was also Teng Sufang, this woman, and his brother's former sister-in-law who always failed to understand the true nature of their elder brother.

What Fang Xianzheng needed was support, every power that could help him reach the highest point of the political arena.

If the Teng Family could no longer provide aid, or if in the future Fang Ranran could offer Fang Xianzheng more help,

Then Fang Xianzheng would not hesitate to change the future heir.

The older brother's entire estate didn't necessarily have to be left to Teng Sufang and her son.

It was at this moment that Fang Xianzheng received a message.

After a glance, he spoke indifferently, "Minister Li came out. He looks displeased. It seems he has failed. Good advice falls on deaf ears, mercy does not save the self-damned."

Fang Kongfang's expression became solemn. Minister Li, known as Li Tianxing, was not only a Congressional Honorary Member but also the minister of the Federation's national assets, managing national assets worth tens of trillions.

Rumor had it that Li Tianxing had another identity, related to the Longevity Association.

His visit to the Linghu Family today was essentially to deliver Jin Family's final ultimatum.

The reason why his older brother Fang Xianzheng secretly rushed back to Ninth Base City was actually because he had little hope for Linghu Mingde and came back to prepare to divide up the estate of his former father-in-law.

"Brother, Linghu Mingde's strength is 8SSS+, he is a Super Monarch of Eight Realms! He also has many old brothers under his command, loyal to him. Jin Bolong is strong too, but merely in terms of Armored Warriors, both his personal strength and overall power still fall one or two notches below Linghu Mingde."

Fang Kongfang first glanced outside the window, where, overhead Ninth Base City, the sky had become covered with dark clouds, thunder and lightning flashing, the scene portending an imminent storm.

Frowning, he said, "Although Linghu Mingde fell into the 'decline of heaven and man,' if he spares nothing, risking his life, even those Super Emperors of the Ninth Realm would have to give way to him, their victory or defeat is actually uncertain."

"So what if Linghu Mingde wins? How much longer can he live?"

Fang Xianzheng shook his head with a smirk, "Besides, I got word that Jin Bolong has paid a hefty price to enlist the help of two Super Emperors of Eight Realms from inside the Longevity Association. In this battle, regardless of the outcome, Linghu Mingde has lost. A total defeat - all his efforts are in vain."

When Fang Kongfang heard this, a touch of melancholy arose within him.

Actually, during the early years when Fang Xianzheng was first married, the former sister-in-law treated him quite well, and Linghu Mingde also provided much guidance.

Was the elder who once pulled their Fang Family from the brink of disaster about to die?
