Chapter 547: Huge Waves (Subscribe)

Inside the second dining center of the National Arts Center, exclamations were heard one after another.

"That's Alta Devonshire! Is he dead?"

"How is this possible? What on earth is going on?"

"It was actually hung on the flagpole? When was it?"

"Isn't this possible? I didn't sense any strong etheric fluctuations in the city just now. Is that a cloned body on the flagpole?"

"It should be Alta Devonshire. I recognize him and his two business partners. This doesn't seem like an illusion or cloning scam. It doesn't make any sense."

"The problem is that Alta Devonshire is at the Ninth Realm Emperor level. When I spoke to him on the phone earlier, his motorcade had already entered the city center. Who could do this?"

"The key is timing. It's only been 12 minutes since you finished talking to Alta Devonshire on the phone."

"No! Probably less than two minutes. Look at the video I posted in the group chat. This was six minutes ago when the Devonshire convoy entered the A6 underground tunnel. Adding the time it took them to hang the Devonshire on the flagpole, it probably took less than two minutes."

Almost all the guests at the table were talking in low voices, and they deliberately lowered their voices to avoid being heard by Lin Rui.

Those in the Eight Realms who had originally tried to use their divine thoughts to intimidate and oppress him, all of them at this moment spontaneously withdrew their divine thoughts.

However, they all looked at Lin Rui with shock and confusion, as well as strong fear in their eyes.

"This is insane! A 9SS, two 8SS, and over 30 6th and 7th realm masters were all dealt with in just a few seconds, without even causing any noticeable fluctuations in energy. Was this done by that little—that Lin Rui? How did he do it?"

"It was Linghu Mingde, right? It must have been Linghu Mingde who did it."

"It's not him. I've confirmed it. Mr. Yang has an appointment with Linghu Mingde for dinner tonight. He said Linghu Mingde has been right in front of him the entire time, never out of his sight. I'm afraid Linghu Mingde wouldn't be able to do that, right?"

"So it's not this Ms. Qiu either. It seems that this Lin Rui shouldn't be underestimated! Chairman Qi and the others underestimated his strength. This kid didn't get to this point entirely because of the Linghu family."

"Indeed! I'm afraid Lin Rui's background isn't as simple as we've investigated. Just think about it. How did a student who's only reached the fourth level of cultivation win over so many Dragon Transformation masters?"

"Look at the two people next to him, they are Wang Tianwu and Lu Hanyuan. The one with the surname Wang is fine, as he is the mother of the family. But Lu Hanyuan is not someone who can be recruited by just anyone."

Just as everyone was talking about it, Fang Ranran was looking at the scene outside the glass window and was shocked and dazed.

She turned her head and looked at Lin Rui in disbelief: "Xiao Rui, did you do this?"

This guy actually got Alta Devonshire.

Fang Ranran immediately felt that what she said was wrong. Wasn't this giving others a handle?

Although the Earth Federation has gradually fallen into the control of many honorary members of Congress, it is still a society ruled by law on the surface.

In addition to the rule of law, there is also public opinion. The federal media and self-media are very developed, and they are good at stirring up trouble and creating waves.

In public, if they said something wrong, it could cause Lin Rui a lot of trouble.

So she shook her head and changed the question: "Have you solved the previous trouble?"

Lin Rui smiled slightly. "It's not completely solved. Look here, aren't there still a lot of trouble? A bunch of monsters and demons."

His words caused the faces of the many Eighth Realm cultivators in the restaurant to darken, their eyes blazing with anger. However, they remained silent, sitting in their original positions without saying a word. The atmosphere throughout the restaurant was gloomy and depressing.

Lin Rui waved his hand to signal the waiter next to him to leave. "But don't worry, these monsters in the sewers are not a threat. Anyone who dares to lay a hand on our company will be killed by me!"

At this moment, he turned his head and looked at Qi Tianquan, the honorary member of Congress and chairman of Tianquan Biological Company.

The two looked at each other, and sparks seemed to fly between them.

There was a hint of anger and murderous intent in Qi Tianquan's eyes, and he looked quite surprised.

Not only did Lin Rui dare to look him in the eye, he also did not back down in the face of his powerful spiritual pressure.

——Is this really a four-realm realm?
Qi Tianquan really wanted to respond to Lin Rui's provocation, but the death of Alta Devonshire made him feel cold and he had to be patient for a while.

After all, in the entire Earth Federation, there are very few people who can kill Alta Devonshire in just a few tens of seconds. They are all Ninth Realm Emperors who have mastered the 9SSS+ level ultimate secret weapons, or Ninth Realm Super Emperors, or God-Envoy-level existences!
Qiu Jingshu looked at Lin Rui with an increasingly admiring expression.

She wondered if this was the 'Hidden Prince' of the Song Dynasty. His skills and aura were both domineering and powerful, much stronger than her old man's when he was young.

The hidden prince mentioned here does not refer to the hidden prince of a certain ancient East Asian dynasty, but the name given to Lin Hao by the government and the public in the Song Dynasty.

Just as the two of them stared at each other from afar like thunder and fire on the ground, and the atmosphere in the restaurant center became increasingly cold, they both turned their heads at the same time to look at the holographic projection video that was being played in the center of the restaurant center.

Not only the two of them, but everyone present looked in the direction of the video.

It was a holographic TV that was supposed to entertain diners and provide them with news and information.

The volume of this TV is at the lowest level, but it does not affect the viewing of the many colonial-style martial artists present.

"—Now, an urgent news interruption. Just ten minutes ago, Commander Zang Shaochen of the Second Star Fleet of the Federation Star Navy decided to surrender to the Capital Police Headquarters. This is the footage captured by our reporters. Zang Shaochen has arrived at the police station under the escort of numerous military and police officers."

"Zang Shaochen, nicknamed 'White Wolf of the Star Sea,' was born in 3821 AD. He is the ninth generation of the Federation's alien walker and one of the fourteen currently known 14SSS-class colonial warriors. He assisted the Federation in suppressing the Shenzhaohui Rebellion 9 years ago. Shortly thereafter, he became an honorary member of Congress and remains the commander of the Second Star Fleet until today."

"Not long ago, Zang Shaochen was not only implicated in the blasphemy incident that broke out in Luojing, the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, but he also personally attempted to assassinate Lin Hao, the commander of the Great Song Dynasty's Traitor Assassination Bureau. This angered the Eastern Abyss, prompting the Great Song Dynasty's Honglu Temple to issue an ultimatum to the Federation. Zang Shaochen was specifically singled out by the Eastern Abyss as someone who must be punished."

"Dear viewers, we saw Zang Shaochen stopped on the steps of the police station. He seemed to be interested in an interview. Let's hear what he said."

Lin Rui saw Zang Shaochen in the video, standing on the last step of the Capital Police Headquarters, looking down at the reporters in front of him and the large group of microphones that were about to hit his face.

His long silver hair fluttered in the wind, and his handsome face was pale and bloodless, giving people a feeling of sadness and desolation.

"You asked me why I turned myself in? Did I believe I was guilty? That's a good question."

Zang Shaochen smiled sarcastically, almost self-deprecatingly. "I never considered myself guilty. Everything I did was for the Federation and for humanity. I'm turning myself in today simply because the Federation needs me to plead guilty. Only by turning myself in and confessing my guilt can we avoid war and open the door to trade with Tianji Star. I, Zang Shaochen, am willing to sacrifice myself for the Federation."

He paused, raised his head, and gazed forward with a far-reaching gaze. "I'd like to take this opportunity to inform the people of the Federation. As long as we humans don't master the immortal-level and abyssal-level colonial martial arts, we will be in danger of extinction at any time. Those abyssal creatures of Tianji Star will sooner or later attack the Earth Federation. They will definitely destroy our civilization and enslave us."

After Zang Shaochen said this, he turned around and walked into the police station under the protection of many military and police officers.

Against the backdrop of those overhead shots, it appears tragic and desolate, yet resolute and aloof.

Lin Rui watched this scene on TV and couldn't help but laugh coldly. He tapped the table with his fingers, his eyes showing a look of deep thought.
