Chapter 664 -635: After the Battle (Please Subscribe)
Inside Luojing City, Luo Wangshu had already levitated and arrived in front of the palace.
As she parted ways with Lin Rui, she warned with a solemn expression: “Hao, the two things I warned you about earlier, you must take them to heart and be extremely cautious!”
Lin Rui’s eyebrows twitched slightly as he bowed and replied: “Disciple understands and will be doubly cautious.”
The two matters Luo Wangshu warned about both related to the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire’.
Luo Wangshu believes that the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire’ is closely associated with the Great Sun Venerable, thus if Lin Rui can avoid using this Supreme Divine Artifact, he should, and he must also avoid any Soul Consciousness contact with the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire’ to prevent being tainted by it.
However, while he avoids using it, Lin Rui must also quickly gain control over it; otherwise, he will eventually reveal his shortcomings in front of the Senior Divine Envoys and Super Divine Envoys and cannot hide it from the East Abyss.
This sounds contradictory and is indeed very contradictory.
Supreme Divine Artifacts like the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire’ require specific types of martial arts to be harnessed and utilized efficiently.
Yin Qianqiu had cultivated six types of Reach the Sky martial arts related to the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire’ and had advanced them to the levels of True Truth and Great Success, only then could he control the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire’ and unleash thirty to forty percent of its divine power.
The problem is, without practicing these Reach the Sky martial arts, Lin Rui can’t cultivate them to the levels of True Truth and Great Success, hence he can’t wield the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire’; if he begins studying these Reach the Sky martial arts, he must utilize the power of the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire’, inevitably increasing his Divine Soul contact with it.
Luo Wangshu’s suggestion is for Lin Rui not to learn those Cultivation Techniques from the Light God Sect, guessing he wouldn’t have the means to learn them either.
It would be best for Lin Rui to try and control the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire’ using his own Bloodline Ability ‘Divine Heart Clarity’ as a foundation, with his Abyss Source Material and Abyss Source Core.
However, Lin Rui has other ideas regarding this matter.
Luo Wangshu doesn’t know that he has a Divine Artifact like the Battle Spirit Ring and has captured ‘King Ming Yin Qianqiu’ as his number four Battle Spirit.
Lin Rui can completely skip the training process by copying Yin Qianqiu’s Reach the Sky Martial Arts directly, thus quickly gaining control over the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire’.
The second thing Luo Wangshu warned about is the Light God Sect; the Light God Sect will definitely go to great lengths to search for the whereabouts of the Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire and track down him, the new King Ming. Lin Rui must carefully consider how to handle this situation.
Looking at the current situation of the Light God Sect, it harbors great risks.
Especially that Invincible Dharma King, Luo Wangshu believes that this Invincible poses a significant threat to Lin Rui and must not be taken lightly.
Lin Rui deeply trusted Luo Wangshu’s judgment.
Just observing this Invincible Dharma King, who dared to defy the regulations of the Light Church to attack King Ming Yin Qianqiu, reveals her ambitious nature; it shows her determination to claim the Sect Hierarch position of the Light God Sect.
If this woman finds out that the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire’ is with him, she definitely won’t give up easily.
Thus Lin Rui felt an even more urgent need to gain control over the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire’!
With only the power of the Sixth Realm currently, trying to unleash the divine might of the ‘Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire’ would come at a high cost.
However, this is still a form of strength, a very powerful strength, which could provide Lin Rui with some self-protection when facing the Invincible Dharma King.
Luo Wangshu looked Lin Rui up and down with a glance, then with a heavy snort, soared into the air and flew towards Divine Scenery Mountain.
Watching her departing figure, Lin Rui couldn’t help but laugh wryly.
His master was obviously still angry about the matter he had honestly confessed earlier, and yet she deeply cared for his situation and safety.
Xianyu Yan, on the other hand, was pensive, Luo Wangshu’s affection for Lin Rui far exceeded her expectations.
She felt that the Master’s feelings towards her disciple seemed somewhat abnormal, but why was that?
Luo Wangshu didn’t seem like the type to go for much younger men.
Unaware of Xianyu Yan’s thoughts, Lin Rui, in high spirits and joy, returned to the National Guardian Marquis Mansion with Ji Xueying, Shangguan Tianyi, and Xianyu Yan among others.
As he arrived at the entrance of his own Marquis Mansion, he saw that it was crowded with over four hundred officials, distinguished individuals, and affluent magnates from various regions gathered outside seeking an audience. Their carriages filled the four streets in front of the mansion door, bustling as noisy as a market.

When Lin Rui levitated down into the courtyard of the Marquis Mansion, the guardian of the National Guardian Marquis Mansion—Lu Hanyuan, also known as Lv Jingwei, approached to welcome him.
“Lord Marquis!” Lu Hanyuan looked curious and somewhat worried: “Has the Divine Envoy returned to the palace? What was her reaction?”
He was aware of Lin Rui’s confrontation with Luo Wangshu and had been anxious about it.
“Master said, listen to my words and observe my deeds,” Lin Rui said with a slight smile, then looked towards the door: “What’s going on outside? Is it about the trade licenses?”
“It’s not just for the licenses; some are also presenting discipleship requests.”
Lu Hanyuan shook his head, his eyes proud as he glanced outside: “Lord Marquis and the Divine Envoy not only retrieved East Continent’s Divine Tablet shard at Wanshi Mountain but also slayed King Ming Yin Qianqiu. This news had spread throughout the Capital by last night; moreover, this morning, news of Lord Marquis being granted the Second Rank Red Priest and the Blood Kuin Magic Cone spread, shaking both the court and the people. Thus, as soon as this morning’s court session ended, many officials rushed here.”
The battle at Wanshi Mountain successfully resolved the greatest crisis and hidden danger for Lin Hao and his disciple Luo Wangshu.
And Lin Hao was not only granted the highly symbolic Magic Artifact ‘Blood Kuin Magic Cone,’ the Divine Palace also did not revoke the military authority previously granted to him.
At this point, anyone with a bit of discernment in the court should realize that Luo Wangshu and ‘Lin Hao,’ the Hidden Crown Prince, had truly solidified their positions and were expected to remain stable for a long time to come.
Thus, the authority to oversee Star Port trade and license issuance will surely remain in the hands of Lin Hao and his disciple, without further changes.
Therefore, not only did many high-ranking officials and prominent merchants gather at the Marquis Mansion today, but also many aspiring young and low-rank officials, intending to become disciples under Lin Hao.
“I see.” Lin Rui nodded: “Please handle this for me. Tell them I have urgent official duties and can’t entertain guests. Accept their written requests, carefully screen them and deal with them later, and remember to treat them courteously; the lower their status, the more respectful we need to be. Oh, and Yi will be back at the mansion soon, have someone prepare a small courtyard for her.”
Speaking of Lin Yi, Lin Rui’s younger sister truly had it tough.
Previously, Lin Yi arrived in the capital under the identity of ‘Divine Law Heavenly Girl’; however, she only stayed near Lin Rui in Luojing City for two days before she was dispatched by the court to investigate nationwide policy on medicine, salt, tea, and silk.
Among these policies, the Emperor and the first and second Divine Envoys also inspected medicine policy cleanup, since it relates to military supplies, stirring turmoil in Great Song’s officialdom and causing conflicts to erupt.
However, the complexities involved in silk, salt, and tea policies were no less significant than those in medicine, grain, and military supplies.
Fortunately, the assistants Lin Rui had assigned to Lin Yi were competent, and the scholars nationwide revered the ‘Divine Law Heavenly Girl’ greatly, daring not to act rashly. Lin Yi’s inspections after leaving the capital went smoothly, uncovering embezzlements amounting to 34.3 million mo-fins in lost silver, plus twenty-three cases of corruption, bribery, and fraud, which have now been reported to the court.
However, Lin Yi’s current power was merely enough to deal with superficial issues for Great Song, as she dared not and lacked the power to delve deep into major problems.
Additionally, Lin Yi herself was growing increasingly impatient. If not for her daily quantum communications with her brother providing reassurance, she would have rebelled and quit long ago.
This time, it was Lin Rui who actively summoned Lin Yi back to the capital. He had acquired the Holy Fire Tribulation Thunder, which should further cleanse the contamination within his sister’s Divine Soul and Abyss Source Material.
What Lin Rui did not know was that, just as he hurriedly entered the Marquis Mansion’s underground lead room, Qi Tianquan’s Alien form, also known as the Medicine God Sect’s Third Elder ‘Ask the Good Doctor,’ was slightly frowning and appeared troubled as he looked at the entrance of the Marquis Mansion.
He then posted in the ‘Longevity Association’s License Group’: I sensed Lin Hao went directly into the inner courtyard, looks like no chance today.
Qi Tianquan initially wanted to use the term ‘upstart,’ but later feared being betrayed by the group’s members.
If someone screenshots his message to Lin Hao, he might fail to secure a trade license.
Such disgusting acts are possible from this group of people in the Longevity Association.
Qi Tianquan: This Hidden Crown Prince is really arrogant. Today, more than 400 of Great Song’s elite gathered here, including 52 from the Ninth Realm, and yet he didn’t meet with any of them.
Yang Lingxiao: Can this Hidden Crown Prince not be arrogant? After he reported back, even the East Abyss permitted him to continue managing the military forces of eight states around the capital and all the Military Governors nearby. It’s clear what the East Abyss intends.
Chang Zhigao: A genuine Hidden Crown Prince indeed! If the Emperor of Great Song falters and fails to satisfy the East Abyss, he’s likely to replace him.
Yang Lingxiao: He also oversees trade and port opening. His talent is so high; being 6SSS+ at under 20 years old, the East Abyss isn’t afraid of raising a threat.
Calvin Andries: The steward of the Marquis Mansion has come out to collect the written requests. Indeed, no hope today. Those of you who have connections in the Marquis Mansion, please make a ‘squeak’ in the group, pull your brothers up a bit.
Chang Zhigao: Qi, you are the high-profile one in front of the Marquis Mansion, aren’t you from the Medicine God Sect? I heard your sect’s Divine Law Heavenly Girl has a close relationship with the Marquis. Can you help us get through this channel?
Just as Qi Tianquan saw this message, Lv Jingwei walked up to him to collect his written request.
At that moment, Qi Tianquan noticed the steward of the Marquis Mansion looking at him unusually, scrutinizing him up and down.
