“I found it—you’d never guess their branch’s location; it’s hidden inside a coffin shop at the southern city gate, and it’s an old brand that’s been in business for 50 years.”
Wang Sen snickered, “Don’t worry, I disguised myself during my visit, and I even added twenty centimeters to my height. I was very careful the whole time, ensuring that my identity would not be exposed. In total, eight hundred taels of demon silver were exchanged for 800,000 federal dollars, minus taxes I received 720,000, which has already been distributed into our two accounts using a three-seven split.”
Wang Sen was very confident in his makeup skills and anti-tracking abilities.
Although it was just an elective course at Alien Body College, Wang Sen had achieved an ‘A’ grade across the board.
He then said regretfully, “What a pity, we could have earned an extra 200,000 if we had sold to those companies and institutions.”
Lin Rui remained unconvinced.
...
Selling demon silver as an alien body walker was somewhat like selling game currency in an online game.
Although selling to companies and institutions earned more, the transactions were also more troublesome and had no guarantees.
First, they had to contact the buyer online, agree on a price, and then meet up to hand over the silver. The whole process was fraught with tremendous risks.
Encountering some unscrupulous companies could even lead to murder and robbery, or their alien body identities being sold out to others, even to the officials of Tianji Star.
Unlike the Alien Body Management Bureau, although the prices were rather exorbitant, they were reliable and swift.
The Alien Body Management Bureau had very strict management and confidentiality measures internally. Even if a branch was exposed, it rarely implicated the alien body walkers within its jurisdiction. In six hundred years, they had never leaked any alien body walker’s information.
Fang Ranran had mentioned that if they had any earnings, they could sell to the Tianlan Group, but such a small business of a few hundred thousand federal dollars was probably not appealing to them, and contacting them was a hassle too.

Thinking of the money already transferred into his account, Lin Rui couldn’t help but smile.
The eight hundred taels of demon silver Wang Sen had exchanged were the result of their continuous hard work over three days.
The two had slain seven demons in seven days, and including their gains at Zhao Yuanwai’s house, they had acquired a total of eleven hundred taels of demon silver.
They kept three hundred taels and exchanged the rest for money.
70% of 720,000 is 504,000. Lin Rui already had plans for the money required for the ‘Divine Thunder Sunflame’ meridian edition and his Dantian.
Lin Rui thought to himself that being an alien body walker indeed made good money; it was truly the best way for federal commoners to obtain wealth and climb up in class.
Before Lin Rui and his companion’s arrival, they had never imagined amassing a fortune of 800,000 federal dollars in just three days, several times more than their own salaries.
However, thinking back to the fierce battle at Zhao Yuanwai’s house three days ago, Lin Rui realized that this money was earned with their lives.
A demonic cultivator at the third realm, equal in strength to a captain in Mass Armor, was only worth 200,000 federal dollars after all.
The two were certainly exceptions among their peers.
Nowadays, everyone in this Government Office knew of the deputy arrest officer Lin’s reputation.
Three days ago, the County Magistrate promoted him as deputy arrest officer, responsible for the security of Hanhua Alley and the surrounding seven streets. Many people wanted to see Lin Rui make a fool of himself at that time.
However, just half a day after taking office, he consecutively slain three demons, and later was ambushed at the home of Mr. Zhao, surrounded by three third-realm demonic cultivators.
The outcome surprised everyone, as Lin Rui, together with Wang Sen, reversed the situation by killing all of those third-realm demonic cultivators and also slew a second-realm cat demon.
That day, when Lin Rui returned from Mr. Zhao’s home, the incident shocked everyone in the Government Official’s office and then stirred the whole city.
Everyone in Silver Moon County knew that the Government Office now had another fearsome figure not to be provoked.
The County Magistrate recognized his merits that same night, officially appointing Lin Rui as the deputy arrest officer and promoting his staff member Wang Sen to a black belt.
Lin Rui achieved an increase of two ranks in just one day, and Wang Sen was promoted to black belt, but now there was not a single person in the office who doubted them.
Over the next two days, Lin Rui not only continuously killed three third-realm and one second-realm demons, but his actions also resulted in two continuous days without any homicides near Hanhua Alley.
This made everyone who had doubted Lin Rui’s achievements at the Zhao residence stop their suspicions altogether.
When the two arrived at the checkpoint called ‘Gather Classics,’ there were already many people waiting, but the crowd parted ways spontaneously upon seeing their arrival, clearing a path for them.
It was at this moment that a roaring sound like thunder came from the north, “Scram! All of you, scram!”
Someone else bellowed, “Anyone who dares to block our way, dies!”
Lin Rui was momentarily startled, the noise coming from the direction of the prison.
Following the sound, he saw three robust figures bursting out from a corridor in the northeast.
The trio’s aura was fierce like wolves, using the iron chains locked on their hands as weapons.
These iron chains were tremendously powerful, smashing nearby walls and wooden pillars to debris, and forcing back several prison guards and Government Officials trying to block them.
“They are third-realm Martial Cultivators, and two of them show signs of demonic possession.”
Wang Sen looked surprised and whispered to Lin Rui, “It’s strange, why don’t they have stabilization nails in them?”
Lin Rui’s eyes narrowed slightly. After scanning the surroundings, he realized that none of the deputy arrest officers or arrest officers were present.
He immediately realized that today’s scenario was aimed at them.
Lin Rui smiled coldly, confidently walked to the doorway, and blocked the must-pass path of the three men.
As the trio rushed forward, they were about thirty to forty meters away and suddenly widened their pupils in surprise and bloodthirsty fierceness.
Although one was a deputy arrest officer and the other a black belt, they were only just over eighteen years old; how much cultivation could they have?
These young lads, how dare they block their path?
