Earth Federation headquarters building, Fang Xianzheng walked out of Conference Room One with a splitting headache.
Around him were a group of political leaders, all with furrowed brows and grave expressions, full of concern.
Fang Xianzheng walked alongside his political ally and fellow member of the People’s Party, the vice-chair of the ‘National Welfare Committee,’ Caroline Bellucci.
This woman was not only a seasoned Congressman but also the co-chair of the People’s Party’s National Committee, her position within the People’s Party second only to the chair of the party.
“Old Fang, about your daughter, you might need to be more concerned.”
Caroline Bellucci spoke gravely, “Based on our polls and supercomputer analysis, the Bright Front’s election prospects look good. This time, their campaign could land six to seven Congressional seats, and over 150 local council seats. If the election becomes tense, our People’s Party and the National Society Alliance might have to court the Bright Front to form a coalition government.”
...
This meant they would have to relinquish one or two critically important positions to gain the support of the Bright Front.
“If possible, I hope you can personally consolidate the Bright Front soon. Their electoral district overlaps significantly with ours, which is a severe drain on our votes. Considering she is your daughter, this is practically fratricide.”
Fang Xianzheng thought to himself that she was seriously underestimating her.
According to internal intelligence analysis from the Sky Blue Group, it’s highly likely that the Bright Front could end up electing about 10 to 12 members.
This doesn’t even take into account the changes brought about by Lin Rui—once he tops the University Martial Arts League, the enormous popularity he’s gradually gained from his martial arts teaching videos and high-quality skincare products would also bring certain votes to the Bright Front.
Moreover, the ‘Light King Sect’ led covertly by Lin Rui is expanding. Fang Xianzheng received accurate intel that about three days ago, the ‘Light King Sect’ executed a decapitation strike and consolidated Heart of Light Number 6.
—The Sixth Base City has the highest number of followers of the Bright Holy Sect, with 42 million faithful, 6 million of whom have legitimate citizenship.
In the Seventh Base City, under the astounding financial support from Lin Rui, the number of citizens who are followers of the ‘Light King Sect’ has reached 7 million.
Meanwhile, the Bright Holy Sect and the Light King Sect have begun fierce conflicts, with a clandestine sect war already underway. However, from the current analysis, this does not affect the election prospects of the Bright Front.
All this top-secret intelligence had been encrypted at the highest level by order of Fang Xianzheng, even his closest confidants were not privy to it.
Fang Xianzheng thought his son really resembled him, although he was somewhat soft-hearted and at times overly lenient, he possessed excellent affability and coordination skills, strong situational adaptability, and was very cautious and pragmatic.
“Actually, I believe the key to this matter is to come up with a satisfactory proposal for the Eastern Abyss.”
Just then, Fang Xianzheng suddenly let out a light exclamation: “Our President has great courage, not inferior to that person from 200 years ago.”
He had received an email stating that the President had decided to form a delegation and personally go to Luojing, Great Song, to negotiate with Great Song and the Eastern Abyss.
Fang Xianzheng and Caroline Bellucci exchanged glances, each seeing the gravity in the other’s eyes.
The President’s move, successful or not, would be a strong boost for the formerly dominant party in a low-electorate setting, the National Society Alliance.

Lin Rui’s convoy had already arrived at the entrance of Rui Fang’s Armored Biological Research Institute.
Not only had the convoys of Linghu Mingde and Fang Ranran arrived, but Fei Yunlai, Wang Tianwu, Gong Hengdao, and others had also arrived.
Sima Lin and Xie Qing also came to the entrance of the institute to welcome the arrival of these three major investors, Lin Rui, Fang Ranran, and Linghu Mingde.
Fei Yunlai and others were actually full of doubt, curiosity, and anticipation. Although they didn’t know what the major research breakthrough Lin Rui spoke of, they knew their boss, despite being a bit crazy and adept at deception, usually kept his promises.
Just as they entered the laboratory, Xue Lingxue first handed each of them a confidentiality agreement.
—They even used Level 8 Dragon Skin Paper, utilizing the powers of two Divine Venerables to ensure the reliability of the contract.
Fei Yunlai was even more surprised and thought: does the boss really need to be so formal? After all, we are his people in life and death, isn’t it unnecessary?
He carefully reviewed the contract terms to make sure he wasn’t being tricked before signing his name.
As soon as Fei Yunlai handed the contract back to Xue Lingxue, he received an electronic document that was to be destroyed after reading.
Wang Tianwu and the others did the same, starting to read this electronic document.
Soon after, Wang Tianwu’s eyes bulged: “How is that possible?”
His expression mixed with surprise and disbelief. “How could such armament exist?”
Lu Hanyuan clenched his fists tightly, his body slightly trembling; there was indeed something in this laboratory that could take him even further!
