Well, you see, the term "believed in" can have several meanings. "Believed in" as in worshipped is different from "believing in" as in having a conviction that he is telling the truth, or able to do a specific thing, both of which seem more likely in this context.
"The beginning" is even more context-dependent. It could mean the beginning of the universe, the beginning of their association, or the beginning of this incident.
Frankly, in context, that sentence most likely means that Superman believed Rao was honest and beneficial from the moment he showed up, not that Superman worshipped him from the day he was born.
