Chapter 192

Shi Lang was surprised by the dominating speech used by the little girl in front of him. He cast a gaze at the little girl and found that her eyes were looking firm.

General Rui asked with some hesitation, “Your Excellency, how do you intend to do this?”

Cara replied, “I will be using a computer system to compile a list of corrupt officials. That list will be given to you. You will assign your best soldiers to apprehend these men, and if that is not possible directly kill them and those who try to protect them. Understood?”

General Rui was shocked, this girl was too fierce, he asked, “Your Excellency are you really not worried about how the government will suffer if these people were killed? Although they are corrupt, they all still work to maintain the balance.”

Cara shook her head, “The balance that you think they maintain was in favor of the royal family because they did not want to deal with any mess, this thinking of theirs was the reason that Arcadia is in shambles. As the chief of the military, I do not think I need to tell you about the crime rate in the empire. We are an empire and not a bunch of hooligans. If they wish to excel they need to follow rules, if they think they are above the rules, then make sure they realize their place.”

These words left a bitter aftertaste in the mouth of the general as he tried to digest them. Cara took a deep breath and said, “Do not worry, I will be appointing the best candidates to the jobs of an official immediately. The entirety of the population owns a communicator, they will all receive a link on their communicators. A link to a digital examination which they will have no chance to cheat.”

General Rui kept gazing at the girl in front of him. Shi Lang decided to leave the stuff to Cara since she has already thought so much about it, then he will let it be and only step in when things seem to be a little out of sorts for the girl.

The levitating carriage moved through the scenery and soon it came to a barren piece of land where a pitch-black building stood. Cara said, “Set up mobile camps outside this place and hire a few people to remodel it. Just like the empire, this thing needs to be dealt with as well.”

General Rui nodded and was about to move forward when he asked, “Your excellency, where might we get the money to pay these people?”

Cara gazed at the old man with disdain and said, “The royal vault in the imperial palace was a hoax. The real vault is this, the palace of sin.”

The general was starting to doubt his existence. Cara did not care about him and said, “Arrange a big tent for the Terran Guests.”

Shi Lang shook his head and said, “You do not need to do this for us. Our team carries our own mobile camp units. If you would allow us.”

Cara smiled and said, “What, do you think they will kill you in your sleep?”

Shi Lang shook his head and said, “They will not but we have no idea how to use the Arcadian equipment.”

Cara nodded and said, “Come let me take you on the last tour of the fabled Palace of Sin.”

Shi Lang did not say anything and followed the girl inside the black palace.

…

It has been a week since Cara took charge of the things. Shi Lang had begun to work up his own plan for coming to this planet. The young man had been confined to the space of his camp unit. The past week the job to look after Cara was delegated to Rosa, after all, they were given a promise of by the chief general. They did not have to worry about a lot of things.

On this day, Shi Lang used the spiritual energy to cleanse his body. While on one side he was removing impurities from his body on a cellular level. Cara had also executed her first big move. She had ordered for assassinations and apprehension of the corrupt officials. The process was planned by Rosa and Quinn, some of the hard targets were given to Jenkins and Darcx to take out.

Amelia was standing guard in front of Shi Lang’s tent. No one bothered her either. As he was cleansing the filth inside his body for the second time. Shi Lang recalled of the spirit pill container inside the storage tattoo on his chest.

He focus and the container appeared in his hands with much ease. This container looked like a dragon egg, but it contained three pills. The first pill preserved his soul, the second pill helped him break the shackles, and the third pill was a potent aprodasiac.

With spirit energy Shi Lang had came up with another use of this pill. He stood up after the filth from his body was removed and then he removed it with spirit energy. His physique has improved, but this time it did not grow bulky, but he had become leaner, with his muscles packed with power to leave a crack in the mountains if they were punched.

Shi Lang walked outside the camping unit and searched for Amelia. The girl appeared in front of him in a blink. He said, “Amy, time for you to step in the world of cultivation.”

Amelia still had some restrictions in her mind, she said, “I will follow what ever you say.”

Shi Lang suddenly moved and held her in a princess pose. Then the two people locked eyes and Shi Lang said, “Time to find some place to clean up things.”

Then he vanished from the spot. The speed was something Amelia has never experienced before. The guy was moving faster than even lev vehicles. She wanted to huddle up in his arms but Shi Lang had already manipulated the spiritual energy to condense a slight shield in front of them.

The guy brought her to a derelict mountain sight. When he placed her on the ground, Amelia still had a little tremble in her legs. Shi Lang kissed her lips gently and said, “Amy, the next thing I am going to do will need your complete trust and focus. Do not let your mind be evaded by any random thoughts.”

The girl nodded, and regained her composure. Shi Lang asked her to sit in the lotus position and then he said, “Close your eyes, and calm your mind.”

Amelia began to meditate as he told her. When her breathing became steadier, he said, “Now I will channel the spirit energy inside your body, do not resist and try to remember the senstation.”

Amelia nodded and Shi Lang placed his palm on her back and started to inject the spirit energy inside her body. The speed was very slow, he was tracing her meridians according to his memories of how a women should cultivate.

Amelia felt a warm current flowing inside her body, and as the time passed she could tell that her body had began absorbing the heat from the outside to inside as well. Shi Lang did not say anything for a long time, he needed for the girl to memorize the sensation of spiritual energy moving inside her body.

After an hour, he said, “You can now try to increase the pace of the current flowin inside your body.”

Amelia could hear him, and she followed his instructions. The speed was not fast and slowly she became familiar with controlling the current. Shi Lang said, “Now take a gentle sniff, however, do not let this corrode your consciousness, direct the energy inside your body, first to the depth of your bones and then lead it outside to through the pores.”

Amelia did not know why but she had a bad feeling in her gut, still subconsciously she took a gentle sniff and the fragrance in her nose made the spirit energy inside her body agitated. It was as if she inhaled fire, and the flame was burning her blood. The effect was making her crave for something and in just five minutes, her body started to shiver.

Shi Lang said, “Concentrate, focus on re-directing the energy, you can beat me up later. But this is the most crucial part at the moment.”

Amelia recalled his thoughts, and then started to redirect the agitated spirit energy deep inside her bones and she felt as if the whole body was going to melt and turn to ashes. She was a soldier and the mentality was tempered a lot.

She control her urges and focused again, after ten minutes, she pushed the energy out to the pores. She felt as if she was bleeding from every pore in her body yet the feeling was followed by a soothing chill.

Shi Lang watched the girl sit on the ground covered with black slimy stuff, but he had never thought of her looking anymore cleaner and beautiful.
