Chapter 198

Shi Lang dropped Amelia at her residence, the girl wanted to spend some time with her mother. He was about to take his parents to their apartment when Charlotte said, “Major Lang, did you not check your communicator?”

Shi Lang looked at her ambiguous smile and asked, “What is it, Ma’am?”

Charlotte smiled and said, “Won’t you know after checking up the communicator?”

Shi Lang nodded and checked his communicator, there were a lot of messages in the inbox from congratulations to some cursing from his old classmates. Finally, he found a mail that was highlighted in red color.

He accessed the mail and found that it was an allotment letter, a villa in the military officer’s residential complex was allocated to him. The letter made Shi Lang shocked, and he asked, “Mom, what is going on, don’t they only allow people of general rank to live here?”

The complex was the same one as Charlotte’s, and it housed only high-ranking military officers. Charlotte said, “The merit you earned after sharing the methods of cultivation is the reason you are given the place. Also, you will be promoted to the position of Federal Envoy, which is equal to that of a general. You meet the conditions to live here.”

Shi Lang was shocked, he could understand that this news has credibility since it was spoken by a fleet general. However, something did not sit well with him. His parents, however, were excited to hear that their son will be promoted.

Shi Lang asked, “Who made the decision to make me an envoy?”

Charlotte was surprised, she asked, “It was Edwards, I had told the general council that you will not agree, but the first general has the right to veto us all.”

Shi Lang frowned, he could sense why this was happening and that gave birth to anger in his heart. He said, “Mom, Dad, you all stay here with mom and Amy, I need to visit the cabinet office. Something came up.”

The people could sense a chill in his voice, and they did not say much, after asking him to come back sooner and got down from the vehicle. Charlotte was shocked, she asked, “Lang, what are you going to do.”

Shi Lang cast her a gaze and without saying anything, he put the vehicle in reverse gear, made a sharp turn, and drove away. Charlotte was shocked, she could tell something dangerous might happen.

She picked up the communicator and wanted to call it in, but she did not know what to say to the operator. She heard Amelia’s voice, “Are you worried about him or the people on the other side.”

Charlotte asked, “Him, obviously.”

Amelia shook her head and asked, “Did you not see the report from battle last year?”

Charlotte nodded and Amelia said, “I give you my word, if they pissed him off, he will destroy the entire parliament and come out with their heads, and still be unharmed.”

Charlotte was shocked, she asked, “What do you mean?”

Amelia looked around and said, “Let us go inside first.”

Then she led her in-laws, who were worried and confused about the situation inside their house.

…

Shi Lang drove the vehicle at a high speed, but since he was in a military vehicle, no one raised an objection to him. He connected his communicator and dialed Jenkins, the call connected and the other side asked, “Yo, Captain missing me so soon? Amelia does not love you anymore.”

Shi Lang did not reply to his tease and asked, “Did they offer you the position on the front lines?”

Jenkins asked, “Yes, why?”

Shi Lang did not answer and connected the rest of the team except Amelia, the question was the same, and so was the answer. The team sensed something wrong and Rosa asked, “What do you want to do?”

Shi Lang replied, “I want an explanation.”

He emphasized every single word. Jenkins replied, “I will meet you at the gates of the parliament, do not head off on your own.”

The others did the same and disconnected the call. Then they all took off from their place heading to the parliament. The parliament was not made inside the city but around the space elevator. Shi Lang’s speed of driving was faster than the rest, if he wanted to hurry things even more than he could have run on foot, but he wanted to preserve energy.

He was going to face the highest and strongest people in the federation, he did not want to rely on the thing spiritual energy in the air. It took him six hours to get to the destination. He parked his vehicle and after the security check, he moved to the office of the General Council. Since the military decision was taken by those people then he will confront them directly.

He had just come in front of the reception counter and was about to ask something when Jenkins showed up on the side. Shi Lang gazed at him indifferently and asked, “Is your father here?”

Jenkins nodded and said, “Yes, but at the moment, a council meeting is ongoing, we cannot go in.”

Shi Lang asked, “Where is this meeting going on?”

Jenkins was surprised and so was the rest of the team that has just caught up with them. Rosa asked, “What do you intend to do?”

“Convince them.”, as he said that his body started to radiate a strong intent to battle. He said, “Do not try to reason with me, you all know the reasons they did this. I will not settle for this. I did not put my life on the line for some old foggy-brained pricks to decide my future.”

Jenkins said, “Lang, my father, I know that he is in the gray but can you not find another way to do this?”

Shi Lang cast a gaze on his friend and said, “I promise, I will not kill anyone with the same colors, but if they think they can ride over my head, then I will break their backs for sure.”

This was a warning, not only to people who stand in his way but also to those in front of him. He turned his head and used the spirit sense to find where the generals were gathered. At this moment, none of the people were stronger than his team. They were all just at the beginning phase of cultivation, they were nothing compared to Shi Lang.

The young man did not care about anyone and walked to the council office on the third floor of the building, this place had stairs and no elevators, to make preserve the history.

The soldiers at the entrance of the third floor came forward to stop the team when Shi Lang said, “Corporal, you will face an inquiry at any cost, however, whether you want to do that after a trip to ICCU of the infirmary or without that, it is your choice.”

The soldier could tell that in front of him stood the god of death. He subconsciously took a few steps back. Shi Lang walked past the guy with his team behind him and came to stand in front of a sealed door.

This door would be sealed every time a meeting begins, and unsealed later. Quinn said, “We need a code.”

Shi Lang shook his head and kicked the door.

…

The old generals were discussing the matters of cultivation and one of them asked, “We all decided to keep that kid at home to learn more from him, how will he react?”

Someone said, “It is his honor to teach us. We are giving him a promotion and what more can he desire?”

Everyone expressed their opinion and turned to look at General Edwards, who said, “I want to see how he will react.”

As soon as his words dropped, they heard a BANG, and by the time they turned around, they found that the door of the meeting room has been taken down. It was lying flat on the ground. The generals all stood up and an old general yelled, “HOW DARE YOU?”

However, the next moment, a dagger was placed at his nape, the dagger was held by Darcx, he said, “Do not talk so loudly, we could hear you all from the staircase. You want to learn cultivation from us, right? The first rule, old foggies must keep quiet. Until they are asked to speak.”

General Edwards was shocked, he expected a reaction from Shi Lang but not that it would be so big. When he found that one of his cronies has been subdued already, before they could even figure out what to do, he became cautious.

Shi Lang walked forward and asked, “Why was I voted to be an ambassador?”

His question was simple, General Edwards said, “Your skills can help the entire Federal Army, why not teach them?”

Shi Lang nodded and asked, “Just like the skills of Principal Stevenson? Right, General Edwards?”

This simple sentence gave people an inkling of what was happening here.
