Ace Of Terrans

Shi Lang fell from the sky as the lightning dragon behind him vanished. It seemed as if the tribulation has come to an end with a grand failure. Mitsu looked at Amelia's face, but when she saw her calm gaze locked on Shi Lang's face.

Archie Arkham shivered and asked, "Amelia, his heart stopped. What should we do?"

Amelia shook her head and said, "Nothing can be done, and nothing has to be done. He did not fail."

It may sound as if she was out of her mind or in a state of shock with the incident in front of her. Mitsu said, "How is this possible? He was clearly dead a moment ago."

Shi Lang's had started beating at a pace that was completely unable to register. Mitsu wanted to move forward and check Shi Lang's condition but the spiritual pressure emitting from his body had bound the people in one place.

...

After the slash collided with the lightning dragon, Shi Lang fell to the ground. The impact left a shallow pit on the ground. As the spiritual pressure increased, his body was reviving. Mitsu observed the situation and said, "Why does it look like his realm has climbed even further than the bounds of Peak Primal soul realm?"

Amelia smiled and said, "That is why I said that we do not need to do anything. The spirit energy inside his body would heal him. What we all need to do is to wait."

Shi Lang's body was healing faster and faster. The dark clouds in the sky dispersed and a ray of light fell from the sky and covered his body. This light was the blessing of the heavens, for the cultivator passed the tribulation and this light was something that aided the cultivator in recovering from the after-effects of the tribulation.

Amelia smiled when she saw the young man standing up. The impact of the lightning dragon had burnt his body and now he was shedding the burnt skin. His hair fell down revealing a clean scalp. However, instantly new hair appeared on his head, but they were crimson in color.

Shi Lang looked at his physical state and then he took out a pair of clothes from the space ring and walked over to meet Amelia. His aura was nothing like it was before, at this moment, he seemed to be an exalted immortal that has descended from the heavens.

Amelia walked over in front of him and then said with a smile, "Welcome back."

Shi Lang smiled and replied, "It is good to be back."

? Amelia walked closer and then embraced the young man in her arms. She missed him and so did the young man. He said, "It has been a hundred years since I saw you."

Amelia thought he was teasing her, and said, "You changed your hair, I do not like them red."

Shi Lang smiled and said, "Very well, I shall change them. See."

Amelia raised her head and found his red hair turning back to black. With this done, the couple walked over to greet the two ladies. Commander Silence asked, "Lang are you okay?"

Shi Lang nodded and said, "Yes, Commander, thank you for asking."

The four people exchanged a few words and then Amelia decided to go back to the school to pick up Shi Tao. Commander Silence began talking to the young man about what just happened and asked, what was his level of cultivation now. Shi Lang smiled and said, "Would you believe if I said that I can slap an entire city with just one slap?"

Commander Silence asked in a low voice, "I would like to ask you if that slap would be your best attack."

Shi Lang shook his head and replied, "If I decided to go all out, I might end up destroying an entire state, and none of the citizens might survive. I know the reason why you are asking this. I am not the threat that you need to be wary of. In this galaxy, there are many people who can destroy the federation on a whim, and I intend to get into an alliance with those people."

Commander Silence opened her eyes wide and said, "You are joking, right? It is not safe for us to engage in alliances and connections with those people just yet. Our average strength is not enough to put up a defense in case of an attack. What was going on in that mind of yours when you came to this decision?"

Shi Lang smiled and said, "I do not want to enter into the deeper details as you might not understand them, but you can only become stronger when you come in contact with stronger people. The way of martial arts and spiritual cultivation is not without restrains. There are ways to control the people from running rampant."

Commander Silence did not agree with his methods, she asked in a solemn voice, "Tell me, what are these methods that you are so sure of? I am the chairperson of the General Council, and I cannot let you call the shots on just blank words."

Shi Lang nodded and said, "You are correct to be this cautious, but if you do not take any risks, you will never get the rewards that can make you stronger. The method I speak of is called the Oath of Dao. Once the conditions mentioned in this oath are violated, you will get to face something like what I just faced, a heavenly lightning punishment, though, it will not give you any chance to survive.

I intend to have the leaders of both parties enter an oath. This oath will keep things in line and stop both sides from exploiting each other. Another interesting thing that you should know is the connection between both parties."

Commander Silence raised her brows and asked, "What connection can we possibly have with people living at the other end of the galaxy?"

Shi Lang smiled and said, "This planet that you call the federation today, was called the Heavenly Dao Continent when the land mass was not in parts. At that time spiritual cultivation was not unusual to the masses. You should have seen the changes in the world due to exposure to spiritual energy.

During those days, these changes were even more prominent and obvious. Humans used to reside with beasts, that were able to compete with them in terms of strength and knowledge. The people I intend to ally with are the beasts, that were transported to a different planet by an expert in those days. They are the extension of the ancient civilization of the Federation. The only difference is that they still remember their roots and they did not exploit the spirit energy blindly."

Commander Silence was shocked when she heard these things. She could not wrap her mind around these facts. Shi Lang said, "You must have met Crystal, she is the princess of the reigning clan among those people. I guess that fact is enough to tell you what I can do."

Commander Silence was still somewhat unsure and said, "I am still unable to let you go through with this."

Shi Lang did not faze and said, "Two facts that you need to know, every world with spirit energy has its own laws, so their strong people will never be able to come here and rage against us. Second thing, I was not asking."

He imitated such a strong pressure from his body that Commander Silence paled all of a sudden. She did not expect it to be this horrifying. Mitsu said, "Boss, I guess she understands what is going on."

Shi Lang sighed and retracted his pressure and said, "I do not intend to strongarm you. I have served under you, and I do not think you hesitate from taking risks. The fate of the Federation rests on the shoulder of the strong, heaven forbids if your doubts come true, I will personally take action. You have my word."

...

They called for an emergency meeting of the General Council, and Shi Lang participated in it. He did not waste any time and came forward with his proposal. This shocked the people and they could not even react for a bit, but Shi Lang then said, "Take your time, if you have an answer by tomorrow night, I will be appreciative. I know you might want to brood over it as this decision can decide the fate of the entire civilization, however, too much thinking makes us hesitate a lot too."

The general council understood his logic, and they agreed to give him an answer by the night later. Commander Silence did not hide anything and told them the horror that Shi Lang had become. The impact of this news was something too much for them to comprehend. Even if they were at the top of the federation, they could not take out an entire state with one blow. ƒ𝐫𝒆𝐞w𝗲𝚋𝗻૦𝘷e𝙡.c𝑜𝙢

While the meeting continued, Shi Lang made his way to the federal star academy.
