Chapter 129 129:Federation Council
As Meng Yun finished her examination, the weight of realization settled heavily on Irina's shoulders. The transformation within her was palpable, an eerie testament to the power coursing through her meridians.
But amidst the astonishment, there lingered a deep-seated concern, a flicker of fear dancing in Meng Yun's eyes as she marveled at the extent of the change.
Like Yang qi in males, yin qi in females was one of the potent sources of power similar to the female hormone but if not utilized properly the side effects would be quite harsh.
The Yin Gu, though increased the Yin concentration didn't allow proper utilization and caused many side effects but if channeled correctly, it nourished skin, and increased female vitality and vigor.
Meng Yun amidst the examination gasped seeing Irina's gaze
Her gaze, sharp and scrutinizing, betrayed a wariness born of uncertainty.
Irina's mind darted towards Meng Yun's words about her disciple taking charge. She felt a bad hunch about that.
Could she trust Meng Yun's disciple with such a crucial task? Doubt gnawed at her, casting shadows over her confidence. She needed answers, and reassurance, but her skepticism remained steadfast.
With a dismissive gesture, Irina brushed aside Meng Yun's defense of her disciple.
"You didn't find anything substantial, did you?"
The air grew tense as silence settled between them, punctuated only by Irina's pointed inquiry. Her arms folded protectively across her chest, a barrier against the uncertainty that threatened to engulf her.
"Meng Yun, your disciple?" Irina gave her a skeptical glance and asked, "Can he even do the task well?"
"What's up with that gaze? He can handle such an easy task," Meng Yun replied, frowning at Irina's odd gaze.
"I don't feel he is trustworthy enough. It had been many days so tell me what he found out," Irina muttered, folding her arms across her chest.
Meng Yun faltered under the weight of Irina's scrutiny, her words faltering as she struggled to explain the lack of progress. The realization dawned slowly, a bitter pill to swallow. Irina's disappointment hung heavy in the air, a tangible presence that soured the atmosphere.
"That…" Meng Yun's speech faltered as she realized her disciple hadn't found anything substantial.
"Ha… Never mind," Irina shrugged her shoulders with a sigh. "I will now investigate this thing myself." Her eyes burnt with a strong resolution. She needed to find that bastard who manipulated her memory and toyed with her. Who knows if they dared to harm her and her son once they reconciled?
"I also need to meet with Gwen and my family to clear things up before it's too late."
"Lady Irina," Meng Yun's voice snapped her out of her thoughts.
"Yes?"
"Lady Irina, you can't do that because you need to move now. Things have been troublesome."
Irina's brows furrowed hearing this.
"What happened?"
Meng Yun then pulled out a letter with an official stamp of the Federation on top of it.
"You have got an urgent letter from the Federation and your father asked you to contact him once you wake up. And all of this because a dimensional Gate had opened up out of nowhere."
The official seal of the Federation bore witness to the gravity of the situation, casting a shadow over Irina's resolve.
Her father's summons sparked a flurry of emotions within her concern, apprehension, and a flicker of hope. The revelation of a dimensional Gate only added fuel to the fire of urgency.
Irina reading the letter bit her lips in frustration seeing the order to lead troops.
'Damn! Why is this happening to me? Every time I prepare to meet my son why does annoying things pop.'
'Is this a curse or my punishment?'
Irina grumbled in frustration but little did she know that this sudden turn of events would turn out to be a blessing in the future.
.....
Somewhere on Earth, a futuristic meeting space adorned with sleek monitors, each displaying vivid visuals and connecting people seamlessly through digital interfaces.
The atmosphere is charged with technological sophistication as old faces engage in discussions, their voices transmitted through crystal-clear audio channels, as they glance at one another trying to understand the agenda of the sudden Federation Meeting.
Each one sitting there was someone with high authority and a pillar of their respective country.
Generally, the meeting takes place like an assembly but in case of an abrupt emergency, they meet virtually through video conference and today everyone could feel that things might be more grave than seen.
"So, she is the one who managed to sneak past."An old somber voice echoed in the place.
Beyond the monitor, there was a person whose face was covered in darkness.
"Yes, Mr.President, "Herman murmured, giving a brief nod as he stood aside the cage that contained Seraphina.
Many pairs of eyes focused on her curiously wanting to see her reaction but to their dismay, she wasn't affected in any sense rather she sat in the middle of the cage, boldly sharpening her claws.
Noticing everyone's gaze, she looked up with a foxy smile.
"Stop looking at me as if I am an animal in the park."
She then raised her chin to meet the gazes
"What? Have none of you seen your wife shaping her nails into old farts?"
"We have but we aren't as old as you ancient Grandma."Bennet, one of the Grand Marshals in charge of the Federation army spoke with a threatening smile.
"Hmmm!"Seraphina snorted and went back to her work, ignoring the old coots while a war of discussion started ringing around.
"What are we going to do now?"
"Before that, how did she sneak in?"
"Why are you so hung upon that? Leave that for later."
"Son of a bitch, it's a matter of National security. Since she had managed to bypass our round of defense, why can't the other? We need to address this issue first."
"She might have killed her way."
"Shut up you naive fool."
Things started becoming a world as the members started discussing crazily.
Each of them was a Martial Emperor but once they engaged in talks none of them held back anymore and went wild.
While for many it is a severe headache, for few it's a way to take a break away from their rigid characters and engage in talks with someone familiar with their age.
"Enough!"
A loud voice echoed that passed everything.
Except for the sound of breathing, all other noises ceased to exist.
Everyone's attention is drawn to the biggest screen among them where a man's suit and, the upper part is covered in darkness sitting in an imposing striking manner.
"Seraphina, is this a prank or are you here to hide from your sister's eyes?"
Seraphina's expression changed the moment she heard this.
"Since Vampire Crown Prince had gone to slumber, you and your sister tried to fight back for the throne in his absence and you are the one who lost."
"Pesky humans, your intel network has spread quite wide, isn't it?"Seraphina glared with venom.
"But, I wonder..."
"Is this the truth?"
The various members erupted in loud murmurs.
"What?"
"Is this another of your lame jokes, President?"
"Seraphina!"The President called her name loudly.
"Keep your tricks for another place not here. There is no way your sister would fight to the death and force you to flee for your life, making you injured to the point that you have fallen to this level."
He then smacked his lips muttering nonchalantly."So, I guess you Vampires are hatching a grand plan, a very grand plan."
