934 - Who is Tang Le in the end?

TL: GoldenLung

....

Yu Muchen walked quickly and arrived in front of General Bai Ling, stood at attention, and saluted him, "Teacher."

General Bai Ling smiled slightly, patted his shoulder and said, "No need to be polite among our own people." While speaking, he had already walked past Yu Muchen and approached Elder Yi, respectfully saying, "Hello, Elder Yi. It's been many years since we last met."

Elder Yi smiled slightly and replied, "Yes, indeed! You have been away from our mother planet for many years. You must have rarely come back in these years."

General Bai Ling let out a light sigh and said, "It's my duty. Hello, Lord Meng, Lord Tang, and Lord Wang. I am honored to have you as guests in the Seventh Fleet."

He greeted all the god-rank powerhouses present with a smile, but he skipped Tang Le, whom he did not recognize. In fact, he did not notice Tang Le's cultivation level.

Yu Muchen had already stood behind him, his lips humming as his voice transmitted to General Bai Ling's ears, causing the General's eyes to flicker slightly before turning towards Mr Le.

"Hello, welcome to the Seventh Fleet," General Bai Ling said, even though Mr Le appeared unfamiliar and didn't seem very old. However, any true god-rank powerhouse was an absolute existence worth paying attention to. The age of a god-rank powerhouse was never something that could be judged by appearances alone.

"Commander, you're too kind. I'm Tang Le. We're only here to rescue people and are very grateful for your support." Tang Le nodded slightly in acknowledgement.

"Okay. When it comes to rescuing people, time is of the essence. Let's go to the command center and discuss the specific details. We'll start right away," said General Bai Ling, who had a decisive and efficient style as a military commander.

Lan Xuanyu stood silently behind Tang Le, still far from being noticed by the military bigwigs.

However, Yu Muchen seemed to intentionally push him to the forefront and took the initiative to introduce him to General Bailin, saying, "Teacher, let me introduce you to Lan Xuanyu, a student from Shrek Academy who brought back important news for the Federation and made a great contribution."

"Oh?" General Bailin only noticed Lan Xuanyu standing behind him and nodded at him. "This young man is impressive and has made a great contribution to the Federation. If it is finally confirmed, this merit is enough to honor you for a lifetime."

"Thank you, General." Lan Xuanyu respectfully bowed to General Bailin. He was grateful to the general for supporting him in rescuing Teacher Nana.

"Please." General Bailin made a gesture of invitation to Teacher Yi. The eyes of the god-rank powerhouses who came together naturally fell on Teacher Yi, who was definitely the leader in terms of cultivation, age, and qualifications.

However, what they never expected was that Elder Yi turned towards the nearby Mister Le and made a gesture of invitation, saying "After you, sir."

In an instant, the atmosphere became strange.

Even someone of the status and position of General Bai Ling couldn't help but slightly open their eyes and contract their pupils.

What was Elder Yi's identity? He was very clear about that. In Shrek Academy, and even in the entire federation, in terms of seniority and qualifications, Elder Yi could be said to be second to none. Yet he actually invited that young man to go first, and what's more important, he used the word "sir" as a form of respect.

This was a form of honorific language. With Elder Yi's status, it was incredible that he would use honorific language towards someone who was a stranger to General Bai Ling.

Don't talk about Bai Ling, the General, and Yu Muchen. Even on the side of Shrek Academy, Wang Tianyu was stunned. He looked at Tang Le with a puzzled expression, and the two Lords of Shrek Academy were also shocked.

Tang Le himself felt a bit inexplicable and could only say, "Please, go ahead."

But Elder Yi shook his head and insisted, "Please, you go ahead."

Tang Le glanced at Lan Xuanyu. Although he was very puzzled, he knew that he couldn't waste any more time here at this time, and rescuing Nana was the most important thing. He said, "Then let's go together." After speaking, he walked side by side with Elder Yi towards the front.

General Bai Ling walked in front, and the other military personnel followed behind. Elder Yi seemed to be walking in parallel with Young Master Le, but those who paid attention would notice that he seemed to intentionally lag half a step behind Young Master Le and did not really want to walk side by side with him.

Wang Tianyu, relatively speaking, had the most contact with Elder Yi in the past. Elder Yi had a calm personality, was approachable in normal times, and did not care much about etiquette. Even when the younger generation joked with him, he was always happy and smiling. What kind of identity did this joyful young man have that could make Elder Yi value etiquette so much?

Everyone boarded the shuttle with a somewhat strange mood. The shuttle was fast, and with Bai Ling as the commander, they had unimpeded passage all the way, and all internal vehicles gave way. They went directly to the command center of the mother ship.

The command center had already prepared a large conference room, and one wall of the room was made up of soul screens. The situation of the star was displayed on them.

Upon entering the command center, they took their seats as hosts and guests. Among the god-rank powerhouses who came this time, Elder Yi took the initiative to sit in the second seat.

Although Tang Le was puzzled in his heart, he did not show humility this time and directly took the first seat. Being humble would mean delaying time, and there was nothing more important than rescuing Nana as soon as possible now.

Therefore, the seating arrangement at the long table changed. The main seat was occupied by General Bai Ling, with military leaders led by Yu Muchen sitting on his left, and Tang Le, Elder Yi, Meng Fei, Wang Tianyu, Tang Miao, Lan Xuanyu, and Bai Xiuxiu sitting respectively on his right. As a student of Shrek Academy, being able to sit at such a formal meeting table was already something to be proud of.

Everyone sat down, and General Bai Ling spoke in a deep voice: "Saving lives is urgent, so I'll get straight to the point. During the process of our arrival earlier, I had already given orders to conduct a life detection scan of this planet. The impact of the sunspots is significant, coupled with the extremely high temperature. Although our life detection instrument has a high power output, it was still greatly affected. After the preliminary scan, no life forms were detected."

Upon hearing this, Lan Xuanyu's heart tightened, and he subconsciously clenched his fists. Bai Xiuxiu also grabbed his wrist.

General Bai Ling continued, "But star exploration is always a difficult problem. After all, the unstable temperature and ultra-high temperature inside the stars make it impossible for us to explore deeply. From what we can see now, this yellow giant star is relatively stable, without too many eruptions, which is a good situation and favorable for further exploration. The star probe is ready and can depart at any time. The gravity chain can ensure that the probe can be retrieved within a range of 10,000 meters from the surface of the star. However, the prerequisite is that this yellow giant star does not have further eruptions from sunspots."

"For this rescue mission, I believe safety comes first. With six people going together, it is enough to support the stability of the star probe for a certain period of time. However, all of you are pillars of the federation and cannot afford any mistakes. Therefore, the star probe can only approach within a range of 5,000 meters from the surface of the star. It cannot continue to explore deeper. The gravity chain will control this, and I hope you all understand."

The group of god-rank powerhouses nodded one after another. Under normal circumstances, the star detector was not allowed to enter within a range of ten thousand meters from the surface of a star, otherwise there would be a risk of destruction. However, with the protection of six god-rank powerhouses, entering within five thousand meters was not a big problem, but it was still clearly risky. Five thousand meters was already the maximum distance that General Bai Ling could approve of.

"Therefore, if you discover anything at a distance of five thousand meters from the surface of the star and need to rescue someone, you will have to leave the protection of the detector and go there in person. This will be very dangerous and the risk will be enormous. Have you all decided who will take action?"

"I will," Tang Le said without hesitation.
