This was Luo Qianjun’s biggest bargaining chip for helping the Shen Family deal with Ye Xiu. No matter the final outco, he had already secured an invincible position.
"Do you think acquiring Black Water Nation citizenship is sothing to be proud of?" Ye Xiu asked.
"Of course!" Luo Qianjun shrugged. "This citizenship gives an air of superiority while in Xuanse. Even if I weren’t an instructor for the Special Combat Team, the citizenship alone would earn greater respect when traveling around the world."
"I despise trash like you who look down on their holand and fawn over foreign powers," Ye Xiu said coldly.
"That’s just your envy and jealousy talking," Luo Qianjun mocked.
"Ye Xiu, last night, Qianjun submitted immigration applications for all of us in the Shen family, and the Black Water Nation has already approved them," Shen Wanqiu said with a smile. "Although there’s still so paperwork to process, we are now considered citizens of the Black Water Nation."
"Ye Xiu, I’m sorry, but you probably won’t be able to get your revenge in this lifeti," Shen Songshan said quite smugly. "Because you cannot bear the responsibility of killing citizens of the Black Water Nation."
"Ye Xiu, you are the most foolish person I have ever seen. If I were you, I would have killed everyone in the Shen Family already. But you just had to play gas with them, and now you can’t play anymore, can you?" Shen Qilin taunted.
Ye Xiu was amused by the stupidity of these four. "Take out your phones," he said. "In a mont, you’ll receive so explosive news."
After speaking, he took out his own phone and sent a text ssage.
"What news?" Shen Wanqiu asked teasingly. "A ssage wishing you’d die of anger?"
Ye Xiu just smiled without saying a word.
"Ye Xiu is so pissed he has no other recourse. He’s probably just saying sothing la to save face," Luo Qianjun said with a laugh.
"Oh, once the procedures are complete, our whole family is going to the Black Water Nation to enjoy the good life," Shen Songshan said, leaning back comfortably on the sofa.
"With Qianjun protecting us as an instructor for the Special Combat Team, our life in the Black Water Nation will be even more comfortable than it was here," Shen Qilin said with a look of longing.
Just then, Luo Qianjun’s phone suddenly rang. Seeing the caller ID, he laughed and said to Ye Xiu, "It’s a top official from the Ministry of Military Affairs of the Black Water Nation. Now you can imagine how much influence I have there, right?"
"Now, listen to the official’s wonderful voice. This will be the most beautiful sound you’ll ever hear in your life." As he spoke, he turned on the speakerphone.
Seeing this, Shen Songshan, Shen Qilin, and Shen Wanqiu began to laugh. They hadn’t expected Luo Qianjun to be doing so well in the Ministry of Military Affairs that the head himself would call personally. But the better Luo Qianjun did, the more comfortable the Shen Family’s life would be after immigrating.
"General, hello. Is there sothing you need?" Luo Qianjun asked loudly in a foreign language.
A stern voice ca through the speaker. "Luo Qianjun, after a discussion at the Ministry of Military Affairs, it has been decided to strip you of your position as an instructor for the Special Combat Team and discharge you from military service. Furthermore, we are revoking the Black Water Nation citizenship of you and all your family mbers. You are to be expelled from the country and are forbidden from ever setting foot on Black Water Nation soil for life."
The smug expression on Luo Qianjun’s face petrified.
The beaming smiles on the faces of Shen Songshan, Shen Qilin, and Shen Wanqiu stiffened.
Qin Qing glanced at Ye Xiu, secretly amazed. She had now seen just how formidable Huang Quan was. With just one text ssage, a top official from the Ministry of Military Affairs had personally called to ruin Luo Qianjun.
"Gen-General, you... you can’t be serious..." Luo Qianjun stamred in a panic.
The voice on the other end replied, "I am not joking. If you don’t believe , you can try coming back. The mont you set foot on Black Water Nation territory, you will be t with the death penalty."
With that, the call ended.
Luo Qianjun was stunned. His prized Black Water Nation citizenship and his position as an instructor for the Special Combat Team were gone? Had he and everyone in the Luo Family just beco stateless, undocunted people?
"What... what exactly did you do?" Luo Qianjun asked Ye Xiu in shock.
Shen Songshan, Shen Qilin, and Shen Wanqiu also stared at Ye Xiu in disbelief. They could hardly imagine that Ye Xiu possessed such power. With a single text ssage, he had turned a citizen of the Black Water Nation, an instructor for the Special Combat Team, and his entire family into stateless individuals. Even the King of a nation couldn’t have such an ability, could they?
"What I did isn’t important. What’s important is that if I kill you now, it seems nobody will care, right?" Ye Xiu asked mockingly.
Luo Qianjun was speechless. Who would care about a stateless person?
"Haha, I just received a text that my immigration has been approved!" Shen Qilin suddenly laughed out loud.
Shen Songshan and Shen Wanqiu were stunned for a mont, then hurriedly checked their phones.
"I received it too!" Shen Wanqiu said excitedly.
" too! From now on, we are no longer citizens of Xuanse, we are Black—" Shen Songshan’s old face flushed with excitent, but before he could finish, another text ssage popped up on his screen. After reading it, he was stupefied. "The Black Water Nation rejected my immigration application?"
Hearing this, Shen Qilin and Shen Wanqiu quickly checked their ssages again. Sure enough, they had also received texts rejecting their immigration applications.
"We... we’ve beco stateless individuals as well?" Shen Wanqiu said, dumbfounded.
Shen Songshan and Shen Qilin were also stunned. Xuanse had just sent them ssages confirming their emigration, aning they were no longer citizens of Xuanse. But now, the Black Water Nation had rejected their immigration applications. Hadn’t they just beco stateless?
"Ye Xiu, what on earth did you do?" Shen Songshan stood up and roared at Ye Xiu.
"It was you! It must have been you! You did this! You’ve made us all stateless!" Shen Wanqiu cried tearfully.
"It’s over," Shen Qilin said in despair. "Without a nationality, we have no right of residence in any country in the world. Our Xuanse Identity Tokens will be invalid. Our bank cards, accounts, stock agreents, fixed assets... everything will be frozen."
"They won’t be frozen," Ye Xiu said smoothly. "Everything belonging to the Shen and Luo families will be transferred to my na. Sigh, my assets have inadvertently surged by a huge amount. It’s so vexing. How am I supposed to spend all this money?"
Qin Qing shot Ye Xiu an exasperated look. "Stop showing off!"
Ye Xiu fell silent.
Luo Qianjun, Shen Songshan, Shen Qilin, and Shen Wanqiu looked half-dead, their faces and eyes completely devoid of life. At this mont, they were even more desperate than Ming Yue and her people; at least they still had a nationality.
But they were stateless.
Where would they go now? Drift on the high seas?
"Luo Qianjun, this is all your fault!" Shen Wanqiu suddenly shrieked as if she’d gone mad, rushing over to punch and kick him. "You jinx! If it weren’t for you, the Shen family wouldn’t have beco stateless! We wouldn’t have lost everything! You’re a scourge! Give back my nationality! Give back my money..."
