The Ministry of Justice was in charge of law and law enforcement. The bandit group that Tensei and the others captured had committed many crimes and were wanted in the Fire Divine Region. Now that they were captured by Tensei and the others, they were naturally going to be sent to the Ministry of Justice.
Outside the heavily guarded entrance of the Ministry of Justice, more than a dozen guards with powerful auras stood there. When they saw Tensei and the others walking over, they all revealed suspicious expressions.
They could tell that Tensei and the others were soldiers from the Prime Minister's Residence.
"Everyone, why are you not guarding the Prime Minister's Residence and coming to my Ministry of Justice?" The leader of the guards took a few steps forward and cupped his hands slightly.
Tensei returned the salute. "I heard that a few years ago, the Prime Minister had already put a bounty on the Bailong Bandit Group. I wonder what the price is now?"
"Haha, could it be that the Prime Minister's Residence wants to earn some extra money?" The guards immediately burst into laughter. Obviously, they did not take Tensei and the others seriously.
The leader of the guards also laughed and said, "The bounty for destroying the Bailong Bandit Group is five million Divine Stones. In addition, capturing one person alive is ten thousand Divine Stones. Capturing the two leaders alive is five million Divine Stones. Brother, don't tell me you really want to go to the Bailong Mountain? "
"Haha …" The guards held their bellies and laughed again. They knew very well that although the bandits of the Bailong Mountain were not very strong, they came and went like ghosts. Even the Fire Emperor's Army and the Imperial Guards could not do anything to them. These nineteen people in front of them actually dared to have designs on the Bailong Mountain?
Tensei ignored the crowd's laughter and secretly calculated. In this way, the bounty would be around twenty-five million Divine Stones. Although it was not high, in the Sealed Divine Region, it was definitely a large amount of wealth. After all, the resources here were very scarce.
"It's not that I want to go, but that I'm already back!" Tensei said with a smile.
The smiles on everyone's faces froze. Before they could say anything, a group of people walked quickly from the street in the distance. The leader was a middle-aged man with strong facial features.
"Greetings, Minister!" Everyone hurriedly saluted.
The middle-aged man's expression was cold. He glanced at Tensei and said in a dignified voice, "From what you said, you destroyed the Bailong Mountain?"
This was the Minister of Justice? Tensei sized up the middle-aged man. In the Fire God Dominion, the Minister of Justice was a lower first rank official. Although he was not as high as the Prime Minister, the Minister of Justice was in charge of laws and decrees. His status was also extremely high!
He didn't expect to meet the Minister of Justice, who happened to be returning to the Ministry of Justice.
Tensei bowed and said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, "Minister, that's right, but it was all luck."
As he spoke, Tensei gestured to everyone and released the divine souls of the Bailong Mountain Bandits.
The Minister of Justice extended his hand to suppress the numerous Spirits. His astonished gaze shifted towards Tensei before sweeping across the rest of the crowd. A faint smile surfaced on his dignified face. "The Prime Minister's residence is indeed formidable. To think that a group of soldiers could actually accomplish such a great feat!"
"Men, give them the reward!"
As the Minister spoke, he stood up and entered the Ministry of Justice. He had no intention of paying any further attention to the matter.
Tensei glanced at him and couldn't help but feel moved. When the Minister entered the door, he actually respectfully led the way for a young man beside him.
The young man seemed to have sensed something. He also looked back at Tensei and nodded slightly with a smile.
Soon, the 25 million God Stones were delivered to Tensei. Tensei casually distributed the God Stones to everyone and walked towards the Prime Minister's residence.
Little did he know that the young man who stepped into the Ministry of Justice laughed. "Interesting. I didn't expect to encounter such a thing on my trip to the Ministry of Justice. Minister, ask those Spirits what's going on."
The Minister hurriedly bowed and said, "Understood. Your Highness, please wait a moment!"
Tensei and the others had already walked far away. After distributing the God Stones, the three squads were simply worshipping Tensei. Their faces were filled with joy. "Baisheng, I really want to see Bing Yinwei's expression when he learns about this!"
Tensei didn't respond. Instead, he asked, "Did you notice the young man beside the Minister? Who is he? "
Everyone thought for a moment and then shook their heads. When encountering a lower first grade official, they almost didn't dare to raise their heads. How could they notice the young man Tensei spoke of?
Tensei shrugged. The mission hadn't been completed yet. It was a bit strange!
In the Ministry of Justice, the Minister had already interrogated the reason. He respectfully said to the young man, "Your Highness, I've asked clearly. It was the soldiers of the Prime Minister's residence who sowed discord, making the people of Bailong Mountain kill each other and reap the benefits."
The young man smiled. "That squad leader isn't simple. With an early Divine Lord cultivation, he actually dared to go to Bailong Mountain. It can be said that he's brave and resourceful."
The Minister also smiled. "If Your Highness needs it, I'll order someone to inquire about that squad leader. At that time, it shouldn't be difficult for Your Highness to take him under your command."
"There's no hurry. I'll go to the Prime Minister's residence later."
In the Prime Minister's residence, Bing Yin Wei's face was twitching violently as he stared in disbelief at Tensei and the others who were kneeling before him. In just one night, they actually managed to exterminate the Bailong Mountain Bandits!
In the main hall, the Prime Minister and the First Madam sat side by side. The First Madam looked at Tensei in surprise before looking at Bing Yin Wei. She smiled and said, "Yin Wei, you've done well this time. You've sent them to exterminate the troublesome Bailong Mountain. If news of this spreads, your reputation will soar!"
The Prime Minister frowned as he looked at Tensei and the others. "Ning Bai Sheng, you may leave first!"
"Yes!" Tensei and the others left. The First Madam asked suspiciously, "Master, why are you unhappy?"
The Prime Minister gritted his teeth and glared at Bing Yin Wei. "To think that you can still be happy! Something that the Fire Emperor's Army and the Imperial Guards couldn't do was done by my Prime Minister's soldiers. If news of this spreads, what would His Majesty think? What would the Fire Emperor's Army think? "
The First Madam and Bing Yin Wei didn't understand what the Prime Minister meant. However, they knew that this wasn't a good thing.
The Prime Minister's face was gloomy as he continued, "The Prime Minister's achievements have shocked the Emperor. Now, every step I take is as if I'm walking on thin ice. I'm trying to keep a low profile to prevent gossip from spreading. You unfilial son, you've pushed the Prime Minister's residence to the cusp of the storm!"
"Father, my Prime Minister's soldiers were able to exterminate the Bailong Mountain. My reputation will definitely soar. This is obviously a good thing …"
"Peng!"
The Prime Minister slapped the table beside him, turning it into dust. "Idiot! You still don't understand? Go back to your room and reflect on your mistakes! Think carefully before you come out! "
Bing Yin Wei saw that the Prime Minister was angry and didn't dare to say anything else. He left resentfully. The First Madam didn't dare to plead for leniency. At this moment, she finally understood the severity of this matter. She whispered, "Master, what should we do next? Ning Bai Sheng and the others went to the Ministry of Justice first. This matter can't be hidden anymore! "
The Prime Minister glanced at the First Madam and slowly regained his composure. He then opened his mouth and said, "This third troop cannot be left in the residence. I heard that the Princess wanted to take Ning Bai Sheng away. Is that true?"
As he spoke, the Prime Minister sighed. If it were any other official, they would be eager to achieve such a feat and keep Ning Bai Sheng. However, the Prime Minister's residence was different. A tall tree would attract the wind. How could he be greedy and flaunt his achievements?
"Master, that's true. However, I heard that after the Princess reported to His Majesty, His Majesty didn't agree to it." The First Madam said.
The Prime Minister frowned. After thinking for some time, his eyes lit up. "I have an idea!"
