"What is it?" First Madam asked expectantly.
The Prime Minister had a mysterious smile on his face, "Team Three is too dazzling this time. If we were to keep them here, they would definitely incur the wrath of the Imperial Army, the Royal Guards and even the Emperor. For now, we should send them out for three to five years before we decide what to do next!"
The First Madam furrowed her brows. "Ning Bai Sheng is a rare talent. If he were to participate in the Monolith Viewing Conference, wouldn't it be better if he was valued by His Majesty? At that time, His Majesty would very likely recruit him into the palace and even give him better treatment. He would naturally leave the Prime Minister's manor."
"In this way, His Majesty will think that our Prime Minister Estate has recommended our talents, and will definitely lower his guard against us."
The smile on the Prime Minister's face grew wider. He understood what the First Madam meant. If the Prime Minister's Mansion were to hand over their talents to the Fire Emperor, the Fire Emperor would definitely think that the Prime Minister's Mansion was loyal to him. When that happens, the Prime Minister's Mansion would no longer be in a precarious situation.
However, the Prime Minister still shook his head. "Madam is right. His Majesty loves talents. This move will indeed make my Prime Minister Manor much more relaxed. However, there is still half a year before the Monolith Viewing Conference. Even if Ning Baisheng participates in the conference, he may not be able to learn anything from it."
With that, the Prime Minister stood up. "Soul-Calming Grass has appeared in the Chaotic Demon Mountain Range in the north. I will send Squad Three to retrieve it. Whether they can return safely will depend on their fate."
The Big Madam was shocked. A group of Divine Lord Realm martial artists had rushed into the Chaotic Demon Mountain Range? That was no different from courting death. It seemed that the Prime Minister had already made up his mind to let Squad Three fend for itself!
As she watched the Prime Minister leave, the First Madam's expression slowly returned to normal. Traces of a smile appeared on her face. "What a pity, such a talent. But that's good too. This way, no one will know about that matter."
What the First Madam was talking about was naturally the matter of ordering Ning Baisheng and the others to kill the Ice Spirit. Not long ago, she had thought of killing Ning Baisheng to silence him, but seeing how Ning Baisheng kept his mouth shut and surprised her again and again, she didn't do it.
Now that the Prime Minister wanted them to fend for themselves, how could she object?
However, she did not lie to Tensei. She really strongly recommended that Tensei participate in the Monument Viewing Conference.
In a small courtyard, the members of Team Three were sitting together, talking and laughing. When they saw the look of disbelief on Bing Yin Wei's face, they were extremely happy!
"The Prime Minister is here!" Tensei hurriedly said when he sensed the Prime Minister's aura.
Everyone was shocked. The Prime Minister actually came to look for them personally?
"Greetings, Prime Minister!" Seeing the Prime Minister step into the small courtyard, everyone hurriedly saluted.
The Prime Minister swept his gaze across the crowd. His majestic aura made everyone's hearts tighten. Fortunately, the Prime Minister did not say much. He directly said, "Ning Baisheng, do you still remember the matter of the Third Miss?"
Tensei was puzzled. Why was he bringing up the Ice Spirit again?
"Now, a stalk of Soul-Calming Grass has appeared in the Chaotic Demon Mountain Range. I hope you can go and retrieve it to comfort the Third Young Miss' soul." The Prime Minister continued, "But it's too dangerous for you to go alone. Bring Squad Three with you. If you succeed, Squad Three will participate in the monolith viewing convention!"
Everyone's expression changed. They were happy and helpless at the same time. The Chaotic Demon Mountain Range was not easy to pass. It was said that even the Divine Emperor Realm demonic beasts were not easy to pass!
Tensei did not hesitate. He bowed and said, "Yes, Prime Minister!"
The Prime Minister nodded and left. Tensei gradually frowned. With the power of the Prime Minister's residence, why would he need so many people to retrieve a stalk of Soul-Calming Grass? If he wants it, someone will give it to him!
"Notification: Congratulations on completing the mission 'Bandit Extermination'. System Reward: 1,000,000 System Experience Points, 1,000,000 Unique Points, + 10 Lottery Chances."
Suddenly, the notification in his mind interrupted Tensei's thoughts. "Just a little reward?"
"It can't be that this matter has made the Prime Minister see us in a new light, right? But the Prime Minister thinks too highly of us. Going to the Chaotic Demon Mountain Range is no different from courting death! "Everyone's discussion interrupted Tensei's thoughts.
Tensei thought for a while and asked, "How is the Prime Minister doing in the imperial court?"
"That's incredible. The Prime Minister had contributed greatly to the establishment of the Fire Domain. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that his contributions were so great that even the Emperor would be intimidated by him. Hence, the Emperor respects him greatly and listens to everything the Prime Minister says!" Everyone replied respectfully.
Tensei's heart skipped a beat as he shouted out, "Oh no!"
How could the Fire Emperor listen to the orders of a First Ranking Official in the imperial court? It seemed like the Fire Emperor was extremely fearful of Bing Wumou!
Thoughts flashed through Tian Chen's mind. He instantly guessed the Prime Minister's situation and made a plan. "It must be because we wiped out the Bailong Mountain this time and put the Prime Minister in danger. Therefore, the Prime Minister sent us to our deaths!"
Hearing Tensei's words, everyone's faces turned ugly. They looked at Tensei and asked fearfully, "What should we do then?"
"Let's go. Let's leave the city." Tensei stood up and walked out.
After leaving the city, they flew for a long distance before Tensei stopped. He took in a deep breath and turned around to look at everyone. "Give me the weapons that the Prime Minister's residence issued to you!"
"Bai Sheng, what's the matter?" Everyone's hearts were already heavy. When they heard Tensei's strange request, they couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
Tensei looked at everyone calmly. "All of you have over a million god stones. Although it's not much, it's enough to last you for a long time. I'm afraid we're all going to die this time. I want you to fake your deaths and leave the Prime Minister's residence.
"Bai Sheng, you want to erase the imprints on the weapons after we leave and tell the Prime Minister that we're dead?" The eighteen of them looked at Tensei solemnly.
Tensei nodded his head heavily. "That's right. You should know that even if we bring the Requiem Grass back, what awaits us would be death. We should take this opportunity to fake our deaths and escape. That's the best choice!"
To Tensei's surprise, the eighteen of them shook their heads in unison. "If that's the case, you'll be in danger alone. No, we'll have to live and die together!"
"No, after I bring the Requiem Grass back, I'll make arrangements. Nothing will happen. However, I can't take care of everyone. So, I can only ask you to leave now!" Tensei's expression became serious.
"Absolutely not. Our team has supported each other for many years. We can't lose anyone!" Everyone said firmly.
Tensei frowned slightly. After a moment of silence, he took out the low-grade god sword that was issued to the mansion soldiers with his right hand. "In that case, brothers, sorry for the offense!"
Whoosh! In an instant, streaks of sword radiance appeared. A powerful sword essence swept out and enveloped the eighteen of them.
"Bai Sheng, what are you doing?" Everyone was furious. However, at this moment, they realized that under Tensei's sword essence, they couldn't bring themselves to be hostile. It was as if they could only be crushed!
Puff …
A series of soft puffs sounded. The eighteen of them were severely injured in an instant. Tensei took the opportunity and snatched their swords in a few breaths. Then, he took out eighteen bottles of elixirs. "Leave the Fire Divine Realm. We'll meet again if we're fated!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tian Chen's figure had already disappeared, leaving behind 18 people who were seriously injured and had a dull look on their faces.
