Mission 45

"Alright, there's nothing more for you to attend to at present. You may depart. It seems that one by one, you struggle with handling tasks. You exhibit incompetence at every turn. What purpose does your presence here serve?" The King of Baizhou Land expressed his dissatisfaction, rose from his seat, and hastily left.

The Grand Council ministers lingered in an uncomfortable silence.

Naturally, the King was displeased with Wu Jinghui's suggestion.

They were reluctant to break free from the thousand-year-old traditions because of the risks involved.

Yet, the King's remarks held a kernel of truth.

But…

The Grand Council ministers sighed and eventually dispersed.

They were bound for Jinwei Land to investigate.

Concerns about the impending outcome weighed heavily on their minds.

The ministers traveled in groups of two or three, while Wu Jinghui proceeded alone.

He harbored no resentment.
