106: The wise choice is to reap the benefits without lifting a finger!
"Sir, what should we do then?"
Zhou Lin did not presumptuously suggest reporting it to Her Majesty.
He knew very well the weight Shen Tianxing held with Her Majesty now; if anyone were to report such a major matter, it would be Shen Tianxing!
Smart people act without needing reminders.
Shen Tianxing smiled and said nonchalantly, "Since we've arrived, let's settle down first. There's no need to rush!"
"We always have to give them a chance, right? How can they perform otherwise?"
"However, you must also be careful from now on. Do not relax your vigilance. Our situation will be very dangerous. Those Various Demon Sects and Various Ghost Dao Sects will not just stand by and watch their people be caught in one fell swoop!"
"Pei Wang City will become very lively!"
Zhou Lin was startled by Shen Tianxing's words.
"Sir, Pei Wang City is heavily guarded with experts everywhere. It shouldn't allow chaos within the city, right?"
"It won't? Then what do you think Prince Pei will do at that time?"
Shen Tianxing looked at him with a smile.
"This..."
Zhou Lin opened his mouth.
Prince Pei harbored malicious intentions, and today, Shen Tianxing had thoroughly offended him. If it weren't for the imperial edict in hand, he was certain they would never have left Prince Pei's Mansion.
If such a situation truly arose, what would Prince Pei do?
Did he even need to ask?
"Haha..."
"Reaping the benefits of others' struggles is the choice of a smart person!"
"A city can stop ordinary people, but it cannot stop true experts. If we die here, Prince Pei would at most be guilty of dereliction of duty; it wouldn't be blamed on him at all."
"But he would have effectively eliminated us troublesome fellows."
"With such great benefits, if it were you, what would you choose?"
"..."
After listening to Shen Tianxing's analysis, Zhou Lin said nothing, but cold sweat beaded on his forehead.
The power struggles of those in high positions were terrifying!
You wouldn't even know what kind of trap they had set for you to fall into, and you wouldn't realize it even after you were caught!
The key was, you wouldn't even know how you died until your last breath!
This Prince Pei truly lived up to his reputation as someone who once contended for the throne!
His schemes were too deep!
Although Zhou Lin's cultivation had reached the Carefree Realm, truthfully, he was merely a Cultivator, just a brute. When it came to fighting, he had his pride, but when it came to playing power games and schemes, he felt deeply powerless.
He wasn't cut out for it!
He glanced at Shen Tianxing, seeing his composed expression, without a hint of panic. He didn't know where Shen Tianxing's confidence came from, but this composure alone was enough to put him at ease.
As a subordinate, he only needed to follow Shen Tianxing's orders!
The line of carriages, accompanied by their casual conversation, left the city... outside the south gate!
Ling Feiyang, with over a hundred experts, guarded another carriage, waiting for Shen Tianxing to return.
"Sir!"
Seeing Shen Tianxing's carriage emerge, everyone gathered together.
"Let's go, we'll talk more when we get back."
After giving the order, the carriages again took the lead, with over a hundred experts following the two carriages, heading towards the mountainside across the river.
Inside the city, all the Cultivators waiting to watch the show saw Shen Tianxing and his group leave.
"Strange, Shen Tianxing actually managed to leave safely?"
"Prince Pei actually didn't make things difficult for them? I thought Prince Pei had ordered an attack just now."
"Are you kidding? Shen Tianxing has an imperial edict in his hand. How much guts does Prince Pei have to dare to attack him?"
"Don't forget how the Wenjian Sect disappeared!"
Hearing these words, everyone no longer found it strange.
With Her Majesty backing Shen Tianxing, and Shen Tianxing's own impressive cultivation, Prince Pei would certainly not act rashly unless he intended to rebel... After crossing the river, they followed a main road up the mountainside.
The Imperial Garden here was very large, almost covering half of the mountainside. It would be impossible to achieve this with ordinary financial resources.
Only a prince like Prince Pei, with his status, position, and immense wealth, could be so extravagant!
The servants in the Imperial Garden had already received orders and had all been reassigned.
During the time Shen Tianxing stayed in Pei Wang City, this Imperial Garden of Prince Pei's Mansion became his territory!
The carriage stopped, and Shen Tianxing approached Ye Qingyu's carriage.
Ye Qingyu and Xu Muyan had not woken up. Both were injured and had not yet been treated, needing some time.
The curtain was lifted, revealing Xu Muqing's beautiful face.
"Big Brother Shen..."
Seeing Shen Tianxing, Xu Muqing's pretty face flushed slightly.
Shen Tianxing had taken care of her all this way. Although she felt a little embarrassed, it indeed made her feel very safe.
"You first take your sister to the side room. I will have someone come to treat her injuries."
With the experts from the Qimen Division following, their injuries would recover quickly.
"Understood, thank you, Big Brother Shen!"
Xu Muqing glanced at Ye Qingyu beside her, sighed softly, and carried Xu Muyan into the separate courtyard.
That glance almost made Shen Tianxing feel like he was a heartless man.
Shaking his head, he picked up Ye Qingyu. The group of experts around all lowered their heads, pretending not to see anything.
After settling Ye Qingyu, Shen Tianxing sent for Nie Xiaowu of the Qimen Division.
He arranged for Nie Xiaowu to treat her and look after her.
After taking care of these chores, Shen Tianxing went to a large plaza in the backyard.
A huge figure appeared in the sky, approaching from afar.
The Azure Dragon Eagle sensed his summons and landed on the vast plaza.
Boom!
As its massive body stepped down, the stone slabs on the plaza shattered.
"Alright, alright, why so excited!"
Shen Tianxing patted the Azure Dragon Eagle's wing, comforting it.
Then, Shen Tianxing took out a crystal-clear Jade Slip from his embrace.
This Jade Slip was something he had just prepared. He had recorded all the events that occurred after entering the West Continent, including his experiences in Prince Pei's Mansion and the information he had gathered, using his Divine Soul power.
This Jade Slip was for Her Majesty!
"Take the Jade Slip back and give it to Your Majesty!"
The matter of Pei Wang City was of great importance.
The Various Demon Sects, the Various Ghost Dao Sects, and even the Holy Heaven Demon Sect hidden behind them, might all emerge to cause trouble.
The entire Nanyuan Domain would not be peaceful. When the time came to show their true colors, he alone, along with the experts around him, would be utterly unable to cope.
This was not a grand situation that he alone could control!
Shen Tianxing had a very clear understanding of his position.
Therefore, he needed Her Majesty!
Roar!!!
The Azure Dragon Eagle was intelligent and understood Shen Tianxing's meaning.
Clutching the Jade Slip in its beak, it unfurled its massive wings, glanced at Shen Tianxing, and soared into the sky!
The Azure Dragon Eagle's speed was fast enough. Although it was not yet fully mature, no Soul Palace Realm expert could stop it now.
This Jade Slip could be delivered smoothly into Her Majesty's hands!
"The source of turmoil, the beginning of evil."
"What a pity, he could have been a wise prince of an empire, but instead he chooses to be someone else's dog!"
Shen Tianxing shook his head, feeling quite emotional.
The West Continent was the final destination of the chaotic lands.
Pei Wang City was the source!
Everything began here, and it would also end here!
"Forget it, what does it have to do with me?"
"I just need some experience points."
"My current cultivation Realm is still too low, far from being able to influence the overall situation."
Although a Grand Expert of the Carefree Realm was powerful, they could not control the course of a war.
When the experts behind the demons and ghosts appeared, Divine Profound Realm experts would surely show themselves.
Perhaps that Realm would have some say.
After arranging all the various matters, Shen Tianxing returned to his room and began to Cultivate.
Next, he still had many things to do!
