Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

Victor King's mind worked quickly, and he spoke directly to the four councilors.

“Fourth Councilor, I am under the command of the Illuminati. I am different from these clan leaders... I am your subordinate, and now I am also Yin Pan'er's subordinate. If she needs me to do anything, she only needs to say one word... to give us orders directly, and we will obey her commands.”

Just then, the fourth council member smiled.

He then said, "Good! You answered cleverly..."

As he spoke, the four cardinals looked at Ed White.

After looking at it, Ed White, being a smart man, didn't say a word.

He quickly echoed, "Fourth Councilor, Chairman Victor King and I share the same opinion. We are your people... We have no reason to refuse your orders... From now on, we will do whatever Acting Director Yin says..."

The fourth council member nodded: "Very good! Now that I didn't give you two light cards, will you have any thoughts about that?"

The four council members asked this question seemingly casually.

In reality, it was a continued test of the two people.

Both shook their heads: "Of course not, we've already obtained the Gilded Light Card. Furthermore, Agent Yin has a thousand Light Guardians; if they need our help in the future... they will definitely give it to us..."

After listening to the two men, the Fourth Councilor nodded: "Very good, you are both very aware. Continue to assist Agent Yin in his work. Once you gain his support, it's possible that you will each receive ten, or even twenty, permanent Light Guardians..."

After hearing what the Fourth Councilor said, both of their eyes lit up...

Xiao Ce was all too familiar with the way the four council members spoke.

The scheme of these four councilors making empty promises is unlike anything Westerners do; it's more like the scheme of their Great Xiao Kingdom.

Deja vu.

After saying this, the four councilors did not continue with any further words.

He simply waved to them.

"Alright, from now on, you'll all listen to Agent Yin. One last reminder: you must treat Agent Yin as if she were me... Don't underestimate her. I've given her equal rights as I do..."

The people here now looked at Yin Pan'er with serious eyes.

These people's attitudes can be roughly divided into several stages.

The first stage is probably when there is no trust at all, and one only feels that Yin Pan'er is a pawn that has been pushed out.

In the second phase, they suspected that Yin Pan'er might be the woman of one of the four councilors...

However, at this stage, they realized that the four council members' admiration for Yin Pan'er was not just simple; they even discerned that they were on equal footing...

This is very intriguing.

Next, Yin Pan'er said she was going to see off the four councilors.

The four council members naturally agreed.

Seeing this, the others all said they would also go to see them off.

However, when they tried to go, they were stopped...

The four council members said to them, "Alright, you don't need to come along..."

They all agreed this time.

After Yin Pan'er left with Xiao Ce and the four councilors,

These people were all excitedly holding their black gold cards.

"Brian, you're such a smart guy... I'm so glad I watched you go for it, otherwise I would have really missed out..."

After hearing the overjoyed family patriarch's words, Brian said, "I was just lucky...who knew something like this would happen...it was unexpected, a pleasant surprise..."

"Patriarch Brian, what are your plans next? Do you still need to stay and have a few more words with that Agent Yin?"

Brian shook his head: "No... I'm leaving..."

After hearing Brian's words, the people around him began to speak up.

"Patriarch Brian, do you intend to leave?"

Brian nodded and then said, "That's right. Actually, what we each need to do is quite clear. Everyone can see that Agent Yin is not as superficial as we imagine. Let's take action to get closer to her..."

After hearing Brian's words, the others nodded in agreement.

"Alright, then I'll go say goodbye with Agent Yin later..."

Those who received the Light Card almost all wanted to leave, since they had already obtained it.

There are four families left who have no intention of leaving.

Everyone else left with their light cards, even if there was only one light guardian, that's still a good thing...

If they really did return empty-handed, it would be very difficult for them to accept...

So they decided to stay.

Yin Pan'er escorted the four directors to the disembarkation area on one side.

"Fourth Councilor, are you really just going to leave so easily? Don't you want to say a few more words to me?"

The four councilors smiled, first glancing at Yin Pan'er, then at Xiao Ce.

Then, quite meaningfully, he said, "No need for further words, everything that needed to be said has been said... After you've finished what you're doing, we'll meet again!"

Just then, Yin Pan'er nodded to the four council members: "As for them..."

The fourth council member remained calm and said, "I told you before... you can do whatever you want with me... Now, you have the same rights as me..."

Yin Pan'er smiled at the Fourth Director and then said, "Yes, Fourth Director, I know what to do..."

As he spoke, the four directors disembarked from the ship.

"Your trusted confidant?"

The fourth council member smiled at Yin Pan'er and then said, "It's alright, he'll naturally come to find me after he's finished explaining things to Fak..."

Without saying another word, the four councilors disembarked from the ship.

They then boarded a small connecting boat.

After boarding the small shuttle boat, the four councilors sailed directly onto another waiting vessel on the side.

Yin Pan'er watched as Xiao Ce gazed in the direction where the four key council members had left.

He asked with suspicion, "Your Highness, do you think there's something wrong with this person?"

Xiao Ce nodded: "That's right... there's definitely something wrong. As the saying goes, 'Unsolicited kindness is either a swindler or a thief...'"

Upon hearing Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er looked at him with curiosity...

"Your Highness, then why are you still..."

Xiao Ce smiled at Yin Pan'er and then said, "Regardless of their purpose, at least for us now, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages... Let's just take it one step at a time..."

Yin Pan'er nodded, then looked at the ship: "Then this giant ship, when..."

Xiao Ce said, "They'll definitely leave eventually... You still want to use this giant ship?"

Yin Pan'er smiled and said, "That's right... Do you think we can control this giant ship?"

Xiao Ce said to Yin Pan'er, "You can totally give it a try..."

The two chatted and laughed as they walked back.

On the way, Xiao Ce asked Da Lei, "Da Lei, when did Fak leave?"

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Da Lei smiled and said, "It wasn't long. Actually, it was around the time you were talking about the light card that they left... It seems that the confidant went to Fak and talked about something."

Xiao Ce said to Da Lei, "Okay..."

Da Lei smiled at Xiao Ce, then asked, "So, do you think we should go find him?"

After hearing Da Lei's words, Xiao Ce smiled and said, "No need... let them go."

Yin Pan'er then asked Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, should we go back now?"

Xiao Ce nodded: "Those people are definitely trying to curry favor with you..."

Yin Pan'er said, "Tell me, did the Fourth Grand Councilor order me to kill them?"

Xiao Ce smiled and said, "Clearly, their ultimate goal isn't for us to stir up war here, but to calmly resolve the problems existing within their Illuminati..."

After listening to Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er nodded in agreement.

...

Meanwhile, the four councilors on the other side boarded a ship.

A fully armed and armored soldier was already waiting.

Upon seeing the soldier, the fourth councilor clearly showed surprise and bowed, saying, "Sir, you've arrived?"

The soldiers nodded and then said nothing more.

He then led the four councilors directly to the cabin door on one side, without waiting for the fully armed and armored soldiers to speak.

The four councilors, who were wearing masks, respectfully removed their masks from their faces!
