The ninja had no time to be happy. Amid the crackling sounds, he recalled many more things. In the end, a look of chagrin appeared on his face. Then, a flash of golden light streaked before him, and the corpse was split apart.
At this point, the assassination cooperation between Tea Leaves and Hidden Mist Village had ended in complete failure, with three victims and three dead.
Mirai looked at the two corpses that had already returned to normal. He could not help rubbing his chin and said regretfully, "Even if I'm not here now, what advantage do I still have?"
"Sir..."
Qimu Fengtian cautiously called out to Mirai, who was smacking his lips.
"What is it?"
Mirai turned his head toward Qimu Fengtian and answered in a rather stern tone. He had not expected trouble to arise in someone else's territory.
"If you intend to return... Sir Hui, on behalf of the Feudal Lord of the Grass King, I invite you to the Feudal Lord's residence to catch up. I wonder what Sir Xu thinks?"
"Oh?"
Mirai glanced at Qimu Fengtian with amusement. He knew that Qimu Fengtian had acted on his own initiative, hoping to curry favor with Mirai. As for the Feudal Lord of Grass, he was merely a puppet. Naturally, he would not dare defy Oromo's instructions from behind the scenes and would certainly do his best to befriend Mirai.
The people who had died today had died for nothing as well.
"No, I still have work to do. Once I find my companion, I'll leave the Land of Grass."
Mirai replied as he rose to leave.
"I'll see you off, sir."
Akagi Hōten naturally did not dare linger any longer. Besides, he believed that what he had done today had already shown Mirai considerable respect.
