The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 1312 Arriving In Albano

Four months later...

After months since Minos' departure from the Grey Clouds Sect, Lance was slowly starting to get nervous, not understanding why his enemy was still alive.

They had tried to spread the news about Minos' passage through the Empire to the Saints Killing Sect many times in this period, but still, nothing.

Minos' family in the Flaming Empire had a soul lamp with the vital status of this young man. That was something Maisie had had for a long time, from when Minos had started cultivating, something Dillian had given her.

As Lance and his staff knew this, they knew that if something had happened to King Stuart, the core of the Coleman family would not be so calm in these past months.

Because of this, Lance knew that Minos was still alive somewhere, and his hatred could not help but increase every day, making him more and more stressed.

"What's going on? How can the people of the Saints Killing Sect be so incompetent against him?" He questioned his men as he paced back and forth in his office, gesturing.

"They are so good at fighting us... But against a mere Spiritual Emperor... No, that one they can't kill!" He said while the expressions of the people in that office were livid.

"We are investigating the matter, young master. But it seems that the first group to go against Minos perished suddenly. After that, that sect turned its eyes to the matter and started investigating the incident." Someone said in a low voice.

"However, as opposed to seeking immediate revenge, they seem to have given up on going after Minos..." Another person commented. "I honestly don't understand what happened."

But they did not know that the sect in question had found out about those families' plans along with Abe, which at this point had already guaranteed them extermination!

The master of the Saints Killing Sect had investigated the matter. When he discovered such madness, he went berserk and ordered that each involved should be killed.

He had fought hard to lead his sect to become one of the three strongest in the Empire. Still, then a dozen idiots suddenly tried to destroy him by acting against the rules of the fucking Spiritual Church!

That was unacceptable!

Hence, he cleaned up his sect, hoping to bury the matter and remove the threat from the Church.

As for Minos, in his view, this young man had a lot of potentials, but it was not worth the risk of being associated with Abe's madness. So, he simply prevented more people from his sect from going after King Stuart's head.

At the end of the day, even with his immense potential, Minos was only a level 62 Spiritual Emperor, while the sect master was someone of level 79...

He could not be bothered with such a tiny insect!

Anyway, Lance and his group continued talking about it, worried about their failed moves.

...

While Lance was worrying, Minos quietly traveled on Maida's back with his wives.

After the previous situation, Minos and his group had been traveling through the Flaming Empire, almost crossing that state to the border with Albano and Blackrock.

In the meantime, Ruth has advanced to level 63 and Kyla to 59, which was made easier by the fights and training they had during this period of travel.

They, of course, visited many cities and even areas dominated by spiritual beasts during this period, which were extraordinary experiences for all of them.

In this period, they did not have to deal with problems like those Minos faced in the Gray Clouds Sect, much less potential rivalries passed down from generation to generation.

So Minos and his wives had no headaches regarding challenges generated by situations caused by Maisie and Oswald. They had only fought in this period when they encountered criminals, violent beasts, or friendly challenges, ordinary things to encounter throughout the Spiritual World.

Besides that, they kept receiving news from the more critical events on Black Plain and Vogel.

According to Dillian, the Black Plain has had no problems so far, having just gone along with Minos' development plans with no delays.

As for Vogel, Elen had informed the four traveling through the Empire that the noble families of that state were already operating together, following the orders of the Vogel Assembly.

Not only that, they were more confident than ever that they needed Minos as king since constantly the Flaming Empire was testing the alliance of the four kingdoms to the north.

Because of this, the tension and fear of war were at a high level in each of those states, with them more confident than ever that they needed to stick together to face these difficult times.

And for that, Vogel needed Minos and Rosser, Albano and Blackrock needed Vogel well...

As a result, all was going well for the plans of King Stuart, who was traveling alongside his three beautiful wives, every day trying to get Ruth and Abby pregnant. But, of course, he was also looking after Gloria, who had already progressed a little further in her pregnancy.

In this way, the Stuart family finally reached their next destination before returning to the Black Plain!

At this moment, they were on Maida's back, watching this black-furred beast decrease its flight altitude to land somewhere.

No one could fly on the border of the Flaming Empire with the enemy kingdoms of this state since that could be considered a target for both sides in the conflict.

So Maida followed Minos' orders, so they could enter Albano by land and thus avoid attacks from both sides on the battlefield.

But in doing so, Minos and his wives soon realized the tension in that area, where both sides seemed to fear one conflict with the other.

The alliance of the four kingdoms was confident that war would break out at any moment as the Empire's soldiers prepared to attack.

Few people knew that the emperor had no such intention, so for the moment, the thousands of people on the borders of this state genuinely believed that a war would start soon.

Because of this, the border area of this state with other states, which generally had many conflicts, was at the moment quiet, in sepulchral silence.

"Hmm? Is someone crossing the border?" Both sides watched Minos and his family running toward Albano.

Usually, people traveling between states would use unique entry locations, which were safer. Thus, their appearance there was somewhat strange.

But both sides feared the other, so no one took any action, giving easy passage to the four humans and one beast.

"It looks like the emperor is doing what he promised, hehe." Minos felt the news he had received, becoming satisfied with his plans.

'Well, I will soon reap the rewards. But before that, I must start my affairs in this state!' He looked at Abby and smiled, ready to search for the God of Death's inheritance.
