A few more weeks passed as Minos, and his group tried to deal with the dangers brought to the Black Plain Empire by Abe's terrorist group.

At that time, Abby had reached level 66. Still, the Stuart family's major accomplishments for the good of the local future had concerned the Flaming Empire's organizations, not its members' advancement.

Minos had talked with Gloria about trying to advance his promotion as master of the Gray Clouds Sect so that he could use that force's members to solve the Black Plain's problems.

On the other hand, Minos had, as it happened occasionally, received visits from Isabella, the princess of the Edwardstone imperial family. Due to that woman's visits and interest, another alternative plan was already in place, with her speaking on his behalf to the emperor.

Harold was a Spiritual Sage, so Isabella had suggested asking her father's help so at least this man could find a way to locate their adversary. From there, Minos would take over the matter and try to communicate with the person or group that had been funding Abe.

He was acting in different ways to stop Abe, but since none of them proved effective so far, he could not help but try everything at his disposal!

...

In the capital of the Flaming Empire, Payton...

In this place, Isabella had just arrived at her family's imperial palace after days of travel between Dry City and this place.

Her relationship with Minos was becoming less and less peculiar, so her visits were somewhat frequent, and the strangeness with the Stuart family was almost gone. But, of course, she was doing all this in secret, using the justification of going to do business with Emperor Stuart.

Fortunately, Harold believed and had no idea that his dignified daughter had not been a virgin for years...

And thinking that his little girl was still pure, he welcomed her into the courtyard of his residence with a smile, pleased to see the face of this woman, who was now at level 71.

"How was the trip? Did you encounter any problems on the Black Plain?" This red-haired man asked while sitting in a meditative position in the middle of a small island inside a large pool.

Isabella sat down near a wooden chair beside one of the banks of this pool that looked like a lake. "Hmm, that place has been living chaotic days since Abe Vogel returned to take revenge on Minos."

"Oh?"

She continued. "But worst of all is the Spiritual Sage who has been helping Abe escape trouble when Minos' group finds him... If it weren't for that person, even with his difficulties, that fellow would have found a way to eliminate the threat to his territory."

"He's powerful." She said in a low voice, but noticeable enough for Harold to hear her.

Isabella had never seen Minos fighting on the Black Plain, only in training with her. But still, she knew enough to notice that he was stronger than her, which was quite impressive considering the difference in levels between the two.

She knew Minos had Golden-grade techniques due to her ability to do soul probing. But even considering that her family only had one of those techniques, she would not tell her father about it since she wanted Emperor Stuart as her man.

In any case, she had some idea of how powerful he was, and she could not help but point that out to her father, who would one day have to approve of their relationship...

Harold heard that, something that coincided with the information his men had passed on to him regarding the status of this ally of his.

He then said. "It's really complicated to deal with someone like that..."

"Hmm, if he had someone on the same level to help him..." She muttered, but again determined on her father to hear her. "Maybe he could quickly solve his problems and focus all his attention on what matters to the Empire..."

Hearing his daughter's suggestive tone, Harold did not need to hear anything more from her to realize that she was talking about him. "Impossible. How would I act against someone like that? Are you crazy, Isabella? Besides, I can't leave the Empire without taking risks concerning those damned women of the Flower Kingdom!"

"You wouldn't have to act against him, father. You would just have to identify him and ask for a meeting with Minos. He wants to talk and understand if he can solve the problem peacefully."

"Humph!"

"Easier said than done!"

...

Meanwhile, Minos had used his state's teleportation ports and quickly traveled from Dry City to Clouds City, in his family's territory.

Arriving at the headquarters of the Gray Clouds Sect once again, on this occasion, Minos had not had to 'break in,' having been promptly identified by the local guards.

Not only had he become famous in this place after his previous passage. He had also gained quite a bit of admiration after the formation of the Black Plain Empire.

Previously, the Black Plain was only an ascendant place in the northern region of this continent. That was where Spiritual Kings were experts, and matters were elementary compared to the problems of the Flaming Empire.

So it was pretty difficult for some people in that place, who naturally had their pride, to admire or respect Minos because of it.

But with the rise of the Black Plain to become an empire, the absorption of Vogel and Minos having raised his level so quickly, everything had changed. Now, as much as that place was still far from the Flaming Empire, it was no longer confusable with the old poor northern region of the Central Continent.

That area now had Spiritual Emperors in every organization, and even 'one' Spiritual Saint was living in the region.

At the same time, in a few short years, the Stuart family had gone from the beginning of the 7th stage and reached the end of it, something awe-inspiring!

That way, more people were talking about Minos in this sect, which made it impossible for anyone not to recognize him when he passed the main entrance to the headquarters of that power.

People circulating that place saw Minos and his wives running through the area, being impressed by their visit and stopping to watch them.

But the four individuals and also Sarah did not waste their time and went directly to Oswald's house, where they wanted to settle their affairs quickly.

Due to the teleportation ports developed in previous years, they could get to and from Dry City in just two days of travel. So, their absence in their territory was not significant to the point of putting the entire Black Plain in danger.

But in any case, they did not want to play with the hard times they were facing and planned to stay only one day in this place!

Minos and his family soon arrived at the place, where without delay, they were face to face with Patience and Oswald, who were naturally very curious about this unexpected visit.

"Minos, what is your purpose here? Has something happened?" Oswald was not the type to curl up, so he got straight to the point, not afraid of scaring his grandson, who was not so different from him.

"Hmm, old man, it's time for you to retire. Why don't you hand me your seat now? I think I am already fully capable of handling this sect."
