Three days later...

While Minos' group was moving through the magnificent forest of the Divine Continent, the group of the patriarch Longus was prepared for their arrival in the vicinity of his headquarters.

They didn't know what Minos was doing at this moment, but they knew he must be on the Divine Continent looking for them by now.

He should be looking for support on this continent to attack this headquarters and silence them before they spread the word about the Spatial Kingdom.

Patriarch Longus and his strongest elders were not fools. Over the years, they had investigated Minos enough and knew how vindictive he was.

Minos was a person incapable of forgiveness, one willing to exterminate the family of an already surrendered enemy.

So they were sure he was preparing as best he could to crush them.

However, they didn't think that Minos would succeed this time!

Not only did they not underestimate him, but since they knew about the magnificent techniques left by Henricus Longus, they had their trap ready against him!

They had Demigods on their side, dozens of Spiritual Sages, and not only that, a group on the Black Plain.

This group in Minos' empire hadn't managed to kidnap anyone from the Stuart family since these people were smart enough not to leave the new dome of Dry City. However, they were all around that state, and even if everything went wrong here in Grinia Empire, they still had a way to threaten Emperor Stuart!

These Spiritual Sages could range from attacking the empire to even releasing the truth about Minos to the world!

Thus, the leaders of this family were very confident in their plans.

Amidst this, the family leaders were getting increasingly anxious for the day when they would have their ancestor's Spatial Kingdom back!

...

In the large inner building of the largest tree on the outskirts of that great forest, the patriarch Longus was walking towards the traps while standing next to his supreme elder.

'How are our plans coming along? Has something unexpected happened recently?' The patriarch asked before leaving that place and coming across this piece of the forest where every tree was his family's property, with internal constructions.

The supreme elder smiled and said in his mental communication. 'No problems have hit us in the last few days. Everything is ready for us to receive the chosen one... We have already lowered our defenses around that group, so he will probably infiltrate here through them.'

The patriarch smiled, 'Very good. Let's eliminate those rebel fools along with the damned Chosen One. Since they plan to act against the family, we will clean up the organization when they start their attack.'

Fermo's group had plans, but so did the patriarch's.

The patriarch's group knew how favorable the people on Fermo's side were towards the chosen one. So when they decided to stand against Minos, the leaders of this family already expected that those hybrids from this faction would betray them in some way.

With this in mind, the patriarch would facilitate Minos' entry through this faction and then act against them all!

They had other plans in case the Fermo group was not rebelling, but the patriarch thought that the attack would come from within this group.

Besides, he no longer intended to bring Minos over to his side and control him. After everything they had already learned about Emperor Stuart and his decisive move to come to this place to attack them, the group of leaders of this family already knew that they could not talk to him.

Only by killing him would they have a chance to take advantage of their ancestor's heritage!

As for the future threat to this world, they felt they could do more about it with the Spatial Kingdom in their hands than Minos could.

After all, they had many high-level cultivators, while the Black Plain Empire only had a few Spiritual Sages.

The patriarch laughed and said. "In a few centuries, we will be on top of that world again, haha."

'Centuries?' Someone watching them from afar clenched his fists upon hearing this.

'If we are not united on the side of the chosen one, in centuries, we will all be dead!' This person looked hatefully at the patriarch, feeling how the greed for power of their leaders had made them negligent.

They didn't have centuries. At most, they would have a few decades before the catastrophe predicted by Henricus Longus hit them!

Unfortunately, she and her faction could no longer change the minds of these people and could only wait for the confrontation between Minos and these people.

Hopefully, the family would not be damaged too badly, and they would still have a future after this internal dispute.

...

Meanwhile, in Dry City...

Ruth was at this instant in Abby and Minos' place, sitting on the Emperor's throne while leading that state.

She was fully aware of the presence of high-level Spiritual Sages on the outskirts of the empire, as they had mid-level Sages able to identify these men's spiritual and spatial fluctuations.

Considering the current situation of their state with the Longus family, their staff judged that these people were involved with such a family.

With this in mind, Ruth and her government were acting to protect her family's interests.

"Your Majesty, I have heard that your imperial family wishes to transact business with my kingdom." A woman from the Flowers Kingdom said this, standing in front of Ruth while she had a curious look on her face.

"What exactly do you people want with us? Our states already have many trade agreements and partnerships... Is there something new for us to deal with?"

"Indeed there is," Ruth said in a solemn tone. "Your Highness Mcbride, our empire is facing a current problem, and we hope your family can help us.

We will return this in the future to your state with interest and correction. If you help us with this now, we will make an effort 10 times that of your family now to return the favor in the future."

"Oh? What is it?" One of the princesses from that state asked.

To her, this empire seemed to be doing very well recently due to the tensions south of the continent. So what was this problem affecting the Black Plain?

Ruth went straight to the point. "Please lend us your forces. We need at least 2 level 90 Demigods to deal with some enemies around our state.

Your mission would be to eliminate them without asking questions or giving them a chance to speak.

In return, we will give you much more than this in the future.

My husband will become a high-level Sage and will be able to benefit your kingdom greatly. So I ask you to consider this before you make up your mind."
