The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-482

Pow!

Finally, Ruth made her last attack in this training session with Minos, running at full speed towards this young man and launching a powerful fist attack at his chest.

Puff!

However, with his Indestructible Body activated, young Stuart had no worries of receiving that attack of this already nearly exhausted opponent. Instead, he just accepted this freely while at the same time draining Ruth's energies to continue with his own defenses raised.

Finally, Minos stopped Ruth's hand with just one of his palms, then brought her into his embrace and hugged both of her arms so that she could no longer move.

"You lost." He whispered into her left ear as he had a satisfied smile at the corners of his lips.

Hearing this, Ruth sighed deeply, closing her eyes for a moment and then accepting this defeat. Losing was bad, even in a friendly match. However, she could feel that fighting Minos was the best form of training she could get right now.

With that, as much as she felt a little awkward about losing successively, she also felt happy every time she finished cultivating and noticed that her cultivation speed was increasing!

In the Gray Clouds Sect, several things would make the disciples constantly fight each other, besides carrying out missions externally. And this was something that immensely increased individuals' abilities, making them understand their techniques and cultivate more quickly.

But even there, Ruth couldn't fight as often with someone like Minos, who knew perfectly well how much energy to use in a fight for both sides to have challenges. And that makes training with this young sovereign much more efficient and exciting!

Of course, in that sect, some people could do such a thing. Still, all these cultivators were individuals many levels above Ruth, above the 7th stage, as in Maisie's case.

Even though some of these cultivators had disciples, like Minos' mother with Ruth, these people wouldn't have time to train with their disciples very often.

For all that, Ruth felt good to be able to train with Minos daily. Previously she was the one helping him, but now things turned, and she was the one benefiting from this training.

'Ahh, this change happened so fast... I was hoping I could act like a high-level person in front of him for a few more years...' She thought inwardly, with a smile on her beautiful face.

After the two of them finished fighting, Minos released her and got into a position where he could see Abby and Ruth. "Shall we take a bath?"

"What?" Abby asked in surprise. At this time, they would typically cultivate and then go to bed... But surprisingly, her boyfriend had suggested something different this time.

Shortly after Abby's exclamation, Ruth also exposed her thoughts by asking the following. "What are you planning, Minos?"

"Why do I have to be planning something?" He asked this as he began to take off his clothes slowly. "I just want to relax in the bathtub for a while before starting my cultivation session. Don't you want to accompany me?"

After saying that, he finished taking off the last piece of clothing that was left on his body, exposing it to those two women without a bit of embarrassment on his face.

He then ran his hand over his balls and headed towards that bathtub in the courtyard where they were.

"Minos, haven't I already told you that I don't want to do any of this with other women?" Abby asked, getting up from where she was and going to the side of the tub, where the brown-haired young man was already in the water.

Ruth then added. "I ask you the same, Minos. I don't want to share you with this woman!"

"Calm down. Can't we just enjoy this place for a few minutes together? I'm not saying we need to do anything. I just undressed because I feel more comfortable this way…" He replied without losing his composure, with a sincere expression on his face.

Obviously, this young man hadn't given up sleeping with the two of them at the same time, just because they didn't want to!

He wouldn't force anything, but that doesn't mean he couldn't try to convince them to do it... And this young man knew very well that his problems would not resolve themselves.

If he wanted such a thing to happen, then the first step would be to improve the relationship between Abby and Ruth, until one day they weren't so far apart!

He knew this wasn't so easy to achieve, but he had nothing to lose by trying to do it. At most, if it went wrong, things would continue as they are, and he would be in the same current position.

So, he had decided to provoke these two to do what he wanted right now to try to start a friendlier relationship.

And when they heard Minos' small talk, the two young women stood for a moment in that courtyard until finally, Abby began to undress, just keeping her underwear on.

Soon after, seeing that her competitor wouldn't leave this place and let her enjoy the night alone with Minos, Ruth frowned and then did the same as Abby.

'It's a surprise that you decided to do this... It looks like you're not as weak as I imagined!' After thinking about it, Ruth immediately stepped into that big bathtub.

...

"And that's how I left the Flaming Empire and came here." Ruth finished explaining to Minos and Abby her most recent experiences during her trip from the Gray Clouds Sect's hometown to the Dry City.

A few minutes had passed since the three of them had joined there. In these moments, despite the initial coolness that the two had when talking to each other, the conversation had grown softer and softer because of the constant intrusion of Minos. The two had even asked questions to each other!

While they were talking, the two of them were sitting on either side of Minos, being hugged by him, at which point they were both without their bras.

This young man had slowly come to this point with the two of them, after slowly showing them that it was okay for them to stand like this in front of each other. After all, it was pretty standard for women to see themselves that way.

Hell, it wouldn't be hard for both of these girls to have seen more boobs than young Stuart!

And that way, Minos was peacefully enjoying this bath with two beauties in his arms.

"Speaking of the Gray Clouds Sect, did you ever meet anyone by the name Mona Miller there?" Abby asked Ruth, curious to find out more about her friend status.

Abby hadn't exchanged letters with Mona for over two years. Because of that, her curiosity about her best friend had only increased during this period.

Hearing such a question, Ruth looked at Abby for a moment and then answered. "Yes, I know her. We can be considered friends. So, why do you want to know?"

"Friends, huh? Mona is my friend, and I am curious to understand how she is doing. Can you tell me about this?"

"Hmm, well, Mona's situation is like that of any disciple who enters the sect through the Spiritual Tournament. In other words, it's not easy..."

"As you can imagine, the fighting proficiency of the empire's youth is much higher than that of people from this region. Hence, naturally, there are some disadvantages."

"As a result, people like Mona often miss out on a great deal of opportunity for disciples originating from the empire." Ruth calmly explained as she had a crystal goblet containing a golden liquid in one of her hands.

"I see..." Abby muttered in a low voice. 'It's a shame she passed the Spiritual Tournament. Otherwise, she could be here in the Dry City.'

"But anyway, she's doing what she can and has already reached level 45…"
