Upon hearing Samuel's question, Vivian was also curious to know about the origin of that person. Such power was not standard, and her brother had already come across 'another' person who used similar techniques, which she had seen a few hours ago. Such a coincidence was not small, and this young woman could not help but imagine the colossus that lay behind those two young men. Maybe she could start a mutually beneficial relationship, allying the Hayes family with this mysterious organization... She then shook her head vertically and said. "This might be a good idea, but let's wait until Grace's problem is resolved." "OK." ... As Vivian and Samuel crossed that forest they were passing through, in another part of the Cromwell Kingdom, another group of people was quickly moving away from that Chambers' base as they traveled east. In this group, there were three people, and one of them was the young man who had changed sides in the middle of the battle, Ross Willis, a nobleman from the Cromwell Kingdom, a level 45 cultivator. Besides him, the other two people who were at his side, one was his bodyguard, who had survived the previous battle, and the other was a representative of another family, who had participated in the slave auction. This person had lost his bodyguard at the start of the fight against young Kevin's forces, but he had changed sides in the end, as he didn't think he had better chances. In the end, he survived, and as he knew young Ross well, they had teamed up shortly after realizing Minos' forces were not pursuing them. Anyway, the three had horrible looks, either because of the wounds and bloodstains on their bodies or because the three were utterly frustrated by what had happened. These three people had worked so hard, but in the end, they not only didn't gain anything, but they also ended up losing. To begin with, this representative had lost his bodyguard and a grade-2, low-level spiritual weapon. And finally, after taking all the risk, by breaking into a base of a vengeful power like the Chambers family, he had had no gain! Even if they had switched sides in the middle of the battle, no one would have cared about it. The Chambers would see them as enemies anyway, even more so after Kevin had died at the enemy's hands. Of course, they knew they would be chased by the Chambers when they entered that base, even though they changed sides towards the end. However, if they had gotten the Spring of Life that Vivian now had, and Kevin was still alive, everything would be different. Obviously, they would still be hated by the Chambers, but they might have the opportunity to win the favor of the ancestor who drank the Spring of Life! And it was worth all the risk, or rather, they had done it because of this chance! Anyway, Ross and the other two were walking through a forest when suddenly this young man punched a tree hard, making it shake vigorously. "Shit!" 'That bastard screwed it up!' He thought to himself, remembering Minos' strength. "Cade, we're going to order an investigation into that group when we get to our family headquarters. One day I'll get revenge on that bastard!" "OK. Surely there must be some record of an organization with such strong individuals, even if it's just some basic information!" Ross' bodyguard said confidently. And listening to these two conversations, the other man had similar thoughts, but he didn't think it would be easy to find those people. 'None of them carried any identifying items, such as symbols or typical clothing. They hid very well...' "Aside from that person who destroyed the defensive barrier, all the other people only used techniques commonly seen in our region... It won't be easy to find information on the techniques of a single person!" He muttered to himself at the same time as he saw the dense woods in front of him. Some techniques were widespread in the north of the Central Continent. That's because each technique had multiple copies, so there were many different people with those copies. But not only that, when dying after a battle, the loser's items were often picked up by the winner. With that, those copies of techniques from noble families had already spread across the continent a long time ago, as deaths were common in the cultivation world, and there was a very long history for these powers. In this way, it was effortless for this man to see that the Minos' soldiers' techniques were not uncommon in this region. However, Minos' techniques were unique, and perhaps there were not many records of them. "Ahh, never mind, if there's anything, Ross will certainly cause trouble for that guy. I don't need to worry about such a thing!" After a while, Ross finally told the other two men. "Well, now we have to hide inside our families. Try not to interact with the Chambers in the short term, nor should we leave our territories!" "Hmm, that seems to be the only option... At least in our families, it will be harder for the Chambers to hit us!" The representative immediately agreed. ... At the same time, as Ross's group was thinking about how to find out information about the origin of Minos and his soldiers, the young Stuart's group had already crossed more than 200 kilometers, having passed a few hours since the end of the attack. The more than 20 carriages were filled with people, except for Minos' one, as the group traveled moderately to the Black Plain. The beasts that pulled those carriages were only at 3rd stage of cultivation, having no breath to withstand a long trip at high speed. Then, from time to time, they had to stop, or at least slowdown, so they could keep traveling. As for Emlyn, even before leaving that base, Minos had already sent her to the Spatial Kingdom so that the group would not draw too much attention wherever they went. As much as they were not in the middle of urbanization or a busy road, it was not good to take risks when there was no need for it. There was always the possibility that someone could feel something through the spiritual sense, which could cause problems. After all, it was unusual for Spiritual Kings to travel in groups like young Stuart's! Anyway, Minos was talking to Abby right now while she had a glass of red wine in her hand. This was a wine made in the Dry City, and even though it wasn't the most pleasant of drinks, due to the low level of local cuisine, it was still rich in spiritual energy. Abby then asked her friend. "Do you think the Chambers family will find out what happened quickly?" Minos then shook his head and responded. "No, we destroyed all the clues in that place. So, the only way for them to find out is through the people who fled there. But these people are in the same situation as us. They don't want to be found out!" "Young Minos is right, Ms. Abby. It may take years for them to understand what happened there, even if they manage to capture one of the people who saw what happened…" Eda supported Minos' speech. "Hmm, it seems so... But anyway, you did really well back there, you even managed to fight someone at level 51, even before that fox showed up, impressive!" Abby praised him, looking into Minos' eyes, a little embarrassed. She had fought some of the guards at that base, but nothing as significant as Minos and Jamie's fight. She had only defeated three guards that were at level 45, which was what she could handle at the moment. As for Eda, she had fought a lot more than Abby, as there were several cultivators above level 47 in that place, even more so after the turnaround that happened at the end of the fight! But she had been fine, having just expended a lot of her spiritual energy. The fight had been focused between the people who wanted the Spring of Life, the forces of Kevin and Minos. Because of this, the two women of the Miller family hadn't gone through as much trouble as everyone else in the place. "Haha, when you join my force, you will have opportunities to improve your fighting proficiency too…" He said with a smile on his face. Hearing this, Abby just ignored him and asked. "By the way, what about that spiritual beast? Where did it come from? Where is it now?"
