Chapter 988 Outnumbered


    While Minos and Abby were jointly fighting those two enemies of theirs, Oriel and Warner were finally approaching the battle site, where they wanted to watch that young man battle.


    They were both very curious to see Minos in action, and as soon as they had noticed the departure of this young man''s group, they had flown side by side to this ce.


    Unfortunately for both of them, they were a little slower than Maida and had already missed the beginning of the fight.


    However, this was by no means the worst point for these two.


    When they were getting close enough to the battle to feel the fluctuations of those involved in the fight, they both suddenly felt tremendous pressure on their bodies.


    As they felt this, they both looked at each other in shock, but then remembered the people in the surroundings and soon understood what was happening.


    "Why are you doing this?" Warner asked Maisie, assuming she was the person who was pressuring them not to move on.


    After all, she was the only one in the vicinity with cultivation high enough to pressure the two of them. And even if neither of them was seeing her now, they would not absurdly think that there was another high-level Spiritual Emperor nearby.


    That was the northern region of the Central Continent, not the ming Empire!


    Oriel then looked at the surroundings, trying to glimpse Minos'' battle. Still, suddenly the clouds in their surroundings became denser,promising their visibility.


    Daytime Storm!


    "Maisie! What are you doing? Why are you attacking us?" The Edwardstone family representative shouted in fear, feeling the powerful technique characteristic of the Gray Clouds Sect.


    "Go away!"


    "You are not qualified to see this battle!" The sweet voice of Minos'' mother sounded in the surroundings as if she were in more than one ce simultaneously.


    "What?"


    "You want to prevent us from watching this fight? Why?" Oriel asked in surprise, not understanding such a woman''s motivation.


    What harm would it do for them to watch a junior''s battle? They would at most learn about yet another talent, something they had seen plenty of in their lives.


    Why bother with this?


    However, Maisie was no fool and would not allow these people to watch Minos'' battle for free. ''Humph!''


    ''Minos is using several high-level techniques. And you expect me to let parasites like you watch him for free?'' She thought about this as she stood next to Ruth on her spiritual beast.


    "Warner and you, stranger, get out of here, or I will act against you."


    "Don''t think I''m not capable of beating you until your faces are in a way that even your mothers won''t be able to recognize you!" She menacingly said as the temperature in the surroundings suddenly dropped.


    "Tsk!" Warner clenched his fists in frustration, having no choice but to retreat.


    ''Damn it!''


    ''That woman is serious!'' He thought about it as he felt water droplets in the surroundings freezing, a sign of that famous technique of the Grey Clouds Sect.


    As for Oriel, he did not know the capabilities of the ming Empire cultivators, but he understood thenguage of cultivation very well.


    Maisie was much stronger than them, and her position did not emit any hesitation. Sensing this, this man from the Western Empire was unwilling to take a chance on this ce for a mere level 53 junior.


    "Sigh..."


    "See you next time, cultivators of the ming Empire!" He said his goodbyes before returning to where Luke wasing on his spiritual beast.


    ...


    As the previous drama was breaking down with the departure of those two powerful Spiritual Emperors, Minos'' reinforcements finally arrived in that area.


    However, this time Maisie did not bother to stop the two Spiritual Emperors who were traveling alongside Jade Carline''s group.


    No, the situation of those Spiritual Emperors was utterly different from those other two individuals.


    After all, while those people in Jade''s or Thomas'' group were from this region and did not have the necessary skills to understand Minos'' techniques, the other two were different.


    Oriel, Maisie did not know, so she simply acted carefully with him. But Warner, well, this man was definitely capable of understanding Minos'' techniques since the Edwarstone family had two Golden-grade techniques!


    And even if he was unlikely to have something like that, the chances that he had never seen techniques like that in use were pretty slim.


    That was why Maisie had stopped them from getting any closer to the site of her son''s fight.


    Golden-grade techniques were enough for even the Emperor, a Spiritual Sage, to leave his pce to hunt!


    Knowing this, Maisie could not allow such people to find out about Minos'' secrets!


    In any case, it did not take long for Jade''s people to get close to where four people and a beast were fighting with everything they had.


    At that ce, a gigantic ck ring was spinning in the air around the two Spiritual Emperors, while sweat dripped from their faces as if they were melting.


    At the same time, Minos and Abby were on the back of a ck-haired Winged Tiger, constantly shifting positions, while mirrors swirled around them, protecting them.


    Abby appeared pale on Maida''s back as Minos stood by her side. Meanwhile, he was constantly countering the opponent''s blows and sometimes using his mental technique to put them under pressure.


    However, although Minos could already deal with a level 61 Spiritual Emperor with some ease in ordinary situations, the current situation was not normal at all.


    He had already expended too much of his energy to deal with most of that group. He was also unable to absorb energy as efficiently from those two as he could from peak Spiritual Kings.


    Because of this, Minos was getting weaker and weaker in this battle, rather than maintaining his condition as he had usually been doing in his fights in recent months.


    However, as hard as things were for him and Abby, the situation for the other two was not good either.


    They had already been affected mentally by Minos'' technique and lost much of their energy to the Devouring Art and their own techniques.


    With that, when they saw the arrival of Minos'' reinforcements, they almost went crazy with hatred seeing the people who should have been their allies until some days ago.


    "Oh?"


    "Looks like we made it in time!" Jade said in satisfaction, feeling joy at seeing young Stuart alive and well.


    And realizing he had endured fighting two Spiritual Emperors and still eliminating a third, she could not help but feel a particr pride in her rtionship with him.


    In fact, every millimeter of her body was ''screaming'' that her rtionship with this superior man was more than right.


    That was something she had to do!


    "Carlines..." yton said this amidst his gasping breath.


    "Are you truly going to take that demon''s orders? There is still time to repair your mistakes!"


    "Join us to eliminate this nuisance!"


    But Jade did not like to hear this and ordered. "Don''t listen to these weaklings!"


    "Minos is already our leader, and we have to help him deal with those vermin!"


    After hearing that, the two Spiritual Emperors of her group nodded in agreement.


    Neither of them was here because they had differences with Minos.


    No, they genuinely did not care about this fellow. They just wanted their families'' patronage, something promised by the regional forces to attract their descendants in this challenging time.


    And since it would also be no advantage to stand against the son of someone who could soon be a Spiritual Saint, these two were more than happy to follow Jade''s orders!


    "Your Majesty, rest assured. These two will not breathe for much longer!" One of them said this as he jumped off the back of his mount and flew in the direction of where Minos'' party was standing.


    On the other hand, as the second Spiritual Emperor joined the battle, Minos shouted in Jade''s direction, "The rest of you, get down and see what happened to the people I knocked down!"


    "If anyone survived, don''t hesitate to execute them!"


    Gulp!


    The peak Spiritual Kings of the Carline family looked down, barely able to see the ground below them.


    ''Anyone survives that? Impossible!'' One of them thought of this as he felt a chill run down his spine.


    However, none of them tried to debate with Minos, and soon Jade''s group left that area and made their way to the ground below young Stuart''s team.


    ...
