In the blink of an eye, Thomas, who was smiling in satisfaction at what would happen in a few moments, saw his target suddenly disappear without being able to do anything about it!

“Uh?”

Immediately upon seeing young Stuart vanish from the battlefield, not just from in front of this person, but from that entire area, Thomas felt like he had tasted shit.

‘What the fuck is that?’

‘He vanished out of nowhere, which means he teleported a long way from here!’ He thought about it as his expression became uglier and uglier.

Although rare, it was not uncommon to find regional specialists with teleportation devices. But what Thomas had seen was impressive as he had not even noticed what Minos had done!

In one second young Stuart seemed ready to receive this king’s potent attack, and the next moment he had magically disappeared under Thomas’s disbelieving eyes!

That was very unusual!

After all, teleportation arrays or techniques always left specific signals that cultivators’ spiritual senses could detect.

But the mighty King Brown had not even realized this with a young man who was practically within his grasp.

No wonder he was shocked!

On the other hand, Thomas had thought that he would eliminate that threat after seeing that Minos appeared to have nothing to do in that previous situation.

Considering this expectation, he could not help but feel a deep sense of disappointment, lamenting with himself for missing such an opportunity.

“Damn it!”

But while he was frustrated with his failure, Emlyn and Angela wasted no time. They soon headed straight towards that specialist, trying to get him away from where he and Minos were earlier.

Whoosh!

Swooish!

The attacks of the two cut through the air in that area, rushing towards that target, who seemed a bit distracted at the moment.

However, Thomas was not distracted. As soon as he felt the attacks of those two coming towards him, he promptly put his disappointment aside. ‘Fuck!’

‘But since the coward found a way to run away, I will deal with these two!’ He pondered as he jumped away from that place from before, dodging the attacks of his enemies. ‘This beast is already almost exhausted…’

‘Then you will be the first to die!’

After thinking about it, his eyes narrowed as he finally returned to using the technique from before, which altered his hands.

He then looked at those two with hatred, determined to take his anger out on them.

“He abandoned you, but I won’t take it lightly just for that!”

Zum!

However, as he began to act against those two, the space around the same area where Minos had previously disappeared vibrated rapidly until this young man appeared in the same place as before.

But he was not as defenseless as his previous position!

After returning from his quick trip to the Spatial Kingdom, Minos had appeared in that spot with a defensive stance, already with his techniques activated, ready to attack.

“What?” King Brown shouted in surprise, shocked to see this person on the battlefield.

However, he did not have much time to stand around admiring Minos’ arrival. As soon as this young man had returned, he had made a sword movement in the direction of that enemy!

Spatial Sword!

Then a long blade of spiritual energy cut through the air towards Thomas, seeking that man’s chest.

‘Miserable! How did he do that?’

“Ahhhhhh!” He cried out in pain just after receiving Minos’ attack, which this time had caught him almost entirely by surprise.

That is, he had seen it, but it had all happened so quickly and so unexpectedly that this king had barely been able to activate his defenses!

Consequently, being attacked by Minos’ merciless movement, Thomas could not escape unharmed from such an attack!

And in that instant, young Stuart finally calmed his heart as he went back to absorbing the energies of the enemies, realizing that nothing had changed during his seconds out.

He knew that Angela and Emlyn would waste no time seeing the previous situation, clearing the area to which he should return. That was why he had come back here, even though he did not know if it was safe.

But in a few seconds, a lot could happen. As such, this young man could not help but worry about his comrades.

Therefore, he had felt relieved to see that nothing had happened.

On the other hand, Angela and Emlyn were also relieved to see that he had returned quickly enough to continue fighting alongside them.

Fighting a powerful level 59 Spiritual King was not easy, after all!

Anyway, upon noticing Minos’ return, it did not take long for those two to return to their previous formation, trying to surround that enemy again.

And while they were doing that, Thomas was feeling the shallow cut on his chest burning, but what bothered him most at the moment was young Stuart. ‘That damn bastard…’

‘Is that an innate ability?’ He wondered, trying to understand how Minos could teleport without him feeling spiritual fluctuations.

Unfortunately for Thomas, he would never understand that. After all, the Spatial Kingdom ring was not something for a mere level 59 cultivator to understand.

Hell, even the sect master of the Gray Clouds Sect, someone close to level 80, had barely been able to feel the power of that ring at that time when he had met with Minos. So, it was tough for this king to feel anything.

Consequently, Thomas could not feel that item’s fluctuations, nor the teleportation, since he was too weak for such!

‘Anyway, it seems I should be more careful when fighting that bastard!’ Thomas convinced himself before finally returning to the fight against those three.

Swooish!

Boom!

…

Boom!

“Au! Au!” Emlyn barked at her opponent, feeling more and more pressured, her muscles getting heavier and heavier by the moment.

As Thomas had lost the advantage he thought he had gained earlier, he had resolved to weaken this beast as much as possible. Only then would he attempt something more daring against Minos.

And his actions had quickly achieved results!

Within less than a minute of Minos’ return from the Spatial Kingdom, Emlyn was running erratically through that area, constantly sticking her large tongue out of her mouth, breathing vigorously.

But she still had enough energy left to make one more leap!

“Au! Au!” She disappointedly barked as she jumped with great speed toward Minos.

“What’s happening?”

While King Brown was trying to understand the strangeness of the Dry City group, many ice spears were coming toward him, giving him no time to attack.

“Go rest!”

Zum!

Then Emlyn vanished from the battlefield while King Brown spat out a mouthful of blood as he saw that teleportation happening once again in front of him.

‘Damn! That must be some awe-inspiring ability!’ He pondered with wide eyes, sensing that Minos had not yet demonstrated his full power.

‘That brat is trying to kill me!’

‘Damn it!’

‘If he can run away whenever he wants, then there’s no point in my staying in this place!’ He thought about it dejectedly, more and more convinced that it would be impossible for him to kill Minos in the current situation.

“Hell!” He cried out disappointingly, making many people in the surrounding area realize that his situation was not so good.

“It looks like King Brown lost that battle today…” The Snow family representative said in a low voice.

“Yes, it looks like the worst for us has happened… Our families will have to get involved.”

“Yes, you are right…” The Stone family representative internally laughed as he said that.

But soon, they looked in the direction from where the representative of House Cromwell had fallen earlier, where no one else was around.

That individual had been injured by Minos’ blow and suffered at the cost of his sacrificial technique. As such, he would not be able to do anything else here, not even try to harm that member of the Snow family.

That’s why he was already running away!

“Looks like that guy got away…”

“Humph!”

“Well done! He acted arrogantly and deserved what happened to him!” The Snow family member commented.

Hearing that, Kara and Ford’s family member could not help but agree. “In fact, even if we all got into that battle, that young man could just teleport away…”

“That could quickly become a tool against ourselves!”

“In any case, it looks like the time for retreat is coming.”
