The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2538 Friendly Warning

In the blink of an eye, another 11 months have passed by.

In the meantime, the level 112, 113, and 114 Sovereigns of Minos' faction engaged in various high-level missions to collect merit points, keeping themselves busy while Minos and his family stayed at the headquarters.

Whether Jade Chainsaws would use a Supreme specialist against them, the group had no way of knowing. The hypothesis raised by Sender was not invalid, but it was very difficult to realize. Paying a Supreme being wouldn't come cheap, even if they were willing to do it. Determined to counterattack in any way he could, Minos had spent the last few months cultivating, saving as many merit points and resources as he could for a response to his opponents.

Meanwhile, more and more of his faction members were getting stronger!

...

In Minos' faction cave, Rhett, who had just been promoted in level, came to his boss this morning with a deep look on his face, feeling the gravity of the information he had just received.

"Maximilian sent us something," Rhett said as he caught the man's eye as Minos exchanged blows with Kendrick, causing father and son to suddenly slow the pace of the fight to look at this alien seriously.

Maximillian hadn't sent them any news in months. If the man had to move now, it had to be due to something worrisome!

"What is it?" Minos stopped moving as he looked at his former guild supervisor with curiosity.

Grisdi, who was also there to wait for Kendrick, frowned as she looked at the Intermediate Officer at the entrance to the cave.

Rhett didn't hide it and went straight to the point. "The theory raised by Sender is more real than we imagined. A newly promoted Supreme is due to arrive in the city within the next six months. He's supposed to be at the end of his current seclusion and will come straight here to do business. The Jade Chainsaws will try to hire him to act against us."

Saying a Supreme being had recently advanced was not a sign of time, but of their cultivation. A newly ascended cultivator was not someone who had ascended a few days ago, but rather someone who was at the very beginning of their new level.

Advancing one level meant the person's strength had increased. But in certain cases, it would take time for that improvement to be fully merged and stabilized. In such instances, stating that someone had recently attained the position of Supreme or Sovereign was essentially acknowledging that they required additional time to solidify their position at that level.

This was not a sign of weakness. While individuals lacking experience may struggle to compete with more seasoned peers at the same level, it does not imply that they are inherently weak once they make progress.

Minos, Kendrick, and Grisdi became a few levels more solemn, their looks visibly irritated.

"This is terrible." Kendrick looked at his father, his heart already pounding in his chest.

"Indeed, it is. However, it's not the end of the world," Minos murmured, gently placing a hand on his chin. "In fact, this could be an opportunity."

"What does the Senior have in mind?" Grisdi asked, approaching Minos and Kendrick.

"If this Supreme is a mercenary, he can be bought," Minos thought, his expression changing to show his intentions.

"Do you want to use this Supreme's greed against Jade Chainsaws?" Rhett asked Minos.

"Why not? Our Qilnats and resources are just as valuable as those of the Jade Chainsaws. I believe I possess a greater abundance of resources compared to them. If they're willing to involve a Supreme, then I see no problem with me doing the same."

The guild strictly forbid members to involve outsiders in its internal disputes. If anyone found out about it, Minos would be in serious trouble.

Rhett sighed at the thought of the risks, but he couldn't go against Minos' decision. This was indeed their alternative if they didn't want to face a bloody Supreme!

"How are we going to do that? It's not like we know this Supreme. All it takes is for our enemies to get to him before we do, and we'll lose our chance." Kendrick pondered the problem.

"I'm not leaving the guild until this expert arrives in the city. In the meantime, we'll have some of our faction members monitor the movements in and out of the city, as well as the members of the Jade Chainsaws' movements.

Let's keep an eye out for the arrival of this Supreme. As soon as he arrives in the city, I want a group of us to approach him with a proposal that wins what the Jade Chainsaws have to offer."

Minos clenched his fists, not caring about the risks or costs.

Minos was determined to avoid having a Supreme as his enemy. If he could somehow thwart the enemy's plans and bring a swift resolution to the entire situation, it might be the final significant issue he would deal with before departing for the seraphim world!

As soon as he had decided, Minos left to meet with some of his allies, while Rhett set off to send orders to the other members of the faction to prepare or even move.

Some would have to position themselves in Examire, while others would have to prepare to accompany Minos outside the guild after these months, in case his plans went awry, and he had to take his chances.

Kendrick and Grisdi followed together, also to help in some way.

...

While the group was preparing to use Maximillian's warning to their advantage, the most important members of the Jade Chainsaws had received news from those they had hired to deal with Minos.

"Senior Tiolos has completed his seclusion. He should be in Examire in 70 days." Said the man who had just returned to the guild after meeting with their mercenaries in Examire.

Upon hearing this news, the faction leader smiled, showing his many teeth as he imagined himself closer than ever to dealing with his enemy.

In nearly four and a half years, Minos had caused Jade Chainsaws a lot of trouble. But with a level 115 coming to Examire, willing to accept payment for assassination, the men gathered today couldn't help but look to the future with optimism.

'I want to see what you can use against us now!' The leader of the group couldn't wait for Tiolos to arrive in the city.

"Good! Prepare the faction's resources. Let's pay in advance and make a deal with Senior Tiolos!"
