Chapter 243: Escape!

While Kevin yelled in pain, being beaten by a mob of slaves, every guard of the Chambers family had already perished in that place.

Fighting against the Black Plain Army's soldiers, who had better techniques and knew how to fight as a team, was undoubtedly a challenge for those people.

It must be said that the Spiritual World was heavily influenced by individualism.

The people of this world highly valued their individual strength and, in many cases, neglected their collective potential. After all, this was the world of the strong and the one with the most significant power led!

That's why ordinary people who had that mentality ended up having a difficult time when they had to face well-connected groups, as was the case with the young Stuart's subordinates.

And with the assistance of the Nine-tailed Fox that Minos had brought in at the end of the fight, the situation of those people had only worsened...

Thus, even though it had been a balanced battle for those soldiers, the Chambers family's guards had still fallen in the end!

The only person left besides Kevin was his bodyguard, Clive, who was now kneeling on the floor of that place, calmly looking in the direction of his young master. There was nothing to do, the enemies were powerful, and he was about to be killed by Samuel, Vivian's bodyguard.

Clive had utterly run out of spiritual energy due to the fact that he had protected Kevin at the start of the fight when they had not yet attracted the attention of some of those pursuers.

Hence, when fighting Samuel, someone who had the same proficiency as him, Clive could not hold the tie due to his initial disadvantage.

"Ahhh!"

As he looked out over the crowd that was mutilating the now crippled Kevin, who screamed in pain in these final moments of life, Clive sighed briefly, looking up at the starry sky. "Ahh, this is the end of me... I can finally rest."

Clive then closed his eyes and felt the last breath of air on his face as Samuel finally decapitated him. The man's headless body then slowly fell to the ground while blood gushed from the bodyguard's neck.

A moment later, the head that had spun in the air twice dropped to the ground not far from the rest of the body, with a calm countenance, as if Clive had not cared at all about his end.

'Looks like you died in peace... What a different guy.' Samuel thought to himself as he saw his enemy's face.

Anyway, after Clive's death, there was no longer anyone else who had accompanied Kevin on this trip, not even the guards at this base. Only Minos' soldiers and the pursuers of the Spring of Life were in that place, along with those slaves, of course.

And those individuals who had switched sides in the middle of the fight were now all terrified of the outcome of this situation. Many of them had not realized Jamie's death in time.

When they least expected it, Minos was already on top of Kevin, destroying this young man's cultivation.

And no wonder, from Jamie's death to the moment Minos had destroyed Kevin's cultivation base, only a few seconds had passed, not even a full minute.

These people were engaged in high-level struggles and were unable to divert their attention for even a moment, which meant that most of them were unaware of the change in their situation.

However, even those who were still uneasy about the abrupt change in their circumstance immediately began fleeing from this location, using whatever strength they had left.

'Shit! I shouldn't have trusted that bastard! What a fool I was!' A representative of one of the noble families of the Cromwell Kingdom departed from that place, with his face red in shame, as he ran without looking back, as fast as he could.

"Hell! I missed my precious Spring of Life! Damn that person!" Ross muttered under his breath as he headed in a completely different direction from the other people who were fleeing this time.

...

And when noticing the escape of those more than ten people from that place, Abby, who was on top of one of the walls of that base, looked at Eda and asked. "Should we chase them?"

The experienced woman then shook her head in denial and said. "No, even though it's not good for these people to flee, we can't risk chasing them in our current conditions."

Eda was an experienced warrior who knew very well how difficult it would be to stop these people from fleeing. These individuals were all native to this region, which meant they had better knowledge of regional geography than the Minos' group.

On the other hand, those people were not stupid, as they went to different places, so they would not run away together, making things difficult for those who could chase them!

But not only that but Minos' team was also exhausted and certainly in no condition to start a chase right now. This would only put them more at risk, as there are spiritual beasts in this region that could get in their way and end up destroying them!

As for Emlyn, Eda was unsure of this fox's relationship with Minos, but she knew it would be impossible for this big fox to eliminate all the fleeing groups.

Surely Emlyn could take care of some of those people, but not all of them. With Emlyn being less than 100% and missing one of her paws, Kyla's mother could not possibly run fast enough to kill everyone before they escaped the perimeter where her sense could reach them.

For all that, Eda knew it was futile to pursue those people.

And even if they were not friends with Minos, who might even have bad intentions, it would also be very problematic for them to cause trouble for the Black Plain.

The entire group of Minos had hidden their identities all along, leaving no clues for these people. And even though Vivian could recognize the young Stuart's technique, many people often used techniques within the same family.

Consequently, with this information alone, they could not make a correlation between the Spiritual Tournament finalist and the person who commanded the invasion of this Chambers family's base!

Finally, after hearing Eda's opinion on the matter, Abby put aside her intention to chase those people when she returned her attention to where Minos was standing.

...

At this point, the group of pursuers that had changed sides during the fight had just disappeared over the horizon of that region when Kevin finally stopped breathing.

The young master of the Chambers family had died tragically, with several of his limbs mutilated, his male organ cut and stuffed into his own anus, while those people from before had skinned him.

And as they were about to leave those locations after killing that young man, the captives who had taken part in the lynching stopped beside one of Minos' soldiers and inquired. "Brother, where does your team come from?"

"I'm sorry we can't talk." the soldier replied calmly.

"But do you accept people like us into your ranks?" They insisted.

Several of these people could see that Minos' group did not intend to enslave them, as they had even been allowed to kill Kevin.

Not to mention the comment Minos had made earlier, which clearly demonstrated that he was against slavery. Then, some of these people were curious to know more about these people, who had given them another chance to live.

Some of them had nowhere to go, as they had already lost everything they had, family, friends, honor... Or they were too weak to take revenge on those who had destroyed their lives. Consequently, some of them had nowhere to go, not even a purpose of continuing living.

On the other hand, not all of them were willing to know the force behind this invasion. These wanted to live in freedom without being related to any power. Hence, some of them did not stay to hear more from Minos' group and were already running through the gate of that base.

The soldier then responded. "Hmm, that's possible. But you need to be a citizen of our city to apply for a position."

...

While those individuals, along with a few others who had regained their freedom, wanted information about the Dry City's group of soldiers, only five of the pursuers remained in this location.
