The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 666 - Failure And Agreement Confirmed

After hearing the words of King Brown and seeing him leave that hall, the two leading members of the Silva family could not help but feel a deep sense of loss.

Although they had done everything they could to identify those involved and bring the proper evidence needed for the royal family to act, it had all been meaningless.

And without the royal family getting involved against Dry City, it would be almost impossible for them to invade that place. As such, this refusal by the king had been a big step backward in their plans!

"Patriarch, supreme elder, what will you do now?" General Silva asked simultaneously as the rest of the people there departed, and this man directed his two fellow family members to the exit.

As they started walking towards the exit of that place, Otis and Adrian had completely dark faces, while their moods were not good at all.

But soon, one of them answered the question of this General of the royal guard. "Sigh... For now, we can only pause our plans, at least for the moment, just as King Brown advised us..." Otis Silva commented in a low voice.

"Hmm, that's probably the best thing to do." General Silva agreed.

"However, as much as we cannot try risky things on the Black Plain, perhaps there is room for us to act in other locations..."

"What do you mean, supreme elder?"

"There is that question with the Gill family..." Adrian began to speak as their group walked towards the exit of that royal palace. "Since we are not going to act immediately against the forces on the Black Plain, we can focus our attention on the Gill family."

"On the other hand, we have to be quite careful with House Miller in this period. Once the news that some of our Spiritual Kings have fallen on the Black Plain reaches their headquarters, we may have to deal with their pressure as well."

Otis then nodded in agreement. "That's true..."

"In fact, we should continue to watch the Millers' actions. Although we haven't found out anything about them getting involved with the Black Plain, that doesn't mean they aren't in collaboration with the Gill family and that damn place."

The Silva family had thoroughly investigated Abby's family. However, they had found nothing to indicate the Millers' involvement with the Black Plain. Yet, they had also found nothing that denied possible contacts.

Some Miller family Spiritual Kings had secretly left that organization's headquarters, so none of the Silva family spies knew about it until it was too late.

Hence, although they didn't know whether or not this was related to the Black Plain, it was a fact that they couldn't say anything about it.

The possibility existed, and as such, they were not entirely convinced of the non-involvement of this rival organization of theirs with these mysterious enemies in Dry City.

But all this was to be expected. After all, by the time Minos had visited Abby's family, he had done so quickly and had not left his name behind.

In fact, only Abby's parents and the high-ranking elders of that family knew of this young man's identity during that trip. But these people would not go around talking about it.

It was their necks that would be on the line if anyone found out about their plans with Minos!

As for the other people who had come into contact with Minos, none of them knew his name, and for all intents and purposes, he was just Abby's boyfriend, a talented youth who was already at level 49. Beyond that, there was nothing special about him.

On the other hand, all the relations that Minos' territory had with the Miller family after that agreement between the parties was confirmed had been done through Yellow City.

Even if someone figured out the outflow of people or resources from that family to the Black Plain, all they would find out would be things and people going to the Kingdom of the Waves.

Abby's experienced merchant family had many contacts in that state. So, it was effortless for them to put the products or people going to Dry City in the middle of legitimate business going to that kingdom.

With that, the stop in Yellow City was nothing more than a moment of rest.

Consequently, the spies of the Silva family had discovered nothing regarding this relationship of the House Miller with the Black Plain Army.

"Anyway, let's go..."

"All I can do now is focus on reaching level 58." Otis commented to those two right after sighing in defeat.

Upon hearing such a thing, General Silva then asked in surprise. "Oh? Aren't you far from that?"

"I'm almost there. Maybe I will get there in the next six months... Let's see how things develop."

After that, it wasn't long before the group broke up.

...

While the Silva family was doing what they could to continue with some of their plans, Minos traveled through the Black Plain lifeless terrain on the back of a great white eagle.

After about two months since he had reached the 6th stage of cultivation, this young man had done many essential things for his city and army. Among them were the negotiations with Vivian and the Hayes family.

And at this moment, he was just back from the Cromwell Kingdom, where he had just finalized the agreement with Vivian's family!

After these two months since the two had met in Dry City, Vivian had quickly made her way to Primrose, her family's headquarters. There, she had communicated to her elders about the agreement Minos wanted to make with them.

And since this organization had nothing to lose by allying with Minos, on the contrary, they could gain several things; they had readily accepted this young man's conditions.

With that, after a few trips, both from Minos to the Cromwell Kingdom and from some of the elders of that family to the City of Waters, the parties involved had finished signing the Soul Contracts.

Minos had taken long trips for the first time since his last occasion with Abby in the Kingdom of the Waves. But this had a good reason. After all, the Hayes family was at war with the Chambers family!

It would have been challenging for this agreement to have been confirmed if it depended on the high-level elders of that organization leaving their territories to negotiate with Minos. Therefore, this young man had traveled to this kingdom to settle this matter quickly.

The Hayes family elders were subdivided into various parts of that organization's territory. Because of this, he had visited more than one place during that time. But luckily, White was already at level 46 and could cross this state from one place to another in less than two weeks.

So, in the two weeks or so that had passed, this young man had done this up until today when he had finished signing the last of the agreements with the elders of that family.

As such, he was returning to his city at this time, along with Vivian and Grace.

One of them was part of that agreement, as she was occupying one of the five slots that the Hayes family had obtained in the deal with Minos. As for the other, she was naturally here to accompany her girlfriend on this journey since she would not let Vivian stay away from her for so long.

As such, Grace was here with Vivian, going to live in Dry City for the next 12 months that that woman from the Hayes family would have to stay in this place. Only after that could Vivan return home and let another member of her family take advantage of this opportunity.

"Minos, about what we talked about before, can you help me with that?" Vivian asked in a low voice, speaking next to this young man's right ear as she sat behind him.

Upon hearing such a thing, Minos smiled and said. "It's not impossible, but she will have...."
