After the battle with the high-level Spiritual Saints of the Gray Clouds Sect, Minos made his way to the sect's headquarters. At the same time, the subordinates of the 15 individuals who had 'fought' went to help them.

The many observers who had followed this battle stood watching in his direction, feeling reverence for this level 70 person who had achieved such combat prowess.

One of them was the large level 76 beast that was already flying behind Minos, heading for that large area of the sect, with many spaces for a creature of its size.

"Master, what are we going to do now?" He asked Minos.

"I will stay here for the next few days to settle some matters I have in this place, and then I will travel to the capital of this state." He said, flying beside that dark green leather creature.

Meanwhile, the patriarch of the Terry family and two other level 78 elders looked at Minos with impressed looks, remembering how this young man had introduced himself to them years ago.

"He did what he said he could do after reaching the 8th stage." One of them said, sighing for not taking that young man's words seriously at the time but satisfied with where he was.

With Minos there, soon, some of their weaker ones could go to the Black Plain with the shift change that Emperor Stuart would soon make.

Several of the Spiritual Saints in the Spatial Kingdom could be used for the exchange that Minos had negotiated with the imperial family. Then another batch of experts in that post could be sent to the Black Plain in the coming days.

At the same time, while Minos was in the Flaming Empire, the strongest, who had not yet gone to the Black Plain Empire and could not leave now, could at least get to know such a region of space.

As such, even Patriarch Terry, who would have to wait for someone level 78 Spiritual Saint to return from the Black Plain before he could leave, was eager to recover from his injuries and go to the Spatial Kingdom.

"Let's soon return to headquarters. The sooner we recover from our injuries, the sooner we can enjoy some of the Cultivation Sanctuary!"

Thus, the Spiritual Saints of this organization, those who knew about the Spatial Kingdom in this post, left a few minutes after Minos went to that central area of the sect.

Meanwhile, the few remaining observers in the area, slowly leaving the area, were going to report what they had seen to their respective leaders!

...

Two days later...

Upon settling into the headquarters of the Gray Clouds Sect, Minos had attended a few festive occasions in the noble families of that organization, having met the elders he had yet to meet.

After the start of that sect's operations in the Black Plain Empire, Minos had made that organization cut back as much as possible on activities unrelated to his focus, his state.

Because of this, people from this organization, previously in service around the empire and even other states, had returned to the sect's territory or were in the Black Plain.

With that, those elders that were left for Minos to meet were over there, and all of them did not miss the opportunity to greet him and wish Emperor Stuart good and long-ago rule.

As he finished getting to know the core of this organization, Minos continued his work as its leader directly from this place, continuing with the sale of properties and rights that the sect had in the empire.

As in any state, every power with sovereignty over populations and territories had exploitation rights assigned by the sovereign.

In ordinary times, these rights were competed for by every kind of power with the capacity to absorb them and bear the brunt of necessary investments.

But since Minos did not want a Grey Clouds Sect that was too 'heavy' but rather free of commitments not connected to the Black Plain Empire, he was selling those rights and responsibilities of that organization.

That was not a quick and easy job, so even considering the months since he had started, there was much left to be disengaged from the sect, and he was continuing his work relative to that.

While doing this work, he found time to bring from the Spatial Kingdom three elders who had advanced after months by his side. With these individuals, he picked up several lower-level experts and brought them to that region of space, who would stay with him until he returned to the Black Plain.

On the other hand, those high-level elders who could not yet leave for the state of Minos, but had already recovered from the injuries of the previous battle, had the chance to get to know this place.

They were already there, cultivating and training their techniques more out of curiosity since Minos would be leaving soon, and the benefits they could have in this period would be almost nil.

Anyway, in the midst of this, important people from different parts of the Flaming Empire began to arrive at the 'core' of the Grey Clouds Sect.

News was flying fast in this state, so in the blink of an eye, all the leaders of the most important organizations were already aware of Minos' presence in the empire and his previous training!

...

In the main building of the Grey Clouds Sect, Minos was in a large hall typically used by elders to receive high-profile visitors, where they could have a less formal environment to have conversations.

There, Minos was standing next to the level 79 elder who was representing him earlier and several sect guards while the visitors were in the surrounding area.

Among the visitors, the patriarchs of more than 30 noble families of this state and the masters of 11 sects were there, including three masters of three of the eight great sects of the Flaming Empire.

Everyone had heard how strong Minos had become, and upon hearing that he was in Clouds City, they rushed to try to talk to this fellow but also to do business.

Even if he was not powerful, Minos had many things that these people wanted. But he was a cultivation monster, and so it was even more imperative for these people to establish relations with him.

So they were standing around, talking to each other around the various tables in that area. At the same time, little by little, Minos and the elder of the Coleman family approached them.

Minos came to the side of the table where some members of the Holy Sect were with their sect master, and Maisie's former rival, Sibley, was standing next to her daughter.

Naomi had been arrested weeks ago in Vogel, but her sect had already negotiated her release. After that, when she found out that Minos was in this place, this level 70 woman made it a point to come to this place at her mother's side.

"Minos, I can't believe what you put me through!" She said before her sect master even said anything. "Do you know how many days I was in the hands of those people? Gee, I thought we were friends."

The people around her table looked at her strangely while the sect master coughed.

"Cough! Cough!"

Minos laughed and said. "Don't take this the wrong way, but that day, we were opponents."

"Not today."
