Seeing Minos coming towards them, the five pursuers left in this place were afraid of what might happen.

They were not afraid that this group of people would suddenly attack them as if they wanted to do something like that, then the five of them would already be trapped or dead by now.

The young Stuart's group was also quite tired from previous battles, so it would be no use fighting these pursuers.

Lastly, if the group coming from Dry City were not even chasing those who had betrayed the previous alliance, then the lives of these last pursuers would not be in danger.

It would not make sense. They had the same enemies and certainly would not want to draw the Chambers family's attention to their sides. So, it was in everyone's interest to keep the events of this place a secret.

However, that did not mean the Minos group would simply deliver the Spring of Life... They could still decide to keep this item, and so those five people could not do anything about it at this point.

And rightfully so, they had a feeling of nervousness deep in their beings!

Minos then stopped in front of the five people and watched them for a moment.

Vivian was severely hurt, but it did not look like anything serious that could put this young woman's life at risk. Her brown hair was awkwardly loose, almost making her lose the air of nobility that a lady like her usually had.

Her white skin was paled at this point, while her pretty beautiful face, with its thin curves, seemed to have been overshadowed by bloodstains and dirt.

On the other hand, for the four men who were there, Samuel was the one who seemed to be in the best condition, with only a few bruises on his arms and scratches on his armor.

As for the other three, the representative was the worst off, having lost a hand during the previous fight. In fact, he just had not died due to the fact that his own bodyguard had sacrificed himself for this representative...

Minos then noticed that those three men had symbols on their armor, distinct from each other. 'They must be from different families...'

And indeed, it was not uncommon for armor and even, in some instances, spiritual weapons to carry the symbol of some families. This was a tradition in the Spiritual World, in which people associated these powers with their official marks.

It was a pride for people who were part of these powers to carry the symbols of their families, which demonstrated the origins of that cultivator and his beliefs. Because of this, even though they were not required, still, many cultivators paid to put their respective family symbols on their spiritual items!

Minos then saw that Vivian and Samuel, whom he had previously met, had survived and were the largest single-family group in this place.

He then coughed a little and started talking as he had the bottle of Spring of Life in his right hand.

"Cough, ehh, as I said before, I'm not interested in this item.

"

Upon hearing this, the pupils of those five people abruptly contracted as they paid even more attention towards this person in the black blanket and mask.

"I can see that the five of you represent four different powers... In that case, I think the best thing to do here is to deliver the item to this young woman.

" He said as he waved in Vivian's direction.

Hearing this, the three men frowned and felt as if a bucket of cold water had been thrown on their backs. Minos had just pointed at Vivian, and now all their work was in vain.

Then, quickly, one of those men stepped forward and spoke in a protest while looking at Vivian.

"Lord, I'm afraid this isn't fair. We all fight for it!

"

"It's true. We should decide this otherwise!

" Another level 49 cultivator said, trying to support the previous one's line.

And hearing that, Vivian, who had been happy for a moment, then turned to those people, looking at them as if they were her mortal enemies.

How could she not be angry? Everything she had done was to save her friend's life, and now that she had it, these people were trying to bring her down!

However, before they could speak further, Minos explained his decision.

"Calm down, observe the situation in that you are. Each of you three belongs to different powers, while this young woman still has her bodyguard with her.

"

"If I give this item to one of you three, then I would bet that by dawn, at least two of you would be dead. And in the end, I think Miss Vivian would still get the Spring of Life!

"

That was a fact. These people had fought so hard for this item that they would not stop here. So, as Vivian had the biggest 'group', she was the one with the best chance of getting this resource among those people!

"You competed for Spring of Life, but you lost! Your leaders or bodyguards died, and now you are alone. There is no alliance between the three of you that can work. So, in the end, only one can have this item.

" Minos said this as he shook his head from side to side.

"I ask you, is it worth it?

"

After Minos finished speaking, the three men could not contradict what he had said. It indeed was a disadvantageous situation for each of them. Even if they got together, they would probably just end up killing each other, and at most, only one of them would survive...

But they valued their lives very highly and did not want to die because of an item that other people would use. Of course, as long as they had a chance, they would try, but they had missed it the moment their respective fellow travelers had died.

Other than that, while Vivian was a nobleman with Black-grade techniques, these other people were just subordinates, who mostly had Blue-grade techniques.

Even if they were in greater numbers, when they took into account the quality of their techniques that each one had, there was a balance of strength between them!

'Ahh, it seems there is nothing to do. If only our reinforcements could arrive in time…' The rep thought to himself.

With Minos' attack tonight, it was virtually impossible for any reinforcements to arrive in time. If this had happened two days later, maybe they could have changed this end, but there was nothing to be done now.

Things had already developed up to this point, and it was foolish to even think about how things would have been if it had happened differently!

And as soon as they thought about it for a moment, one of those men finally looked at Vivian and then at Minos and said.

"Ahh, there's nothing to do... Well, if that's the case, I'll say goodbye. I don't want to stay on this base any longer and risk the Chambers family's reinforcements arriving!

"

"Cough, I'll do the same. Good luck to you, young Vivian, you got a good item!

" the representative said before finally turning around and leaving the place.

Each of them had to flee as far away as possible, as the Chambers family would surely hunt them down as soon as this invasion was discovered.

On the other hand, Vivian was still around, now with a satisfied expression, even though she was still tired and dirty from the previous battle.

Minos then handed the bottle with that green liquid to Vivian and advised her.

"I recommend that you use this liquid as soon as possible. In less than a month, the effects of this portion will decay to half of what it is now.

"

Hearing this, Vivian was serious for a moment as she looked closely at this valuable resource.

"Thanks for the tip, sir.

"

After that, she said goodbye to Minos briefly, even invited him to visit the Hayes family headquarters in the future. Anyway, she left that place with her bodyguard, following quickly out of this base.

And not long after that, while Minos and Abby were talking in the middle of that place where the fights had taken place, a soldier approached them and said.

"Young master, all items that could be carried from this place have already been properly stored in spatial rings!

"

"Hmm, that's good... Guys, it's time to go home!

"
