While that group was resting on the banks of a lake, Little Green's large body was slowly flying at this moment over the nearby area.
Its great shadow was already almost on top of that group, so many women there realized that a high-level beast was approaching them.
"All of you, in position!
Possible enemies ahead approaching our location!" One of the strongest women in that group, level 76, loudly told them to gather in combat position.
The weaker ones there were startled by that woman's shout, feeling goose bumps on their bodies as they looked up into the sky to see the exquisite beast approaching them.
That creature was so giant that it could even carry all of them on its back.
At the same time, its level was robust, stronger than the most powerful one there.
However, that was just a mount, as everyone there could see the shadow of three people on that creature.
"I wonder who it is?" A woman at the 6th stage asked as she stood in a defensive position, along with her weaker companions.
"My children, do not despair." The strongest woman there said in a tone marked by vicissitude, trying to appease their hearts. "Soon, we will all be together in a better place...
The one approaching us cannot be stopped, so prepare yourselves.
Let go of all your regrets, for we cannot escape from here."
Gulp!
At these words, the weaker ones mentally shed tears without struggling, while the stronger ones clenched their fists, feeling the end approaching.
They were innocent for the most part. But against Minos, they had nothing to argue with and, worse, no chance of survival.
So they could only lament their imminent death!
"Tsk!
Damn it! We were so close!" A level 70 woman could not contain her emotions and cursed, extremely sorry.
Meanwhile, a few of them felt that this moment would come sooner or later, so this situation was not at all surprising to them.
In this situation, some could even demonstrate peace of mind, preparing to end their journeys through this fantastic world.
'Time to meet my family again...' One of them closed her eyes as the faces of Minos, Ruth, and Gloria appeared to the others.
When the three of them came across the group of fugitives they were searching for, Minos placed one of his hands on Ruth's left shoulder and said. "I will leave the situation here for you to decide. I will only assist you in your decision."
Gloria looked at Ruth and saw that her harem sister seemed convinced of what she should do...
Kill all those people!
Only women were in that group, besides the beasts, of course. But these were enemies on the run, not people migrating from one place to another without making any mistakes or a complicated history.
These were potential individuals to become terrorists, like Abe Vogel!
They had to be ruthless and kill even low-level people to prevent the same mistake, or rather a failure, from being repeated.
Ruth then floated to the front of her family, leaving Little Green's back. "Members of the Spiritual Palace Sect, you should have surrendered to the imperial forces in Payton... That was the only chance you had.
But by choosing to flee, there is nothing to be questioned. You are traitors to the empire, potential enemy seeds.
We cannot let you go ahead with your plans. Surrender now, and I will guarantee painless deaths."
The strongest ones there felt humiliated that Minos would not do the dirty work, leaving it to his poor wife.
They didn't know how strong Ruth could be, so this was terrible for them.
These people didn't want to die, but if it was going to happen, they would rather it be at the hands of Minos, a monster without equality!
Meanwhile, Minos watched his wife handle the situation, liking to see that, although she didn't like it, Ruth understood what was needed for peace to happen.
'I'll lower the cultivation level of those three women and promote Ruth's level a bit...' Minos thought about this as he prepared to move.
He knew that Ruth could beat most of those people by herself. But without some help, the battle would take too long, and she could still get seriously injured.
Her combat proficiency was not as high as his since, as much as she had several Golden-grade techniques, her innate ability did not give her an abnormally energy-rich cultivation level. So Ruth's strength limit, just as Abby's would be when she advanced a stage, was not the same as Minos'.
This emperor knew this best, and upon seeing the ugly expressions of the enemies, he promptly jumped off Little Green's back to approach the enemies.
One of the women there, who was not so at peace with her own end, then asked him. "Minos, will you let your wife do your dirty work for you? Maybe you don't have the balls necessary to kill women?"
"You are mistaken. I just left your fate under my wife's decision. If she wanted to forgive you, I would allow that, even against my will." Minos said, making some women look even more hatefully at Ruth.
Ruth clenched her fists as she noticed an increase in the spirits of her enemies, but she did not back down, nor did she change her mind. A good enemy was one who was dead!
Hence, she soon made the first move of the fight, flying towards the strongest enemies.
Minos saw this and immediately acted against the three level 76 women there, causing their cultivation to decrease to level 75.
Meanwhile, he used these stolen cultivation bases to raise his own strength to level 72 and that of his wife to the same level.
Minos could only give one cultivation level to each person he decided to help with his innate ability. Only he could get a higher bonus.
With that, to avoid unnecessary danger, he took the opportunity to steal the levels of more opponents just to raise his own strength.
Meanwhile, Ruth sensed the powerful ability of Minos' Saint-grade Physique and attacked with great power in the direction of the most powerful enemies.
At that moment, she could be considered the strongest among all those people about to fight. As such, when lightning broke from her fists and struck one of the now level 75 women, that person was thrown against the ground, feeling great pain.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Ruth's blow had been stronger than that person could handle unharmed, so in addition to seriously injuring an opponent, it generated enough strong remnant attacks to ruin several of the weaker women there.
Just the clash of that Spiritual Saint's body with the ground had caused rocks to fly into the surroundings, striking the Spiritual Kings there mercilessly.
With that, the battle began, and as the stronger ones began to fight Ruth, the weaker ones tried desperately to run or fly away.
Their chances there would be zero, but as a survival instinct, the weaker ones could only try to run away!
