The Rise of the Black Plain
Chapter 2432: Reunion

The moment they left, the level 111 Sovereigns who were about to catch up with them failed to touch Kendrick's portal before it closed.

"Shit! That brat screwed us!" said one native of The Enchanted Realm as he realized that not only had they lost contact with this group, but that an even bigger problem was now within their grasp.

While they had been left behind, they had attracted the full attention of the intelligent surveillance devices that had just noticed Kendrick's actions.

At this moment, the forces of The Blossom World were aware that Kendrick Stuart was in this world, but local experts were already being called in to catch up with the three invaders now being monitored in this sewer tunnel!

"Let's get out of here! We can't go after this group now!" The leader of the group said in a cold sweat, immediately heading back the way they had come, but this time flying much faster.

...

Meanwhile, for Kendrick's group...

Grisdi saw the group of envoys from her planet attack toward Kendrick's group a few moments ago, when he threw her body into the portal before going through that region of space himself.

The native of The Enchanted Realm could only turn pale as she realized her great opportunity to save herself had been ruined by a simple moment of desperation by Kendrick and his group.

'Shit! I almost got rescued!' she moaned in her mind as the others appeared at the spot near where Hollie had told Kendrick to open her portal.

But not only did she realize her group had almost been reached by three high-ranking Sovereigns. As soon as they reappeared in the forest where they had been hours before, the level 106 robot alerted their group as Kendrick closed the portal.

"Sovereigns from The Enchanted Realm were about to reach us!" He said, glaring at Grisdi.

"How could this happen? I thought we were untraceable." Vico commented in disbelief, but he had felt the auras that had tried to approach them as soon as Kendrick had used his divine power.

Kendrick finished closing his portal and glared at Grisdi, feeling that this was somehow her doing. "I may have to kill you today." He muttered as he approached the alien, while Hollie tried to find the auras of her father's wives and Lily covered their auras in the area they had just arrived.

"Don't do that! I can help you stay in the dark!" Grisdi cowered.

With her cultivation sealed, there was no way she could resist Kendrick!

"I have a communicator connected to my life force. But I don't have to die to deactivate it. You just have to release my cultivation and I can destroy it." She took something out of her things, a device that didn't look like much at first glance, but which transmitted her location in real time.

"What a bitch! You almost got us killed!" Kendrick slapped her across the face, seeing how he had been tricked by this woman.

"We don't have time for this. Do what she says and let's go. I feel like we're close to our mothers, but they're not the only ones here." Hollie said as she realized that Kendrick's portal had put them in a tricky position, behind Ruth's group but ahead of the group of men following the six recently freed people.

If they stood still much longer, they would be overtaken by the high-level individuals, who had already noticed the abnormal spatial fluctuation in the area where they were.

Kendrick clenched his fists and quickly did what he was supposed to do, ordering the robot to kill Grisdi if she did anything suspicious.

...

Meanwhile, the observers from Ruth's group, two level 111 aliens, moved cautiously to maintain their surveillance of the six humans.

Suddenly, the two felt a strong spatial fluctuation coming from a few kilometers in front of them.

"Did you notice that?" One of the two asked.

"Do you want to check it out? We can split up. I doubt this group will be doing anything relevant in the next few minutes." The other one commented, a bit disturbed by the spatial disturbance he had just noticed.

This wasn't normal. A piece of space breaking off and turning into a doorway to another area was even more intense and powerful than the spatial distortion of a wormhole.

"Let's do this. You check it out, and I'll keep an eye on their group. But be careful. I have a bad feeling about this," said the other.

Soon after, the two went their separate ways while Kendrick's group moved, now finally without Grisdi sabotaging them.

...

"Did you feel that?" Ruth looked back in the direction where she had just noticed a familiar sensation.

Abby also looked in that direction as she stopped flying and felt the sensation of Kendrick's ability.

"Shit! That's Kendrick!" She was the first to alert her group, not expecting him to be so close.

"Kendrick? What's he doing here? Doesn't he know the locals want his head?" One of the three level 106 men standing with Abby, Gloria, and Ruth asked.

"Let's go back! He could be in danger. This spatial fluctuation is too strong for only us to have noticed it!" Ruth turned around and was the first to move forward to where the rest of Kendrick's group had already left to come toward them.

For the next five minutes, their two groups would move in opposite directions, with Minos' women heading toward where Kendrick's group had arrived and his group heading toward them.

Halfway there, they would meet before either of the two level 111 locals realized they were together.

"Mother!" Kendrick shouted at the sight of Abby, while looks of relief appeared on Lily and Hollie's faces.

Seeing that they were all okay, the members of both groups felt the relief of being reunited before worrying about what to do next.

But as soon as they had hugged each other and exchanged a few quick words saying they were fine, the level 106 robot warned them of the enemy they had just spotted.

"Prepare to fight. A level 111 Sovereign is watching us," said the artificial being with the androgynous voice.
