So, they joined the queue to enter Netherhold.After a long while, Remus could hear the sounds of the sentinels talking. They were less than ten feet away from them.The sentinel on the left, Victor Mcneil. "I heard there's a new brewer in town who used to be an expert in the Mortal Realm. How about we go and ask for a drink later?"The one on the right, Hugh Callahan, replied, "Sure. However, my wife has been pretty strict with my spending lately, so could you… But don't worry, as soon as I get my pay, I'll treat you right away."Hearing this, Victor's smile became a bit forced, but he still replied cheerfully, "No problem, leave it to me. It's just a round of drinks, so I can definitely afford that.""Then, I'll thank you in advance," Hugh responded before heaving a sigh. "We don't get any profit from guarding the animal gate at all, while the guys at the southern gate are living in luxury. We've got to figure out a way to make some gains, too… Huh?"He trailed off before sudde

Whether it was in the Mortal Realm or the Underworld, humans and animals both existed on the same level, yet their status and circumstances differed greatly. This seemed wrong.Seeing Remus' odd expression, Flip thought he might be curious about the reason, so it quickly said, "I don't really know the specifics, but my elders mentioned that it might be related to the Battle of the Three Realms."There were already many conflicts between the Upper Realms and the Mortal Realm back then. One major issue was that the Monarch of Mortals seemed to have subdued many beast kings from different races and aimed to rule the world together with them."But the Upper Realms' immortals disagreed, viewing beasts as inferior creatures. In short, this led to a massive conflict, with chaos reigning all around."The Four Great Beast Lords' and the Monarch's deaths led to a significant decline in the beast race, reducing their status to almost nothing."Humans are also now living under the control of

Remus' heart suddenly sank. Even though he had only spent a few hours with Flip, hearing him say goodbye unexpectedly made him feel a deep sense of sadness.Maybe it was because Flip had helped him, or perhaps he had found a new understanding of life and death, as well as the separations they brought. It was probably the latter.In the past, Remus didn't really pay much mind to the concept of life and death, thinking that there would always be another opportunity.However, in the Underworld, death was permanent, and the idea of "goodbye" meant never being able to meet again.Remus suddenly chuckled and reached out to pat Flip on the head. Despite Flip's 300 years of training, it was still considered a child within its species.He said, "If I get the chance, I will definitely come back to see you. However, it's not time to say goodbye yet. There's still something I need to do."He slowly walked forward as he spoke.Flip was startled. It initially thought Remus was about to turn a

Remus and Flip continued moving forward, heading southwest.Helping Flip establish its position was indeed important, but Remus couldn't neglect his own matters. This way, he could achieve both goals.During this time, he successfully subdued three giant beasts and seven smaller creatures with abilities roughly equivalent to the Nascent Soul Stage. The process went very smoothly, mainly because the difference in power was overwhelming.After walking for about four hours, they finally arrived at the foot of the mountain. In theory, once they got over this mountain, they would reach where the human specters were.Remus slowly came to a stop, feeling a tinge of bitterness in his heart. He smiled and said, "Flip, this is where we part. Let's say our goodbyes here. If I get the chance, I'll come back to visit you."Not only that, he would also help Flip as much as he could. Even though he hadn't known it for long, he was growing more and more fond of Flip."Go ahead. I'll be right her

The beasts exiled here must not be ordinary ones. In their desperation, they would cry out and roar.To prevent their sounds from disturbing the other specters, a special setup had been created in the Stonehold to isolate their noises. Although the formation wasn't strong, no ordinary person could make their voice heard.Remus looked at Connor and Herman with surprise. "Officers, what are you talking about? What do you mean by 'cultivator?' I just yelled, and then you came."From the outside, his soul indeed looked just like any other.But Herman was furious. "How dare you continue lying to us? We clearly heard the sound of a beast! How could you make a beast's howl when you're human?"Remus' expression darkened. Given the suddenness of the situation and his rush, there were indeed many flaws in his story. However, it didn't matter. The howl was mainly meant to draw people over, and that goal was already achieved.Without wasting any more time, his energy burst out and propelled
