Hearing the command, Dawson and Paul quickly headed toward Rafael. Meanwhile, Grant and Nick charged toward Melody.In an instant, everyone in the Three Realms felt a rising tension. They all lifted their heads in unison to gaze upward. Throughout the entire expanse of space, there wasn't a single sound, and even the air seemed to have turned still.The people all hoped to rescue Rafael and Melody for a simple reason—they were Remus' parents.Although Remus was dead and didn't ultimately overthrow Francis or completely overturn the Upper Realms, he slaughtered countless immortals and pushed Francis to the brink. From this perspective, he had already saved humanity. So, how could everyone not wish for his parents to survive?Meanwhile, the four ghost kings had arrived at both formations. They were rapidly releasing their energy, probing the formation with quick movements. Of course, this was all just for show for the others watching. Only they themselves knew their true intentions.

A subtle energy emanated from Roman, and he traversed swiftly to the ghost kings' sides.The four ghost kings could sense Roman's energy and subtly glanced downward. Although Roman maintained his previous posture, they could still tell that this was a signal, indicating that it was time to trigger the formations.The ghost kings all withdrew their gazes at the same time. After that, Dawson and Paul glanced at Rafael, and despite having already decided what needed to be done, their resolve wavered.It was one thing to plan it out in their heads, but putting it into action was another matter entirely. Even though they were just triggering the formation, in a way, it felt like they were personally ending Rafael's life.However, even though it was hard to bear, it still needed to be done!Both of them released their energy at the same time. In an instant, the radiant light surrounding the formation intensified significantly, raising it to a new level. A thick white mist started to env

Everyone simultaneously looked up at the two formations. Upon seeing the scene above, they were all shocked and left speechless, unable to believe their eyes.The ghost kings' energy surrounding the formations exploded and rippled outward. This unexpected burst pushed the ghost kings backward by three steps.The most crucial thing was that within the formations, the flames and lightning had significantly weakened. The alternating frequency of the flames had become extremely slow, and the speed at which the lightning struck was now visibly slower and no longer fierce.Could the formations have been broken?The most shocked ones, of course, were the ghost kings and Roman. Their original intention was to trigger the formations to kill Rafael and Melody. Yet, why did it seem like the formations were actually about to be broken now?Roman immediately cast an intense glare at the four ghost kings, who all shuddered and exchanged bewildered glances. They couldn't figure out where things

Roman was trembling even more now, not knowing what to do. After all, if they were to continue pretending to break the formations, they would genuinely be broken. But if he did nothing, it would cause a backlash.Asking for more time wouldn't be possible either, because he had just mentioned that they had reached a critical point and couldn't wait any longer. He had no way out!At that moment, Francis spoke up again. "Hm? You're just one step away from breaking through the formations completely. Why aren't you taking action?"At that moment, everything below fell silent, and everyone stared wide-eyed at Roman. Even though Francis was no longer the ruler of the Three Realms, his voice still rang out powerfully and commanded attention.Roman cast his gaze at Francis once again, his eyes filled with such intense anger that it seemed as though it could physically obliterate Francis from existence.However, Francis didn't even give him a chance to speak, directly saying, "You wouldn't

As soon as Jeffrey said that, the other presidents began to chime in."Darsia has helped me greatly in the past, too! If my country weren't so small and unable to influence the situation, I would stand up and oppose it. But for now, all I can do is stay neutral.""Yes, Darsia has also been helpful to our country, and even now, we still owe Darsia loans. Logically, I should be helping them in return. However, our country's influence is minimal and almost negligible in such a complex situation, so all I can do is remain silent.""I'm neutral, too!""Same here!"Dozens of presidents spoke out at the same time.They all had one thing in common—they had received help from Darsia. However, due to their own limited strength, they found it challenging to even step out of their own country, much less assist Darsia in return.Because their national power did not allow it, and they understood that opposing the decision wouldn't make a difference, they chose to remain neutral.Darren was f
