The worshippers persuaded Miranda to go, saying it was her blessing to be guided. She nodded after some hesitation as she wished to tear away Remus’ disguise. How could he always be so arrogant and treat her with disrespect? She wanted to see how he would react when she walked out. In the end, she followed Master Calvert. They passed the statue of the Mountain Deity and headed to the back of the temple. Once they disappeared from sight, Remus said, “Mr. Stuart, remember what you said. You’ll take a go at anything that stands in your way, including the Mountain Deity, and no one can take Miranda away from you.”Ben arrogantly retorted, “Of course, I remember what I said. As for you, if there isn’t a third party who meddles in my relationship, you’ll have to kneel before me!”The worshippers heard Ben’s words and added, “You must kneel before the Mountain Deity too!”“You have to bow 100 times, 1000 times. No! Ten thousand times.”“Ignorant bastard. How dare you stir up trouble
Even the worshippers were shocked. Their impression of Master Calvert was that he was gentle and kind. However, he looked like a totally different person at this moment.Anyone with eyes could see what was happening. He was forcing Miranda. This meant that Remus was right. Master Calvert was surprised when everyone walked in but wasn’t worried at all. He ridiculed, “Mortals, get out of here! Don’t disturb me from doing my job. I want to become one with her today. Tsk, what a beautiful bride!” Everyone was taken aback by his words. On the floor, Miranda was trembling with regret. She should’ve listened to Remus and not come here. Fortunately, some part of her had believed him, so she'd been on high alert. Otherwise, she would be dead by now.Then she turned to Ben and said, “Save me!”At this point, Ben was stupefied and couldn’t utter a word.“Kill anything that comes your way, huh?” Remus walked up to him and laughed. Only then did Ben return to his senses and say angrily, “
Ben was enraged and said, "Master Calvert, please kill him for me. I'll not only give you Miranda, but I'll also make consistent donations to the temple. At least 500 thousand each month if you kill him!"Since Remus laughed at him so much, Ben would make sure he died here.Hearing that, Master Calvert laughed. "I like money. I like it a lot! Tsk! This is a deal! Tsk!"Then he turned toward Remus. Instantly, everyone moved away. Even Anthony was drenched in sweat, as he felt that Master Calvert was too weird. Remus spoke casually: "I'm warning you not to get close. I don't like killing, but I won't hesitate to kill if you dare to touch me!" "What did you say?" Master Calvert was enraged, and his expression was wretched. "You little rascal. How dare you disrespect me? You're seeking death!""Monkey!" Remus ridiculed, "Do you think you're the greatest divine being? If you don't touch me, you might get to enjoy your peaceful life in the temple. But since you have clearly chosen ot
Order of Nine Mysticisms!If the Mandrill hadn’t reminded Remus, he would’ve forgotten that his master always said he was the 28th generation of the Order of Nine Mysticisms. That meant that Remus was the 29th generation. Suddenly, Remus missed his master and wondered where he was now. Would he find him at the prison? Then he lowered his head and asked, “You’ve heard about it?”“Yes! Yes!” The Mandrill nodded repeatedly. “I’m from Eike, so I know about the ancient Order of Nine Mysticisms. I’m sorry. This is all my fault. Please forgive me. I’m sorry. If I had known that you're a member of the Order of Nine Mysticisms, I wouldn’t have acted so recklessly.” The Mandrill kept banging his head on the ground. The others might be clueless about the Order of Nine Mysticisms, but he knew it well. That one palm would crush him to dust and prevent him from ever reaching heaven. Remus was speechless when he found out that the Mandrill knew about their organization. His master had once sa
Inside the temple, the onlookers started cursing Ben."Trash! How could he give up on his fiancée? Bastard!""I've never seen such a shameless guy! Miss, you should just give up on him and not get married. Look at what happened today. I can't imagine what he'll do in the future!""Yes! He's unworthy of you. I think the deity is a good match. It's your luck if he likes you. You have to cherish it!"They were harsh with their words, and some even spat at Ben."Shut up! All of you!" Ben's face was flushed with anger. He quickly walked to Miranda and forced out a smile. "Miranda, don't be mad. You saw what happened. If I hadn't given in, both of us would've—""Stop!" Miranda returned to her cold attitude. She looked at Ben disgustedly and said, "I will not marry a cowardly, incompetent, and shady guy! I'll go back and tell my parents that the wedding is canceled!"After that, she quickly walked out of the temple. When she got to the stairs, she noticed Remus was gone. She bit her li
Time passed by quickly, and it was soon 7.30 pm.“The Owens family of Neptuna gifted the newlyweds a pair of Jade heart figures to bless the couple with eternal love!”“The Julias family of Neptuna gifted the newlyweds a pair of gold bracelets, hoping they'll be even more prosperous in the future!”“The Dillards family of Neptuna gifted the newlywed pair of Jade doves, wishing them a strong marriage!”Vespa Villa was extremely lively, and the guests kept entering with gifts. Famous and rich people from Neptuna and even the surrounding cities and counties were gathered on the lawn. Everyone was here to witness the marriage between the Bowens and the Stuarts.Elias and Brianne held their glasses while entertaining the guest with bright smiles. Skylar and Ben were present too. They held their glasses high. Although Skylar had told Elias he could do anything to Ben after tonight, the people in their country paid more attention to tradition. After tonight, everyone would know that Be
His expression cold, Ethan suddenly said, “That little bastard didn’t come, but his loyal follower is here. At least I can teach his dog a lesson first!”The crowd was dumbfounded by his words. What was going on? Both Skylar and Elias were sensible people, so they stopped in their tracks after hearing Ethan’s words. They couldn’t act rashly before knowing the whole situation.Anthony felt weird that everyone was staring at him. Still, he walked forward. Finally, he noticed John and the others. He had a bad premonition. Were they planning to fight him on such an occasion? impossible; it would ruin the wedding!He walked up to Elias and Skylar and said, “Congratulations on the happy occasion. I hope the newlyweds will forever be happy.” In truth, he knew that Miranda had a marriage contract with Remus, so it was hard to wish them a good marriage.However, Elias and the others dared not reply to him. Then Ethan laughed. “You’re the Underground King of Neptuna? What a badass fucking
Ethan also showed his demeanor as the arrogant rich kid of Drakonia. Money could give one courage. One had to admit that, although Ethan was young, he was really domineering. Anthony hesitated for a moment and let go. Then he said seriously, “Mr. Steele, I’m on Mr. Cosby’s side, and I'll always support him. That will never change! You can fight me, but this is a celebratory occasion, so let’s talk about this in the future. Goodbye!”Then he crossed his arms and left. “Stand right there!” Ethan’s expression was getting gloomier. “You make it sound so dignified, but you just want to escape. Do you think I’ll give you a choice?”Then he looked at Elias and Skylar and asked, “Will you two allow me to kill him here?”Elias frowned. Regardless of whether Ethan was going to do it or not, this was his daughter’s wedding after all, and he didn’t want more trouble. But unfortunately, since it was Ethan speaking, he didn't dare to offend him. Skylar thought for a moment and quickly said,
Kaiser couldn't help but sigh when he saw them.This was his first time seeing them since Remus died. Judging by the state they were in, it seemed they hadn't finished mourning Remus.It makes sense. After all, he was their fiancé, as well as the greatest hero from ancient times to now. How could they easily move on from that?The ten women took their seats and turned to look at Kaiser.Gabriela said slowly, "Mr. President, you should consider dyeing your hair."At this point, his hair was completely white.Kaiser waved his hand and managed a smile. "In the past, I had to maintain Darsia's image, so I couldn't have any gray hair. Now that things are like this, there's no point in worrying about it. It's good to just let things be."Even with a head full of black hair, it could not change the impact caused by Remus' death, so there was no point in making a fuss about it.Kaiser paused and said, "I invited you all here today to discuss an important matter. Just this morning, the
The energy in the Underworld was currently in high demand, and the supply couldn't keep up. It was essential to reclaim the Pathic Energies to ensure the energy would continue to be released, and no one could stand in their way.Roman simply said, "I'm not asking what you would do if it was taken from you. I'm asking if there's a possibility it could be taken."The ghost kings couldn't help but look at him. If it were possible...Roman didn't give them much time to think and continued, "Let me put it another way. Even if Remus shows up, would anyone believe it was the Celestial Sovereign who saved him? Would the Celestial Sovereign admit that he was the one who rescued him?"Everyone, have you ever considered that the Celestial Sovereign has never publicly acknowledged that Remus carries his bloodline? If he suddenly denies it and claims that it was the Underworld that saved him, how should we respond?"The other fice sucked in a sharp breath.Paul was frustrated again. "Does he
Roman did not respond immediately and instead thought deeply about it with a serious expression.At this point, what happened to Remus no longer mattered. In fact, it might be better to say Roman would love to see Remus hurry off to fight the Upper Realms.But the issue was that people in the Upper Realms didn't know that Remus was still alive. What would they do if they saw him appear again? Would it affect Roman?It was like what the ghost kings initially thought—within the Three Realms, the only ones who could save Remus were Roman and Francis.Once Remus was exposed, Francis would naturally deny being the one who saved him, leaving Roman as the only one who could have done so. By then, he would become the target of everyone's criticism.So, before figuring out how to handle the aftermath, there was no way he could let Francis find out about this."Your Majesty?" Noticing Roman was hesitant to speak, the ghost kings couldn't help but urge him for a response.Roman took a deep
Remus didn't want to admit it, but he had to—here, he felt like he was immobile while the world around him was in constant motion.In other words, he had no control over what was happening and could only passively accept everything the world presented to him, without any right to refuse. The simplest metaphor was being forced to watch a movie while you were tied to a chair.Remus was feeling frantic again. It seemed he was truly trapped with no way out."Is Limbo really like this?" He felt powerless over the current situation. In his current state, he couldn't affect the Mortal Realm or the Underworld and was simply stuck here. If this wasn't Limbo, then what was?It was like how when a person died, it was not necessarily a complete disappearance. It could also be understood as being separated from friends and family, no longer able to meet, forever existing in different realms. Wasn't it the same case right now?Remus slowly descended into the forest, coming to a stop without any
Remus was shocked, staring blankly at the scene.Under normal circumstances, after reliving his life once, he should have just faded away. That was how it usually was for ordinary people. So, why hadn't he disappeared, and why were the scenes starting to repeat?As expected, after Remus snapped out of it, he heard voices coming from the mountaintop. It was once again the scene of Tyson holding a ruler, disciplining a sobbing Remus."Why... Why is this happening?" Remus muttered to himself, growing more and more shocked. "Is this what the so-called Limbo looks like, or did something go wrong?"For a moment, he didn't know whether to feel happy or worried. Naturally, he was happy because he still existed, but he was also worried because the current situation felt too unfamiliar.Remus remained calm and continued to look ahead. The scene shifted to the front of the prison, then to Kylie calling off their engagement, and then to various moments shared with the other women from his pas
"No!" Remus roared, feeling a bit panicked.According to human processes, after reliving one's memories, the spirits would depart the body as a farewell to the Mortal Realm, and the physical body would begin to decay and turn to dust.If that was the case, wouldn't he fade away into nothingness after revisiting all his memories as a specter?"No, no!" Remus started shouting, trying to stop it, because this was the final act of his specter. Once this moment passed, he would completely vanish into nothingness, and he was doing everything he could to prevent that.Unfortunately, the situation in front of him wouldn't change just because he willed it to. The result would be the same as from the start, continuing to unfold bit by bit."Candace Nightingale!" Remus shouted once again. Seeing Candace nearly being squashed by the Pathic Energies, he couldn't help but wish he could lend a hand in it. If she had been killed then, he wouldn't be filled with such regret now.The scene was sti
When Remus saw this, he suddenly started laughing.This scene was from when he first arrived at the prison. He was indeed nervous and worried outside the gate. After all, it was his first time coming down from the mountains and entering the outside world, especially since Tyson said this was the most dangerous place in the world.Because of that, he was extremely cautious when going in, afraid of getting beaten up. It was also here that he parted ways with Tyson, and he hadn't seen him since then.Remus looked at Tyson, wanting to take a closer look at him, but the scene changed once again.It was three years later, when Kylie came to break off their engagement. Adorned in luxurious designer brands, she arrogantly said, "We belong to different worlds. Give me the marriage contract!"If it weren't for the fact that she was a girl, Remus would have definitely given her a rough time. Why bother putting up an act?The scene shifted again. This time, he was at the Bowen family's luxur
Remus stared straight ahead for a moment, then began frantically looking around. All he saw was a dense forest surrounding him. There was no sign of Tyson anywhere.What terrified him even more was that when he looked down right after that, he discovered he had no body or spectral form.Remus quickly raised his hand, wanting to touch his arm, attempting to see if he was simply concealed. However, he unexpectedly couldn't feel his arm! It was as if he only had a pair of eyes to observe the world, and no one else could even see these eyes."How did this happen? What is this place?" Remus was completely panicked.Why did he see a scene from over 20 years ago? Did he travel back in time? Or was this scene simply playing itself back to him? Where exactly was he?The sound of a slap interrupted his train of thought.Remus sharply turned to look, and to his surprise, he could see the top of the mountain along the path.At the summit was a small thatched house, and in front of it sat a
Unfortunately, the problems kept coming one after another.Grant said, "That's a good idea, but how can Remus return to the Mortal Realm or even reach the Upper Realms? He's currently a specter and isn't able to go there!"The other four ghost kings froze. The favorable outcome made them overlook the necessary process. Remus couldn't reach the Upper Realms, which meant the fight between him and Francis couldn't happen.They all turned to look at Roman.Roman frowned deeply. There was actually a way to help Remus return to the Mortal Realm. Remus would have been able to think of it too, but he just couldn't see what was right under his nose.There was a term called "Soul Return". Remus could find a recently deceased body and enter it, allowing him to return to the Mortal Realm.But Roman's statement about not being able to help Remus return to the Mortal Realm wasn't a lie, because no resurrected body could ever match the strength of Remus' original form.Even if his specter poss
