No one believed that Remus ascended from the Deity Realm to Martial Imperial in just 60 hours.Rafael spent 12 years achieving Martial Imperial, whereas Remus miraculously accomplished it in just three days. Considering his extraordinary abilities, the difference was still staggering.Garth's gaze turned solemn once more as he asked, "Can you repeat, how long did it take from the Deity Realm to the Martial Imperial?"Rufus burst into laughter, pointing at Remus. "Look at this guy, spewing nonsense just to join the Dragon Protector Clan. Achieving Martial Imperial in 60 hours? How's that possible? "Look through the Dragon Protector Clan's history. The most genius was Rafael Cosby, a Martial Emperor at 15! Now, our brightest star is Marlon Schneider from the Schniders, crowned Martial Emperor at 18, three years back! "Not just in the Dragon Protector Clan, even in the Rose family, there's no one worldwide who could attain Martial Imperial in 60 hours. Remus Cosby, are you fabricat
Remus swiftly delivered a slap across his face before Rufus could finish his sentence.Rufus staggered to the side, nearly losing his balance and taking two steps back.With the fall of that slap, the entire Monarch Palace turned deathly silent. Garth, Philbert, and Ana looked on in disbelief, unable to believe that Remus had slapped Rufus.Rufus looked around in bewilderment, then suddenly roared furiously, "You bastard, how dare you—"Remus delivered another slap, speaking coldly, "I've noticed your displeasure with me since I arrived. If you dare spew nonsense again, I'll slap you until you can't speak!"Rufus was on the verge of exploding in anger, wanting to defend himself but utterly incapable of doing so.He was the Deputy Master of The Schneiders, representing the Schneiders within The Dragon Protector Clan. And Remus wasn't even a member of The Dragon Protector Clan yet. How dared he slap someone as esteemed as Rufus?Rufus yelled, "Guards, take him down and throw him i
Despite Remus' unbelievable claims, the truth was that they had already acknowledged him as the Cosbys in their hearts.Ana's thorough investigation solidified his ties to the Cosby family and his mastery of the Imperial Form, validating his place within the revered Main Lineage as Rafael's son. Their tolerance of Rufus' doubts was rooted in their perception that Remus was too young to be considered an equal.Their disdain for Remus stemmed solely from his age. However, Remus' unwavering stance has forced a shift in everyone's perception of him."I-I will ..." Rufus finally rose from the ground, a relentless thought echoing in his mind, "What gives him the right to lay a hand on me?"Remus broke into an abrupt burst of speed, arriving before Rufus in a split second. Seizing him by the neck with one hand, he hoisted him forcefully against the wall. His tone was devoid of emotion as he said, "If you dare to speak another word from now on, I'll surely kill you!'"Rufus was initiall
Garth noticed there was no response from everyone and continued, "If there are no other matters, you may all leave and get ready!""I have something to ask!" Remus interrupted and swiftly presented the marriage contract. "Master Walter, this is the marriage contract my master made between me and the Walters. Please take a look. It doesn't specify whether my fiancée is Ana or Eva, so I can't be certain!"His other purpose in coming here was to find his fiancée.At his statement, a collective moment of stunned silence overtook the entire palace.Ana was particularly bewildered, unsure of what he was saying.Garth, having glanced at the marriage contract and finding his name inscribed upon it, was taken aback, feeling a sense of disbelief. Suddenly, a vivid recollection of the anonymous voyage he took years ago rushed into his mind.At that time, he just encountered an old man, they were engaged in a fishing competition, and they betted on a betrothal. Garth didn't think much of it
"Shawn, no wonder Ana's never been interested in you. Heck, even I can't find a reason to like you! What makes you think you're masculine enough? You're just a wimpy man!" Mocked a girl in a scarlet robe, her face adorned with a disdainful expression as she lectured.Right before her stood Shawn, who had just woken up from his slumber. Surrounding him were several young men and women, all speaking up one after another."Exactly! Remus is your rival, and you not only failed to reprimand him but also aided in cleaning up the Cosby residence.""You've not just tarnished your reputation as a man but also tainted the honor of the Cunningham family!""Shawn, if you're truly a man, go confront him and take Ana away from him!"Shawn gritted his teeth and blushed furiously at the remarks. "My grandpa used to say, a wise man knows when to yield. Remus is indeed more exceptional than me and is more suited to Ana. I won't contest it, it's just the way it is!"The sly girl with a cold smirk r
The crowd that just witnessed Remus knocking Scarlett away trembled in fear. They never expected Remus to strike her and quickly rushed over with concern."Remus Cosby!" Scarlett erupted, standing up in a rage. Facing Remus' retreating form, she glared with fiery eyes as she shouted, "Do you even know who I am? Let me tell you, my grandfather is Rufus Schneider!"He represents the Schneiders in the Dragon Protector Clan. Who do you think you are? How dare you strike me? Come here and kneel to apologize, now!"Her screams were heart-wrenching, but Remus seemed to have not heard her and just continued walking, entering the Cosby Residence.Scarlett grew even angrier at that sight, wishing she could rush over and beat him to death, but also worried about getting hurt herself.Just then, Rufus happened to walk by."Grandpa!" Scarlett dashed over as if she had found salvation. She was teary-eyed as she complained, "That bastard, Remus Cosby, hit me! They're all witnesses, they saw it!
"Three!" Eva exclaimed and began counting down unexpectedly.Observing her assertive attitude, Remus felt a throbbing vein on his forehead. Taking her back to the Imperial Villa might lead to chaos, potentially causing conflicts between Kylie and the others.He started explaining, "You can't just decide on such an important matter like this in a hurry. Marriage requires more time and interaction, so don't be in a rush ..."If there was a name written on the marriage contract, regardless of who it was, he had to abide by it. But since there were multiple-choices now, he had to choose carefully."Two!" Eva paid no heed, proudly staring at Remus, continuing the countdown."Eva," Remus shook his head helplessly. "Deciding now is too trivial, and this concerns the happiness of your entire life ...""One!" Eva interrupted directly with the countdown, taking two steps forward. "You can speak now, and you must, quickly, regardless of whether you've decided or not, you must say a name!
"Let's think about it tomorrow after the evening's gala." Remus didn't ponder much, heading back to his room and commencing his meditation.The Island of the Monarch was teeming with an unusually vibrant energy, rivaling the potency of the Violet Sanctum. Such an exceptional opportunity simply shouldn't be wasted.Moreover, cultivation was his trump card. If he hadn't been shielded by divine energy when facing Bason, he would have died long ago.The moments passed swiftly during the meditation, and before he knew it, the sky had turned dark.Remus opened his eyes with a healthy flush on his face, regaining the peak of the Training Stage. After tonight, he should be able to return to the Foundation Stage once more."As long as my divine energy restores to the later stages of the Foundation Stage, I'll stand invincible against the Supreme Martial Imperial. If I can restore it to the peak of the Foundation Stage, I might even be able to kill a Supreme Martial Imperial alone!" He cont
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
It was easy to tell from Paul's tone that he'd been holding it in for a long time. In fact, it wasn't just him. The other ghost kings also fell silent upon hearing this. The anger hidden within their hearts was stirred.It started with the Order of Nine Mysticisms' appearance.The Monarch of Mortals was humanity's leader, and all warriors and cultivators belonged to this group. Initially, everyone had faith in the Monarch. And, as the Pathic Energies naturally sought a vessel to inhabit, they naturally chose the first Monarch of Mortals.Later, the conflict between warriors and cultivators intensified, with the main issue being the plundering of the beast race.The warriors believed in coexistence between humans and beasts, while the cultivators viewed the beast race as inferior and thought they should be exploited.After several generations of Monarchs, the tension finally erupted, marking the beginning of the Battle of the Three Realms.At that time, even though the Monarch car
Grant realized that saying such things was somewhat self-deceptive, but he didn't know what else to say, so he fell silent. His eyes occasionally drifted toward Roman. At times like this, he felt like Roman needed to step up.Roman could feel his gaze. Despite still harboring some emotions, had no choice but to speak. After all, he was the Underworld's ruler, and they were waiting for him to make a decision. It was something he couldn't avoid.Taking a deep breath, he slowly said, "Grant is right. Remus mentioned we wouldn't interfere with each other, which means he won't trouble us anymore, and things won't be exposed for the time being."Instead of worrying about Remus, we should focus on the most pressing issues—the Pathic Energies!"He raised his head and said, "Currently, only one-third of the Pathic Energies remain in the Underworld. Although it won't affect the barrier, it still has a significant impact on us..."Roman didn't want to mention Remus anymore primarily because
