When Remus heard Husan mention "repaying the favor", he surmised that she intended to offer herself.He instinctively wanted to refuse, considering he had nine fiancées waiting for him. However, when the words were about to leave his lips, he found himself unable to utter them.As he remained unresponsive for a while, Husan slowly lifted her head, stealing a cautious glance. Her allure was different from a Darsian's, making it impossible for Remus to resist.Their eyes met, and Remus couldn't restrain himself any longer. He stretched out his arms, holding her firmly, and with a gentle wave of his hand, the branches quivered, forming an utterly impenetrable barrier.Their figures slowly fell onto the grassy edge of the cliff. At the moment they lay down, a cloud drifted by, veiling the moon in the night sky. The ambiance grew increasingly gentle.…The next morning, Remus woke up in bed, feeling as if he were in a dream, completely surprised by how things had turned out.He said,
The voice that echoed from outside the room was filled with boundless killing intent. And the accent was distinctly foreign.At that moment, hundreds of cultivators on Ironpeak Island simultaneously looked up, their faces displaying shock.The island was surrounded. Levitating above the island, four Supreme Martial Imperials were positioned in the four directions.Each of them had ten Martial Imperials standing behind them, making a total of 40 Martial Imperials. Behind the Martial Imperials, there were several dozen Supreme Martial Sovereigns. Nearly 200 people blanketed the sky above Ironpeak Island, it was as if the heavens were collapsing.And the speaking elder stood right in the central position above.He was dressed in a tailcoat, with golden hair and blue eyes. He towered above and shouted angrily, "Remus Cosby, get out!"His voice was ear-shattering."Are you looking for the wrong person? There's no one named Remus Cosby here!""You're hovering above Ironpeak Island! D
As soon as the elder's words fell, the energy from the surrounding Martial Imperials and Supreme Martial Sovereigns simultaneously leaked out.It seemed as if time had paused on the island. Not a single leaf quivered, as though everything had been immobilized, and the sea became eerily serene with no ripples.The cultivators below immediately felt a stifling sensation, as if they were unable to take a breath.Meanwhile, the clouds above parted, revealing a panoramic view that stretched to the heavens.Their eyes beheld 40 Martial Imperials and over 100 Supreme Martial Sovereigns standing right before them. Across the globe, it was only the Dragon Protector Clan and the Rose Family that could muster such an impressive show of strength.Remus exuded his divine energy, bracing against the pressure while discreetly observing the surroundings.Suddenly, Husan stepped forward, positioning herself beside Remus. She showed no fear as she spoke, "Since he has entered Ironpeak Island, he's
A true martial artist's combat skills transcended that of cultivator's, being capable of taking on ten cultivators at the Nascent Soul Stage, and even those in the later stages or at their peak.Among the cultivators behind Remus, only Husan had reached the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage. A few were in the later stages, fewer than ten were in the middle stage, and less than 20 were in the early stage. 11 of them had just achieved the Nascent Soul Stage last night after undergoing the heavenly thunder tribulation and hadn't fully recovered yet.The remaining cultivators were all in the Golden Stage, only able to contend with the Supreme Martial Sovereign.The Rose family simply had to deploy two Supreme Martial Imperials and 40 Martial Imperials to have a shot at prevailing against everyone. And with three Supreme Martial Imperials and 40 Martial Imperials, victory was a certainty.However, the current situation comprised a total of four Supreme Martial Imperials, 40 Martial Imper
Garth's expression bore the weight of earnest conviction as he declared, "His destiny is etched in the stars! Were Remus on the Island of the Monarch, facing any number, be it eight or even ten Supreme Martial Imperials dispatched by the Rose family, the Dragon Protector Clan would rally all our might for his rescue!"However, now that he's fallen into the clutches of the Roses, any attempt to save him is like daringly snatching someone from their grasp, jeopardizing the holistic growth of the Dragon Protector Clan. I ... can't issue the command for his rescue!"These words hit Philbert like a thunderbolt. His eyes darkened, and he looked at Garth in disbelief, understanding everything at that moment.Finally, he understood that Garth also did not wish for Remus to return. The moment he dispatched Remus to Ironpeak Island was a calculated move to send him to his death.Rufus observed Garth's expression and felt an overwhelming sense of satisfaction. He sneered and said, "Mr. Cunnin
The moment Remus stepped into the cabin, Philip's expression immediately darkened, his mouth trembling incessantly. He turned around, anger evident in his voice, "A bunch of ants dare to threaten the Rose family. They ... deserve death!"He briskly walked toward the bow of the ship. Seeing this, the three Supreme Martial Imperials quickly followed behind. The 40 Martial Imperials didn't hesitate and trailed after them, with the 128 Supreme Martial Sovereigns closely in tow.They made their way over the deck and ascended toward the skies, heading straight for Ironpeak Island.From the perspective of martial practitioners, cultivators were nothing more than rubbish, deemed failures who deserved death. This sentiment was even more pronounced in the eyes of the world's two paramount fractions, the Rose family.The trash-like cultivators dared to threaten them and even dared to protect Remus. They deserved to die a thousand times over. Their previous restraint was merely out of concern
"I told you to go back!" The Supreme Martial Imperial glared at Remus fiercely, and a sudden pressure emanated from his body.He hadn't expected Remus to come out. Suddenly, it was clear that a continuous energy was spreading outward from him, exceptionally profound.Remus swiftly released divine energy to resist, at the same time to survey his surroundings. Indeed, there was not a single person in sight. A sudden sense of foreboding sprouted in his heart.He didn't know what had happened or why only one Supreme Martial Imperial was left to guard him. He even briefly believed that someone from the Dragon Protector had come to rescue him.However, he momentarily felt it was unlikely because if the Dragon Protector had come to rescue him, the battleground should be nearby. Yet, the scene there remained calm and serene.Therefore, the only remaining possibility was …"Get lost!" The Supreme Martial Imperial didn't hold back, throwing a direct punch at Remus.Deep within, he harbore
Faced with the fierce onslaught of the Supreme Martial Imperial, Remus still didn't retaliate.The Supreme Martial Imperial suddenly halted, his eyes on the verge of popping out, as if he had just encountered an otherworldly adversary.He shouted anxiously, "How? How is your spirit energy blocking my attacks?"He was completely driven mad by fear, never before had he encountered such a seemingly unbeatable opponent.A faint flush colored Remus' face as tiny beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. The divine energy surrounding him dwindled to just the last remnants of the early Training Stage.Yet, he unexpectedly took a step forward and roared in anger, "Die!"Upon hearing this, the Supreme Martial Imperial's body erupted as sweat poured from every pore. He no longer retained the fury and courage he displayed earlier, as if he had suddenly come to the realization as to why Remus was able to kill Bason.The man standing in front of him, Remus Cosby, was nothing short of a living
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
