All eyes immediately redirected their attention to the unexpected newcomer.Even those who had been advancing toward Glinda came to an abrupt halt.Following the previous deadly confrontation, no one dared to tread the airspace above the Tanjen Organization. Thus, the newcomer's bold entrance hinted at extraordinary skill and power."Gemma!" Someone in the crowd recognized the newcomer. It was Gemma, who had been waiting at the Tanjen Organization for Remus and was reportedly instructed by Remus himself to do so. "Didn't she flee? Why has she returned?""And arriving by treading the air?""What's going on?"The crowd was abuzz with confusion and questions."You wretched woman!" Master Sky immediately burst out in anger.She commanded fiercely, "How dare you tread the air above the Tanjen Organization! Are you tired of living? Seize her!"At her command, several people rushed forward, revealing their Nascent Soul Stage cultivation.Those individuals represented the final r
Glinda, who had just managed to stand up, collapsed again as her legs gave way. She appeared utterly drained of spirit, staring blankly at the ground."Impossible, that's a lie!" Henry was agitated, leaped up and exclaimed, "Impossible! Master Calsberg is immensely powerful and mysterious! How could he fall so easily? You're lying! It's not true!""You're lying! Where exactly is Master Calsberg?" The other six also asked eagerly. Remus was their unwavering beacon of hope, and they simply couldn't fathom the idea of such an extraordinary figure meeting his downfall.Gemma calmly said, "I do not need to lie to you. Just last night, I arrived at the Herbal Pavilion with Remus. He stood atop the Pavilion, confronting them, willingly facing the Herbal Pavilion on his own. Little did he realize, they harbored numerous masters, some of whom exceeded our comprehension! "Remus endured for no more than a minute until he fell!"A deafening shockwave of astonishment rippled through the ass
Suddenly, a loud noise emanated from Glinda's body.Her complexion rapidly changed from pale to a healthier shade of red. The swelling on her face caused by Master Sky's slap was visibly receding. Even the blood at the corner of her mouth seemed to be drawn back into her body, as if by some unseen force.However, nobody paid any attention to her, not even Glinda herself. All that consumed her mind was anger, and her eyes were filled with murderous intent. She slowly stood up and questioned, "Do you both deserve to be Remus' companions? Bowing and scraping before the enemies who killed Remus? Are you even worthy to be human?"Her words finally caught the attention of the crowd, and they all turned to look at her. Master Sky was quick to retort, "Shut up, you wretch! It was Remus' own recklessness that led to this. Why should I be loyal to him? I'm not even his companion, he was just infatuated with me. Why should I remain faithful to him?"Gemma added, "I repeatedly cautioned hi
The crowd quickly descended the mountain, with Master Sky leading. Gemma and Master Sky reached Gerry's side almost simultaneously."No, please, don't ... don't!" Gerry cried out, his heart racing when he saw the large group of people rushing toward him.He struggled violently, fearing that they were there to take his life."Mr. Andrus, you've endured enough. I'll free you now," Gemma said soothingly before rising to her feet."Mr. Andrus, I'll untie you, not this wretched woman!" Master Sky channeled a burst of spirit energy, swiftly severing the ropes."What?" Gerry was confused, weren't they here to end him?Witnessing Master Sky seize the opportunity, Gemma felt a surge of anger. She mustered her courage, walked over quickly, grabbed Gerry's arm, and placed it over her shoulder, supporting him.Pitifully, she said, "Mr. Andrus, you know, over these past few days, I've been constantly consumed by the thought of rescuing you. However, I'm just a frail woman, and my capabilitie
Gerry was feeling triumphant. Hearing someone asking a question, he instinctively turned around and began to say, "I was saying, I want to—"Before he could complete his sentence, his gaze fell upon the person asking the question, and his face instantly drained of color, as though he had come face-to-face with a malevolent specter.Overwhelmed by fear, his scalp prickled, and his eyes widened in sheer disbelief.Seeing Gerry's reaction, everyone also turned to look.Upon catching sight of the person standing behind them, everyone froze in their tracks, feeling an intense rush of blood surging to their heads, and their eyes bulging out in sheer astonishment.If they weren't cultivators, blood would have sprayed from their heads, and their eyes would have shot out of their sockets."Remus Calsberg!" the crowd shouted.Gemma and Master Sky also screamed in fear, their bodies became tense, feeling as if cold air was seeping into their bodies through every pore. An eerie wind seemed
Everyone took a sharp breath, their bodies trembling, as they fixed their eyes on Gemma and Master Sky.They did think that the two women's actions were intolerable, especially given that Remus had only just died, and they were already embracing the very adversary he had fought against.Who could have imagined that Remus had actually survived and returned?She pleaded, "Remus, can you find it in your heart to forgive me? Originally, I was loyal to you, I even brought the entire Jade Organization here to show my sincerity. It was that wretched woman who claimed you were dead, and I couldn't allow the entire Jade Organization to be buried with you. "I had no other choice, and I had to make compromises. The truth is, you're the only one in my heart. I swear on my life that in this lifetime, I will be nothing but your faithful companion, and I will never betray you!"She raised her finger as if swearing.Remus saw her act and sneered, "Companion? When did I ever say I wanted you as
Remus finally smiled upon seeing Henry and the others.In fact, the reason he returned to the Tanjen Organization first was to assure them that there was no need for fear or panic.He explained with a smile, "I went to the Herbal Pavilion, intending to destroy it, but I encountered a Master of the sacred land there who intervened to ensure fairness. He arranged an alchemy duel between me and the Master of the Herbal Pavilion, Lance Walker, and I won in the end."However, as the Master of the sacred land maintains strong connections with the Herbal Pavilion, I chose to gracefully accept a draw as a sign of respect. I also communicated clearly with the Herbal Pavilion that moving forward, we would avoid any conflicts and put our past differences behind us!"He spoke casually but his words carried indescribable shock to the listeners. There was a lot of information to digest in just those few sentences.First and foremost, Master Calsberg possessed the capability to potentially disma
Gemma stood in place, watching the increasingly distant figure of Remus and spat out another mouthful of blood, feeling as if her entire world was collapsing.But there was nothing she could do.She got up and quietly left.…Remus asked, "Has anyone from the Violet Sanctum or the Freestyle Organization arrived yet?"His biggest concern upon leaving was the Violet Sanctum and the Freestyle Organization, fearing they might take his absence as an opportunity for revenge.Henry walked behind him, shaking his head as he spoke, "No, there hasn't been any news. I believe the Violet Sanctum is patiently awaiting for their Master to emerge from seclusion. "As for the Freestyle Organization, it's presently under the sole leadership of their young master, Xavier Goon, who is preparing to enter the Sacred Lands. If he were to seek revenge, it would likely only be after the ascension."Remus nodded and then said, "I'll need to leave again for a while. I'll have Wind Hunter guard Tanjen, a
Time flew by quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was already evening.Before this, Darsia's citizens were unaware of the immortals descending to their realm. However, by nightfall, it became impossible to hide this fact, as 15 bright stars appeared in the sky.Darsia's citizens had all witnessed the past battle between Remus and the Upper Realms, so the current scene felt both familiar and not to them.The familiarity came from the unusual phenomena in the sky that night. The unfamiliarity came from the fact that there were no other unusual signs apart from these 15 stars, making it much smaller in scale compared to that night.Among these 15 stars, 13 of them were white and evenly distributed across various locations in Darsia. Another was gold, hovering directly above Centuria, while the last one was only faintly visible.The gold star was a Golden Immortal leading the 13 white stars, who were Celestial Immortals. And the last one was a heavenly official.The Golden Immortal an
If they didn't surrender, the people of Darsia would face casualties in the tens of millions.Of course, the most important thing was that no matter how hard the Mortal Realm tried or resisted, it could not even land a finger on the Upper Realms. If they were to fight, the outcome wouldn't just be one-sided—they would lose by a landslide.None of them could bring themselves to say it, but they knew the responsibility for doing this unpleasant task fell on them.The sound of sobbing rang out in the conference room again.Kaiser glanced around at the women, fully aware that no one felt more aggrieved than they did. However, there was nothing he could do. Despite being the president, he was powerless.Still, he had to ask, "Do any of you disagree?"None of them responded. They had countless things to say, but they all boiled down to the fact that they were simply not strong enough. If there were even the slightest chance of victory, they would resist without hesitation.Unfortunate
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
