Everyone felt reluctant, but they were compelled to depart.

Within a mere five minutes, the banquet hall stood vacant. Elias had contemplated offering his congratulations, but witnessing the tender exchange between Remus and Jean, he opted not to intrude.

"Did you really refine the elixir?" Jean's eyes were filled with admiration. She found Remus increasingly mysterious the more she interacted with him. He seemed capable of anything.

Remus arrogantly replied, "Of course, alchemy is child's play. There are even more powerful things I can do."

The light in Jean's eyes intensified, and she instinctively asked, "What else?"

Without thinking, Remus responded, "You!"

"Huh?" Jean was momentarily perplexed, and then her face flushed crimson. After two seconds, she averted her gaze, bashfully concealing her embarrassment.

Remus was speechless. Why had she changed? In the past, she might have said something like, "Why don't you give it a try?" and then brushed off his words. After all, th

    “Speak!”Ben cleared his throat before he continued, “We can’t do anything to Remus for now because Ms. Lotus is protecting him. I’m worried she would be inflicted once we take action on him. However, if we could lure Remus somewhere else and have him assassinated, it would be a guaranteed success!”Skylar instantly agreed. “This is a good idea. Mr. Steele, let’s not go back and forth with that bastard Remus. We could just get a killer to assassinate him. By then, Ms. Lotus can’t do anything, even if she’s unhappy about it. What else could she do? Moreover, if we lure Remus to somewhere hidden and kill him, Ms. Lotus wouldn’t have any evidence that we did it!”John nodded. “It’s a great idea!”Leonard’s gaze became deep. He had thought of this idea but was worried that Jean would take revenge against him. On the surface, he didn’t seem scared, but he was panicking inside. The Lotus family might not give Jean a helping hand, but she would get married in the future. What if she asked

    Jean and Remus had just returned to the Imperial villa when Jean's phone rang. "Dad, you're still awake at this hour?" Jean answered the call in confusion. Her dad had always paid great attention to his health, so he would be in bed around this time. Javier laughed, "I heard some good news about my daughter. How could I fall asleep without knowing? The guy you chose is good in medicine and created a pill worth ten billion in the market. My daughter, you have good taste!"Jean shuddered, and her eyes were red. This must be the second time her father praised her all her life. The last time was when she acquired Plot 140. Compared to that, they earned even more profits from this project.She was about to cry and said, "Dad, I didn't know you'd heard about it. I thought you must have been asleep by now. So, I had planned to tell you about it tomorrow.”Javier laughed, "Silly girl. You should always share your good news with me immediately. Even if I was asleep, I would wake up to he

    Remus' phone rang at this time. He quickly answered it to distract himself. "What's the matter?""Your fiancee, Kylie Cox, has been kidnaped. If you want her alive, come to Drakonia. Do not tell Jean Lotus about it. If she were to find out, we'll make sure that Kylie Cox suffers!" On the other end of the call was Leonard. However, he had a voice changer that altered his voice, and it sounded very weird.Remus looked at the number and saw it was an unknown number. Then, he said, "Idiot. Shouldn't you do some research before kidnapping someone? Our marriage contract has been canceled, so we don't have any relations. You can do anything you want to her. Oh, and I don't even like her. Give her a few smacks on my behalf." It was the funniest joke to Remus. How dare these people threaten him with Kylie? Only two people in this world could ever threaten him, which were his Master and Jean."You!" Leonard was pissed off."I'm not kidding! She'll die if you don't come to Drakonia!" He sai

    They stopped before the Imperial Villa and the young man looked up slowly. He looked at the window on the second floor and said, “She must be very happy now, right? Thinking she could fight against fate and that she’s powerful.”He seemed to laugh, and there was ridicule in his voice. The old man bent over and stood behind him. He was motionless and silent like a dead man. The young man laughed evilly, “Since she feels so happy, we shall let her die in happiness. Go and kill her!”Finally, the old man shuddered upon hearing that. “Sir, we might get ourselves in trouble. That’s the young lady of the Lotus.”The young man said, “She’s useless to the family. No one cares if she dies. Moreover, we won’t be affected since we can easily blame this on Leonard as the one who killed her in a fit of anger.”The old man frowned. “Sir, do you want to think this through? She…”The young man sneered. “Hmm?”Immediately, the old man dared not continue. Then, he said, “Please wait, sir!”Af

    Unfortunately, Ben didn't pity her and gave her a hard slap. Then, he laughed, "I want you specifically! Remus, do you see this? I just slapped your fiancee, and she's begging me to let her go!"At this moment, Ben felt great satisfaction. The day Remus appeared in Neptuna was the day hell descended upon him. His plans to take down Jean were disrupted. Then, the situation at the racecourse and the other matters happened later. His reputation was gone because of Remus. "Please! I'm begging you!" Kylie cried out of fear and said, "Mr. Stuart, you're the new rich of Neptuna, and you can get any woman you want. Please, can you let me go? I can also give you money. A hundred million!"At this point, she couldn't do anything but beg for her life. However, Ben only gave her a second slap. He stood condescendingly before her and arrogantly said, "Remus' fiancee, quick, beg me to hit you!""I…" Kylie's hair was a mess. Ben then grabbed her hair and shook her head like crazy. "Beg me!

    Ben didn’t hesitate to betray Leonard. “I know. You don’t have to tell me,” Remus said as he walked to Kylie and untied the ropes.Kylie couldn’t hold it back anymore and jumped into Remus’ arms while crying. She was frightened to death. She almost bit off her tongue, thinking that she might’ve died. Remus wanted to push her away, but it seemed inhumane to do so at this moment. So, he remained motionless and comforted her. “It’s settled now. They were targeting me, so…I’m sorry.”He would take responsibility when needed. Kylie only cried harder after hearing that. She had never been kidnapped before. Then, she cried for a while more before fainting. Remus put her aside before slowly walking to Ben.“No!” Ben couldn’t help but recall his wedding day, and he wetted his pants. Then, he knocked his head on the ground repeatedly. “This was all planned by Mr. Steele. I was just following orders. This has nothing to do with me. I said all that because of his orders. Please don’t kill

    A painful scream sounded from the video, and Leonard’s face turned pale. Skylar laughed evilly. “Ben must’ve been worried that Remus wouldn’t listen to your orders, so he was even more cruel to her. But don’t you worry, Mr. Steele. We’re only targeting the enemy with the sharpest spear. However, we’re most loyal to you!”“It was Leonard Steele! He was the one who instructed me to do this! Let me go, please. I’m begging you!” Ben’s scream came from the phone again. Skylar shuddered and almost peed himself. What was his son doing? How could he betray Leonard? Did he want to die? He quickly looked at the phone screen.He froze when he laid his eyes on the phone. Ben was tied to the chair, naked. There were thousands of ants by his feet, and it looked scary. These ants slowly crawled onto him, and they stopped on his genitals. Soon, the video got too bloody to watch. Remus had his own way of dealing with scum.“Ben? Son?” Skylar yelled in shock. He couldn’t care less and rushed ou

    She was alert, and she seemed to be looking for a weapon. Seeing her reaction, Remus only smiled. Although he didn’t know how bad he looked right now, he knew he looked pretty ugly. Therefore, it was normal that she didn’t recognize him.So, Remus answered, “I’m Remus Cosby. I’m glad you’re okay.”“Remus Cosby?” Jean’s vigilance only increased. However, she suddenly laughed and said coquettishly, “You cheeky bastard. You’re too anxious. I’m dirty and covered in sweat. I’ll go take a shower, so wait for me.”Then, she walked out of the door. After that, she rushed downstairs as she didn’t know who Remus was and needed help. Unfortunately, the moment she ran out of the villa, she saw her bodyguards on the ground.“Ah!” She screamed in shock.“Jean!” Remus heard her scream and rushed over. However, he felt dizzy and fainted. When he woke up again, he was tied to a chair, and a row of people was sitting before him.Jean sat in the middle while Leonard, Skylar, and John sat beside her

    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
