Never did they expect it would develop to such an extent, it's like lifting a stone only to drop it on their own feet. If they had known earlier, they should have killed him!"This stray practitioner indeed possesses extraordinary talent and has the right to continue challenging!" Master Erjon Windrow spoke calmly."This fellow was sent in by the Shenington so it's normal for him to challenge your team. As he said, time should not be wasted." Garfield sneered."Arrogant!" Halbert shouted angrily, "How could a mere stray practitioner understand the majesty of the Shenington? How dare he provoke the Shenington? Young Saint Master, we would never tolerate this if it happened to Ryunington. We must vent this anger!"I won't interfere with your decision. I'll respect your decision!"How could they miss such an opportunity to fan the flames?They must not miss the chance to give their comments!Seeing the Masters speak up, the disciples from the other three sacred lands chuckled witho
Upon hearing this, everyone trembled once again.While the other three sacred lands were happy to see the Shenington embarrassed, they never expected Remus to be so straightforward. He was practically pushing the Shenington to its limits with his words.The disciples of the Shenington were furious."Shameless!""You're going too far!""Young Saint Master, I'm willing to go and fight. Even if it means being crushed to pieces and dying, I'll make him pay! I can't bear this humiliation!"Remus remained calm and looked up, waiting for that female disciple to speak again. Once she came down, he could see who it was!However…Richardo suddenly smiled, not responding to the disciples, nor targeting Remus.He said calmly, "I suddenly suspect now that he is a disciple secretly cultivated by the other three sacred lands, deliberately targeting the Shenington in this Grand Competition. Such a good trap!""Nonsense!" Grandmaster Carlex immediately lost his temper. He had deep conflicts w
"How could this happen!""Zander is at the middle phase of the Divine Unity Stage!"Not only them.Grandmaster Carlex, Garfield, and others were also stunned. They had thought that the disciples of the Shenington were all talk and that their own disciples would surely win. How could... they be even more embarrassed now?"I..." Zander recovered from his shock and looked at Remus standing in front of him. After listening to the voices around him, he was filled with anger. He stood up angrily, "How dare you insult me, I..."Bang!Remus didn't have the patience to listen to Zander finish his words so he knocked him away.He said indifferently, "You're too weak. If you want to continue challenging, don't just rely on empty words. You're too weak, I'm not interested in continuing the competition."Boom!The people of the Kenington had lost their temper. They felt comfortable watching him being arrogant toward the Shenington earlier, but now that he was arrogant toward them, it was
Upon hearing these words, disciples from Ryunington and Monington were filled with rage. They had seen arrogance before, but never such blatant disregard for themselves! Being chosen as disciples of a sacred land indicated that they were exceptional, each one of them was carefully selected and outstood their peers. They not only possessed strength but also pride!A disciple from Monington stood up indignantly, bowed and said, "Grandmaster Aurelius "Goldheart" Cymbal, Grandmasters, and Masters, I am a disciple of Monington. Today, I cannot tolerate it any longer. Even if you punish me when we return, I must deal with this bandit.""I will protect the dignity of Monington!"After speaking, without waiting for orders from Grandmaster Aurelius "Goldheart" Cymbal and the others, he leaped toward the island and shouted angrily, "A thousand Snowflakes!"Suddenly, the once lush island was covered in thick snowflakes drifting down from the sky. The snowflakes danced gracefully, creating a
Another disciple of Monington was defeated.Another disciple of Ryunington was also defeated!In just half a moment, six more disciples were defeated."No way!""How is this possible?""How can he be so strong?"At this moment, the disciples of Monington and Ryunington suddenly realized that they seemed to have lost. Not only one but every single one who challenged Remus!All the anger, unwillingness, and humiliation earlier suddenly turned into puzzlement, surprise, and shock!Who could have thought that so many disciples from the sacred lands couldn't defeat a mere stray practitioner?Remus asked indifferently, "Who else?"The last word was said with great volume, deafening.Only a few words shook all the disciples into silence. They didn't even dare to raise their heads because the facts had proven that they couldn't defeat him. Some disciples had already secretly cried despite that they were supposed to be the pride of the sacred lands.Why couldn't they defeat a mere s
Earlier, they were angry, wishing they could cut Remus into a thousand pieces.But now, they only wanted to make use of him. If he could stay by their side, they would have another dog that could bite!"This..."Remus pretended to hesitate but he was sneering inside. Back outside Shenington, they all called him a stray dog without support, and now they were fighting to take him as their disciple.He wondered what they would think if they knew the truth.After thinking for a moment, he said, "Fellow Grandmasters and the Young Saint Master are indeed exceptionally wise. I didn't expect you to see through it. The truth is, my purpose today wasn't to watch the competition but to join a sacred land!"Everything I did just now was merely to demonstrate my value and my desire to join a sacred land.""Really?" Grandmaster Carlex was excited."Your value is already recognized by me. Join Monington!" Grandmaster Aurelius immediately said."Let me tell you, I saw through your strength a
They were all feeling stifled inside but didn't dare to get angry. If they did, another sacred land would have the opportunity to take him away."I have a suggestion!" Remus suddenly said, "This suggestion is fair, just, and open, and it will prevent any of you from holding grudges against me. It also ensures that I won't be resented by anyone.""What suggestion?""Speak it out!""Sounds interesting!""Go ahead!"The four of them spoke up one after another.Everyone else also became curious. In such a difficult situation, he could come up with a fair decision. If it really was fair, it showed that Remus had an extraordinary mind and made them want to recruit him even more.Remus smiled faintly, "Four of you have a fight. Whoever wins will get me to join their sacred land. How about that?"What?Grandmaster Carlex Nova was dumbfounded, and so were Richardo, Grandmaster Aurelius "Goldheart" Cymbal, and Grandmaster Qwell.All the Grandmasters, Masters, and disciples were also d
"Um?"Their intense reaction startled Remus.No?Could it be that they were worried that he would defeat their core disciples in the competition after witnessing his strength? They wouldn't let him participate because they were afraid of losing face.But that didn't seem right. Their expressions earlier and Garfield's words clearly indicated they weren't worried about core disciples failing. In their minds, he was still below the core disciples. So why couldn't he participate?Grandmaster Carlex was the first to speak, "The Grand Competition is a contest among the disciples of the sacred lands. You are not yet a disciple of any sacred land so you can't participate. Quickly find a large rock and sit down to watch. Do not get involved anymore."Grandmaster Burke also spoke, "Sparring with ordinary disciples is one thing, but core disciples are not something you can handle. If they injure you, it wouldn't be good. Just go watch from aside."Compared to the others, his tone was much
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
