Glinda and Seraphine felt like they had been struck on the head. Even though they had prepared themselves when they first saw the city, they couldn't help but be surprised.It was a place that appeared only on specific days. It was only accessible for 32 hours and revered by the four great sacred lands as the most sacred place.It turned out to be Remus' Order of Nine Mysticisms! That sounded like something out of a story.Remus' eyes suddenly reddened. Although it was his first time here, only seeing the word above gave him a feeling of coming home. It made him inexplicably reassured.He felt like he was no longer the homeless stray practitioner without a place to belong!"This place was once so prosperous. I think none of the eras can compare with it. But why did it decline?"It seems like all living beings disappeared overnight. The place was also left desolate overnight. What kind of power could achieve this?"Seraphine hesitantly spoke up. She was well-versed in history and
The truth was too shocking. It shook them to their core, causing every organ in their bodies to throb.Seraphine was even startled by Glinda's shout and looked at her with confusion.Remus finally turned his gaze toward her and smiled. "Doesn't it resemble me? Remus Clayton?"Upon hearing the name Remus Clayton, Glinda instantly flushed. It was rumored in Monington that Remus Clayton had been struck by 999 Tribulation Thunder and died.Monington had asked her to impersonate Remus Clayton to avoid embarrassment in front of the other three sacred lands. Who would have guessed the real Remus Clayton was still alive? And he was Remus Cosby!Glinda's mind buzzed. She felt like she was being burned alive and couldn't believe it. "How could you be Remus Clayton? If it's you, why did you go to Monington?"There was no reason for him to go there."To find you," Remus replied.With that said, he didn't conceal anything anymore. "You were in Monington, so I joined it. Originally, I plan
"Do you feel this word is strange?" he asked.Seraphine didn't know how to read, but she wasn't foolish. After thinking for a moment, she responded, "Do you mean they're too intact? This place has been through battles and destruction. Even the plaque at the city gate was damaged, yet this can still be hung up high.""Smart!" Remus praised, swiftly getting up and walking to the plaque. He reached up to take it down.As soon as he took it down, a letter slowly slipped out.Remus caught it with his other hand. When he saw the writing on it, his excitement overflowed. It came from his master!It said, "For my beloved disciple."It was specifically left for him!Remus eagerly opened it and read the context."Haha, my dear disciple, I never deceived you, right? I told you that our Order of Nine Mysticisms was once the greatest sect, not only in martial arts but also in various other fields!"You've seen it too. If the Nine Mysticals can be passed down to today, you'll be the sect ma
Inside were two boxes, each about the size of a basin."Wow, what's this?" Seraphine exclaimed in surprise."My master left me a letter that I just got. He also left these," Remus explained. Then, he took out the boxes and opened them to expose their contents.His eyes widened as he discovered what was inside. "Spirit Vessels? And also a wine pot? No, it should be a Spirit Pot!"Inside, there were two Spirit Vessels and a 7-inch Spirit Pot with an antique appearance. It was clear that they belonged to the same set."So, these are the Spirit Vessels from Order of Nine Mysticisms?" Seraphine asked, noticing Remus' surprise. He explained everything, including the background of the other two Spirit Vessels. Unfortunately, there was no spiritual energy here, so they couldn't test it."Are there such magical treasures in the world?" Seraphine couldn't help but marvel.Remus set the box aside and opened the second box, which contained relatively more items.There was a short knife tha
If she threw it continuously, she'd always be at the peak. This golden hairpin was equivalent to the Eternal Life Tree, Shenington's heavenly style!Remus was also surprised. "I knew it. My master wouldn't cheat me!"He then picked up the knife and gently slashed forward.As the blade stretched forward, it appeared to cut open the air before resting on the Order of Nine Mysticisms' city wall. It cut straight through the city wall, and the blade didn't stop there. It continued forward, cutting off dozens of houses in Nine Mystical City until coming to a halt.It was only a gentle slash!"It's worthy of being Sacred Ruins. The things left behind are so terrifyingly astonishing!" Seraphine was still in shock, but she slowly got up. "I'll go pick up the golden hairpin."When she left, Remus returned his attention to the box.That was the last item, a book. It was titled "Nine Mystical Spell".Remus had noticed it earlier, but he hadn't paid much attention. After all, he'd been lear
Glinda soon arrived at the square in front of the main hall and saw Remus sitting on the ground, completely concentrated on reading the book. Seraphine, on the other hand, stared at him with an infatuated look.Her heart couldn't help but beat faster.Instantly, she seemed to understand why Remus, despite being so despicable, could make so many women devoted to him. She had to admit that he was indeed good to women."What am I thinking about?" Glinda hastily shook her head, dismissing her thoughts. Taking a deep breath, she approached them and asked, "What is this? Is it an ancient martial arts style that you found?"Remus was completely focused on the book and didn't respond.Seraphine slowly raised her head. Seeing Glinda, she smiled sweetly. Her guilt and agitation were gradually disappearing, replaced by boundless joy.It was like a blooming flower, pure and beautiful.Seraphine smiled. "Glinda, you're back. This is the ancient martial arts style left by Remus' master."Gli
She paused before continuing, "They'll not only stop targeting you, but they'll also sincerely apologize to you for their mistakes."Seraphine thought for a moment before speaking up, "You can also join Kenington. This way, we can stay together..."She felt dimmed. She had just met him and didn't want to part with him so soon.Remus shook his head without hiding anything. "I came here to find you two. Since I've found you, I won't join any sacred land. I'd like to ask if you two are willing to leave with me."Both of them were stunned at the same time.Seraphine didn't hesitate for a second and smiled even brighter. "I do!"She would never refuse Remus' decision.Glinda gritted her teeth, not understanding why her heart was beating faster. She responded with difficulty, "I've told you not to say those meaningless words to me. I won't be with you. I already have a spouse!"Alright, you may keep searching for treasures here. I'll leave first!"As she spoke, she quickly turned ar
As soon as he stated so, Glinda's expression shifted dramatically. Her eyes widened as she looked at Remus in disbelief as if she knew him for the first time, extremely unfamiliar.Glinda, who was standing on the side, was also shocked. Remus Calsberg? How did he have another name? What was going on?Remus wasn't surprised by her shock. He explained with a smile, "Back then—""Shut up!" Glinda abruptly interrupted, her anger flaring up. She pointed at him and yelled, "You shameless scoundrel! I know you'll do anything to get women. But I never expected you to impersonate someone else! You're Remus Calsberg? You don't have even the slightest resemblance to Remus Calsberg!"Remus Cosby, I'll only warn you the last time. I won't be with you! If you dare to use any tricks on me again, I won't hold myself back!"After saying that, she rapidly turned around and left, reaching her speed at its peak. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared.Remus stood still, stunned by the scolding. He
All along, Remus had been too focused on himself in these scenes, thinking they were memories.But if that were the case, the moments like Tyson carrying him up the mountain or being disciplined shouldn't have appeared at all, since he was too young to remember them. This resulted in a disjointed feeling between the first two sections and the ones that followed.But when he removed himself from the equation and looked at everything from a third-person perspective, he was surprised by a fact.The scenes he was seeing were all the ones that had influenced his path. Or rather, they were all significant milestones in his life!If Tyson hadn't carried him up the mountain, he wouldn't have had the chance to grow up. He would have just been an ordinary person if Tyson hadn't taught him the Nine Mystical Spells.If he hadn't gone to the prison to hand in the marriage contracts, he would have lived freely. And he wouldn't have been able to get out of prison were it not for Kylie calling of
With a calm and composed demeanor, Kaiser said, "Before I agree to your terms, I represent Darsia in setting forth three conditions. If..."Wayne interrupted immediately, "Do you or Darsia have the authority to negotiate with us? I'm giving you only two choices—agree or disagree!"…At the same time, Remus was still in the forest, or to be more precise, the scene he could see with his eyes was still of the forest. To put it even more precisely, it was the same view he had seen before, repeating over and over again."I can't change it. There's nothing I can do. I'm really stuck here. Whether this place is the so-called Limbo or not, to me, it truly is Limbo."Remus kept repeating the words over and over in a monotone, completely devoid of emotion. He had lost count of how many times it'd been repeated.Tyson's voice rang out again. "You're a child with a tough life as you lost your parents right after you were born. But at the same time, you're also a lucky child."Your father st
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
