Chapter 19
Author: Oldwell
“In recent years, Skylar Group has been known as the fastest-growing company in Neptuna, and I have contributed significantly to its growth. So may I ask why can’t I be compared to Remus Cosby?!”

Skylar secretly agreed. His son was a hundred times more outstanding than Remus. He wanted to see how Jean would reply to Ben.

Jean stared at Ben and slowly said, “Because you’re like the horse that others ride!”

Immediately, there was a burst of laughter. This matter was circled in Neptuna gossip, but no one dared to say it in public. Who knew Jean would be so cruel to say it publicly?

“I…” Ben was speechless and wanted to hide from the shame. Skylar lowered his head and felt the laughter was ear-piercing. Elias dared not speak. The atmosphere became less tense.

Then, to smooth out the atmosphere, Remus spoke a few words, and they started to drink.

After he toasted all the tables, he returned to the reception room upstairs. In that room were those who had entered the hall last.

    When Remus folded his last finger…“Pfft…” Max vomited blood without any warning. He was sitting on the sofa, but after he vomited, he fell to the floor and fainted.All of the people were shocked by the scene. Then, it was chaos. Even Frank and Jean were dumbfounded.“Commander Baxton!”“Uncle Max!”“Quick! Call an ambulance immediately!”In just a few seconds, everyone in the reception room was utterly roused. Max Baxton was the provincial war commander. If something happened to him, it would incite mutiny in the war department, and the consequences could be disastrous.“It’s useless. Before the ambulance arrives, he’ll be dead,” Remus calmly said.Everyone looked at Remus simultaneously and noticed that he recognized that Max had a health issue.“Are you a doctor?” someone asked.“Guess.”“Can you save Commander Baxton?” another person asked.“Guess.” “I’m ordering you to save Commander Baxton now!” The mayor of Neptuna was suddenly angry. This was his territory, and h

    Frank, who had been silent, finally spoke. He was observing the situation to see if any changes would occur. However, it was unexpected that Remus was talented.The others remembered Remus commenting that Frank would rather die!Then, Frank slowly got up. "I'll leave with you two. Let's find another place to chat.""No need. I don't have time to chat," Remus directly refused. He wanted to chat with Jean privately. There was no time for him to consult patients. Plus, it was not like he treated anyone. Jean had a pleading look after hearing what Remus said. In the end, the three of them left together. Jean couldn't help but ask, "Remus, how did you know Uncle Max would…"It was miraculous, as he only took a look and noticed the problem. Furthermore, he could even estimate the exact time of death, which was unbelievable.Frank also listened. Over the years, he had met many talented doctors, but this was the first time he witnessed such a marvelous skill.Remus calmly laughed, "I

    Max was instantly even more furious. The others in the room flew into a rage. Remus angered Max to the point that he vomited blood. Why should Max thank him? How could someone be so shameless and even say the commander was an idiot?Jean panicked and could no longer hold Max back. "Remus Cosby! Stop talking and run while you can!"However, Remus did not run, and instead said, "Your stomach is damaged, so when you're angry, you'll feel a tightness in your chest. You will also experience dizziness and vomit blood. Moreover, your intestines are also damaged, so you have digestion problems. Because you smoke, there's some problem with your lungs. Also, your heart—sometimes it beats too fast and occasionally stops. Is everything I said right?"Suddenly, Max stopped struggling and was astonished. Due to his status, not many people knew about his health conditions. How did Remus know all of that so well?Remus glanced at Dent and calmly said, "Since you're such a talented doctor and you'v

    Jean laughed and sat up from the sofa. She looked serious and asked, “What’s happening? I think my illness is cured. I’m going to take a bath. Why don’t we…take it together? We can get clean while you treat my illness.”Remus could feel the blood in his body boiling, and something in him was about to lose control. Before he could answer, Jean stood up. “Your silence means rejection. I’m so sad. Fine, I’ll get clean myself then. Hey, you’re not allowed to peek, okay?”Then, she quickly went upstairs in her evening gown.Remus was left speechless. Only when she was gone did he remember about cancelling the marriage! At the same time, the news of Remus becoming Jean’s chosen business partner was spread across Neptuna. Everyone got the news and inquired about who Remus was.Ultimately, they all discovered that he had just finished his prison sentence! This discovery, however, disappointed everyone, and many secretly scolded Jean for being ignorant!Unfortunately, no one could chan

    On the second day, Remus went downstairs after washing up. He saw Jean wearing an apron in the kitchen, and she had prepared a bountiful breakfast.When Jean heard him coming down, she quickly sat down. “You’re awake? Quick, have breakfast. Then, you’ll have the energy to cure me. I feel like I’m coming down with another fever.”Remus was speechless and secretly cursed. Master Tyson said he wasn’t allowed to lose his virginity without permission!Remus sat opposite her and said, “Let’s not eat yet. I have something to tell you!”The marriage cancellation couldn’t be delayed. He still had six fiancées to deal with. Then, he had to return to prison and wait for Master Tyson. In other words, even if Jean was right before him, he couldn’t do anything before meeting his master.In reply, Jean gave him a cute response. She was sitting appropriately, but her gaze was flirty, and she was constantly blinking at him. When Remus met her gaze, he suddenly didn’t know what to say. Considerin

    "Shut up!" Jean cut her off angrily. "I have a much better understanding than you on how to choose a suitable candidate. I believe that Remus has potential and will become a force to be reckoned with. He will not disappoint me! I don't want to hear you degrading him from now on, understand?"The Imperial Villa was one of Adam's properties, and he was honorably given the title of Working Emperor. Jean knew Adam well, and he wouldn't have lent out his mansion to anyone if he wasn’t close to them. So, it showed that Remus had a special bond with Adam and must have learned how to manage a business!"Understood." Naomi stopped resisting and gave Remus the documents. "Mr. Remus, here are all the documents. Please check if there are any issues." Remus was on the verge of breaking down as he was clueless about business management. "Remus, have confidence in yourself." Jean looked at him sincerely. "I believe you'll succeed one day and make everyone look up to you, okay?"Meeting her gaz

    All the employees at the Lotus Corp were startled, and their faces were pale. Naomi was excited when she heard the security guards yelling. She mocked, “Mr. Cosby, security is here. They come with ill intent, so please handle this matter appropriately!”It might be easy to beat up one guy, but she didn’t believe he could fight a group. If the security guards took him down, he probably wouldn’t have the face to continue as the Lotus’ business partner!“There’s no need to panic. I can handle it,” Remus replied indifferently and walked out of his office. Outside were a dozen ferocious guards, and the leader was furious. When he saw Remus, he glared at him and shouted, “You’re Remus Cosby? How are you going to compensate for beating up my man?!” The other security guards were agitated and followed.“Who do you think you are to beat up a security guard?”“I’ll smack you, you better believe it!”Typically, these guards wouldn’t have the guts to create such a commotion. They had to

    All the guards were beaten to the ground and were shouting in pain. None of them could get up!Naomi was shocked, thinking that Remus might be a monster. Even the employees were dumbfounded and felt like Remus was a beast in human form. The leader of the security guards, who was kneeling, trembled in fear.“The stakes have been raised. All of you will kneel and apologize. If not, each person will lose a leg.” Remus clapped his hands and walked to the leader. “Let’s start with you. You must apologize with sincerity, got it?”Terrified, the leader was drenched in sweat. He quickly looked toward Naomi. She made them come up and create a commotion. Otherwise, they wouldn’t dare to do so, so she had to save them.Therefore, Naomi bit the bullet and said, “Mr. Cosby, only gangsters use violence to handle problems. You can’t use force. Once this matter is spread, how would others look at the Coxs? Why would they cooperate with us then? So, you must convince others with virtue instead!”I

    In the end, this issue was still raised.Kaiser's lips twitched slightly. He had been wondering the same thing but didn't have the chance to ask.Discomfort also appeared on the ghost kings' faces. They had naturally thought about the matter, too, but due to their fear of Francis, they didn't know how to bring it up. Moreover, considering Francis' demeanor, it seemed fine not to ask.But now that Roman had voiced that question, all they could do was wait for Francis' response.Francis asked casually, "Why do YOU think Amez helped me and let me return?"Roman remained unfazed. "I'm not sure. That's why I need you to answer!"Francis looked at him intently and replied, "Alright, I suppose it's not just you who wants to know. The others are probably curious, too."In that case, I'll tell you. The reason I gave Amez is straightforward—I wanted to return for revenge. Amez believed that my revenge against you all would be highly effective, which was why he decided to help me recover."

    Based on the analysis, this was indeed the case. Remus had been gone for so long, and the fact that Tyson, as his mentor, hadn't shown up yet was quite unusual. So, what was he planning?Just as everyone was speculating, Francis suddenly spoke up. "Amez is coming with Amelicon's deities."Everyone suddenly turned to look at him, their eyes widening uncontrollably. Did he just say Amez was about to arrive?Even though they already knew they would be coming, hearing it directly from Francis was still quite shocking.Francis ignored their expressions and continued, "So, no matter what the Monarch's mentor is plotting, it no longer matters. The most important thing right now is figuring out how to get through the present situation."Everyone else's expression became serious. Francis' words made sense.Bringing up Tyson was merely a distraction from their argument about the Three Realms' ruler. While it was important to investigate what Tyson was planning, it was less significant comp

    "It can only be me!" Francis immediately added.As soon as these words were spoken, everyone instinctively looked at Roman. Since none of them were eligible to compete, Francis' comments were directed solely at him. How would he respond?Roman's expression changed, and he was unsure of how to respond. If he acknowledged Francis, wouldn't that mean admitting defeat, rendering all his previous efforts futile? Additionally, it was embarrassing.But if he refused to acknowledge Francis, his current capabilities just didn't allow it. There was no way for him to win against Francis at the moment. What should he do?After a moment of reflection, he replied, "With external threats looming, it's too early to consider this issue. We don't even know if we can withstand the current challenge. If we manage to get through it, there's still time to think about that later."He could only delay the matter now.Francis said calmly, "It's precisely because we are facing external threats that there

    Finally, Roman crashed against the giant blade, and a sudden loud boom rang out.Then, something completely unexpected happened—the massive blade suddenly shattered like glass. Countless fragments scattered through the air like shooting stars, flying a short distance away before disappearing completely.As for Roman, he remained in the same spot where the massive blade used to be, completely unharmed.Roman burst into an exaggerated and unprecedented laugh, echoing continuously through the space."Why did this happen?""Could it be that the emperor has had a secret plan all along?""But the emperor wasn't protected by any energy. He shouldn't have been able to shatter the giant blade.""Why..."The four ghost kings were utterly shocked and couldn't believe their eyes. They knew very well just how terrifying the blade was.Perhaps in their prime, they might have been able to withstand it, but in their current state, they couldn't even be sure they could dodge it. Yet, Roman did

    Even at this point, Roman still couldn't believe Francis would truly act against him.His reasoning was still the same—he didn't believe Francis would just stand by and watch as Darsia was destroyed and its people perish. He didn't believe Francis would simply watch this land be devastated and taken over by outsiders!"Of course!" Francis responded succinctly, and as soon as these words were spoken, the blade started dropping down on Roman.The ghost kings' expressions drastically changed, filled with terror in an instant, forgetting to even fight back.On the other hand, Roman knew he had to defend himself but continued to persevere, not believing that Francis would go to such extremes.But at that moment, Kaiser shouted from below, "Wait!"Kaiser had witnessed the entire scene and was already completely stunned by the suddenness of everything. He was momentarily in a daze, but when he saw the giant blade descending, he realized that if he didn't speak up now, it would be too la

    Hearing these straightforward words, Roman, the four ghost kings, and Kaiser were all stunned. They couldn't help but widen their eyes in shock. Why would Amez help him recover? The implications behind this fact were hugely problematic."Why… Why did he help you recover?" Roman still asked.The ghost kings were trembling more and more noticeably. Kaiser also began to shake uncontrollably because he already had a bad feeling about the situation.Francis openly stated, "Because I promised to be his inside contact for attacking Darsia, making it easier for him to take over this land. Do you think there's any other reason he would help me?"Francis burst into laughter, one that was openly and extremely mocking, deeply disdainful.The four ghost kings stepped back simultaneously upon hearing these words, driven by a mix of fear, but also because it was an uncontrollable reaction.To be honest, just facing Francis alone was already beyond their capabilities. Even more daunting was the

    Roman and the four ghost kings were in the process of recharging their energy in the sky. Below them, Candace continued spacing out.Meanwhile, in the Mortal Realm, Kaiser and Remus' partners were secretly searching for Tyson while simultaneously managing production.As days went by, the general public remained unaffected because they were unaware of the impending crisis. Instead, they were excited about the expansion of the country's territory and the stability in society.A week had gone by. Although there hadn't been any news from abroad, and everything seemed calm, Roman and Kaiser knew that this was simply the calm before the storm.On the eighth day, something was finally happening outside of Darsia.Roman suddenly opened his eyes, and the four ghost kings did the same. They could sense a powerful energy coming from outside the domain, rushing toward them and about to reach the lower border, which forced them to be on high alert.Even Candace showed up voluntarily, looking

  • Chapter 2997

    When Kaiser heard this, he was completely stunned, looking at Candace in astonishment. It felt like a glimmer of hope had formed in his heart.Indeed, Remus had a mentor who provided him with the marriage contracts. In theory, Tyson arranged everything for Remus. But why had he never appeared since Remus' release from prison? It didn't make sense!Could he have died? Was it possible for someone like him? That didn't make sense, either! So Tyson was definitely somewhere out there. Could he be the key to saving Darsia?Noticing Kaiser was taking a long time to respond, Candace's expression turned serious. "You have to find this person, no questions asked! This is an order!"Her tone was very serious, as if she would immediately attack if Kaiser dared say no.Kaiser glanced at her but didn't pay much attention to her tone. Although he hadn't interacted with her before, he was aware she was a demon and couldn't be judged with normal human logic. Besides, with Darsia's current situatio

    The ghost kings and Kaiser looked over at the same time.Roman gazed into the distance and resolutely added, "I understand him. Even though he hates everyone in the Three Realms, he was once our ruler. His love for these realms surpasses anyone else's."No matter how much he hates us, there's no way he'd stand by and watch outsiders trample this land. He would never betray us!"Hearing this, everyone fell silent. It was indeed a reason that couldn't be argued against, but it remained at the level of belief without any tangible evidence to back it up. It sounded too feeble and hollow.They really wanted to believe Roman's words, but they weren't sure how to put their faith in them.Roman also understood their thoughts and didn't explain further. He simply said, "Begin meditating to restore your energy as quickly as possible. Regardless of the outcome, we must not let anyone trample Darsia's Three Realms."With that, he was the first to sit cross-legged in the air.The four ghost
