This felt completely different from how it felt when a cultivator attacked him. When a cultivator's technique hit him, he either felt nothing or just sensed his spiritual energy being compressed. But Dillon's punch was like an impact that shook him to his core, causing a tremor in his internal organs. He could even feel a metallic taste in his throat, as though he was about to spit out blood!"You were actually able to break through my fighting spirit protection!"With a furious shout, Dillon's voice carried not just disparity but also immense anger. "How dare a lowly cultivator use such tricks in front of me? Take this!"As he spoke, he threw another punch, aiming once more at Remus' abdomen!Remus knew very well that in close combat, his speed was much slower, so running away was not an option.Using the Sky Splitter, there was only one chance—this was the first time facing someone at the level of a Half Step Martial Divinity. If one strike wasn't enough, he would be at their me
Remus blurted out, "Eva knows the truth. Just ask her! You'll know by then if I'm lying"Eva?Dillon was stunned when he heard Eva's name. He thought Remus might present some evidence or even a token, but to his surprise, it was Eva.Instinctively, the fighting spirit radiated throughout his body as he turned to look in the direction of Imperial Villa. Eva was still there and hadn't followed him, so to find out the truth, he had to return to Imperial Villa.Remus seemed to guess what he was thinking and explained immediately, "I no longer have the strength to resist. If you don't believe me, we can ask Eva. If she proves that I was lying to you, then it won't be too late to take action."His words clearly swayed Dillon.He shifted his gaze back and said coldly, "You're right. I'll take you back to Imperial Villa. But if you dare to deceive me, I'll start with your woman and kill them right in front of you!"The Cosby Army was extremely important and represented a significant for
"What are you doing? Let go!""Remus!"The two women suddenly rushed toward Eva.Dillon instinctively raised his hand to knock the two people away, but he stopped just as his fighting spirit began to stir. It wasn’t because he didn’t want to hit women; rather, their actions happened to interrupt Eva, making the questioning process smoother.Indeed, the two women, one on the left and one on the right, surprisingly pulled Eva off of Remus.It was just that…"Get lost!"After all, Eva was a warrior, and even in her extremely weakened state, she was still more than a match for them. With a sudden burst of strength, she knocked the two of them down and once again charged toward Remus like a madwoman.Dillon shook his head inwardly and was surprised by how foolish Remus' women were. Then again, it made sense; Remus himself was nothing but a pretentious fraud, so how clever could his women really be?He had to stop them.A sudden surge of fighting spirit rooted Eva to the spot."Ar
"Are you intentionally hiding your abilities?"Dillon's face suddenly turned grim.At this point, there was only one explanation. After all, his abilities just now were plain for everyone to see, and he was no different from a defenseless chick. Even Eva could easily overpower him.Remus took a deep breath and felt a tingling sensation in his arm, but his expression remained unchanged. He exuded a cold aura at this moment.He said coldly, "You can harm me, but you cannot harm my women. If you intend to target them, then you have only one ending, which is death!""How unbelievably arrogant!"Dillon suddenly shouted angrily as his long-held hatred erupted all at once. Not only did this person mess with him, but he also boasted and taunted him! Who did Remus think he was?Without any hesitation, Dillon unleashed his fighting spirit and threw a powerful punch at Remus."Remus!""Remus!"Jean and Husan shouted nervously.Remus smiled slightly. He did not retreat even a single ste
It sounded like a balloon bursting. Dillon was already gone from Remus' feet. He had already been crushed into dust and blown away by the wind, leaving only footprints on the stone ground."Remus, are you fine?""Remus, are you okay?"Jean and Husan rushed downstairs and ran to Remus' side, their faces full of concern.Until this moment, a slight smile finally appeared on Remus' face. "I'm okay. Sorry you had to go through that tonight. Does it hurt?"They were pushed by Eva and had scratches on their arms.Both girls shook their heads simultaneously, simply looking at Remus with concern.At that very moment, from the side of the Imperial Villa, a figure dressed in tattered clothes emerged from the forest. His clothes were reduced to rags, with visible wounds on his body. His hair was disheveled and his eyes carried a deep, eerie resentment. If any passerby were to see him, they'd likely faint from fright on the spot.But the three of them immediately recognized that she was Ev
Footsteps could be heard.Garth paced back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back.Philbert and Serg were still sitting down, but they felt uneasy.As individuals at the pinnacle of global power, they rarely encountered moments like this. However, today's events were truly monumental, as they were facing Dragon Protector Clan's number one major threat.Besides, it also concerned Eva's safety, so no one could stay calm.Garth suddenly stopped in his tracks.Seeing him stop, Philbert and Serg froze as well. They watched him with anticipation, hoping he would say something, as the current atmosphere was extremely tense."Alas…" Garth let out a breath and then continued pacing. He felt extremely anxious. From what Dillon had said, it should have been an easy task to kill Remus, so why hadn't there been any news yet?Then, there was a beeping noise.Garth's communication device suddenly started making noise.He was momentarily stunned and quickly took out his communi
Serg was stunned, and he was unsure of what to say.Garth was boiling with rage as he struggled to find a way to release it. He quickly stepped forward and delivered a heavy slap. "I thought you were capable, so I've usually tolerated you, but it turns out you're just all show and no action. If it weren't for your secret actions, Eva wouldn't have died in vain. It's all your fault!"That was right, in his mind, Eva must be dead; otherwise, how could Remus be using her communicator?Serg was so scared that his legs gave out, and he collapsed on the ground. He often blustered and bragged, but seeing Garth truly angry terrified him.Garth was growing increasingly angry and was about to step forward again.Philbert hurriedly intervened with sweat beading on his forehead. "Sir Garth, the most pressing issue was not about Mr. Schneider but rather two things. First, is Ms. Eva still alive? Second of all…"He paused, feeling a bit reluctant to speak, but he had to say it anyway. "Remus h
It rained and was windy all night.It was a night full of thrills as well.Remus finally realized that even ordinary days could be so peaceful. Although there was pain, there was also joy!"Ah..."Remus was startled awake by a sharp cry. As he suddenly sat up, a wave of intense pain swept through his body, making him grimace.Who could imagine that a cultivator at the peak of the Divine Separation Stage, which was the Martial Imperial Realm, would be so tired out?Before he could get out of bed, he heard a scream coming from downstairs."Ana, why are you back again? Why are you at Imperial Villa?" The voice belonged to Kylie.Remus was taken aback. Ana? Surely it must be Eva!He suddenly remembered that after coming back last night, he was held down on the bed by Jean and Husan, and forgot to call Anthony to have him bring Eva away.So Eva was still here?Remus had a bad feeling. Although Eva may seem delicate, she was truly a warrior. The way warriors recover was entirely d
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
