Wilda slowly turned to look at Glinda."I'm sorry, Ms. Hewitt. I'm really sorry." Glinda kept attacking the hidden entrance, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get through.This formation was beyond her understanding. She couldn't help but think that if Remus were here, he would surely have a way to break it."Move aside!" Wilda shouted suddenly.When Glinda heard this, she quickly dodged. At the same time, Wilda suddenly let her spiritual energy dissipate, leaving only the spiritual energy around herself.At the moment of release, the ground shook, and the trees swayed. Even Monington's peak was shaking.After all, individuals from the Great Realm of Enlightenment and the Divine Unity Stage had joined forces. One could imagine how terrifyingly powerful their attacks were.Following that, Wilda was forcefully thrown against the cliff wall by the hidden passage's entrance due to the aftershock.She slid down against the wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood that sta
The person suddenly appeared in everyone's view without any warning.Everyone tried desperately to take a better look at the person, wanting to know exactly who it was.What kind of person could it be that warranted such heavy protection from Monington? How could they compel Aurelius to say they were indescribable?But they didn't need to take a better look at them, as everyone immediately recognized who it was."Remus?""It's you!"Sure enough, the person was Remus, who had just emerged from the passage.At that moment, a sound that almost sounded like a dying breath rang out from the crowd. All the disciples widened their eyes, utterly terrified.The faces of all the Masters, Temple Lords, and Chiefs turned pale, as if their blood had stopped flowing.All the Grandmasters were so shocked that their mouths were wide open, especially Aurelius. His expression also changed drastically, and he quickly took three steps back.Wilda and Glinda were standing side by side, also in di
The Masters and Temple Lord all took a few steps back. Aurelius and the others couldn't stop the trembling in their fingertips.Was he making any sense? Even with all of their combined efforts, they couldn't break open the secret passage. Yet, Remus called it ordinary and said it couldn't lock him up."Um…" Wilda standing nearby was equally stunned.She had clearly seen the strength of the secret passage's defenses. But at the same time, she also saw how he simply walked out of the passage, so there was no way to refute the fact that he did get out easily.What they needed to think about now was just how strong Remus was.It seemed like he was only at the peak of the Divine Separation Stage, and his spiritual energy wasn't even at its peak condition at the moment!Could it be that his spiritual energy was consumed from breaking the formation? But he still had at least half of his spiritual energy left.If that were the case, wouldn't half of his spiritual energy be more than the
Glinda's statement came like a sudden thunderclap out of a clear sky, resounding in all directions. It felt like a huge blow to everyone present.They thought Wilda could speak up for them and get them out of this, but unexpectedly, Glinda exposed them mercilessly.Aurelius, the Masters, and the Temple Lord were scared out of their wits, while the disciples were so scared they didn't even dare to breathe.Remus' gaze suddenly became sharp. Although he had guessed the truth, hearing it directly from Glinda still felt different."Remus!" Wilda quickly thought on her feet. She stepped in front of Remus and said firmly, "This is my own issue. It has nothing to do with you!"Look at it this way, we are all Monington's people. Though we have internal conflicts, if you act against them, not only will I not appreciate it, I will even be on their side!"At times like these, it was crucial to exaggerate things. Otherwise, no one could guarantee whether Remus would go on a rampage.Upon he
At the same time, Aurelius led the group back to the mountaintop. Behind him were the Masters, Temple Lord, and all the disciples from Monington. The scene was grand and imposing, but the atmosphere was notably somber.Each of them felt as if a heavy stone was weighing down on their hearts, making it hard for them to breathe. And this stone wasn't just any ordinary stone—it was Remus!When they were halfway up the mountain, all the Grandmasters and Masters kept moving forward. Meanwhile, the disciples gradually began to slow down because they had reached their living quarters.Even though they were curious to see what would happen next, no one dared to follow after seeing Aurelius' stern expression. They could only return to their quarters.Aurelius continued leading the rest of them up to the mountain summit.Once they arrived at the hall, Aurelius' spiritual energy unexpectedly burst out, colliding with the air and producing a deafening sound. His expression was terrifyingly gri
At the foot of the mountain, Remus found himself surprisingly not shocked at all after hearing what Wilda said. In fact, he felt a sense of relief because, from the very beginning, he hadn't felt confident in front of Wilda.In terms of strength, Wilda was on the verge of achieving immortality. As for Remus himself, he did have some skills, but they were not that impressive when compared to hers."Why?" It wasn't Remus but Glinda who asked that. "Ms. Hewitt, what’s wrong with Remus? He's the best man in the world. Truly, there's no one better than him."Marrying him is your best option, and you two have been engaged for a while already. How can you so easily call off the engagement?"Wilda looked at her and remembered when she first found out that she was from True Life.She specifically asked if she knew Remus, and back then, her response was straightforward. "He's a jerk. I wish I could tear him into pieces."Everything had changed now, but it didn't matter.Wilda looked back
Remus noticed Wilda's confusion and took the initiative to explain, "Setting aside the issue of the engagement, you once tried to save my life."Even though it didn't succeed, it doesn't negate the fact that you took action because you wanted to save me. So, you are my lifesaver, and I naturally have no right to make any further demands."Yes, he had always believed that a small act of kindness should be repaid with a greater act of gratitude.Wilda's face turned red with embarrassment upon hearing this. "I am not your lifesaver. I failed to save you every time. Your survival to this day is due to your own fortune and has little to do with me!"After all, she couldn't protect him in Monington or Boundless Island."If you're planning on looking for a spouse in the future, what kind of person would they be?" Remus suddenly asked.Wilda was caught off guard because she had never considered this question before. The reason she could achieve such abilities at her age was that she was
Remus and Wilda locked eyes with each other and gazed into each other's eyes.Remus remained silent, waiting for an answer. Meanwhile, Wilda also didn't say anything because she didn't know how to respond.Should she refuse? She could, but the problem was that if she ever did want to find a spouse one day, it seemed there wouldn't be anyone more suitable than Remus.Just as they were gazing at each other, the sound of the wind came from the side. It interrupted the moment, causing both to look over at the same time.When they spotted the newcomer, both of them frowned at the same time. It was none other than Aurelius, who was so afraid earlier that he even humiliated himself. As Monington's Grandmaster, he had already degraded himself to the point of utmost humility.It was just unfortunate that Wilda no longer liked him. So, Remus viewed him as a person who only cared about personal gain.Aurelius noticed the two gazing at him and a shadow of doubt flickered in his eyes. He may
Suddenly, Wayne's smile vanished. "The Mortal Realm deserves no more chances! Ever since Remus decided to stand against the Upper Realms and you all started to give him your devotion, you don't get a second chance!"That treacherous dog dared to aspire to be a Monarch of Mortals and oppose the Upper Realms. Such arrogance! As his accomplices, you all deserve to be punished and shouldn't expect to retain any power."Starting today, all conditions set by the Upper Realms must be met. Otherwise, the Mortal Realm will be thrown into chaos! People will struggle to survive, famine will spread, and the sun and moon will lose their light! Just do as we tell you to!"Everyone was stunned. Then, the people below all shouted in unison, "You're being too shameless!"Their voices rose higher and higher, shaking the earth.Their respect for Kaiser was because he was the president, but their devotion to Remus was complete and unwavering. Insulting Remus was seen as an attack on their beliefs and
"You're shameless!" Ana and Eva snapped, both furious. At that moment, it seemed like they finally understood the purpose of the Dragon Protector Clan's existence. Being powerless to fight back felt incredibly frustrating and suffocating."He's going too far!" Grant also couldn't help but curse when he saw the scene.After all, Kaiser was the president and represented Darsia's 1.4 billion citizens. How could he possibly be slapped repeatedly? Wayne was straight-up an insignificant being who was behaving irrationally now that he had newfound power!Paul sighed, feeling in his heart that it was really unfair. But what else could the Mortal Realm do but endure the mistreatment?Kaiser felt a burning sensation on his face. The physical pain wasn't a big concern for him as he had prepared himself for the worst, even death. But it wasn't just him who was affected by the slap. This slap was a humiliation to all of Darsia's citizens all at once.However, Kaiser had no means of fighting ba
When Kaiser heard this, he involuntarily trembled, not out of fear but because he was infuriated. It was clear from Wayne's tone that there was a strong sense of disdain, even outright contempt!The ten women also looked angry. The 1.4 billion citizens were silently clenching their fists. The previous grievances hadn't been avenged, and now they were showing off their power again. Did Wayne think he could treat the Mortal Realm however he wanted?Though Kaiser was upset, he couldn't express it. As the president, any impulsive decision would have to be borne by all the citizens, so it was crucial to proceed with caution.He replied, "Mr. Morrow, you should know that forcing something doesn't yield good results. If you try to force the outcome that the Upper Realms desire, it may backfire. Instead, consider easing up a bit, and you might achieve a different, perhaps better, outcome."If they couldn't fight back, they could only try to reach a compromise.However, what no one expecte
"The emperor attacked from the outside, while Candace's attack came from within!"Remus paused once again. This time, he stayed silent for about 10 minutes before looking up at the sky with excitement and exclaiming, "I understand now!"The true sequence of events was like this: Candace did intend to kill me, and I was indeed on the verge of disappearing, but the Pathic Energies' protection prevented me from vanishing.""The truth is exactly what I initially thought. If I compare it to humans, my specter has been severed from my body but hasn't left it. It's more like my specter has been forcibly sealed within my body! That's it!"Although the conclusion reached was the same as initially, the evidence used to support it was completely different. It could be said that he had guessed correctly initially, but now it was confirmed as true!"If in the Mortal Realm, one can be revived if their specter merges with their body. So, right now, I should be able to wake up once I merge with m
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
