Wilda thought she didn't need to worry about them having any hidden agendas, either. If they dared to make a move against Remus, there was no need for them to hold back anymore.Besides, considering Remus' ability that allowed him to kill Burke and Merlion, he would definitely be safe.After thinking for a moment, Wilda realized that it made more sense to let him attend the feast than to stop him.She turned to look at Remus and tentatively suggested, "If you can stay for a bit, how about try attending the feast?"Remus was well aware of her intentions. She simply hoped that he and Monington would get along better, but he didn't think it was necessary.Shaking his head, he said, "The situation outside is very urgent…"Before he could finish speaking, Wilda suddenly spoke, "I'll choose you!"Remus was taken aback for a moment, but then he quickly realized the meaning of those words. He couldn't help but look over, feeling a rush of blood through his entire body. He was more excit
"Mr. Cosby!" Even though they were laughing within, they all wore enthusiastic smiles on the surface, as if having Remus over was a great blessing.Remus remained silent. His expression was serious, and he didn't respond at all."Over here." Aurelius maintained his humble demeanor and gestured toward the main seat. "Mr. Cosby, please take this seat. Wilda and Glinda, you two can sit on either side of Mr. Cosby."Wilda and Glinda were both taken aback for a moment. Typically, it should be Aurelius sitting in the main seat, not due to abilities or conflicts, but simply because this was Monington.Even though they were all cultivators, they still valued the practical preparations of everyday life.Without giving them much time to think, Remus had already stepped toward the main seat. Such a trivial matter wasn't worth the effort to decline and waste time. In other words, if he acted too modestly, these snobbish people might not know how to handle it.Seeing Remus' actions, everyone
When Remus mentioned these two names, the atmosphere in the entire room felt like it had been doused with cold water. The smiles on everyone's faces instantly froze.Remus noticed the tense atmosphere and asked with a frown, "Did something happen to them?"Everyone avoided eye contact, not daring to meet his gaze.Wilda pondered for a moment and then said, "Sir Hudson has been punished with three years of confinement and is currently imprisoned in the ice prison. As for Ms. Elena…"As she spoke, she couldn't help but look toward Aurelius.She knew that Hudson was punished for letting Remus go, but she didn't know about Elena.The last time they met was when they returned from Boundless Island together. After that, she was confined to a cabin, and she didn't have the chance to think about Elena tonight when so many things had happened.Remus asked coldly, "Is Sir Hudson being punished because of me?"Wilda nodded, so Remus turned his head to look at Aurelius and asked, "Where is
Remus snapped back to reality and looked ahead. Perhaps for the sake of architectural uniformity, the place appeared to be just an ordinary loft.He glanced at Wilda out of the corner of his eye and saw that her expression was unchanged, which confirmed that this was indeed the ice prison.After a brief moment of thought, he cautiously asked, "There's a saying that you shouldn't have the intent to harm others, but it's necessary to be wary of others. If I enter the ice prison, you won't lock me in, will you?"As soon as these words were spoken, everyone jolted, especially Aurelius. He had indeed entertained such thoughts because he had no idea when Kylian might arrive.What if Remus left before Kylian got there? Locking Remus up in the ice prison was a great idea!But Aurelius immediately responded, "Certainly not, Mr. Cosby. We genuinely wish to reconcile with you. How could we possibly engage in such despicable acts?""That's right, Mr. Cosby. Why would we do such a thing?""W
This made no sense!Soon, only Remus and Hudson were left inside the ice prison.Remus' expression became serious as he directly asked, "Sir Hudson, both you and Ms. Elena helped me leave back then. You're locked up here, but do you know where Ms. Elena is?"Of course, he knew that Elena was imprisoned later. After all, she did go to Boundless Island. But the main point was that she was imprisoned, and the other details didn't matter.Hudson still wanted to ask what exactly was going on and why Remus could command Monington's people. But, upon hearing Remus' question, he could only suppress his curiosity.Shaking his head, he said, "I don't know. After I was put in the ice prison, Elena never showed up. She's not in the ice prison."Remus asked, "Besides the ice prison, are there any other places of confinement in Monington?"The real reason he wanted Aurelius and the others to leave was so that he could ask Hudson these questions.Hudson shook his head again. "No. Monington on
Remus suddenly froze in place, his entire body breaking out in goosebumps.He had only ever felt this kind of overwhelming pressure from one person before—Ryunington's Saint Master. Could it be that he had arrived?"Remus…" Wilda and Glinda were about to speak when they saw him come out. But both only managed to say a single word before they felt an overwhelming presence and immediately fell silent. They instinctively turned to look.The gleam in Aurelius' and others' eyes grew stronger as they also turned.The sky above Monington, surrounded by a formation, seemed to split open, and a figure slowly emerged from the opening.He wore a sky-blue robe with his long hair flowing, one hand behind his back, and a hint of anger on his face. He looked like an Immortal descending to the mortal world."It's Shenington's Saint Master, Kylian!" Hudson was the first to recognize the person and couldn't help but exclaim.Saint Masters of the Four Great Sacred Lands rarely appeared in other sa
Before Glinda could finish, Aurelius acted in a flash, sending a surge of spiritual energy straight to Glinda's face.Glinda couldn't handle the attack. She spun six or seven times in the air before crashing heavily to the ground."Glinda!" Seeing the situation, Remus tried to get up and rush over despite the intense pain. He was filled with deep regret. If he ever got another chance, he would ensure Aurelius died a painful death.But he had only taken two steps when Kylian suddenly spoke up."Enough!" Still standing mid-air, he looked down from above. "This isn't the place to kill you. Come with me!"Remus needed to be executed at Shenington. Only there, in front of all the deceased disciples, could he atone for his sins.He already raised his hand as he spoke. His spiritual energy leaked out, ready to capture Remus.Upon seeing the situation, Aurelius and his companions finally showed a relieved smile on their faces. With Remus dead, they no longer had to live in constant fear
No matter what, Remus must be dealt with that day. No one could stop them!The disciples, who were originally charging at Kylian, halted in confusion upon hearing Aurelius' words. They stared at Kylian, a stranger and seemingly about to attack their sacred land. Why was Aurelius stopping him?At that moment, Wilda had a sudden idea. She quickly shouted, "All disciples of Monington, listen up! An outsider has entered Monington with ill intentions toward us. We will defend our sacred land to the death!"Saying this was not to use the Monington disciples as human shields or to send them to their deaths but to get an advantage over the situation. How many people they could command at the moment would equal more power.As long as Monington's disciples were riled up and would support them, even Aurelius would not dare to act rashly or give orders lightly.Indeed, when the disciples heard Wilda's words, they shouted instinctively, "Defend Monington to the death!"Thousands of disciples
