Oftentimes, there was no need to waste your breath. It was easier to just take action!For a foolish clown like Sonny, he needed to be shown that his actions have consequences.Yet, after waiting for an entire minute, the restaurant door was empty. None of the staff or even the security guards made a move. "Pfft…" The people bursted into laughter. "Where are his security guards? How are they not here? Could it be that they don't take orders from him anymore?" "He still thinks that he's Ms. Lotus' partner, and that he's some kind of big shot. Little does he know, he has become a nobody!" "Even the security guards don't take orders from him. This is too funny, haha!"At this moment, everyone turned toward Remus. It was as if they were watching a clown. Remus was also surprised. Other businesses were bought under Lotus' name, but Neptuna Hotel was bought directly under his name. How could they not listen to him?"Where are your security guards?"Looking down from above, Son
"Remus, I'll kill you! You better beg for mercy!" Sonny bellowed. He never expected Remus to dare make a move.He continued yelling, "Release me this instant! Otherwise, I will make the rest of your life a living hell!"Remus did not bother to reply and continued to turn his head with his feet."Mr. Bryant will never let you off easily! He will never!" The influencer exclaimed between sobs.Remus also turned her head towards the ground.Since they insisted on resisting, he would play along. After all, he was not the one who was in pain.The surrounding customers' hearts raced as they watched the scene unfold. This guy was being too reckless. Did he not want to live the rest of his life anymore? Did he not want to live to see tomorrow?In that moment, the sound of clapping could be heard from a distance, one after another, in a rhythmic and regular pattern.The crowd turned their heads towards the sound and quickly stood up, gathering around and showing concern."Mr. Stuart!"
When Eddie finished speaking, his expression turned sour, filled with disdain.It was not only him, but the others were also on Ben's side, looking at Remus with contempt.Remus couldn't help but laugh in exasperation. "Just because you think that I'm out of power, you're all trying to trample over me? Eddie, you're fired! Leave my hotel this instant!"There was no point in keeping people who are disloyal."Haha!" Eddie laughed loudly and said playfully, "Who do you think you are to fire me as you please? Let me tell you, I am now under Master Stuart's management. Master Stuart is the one who decides whether I am to leave or to stay.""Master Stuart, I will go to the trenches of the Earth to serve you." He said as he bowed deeply with utmost respect.Remus exclaimed furiously, "This is my hotel!""Wrong!"Ben replied immediately with arrogance, "It was your hotel. But now, it belongs to me. The reason is simple. I've laid my eyes on this hotel. I've told you that I'll strip awa
Holding up two of his fingers, he sneered, "Cosby, I'll give you two options. One, sell the hotel to me for one dollar. Or two, this hotel will be locked down, and you'll spend some time in jail. The choice is yours."After finishing his sentence, everyone held their breath in shock. This was what being suppressed by power looked like. Having no ability to fight back even though you were blatantly being bullied.Mr. Stuart was truly terrifying even till this day."Bastard!"Sonny, who had just stood up from the ground, yelled in rage, "You refused to sell it for 100 million dollars earlier, and now you have to sell it for a dollar. Are you satisfied? Happy now? That's what you deserve!"If it weren't for Ben's presence, he would have beaten Remus up.Smack!Remus sent him flying with a slap. "How noisy," he thought.Then he turned to Director Georgian and smiled, "Although I'm not well-versed in business affairs, I still have some common sense. He indeed has a lot of informatio
Hearing his command, the henchmen brought by Director Georgian quickly started to clear the rooms above.All of the customers gasped in shock. Earlier, they thought that sealing off the hotel was just a tactic to scare him. After all, Neptuna Hotel was a five-star hotel and a landmark. How was it possible to seal it off just like that?Yet, it was really happening!Remus reminded them coldly, "It's easy to seal this building off, but it won't be easy to remove the tapes. I won't let you get away with this easily."Director Georgian said with a disdainful expression, "How naive, still acting so tough even at the end of the line. Let it be known that the seals I have placed have never been removed. I will seal off this hotel for as long as you refuse to sell it! I have the authority to do so!"Everyone else knew for a fact that he had that kind of power. After all, he was the big boss in the business realm!Hence, people took the opportunity to flatter him."Remus, why are you sti
The crowd immediately turned toward the source of the voice.Everyone was dumbfounded when they saw Frank. The provincial leader really came?How was it possible for him to be here?Ben, Director Georgian and Eddie were all stunned speechless. It felt unreal!Frank stepped forward with a grim expression and said in a low voice, "Who was the one who said that I should come? Well, here I am!"Director Georgian trembled at his words. His pants became wet in an instant. He never thought that the provincial leader would actually appear. Normally, he found it difficult to even meet the mayor, let alone the provincial leader. He dared not answer and immediately looked toward Ben for help. At this moment, he could only rely on him.Ben's skin also tingled in fear. It was his first time being in front of such an important figure. But when he remembered that he was Ms. Lotus' business partner, he regained some of his confidence.He stepped forward and flattered, "Hello, Mr. Gildon. I am
People who exploit others for personal gain were the most despicable.He had been exploiting his power by tarnishing his boss' name, how utterly despicable!Eddie turned pale when he met Remus' gaze. He never thought that the provincial leader would actually appear. Dropping to his knees, he pleaded, "Mr. Cosby, I was wrong! It is all my fault! Please give me a chance. I will never make the same mistake ever again. I have a family to feed, please, forgive me." He begged with his head stuck to the ground.He had worked all his life to be able to stand where he was today. Once he's fired, he would be left with nothing.Remus replied without an ounce of sympathy, "Did you ever think about your family when you made those decisions? Why should I take them into consideration? You brought this upon yourself. Mr. Gildon, investigate him as well!""Oh …" Eddie fainted from the shock.Although Frank was not pleased with his attitude, it was still his responsibility to right the wrongs. So,
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, the middle-aged man fiercely slapped both of them across the face as he thought, "Punish my ass, can't you see who's in front of you? You two are going to get me fired!"He angrily shouted, "Shut up! If you dare say another word, I'll punish the both of you!"As he spoke, he ran forward with his back bent, with tears on the edge of his eyes.Remus smiled faintly and said, "So, these are your underlings. Exploiting their authority for personal gains and standing up for their nephews …"Frank's face turned red in anger and glared at Remus. He turned to his secretary and ordered, "Inform the mayor. Investigate him as well. Thoroughly!""Yes, sir!" The secretary nodded.Hearing this, the middle-aged man froze in place. He knew that his life was over."Who do you think you are!" Sonny walked forward with his hand covering his swollen face. He never read the news, so he didn't recognise Frank.Displeased, he said, "Uncle, why did you hit
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
"No!" Remus roared, feeling a bit panicked.According to human processes, after reliving one's memories, the spirits would depart the body as a farewell to the Mortal Realm, and the physical body would begin to decay and turn to dust.If that was the case, wouldn't he fade away into nothingness after revisiting all his memories as a specter?"No, no!" Remus started shouting, trying to stop it, because this was the final act of his specter. Once this moment passed, he would completely vanish into nothingness, and he was doing everything he could to prevent that.Unfortunately, the situation in front of him wouldn't change just because he willed it to. The result would be the same as from the start, continuing to unfold bit by bit."Candace Nightingale!" Remus shouted once again. Seeing Candace nearly being squashed by the Pathic Energies, he couldn't help but wish he could lend a hand in it. If she had been killed then, he wouldn't be filled with such regret now.The scene was sti
When Remus saw this, he suddenly started laughing.This scene was from when he first arrived at the prison. He was indeed nervous and worried outside the gate. After all, it was his first time coming down from the mountains and entering the outside world, especially since Tyson said this was the most dangerous place in the world.Because of that, he was extremely cautious when going in, afraid of getting beaten up. It was also here that he parted ways with Tyson, and he hadn't seen him since then.Remus looked at Tyson, wanting to take a closer look at him, but the scene changed once again.It was three years later, when Kylie came to break off their engagement. Adorned in luxurious designer brands, she arrogantly said, "We belong to different worlds. Give me the marriage contract!"If it weren't for the fact that she was a girl, Remus would have definitely given her a rough time. Why bother putting up an act?The scene shifted again. This time, he was at the Bowen family's luxur
Remus stared straight ahead for a moment, then began frantically looking around. All he saw was a dense forest surrounding him. There was no sign of Tyson anywhere.What terrified him even more was that when he looked down right after that, he discovered he had no body or spectral form.Remus quickly raised his hand, wanting to touch his arm, attempting to see if he was simply concealed. However, he unexpectedly couldn't feel his arm! It was as if he only had a pair of eyes to observe the world, and no one else could even see these eyes."How did this happen? What is this place?" Remus was completely panicked.Why did he see a scene from over 20 years ago? Did he travel back in time? Or was this scene simply playing itself back to him? Where exactly was he?The sound of a slap interrupted his train of thought.Remus sharply turned to look, and to his surprise, he could see the top of the mountain along the path.At the summit was a small thatched house, and in front of it sat a
Unfortunately, the problems kept coming one after another.Grant said, "That's a good idea, but how can Remus return to the Mortal Realm or even reach the Upper Realms? He's currently a specter and isn't able to go there!"The other four ghost kings froze. The favorable outcome made them overlook the necessary process. Remus couldn't reach the Upper Realms, which meant the fight between him and Francis couldn't happen.They all turned to look at Roman.Roman frowned deeply. There was actually a way to help Remus return to the Mortal Realm. Remus would have been able to think of it too, but he just couldn't see what was right under his nose.There was a term called "Soul Return". Remus could find a recently deceased body and enter it, allowing him to return to the Mortal Realm.But Roman's statement about not being able to help Remus return to the Mortal Realm wasn't a lie, because no resurrected body could ever match the strength of Remus' original form.Even if his specter poss
It was easy to tell from Paul's tone that he'd been holding it in for a long time. In fact, it wasn't just him. The other ghost kings also fell silent upon hearing this. The anger hidden within their hearts was stirred.It started with the Order of Nine Mysticisms' appearance.The Monarch of Mortals was humanity's leader, and all warriors and cultivators belonged to this group. Initially, everyone had faith in the Monarch. And, as the Pathic Energies naturally sought a vessel to inhabit, they naturally chose the first Monarch of Mortals.Later, the conflict between warriors and cultivators intensified, with the main issue being the plundering of the beast race.The warriors believed in coexistence between humans and beasts, while the cultivators viewed the beast race as inferior and thought they should be exploited.After several generations of Monarchs, the tension finally erupted, marking the beginning of the Battle of the Three Realms.At that time, even though the Monarch car
Grant realized that saying such things was somewhat self-deceptive, but he didn't know what else to say, so he fell silent. His eyes occasionally drifted toward Roman. At times like this, he felt like Roman needed to step up.Roman could feel his gaze. Despite still harboring some emotions, had no choice but to speak. After all, he was the Underworld's ruler, and they were waiting for him to make a decision. It was something he couldn't avoid.Taking a deep breath, he slowly said, "Grant is right. Remus mentioned we wouldn't interfere with each other, which means he won't trouble us anymore, and things won't be exposed for the time being."Instead of worrying about Remus, we should focus on the most pressing issues—the Pathic Energies!"He raised his head and said, "Currently, only one-third of the Pathic Energies remain in the Underworld. Although it won't affect the barrier, it still has a significant impact on us..."Roman didn't want to mention Remus anymore primarily because
