Everyone let out a sigh of relief. Indeed, the grandmaster should be punished. They were all nearly scared to death just now.The grandmaster was beaten senseless and, feeling extremely wronged, said, "Saint Master, although it's not that person, it is related to them. Just now, Halbert's Eternal Burning Candle disintegrated!"It was as if a muffled thunder rang out in everyone's minds."What… What do you mean, disintegrated?" Xaden also shouted out in disbelief."Yes, it disintegrated!" the grandmaster said with a sense of grievance. "Saint Master, besides that person, who else could turn Halbert into ashes?"Xaden involuntarily shivered.The truth was, he had always hoped they would get lucky, thinking that the Kenington's destruction had nothing to do with Ryunington.Maybe Kenington had offended a rare genius who appeared once in a million years. Now, this genius, after achieving success, had come back to seek revenge, targeting only Kenington.But now, they were starting t
Meanwhile, Remus was riding Ruby toward Snowcrown Mountain. He had stopped thinking about how to deal with it long ago.The situation with Monington had already reached a point of no return, so it was a matter of life and death with no room for compromise. Seeing them meant killing them, plain and simple.After what happened at Kenington, Remus really did not take Monington's people seriously.It wasn't that he was careless, but the key point was that Snowcrown Mountain wasn't considered a sacred land yet. Even Adalyn couldn't harness its power.To put it simply, her strength wasn't at its peak, and she was a lot weaker compared to Onyx. To deal with her, he just needed to be careful.Currently, Remus was currently thinking about two things.In about half a month, he would be going to the Dragon Protector Clan. Even though he was currently at the Martial Divinity Stage, he couldn't be fully confident. After all, it was one of the two biggest families in the world!Their martial
Remus took a deep breath and announced in a loud voice, "Saint Master Adalyn, I'm here to take Wilda home!"His voice was deafening. The snow covering the mountainside began to surge downward with a thunderous roar, reminiscent of a mighty army charging forward. It was an avalanche.Remus kept his eyes fixed on the mountaintop.However, there was no response from the top of the mountain. In fact, there wasn't a single person in sight up there, and all the buildings had their doors tightly shut."Saint Master Adalyn, I'm here to take Wilda home!" Remus shouted again.Dozens of interconnected snow-covered mountains around him started to avalanche simultaneously.However, there was still no response from the mountaintop.Remus didn't hesitate at all. With a surge of fighting spirit, he charged straight toward the newly built main hall.As expected, the newly established sacred land didn't have a barrier. His fighting spirit visibly surged toward the main hall. The building shatter
Initially, Adalyn and Xaden discussed the idea of joining forces to face the enemy. And the way to do this would be for everyone from Monington to go to Ryunington. The two would combine their efforts and work together.This had never happened in the thousands of years of the cultivation world's history, but faced with such a formidable enemy, they had no choice but to break new ground.At this very moment, Adalyn and Xaden saw Remus' bloodshot eyes and started trembling, terrified. This was a deep-seated fear that sent chills down their spines.Why was it Remus? Why wasn't he dead yet? Why could they never kill him? Instead, he would always come back stronger! That was completely unreasonable and went against heaven's laws!Xaden turned abruptly toward Adalyn and asked agitatedly, "Saint Master Adalyn, can you explain what's going on? Why is Remus still alive?"Ryunington's and Monington's people also turned to look at Adalyn. They couldn't understand, so maybe she would know the
But Ryunington couldn't do without Monington!"Yes, you absolutely cannot give in!""This scoundrel is always spewing nonsense, so his words should never be trusted. We'll be falling into his trap if we hand Wilda over!""Think about it, throughout history, was anyone who crossed Remus ever spared? You definitely shouldn't listen to his incitement!"Several of Ryunington's grandmasters also began to speak. They weren't dumb and had the same thoughts as Xaden."Oh…""But…""But what if he comes?"Monington's grandmasters were in a difficult situation. It was like they were dancing on the edge of an abyss, where one wrong step could lead to irreversible disaster.Adalyn clenched her fists, feeling extremely anxious. This situation left her stuck between a rock and a hard place. Perhaps it would be better to…Xaden, seeing her hesitation, softly reminded, "Saint Master Adalyn, don't forget that Ryunington took Monington in when you were in your hardest time. And remember, Remus
Adalyn and Xaden were dumbfounded.Remus was practically a mind reader. How could he possibly know what they were about to do?If he hadn't said that before hanging up, it simply would mean there was no need to continue the conversation. But if they disconnected after he said that, they would be embarrassing themselves in front of all the disciples.So, there was no way they could hang up now."Do you have the guts to come here or not?" Remus pressed again.Adalyn's face was covered in sweat, her mind in turmoil. She had never faced such a difficult decision in her life.If she went, she would be walking to her death. But if she didn't go, how should she respond?At that moment, a grandmaster behind her shouted, "You scoundrel, don't try to provoke us. We've already seen through your tricks. You're simply setting a trap! Do you think we'll fall for it?"The other grandmasters also stepped forward. Since they had already become enemies, they couldn't just march toward their deat
Hearing that, the thousands of disciples in Ryunington's square suddenly felt their hair stand on end. Their pores opened, and cold sweat dripped down.Adalyn and Xaden opened their mouths so wide that an egg could fit in it. They never expected Remus to be able to figure it out. How did this guy know that Monington's people were at Ryunington?They stared upward at the vast eyes obscuring the sky, as if gazing down at all beings from the heavens. It was a feeling they had never experienced before.Looking into those eyes made them feel insignificant, inferior, and hopeless, even to the point where they just wanted to kneel before him and submit forever.Xaden responded with lightning speed, quickly raising his hand and shattering the curtain. Remus' eyes in the sky disappeared instantly, and Xaden's focus was no longer on those eyes.He suddenly realized that he was soaked from head to toe, and his heart felt like it was about to leap out of his throat."Saint Master, Remus is c
Since Remus already knew Wilda's location, he and Ruby weren't in a rush.On one hand, people tended to have a mindset of taking chances and wouldn't cut off their escape routes until the very last moment.This meant that both Ryunington and Monington wouldn't dare to do anything to Wilda until they had eliminated Remus first. After all, she could still be used to save their lives.On the other hand, confronting both sacred lands at the same time was risky, and they already knew he was coming, so they must be fully prepared. Going without making preparations would only put Remus in a dangerous situation.By the time they arrived, it was already nighttime.He stood on the horizon outside of Ryunington, gazing down at the vast expanse of the sacred land."Just as I thought, it's quite unusual." Remus gave a faint smile.Ryunington was unusually quiet at the moment, with no trace of spiritual energy.If it were Remus in the past, he would have gone in immediately, but he knew very
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
"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
