When Eva arrived next to Remus, her face turned pale from fright as she saw the mess on the ground. She trembled uncontrollably and couldn't believe Remus had managed to destroy the Dragon Protector Clan!"Eva!""Eva, save us!""Please save us! He's going to kill us!"When people saw Eva, hope rekindled in their eyes. Rumor had it that while Remus had forced himself upon Ana, Eva was with him willingly.In a way, Eva should be significantly more important to him than Ana was. If she pleaded for them, she might be able to save their lives."Eva, quickly, beg Remus for mercy. We were wrong. We can guarantee that from now on, we won't interfere with him anymore!" Logan said urgently.At moments like this, dignity or class didn't matter anymore. He simply didn't want to die. Even if he couldn't stand at the top of the world, he could still live comfortably with the wealth he had."Eva, please, I beg you. You've seen how the Dragon Protector Clan has paid the price. Please, don't es
"No, Eva! You need to beg him!""Eva, please ask him…"The other clan members were even more devastated. Eva's action clearly indicated that she was giving up hope and wanted to drag them down with her.But Eva seemed like she didn't hear anything and remained indifferent.Remus stood atop the Monarch Palace. Time ticked by second after second. He raised his hand several times, only to lower it again each time.He kept thinking about what Eva said—that she was here to plead on his behalf.The meaning of this sentence was straightforward—she didn't believe he could win against the Dragon Protector Clan. That meant that Remus held a position in Eva's heart.Remus was never afraid of facing challenges head-on, but he could never handle sudden tenderness. Every time, it hit him right in the soul, making it hard to resist.15 minutes passed before Remus let out a long sigh.He slowly raised his hand, not to attack, but rather made a gesture of invitation and calmly said, "Come back
Come out? Upon hearing these words, everyone present trembled with astonishment.The conflict had already gotten to this point, where all the sentinels, guards, and even Cheryl were defeated, and most clan members were either killed or injured.Who else could still fight? And why did it sound so bizarre to hear Garth say that?A sudden gust of wind arose behind the island, sweeping over the area and making everyone's clothes flutter noisily.Then, a few figures could be seen rising into the air. There were seven in total, with one leading at the front.They were dressed in matching black silk robes with sashes around their waists. Their faces were covered with black cloth, leaving only a pair of extremely cold eyes exposed. They approached them, walking on the air.Upon seeing these seven individuals, the entire audience was in an uproar. No one could have imagined that Garth was telling the truth and that he actually had a contingency plan.These people exuded an overwhelming p
Philbert was hit so hard that he spat out blood and flew back several feet before crashing heavily onto the ground."What about me?" Cheryl was still lying on the ground. She weakly opened her eyes with a look of shock in them.She almost died at Remus' hands. If Garth had summoned the Cosby Army just now, he could have easily killed Remus. Cheryl wouldn't have lost an arm and wouldn't be suffering from severe internal injuries.Garth didn't even look at her and said indifferently, "I told you, it's only when faced with life and death that people can give it their all. You are no exception!"Everyone gasped in shock. He was truly ruthless, using his own daughter's life to pave the way!Upon hearing this, Cheryl froze completely. She believed that even though they hadn't seen each other for years, her father still cared for her and felt some guilt toward her. She never expected than in the end, she was just another pawn!She trembled violently before passing out from anger.Garth
Everyone felt like they were hit on the head again, and it gave them chills all over as if a cold wind was blowing through them. Garth was unbelievably ruthless!Although he attacked Ana just now, people didn't feel much about it, given that she had been confined in the Cosbys' courtyard for some time now.But what about Eva? She was just firmly standing with the Dragon Protector Clan, risking her own life to ensure Garth's safety. But now, Garth had turned his back on her and even dared to hit her.In this world, was there anyone who could make Garth soften his stance, even just a little?"Eva!" Seeing the situation, Remus instinctively blurted out Eva's name.He couldn't understand why he felt so anxious. His fighting spirit quickly surged, and he wanted to pull Eva close to him.At the same time, the Cosby Army's leader suddenly made a move. A burst of fighting spirit clashed against Remus', not only dispersing it but also forcing Remus to retreat dozens of feet backward.If
One of the guards quickly took action and firmly restrained Eva. No matter how she struggled, she couldn't break free."And her, too!" Garth gave another order, so another guard grabbed Ana.With the two women in tow, they rose into the air and stood behind him.Garth looked down at Remus and sneered. "If I'm going to take you down, I need to know everything about you. If you're a Martial Divinity Warrior, then you must take whatever deadly strike we throw your way."If I'm not mistaken, you still have one chance at the Eight Celestial Strikes, which allows you to briefly return to your peak form. However, you unfortunately won't be able to use it in front of me."Eva was still struggling, trying to speak but unable to due to being restrained. Tears and blood covered her face.On the other hand, Ana was extremely weak and did not struggle or cry. There was only a faint smile on her face, a smile that seemed to mock the entire world.Remus looked upward and struggled to get up, b
Everyone was startled by the sudden voice and instinctively looked toward the source of the sound.A group of people suddenly appeared above the sea. Leading them was an elderly man dressed in what looked like an evening suit, wearing a top hat and holding a cane, giving off a gentlemanly vibe.His skin color was very different from that of the Darsians—it was much lighter. His facial features were more pronounced, especially his prominent hooked nose."Otis!" Garth recognized the person immediately. The pride on his face quickly vanished, replaced by extreme caution, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.The Dragon Protector Clan's members below heard this name and immediately snapped to attention, too.This old man was none other than the deputy leader of the Rose family—one of the top two families—and the primary individual within the Rose family responsible for dealing with the Dragon Protector Clan. He was also known as Darsia's sage!"It's Otis, and behind him is Tho
Suddenly, a sound rang out in the air. Garth was on his knees.Seeing this, everyone was shocked and dumbfounded. What was he doing?Otis was also startled and looked on in disbelief. He hadn't asked him to kneel, so why did he kneel on his own? What was he up to?Garth said directly, "We lost. Our clan has been defeated. From today onwards, the Dragon Protector Clan no longer exists, only the Walter family submitting to the Rose family."Firstly, I hereby guarantee that, starting today, everything in the Walter family will be centered around the Rose family and will comply with all orders from the Rose family!""Secondly, the Walter family must hand over 60 percent of our annual profits to the Rose family without any shortfall!"Thirdly, I swear my eternal loyalty to the Rose family. If I ever break this vow, may I be struck by lightning!"The clan members and the Rose family's people were stunned. Even Ana and Eva had forgotten their pain, looking on in amazement.What was he
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
