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
Upon hearing this, everyone present shuddered. No one expected that Otis would reject Garth and accept Remus instead. It was ridiculous!However, everyone's attention instinctively turned toward Remus, waiting for his decision.Remus suddenly moved, but since he was face down on the sea's surface, his expression couldn't be seen."No way!" Garth seized the opportunity and spoke up immediately, clearly very anxious. He believed that Remus would take advantage of such a great chance.If he did, it meant Garth would have no more opportunities for a comeback. What awaited was not only death but also inhumane torture.He continued, "Esteemed Mr. Rose, you may not understand Remus. This person is extremely ambitious and has a malicious mind. He will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. His ferocity is millions of times greater than mine!"If you're worried about me betraying you later, you can have me take a pill or poison, and you'll have the only antidote. That way, you can be compl
Remus finally stood up straight, his face reappearing before everyone. Even though he was covered in blood, that almost seemed irrelevant compared to the look in his eyes.Whether it was because of the recent tears of blood or the overwhelming grief, his eyes had turned red, a crimson color, making them look almost inhuman. He seemed to resemble a demon instead.Staring into Otis' eyes, Remus said, "What if I don't?"Upon hearing this response, everyone felt a heaviness in their hearts. Both his reply and the way he spoke made everyone feel very uneasy.Otis was even more so, especially when he met Remus' eyes, sending a chill down his spine.But he remained calm. "If you don't, I can't trust that you're loyal to me, and I'll make your family my servants. You'll die a horrible death, and your women will become my slaves!""You're threatening me!" Remus gritted out.But before anyone could react, Remus suddenly started laughing. "Do you actually dare to threaten me? Everyone who
The guard above suddenly stopped moving for some unknown reason. No, to be more precise, it was as if he was sealed in place and was suspended in midair, completely still.When the guard saw Remus' eyes, his usually expressionless face showed an unprecedented terror, and he couldn't help but cry out.Remus smiled and said, "Die!"The guard exploded without any warning. He burst apart into a cloud of blood mist, descending through the air.Everyone was completely caught off guard and stunned."What's… What's going on? He's clearly exhausted, so why is this happening?" Garth couldn't help but exclaim in shock.Remus laughed again, sending chills down everyone's spine.Otis was the first to recover and spoke in a deep voice, "Garth, what are you waiting for? Attack!"Hearing that, Garth pointed swiftly. "Go!"Upon receiving the order, the Cosby Army did not hesitate at all.Besides that Half-Step guard, the other guards also charged toward the cackling Remus at incredible speed.
It was impossible! Aside from him, no one could believe it, either. Everyone just stood there, staring in shock."Trash!" Remus lifted his other hand and slowly reached for his other arm.Though his movements weren't fast, no matter how much the guard tried to dodge, Remus still caught his other arm. In the end, there was no escape.Astonishingly, the guard's arm was ripped off after Remus applied only a bit of force."No!" As the guard screamed, he finally saw Remus' eyes up close. Looking into those eyes from such a close distance made his very soul tremble.These eyes were far from what a human could possess. They weren't just crimson—there was an endless sea of blood within them!Remus continued ripping him limb from limb. Under everyone's gaze, the guard was torn to pieces.Garth could no longer speak and was only breathing heavily. Ana and Eva were also stunned, feeling that the Remus in front of them was very unfamiliar."Hurry, run!" A loud shout snapped everyone back t
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
