So, that was what it was about!Remus sneered and replied, "You call that a lucky talisman? It’s more like an unlucky talisman. Focus on doing good business and stop dabbling in shady practices. As for who my master is and which sect I belong to, you're not worthy of knowing that. Don't disturb me while I'm eating. You can leave now."He was about to go to Thunder Hall to get the Thunderstrike Wood in a bit. He was also in a good mood, so he couldn't be bothered with them.As for that talisman, it did bring good luck, but it also brought trouble. It was similar to a doctor treating an illness without curing the root cause, causing the patient to have frequent relapses and continue seeking treatment from him. That was how he would make money."Insolent!"The disciple glared and pointed at Remus.However, before he could say anything, Elric raised his hand and interrupted him.He squinted and said, "Kid, I'll give you one last chance to tell me who your master is and which sect yo
His father was Remus' pet lackey, so he was even more so. Naturally, he must help Remus in every way possible.Elric gritted his teeth. It wouldn't be wise to offend the Miller family when Shadowhaven Hall was planning to enter Durwad.Slowly getting up, he said, "So, it was Mr. Miller's personal decision. It seems that there's been a misunderstanding. In that case, I shall take my leave." While speaking, he quickly left, discreetly taking the fork Remus had just used.Seeing them leave, Leander immediately expressed his concern. "Sir Cosby, is everything alright? If you're dissatisfied, I can have them brought back and follow your orders."Remus smiled and realized that Leander didn't dare to offend Elric easily. Otherwise, he would end up like Linda, who had been fed feces. Since he didn't dare to offend him, there was no need to make things difficult. It was easy to deal with Elric.He replied casually, "There's no need. They'll return and apologize soon."How could he not not
The customers watched as Remus left. Gradually returning to their senses, they became indignant and dissatisfied."His arrogant act is going overboard! How could Master Elric possibly come to apologize to him? He might as well kneel and beg for Master Elric's forgiveness!""I can't understand how Mr. Miller could be deceived by such a scoundrel. Wealthy young men nowadays are so easy to deceive. I think I could give it a try myself!""He doesn't even believe what he said himself. If he believed it, would he have left? He must be worried about being exposed!"As they discussed this, a group of people ran over from a distance. At the forefront was none other than Master Elric. His disciples were behind him."Master Elric has returned?" someone exclaimed in astonishment."Even if he's back, it doesn't mean he'll apologize!"Someone got up quickly and went to approach Master Elric. He explained, "Master, right after you left, that arrogant fellow showed off like crazy.""He even sa
"If you have some matters to settle, you can look for him instead!"Leander thought that Remus was interested in matters such as fortune-telling.Remus further explained, "They owe me something, and I need to go and get it. There’s no point in looking for someone else."Leander pondered for a moment and said, "Sir Cosby, if it's about retrieving something, I suggest you don't go in the next two days. You can get it from other sects.""Today happens to be the start of the Wizardry Tournament. We might as well go to the venue and wait. There are many sects there, so we'll definitely be able to find a substitute!""Hmm?" Remus looked over, surprised. What's the meaning of this? Why would he try to stop him multiple times?Wilson lowered his voice and said, "Sir Cosby, please don't be offended. The thing is, there was a major incident that happened with the Thunder Hall recently. It is said that the hall leader, Wesley, suffered from divine retribution for wandering too far in his se
Seeing this, Leander immediately tried to persuade Remus. "Sir Cosby, why don't we head over to the venue to wait? The tournament will be starting in half an hour anyway."Although he had witnessed Remus' abilities, even if Remus could survive, he might not be able to protect Leander. When Wesley went berserk, he even killed his own disciples.It was too dangerous to stay here.Remus frowned as he glanced at the house inside the courtyard before replying lightly, "Waiting at the venue is an option, but the problem is, I doubt Wesley will be there. He might not even be able to survive for another half an hour."There was a faint herbal scent in the air that others couldn't detect, but Remus could. And these herbs were used to forcefully prolong one's life."What did you say?!""You impudent brat! How dare you curse the hall leader! I'll destroy your future!"The two young men guarding the gate became furious and drew their long swords, ready to fight him to death."I'm sorry, I'
Dr. Marley signed and shook his head as he said, "No. He wasn't in Neptuna. But Dr. Dent gave me a pill. I was told that the daughter of the richest man in Neptuna had been cured by it too. Ethan, from the Steele family in the provincial capital, had also been revived by this pill. But the thing is, they all ate three of the pills, and Dr. Dent only had one left …"Hearing this, Zapr's eyes filled with deep sorrow. He gritted his teeth and said, "At this point, there's no other choice. Perhaps the rumors are true—my master has wandered too far in his search for the secrets of heaven and is being punished for it."He changed the subject and said, "Dr. Marley, let's head inside. Regardless, we need to give the medicine to my master first!""Alright!"Dr. Marley followed him inside."Don't let Master Wesley take that pill. It won't cure him. I'll cost him his life instead!" Remus instantly recognized that it was one of the seven pills he'd refined when he'd saved Miranda. Dr. Dent ha
It was satisfying to finally be able to finish his sentence. But as soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the courtyard changed. Everyone stood still, staring in disbelief.Dr. Marley looked at Remus and suddenly realized that he fit the description of the legendary physician. He was young and handsome, exuding an extraordinary aura. He glanced at Leander and asked, "What did you call him just now?""Sir Cosby."Then he turned to Kylie and asked, "Girl, what did you call him just now?""Remus."Upon hearing their responses, Dr. Marley muttered to himself as he put one and one together, "Cosby … Remus, Remus Cosby?"He felt like he'd been struck by something. He stared at Remus intently, realizing that the names matched. It should be him. He was about to say something when Remus cut him off."Shut it!" Remus exclaimed angrily. "I'll only give you one chance to speak!"Dr. Marley's eyes shifted, and suddenly he knelt down on both knees. "I've long heard from Dr. Dent
When the needles entered the three final acupoints …"Blargh!"Wesley, who was seriously ill, suddenly vomited, spewing out black blood that emitted a foul smell.Then, the concave pit on his chest, where the fist mark was, started slowly healing. The color of his lips improved as well, and his eyes slowly opened."Master!"Zapr saw the changes, and tears of excitement streamed down his face. He quickly knelt in front of Remus and firmly said, "Sir Cosby, you saved Master. From now on, I will dedicate my life to you. I won't even hesitate to go through the depths of the earth to do so!"Remus was about to reply when someone interrupted him."Master!" Dr. Marley also suddenly knelt down, excitedly saying, "Sir Cosby, your miraculous healing has brought new life to withered bones. From now on, my life belongs to you. I will obey your command!"Remus wasn't in the mood to respond to them. Instead, he curtly said, "He's already cured. You two can leave first!" With that, he immedia
Time flew by quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was already evening.Before this, Darsia's citizens were unaware of the immortals descending to their realm. However, by nightfall, it became impossible to hide this fact, as 15 bright stars appeared in the sky.Darsia's citizens had all witnessed the past battle between Remus and the Upper Realms, so the current scene felt both familiar and not to them.The familiarity came from the unusual phenomena in the sky that night. The unfamiliarity came from the fact that there were no other unusual signs apart from these 15 stars, making it much smaller in scale compared to that night.Among these 15 stars, 13 of them were white and evenly distributed across various locations in Darsia. Another was gold, hovering directly above Centuria, while the last one was only faintly visible.The gold star was a Golden Immortal leading the 13 white stars, who were Celestial Immortals. And the last one was a heavenly official.The Golden Immortal an
If they didn't surrender, the people of Darsia would face casualties in the tens of millions.Of course, the most important thing was that no matter how hard the Mortal Realm tried or resisted, it could not even land a finger on the Upper Realms. If they were to fight, the outcome wouldn't just be one-sided—they would lose by a landslide.None of them could bring themselves to say it, but they knew the responsibility for doing this unpleasant task fell on them.The sound of sobbing rang out in the conference room again.Kaiser glanced around at the women, fully aware that no one felt more aggrieved than they did. However, there was nothing he could do. Despite being the president, he was powerless.Still, he had to ask, "Do any of you disagree?"None of them responded. They had countless things to say, but they all boiled down to the fact that they were simply not strong enough. If there were even the slightest chance of victory, they would resist without hesitation.Unfortunate
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
