The host of the auction stepped onto the stage. Seeing this, everyone quickly turned their attention toward the stage. Skylar wanted to say something, but the people in charge had already arrived, so he could only hold back and sit down.

Then, the host explained the 140 plots of land and the benefits of developing it. Finally, he announced, "The auction will officially begin with a starting price of 60 million dollars!"

"70 million dollars!"

"80 million dollars!"

"90 million dollars!"

One after another, everyone raised their paddles. This land could be used for real estate development. Once the development was completed, it could be sold for at least one billion dollars.

"200 million dollars!" Elias raised his paddle. He had to get this piece of land.

"500 million dollars!" Remus' voice sounded again. Hearing this price, everyone was silent. That bid was too high, and it messed everything up.

"That's too high of a bid, Mr. Cosby!" Naomi quickly reminded him. 500 million was jus

    Kylie was furious when she heard this. He was a criminal who got out of prison. Without his good luck, no one would ever have hired him. Yet, he thought she was annoying him? She unhappily replied, "You really have a massive ego. One day, you'll definitely be begging me instead. When that time comes, don't ever forget how you treated me today!" There was no way Miranda would marry him, and Jean would also abandon him one day. At that point, he would be nothing. Remus didn't bother to answer her. Instead, he turned around and left."You…" Kylie was so angry that she was speechless. Why was he acting like this? If she hadn't asked Ben to save him yesterday, he would have been beaten to death by the Dragon Head. He was such a traitorous and ungrateful brat. If she had known, she wouldn't have saved him.She quickly ran in front of him."Stop right there!" Kylie said angrily. "I came to see you for two reasons. First, I want you to forgive Mr. Lawson and not retaliate against him. S

    “Fool!” Remus said.“What did you say?” Ben was furious. How dare he curse him!“Calm down, Mr. Stuart.” Kylie hurriedly stopped him. Although Remus was unbearable to deal with, she couldn’t let him cause trouble. He had a reputation now, and he might lose it in the future.However, Ben was different. He was the heir of Sky Group, and that would never change.She turned and scolded him. “Remus, hurry up and apologize to Mr. Stuart. Do you know that he was the one who saved you at Draculus Court yesterday? He’s your savior. Don’t be ungrateful and apologize.” After she spoke, she kept giving him a look.“He saved me, you say?” Remus looked at Ben, amused.Ben was initially aggressive, but when he heard this, he felt a little guilty.However, Kylie didn’t notice, and continued, “Why else do you think the Dragon Head would let you go? Mr. Stuart personally went to see him! Hurry up and apologize! This is for your own good, do you understand?”Without any warning, Remus slapped Ben

    When Ben walked in, Skylar regained consciousness. He was panting heavily on the chair. Yet, his anger had not subsided! Remus had him kneel in front of everyone. Also, Skylar had spent 1.3 billion dollars on buying a piece of land. He had lost both his dignity and money!"How are you, Dad?" Ben rushed in, worried. Skylar waved his hand. He wasn't in the mood to look at his son now. He slowly got up, clasped his hands together, and said, "Everyone, I'm pretty sure you saw what happened just now, so I'm not going to hold myself back. I want to ask if any of you would like to develop this piece of land with me!"The conference hall was completely silent. Everyone looked at Skylar as if he was a fool. This piece of land was worth about seven billion dollars at the most. Any more than that, and it wasn't worth it anymore. Now that he spent 1.3 billion dollars on it, any investors in the project would just lose money. Only a fool would do that!"I'm glad to see that you’re better now,

    Max and Frank were both stunned by her attitude. At the same time, they both frowned, feeling like something was amiss. Jean didn’t explain further and said directly, “Uncle Frank, Uncle Max, you two must be busy. You’re carrying the burdens and hopes of the people, so don’t waste your time on me.”The two of them looked at each other, shaking their heads and sighing.Max stood up and said seriously, ”Remember, you must never harm others, but you should always be on guard. Remus has been to prison!”Frank also instructed, “If you notice something off about him, contact me immediately. I’ll handle him!”As soon as they were done talking, the door opened. Remus walked in. Acting as if he had just found out they were here, he said in surprise, “Oh? You guys are here. I wanted to see you. Yesterday, I forgot to tell you guys that the medicine I gave you will have some side effects, and your condition will become more serious than before!”The two men were a little confused. Why was

    Seeing his reaction, Jean smiled. Remus was getting more and more interesting. He could even face Max and Frank without fear, yet he was so nervous when she teased him.Then, she bit her lip and asked, “Don’t tell me you’re still an innocent young man?”Embarrassed, Remus cursed Master Tyson in his heart. If it weren’t for him, he wouldn’t even be here. Unable to hear another word from her, Remus shook her hand away. He quickly sat on the sofa, and said solemnly, “Sit down, Jean. I have something to say!”He was going to put all the chips down. If she approved, they would get married. If not, they would break it off.Baffled by his attitude, Jean asked after thinking, “You want to know why I came to Neptuna and why this concerns my entire life?”He must have been acting like this because he overheard the conversation.“Why?” Remus was indeed curious. But he disliked poking his nose into people’s secrets. If Jean hadn’t brought it up, he wouldn’t have asked.“Well…” Jean sighed.

    Both of them were startled by the phone. Jean opened her eyes. Her face was as warm as the sun. Uncharacteristically, she turned around, not daring to look at Remus. She clenched her fists, muttering, "You weren't really tempted, were you?"Remus coughed in embarrassment and took out his phone. The name on the caller ID was Miranda. He didn't want to answer it, but he wouldn't know what to say to Jean if he didn't."What do you want!" He picked up the phone."Come to Neptuna Hotel. We need to talk!" Miranda’s tone was cold and repulsive."I don't have the time!" Remus immediately hung up the phone. He hated being told what to do.Unsurprisingly, Miranda called again. "When your master arranged the engagement, he left something behind. Come and get it!" After speaking, she quickly hung up the phone.Remus frowned. He sincerely didn't want to see Miranda again, but if it involved his master, he had to go. "I have some things to attend to.""Go ahead!" Jean still didn't look at Rem

    Compared with those guys in prison, the richest people in Neptuna meant nothing to him. They weren't even qualified to get into Underhill Prison."What did you say?" Miranda was furious. It was the first time in her life that she heard someone calling the richest family in Neptuna ordinary! No one in Neptuna would ever say that! She said angrily, "Remus, I’m trying very hard to control myself right now. So, do not take my tolerance as permission to act rudely! No one in Neptuna has dared to talk to me like this!" she shouted, attracting everyone's attention."Who is this guy?""He doesn't look familiar!""How dare he offend Miranda? Does he not want to live anymore?"Remus thought it was useless to argue with her. He couldn't reason with a woman, so he said, "There's no need for us to talk. Just give me what I came here for, and we'll steer clear of each other from now on." "No way!" The more Remus downplayed the situation, the more uncomfortable Miranda felt. What right did he

    Although Remus was mad, it was not a good idea to lose his position. They didn’t have to take it to such an extent. So, he said, “Sonny, there’s nothing for you to deal with here. I can handle it myself.” However, Sonny would never give up on a chance to show off. He smiled and said, “Miranda, leave it to me! Don’t worry!” Then, he looked at Remus and threatened, “I’ll give you one last chance to apologize to Miranda right now. I’m not kidding. I’m the king at Neptuna Hotel, and no one dares to disobey me!”When Sonny finished, he leaned forward, looking aggressive. Seeing that, Miranda frowned as she knew he had gone overboard. It was useless to persuade him to stop now. As for the other diners, they became excited, waiting for a good show to start. Unfortunately, Remus didn’t take it to heart. He laughed, “If you’re the king, what is your father then? You must be mistaken. You’re not the king; you’re just a joker. Don’t embarrass your family by making yourself a fool.”The p

    "I have to go back..." Clifton's shouting seemed to have sapped all his strength. He was on the ground, continually weeping and muttering, devastated.Meanwhile, Remus was also repeating the questions in his head. Before this, the concept of the cycle of mortal life was ingrained in his mind. He had always thought this was how things should be. But now, thinking more deeply, why were things not the same for the Upper Realms and the Underworld? Why were mortals the only ones who had to go through this?A scene from Ballor City flashed through his mind, where the specters were continuously honored by the offerings from their descendants and remembered by their families for generations. That allowed them to remain in the Underworld almost forever.However, the state they were in simply made them robbers of the living.At that thought, Remus suddenly felt much clearer and slowly turned around. "It's because we're all heading toward death that life has meaning. There might be some liv

    The Underworld was a standalone domain, surrounded by the Pathic Energies. Currently, most of these energies in the Underworld were within Remus, but not all of them were.The barrier in front of them appeared to be created by ancient barriers designed to trap Pathic Energies.He reached out and touched it. Indeed, unlike Clifton, Remus could pass through it easily. If his guess was correct, only those with physical bodies could pass through this barrier."Can you go out?" Clifton suddenly noticed and said excitedly. "How are you able to get out? Can you take me with you?"I'm begging you, my wife and children are waiting for me at home, and so are my parents. Without me, who will take care of them or support them? Please, help me get out."He dropped to his knees and bowed his head as he spoke.Though Remus felt sad, he had no idea how to bring Clifton with him as he still hadn't figured out how he obtained his physical form. It certainly wasn't as simple as just absorbing Canda

    At the same time, Remus noticed he was getting closer and closer to the Mortal Realm. It was like being submerged in water, with a sense of almost rising to the surface. It was elusive yet undeniably real.After a long time, he finally saw some light ahead. He quickly sped up, getting closer and closer to the light.As he was about to step into this light, he suddenly noticed a figure to the side. It wasn't one of the guards or someone from the Underworld sent to pursue him. On the contrary, this person appeared very weak, stumbling as he walked, as if he had been walking for a long time.Remus was extremely surprised. After all, this was above the Underworld's sky, and even Remus needed to hover in the air with his energy to be here. Yet, this person was able to walk up here step by step.Additionally, this place was already very close to the Mortal Realm, so it was impossible for an ordinary specter to get there. Did he really just walk all the way here?Then, Remus was once mor

    "I…" Clyde instinctively wanted to respond before he swallowed his words at the last moment.He didn't dare to answer, because admitting they were here to kill Remus was practically a death sentence.Falling into their hands meant there was no escape now. If Clyde had been more cautious, perhaps he could have avoided it, but he was now completely at their mercy. Aggravating them could be the end for him!He and the other immortals all bowed their heads at the same time.The ghost kings exchanged glances with each other. They initially intended to be straightforward and inform the immortals that Remus was rescued by Francis. They wanted to issue a warning that if they continued to falsely accuse the Underworld, it would result in an unending conflict.But they decided to hold that information back. Right now, Roman was meditating in seclusion, and it was not possible to make decisions independently. It was better to play dumb while trying to understand the situation.Nick inquired

    Without any hesitation, Noah swiftly took off into the sky and left immediately.The immortals trailing behind him reacted in less than a second, their expressions changing dramatically. They too soared into the sky, desperately wanting to use every ounce of their strength to flee.Further behind, Clyde and the other immortals stood there dumbfounded. When they heard the first shout from Noah, they thought they misheard. When they heard the second shout, they finally realized they hadn't misheard, but all they felt was shock.They were even more shocked when Noah immediately fled after that. What was he trying to do?Within Netherhold, the atmosphere began to undergo significant changes. Above, the skies started to churn, and one could distinctly feel a powerful force emanating from the city.Soon after, five figures emerged, rapidly approaching through the air. It was none other than the five ghost kings.At this moment, their expressions were extremely grim, their eyes fixed in

    But no matter how angry they were, the Immortal Emperors couldn't make any moves right now. After all, if the fisherman made a move, the fish would be alerted. So, they could only continue enduring the bait that had been cast down below.Clyde and Noah were still glaring at each other, ready to attack at any moment. But both were smart enough to understand that if they started fighting now, it would likely give Remus the perfect opportunity to benefit from their conflict, and neither of them would survive.So, the standoff remained at the level of verbal sparring.After another 15 minutes, Noah and his group gave up."You're all talk!" Noah, in a fit of rage, exclaimed. "Be prepared to witness how I'll obliterate that brat with my formidable skills. Just wait until I take the throne as the Eastern Immortal Emperor. You will regret your words today!"With that, he turned and headed to Netherhold."What a fool." Clyde gave a dismissive smile and said calmly, "Let's follow him."He

    According to Milton, he claimed to have witnessed Remus conspiring with Roman. This led them to assume that Remus might be hiding within Netherhold. Of course, it was also because Milton didn't tell them exactly where he saw Remus.Clyde and Noah simply stood there for a full 15 minutes, neither making any move, as if they were testing each other's patience and determination. Behind them, the 20 immortals remained silent, mirroring their actions closely as they all gazed at Netherhold. In reality, it was not that they were unwilling to take action—they were too scared to.They didn't expect to succeed in their mission to kill Remus when they came here. Not only had Remus already developed an avatar, but his previous feat of slaying Kurt had already made him someone they couldn't hope to contend with.When they came, they had already planned to flee at the first sign of trouble. Over half of the weapons they brought were intended specifically for their getaway.The main reason for

    And Wilda… According to Tyson, rescuing his parents required having nine fiancées, and Wilda was the last one.Remus grabbed Candace's long skirt and covered her, then turned around to remove the barrier.But just as he reached the cave's entrance, Candace suddenly spoke. "Wait!"Remus stopped and looked at her.Candace didn't turn around but said slowly, "If you don't want history to repeat itself, then don't go back to Darsia. Leave Darsia as soon as possible, the farther the better."Remus was taken aback for a moment. Leaving Darsia was understandable. After all, having reappeared in the world as an avatar, the Upper Realms must be furious. They'd already come to the Underworld to search, and their next stop would definitely be the Mortal Realm.He had already developed an avatar, and in terms of cultivation, he was at the Emperor Stage. Meanwhile, in the Mortal Realm, he had gathered the faith of Darsia's 1.4 billion citizens and made a great vow to become a Half-Step Monarc

    Remus was stunned, rooted to the spot. He stared blankly at his hand, his eyes wide with astonishment.Before this, he was a specter, and Candace's spectral state was in control of her, which meant she was also a specter.When a specter interacted with another specter, they would be corporeal to each other. This was also the reason why he was able to hold her wrist and have relations with her. But now, his hand was phasing through her wrist. Could it be...Candace had noticed Remus' realization. Without another word, she turned her back to Remus. Given the current situation, there was no point in saying anything further.When Remus saw her move, he snapped back to reality and raised his hand to look at it. It was completely different and had regained its color.Remus was overwhelmed by a tidal wave of shock. After all, it seemed like he had regained a physical body.Remus kept wondering how this happened because it was completely beyond his understanding. He had just absorbed Can
