Raymond wasn't going to let Remus go so easily. He sneered. "Of course you have to bear the consequences. Tonight, I'll teach you some manners! Since you're part of the Cosbys, you'll need to learn the consequences of disobeying the deputy leader's orders! Take him down!" "Yes!" The ten guards quickly took action and exerted their inner force. They were all nine-level top grandmasters, an essential requirement for the main court guards of the Cosbys. In an instant, Remus could feel a strong wave of power. Even if one were a grandmaster, one could be crushed to death by this power. Thus, Remus quickly protected Seraphine and exerted his own inner force.When the two forces met, it created a booming sound in the night. The aftershock shattered windows within a thousand yards. However, both parties remained unharmed.Seeing such a scene, Greg and the others were shocked. It seemed that Raymond wanted Remus dead.On the other hand, Remus only resisted the force with one hand while
Everyone looked back to find a group walking over, and the person in the lead was one of the most influential figures who helped create Darsia, Senior Baker!Beside him was one of the founders of the Dragon Team, Goetz. Behind him was the chief physician of the National Medical Pavilion, Stone Marley, and many more. "Senior Baker, Goetz, why are you guys here?" Greg quickly ran over and welcomed him. Senior Baker answered, "I've heard about the situation with the Burkes. Of course I had to be here."He turned to look at Raymond and said sternly, "Sir Raymond, why do you need to be so ruthless to Remus? He's part of the Cosbys as well. Don't you think it would be humiliating if others found out how you treat your family?" Goetz said, "Although Remus isn't a main member, you're related by blood after all. Don't you think it's too much to summon the Cosbys guards?"Stone said, "I have learned about the situation, and Grenold humiliated Mr. Cosby. So he shouldn't be the only one p
Raymond looked shocked as he never expected Remus to have reached this stage. If that was the case, he had to kill him! "Remus!" Senior Baker was drenched in sweat. He knew that Remus was a half-step divine realm grandmaster, but if Remus did take action, he would be battling against all the Cosbys.So he quickly stopped him. "Don't be rash! There's still a chance to make peace!"Goetz also persuaded him nervously, "Mr. Cosby, you have to learn to endure it!"Remus' expression was cold as he stared at Raymond. "I can't stand it anymore, and there's no need for me to endure it! It does not matter what the Cosbys do or what the deputy leader wants. Today, I'll let everyone know that I don't care! Everything is just bullshit!"With every step he took, the gravel beneath his feet cracked. As he moved closer, his strength made them cower. Feeling the pressure, Greg and the others quickly retreated. Senior Baker and the others were also helpless. On the other hand, Raymond was furio
Gabriela's reply was powerful. It echoed her status as the war goddess of Darsia. As a woman, she would never retreat. Raymond's face reddened with anger after hearing what she said. It had been decades since anyone dared to talk back to him, and tonight, two people had!Furious, he yelled, "War goddess, this is your last chance. Are you leaving or not?" The other four families stared at them coldly. If they really started a fight, they would let the Cosbys surround Gabriela while the others would focus their fight on Remus. They wanted to make sure he was dead so he wouldn't bring them trouble in the future. Gabriela wasn't scared at all. "I—" "I don't need you!" Remus finally spoke. His expression was more relaxed than before. Difficult times showed him who was truly on his side. Seraphine insisted on staying with him while Gabriela came to help him. He was a lucky man!Then he grabbed Gabriela's wrist and pulled her behind him with a smile. "We haven't competed yet. After
"Get up! Get up immediately! Don't fight him one by one. Attack him from different angles!" Raymond shouted.The remaining grandmasters came to their senses and exerted their force before leaping at Remus. With that, twenty-five level-nine top grandmasters surrounded Remus from all angles of the sky. "I'll suppress him! You guys find an opportunity and attack!" The pinnacle top grandmaster that Winston brought rushed toward Remus from the air as he was the most suited to take on Remus. With the help of the other grandmasters, he knew he would be able to take him down easily. Exerting all his force on his fist, he aimed toward Remus' head. At this moment, Remus stood in the middle of the courtyard and raised his head to look at him. He smirked and did not dodge the attack. Instead, he waved out his fist. Immediately, an explosion rang out. He used his body to break through the soundwaves, which only a half-step divine realm grandmaster could do. "What?" The top grandmaster's fa
Winston and the others were terrified, and their minds went blank. They were scared when they saw Remus' gaze. He was capable of resisting the Cosby family’s rules, which meant he was crazy enough to kill them. Raymond was in the worst state as his arms hung limply by his sides. The wound on his face was still bleeding. Remus had already planned to kill him just now, so what should he do now?"Remus Cosby! Who are you trying to threaten? Do you think we'll be scared of you?" Tobias took one step forward as he didn't believe Remus would dare to take action. Before him were the family leaders of the most prestigious families in Darsia, and they were the most influential people in the country. If Remus dared to make a move, he would be digging his own grave. Then, he sneered, "Don't think you can do whatever you wish because you're good at fighting. These few warriors aren’t all we have. If you dare to touch us, I'll make sure you and your family have no grave to rest when you die!
There were seven prestigious families in Darsia, and currently, four family leaders were kneeling before Remus. No one had ever seen anything like this. Even the president could not make these people kneel. "When did I ever say I would show you guys mercy?" Remus was calm as he continued, "What I said was. If you guys kneel, I'll make sure your corpse is complete. All of you will still die!"They were shocked to hear that. Was Remus really going to take this risk? Raymond and the others looked devastated. Senior Baker and the others were stunned and speechless. Then, Remus looked down at Raymond. "Since you're from the Cosbys, I'll start with you. Today, I'll punish my relative for justice—""No!" Raymond immediately regretted it. If he knew this was going to happen, he would wait until the annual family meeting before killing Remus. Now, it seemed everything he had worked for was going to disappear. Remus slowly raised his hand but did not bring it down. Then, he looked past h
There was a huge explosion when they both swung their fists. If one looked closely, they would notice water vapor gathering around their arms. It was because their speed was too fast, causing the air pressure to change. Due to that, the water in the air condensed.In just a blink of an eye, there was a louder explosion. It did not sound like it was from the collision of human bodies. Instead, it sounded more like two cannon balls colliding. Everyone could see the force spread to the surroundings. It caused all the wooden buildings to crack. "Careful!" Goetz quickly exerted his force and shielded Senior Baker and the others, preventing the explosive force from killing them. Even so, everyone retreated a dozen yards. "No!" Gabriela quickly protected Seraphine, and her face turned pale from the effort. Raymond and the others spurted a mouthful of blood and rolled on the floor. In the end, they stopped before Greg's feet, looking extremely mawkish. In the next second, a shadow w
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
