Soon after, Skylar and Elias both announced that tomorrow night at 8pm, a wedding ceremony will be held for Ben and Miranda at the Vespa Villa, and all of Neptuna was invited.There was no prior engagement, they were getting married right away! The news stunned everyone in Neptuna.Elias is the richest man in Neptuna, and Skylar is the up-and-coming elite of Neptuna. The union of the two would form the most powerful alliance, and everyone knows who they are targeting — The Lotus family.At the office, Naomi heard the news and stormed in angrily. "Remus, look at what you've done, you've forced the Bowen family and Stuart family to unite against us!" The two families teaming up against them would put the Lotus family in a difficult position.Remus was lost in thought, reminiscing about the kiss when she interrupted him. He looked up, feeling helpless."Please knock next time you come in," he said unhappily. "And if you don't knock, I'll have to fire you immediately.""You..."
Naomi sneered in disdain and probed, "Don't you want to know how expensive it is?"Snap!Remus casually pulled out a card and said, "Here's one billion, is that enough?"Naomi and the employees were shocked speechless. "One billion? Are you here to buy some drinks or the entire Tiger Roost Estate?" They thought.Naomi's face turned red with anger. She had wanted to embarrass Remus, but ended up being dumbfounded.She couldn't help but complain, "Mr. Cosby, using fake cards is not a good idea. When you swipe it later, the other party might not acknowledge it!""Just go!" Remus couldn't be bothered to explain and walked into the Tiger Roost Estate.He had many more cards like this, all given by the guys in prison.Soon after, they ordered a private room on the second floor, and ordered a lot of drinks and snacks. The prices here were indeed not cheap, with beer costing 100 dollars per bottle, foreign liquor starting at 18 thousand dollars, and even the fruit platter was priced
"Oof!" Jasper was struck hard, causing his body to immediately contort and his mouth to become sealed shut. With wine in his mouth, the impact caused him to nearly choke to death."Mr. Niles!""Mr. Niles!"The people at the same table stood up nervously and asked with concern.Kylie, too, was taken aback upon witnessing Mr. Niles' condition, causing her to feel immensely frightened. Mr. Niles was none other than the prince of Crimson Pharmaceuticals, a vital figure in Neptuna. Moreover, Crimson Pharmaceuticals was on the brink of collaborating with Mr. Steele from the provincial capital in an effort to crush the Cox family with the same ease as crushing an ant.Kylie's panic intensified, causing her to hastily stand up and apologize. "Mr. Niles, are you alright? I didn't mean to do that. I'm truly sorry."Jasper eventually began to regain his composure, but his emotions quickly turned to anger. "You wench! How dare you lay your hands on me! I'll make you regret it!"In Jaspe
Everyone was stunned.Jasper opened his eyes slowly and reached up to touch his face, feeling disoriented. He was confused about what was happening. Suddenly, a voice from beside him interrupted his thoughts."How did it taste?" the voice asked.The crowd suddenly realized that a guy had appeared by Kylie's side, but they were unsure of when he had arrived.Kylie was shocked to see Remus there with her. Her eyes filled with excitement as she exclaimed, "Re…Remus?""That's me!" Remus replied, equally surprised to see her. He had noticed her earlier and was considering leaving, but when he saw her being cornered, he knew he had to intervene.Although Kylie was just a commoner, they were engaged before, so he couldn't just stand by and watch her be bullied."Mr. Niles!""Mr. Niles!"The companions were in a state of panic. While they had heard of people being humiliated before, they had never witnessed someone being vomited on in such a manner. Although they wanted to offer assis
The dim lighting in the arena made it difficult to see clearly, but suddenly a voice shouted out, "Jasper!" The crowd quickly realized that it was the young master of Crimson Pharmaceuticals. But even for his father, causing trouble in the Tiger Roost Estate would be unthinkable!Ethan turned his head to try and catch a glimpse, but the low light made it hard to make out Jasper's features. Scarlet frowned and asked, "You know Jasper, Mr. Steele?"Ethan nodded and replied, "I came here mainly for the pharmaceutical business, and Crimson Pharmaceuticals is a partner of ours."However, Ethan had an ulterior motive for coming to the Tiger Roost Estate. He not only wanted to target Remus but also aimed to monopolize the pharmaceutical market and prevent Jean from achieving further success, cutting her off completely.Scarlet hesitated for a moment before speaking, "The Tiger Roost Estate has its own set of rules, and no one can break them. But since Jasper is Mr. Steele's friend, he can
It made sense."Naomi!" Ethan exclaimed grimly. How dare this woman ruin his plan?"Hey!"Remus couldn't tolerate it and expressed his displeasure. He said, "What are you guys discussing? I am the person involved. Shouldn't you ask for my opinion? You're excluding me from the conversation as if I'm an outsider!"He listened for a long time, and his ears became calloused."What do you have to say then?" Scarlet asked coldly."Let's all have a go at it!" Remus replied calmly. "I also want to see how you fight!"After hearing this, the customers were shocked, wondering if this guy was really crazy. Were his actions based on his reliance on Miss Lotus' influence, or was he just reckless?"Remus!" exclaimed Naomi and Kylie in unison, expressing their shock and disbelief."Reckless fool!""What did you say?!"Scarlet and Ethan spoke at the same time, expressing their disbelief. How could this guy talk like that? Was he a clown?Remus casually picked his ear and continued, "I mean
Everyone at the scene was dumbfounded and shocked beyond belief. Tiger Roost Estate had always been known for its power and influence, and Grimmold was considered one of the most formidable martial artists in the region. Yet, with a single kick, Remus had sent him flying?It was simply unbelievable.Kylie and Naomi were equally stunned by what they had witnessed. Scarlet was among the most shocked by the turn of events. While some in the crowd may have been unaware of Grimmold's true strength, Scarlet knew all too well that he was one of the top martial artists in the entire Drakon River Province, ranked as one of the top three in Neptuna. Yet he was defeated by a single kick from Remus?However, she quickly regained her composure.In a stern voice, she said, "So what if I don't believe you? Remus, based on what you just did, not even ms. Lotus can save you!""Don't assume that you can be fearless because you can fight. Physical strength is only a superficial aspect of power i
What a mistake!As Remus walked back, customers began to talk behind him, calling him a fool for not being aware of the danger at hand and still having the leisure to drink. However, their attention soon shifted to Scarlet, who was still kneeling on the ground, showing her determination to thoroughly deal with Remus before getting up.No one in Neptuna has ever seen Scarlet with such determination.This was getting serious! Scarlet took out her phone, dialed a number openly, and said directly, "Husband, I'm in Neptuna, and I'm being harassed!"The word "husband" hung in the air, causing those within earshot to hold their breath in anticipation. Naomi clenched her teeth, not daring to speak, while Kylie trembled and struggled to maintain her composure.The phone was connected to the bar's speakers, which was also deliberately done by Scarlet to let everyone hear her husband's voice.An old voice suddenly filled the whole room. "Where's Lil' Grim? Tell him to end the bastard no
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
