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
How was this even possible?!How?!Everyone heard it with their own ears, but no one dared to believe it. After all, it was Scott, the head of the Miller family, on the other end of the phone!Who was Remus anyway?He was just ms. Lotus's business partner, a little nobody who got lucky and rose to power. And now he's making Scott bark like a dog? That's unbelievable!Remus' mood lifted when he heard Scott mimic a dog's bark, and he chatted with him for a little while longer before hanging up the phone.He casually handed the phone back to Scarlet and said, "Since you're Miller's woman, I'll let you off this time. Don't make the same mistake again. I'm off!"As he spoke, he picked up the unconscious Kylie and prepared to leave.Scarlet's mind was in turmoil. She finally regained her senses as he saw him leaving and said, "Wait!""Hmm?" Remus furrowed his brows. She was still trying to keep him here?Scarlet gritted her teeth and said, "Mr. Cosby, I haven't apologized to you
Ms. Lotus will definitely kick Remus out!Naomi left and was about to leave the hotel when she ran into Ethan, who was returning from his supper. Behind him was Warren."What a small world." Ethan said with a dark and mysterious tone, "You're back? Where's Remus? Dead? Hehe."Naomi didn't say a word and quickly left.Warren said in a deep voice, "Young master, should I go and bring her back?"Ethan shook his head, "No need. She's been by Jean's side for many years and carries a lot of weight. Having Remus dead will be good enough. But unfortunately, I didn't get to deal with that little brat myself."As they continued forward, Ethan asked, "By the way, what do you think of Tiger Roost Estate?"Today, their plan was to investigate the background of Tiger Roost Estate. After all, being in Neptuna, they needed to know who they could provoke and who they needed to avoid.Warren's expression turned serious. "They're tough. That guy named Grimmold is very powerful. I'm not sure if I
This was not the Western Manor.The gate in front of them bore the prominent emblem of Crimson Pharmaceuticals, emblazoned in bold letters.Since Miranda and Ben's wedding was at 8 o'clock in the evening, it was too early to go now. "We're here... for business?" Remus asked in surprise. "Yes, I will handle the talking." Jean's face lit up with a happy smile. "Uncle Max mentioned that the team is currently facing a shortage of medicines, and Crimson Pharmaceuticals happens to be the largest pharmaceutical factory in the province. It would be best for us to collaborate with them.""After I finish my pitch, you will be the one to sign the contract," Jean declared. Initially, she had planned to leave all the work to Remus, who was Adam's apprentice. However, yesterday she received a call from her father, who said that if she could achieve a good result, she would not have to marry the dimwitted suitor that had been chosen for her. She couldn't wait and had to take the lead herself!
At that moment, Remus interjected abruptly, "You've already teamed up with Ethan. You're doing this on purpose."Jean turned to Remus with surprise. John's expression shifted, and he couldn't deny the claim. He sneered, "That's absurd."He turned to Jean and continued, "Ms. Lotus, your dog isn't loyal to you. Our partnership would be greatly beneficial, with the simple condition being that he kneels down and apologizes. Yet, he refused to kneel due to his pitiful self-esteem. I can only say that you have bad taste!"Jean didn't respond, but looked at Remus nervously and asked, "Has he really teamed up with Ethan?"She knew that Ethan must have had a motive for coming here, and now it became apparent that he was here to hinder her plans. If they joined forces, it would be disastrous for her."It seems so," Remus replied cautiously. He added, "Ethan was also present last night, and Jasper was waiting for him. If there wasn't some sort of connection, why would they be together?"Jea
"John Niles!"Jean's face turned pale as she witnessed the scene. There were thousands of people outside, and even if Remus was skilled in fighting, he couldn't take on all of them. Even if every person in the room gave just a single spit, the sheer volume would be enough to drown him.Coldly, Jean asked, "What are you planning to do? You dare to lay a finger on me?"John, seeing his employees outside, recovered his arrogance and said, "I don't dare to hurt you, but I don't mind hurting your dog!" Then, he looked at Remus and said, "Little brat, I told you to kneel and apologize earlier, now you have to do it until I'm satisfied, or else, I'll crush you."Smack!Remus slapped him again and said impatiently, "Cut the crap!"Then, he said to Jean, "He must have worked with Ethan, otherwise, he wouldn't dare to defy you like this, nor would he dare to call people out."Elias and Skylar didn't dare to confront them publicly, let alone John. Jean also realized this, but the most impo
"Mr. Niles!"The security guards raised their batons, ready to strike.Yet, Remus had already walked over to John, stepping on him and threatening, "Take one more step and I'll crush him!"The security guards instantly froze, afraid to make a move. John was unable to move with Remus' foot on him, he clenched his fists in anger and wished he could kill Remus on the spot. However, his life was in Remus' hands, and he couldn't move. He continued to argue, "Let's see how long you can keep up this act!"Remus slowly applied pressure with his foot. "Ah..." John screamed in agony.Soon, five minutes had passed.The secretary rushed in frantically, her hands trembling in fear as she saw her boss in such a sorry state. "Boss, someone's here!" she exclaimed.John's eyes narrowed as he thought of the person Remus had brought here. He knew that eliminating them was the only way to save his dignity. "Whoever it is, we'll crush them!" he declared. "Get everyone here, and don't hold back. We'l
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
