Remus' knees tensed, and he surged toward Silver. His figure moved like a phantom in the midst of the night.An ear-splitting noise reverberated within the Devil Gate, causing the walls to tremble.Remus' entire body had already broken through the sound barrier, astonishingly reaching Deity Realm's speeds. Without a moment of hesitation, he continued his charge toward Silver.Silver had reached the pinnacle of the Foundation Stage and was no ordinary individual. As she saw Remus charging toward her, she sneered, "Crafty scoundrel! I knew you wouldn't obediently kneel. I've been on guard against you too–"Before she could finish her sentence, Remus sped up once more.He reached an unprecedented speed in his life, hurtling at a staggering 1.5 times the speed of sound. He was keenly aware that he had only one chance. Allowing Silver to counter would undoubtedly raise the alarm about his infiltration, leaving them with no chance of escape.A glint of panic flashed in Silver's eyes as
The next morning."Master Calsberg, you have talents that are truly exceptional, a mind that is rarely matched throughout history. I was wrong!""Master Calsberg, we were all momentarily blinded. You are the unparalleled genius of Alchemy.""Master Calsberg, I am willing to offer 3 rare demonic beast inner pills as a plea for your forgiveness!"A tumultuous noise echoed from outside Room 1. There was a group of people kneeling, and at the forefront was Chase Fowler, who had led the way in buttering up Master Graves yesterday.They were genuinely worried that Remus might retaliate against them.Prominent organizations may not fear the Tanjen Organization. However, small organizations are fundamentally insignificant to Tanjen, especially after Medicine Valley had suffered a significant setback. Members of True Life have more to seek from their alliance with Tanjen.If Remus offered a bounty of pills to get revenge on them, a multitude of independent cultivators, small organization
Remus turned his attention back to Glinda. He said slowly, "I was only joking. I saved you because I wanted to, not to hold it against you. Please, tell me what you just saw and I'll take care of everything."While he did indeed desire Glinda, a true gentleman would not take advantage of someone's vulnerability, let alone threaten them.The moment he finished speaking, her clothing suddenly slipped off, leaving her standing completely naked in front of him."What?" Remus felt his blood start to flow faster throughout his body. He could barely control the desire surging within him.After a series of inner struggles, rationality ultimately came out on top. This matter was extremely significant for any girl, and he couldn't let her feel wronged.He turned around and prepared to leave. "There are matters I need to handle outside."He was about to go out and see what exactly was happening. He wanted to know the reason behind Glinda's sudden change.However, as he took a step forward,
In Earl's perspective, Silver was nothing but one of his many lovers, devoid of any genuine affection. However, despite this apparent detachment, she had made a promise to resist Remus' advances. Yet, here she was, entangled in forbidden contact inside the room.Her actions were a blatant insult, causing everyone to ridicule him. How could he not be furious?A disciple suddenly approached from the side and reported, "Deputy Holmes, the representative from the Gresun Organization has arrived!"Earl paid little attention to the independent cultivators or small organizations. However, when it came to representatives from the six major organizations, he still felt the need to personally welcome them and uphold the responsibilities of a gracious host."Got it!" Earl gritted his teeth, reluctantly withdrawing his gaze.He took a deep breath and adjusted his emotions, comforting himself to not dwell on it.As he prepared to leave, a group of cultivators, dressed in sky-blue robes with m
Earl felt his chest tighten and he was unsure of how to respond.At that moment, another disciple hurriedly reported, "The representatives from the Crimson Valley Organization have arrived, and Master Irving is leading them!"Upon hearing this, Earl felt a great sense of relief and said, "Ms. Hewalt, I'll go and greet them first."He turned around gracefully and made his way toward the reception area. Once he spotted Master Oden Irving of the Crimson Valley Organization, he extended his hand and offered a respectful salute. Before he could greet him, Earl was stunned by the surrounding air around him and his disciples.Oden had a stern expression and he was wearing an opulent silk attire that radiated authority. He raised his hand to interject, "Deputy Holmes, let's drop the formalities. I've been informed of Remus Calsberg's arrival. Can you please inform me of his current whereabouts?"Earl nearly spat out a mouthful of blood. The fact that even Master Irving was searching for R
The atmosphere outside immediately became tense, and everyone there wore expressions of disbelief. While Remus was indeed daunting, they never expected that Remus would dare to tell the members of Crimson Valley to "get lost".Medicine Valley, though renowned, paled in comparison to the prestige of Crimson Valley. While Medicine Valley flaunted its reputation as an alchemical organization, its pills merely served as optional supplements. In stark contrast, the Crimson Valley Organization held the authentic second rank in True Life, standing only beneath the esteemed Violet Sanctum."You ..." The disciples from Crimson Valley were furious. The notice affixed outside of Tanjen Organization had already ignited their anger, and now the audacious command to "get lost" only served to further fuel the flames of their wrath.The disciples were about to rush in when Oden suddenly raised his hand to stop them. His expression also started to turn grim.He said coldly, "Master Calsberg, I ha
"Master Irving, feel free to use any means at your disposal. If I voluntarily take down the notice, I won't be Master Tanjen anymore!"Remus turned around, preparing to leave Violet Sanctum with Glinda.As he turned around, Oden's spirit energy abruptly burst forth. A formidable pressure swept through the entire area, causing even the air to quiver in its presence.Chase and the others' expressions started to warp strangely. They hastily retreated dozens of steps before finally managing to stop their bodies from trembling.Remus too found himself held down by the oppressive force. Astonishingly, it felt like the skies were pressed down on him, making every breath a laborious effort.Oden calmly stated, "You may think that you can resist me because many people rely on Tanjen Organization. But if I intervene, you won't have any opportunity!"For the first time, Remus felt the overwhelming strength in power. Confronting Oden's innate cultivation, he realized that even at his zenith,
Oden couldn't help but furrow his brow upon hearing Morven's words.Remus was the one who brought the conversation to this point. If he still endured it, it would bring even more shame to the Crimson Valley. However, he couldn't refuse Morven publicly and could only turn to the two elders.The elder mocked, "Master Howell, you have no say in this matter. Imagine if I were to declare in Crimson Valley, 'No entry for Gresun Organization's disciplines and dogs', what would you do? Does a single statement from me settle things for you?"The other elder chimed in, "What's happening here has nothing to do with you. If you can speak, speak. If you can't, we won't treat you as if you're mute. However, if you insist on speaking when you're unable to, I won't hesitate to sew your mouth shut!""You all ..." Morven never expected them to be so blunt, leaving him momentarily red-faced and speechless.He instinctively glanced at Oden. If these two elders weren't showing him an ounce of respect,
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
