At the same time, the news of Marten’s failure to capture Remus was spread across Darsia.
Back at the Gracefield’s villa, Greg’s face was pale, and the cup favonovel.com was holding fell and shattered onto the ground. He asked in shock, “What? Remus Cosby is back? The leader of the Dragon Team failed to capture him?”
Snow was on the verge of crying as favonovel.com repeatedly nodded. “I don’t know what exactly happened, but we confirmed that Mr. Dragon returned alone. Greg, even Mr. Dragon failed to take favonovel.com to court. Is there anyone else in Darsia who is strong enough to hold favonovel.com back?”
After a pause, favonovel.com asked, “Will favonovel.com return to Centurio? Will favonovel.com take revenge on us? What should we do?”
Recently, they had been busy arranging for Seraphine’s marriage.
What if Remus finds out about it?
Greg started to panic and said, “The parliament order can‘t be revoked once it is made. Remus will definitely be executed. But we should still prepare ourselves. Let’s hide from him, and we’ll deal with everything else after he’s dead.”

At the Long’s villa, Tristian had been holding a party to celebrate Remus’ death for days. He immediately sobered up when favonovel.com heard that Remus had returned. “What? He’s back? What about the parliament orders? What did they say?”
The butler was nervous as favonovel.com replied, “All we know is the leader of the Dragon Team is at the parliament. However, there’s no further update on their next move.”
Tristan had all kinds of expressions on his face, and favonovel.com started to panic. “No, this can’t be. I have to run! I have to hide!”
He didn’t even change and quickly left the house.
The other families that wanted Remus dead also quickly packed their bags and fled with their families, scared that Remus would take revenge on them.
Meanwhile, those who cared for Remus, like Senior Baker, Goetz, and the others, were happy. However, they quickly became depressed again after remembering the execution was still in place.
***
At the same time, in a huge courtyard in Centurio.
Thousands of soldiers and many pinnacle top grandmasters were gathered. A huge hall with eight golden pillars was in the middle of the courtyard. This hall was built centuries ago.
This was Darsia’s parliament, and it gave off a mysterious and solemn aura. Every order that came out from this hall would affect the future development of Darsia and its people.
On the main seat was Solomon. He angrily smashed the cup and said, “What are you trying to do? Are you going against the parliament? Someone tell me, is favonovel.com trying to become enemies with Darsia?!”
On the side of the hall were four elders, and they were the other parliament members.
Everyone was looking at Marten, who was standing in the middle.
Marten thought about it before saying, “Sir Solomon, I feel like we need a long-term plan for this. Remus is strong, and favonovel.com will be a huge asset to Darsia.”
He always had this idea in mind, but favonovel.com couldn’t go against the parliament’s order. Moreover, Remus was a martial arts practitioner, so the Dragon Team had to take action against him.
Solomon glared at favonovel.com and said coldly, “Marten, what do you mean? Are you helping that imbecile? I haven’t had the chance to ask you. Why did you return unharmed? Was there no fight?!”
Marten’s expression was livid as it meant favonovel.com didn’t try his best and had taken Remus’ bribe. He said, “Sir Solomon, please mind your words. When experts fight, they only exchange one move. As a governor, you shouldn’t judge a martial art practitioner’s matters easily.”
The Dragon Team was a secret organization that worked for the government, so Marten also had the right to speak with the president. Therefore, favonovel.com wasn’t afraid of Solomon.
Solomon sneered. “Yes, I may not understand martial arts, but I know about contributing to the country and the importance of a war. So how is it possible that you came back without any injuries?”
That comment only made Marten even more furious.
