His voice surpassed that of the entire family, his expression more astounded than theirs.
“Sir, what’s wrong? What happened?” The crowd asked one after another.
Greg seemed as if favonovel.com couldn’t hear them. His eyes were fixed on the news with the bold title, “Public Trial of Jake Spark!”
“Recently, the global industries of the Spark family have suffered one blow after another, witnessing a staggering 99.9% reduction in assets! Simultaneously, due to their inability to sustain the Grandmaster of Wizardry, even more evil deeds have been unveiled!”
“It appears that the Spark family’s life expectancy was set at 70, and favonovel.com was providing for the Grandmaster to employ dark wizardry to absorb the blessings of families far and wide, converting them into his own fate and longevity!”
“According to insider sources, the fame of the once acclaimed foremost figure in Lenzbay, Master Sandoval, was also manipulated. The aim was to use Master Sandoval’s reputation to more advantageously absorb the blessings of various families! Sometime ago, when the Immortal descended upon Lenzbay, it was because the Immortal couldn’t stand his wrongdoings and took action to rectify the situation!”
After reading the entire news, thunderous shocks reverberated through Greg’s mind.
The other members of Gracefields also stood there in stunned silence, as if they had been transformed into statues.
They were all left utterly stupefied. None of them had expected that what Remus said was true.
Snow exclaimed in astonishment, “If that’s the case, then the real threat to us was Jake Spark, and Remus has actually been helping us all this time?”
A family member said in terror, “That means it was indeed a Lucky Apple, and we actually gave it to Jake? Did favonovel.com use it to drain our lifespans?”
“That night, Remus told us to let the chicken eat the rice soaked in blood. Was favonovel.com actually trying to help us prevent Jake Spark from taking our lifespans? So, when Remus said before that we could only live for seven days, was favonovel.com really just trying to frighten us?”
They spoke one after another and their words filled with increasing despair.
They finally realized that they had misunderstood Remus all this time. Not only did favonovel.com not seek revenge against them, favonovel.com had been helping them all along. If it weren’t for him, they would have perished at the hands of Master Sandoval when favonovel.com came for the Lucky Apple.
“We were wrong, we’ve been wrong from the very start!” Greg’s face was blank, and favonovel.com mumbled dully, “Do you all still remember? Remus didn’t just start helping us now! When Ned Reese threatened the lives of our family, favonovel.com was the one who came to assist us…”
“If favonovel.com hadn’t, we would have been dead long ago, and the Gracefields would have already been under Ned’s rule! He fought fearlessly at Black Lake, so why did we think favonovel.com would harm us? Remus is a man of honor and loyalty, we were truly blind!”
It was like a thunderbolt had struck on a clear day in the minds of the crowd. Their beliefs were thoroughly crushed.
Snow trembled all over, murmuring to herself, “We even scolded Sera like that, pressuring favonovel.com to sever ties and force Remus to help…”
“Hurry, back to the Imperial Villa now!” Greg didn’t wait for favonovel.com to finish speaking, favonovel.com sprinted toward the Imperial Villa, with everyone following suit.
Soon, they arrived at the front gate of the Imperial Villa again.
“Kneel!” Greg’s voice echoed loudly, roaring toward the Imperial Villa, “Sera, Dad was wrong!”
The Gracefields all knelt down in unison, filled with remorse. Their roar was powerful like a thunderclap,
“Sorry, we were wrong!”
But the Imperial Villa before them remained motionless, its presence looming in complete tranquility.
Tears streamed down Greg’s face and his voice choked, “l was wrong, I shouldn’t have scolded you like that. Please come out, give us another chance, one last chance!”
The Imperial Villa was still, without a single sound.
He reiterated firmly, “If you don’t come out, we’ll kneel here until you make an appearance!”
Still, the Imperial Villa was silent.

Meanwhile, inside the ancestral hall of the Cosbys.
Starry Cosby was pacing back and forth in the main hall with his hands behind his back. His heart was burning with impatience.
