Remus observed a particular group of people hurrying across the square, led by a white-bearded old man.
He wore a robe of celestial blue, with a prominently embroidered crimson alchemical furnace adorning the chest. It matched Raphaella’s attire perfectly, with the furnace’s hue even richer.
Could they be from Medicine Valley?
Remus contemplated for a moment before returning to his cultivation. He knew that no matter how hostile Medicine Valley was toward him, they wouldn’t dare to make a move in this place. His sole focus now was to patiently await nightfall to save Glinda.

“Where are the inner pill and spirit stone?” Earl inquired.
Silver appeared slightly awkward. However, favonovel.com had prepared an excuse on the way, and favonovel.com playfully said, “I’ve got it already. It’s just that he’s been keeping a close eye, making it inconvenient to bring it out. I’ll give it to you later tonight.”
She planned to sneak out with the inner pill and spirit stone when Remus went to rest at night.
“Really?” Earl seemed slightly skeptical.
“Of course it’s true, I would never dare to deceive you.” Silver smiled ingratiatingly. “That fool listens to my every word. He said he’d abandon me yesterday, but it was just a way to save his reputation. When favonovel.com came back, favonovel.com knelt down and apologized to me. He even said that from now on, all the pills would be under my control. Right now, he’s in his room reflecting!”
As favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com slowly edged closer to Earl.
Earl knew what favonovel.com intended to do. He quickly pulled favonovel.com into his embrace, while raising his hand to close the door.
Right at that moment, a disciple came quickly to report, “Deputy Holmes, Medicine Valley has arrived! Master Craig Graves is personally leading them!”
Silver was momentarily startled. Earl was slightly shocked too.
While the Witch-Slaying Summit was indeed significant, there was no need for Master Graves to come in person. Sending a deputy would have been sufficient.
Earl swiftly pushed Silver away and went to greet him.
Before favonovel.com could even get up, a group of people had already appeared outside the door.
At the forefront was the white-bearded old man that Remus saw, Master Craig Graves of the Medicine Valley Organization.
Earl stood up immediately. He clasped his hands and greeted, “Master Graves, it’s been a while. Your presence truly adds luster to the Violet Sanctum!”
In the past, Master Graves had employed the Semi-Immortal Furnace to produce the Nurturing Essence Pill for the Violent Sanctum’s current Master, which was the reason they had maintained a good relationship to this day.
Master Graves also clasped his hands and replied, “Deputy Holmes, you are too kind. The Witch-Slaying Summit is a crucial event for True Life, so it’s only natural for me to be here in person. But to be honest, the reason for my early arrival is because I have a favor to ask…”
Earl smiled and said, “Master Graves, please have a seat. Feel free to speak your mind.”
Master Graves took a seat. His mouth twitched slightly and favonovel.com spoke in a somber tone, “The reason for my visit this time is because of Remus Calsberg! I believe you’re already aware of Deputy Donovan’s duel with him…”
“Currently, favonovel.com and a hundred disciples from Medicine Valley are still crawling their way back. I’d like to ask for your intervention. When the representatives of the Tanjen Organization arrive, please have them cancel the bet.”
That was precisely the reason favonovel.com came in person. Initially, favonovel.com had intended to go to the Tanjen Organization and kill Remus Calsberg with his own hands. However, favonovel.com would be accused of being a sore loser and be subject to ridicule if favonovel.com did so.
He needed Violet Sanctum to serve as a mediator. There was still one day remaining until the Witch-Slaying Summit, if favonovel.com didn’t ask now, Raphaella and his disciples would still be crawling like dogs after the event ended. As the Master of Medicine Valley, favonovel.com couldn’t allow the sect to endure such humiliation.
“Well…” Earl started to say, then hesitated.
He had no desire to talk to Remus at this moment. The very idea of his presence made favonovel.com want to tear favonovel.com apart. Furthermore, favonovel.com was also deeply concerned that Remus might attempt to extort favonovel.com once again. However, since Master Graves personally arrived and asked, favonovel.com couldn’t ignore the situation.
Suddenly, a bright idea struck him.
Hmm… Why not let them fight amongst themselves?
