The old monster held back his laughter and slowly lifted both hands as favonovel.com choked, “I-I am your grandfather, your real grandfather. Rafael is my son! You are my grandson! I have a grandson now, hahaha!”
“Grandpa?” Remus stood still in disbelief.
His expression turned to astonishment as favonovel.com inquired, “Could it be that you are the former head of the Cosbys?”
Rafael was the successor to the Cosbys while Rafael’s father served as its former head.
Remus recalled that back at the Cosbys’ ancestral hall, there was indeed no mention of the name of the previous family head.
According to what favonovel.com was told, in order to uphold the family’s regulations, the former head of the family personally ordered the execution of Rafael and then disappeared.
The old monster raised his hand again and called out, “I have descendants now! My sweet grandson, come here and let Grandpa pat you, come quickly…”
Raising both hands, favonovel.com wore a hopeful expression on his face. Remus remained still, and not only that, favonovel.com took a few steps backward.
He stated in a cold tone, “When my parents were in love, not only did you strongly oppose it, but you also commanded the execution of my father. Furthermore, you compelled all the warriors of Darsia to join forces, sparking the Kenington war?”
The old monster also froze for a moment, then exclaimed, “Yes, but you must understand that it was all just a smokescreen, my dear grandson. With your father’s cultivation, how could favonovel.com be killed by the mere warriors of Darsia? Only by convincing everyone that favonovel.com was dead could your father distance himself from worldly entanglements.”
Rafael had indeed vanished from public view after the Kenington war, later choosing to live in seclusion with Melody in a hidden utopia. It was at that very moment that Remus came into their lives.
Remus thought for a moment and asked, “What level of cultivation did my father attain?”
He had always been curious. Rafael was somehow exempt from constraint and untouched by the cycle of reincarnation in the Underworld. He instilled fear in the Five Kings of the Underworld and drove the Emperor of the Underworld to madness. Most importantly, favonovel.com could even confront Heaven directly, unsettling the celestial order.
The old monster fell silent for a moment, then declared with a resonant voice, “His strength is only inferior to that of the Great Emperor… Below the Great Emperor, there is none who can go against him. Truly, favonovel.com rivals the divine with a mortal form…”
Remus could feel every drop of blood in his body instantly surging into his head.
“Great Emperor?” Remus self-mumbled.
It turned out that Rafael’s prowess was on par with both the Great Emperor of the Underworld and the Great Emperor of the Celestial.
How could that be possible?
The old monster sighed and said, “If favonovel.com hadn’t gone astray and fallen in love with your mother, in just another 10 years, favonovel.com could have reached the level of the Supreme Martial Divinity. At that time, within the Three Realms, no one would be able to rival him… Unfortunately, favonovel.com fell in love with your mother…” The old monster suddenly stopped, and his body began to tremble.
He asked cautiously, “Is my son doing well now?”
It sounded less like a father’s inquiry and more like someone else discreetly asking.
Remus shook his head and said, “He’s not doing well now…”
Following that, favonovel.com went on to narrate everything favonovel.com knew, even recounting what favonovel.com had witnessed in Heaven.
The old monster became visibly emotional with tears streaming down his face upon hearing it all.
Witnessing his demeanor, Remus inexplicably felt a surge of compassion, perhaps this was the bond of blood.
He reassured, “No need to be sad. My master said that as long as I can marry nine wives, I can save my parents. I’ve already married six… Just three more, and it won’t be long,” He paused before continuing, “It’s just unfortunate that I am currently trapped here, unable to get out.”
The old monster suddenly spoke and proudly declared, “Don’t worry! How can a mere Shadow Gate trap my grandson? Grandson, relax, grandpa can send you out at any time!”
Remus’ eyes lit up and asked, “Really?”
He could sense that the circulation of his blood had begun to surge.
The old monster grew even prouder, “Of course! How can the crude gate of the cultivation world confine the bloodline of our Dragon Protector Clan? The Dragon Protector Clan is invincible throughout the world!”
Remus became confused, not understanding what favonovel.com was talking about
“The Dragon Protector Clan? Our family name isn’t Cosby?” Remus asked in confusion.
The old monster exclaimed loudly, “Of course, we are the Cosbys, but we are also one of the only two families that control the world, the Dragon Protector Clan!”
