“Go on… Just as you had the courage to descend, exert your strength to ascend. When you’ve reached a point where you can’t proceed further, I’ll guide you on what comes next,” said the old monster.
Perceiving an undertone in his words, Remus asked with surprise, “What about you? We should leave together!”
The old monster raised his hand, touching Remus’ face once again. Tears glistened in his pure white eyes.
He chuckled, “Only one person can leave at a time. You go first… When you reach the Dragon Protector Clan and find a martial master to guide you, go on and achieve the Supreme Martial Imperial, then come back to rescue me… Grandpa will be waiting for you here! Go on!”
Upon hearing about parting ways, Remus felt a strong reluctance within. Though their time together was short, the bond of family was unbreakable.
The old monster gave favonovel.com a pat, laughing as favonovel.com scolded, “Hurry up and scram, you stinky brat! You even dare to curse me and say you’ll pee on me. If you don’t leave soon, I might just end up giving you a thrashing!”
Remus blushed like a child caught misbehaving. At that time, favonovel.com truly had no idea that the old monster was his grandfather. He chuckled, “Okay, wait for me!”
After speaking, favonovel.com swiftly dashed upwards.
Previously, there was no room to maneuver in the cramped space. Now, favonovel.com realized his speed had surged drastically, reaching twice the speed of sound.
The Martial Imperial realm truly brings an all-around enhancement!
My senses, speed, and even strength have terrifyingly surged. Just with martial arts, I could battle against the pinnacle of Nascent Soul Stage! I could even crush early or mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators effortlessly!
After an unknown duration, favonovel.com finally sensed the sealing brick within arm’s reach, yet favonovel.com couldn’t touch it. He had reached the special trait of the Shadow Gate.
As favonovel.com was about to speak, the sealing brick above unexpectedly opened.
Earl’s face appeared before favonovel.com and they looked eyes instantly.
Earl’s expression twisted into a grimace as favonovel.com said, “You despicable mundane creature, you’re still alive? You’ve even crawled your way here? Are you trying to leave?!”
Remus smirked coldly and replied, “Yes, I’m leaving to kill you!”
Earl sneered disdainfully, “Kill me, huh? Impossible in your lifetime. By the way, I’m here to kill you! You wretch, I can offer you one last chance. Kneel down and knock your head a hundred times, and I’ll let you out!”
Remus retorted, “Do you think I’m as foolish as you? Silly bastard, stop barking. I’m getting out of here soon!”
He suddenly shouted down below, “I’m here. What’s the next move?”
“My dear grandson, could you call me grandpa?” The old monster’s voice came through, vastly different from before, laden with profound melancholy.
Earl, startled by the voice, exclaimed, “It’s been 20 years and the old monster is still alive? And favonovel.com let you call favonovel.com Grandpa? No… Wait… Cosby… You’re from the main lineage of the Cosbys? Are you the old monster’s grandson?”
Remus continued, “I should thank you for imprisoning me in the Shadow Gate. Otherwise, I might never have known I had family left. Once I’m free, I’ll express my gratitude properly!”
As favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com lowered his head and said, “I’m here Gr-Grandpa!”
Saying “grandpa” was still a struggle for him, the words not coming out clearly.
“My dear grandson, Grandpa will let you out now,” the old monster gritted his teeth and said firmly, “Remember, you’re the descendant of the Cosbys, heir of the Dragon Protector Clan! Hold on to the family’s legacy! My dear grandson… Grandpa is leaving!”
His sentence triggered something in Remus’ mind. His smile froze instantly, a sudden realization dawned on favonovel.com about what would happen next and a sense of helpless despair flooded his heart.
He shouted with all his strength, “N-No!”
