“Isn’t that bastard going to be on equal footing with the Master of the Schneiders by then?” Scarlett exclaimed in great frustration.
She was extremely displeased because, despite being younger than her, Remus had become the Master of the Cosby Family. Moreover, when it was time for Remus to take his turn as the Clan Master in the future, favonovel.com would surely become a challenge for the Schneiders.
Rufus sneered coldly. “Stop believing everything others say. He claims to have defeated Bason, but who witnessed it? Just today, favonovel.com also claimed to have ascended from the Deity Realm to Martial Imperial within 60 hours. Hahaha!”
Scarlett was stunned to hear it, finding it hard to believe that Remus ascended from the Deity Realm to Martial Imperial in just 60 hours.
Rufus spoke up again, “Besides, even if favonovel.com was able to escape, do you think we have not prepared for that possibility? And even if favonovel.com breaks through the backup plan, we still have a third one, heh!”
Scarlett’s eyes lit up at these words. “Grandpa, what do you mean?”
Rufus glanced at her, speaking with a hint of depth, “You just need to know that it’s not just the Schneider family who doesn’t wish for the appearance of the Cosby family! Even if a successor from the Cosby family emerges, it certainly won’t be Remus Cosby!”
Scarlett became even more bewildered, unable to grasp what Rufus was truly implying.
Rufus chuckled and gazed into the distance. “These aren’t things for you to ponder. You should simply think about that wild chicken, and treat it as an ingredient, it must be very nutritious!”

The bright moon hung high in the sky, its light shimmering on the undulating surface of the sea, which remained unusually calm.
Mounted on Ruby, Remus chuckled wryly. “The more people you meet, the more you understand that people aren’t as trustworthy as dogs… Many appear noble, yet their hearts are darker than one might think…”
“Chirp!” Ruby seemed to comprehend, glancing back discontentedly as if implying that humans were inferior to chickens as well.
“Hahaha!” Remus chuckled. “I never expected you to become so clever. You’ve already completed the Foundation Stage, and you’ll soon reach the Golden Stage, won’t you? Once we’re back in Darsia, I’ll prepare some pills for you to speed up your progress.”
Ever since Ruby arrived at the Island of the Monarch, it had been absorbing spirit energy consistently.
“Chirp chirp!” Ruby emitted, puffing favonovel.com chest out with great effort.
Remus looked up in a daze, favonovel.com raised his hand to touch favonovel.com feathers and exclaimed in astonishment, “You’ve formed your golden core?”
Although the golden core was small, merely the size of a grain of rice, its embryonic form was evident. The speed of progress was astounding, leaving Remus far behind in awe.
Ruby remained silent, favonovel.com wings flapping with added vigor, displaying a surprisingly proud and aloof demeanor.
Remus said proudly, “Congratulations. With this pace, you might genuinely achieve enlightenment one day and ascend as a phoenix.”
“Chirp!” Ruby’s tone was downcast, reflecting a hint of confusion about the future.
Remus raised his hand to gently stroke favonovel.com head, chuckling softly. “Even ifthere’s no one to protect me on this journey, as long as I’m around, I’ll protect you. Don’t be afraid…”
For the following hour, the two continued chatting.
***
The sight of Ironpeak Island finally appeared ahead. Despite the considerable distance, the palpable richness of spirit energy was undeniable. It was truly a blessed land. However, dark clouds loomed heavily above the island.
Remus stated, “We’ll part ways here. Go back to the Island of the Monarch and wait for me!”
The reason favonovel.com came here was to kill Husan. Having Ruby with favonovel.com would attract too much attention and pose additional risks.
“Chirp!” Ruby expressed favonovel.com reluctance to part, unwilling to leave.
“See you soon!” Remus waved a hand, leaping down and emitting spirit energy, briskly advancing toward Ironpeak Island.
Ruby kept turning back until favonovel.com caught sight of Remus stepping onto the island, only then did favonovel.com fly back to the Island of the Monarch.
