Upon hearing Remus’ inquiry, the voice from within the dark clouds said, “They have been convicted. Rafael has been sentenced to be bound to the Lightning Pillar for 3000 years of thunder punishment, while Melody has been confined in the Nine Prison to endure 3000 years of solitude.”
He paused for a moment and continued, “Mr. Cosby, you are Melody’s only son. Among the entire Three Realms, only you can save her. You must grow quickly…”
Upon hearing these words, Remus’ eyes immediately reddened, every hair on his body standing on end as favonovel.com felt a thousand arrows piercing his heart.
If his parents hadn’t tried to rescue favonovel.com back then, they might have already escaped from danger.
Remus clenched his fists tightly and said with difficulty, “Thank you!”
“Wait!” The voice added, “Mr. Cosby, I didn’t mean for tonight’s event to be like this. It’s because Melody was just sentenced, and the Thunder Sect had a collective drinking session. I had a bit too much!”
Remus was stunned. Everything that had just happened was because they had drunk too much, and the reason for their drunkenness was related to his mother to some extent.
The voice hurriedly added, “I’m conscious now. Since you’re acquainted with them, shall I assist in shattering their Golden Cores?”
“Alright!” Remus replied clearly and descended swiftly.
As favonovel.com landed on the ground, everyone looked over again. Their eyes were full of questions, but no one dared to speak first.
Remus stated plainly, “I am a martial practitioner. I heard about Ironpeak Island, so I came out of curiosity. I shall take my leave now.”
Having said that, favonovel.com prepared to depart from the island. Since his identity as a martial practitioner had been exposed, staying would only draw attention and limit his opportunities. He planned to feign departure first, then stealthily return later.
“Wait!” Husan suddenly stepped forward a couple of steps and spoke up, “Thanks for lending a hand. Your kindness will be remembered forever. May I ask for your name? I’ll surely repay this kindness in the future!”
He bowed deeply to Remus. It was only up close that Remus noticed that his eyes were blue, indicating favonovel.com wasn’t Darsian.
The cultivators on both sides also bowed simultaneously. Even those who had been struck and were laying on the ground struggled to their feet to bow as well.
They spoke in unison, “Thank you for your help! May we know your name?”
Remus shook his head. He never sought repayment when lending a hand, favonovel.com believed that remembering the favor was enough.
Another reason was that favonovel.com still had to assassinate Husan. If favonovel.com mentioned his name, it would blow his cover.
“I’m just passing through, no need for introductions. If fate allows, we might meet again!” Remus once again prepared to depart.
Husan hurriedly said, “Are you in such a rush to leave because you’re worried about the conflict between cultivators and martial practitioners? Worried about danger here? If so, you need not worry. Ironpeak Island doesn’t judge you for your focus on martial arts. Nobody here will be wary of you.”
The others immediately echoed in agreement.
“Yes, we hold no hostility!”
“You’ve saved us! We haven’t even had the chance to repay you. How could we discriminate against you?”
“Are you here to absorb spirit energy? I… I can help you enter the Foundation Stage!”
Remus paused upon hearing their words. He glanced around briefly and noticed there was indeed no discrimination or wariness on their faces, only gratitude and a plea for favonovel.com to stay.
He asked in surprise, “You don’t hold disdain for martial practitioners? You don’t view martial artists as uncouth?”
Husan immediately responded, “Certainly not. The concept of cultivating or practicing martial arts is just a matter of choosing different paths. As long as it’s the right choice for oneself, then there’s no mistake. Who has the right to judge?”
“Furthermore, you emit a faint spirit energy, making you one of us cultivators. We are comrades!”
The hundreds of practitioners on the sides once again showed their agreement.
It was the first time Remus had experienced such kindness from so many people, and favonovel.com was unexpectedly touched. He nodded and said, “Alright, then I’ll stay a while longer!”
He wanted to first bask in the goodwill of the crowd for a while because returning to the Dragon Protector Clan where everyone harbored different intentions.
He added, “For those who wish to undergo tribulation, please continue your preparations. The heavenly thunder will strike again soon, but It won’t be as severe as before. I’ve taken care of everything!”
