Upon hearing Scarlett’s inquiry, Rufus chuckled coldly, “The Rose Family!”

Meanwhile, on the cliffs of Ironpeak Island, the sea breeze swept through, the waves continuing their relentless rhythm.
Remus, bathed in moonlight, was thoroughly shaken.
He was always a person who believed in returning kindness for kindness and repaying grievances with grievances, never one to actively stir trouble. His attempt to assassinate Husan had already contradicted his principles, and now, knowing favonovel.com was a girl who understood gratitude, made it difficult for favonovel.com to act.
He was in a great struggle. On one hand, it was his grandpa’s final wish. On the other hand, it was an innocent person with a fate somewhat akin to his own.
Husan also sensed the dwindling killing intent from favonovel.com and chuckled. “If my life can be of use to you, it’s alright. You’re a decisive person, you shouldn’t hesitate…”
Remus’ conviction trembled once more. He usually adhered to strength, prepared to eliminate resistance, but favonovel.com was willingly facing a perilous situation.
He swiftly released his hand, rising to his feet. “You’ve saved your own life, I’ve decided not to kill you…”
He couldn’t muster the resolve to go through with it. All favonovel.com could do was return to the Dragon Protector Clan and find another solution.
Seeing Remus stand up, Husan raised favonovel.com gaze, favonovel.com eyes resembling the calm sea, blinking rhythmically.
She slowly said, “I’m not sure how much my life means to you, but if there’s another way I can help you, I’d be more than willing to assist.”
Remus stayed silent, aware that the Dragon Protector Clan focused on martial pursuits, and as a cultivator, Husan couldn’t offer much assistance.
Husan stood up and looked at Remus as if making a significant decision. She finally spoke, “In the path of cultivation and martial arts, the ultimate goal is achieving greatness. I may not be of help in martial pursuits, but I can assist you in cultivation! Do you know why Ironpeak Island is exceptionally abundant in spirit energy?”
“It’s because there’s a hidden chamber on the island. Somehow, the spirit energy from the surrounding sea pours into this chamber. Currently, the chamber has been sealed, slowing down the absorption of spirit energy.”
“If you’re willing, I can open the chamber for you to enter and protect you! With your cultivation at the Training Stage, you can achieve the Golden Stage in just a month, or even reach the Nascent Soul Stage!”
Remus shook his head bitterly, as favonovel.com hadn’t expected there could truly exist absolute kindness in this world. He was here to kill her, and what favonovel.com was revealing now might be Ironpeak Island’s biggest secret.
Moreover, the fact that favonovel.com was willing to let favonovel.com enter the chamber to absorb spirit energy, such kindness made Remus feel immensely guilty.
He turned to look at her, preparing to decline. On one hand, favonovel.com still needed to return to the Dragon Protector Clan, thus his cultivation level couldn’t ascend too much, and the spirit energy within his body couldn’t become too abundant. On the other hand, favonovel.com had to find a solution quickly and return in time.
But as his words reached the tip of his tongue, favonovel.com abruptly halted.
Remus didn’t refrain from speaking but was instead struck dumb by Husan’s breathtaking beauty.
He hadn’t closely observed favonovel.com appearance before. But now, as favonovel.com could finally calm his mind to look at her, there was an irresistible beauty that made his heart race uncontrollably. Except for his fiancĂ©es, favonovel.com was the first woman to make his pulse quicken like this.
Husan was momentarily taken aback by his gaze, instinctively about to pose a question to him, but then abruptly remembered that the mask on favonovel.com face had slipped off.
Suddenly, a warm blush painted favonovel.com cheeks, mirroring the radiant hues of the evening sky mirrored upon the tranquil sea.
Remus was the first person to see favonovel.com face after favonovel.com parents left the world.
She slowly lowered favonovel.com gaze, biting favonovel.com lip softly, and whispered, “If there’s nothing I can do to help you, then I’m also willing to repay the favor…”
Remus felt the blood from his entire body rush straight to his head all of a sudden.
