A true martial artist’s combat skills transcended that of cultivator’s, being capable of taking on ten cultivators at the Nascent Soul Stage, and even those in the later stages or at their peak.
Among the cultivators behind Remus, only Husan had reached the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage.
A few were in the later stages, fewer than ten were in the middle stage, and less than 20 were in the early stage. 11 of them had just achieved the Nascent Soul Stage last night after undergoing the heavenly thunder tribulation and hadn’t fully recovered yet.
The remaining cultivators were all in the Golden Stage, only able to contend with the Supreme Martial Sovereign.
The Rose family simply had to deploy two Supreme Martial Imperials and 40 Martial Imperials to have a shot at prevailing against everyone. And with three Supreme Martial Imperials and 40 Martial Imperials, victory was a certainty.
However, the current situation comprised a total of four Supreme Martial Imperials, 40 Martial Imperials, and over 100 Supreme Martial Sovereigns. Remus and their group simply had no chance of winning. Most importantly, Remus didn’t want to burden anyone else.
He shook his head and said, “There’s no need for you to intervene. Trust me, there’s still a chance that I’ll survive…”
He turned his head, looking at Husan. “You can’t intervene either. You still have to protect this island, it’s what your parents left for you. You must honor it!”
His figure flickered, darting straight toward the Supreme Martial Imperial.
Witnessing this scene, Husan grew even more desperate and bellowed, “Remus!”
“Savior!” The cultivators were filled with disbelief, and instinctively tried to rush forward to stop Remus.
Remus asserted firmly, “I’ve made a decision, there’s no need for further conversation. If anyone dares to make a move, I won’t be able to rest in peace!”
He cast another glance at the elder before him. “We should leave now.”
He stated firmly to ensure that no one would intervene.
The elder gave a mocking smirk. “You’re different from the rumors. I thought you’d resist, but you’re surprisingly obedient. But then again, under the pressure of the Rose family, who can stand firm?”
He then waved his hand, and everyone began synchronously soaring through the air, heading toward the destination. The four Supreme Martial Imperials surrounded Remus closely, keeping a watchful eye to prevent favonovel.com from attempting to escape.
Husan gazed at the departing figure of Remus, tears uncontrollably streaming down favonovel.com face.
“Savior!” The cultivators were all teary-eyed, especially Hercules and the 11 Nascent Soul cultivators, and felt their hearts wrenched in pain.
***
Far across the sea, a lone figure held a Voice Transmission Rune, reporting the situation to the Monarch Palace.
“Master Walter, we just got an urgent message! Philip Rowe, the chief butler of the Ross Family, is personally spearheading a formidable team. This includes four Supreme Martial Imperials, 40 Martial Imperials, and 128 Supreme Martial Sovereigns, all on a mission to apprehend Remus on Ironpeak Island!”
“What?” Philbert shot up instantly, his complexion drastically changing.
Such formidable power could almost rival the might of one of the prominent families within the Dragon Protector Clan.
He quickly turned around and said, “Sir, such a formidable force is something Remus absolutely cannot contend with. We must dispatch someone immediately. If we delay any longer, favonovel.com stands no chance of survival!”
Garth remained silent, his brow furrowed in deep thought.
“It’s too late!” Rufus uttered in a deep voice, “Remus has already given up resistance and is being escorted toward the Rose Family!”
Philbert pondered for a moment, his anxiety evident. “We must dispatch someone immediately. It will take at least a day for them to return to the Rose Family. We can intercept them halfway. Sir…”
Rufus interrupted him, his voice cold and stem. “Philbert Cunningham, do you even realize what you’re saying? Rescue Remus? With the Rose Family mobilizing such a formidable force, how can we save him? Even if we try, our losses would be devastating. Is favonovel.com worth it? Does favonovel.com deserve it?”
Philbert swiftly turned around, furiously shouting, “Not deserving? He is the Master of the Cosby family, a member of the clan! Neither you nor I hold a status higher than his. How can the clan not attempt to save him?”
Rufus was no longer concealing his disdain as favonovel.com sarcastically inquired, “Who acknowledges favonovel.com as the Master of the Cosby Family? Is it the Cunninghams, or is it the Schniders? If favonovel.com is acknowledged as the Master of the Cosby Family, why did only Shawn from the Cunninghams attend last night’s gala?”
“You…” Philbert was left speechless as if a sudden realization had left favonovel.com dumbfounded.
He initially thought that their actions at the gala event from last night was just meant to teach Remus a lesson and encourage favonovel.com to refine his character. To his astonishment, it was actually them displaying their sincere refusal to acknowledge Remus.
“Enough!” Garth suddenly spoke, slowly rising to his feet.
