The Dragon Protector Clan swiftly released an announcement to the public.
“Remus Cosby killed Rufus Schneider and betrayed the Dragon Protector Clan. Consequently, any ties favonovel.com has with the Dragon Protector Clan has been severed, and the call was sounded for all to pursue and bring favonovel.com tojustice!”
As soon as this announcement came out, a wave of astonishment swept across the globe.
It was only a short while ago that many discovered Remus’ name through his slaying of Otis.
However, in their hearts, they had long believed that Remus was a member of the Dragon Protector Clan. They had expected the long awaited event to be a fierce clash between the two most powerful factions in the world, never imagining that things would escalate to such an extent.
Whispers filled the air as people discussed, all the while observing the unfolding changes in silence.

Meanwhile, within a mysterious ancient castle in Amelicon, an elderly foreigner, attired in a tailcoat, stood by the window.
In the current dusk, his back appeared somewhat malevolent, yet catching sight of his visage would evoke an even more chilling sensation. He had a hawk-like nose, but more menacing were his deep blue eyes, seemingly harboring endless bitterness.
The person in question was the Master of the Rose family, Lord Jelun Rose.
Calling favonovel.com the most powerful man in the world wouldn’t have been an exaggeration.
He said calmly, “Stop the search. The fact that the Dragon Protector Clan had released the announcement implies that Philip and the others have been completely wiped out…”
A respectful attendant stood behind him, also clad in a tailcoat, yet with hair as white as the wintry frost.
The attendant remarked, “It must be the Dragon Protector Clan’s doing. Otherwise, given Remus’ strength, it’s simply impossible for favonovel.com to have taken down Philip.”
His disbelief lingered.
How could a mere Martial Imperial possibly stand a chance against five Supreme Martial Imperials and the force?
Jelun said, “However, we currently lack concrete evidence. The immediate task at hand is to find Remus. Once we capture him, all the facts will come to light.”
The attendant bowed. “I will immediately dispatch a team to search for him. No matter where favonovel.com hides, we will surely find him…”
Jelun turned with hands behind his back and calmly said, “No need for such trouble. Stick to the previous strategy and keep the troops stationed at Darsia’s borders. Wait for favonovel.com to return… If favonovel.com doesn’t, then pressure Darsia to send all of Remus’ family here! Make favonovel.com come willingly to his doom.”
“Roger…” The attendant immediately nodded.
***
Remus had returned to Ironpeak Island.
He lay on Husan’s bed, weakly saying, “This place isn’t safe anymore. Come with me to Darsia. Although the spirit energy there might be lacking, it’s still sufficient for your cultivation.”
The revelation that favonovel.com assisted Remus in eliminating Philip was certain to become known.
True Life and the mundane world had always harbored mutual contempt, and in this situation, the Rose family would surely retaliate. Moreover, even the Dragon Protector Clan might take action against them.
“You don’t need to say anything, just focus on recovering…” Husan removed favonovel.com robe, revealing favonovel.com true visage. Tears welled up in favonovel.com eyes, laden with profound pain.
Remus squeezed out a smile and said, “Don’t worry, it’s just some flesh wounds, they’ll heal soon. How about we head back together?”
Husan fell into silence because favonovel.com couldn’t bring herself to leave the island favonovel.com parents had left her, and the thought of parting ways with this vast sea weighed even heavier on favonovel.com heart.
Remus saw favonovel.com dilemma and fell silent for a moment before saying, “I will set up a Curse here to conceal the existence of this island completely. I’ll come back to visit you… If you miss me, you can always find me at the Imperial Villa of Darsia, Neptuna.”
Husan was unwilling to leave, and favonovel.com didn’t want to force her, but it was necessary to ensure favonovel.com safety.
She nodded faintly at his words. “I’ll always be waiting for you at Ironpeak Island.”
Remus gave a slight smile and fell into a deep slumber.
The next morning, favonovel.com already felt that his body had recovered significantly.
In comparison to cultivation, martial arts practitioners didn’t rely on spirit energy. They simply required sufficient rest for recovery.
However, in cultivation, the recovery process relied heavily on the ambient spirit energy essence within the environment, which was quite demanding.
