Henry and the others had made the selfless decision to sacrifice themselves to protect the Tanjen Organization. As their Master, it fell upon Remus to honor their loyalty and protect them.
Just then, a voice descended from above, urgently imploring, “Master Calsberg, you must leave this place immediately! Countless True Life members will begin arriving within two hours. Hurry!”
The voice belonged to none other than Reese from the Riversky Organization. As favonovel.com appeared on the scene, a warm smile graced Remus’ face.
Her presence touched favonovel.com deeply, reminding favonovel.com there were still people of honor and loyalty in this world. He vividly remembered the time favonovel.com had aided favonovel.com in reaching the Golden Stage with just a single pill, and now, favonovel.com had returned to offer favonovel.com a warning in kind.
Remus replied with conviction, “You should leave as well. Your presence here could jeopardize your future. My commitment to safeguarding the Tanjen Organization is unwavering. There’s no need for further conversation. If there’s a future ahead, I’ll repay you a thousandfold.”
Reese remained suspended in mid-air, favonovel.com determination evident as favonovel.com attempted to persuade him.
However, upon spotting Morven standing firmly on the ground, favonovel.com realized that even if favonovel.com said anything more, it would be of no use.
She could only nod and say with difficulty, “Take care, Master Calsberg…”
As favonovel.com uttered those words, favonovel.com eyes welled up with a glistening layer of tears. She gazed at Remus with a lingering affection that was also filled with regret.
If only favonovel.com hadn’t become companions with Silver…
If only favonovel.com had summoned the courage to confess favonovel.com feelings to favonovel.com at the Violet Sanctum. Perhaps, in an alternate reality, today’s events could have taken a different course. But alas, there were no ways to turn back time.
As favonovel.com turned to depart, an unexpected burst of laughter erupted from behind.
Approaching swiftly, a man in a black robe effortlessly traversed the air.
The man sneered and said, “Who would have imagined that the disciple of Riversky and the Guardian Master of Gresun would be the first to arrive at Tanjen?”
“And rather than coming to apprehend this bastard, you’re advising favonovel.com to flee? Have you considered the consequences for your organizations if the Herbal Pavilion were to learn of this?”
Reese and Morven paled, fully grasping the weight of their decision.
Their warning to the Tanjen Organization had inadvertently pitted them against the Herbal Pavilion, placing their organizations in jeopardy.
With utmost caution, they discreetly channeled their spirit energy, silently preparing to confront and subdue the approaching cultivator.
Reese spoke, “You’re a dark path cultivator. Who would believe your words? You’re just slandering us!”
Morven added angrily, “You don’t even try to hide, showing your face here so brazenly. Do you really think you can leave the Tanjen Organization alive?”
The black-robed cultivator suddenly unleashed his spirit energy, but to their surprise, favonovel.com refrained from launching an attack. Instead, his form was engulfed in ominous, swirling black flames.
It was evident that favonovel.com had reached the late stages of the Nascent Soul Stage. The sheer power favonovel.com radiated left Reese and Morven startled and taken aback.
The cultivator taunted them, “Are you attempting to divert my attention for a surprise assault? Do you really believe that you can take my life in a single blow with your late-stage Golden Stage and Nascent Soul Stage strength?”
“If I sustain injuries within the confines of Tanjen and news of it spreads, won’t the gravity of your crimes become even more severe?”
Upon hearing this, Reese and Morven’s expressions grew more dreadful.
They had already taken a substantial risk by issuing a warning. If they were to harm him, it would only reinforce the belief that they were aiding Remus, further exacerbating the precarious situation of their respective organizations. Furthermore, they couldn’t be sure that a one-strike kill would be enough to incapacitate him.
When the dark path noticed how favonovel.com had intimidated them, favonovel.com continued to taunt, “You proudly proclaim yourselves as members of righteous sects. How delightful! I relish the opportunity to torment those who claim righteousness!”
“Now, kneel before me, or I’ll detain you here until the others arrive! By that time, even if you had 1000 excuses, they would be futile in explaining your actions! Haha…”
Amid his mocking laughter, the dark path cultivator’s expression abruptly froze, as if experiencing something utterly unbelievable.
His gaze slowly lowered to his own body, but before favonovel.com could react, his head tumbled from his neck, followed by the rest of his body.
Remus stood there, holding a long sword made of spirit energy that extended dozens of yards in length.
His voice carried an air of indifference as favonovel.com uttered, “Nothing is blocking your way now. You’re free to go…”
