Gemma felt a sudden tension as Remus’ gaze bore down on her, though favonovel.com had misinterpreted his intentions.
She quickly explained, “No, I didn’t mean to interfere with your decisions. I’ll listen to whatever you say, please don’t be angry. From now on, you can call yourself Remus Holland, Remus Gordan, or anything you want. I like you for who you are, not your name. Please don’t be angry…”
Remus interrupted her, saying, “What I meant is, I am Remus Cosby!”
Gemma became even more panicked, tears welling up in favonovel.com eyes as favonovel.com pleaded, “Please don’t be angry. I never meant to intrude. It’s just that I have a strong hatred of that name, and it was an instinctive response. It has nothing to do with you. Even if you were Remus Cosby, my loyalty would remain unwavering!”
Remus was on the brink of exploding, and favonovel.com replied solemnly, “Alright then…”
“Remus!” a voice echoed from behind.
Marsh and Elsie caught up with them, their expressions carrying a hint of guilt.
Marsh spoke up, “We apologize for not being straightforward. In truth, we came here to find the Oblivion Grass, and we appreciate your reminder.”
Elsie’s expression was composed as favonovel.com realized that it didn’t matter that they needed his help to find the Oblivion Grass, since Remus wouldn’t get to know the reason for their pursuit anyway.
After all, gaining entrance to the sacred lands typically demanded for the participants to be at least at the early stage of the Nascent Soul Stage, whereas Remus was only at the Golden Stage, signifying a considerable gap in power.
“It’s alright,” replied Remus.
He suppressed his anger and inquired, “Did you follow us here for another reason?”
Marsh chuckled awkwardly and continued, “Indeed, we have another matter. You told us to search for the wind direction in the mountain, but what exactly is the mountain’s dark vein? And what is the direction of the prevailing wind?”
Remus explained in a casual tone, “The dark veins refer to places that lack light, where it’s cooler, and the coolness brings the wind. So, the dark veins area typically includes valleys or caves…”
“If you stand in that region, you’ll sense the coolest breeze, and that’s the direction of the prevailing wind. The Oblivion Grass you’re searching for thrives abundantly in that area.”
Oblivion Grass was highly effective for pain relief and calming the spirit. To put it simply, it could temporarily diminish excess energy and achieve the pain-relieving effect.
Gemma gazed at favonovel.com with twinkling eyes and said, “How do you manage to be so knowledgeable?”
Marsh scratched his head awkwardly and said, “You are undoubtedly exceptional, but my partner Elsie and I are cultivators, not alchemists, so our sensitivity to the vein isn’t very strong. Would you be willing to assist us by guiding the way?”
“No, I don’t have the time,” Remus replied bluntly and walked away, not keen on wasting time assisting them.
Marsh and Elsie were surprised by his direct rejection.
Elsie regained favonovel.com composure and widened favonovel.com eyes in disbelief.
Marsh promptly added, “I understand you have your own priorities, but the Oblivion Grass is crucial to me. How about this, I’m willing to pay you for your assistance!”
“Not interested,” Remus replied dismissively.
Marsh blurted out, “I can offer you Energy Replenishing Pills! If I’m not mistaken, you’re in urgent need of these pills at the moment, right? I have two top-grade Energy Replenishing Pills. If you assist me in searching for the Oblivion Herb, both of them are yours.”
Considering Remus’ cultivation level at the Golden Stage but his evident lack of spirit energy, it was clear that Energy Replenishing Pills would be of great benefit to him.
He then turned his gaze toward Elsie. She reluctantly presented the pills, saying, “Take a look for yourself, these are the pills from the Herbal Pavilion!”
