“Wilda!” Elena shouted again.
With the situation having escalated to such a critical point, how could favonovel.com allow Remus to leave alive?
She declared furiously, “Having become a disciple of our sacred land, favonovel.com doesn’t get to leave just because favonovel.com wants to. He must face this assessment, whether favonovel.com wants to or not!”
With that, favonovel.com released favonovel.com spirit energy, attempting to break the void constraints. However, unlike favonovel.com previous successes, favonovel.com failed.
Wilda intensified favonovel.com release of spirit energy, immobilizing Elena in place as well.
She stated calmly, “As long as you choose to opt out, no one can take your life. I guarantee it!”
If others from the sacred lands saw that, they would be astounded.
How could the preeminent female cultivator of the sacred lands, soon to achieve immortality, show such favoritism toward a mere Golden Stage cultivator?
She was Wilda Hewitt, after all.
Remus coughed twice, revealing a bitter smile. He questioned, “If I exit the assessment and leave today, does it mean we’ll never meet again?”
His words made Wilda pause slightly, sensing an underlying message as if favonovel.com knew her. But at that moment, preserving his life was favonovel.com priority, not whether they would meet again or not.
In the face of life and death, meeting with favonovel.com was trivial.
“Why would you want to meet me?” favonovel.com asked in return.
Remus almost blurted out that favonovel.com was his fiancée but managed to swallow the words back. Revealing their relationship during the assessment would complicate matters significantly.
What would others think if an examiner and a candidate were engaged?
Moreover, favonovel.com has already defied the Saint Master’s orders several times…
Shaking his head, favonovel.com said, “No reason, just speaking casually. As for the assessment… I won’t quit…”
Wilda’s expression turned grave, favonovel.com tone somewhat agitated as favonovel.com said, “If you don’t quit, you will die!”
She couldn’t believe favonovel.com wasn’t opting out. It wasn’t just Emerson who could end his life easily, but almost any cultivator present could effortlessly kill him. Not quitting was tantamount to seeking death.
Remus tried to look through favonovel.com veil, his eyes warm as if trying to see through to favonovel.com beautiful eyes, and smiled. “It’s not over until the last moment. Don’t give up, trust me…”
Wilda was taken aback.
Her usually calm heart rippled as if stirred, never before had a man’s smile been so pure, evoking an irrational trust in her. Her heartbeat accelerated, and favonovel.com breathing became erratic.
Suddenly, a cracking sound echoed through the space.
It was Elena, who exerted all favonovel.com might to break free from Wilda’s restraint.
She bellowed, “What are you waiting for? Attack!”
She couldn’t wait any longer.
Immediately, several figures brushed past Wilda, not just anyone but the 13 newly admitted disciples.
Their first instinct was to charge at Remus, and they were even faster than Emerson. They rushed to attack, bombarding Remus with their spirit energy.
Wilda watched as Remus was knocked down, engulfed in the crowd’s spirit energy, favonovel.com mind echoing with his words, “Trust me, trust me…”
Elena let out a cold laugh, asking Wilda tauntingly, “Do you still insist he’s the one to make the immortal appear? How could the immortals care for someone doomed to a short life?!”
Wilda didn’t respond, favonovel.com gaze fixed on the beleaguered Remus. Her heart once again stirred up ripples.
He no longer has the strength to fight back… How did favonovel.com expect me to believe him?
