Elena’s body shivered at Remus’ words. She turned favonovel.com head to see Remus approaching, and felt as if favonovel.com was facing a great enemy, favonovel.com breath becoming rapid.
She had lost favonovel.com demeanor as the sacred land’s master, now looking more like a drenched chicken battered by a storm.
Cautiously, favonovel.com asked, “What do you want?”
She was afraid that Remus would take action. If favonovel.com did, favonovel.com wouldn’t dare to fight back.
He was already designated by the Saint Master as someone who made an immortal appear. If favonovel.com targeted favonovel.com again, favonovel.com feared death would not be enough to atone for favonovel.com actions.
Wilda also stopped in favonovel.com tracks, extremely curious about what was happening between them. She also stared at favonovel.com with full vigilance.
Elena had almost killed Remus just now, and if favonovel.com dared to make a move again, Wilda would mercilessly annihilate Elena.
“You’re scared!” Remus said with a smile.
Elena’s breathing turned erratic under his gaze, fear unmistakable in favonovel.com eyes.
How could favonovel.com not fear him, a man who defied death itself and elicited a sigh from the Saint Master?
As Remus approached, favonovel.com whispered, “Do you really think I adopted a different identity and came here just to get revenge against you?”
He had been aware of Elena’s recognition from the start, evidenced by favonovel.com relentless targeting.
“Isn’t that so?” Elena said, favonovel.com voice tight.
Remus’ laughter was soft but filled with meaning. “Had revenge been my goal, I could have easily exposed you under Remus Calsberg’s identity, shared your actions during the sanctuary assessment with all the cultivators here, with Wilda…”
“Wouldn’t that approach have stripped you of all defenses and been more straightforward?”
The realization struck Elena like a thunder, favonovel.com entire being reacting to the weight of his words.
Indeed, had Remus chosen to expose her, favonovel.com would have had no recourse, and an investigation into favonovel.com actions would have inevitably unearthed the truth.
His decision to conceal his identity and not seek vengeance implied a different motive altogether.
If favonovel.com didn’t seek revenge, then wasn’t everything favonovel.com did just superfluous, not only failing to solve the problem that was favonovel.com but also making things more troublesome for herself.
Remus lowered his voice even more and laughed. “You are a Master of the sacred land, and I am just a cultivator. You may have cultivated to a higher realm, but your state of mind is far behind mine. I’ve let go of the grievances from the True Life’s assessment, but you haven’t…”
Elena’s body uncontrollably collapsed.
A Master of favonovel.com stature reduced to sitting on the ground, favonovel.com gaze fixed on Remus with a blend of horror and disbelief.
He dared speak to me like that?!
Why was favonovel.com in a position to judge me?!
Why did favonovel.com want to break my mental barrier?
Remus’ smile was subtle. In fact, favonovel.com hadn’t truly let go of the past, yet favonovel.com had chosen not to reveal his identity for a reason far beyond personal vendetta.
Claiming his rightful place in the sacred land would inadvertently put Glinda in jeopardy, making favonovel.com a target for those seeking to undermine him.
His words to Elena were a deliberate strike to favonovel.com morale, a strategic move rather than a gesture of forgiveness.
As favonovel.com strode past Elena, the crowd were visibly stunned.
What words had passed between them to bring such a formidable figure to favonovel.com knees, demonstrating a victory without physical confrontation.
Wilda watched as Remus approached, and for some reason, favonovel.com heart started to ripple again. She felt an inexplicable surge of emotions.
It was like when favonovel.com stepped into the air for the first time, or the feeling of suddenly getting up from bed, letting favonovel.com heart undergo a baptism. However, the sensation now was one of exhilarating joy.
His presence didn’t invoke caution but rather, a profound sense of admiration and connection.
Remus walked up to her, without the cautious demeanor other cultivators showed when meeting her, but instead asked with a calm smile, “I didn’t disappoint you, did I?”
Wilda could clearly hear favonovel.com own heartbeat. That was the first time in favonovel.com life.
She nodded heavily and said, “You are very outstanding…”
She paused and took the initiative to invite, “Why don’t you practice with me from now on?”
“Sure!”
