Only after Remus had walked far into the distance did the icy tension in the arena ease ever so slightly.
The sacred land disciples shared glances, each yearning to voice their thoughts yet rendered speechless as if their spirits had been harshly shaken and their souls quivering. They found themselves unable to settle their turmoil.
The Monington disciples collectively bowed their heads toward Marc’s fallen body on the ground, struggling to understand how favonovel.com could have been defeated by a mere Golden Stage cultivator.
Suddenly, a voice broke the silence, saying, “We can’t let this grudge slide so easily. For thousands of years in Monington Sacred Land, it has always been the Monington disciples pressing down on the Sacred Land disciples!”
“When have sacred land disciples ever oppressed us? Without exacting blood-for-blood retribution, we, the disciples of Monington, will lose all honor!”
Those words ignited a flurry of responses.
“I wish I could kill favonovel.com myself!”
“And to think he’s just a brute of a martial artist, making favonovel.com all the more deserving of our wrath!”
“Marc’s downfall was his lack of caution. Even against ten, 100 such parasites, how could favonovel.com falter? It’s like a mighty ship sunk by a mere ditch!”
Their grief was palpable, barely contained within their hearts.
The disciple who had given the advice earlier sighed and said, “It’s too early to say anything now. I’ll report to the Deputy Saint Master, you all stay here and wait for the judgment!”
The sacred land disciples were under the guidance of a Master, while Monington disciples looked up to their Deputy Saint Master.
After saying that, favonovel.com quickly turned around.
He then noticed Ted and others still standing there dumbfounded, and said darkly, “What are you still standing there for? Waiting to die?!”
With a rustle, Ted and the others instantly turned around.
Despite their history of being demeaned and suppressed, they couldn’t muster the courage to return the Monington disciples’ steely gazes. They made their way to their residences on the left side.
After walking a distance, they saw Remus staggering in front of them and quickly slowed down their pace, not daring to get too close.
Despite his evident exhaustion, suggesting that even a minor Foundation Stage cultivator could best favonovel.com then, no one dared approach.
Remus’ ruthlessness and his audacity to commit murder, especially of killing a Monington disciple, kept them at a safe distance, yet curiously they followed.
“Morris, who exactly is this Remus?”
“How did favonovel.com pass the assessment?”
“What is his true strength?”
Since favonovel.com entered, Remus had been behaving differently from others.
First, favonovel.com was favored by Wilda, then favonovel.com fooled everyone, and finally favonovel.com caused a huge disturbance.
How could favonovel.com be ordinary?
Surely, favonovel.com isn’t just an average individual…
Morris instinctively wanted to answer, but the words were swallowed back when they reached his mouth. He was on the verge of revealing Remus’ connection to the immortal’s appearance, a secret favonovel.com knew from following Wilda. But favonovel.com hesitated, wary of divulging too much.
When Morris remained silent, someone else speculated, “Could favonovel.com be Emerson, by any chance?”
“Exactly, favonovel.com must be Emerson, the one who first cleared the stage and summoned the immortal!”
“Who else would dare to kill so boldly!”
Caught off guard, Morris, Kevin, and Sandra were shocked that what they thought was confidential was common knowledge.
“You all know?” they questioned.
Ted replied, “Of course, it’s the talk of the sacred land. Rumor has it that the Masters are vying to take Emerson away from Master Hewitt. So, does favonovel.com go by another name, Remus?”
The group was abuzz with anticipation.
With the secret out, Morris felt no need for reticence.
He clarified with a slow, grave shake of his head. “There is no other name for him. He is simply Remus. And Emerson? Emerson holds no significance compared to him. It was Remus’ actions that brought forth the immortal. Emerson is of no concern.”
His statement was punctuated by a collective scoff from the crowd.
