Suddenly, there was a noise at the lake’s bottom.
The spiritual energy around a practitioner exploded, causing the lake water to ripple continuously.
The other practitioners instantly opened their eyes and looked over. Although they were focused on their meditation, they were also extremely sensitive. Even the slightest disturbance could startle them.
“What’s wrong?”
“What happened?”
“Fellow, are you alright?”
Everyone expressed their concerns to favonovel.com one after another.
That practitioner was panting heavily, and his whole body tensed. He struggled to speak, “I apologize for disturbing everyone. I still can’t fully meditate. The scene of that scoundrel killing Grandmaster Burke keeps replaying in my mind. I can’t calm myself!”
Everyone went silent after hearing it.
The truth was that this kind of situation must have happened before. After all, it had only been three days since the great shock. It was impossible to fully recover so quickly.
Moreover, on that day at the lake, some practitioners were scared to death. Compared to them, they were much better now.
Finally, a practitioner gritted his teeth and tried to comfort the others, “Fellow, we’re all feeling uneasy. But if you think about it thoroughly, there’s no difficulty in this world that we can’t overcome…”
“Since we went on the cultivation path, none of us expected whether we could reach the Divine Separation Stage. We create the road, and Remus Cosby is only a hindrance along the way! Everything will be fine after we step over!”
The practitioner beside favonovel.com also chimed in, “That’s right! No matter how terrifying Remus is, he’s only frightening now. Remus Cosby will be nothing to us after we enter the Sacred Land and reach the Great Realm of Enlightenment, where we may one day achieve immortality! We can easily crush him!”
“Once we reach that day, we’ll think everything that happens today seems laughable!”
He said those as if favonovel.com were comforting the other practitioners, but it seemed favonovel.com was also comforting himself.
Listening to the two people’s advice, the others also spoke up.
“You’re right! Years later, Remus will be nothing more than a nobody. He wasn’t worth our fear at all!”
“So what if favonovel.com killed Grandmaster Burke? He has no chance against Saint Master! As long as we stay at the lake’s bottom, we’re under the Saint Master’s protection. No matter how bold favonovel.com is, favonovel.com wouldn’t dare come here again!”
“That’s right! If favonovel.com dares to come, the Saint Master will cut favonovel.com into pieces!” Another practitioner said righteously, “So what if favonovel.com comes? So what if favonovel.com wants to kill us? It’s nothing to lose our lives! If we were afraid of death, we wouldn’t have chosen the path of cultivating immortality!”
“Yes, if we’re afraid of death, we’re not a true practitioner!”
“Who’s afraid of death? I’m certainly not!”
They became increasingly agitated as they spoke. In the end, everyone was so worked up that it appeared that they all wanted to go after Remus, ready to risk their lives.
After hearing everyone’s words, that practitioner felt considerably more relaxed and was influenced by their emotions. He had the urge to take the initiative and seek out Remus as well.
He slowly stood up and said happily, “Thank you for your advice… I was being narrow-minded. I apologize… As you all said, what’s so terrifying about Remus Cosby? He’s only a practitioner. He may be advancing swiftly today, but it doesn’t mean he’ll always be ahead of the rest of us… Perhaps we can all surpass… Ugh!”
He abruptly stopped speaking and enlarged his mouth.
“Fellow? What’s wrong? Speak up. What’s going on?”
Everyone was completely confused when they noticed his expression.
Then, they saw that practitioner raise his hand, pointing toward behind everyone and tremblingly shouting, “R-Remus Cosby!”
Everyone heard his words and looked in the direction favonovel.com pointed.
In the distance, a man approached.
Although the rushing water obscured his face and caused it to alternate between light and shade, the bright moments revealed his features.
It was none other than Remus!
Everyone was startled and immediately stood up.
“R-Remus Cosby? Why are you back?!”
