Paul, who was interrupted earlier, also spoke. "We also have to consider what will happen if this matter reaches the Upper Realms. If Remus' identity is revealed, and word spreads there, the immortals from the Upper Realms will definitely come to question us."After all, they're nemeses, and the Upper Realms would want to handle Remus themselves. We probably won't be able to calm their emotions if we try to intervene."In brief, if the Upper Realms found out, they would certainly question why Remus wasn't captured alive.After they expressed their opinions, their expressions grew even more grim. No matter what they did, there was risk involved, and it seemed like a no-win situation from every angle.Roman glanced around at everyone's faces.The truth was, he never imagined Remus would cause such a commotion. After all, he was just in his spectral state. Roman originally thought he would be content with cultivating quietly in the cave like Rafael. No one would go to that cave, anyw

It was a bit strange to say, but the Demon Lord had two forms. If Remus couldn't get through to her when she was in this form, he could try doing so with the other one.However, Candace shook her head and said, "I am Candace. The one who has an engagement with you, not her, so there's no point in meeting her. I'll ask you one last time, does this interrupt you from completing your task?"As soon as she said that, the atmosphere inside the cave suddenly became much more oppressive.Remus was momentarily stunned, feeling a bit awkward, but he didn't have time to dwell on it at that moment.He responded, "Of course, my intention was to complete the task. On the way, I came across a marriage contract, so I wanted to come back and clarify. Since you're Candace, I'll ask you directly—Will you honor the engagement?"He needed to change the subject away from the task, or they would end up going in circles.Candace furrowed her brow. "If you can complete the task, I'll uphold my promise,

At that moment, the sound of people landing on the ground rang out from outside the cave.Soon after, Dawson's voice could be heard. "Demon Lord, please come out for a chat."Candace sharply turned her gaze and spat out, "Scram!"There was a complete lack of respect in her tone and even a strong sense of disdain."You..." Dawson, who was outside the door, was momentarily at a loss for words, filled with rage.The other four ghost kings' lips also twitched, anger on their faces.In the entire Underworld, Candace was the most exceptional figure. She didn't follow the Underworld's rules, and there was nothing they could do about her.Roman said, "Demon Lord, didn't you send Remus to kill me? Now that I'm at your doorstep, why hesitate and hide away?"When Remus first left the Demon Lair, he immediately informed Roman about it. Roman just didn't care at all back then.Candace paused and looked out of the cave, her scarlet eyes becoming even more intense.She then turned her gaze

Seeing them approach, the demons, who were severely injured and had fallen to the ground, got back up again. They gathered again, forming a barrier once more in front of the cave.When the ghost kings stuck the barrier, the demons were forced to continuously retreat. They were nearly pressed against the cliff wall, and the barrier became shattered and fragmented."Burn your demon energy!" a demon roared.Hearing that, all the demons sat cross-legged simultaneously, and the demon energy was no longer coming out of their bodies. Instead, the energy flowed from the top of their heads, rapidly converging above into a barrier.It was still shattering a moment ago but was now suddenly revitalized, becoming even more solid than before, like an insurmountable barrier."A bunch of lunatics!" Grant couldn't help but curse.Burning demon energy was quite similar to burning essence blood in the Mortal Realm. Simply put, it meant sacrificing one's own abilities to create a barrier. If this ba

In this situation, it was only a matter of time before Candace met her demise.But at that moment, Remus' voice rang out from the cave as he emerged. "Let her go, and I'll go with you!"The truth was, he had been observing everything from the entrance, initially expecting the two to be locked in a stalemate. After all, Rafael was a demon lord, and with Rafael's abilities, taking on Roman shouldn't have been an issue.Both sides wanted to kill him, so a situation where they both lost was actually the best outcome for Remus.But he didn't expect Candace to be much weaker than Roman.At the moment, there really wasn't any other option. Since he was going to disappear no matter what, it might be better to do her a small favor. Perhaps one day, when his other fiancées came to the Underworld, she might be able to help them in return.When they heard Remus' voice, everyone turned to look. The demons kept silent, but the ghost kings' lips twitched with excitement. They had finally found
