Chapter 302: Solarclaw Tiger.
“Young master, why are you smiling?” Venak asked, peering at Oasis curiously.His lips had been curled in a soft, lingering smile ever since they passed the group of old man Jio.Oasis, still seated with ease atop his Equinore, eyes half-lidded in reminiscence, replied, “That old man… he treated us like a father would treat his son, watching him leave for war.""He spoke with the love of a parent—his words weren’t cautionary for the sake of fear, but of genuine care.” His voice was soft, reverent, like someone recalling a dream they didn’t want to wake from.“It’s fascinating that in this world of strength, chaos, and survival… people like that still exist.”He paused, the wind brushing against the loose strands of his dark messy hair. “And I’m certain… he knew who we were.”Du Shiye raised a brow. “Mmh, you say? So if he knew—and has heard the rumors about you, young master—doesn’t it mean he shouldn’t have needed to warn us about an A-rank mystic beast?""With your strength, you cou
Chapter 301: Fatherly instinct.
Murmurs. Murmurs. Murmurs.The cries echoed through the dense canopy of Verdant Forest, tangled amidst the scent of blood, scorched bark, and the sour tang of ruptured beast bile.A narrow dirt pathway wound through thick emerald underbrush, where vines curled like serpents and roots sprawled beneath dense foliage.Here, a group of weary but battle-hardened adventurers clashed violently against two massive, C-rank Vine Serpents.The creatures writhed—thick-scaled, sinuous beasts with shimmering green hide glistening in the afternoon light.Thorny vine-like appendages sprouted along their backs, slashing wildly and lashing at anything within reach.Their eyes gleamed with feral intelligence, and from their forked tongues dripped corrosive venom that sizzled against stone.A blade clanged against scale.Sparks danced in the air.Flames burst as a fire mage let loose a Blazing Palm, only to be slammed back by the force of a coiling tail.Spells collided midair, wind and fire arcing acros
Chapter 300: Can a tiger feel pressure from a kitten?
“I can’t believe we’re finally leaving this place. It was nice and all... the food, especially,” Eirene said cheerfully, brushing a lock of violet hair behind her ear as she stood near the inland gate of Bitterhoney Port.Zane stood beside her, arms folded, his sharp gaze drifting across the crowd with mild interest, while Lancelot stood quietly to his side—his expression as composed as ever, offering only a subtle smile in agreement.Not far from them, Zion waited as well.He stood still and aloof, dressed in robes with silver-blue hems, his cold eyes resting on nothing in particular.To his right stood Ragar, broad-shouldered and armored in lightweight scale-plate that shimmered like condensed smoke.And on Zion’s left was Melven, the quiet lean member of Blood Letum—the same man who had been present when Oasis met Iris for the first time.All of them now stood gathered, waiting at the gates for the last of the brothers—Zenon—and his retainers to arrive.“We can finally go home now,
Chapter 299: Daku(2).
Days passed.Daku continued his shadowy surveillance, tailing Zane wherever he ventured from the Sweet Tooth Inn.Like a ghost behind curtains, Daku drifted through streets and alleyways, melting into crowds and fading into corners, his presence as imperceptible as mist before dawn.He never missed a step.But even with his legendary stealth and honed instinct, not once did he find a viable chance to snatch the boy from the open streets.And what unsettled him most wasn’t the lack of opportunity—it was Zane himself.Carefree. Cheerful. Bursting with laughter and joy, the young master of the Bluemoon family moved like someone untouched by shadows.He cracked jokes with his retainers, sampled street foods, marveled at artifact shops, even danced with local children under string lights that sparkled at night.It was like Zane was on vacation… while Daku was drowning in paranoia.“They’re enjoying life,” Daku thought bitterly, “and I’m out here—sweating, calculating every step like I’m th
Chapter 298: Daku.
“So this is the brat said to have the Moon Blooming Lotus…” Daku muttered under his breath, barely louder than a whisper, his tone soaked in wary awe.Despite the warm light of the rising sun cascading across the artifact district—washing over stalls glimmering with enchanted jewelry, fluttering merchant banners, and spell-infused trinkets—Daku’s gaze was fixed solely on Zane.His figure moved effortlessly through the crowd, laughter in his voice, pride in his eyes.“He looks cheerful… friendly even… but something about him is off. Dangerous,” Daku thought, lingering a few rows behind, effortlessly integrating himself with the morning bustle.He looked like any other traveler—modest brown robe, a satchel strapped across his chest, a half-broken fan in one hand, bargaining occasionally with merchants about prices that never really mattered.But beneath the mask, this was Daku of the Starfall Consortium, one of their finest in the arts of stealth, infiltration, and reconnaissance.He ha
Chapter 297: Vast as air.
The morning mist had long faded, and the sun now gleamed brilliantly upon Bitterhoney’s Artifact District, a long avenue paved in glimmering stone and lined with towering shops shaped like pagodas and towers of jade and obsidian.This part of the port was sacred ground for collectors, mages, and cultivators alike — a district where only artifacts were sold.Each shop glowed faintly with runes of security, protection, and appraisal magic, humming softly in the air.The scent of incense mixed with the fragrance of aged parchment and mana-infused metals.Floating display cases drifted outside storefronts, each holding rare rings, blades, pendants, and robes.Shopkeepers called out from their balconies while cultivators bargained in hushed tones over relics that could level cities or preserve life in a dying breath.Zane walked amidst the market in a flowing blue coat lined with white fur, eyes wide with boyish curiosity.Beside him trailed Lancelot, vigilant, and Eirene, arms folded, cur
