Chapter 226: Laughter in the breeze.
As the morning sun was casting golden ribbons across the sea, Venak leaned against the railing, his black short messy cropped hair barely swaying with the sea breeze. His eyes drifted toward the horizon, where jagged mountain peaks pierced the sky, and small green-tipped islands floated lazily on the sapphire waters like scattered jewels. He exhaled softly, savoring the rare peace. Footsteps padded softly across the deck behind him. “I see you’re enjoying the sight,” came a serene voice. Venak turned his head slightly, and there stood Meng Lianhua, elegance incarnate. She was no longer clad in her battle attire but wore a flowing violet robe that shimmered slightly under the sunlight. The fabric was sheer at the edges, giving the illusion of mist, while the inner layers were solid and hugged her form with subtle dignity. Her long hair was neatly tied back with a ribbon, and a faint fragrance of plum blossoms lingered in the air around her. Venak smiled. “Ah, Lianhua. How
Chapter 225: Comforting lullaby.
The eerie silence blanketed the island like a shroud, broken only by the rhythmic splash of water as waves lapped against its jagged edges. Smoke still lingered in the air from the fierce battle, curling into the dark sky as shadows of scorched trees and shattered rocks stretched across the sands. Blood had soaked into the cracked earth, and the distant cries of seabirds returned as if reclaiming their island. A quiet aftermath—haunting, somber, still.Oasis flew back, flaming wings beating softly in the wind, and landed beside Du Shiye, who knelt near the unconscious form of Kael.“Take him to the ship,” Oasis said, but his voice had changed. It no longer carried the cold indifference that once made others uneasy—it was calmer, warmer. To Shiye, it felt unexpectedly human, inviting even, as though the terrifying force who had decimated Barnabus was gone, replaced by a more approachable figure.Shiye blinked once, then nodded, hoisting Kael with effort and turning toward the ship
Chapter 225: Scorching Revenge.
Oasis’s aura shimmered like a beacon beneath the moonlight, radiating waves of ethereal heat and power. The silver glow of the moon should have cast long, tranquil shadows, but instead, it bent around him—warped by the pressure exuding from his body. The soft sand trembled at his feet, and the surrounding mist danced violently as if retreating in fear. His azure eyes, glowing with fierce determination, reflected the cyan inferno within him. The wind stilled. The world held its breath.Barnabus, towering and broad like a mountain of muscle, opened his mouth wide in defiance. “Heavenly Dem—”**Thud!!!**Before he could finish, Oasis vanished from view—then appeared in front of his face. His fist, packed with aura might, smashed directly into Barnabus's cheekbone with a dull, bone-crunching impact that echoed across the beach. The massive man was launched backward like a cannonball, but Oasis caught his leg mid-air—his slender fingers burning into the flesh like molten steel.A s
Chapter 223: Tale of bitter memories.
"It finally subsided… well done, Venak," Oasis thought, few meters away, yet locked in a brutal clash of wills. His cyan aura shimmered intensely as he caught Barnabus’s massive bludgeon with both bare hands, stopping it mid-swing. Sparks scattered from the impact, the force creating a small crater beneath his boots.Barnabus staggered back a step, breathing heavily, blood oozing from his cracked lips and missing teeth.Oasis spun back.Barnabus spat thick red saliva to the side. “It seems Delva has fallen…” he muttered, and then barked out, voice gritty, “You’ve got a steady pack, boy. My lifelong comrades… reduced to corpses.”He grinned wide, a twisted, broken thing. “You won’t have an easy death, brat.”Oasis’s eyes narrowed. The temperature around him subtly rose.His aura flickering like flames , alive.“I don’t even know you,” Barnabus continued, shifting slightly and adjusting the front of his trousers without shame. “And you don’t look like anyone I’ve killed—or fucked
Chapter 222: Crimson Phantom blade- Venak Zephyrine.
Lub-Dub!!! Lub-Dub!!! Lub-Dub!!!Each thud of heartbeat thundered across the desolate battlefield like war drums echoing from the underworld."Crimson Phantom Veil: Bloodmist Rebirth," Venak whispered.And then—in a heartbeat—the air shifted.WHOOMPH.Crimson mist erupted outward like a living wave, devouring the surroundings in a sea of red. The ground hissed, reacting to the corrosive presence. The mist pulsed in rhythm with Venak’s heartbeat, thickening and swirling in waves that sent eerie echoes through the field. Each beat sounded like it came from every direction, an oppressive thrum that sank into the bones of all who heard it.A low murmur passed through the watching demons in delva's head. Even Delva, seasoned and twisted by countless battles, hesitated as an demonic instinct screamed danger."That smell… scorched blood and embers," one demon whispered, eyes wide."No… something's wrong… that mist—it's alive," another muttered, voice trembling.Suddenly, the blade lo
Chapter 221: Phantom Blade-Venak Zephyrine.
The moon hung low over the small, craggy island, its pale light reflecting off black water and thick mist that drifted like restless spirits. The land was uneven—sharp rocks jutting from sand and earth, skeletal trees clawing at the sky, and the distant rumble of waves crashing into jagged cliffs.Amidst this eerie setting, two figures faced each other—one shrouded in ghostly mist, the other cloaked in the stench of blood and malevolence.“Kid,” the bandit spat, pulling a bloodstained sleeve from his belt and tying it tightly around his forehead like a warband, “you’ve pushed your luck. What impact do you think you have here? You just separated yourself from the others... just to be slaughtered.”He stood some distance away from the rest of the scuffle, facing Venak Zephyrine across the ashen clearing. His’s scarred face twisted into a smirk, his yellowed teeth glinting like a predator savoring the kill. Around them, fog curled in closer, thickening the air with tension.Venak exha
Chapter 220: Meng Mystic Arts: Lotus Bloom of Endless Mirrors.
The runes engraved on Venak, Lianhua, Kael, and Rennet shimmered brilliantly as the venomous orange mist—deadly to almost all forms of life—was repelled from their skin like oil from a lotus leaf. The mystical sigils pulsed with defensive energy, their bodies untouched by the corrosive haze that devoured flesh and bone just moments earlier.Venak's expression remained still, but his eyes flicked to Shiye in acknowledgment. “He is truly a child from the Du family,” Venak thought, pivoting on his heel as he moved to secure the right flank, cloak trailing behind him with speed and purpose.Kael stepped to the left flank, cracking his knuckles. “It’s been a while since I saw Shiye fight… and his poison art has reached this point?” Kael mused, eyes narrowing. “He really has been working hard.”But even with thirty enemies decimated, more came pushing through the dispersing mist.“Ravenblood Shadow Arts: Murder of Echoes!” Rennet cried, her vermilion aura exploding around her as she cro
Chapter 219: Moonlit Bloom: Embrace of Eternal Rest!.
Later…The orange sun dipped beneath the horizon, casting long streaks of crimson and violet across the ocean sky. The ship cut across darkening waves with a steady hum, the sails catching the cold wind that swept in from the eastern waters. Standing at the prow of the ship, Oasis and the five others faced forward, their silhouettes still against the roaring sea breeze. A stormy gray hue cloaked the clouds above, and the air had a bite of salt and tension—as if the ocean held its breath.Beyond the thinning mist, an island came into view—its jagged cliffs were framed in shadow, and black trees stretched like skeletal fingers toward the sky. Something about the place radiated malevolence.Suddenly, Oasis’s aura began to pulse. First subtle, with flickering hues dancing like fireflies, then fierce—waves of cyan light shimmered around him as embers ignited midair, flashing like the breath of a dormant phoenix awakening. His smirk deepened, and heat began to radiate from his body in
Chapter 218: Meal and Strategy.
The morning greeted the ship with a sullen sky, thick with steel-colored clouds rolling above the calm ocean. A steady breeze rippled across the waves, adding a bite of cold to the air. The ocean seemed subdued under the gray light, with no sun piercing through the heavy clouds. Gulls wheeled quietly overhead, their cries muffled by the wind. A dense mist clung low to the waters, veiling the horizon in mystery, while the wooden hull of the ship creaked faintly beneath the rhythmic lapping of waves.Inside the ship’s main cabin, the warmth of a hearth and the aroma of hot broth offered some comfort against the morning chill. Oasis and his five companions sat around a circular wooden table, steam rising from clay bowls filled with spiced fish stew, roasted yams, and preserved fruits.The food had been prepared by the dedicated kitchen crew assigned by Lady Sythra—disciples and handmaids trained not just in service but also in light cultivation, skilled in sustaining those on long v
