Chapter 711: The Silent Garden and Unrehearsed Panic(2).
The movement startled her slightly.She looked upward toward him with her reddened eyes, her face still wet with tears. Under the dim golden glow of the carriage lamps, his bronze skin seemed warmer somehow, while the faint cyan trims at the edges of his emerald hair shimmered subtly whenever the lantern light touched them.Then Oasis lightly brushed his fingers against her head.The touch was brief.Gentle.“I do not have anything against you, Albedo,” he said quietly. “But the cultivation path does not promise tomorrow.”His voice softened slightly.“And in order to see tomorrow, one must always be prepared. That preparation is strength. Both mental and physical.”Then he moved away from her and sat back down calmly.The moment his fingers had brushed against her head, the trembling within her body had strangely calmed. The warmth from that simple touch lingered faintly upon her skin, and somehow the anger within her dissipated almost instantly.Only now did she realize something.H
Chapter 710: The Silent Garden and Unrehearsed Panic(1).
More hours passed as Albedo continued crying, while Oasis simply sat there across from her in silence. Time and time again, his gaze would drift away from her trembling figure and move toward the scenery outside the carriage window.Night had already fully descended upon the world outside, and the darkness stretched endlessly beyond the moving convoy.The wheels of the carriage rolled steadily over the rough pathways while the rhythmic sounds of the equinores pulling the convoy echoed through the silent night like distant war drums muffled beneath the heavens.Outside, lanterns hanging from the wagons and carriages glowed with warm golden light, illuminating portions of the road ahead while the rest remained swallowed by darkness.The faint orange glow reflected against the metal fittings of the convoy, and shadows stretched and shifted every time the flames inside the lamps flickered due to the cold night breeze.Inside the carriage, however, the atmosphere remained heavy.Albedo sat

“But why… why would he just decide to protect us and become our escort? Who exactly is this person…?”Albedo’s thoughts spiraled one after another as she silently observed Oasis from across the carriage interior.“Avarice… Avarice of Lunaris…”The name echoed repeatedly within her mind, yet no matter how deeply she searched through her memories, through the countless names she had heard within noble gatherings, academies, royal events, and cultivation circles, nothing surfaced.“I’ve never heard of such a person before. Especially not someone this young… this handsome… and this terrifyingly strong.”Her gaze lingered on him longer.From appearance alone, Oasis looked far younger than her. At most, she estimated him to be around sixteen or seventeen years old. Yet the calmness in his demeanor and the overwhelming pressure hidden beneath his silence made him feel far older than his years.And then there were his features.That emerald hair streaked with cyan trims at the tips of each st
Chapter 708: Shadows Over the Horizon.
As everything had been unfolding near the blood-soaked stretch of road where the recent clash had just ended, and as Oasis’s presence still lingered like an invisible pressure across the entire valley, the world beyond the immediate chaos was not silent.A few kilometers away, perched high upon the jagged cliff edges that overlooked the winding valley roads, two figures stood in discreet observation, hidden yet fully attentive to everything below.The last rays of the sun stretched across the horizon in molten gold, painting the sky in a fading brilliance that seemed almost divine in its stillness. The light shimmered across the rocky cliff face, casting long shadows behind the two observers.They stood unmoving, silhouettes against the glowing sky, their presence subtle yet unmistakably refined.Both figures were clad in finely tailored robes of deep crimson, the fabric catching the wind with a faint ripple that betrayed their stillness.Conical hats rested upon their heads, shading
Chapter 707: Eyes of Heaven’s Horizon.
The moment Oasis felt and realized what was happening within his conscious realm, he paused.Externally, nothing about him changed at first. To anyone looking at him from the outside, he still appeared calm and unmoving within the carriage, seated in silence with his eyes closed.Yet beneath that stillness, something immense was unfolding. It was as if an ancient mechanism hidden deep within his existence had finally begun turning once more after ages of dormancy.Then suddenly—Thin strands of cyan energy began dancing around his closed eyelids.The glow first appeared faintly, like wisps of ethereal flame escaping through invisible cracks, but within seconds the energy intensified. The cyan radiance pulsed rhythmically, illuminating parts of his face and casting shifting reflections across the interior of the carriage.The energy did not behave like ordinary mana. It moved with intelligence, spiraling around his eyelids in intricate currents as if drawn toward something awakening be
Chapter 706: The Interrupted Execution(4).
By the time Oasis passed the original point of confrontation, nothing remained of the henchmen except fading ash. By the time he reached the Butler, Roben himself was gone—reduced entirely to dust scattered across the ground.The Butler’s entire body shook violently, his muscles refusing obedience as if he no longer belonged to himself.Oasis leaned slightly forward, his voice soft.“Calm.”A single word.Yet it carried something vast within it.A wave of spiritual energy expanded outward from him, gentle yet absolute. It passed through every person present like a cooling tide washing over burning nerves.Fear did not vanish instantly—but it loosened its grip. Panic unraveled. Breathing returned. The crushing weight on their souls eased as though a divine hand had briefly lifted it away.Oasis’s gaze shifted slightly toward the survivors.“What should it be… should I help you cremate your fallen comrades? Or should you not be tending to the wounded instead?”A pause.“…Actually, bury
