Chapter 253: Chapter 243 The Mad King of Cyart
“`
The scenery within White Bones Canyon all became hazy and mysterious, as if placed in an extraordinary and surreal world. The moist air was filled with faint mist, making everything seem light and soft, as if time itself had stopped within the white fog.
“Chris?”
Byrne searched for a long time amidst the thick white fog but failed to find anything notably out of the ordinary.
He also failed to find Chris.
Last time, it was Marzo who suddenly disappeared beside him; this time, Chris had vanished. His heart couldn’t stop pounding; he felt that the whole situation was not that simple.
After searching for a while, Byrne’s innermost thoughts were suddenly filled with the voice of Viscount Bast for some unknown reason.
[Byrne, you have wronged me…]
[It’s you who have wronged me ahhhhhh!]
“Hmm?”
Byrne furrowed his brows deeply, not spiraling into a mental collapse or emotional chaos from the appearance of a voice, but he became more vigilant indeed.
The voice of Viscount Bast appeared more frequently, yet still, he remained unmoved. Later on, he heard other deceased voices, like that of sea merchant John, Priest Azure Blue of the Sea God Cult, the voices of the siblings, and even his father’s voice.
The voice of Lucius surged through Byrne’s mind as though he was just behind him, as if Byrne only needed to turn around to see him.
[Byrne, save me.]
[I am in such pain, Byrne, why won’t you come save me?]
[Turn back, look at me, Byrne, I am your father!]
[Only you can free my soul.]
Byrne was completely indifferent.
Deep within, he was very clear that those voices of the deceased were just things to bewitch him.
[Byrne!]
[Why did you abandon me?]
[Why didn’t you come back to save me then?]
“Lucius” kept roaring behind him, but he could not be swayed.
Byrne took a deep breath and calmly responded:
“Stop speaking these useless words. I am unsure of the Viscount’s condition after death, but my father’s soul will definitely return to the glorious Lord of the Lost; how could you capture and torment him?”
The souls of the Fischer family would all return to the great Lord of the Lost; each soul would find peace, something they have always firmly believed in!
“And my father sacrificed himself willingly…”
With tearful eyes, he said, “So, how could he ever resent us for not going back to save him?”
Byrne’s gaze turned icy, his face expressionless, but the anger deep inside him was about to burst forth. This eerie valley dared to play such a “prank” using his father!
He simply wanted to destroy this place!
It was at this moment that the dense white fog began to disperse, and those voices also faded away.
Suddenly, Byrne saw Chris’s figure, as if he had been just hundreds of meters away from the start, very close to him.
The silver-haired man stood calmly on one side of the canyon, staring at the tall walls, as white as jade, completely motionless.
“What’s wrong?”
Byrne let out a sigh of relief and then walked over, reaching out to grasp Chris’s arm.
He saw that Chris’s gaze was very tranquil, and he did not speak for a long time.
Finally, Chris nodded and said:
“Tranquility.”
What did he mean?
Byrne was slightly taken aback, and for a brief moment, he couldn’t understand what Chris meant. It seemed as if he felt something about the valley; tranquility…
He paused for a moment, then quickly asked:
“Could it be that this valley is related to the Path of Tranquility’s Godly Pantheon stairway?”
Chris nodded lightly but did not continue to explain; instead, he maintained his silence.
Why would that be?
Byrne was puzzled and after a long pause, he murmured:
“A valley of bones left by some Heavenly Enlightenment Powerful expert is related to the Path of Tranquility’s Godly Pantheon stairway?”
“Perhaps, this will be Chris’s opportunity!”
