Chapter 546: Chapter 368: Seeking Help and Selling Oneself (6K)_3

The tower master with the hooked nose, seated in the second position, had two scars on his face, and his usually neatly combed brown hair now appeared disheveled, with strands of striking gray visible.

Iyu Luxi sat in the fifth seat.

Originally the seventh tower master, she was at the very end of the hierarchy, but since the onset of the calamity, two tower masters had perished. Others had taken their places, and she had been promoted to the fifth seat.

However, the young girl’s originally flawless complexion now seemed gray and defeated, her flowing silver hair also had become dry and lifeless.

Her left arm was wrapped in layers of bandages, beneath which was a strange protrusion that wriggled and struggled like a living creature.

"City of Fallen Stars has refused our plea for help... cough cough."

The hoarse voice came from the old crone sitting in the chief seat; the faint glimmer of hope in the tower masters’ eyes quickly dimmed.

Second Tower Master Bernie asked, "What if we offer more in return?"

The old crone shook her head still.

"The City of Fallen Stars responded that their power is also limited, unable to cover too much."

"What about the Blazefire Commerce Guild then? The Blazefire Commerce Guild is also a superpower with two Mythical entities, we might as well seek help from them!" another tower master said.

But before the words were fully spoken, they were rejected by another voice.

"The Blazefire Commerce Guild faces worse calamities than the City of Fallen Stars. Plus, they’re too short on elites to spare any to support us, regardless of the price we’re willing to pay."

"Wait, what about Blue Star? If we can persuade the powerful ones from Blue Star to take action."

"That’s impossible too, Blue Star is not within the reach of the calamity, but their situation is hardly better than ours. Moreover, the entire Blue Star World is sealed, they have no way to step into the Ghastly Realm; otherwise, with the power of Blue Star, an Oasis would have sprung up in Falling Star Pit by now."

The dim tower fell silent again, a faint despair spread, just like those ruins outside which remain untouched by sunlight.

The old crone broke the silence.

"We can only rely on ourselves."

Iyu Luxi looked out the window.

Dark clouds obscured the sunshine, and the smoke and mists in her view were persistent. She clenched her fists. Perhaps it was time to attempt a breakthrough in the Six Senses.

Otherwise, considering the current state of the Oasis...

...

...

"The situation of our Oasis is very grim."

"Pressure comes not only from the Mysterious Evil calamity but also... that power."

In a rented space within Blazing Fire Mall, used by the commerce guild as its local headquarters, Princess Yun Ji of the Court of the Silent Night looked at the Strange Implement message, her brows furrowing deeply. She picked up and then set down the sword on the table, her eyes fixated on the sharp blade without speaking for a long time.

The Court of the Silent Night is far from regaining its former glory, with only a few Six Senses powerhouses remaining in the entire Oasis.

However, nearly half of their power was trapped in the Flamefire Oasis; how could she not worry about her homeland? She had tried to pass through the inter-domain lands but kept failing regardless of how many attempts she made. Forced to return without going far, she couldn’t see a glimmer of hope.

"It’s all my fault; if I hadn’t failed in my breakthrough... If only I had known, I would have given you the opportunity."

A determined-looking middle-aged man was filled with self-reproach.

He was Yun Ji’s uncle and also a Mythical seedling nurtured by the Court of the Silent Night—a veteran among the Six Senses. Unlike the young Yun Ji, who had only accumulated a few years of experience in the Six Senses phase, her uncle had a greater chance of advancement.

After the failure to transport treasures back home, Yun Ji no longer left the Flamefire Oasis, instead letting her uncle rush to her aid.

She was gambling—on the reputation of the Blazefire Commerce Guild and the safety of the mall.

She succeeded, yet she also failed.

The Pure Divine Radiance was indeed miraculous; her uncle suffered no side effects after the failed breakthrough, but a failure was still a failure. The more pressing worry was that the three Mythicals, trapped here, could only watch the Oasis suffer under the onslaught of Mysterious Evil, feeling helpless.

The situation for the Court of the Silent Night had become even more precarious up to this day.

"I’ll ask the Blazefire Commerce Guild for help; since they can rescue those refugees, maybe they could also..."

"It’s not possible, crossing the inter-domain lands carries risks far beyond those within the Great Domain."

"Hope may be slim, but how can we know what’s possible without trying! No matter the cost, if only we can help our homeland through these hard times, it will all be worth it!"

Watching Yun Ji push the door open and walk away briskly, her uncle opened his mouth but finally let out a sigh of self-reproach and helplessness.

...

Yun Ji considered herself lucky, as she encountered one of the Blazefire Commerce Guild’s Mythicals without much trouble.

But wait?

Wasn’t it supposed to be the Mythical Empress? Why was it a golden-haired... golden-haired empress?

She felt surprised, bewildered, stunned; countless thoughts flashed through her mind for several seconds before she could regain her composure. She forced herself not to overthink and then stated her request.

"... Our Court of the Silent Night can offer various treasures, as long as your esteemed self can escort us back to the Twilight Ruins Great Domain."

The stakes Yun Ji offered were so high that Citina was also taken aback.

Once the heir to North Wind Island, even her North Wind Island could not match the price that this ’small Court of the Silent Night’ was offering.

No wonder they could outbid for the final auction item.

There must be significant secrets within this Oasis of the Court of the Silent Night. However, Citina had no desire to uncover these secrets; she was merely contemplating the request, or rather the deal, in her role as a guardian.
