Chapter 148- ARC 5
The golden leaves of the pear blossom tree swayed gently in the cool autumn breeze.
They floated down slowly, as if they were tiny golden snowflakes, drifting through the air before settling on the soft ground.
The tree stood tall and strong, its branches moving slightly with the wind, shedding its leaves one by one.
A man stood beneath the tree, his long black hair cascading down his back. He remained still, his hands clasped behind him in a composed manner.
The sunlight filtering through the branches cast a warm glow on his face, highlighting the serene moment.
Everything around him was silent except for the quiet rustling of leaves brushing against the earth.
The scene felt almost like a dream, frozen in time, peaceful and untouched.
For a long time, he did not move. The leaves continued their gentle descent, creating a moment of pure stillness. It was a rare kind of peace, as if the world itself had paused just for him.
