Haru stood alone in the resort entrance that was now empty and looked up at the sky in disbelief. He didn't have a single idea of what had happened, but there was no one in sight. It was as if they had vanished into thin air.
He then remembered how the beam of light from the cannon's had vapourised people to the point where not even ashes remained.
His heart sank as he concluded that everyone who had come to help him fight had been killed by an explosion that was similar to the blast from the canon on the colossal ships. He pictured Lao's face as he thought about what had happened.
But suddenly remembered Li Jun's words of advice. Lao had the ability to break through at any time and would automatically be sent to the middle realm. If he were caught in something that would put his life in danger, then he would undoubtedly escape with his life fully intact.
There wasn't anything that the demons could do to him that would really put his life in danger. Or so he thought, but it still didn't sit right with him.
Haru held onto the doorframe for support and wondered what he should do. He was the only life force for miles, and all of the people that had appeared in shanghai before the evacuation had vanished, leaving him there alone. He also wasn't sure what he would say to anyone who came asking questions since he didn't have the slightest clue.
He pictured both Li Jun and Lao in his mind as he stood in the pouring rain. It was the first time he had indeed been alone for the last four years of his life. There wasn't anyone to guide him anymore, and he didn't know if Lao would be able to find his way back to earth.
But as he stood in the pouring rain, he began to hear a humming sound emerge from the distance.
"What is that?" Haru thought to himself as the sound get louder before turning into a chopping sound as if something was cutting through the air over and over again.
A flash of white light shone down on him as he stood in the doorway, and that was when he realised that it was the sound of a helicopter flying overhead.
He couldn't remember the last time he saw a helicopter, but he recognised it instantly with a single glance. But as he stood looking up, a sound rang out from the sky.
"State who you are and hold your hands above your head!" A voice yelled out from a loudspeaker attached to the bottom of the helicopter, but he was in no mood for games.
Haru raised his hand to the sky and held up his middle finger as the spotlight illuminated his body.
'I don't care who you are. You're a coward for avoiding the fighting and only coming out once it has stopped. I'm not wasting my time on people like that.' He thought before turning his back and walking in the opposite direction.
"I hope Suyin is okay. I bet she must be freaking out." Haru said out loud with a smile. He was obviously sad about losing Li Jun. But he didn't want to overcrowd his mind with worrying. If he did so then, he wouldn't be able to concentrate on anything else. And in turn, it would make him lose all hope of finding Lao again.
He wanted answers, but he knew that they wouldn't come since everyone involved in the fighting had vanished, so instead, he went to check on Suyin.
He had left her in his house so that she would be safe, but he was worried about her mental state. If she had been watching the fighting, then she would have gotten a heart attack when beams of light shot down from the sky.
But as he took off into the air and looked into the distance towards his house, he noticed something very wrong.
The street that Haru's house was on was no longer there. In its place was just a line of destruction where the beam of light had ripped through the ground and torn the houses apart. He looked over at where his house stood to see that it was perfectly fine.
"Thank you, god!" Haru shouted out with relief before flying as fast as he could to go and meet back up with Suyin, but as he got closer to the house, he saw something that wasn't there when he left. And his heart sank into his stomach once again.
He felt sick.
"No…" Haru whispered as his mind went blank.
All of the air in his lungs vanished as he tried desperately to breathe, but he could tell what had happened by just looking at the house.
The roof of the house had completely collapsed in on its self, leaving behind a hole in the centre of the house. He needed to check, but he couldn't bring himself to look.
If something had happened to her, he wouldn't be able to forgive himself since he told her to stay put. But he knew that the longer he waited, the worse it would be.
'I bet she is okay. She is strong and smart. There is no way that this could bring her down. I know that she will be fine.' Haru thought as he took a deep breath.
He held his breath within his lungs as he reached out with his spiritual sense. If Suyin was okay, then he didn't want to keep her waiting. But he felt as though whatever had happened to the cultivators that fought against the demons had also happened to her Since the cannon had broken his barrier.
He moved his sense out as he scanned the area for a life force but stopped as soon as he reached the house. His eyes grew heavy, and tears began to form in them as he looked at the home with a blank expression.
"I should have known…" He said through tears that streamed down his face.
It seemed like everyone that he cared about was in the mood to leave him today. But he thought that he could cope with it, given the fact that Suyin was always there to comfort him. But he didn't pick up her life force with his spiritual sense.
