225 No Trace Left Behind

A light glowed from inside Xolai while light waves formed around him like electric sparks. Within a second, he released a lightening wave out of his fists and aimed towards the sky at the direction of Red Rock City. The moment he releases, Hue Chi hopped on top of the wave before the wave propel and shots forward like rocket shooting into s.p.a.ce.

Dao Txu arrived on scene in time to see Hue Chi takes off. His jaw dropped, face froze in awe. He recovered his shocked expression when Xolai turns around.

Saddened, "Aww.. man! I want to go too!" He smells drama and wanted to join Hue Chi but was left behind. Plus, there is no way he could ride the wave although he could go by plan but would take a few hours to reach Red Rock city.

"You can if you want to get roasted." Xolai replied as he walked past.

In Dao Txu's mind, he imagined himself similar to a roasted pig, except in human figure. He shook his head violently. "That image doesn't suit the awesome me."

The lightening waves ascended upward. When the wave hit peak, it descends downward and dissipated when the wave reached tree tops. Hue Chi allowed himself to fall down elegantly onto the ground.

PengXu watched the tracker and was dumbfounded at how fast his Lord was traveling towards his direction. He can't think of anything that could travel that fast other than Xolai's lightening but to his knowledge, only Xolai could ride the wave.

Prince Hue Chi followed the tracker to PengXu who is waiting patiently on the parking lot next to the gate.

PengXu shook his head to indicate he has no luck in finding her.

The sun is starting to go down and PengXu can only suspects that she left using her technique. But Hue Chi knew they can't pick her phone signal. If she had left this place, they would still track her even if she went back to the city, so there has to be something odd going on here as the last time they were able to track her was at this area.

"I'll sweep through the area." An invisible barrier disperses from his feet like a ripple effect and covered almost the entire city. After covering a large area, he can't sense her at all. It was as she no longer existed in the first place. There is no trace anywhere, not even the residual energies. What is going on here? His face becomes icier than glaciers, the airs colder than the deepest part of the snowy mountains. His mind almost went into a blank state, losing all of his sense of reasoning. Images of the many times when she disappeared flooded his mind making his heart clenched violently. Hue Chi staggered, unable to stand straight, almost losing balance.

"My Lord!" PengXu felt scared. He has not seen the Lord in bad health before and can't allow anything to happen on his watch.

After calming down his emotions and rea.s.sessing the area again, Hue Chi sensed a slight peculiarity at the mountains above the waterfall. He calmed down enough to head towards that direction at full speed.

PengXu follows behind but put a distance as his job is to always stay nearby or in disguised. He also sensed there is something oddly wrong with Lord Hue Chi, fear and angers all mixed together.

On the way to the waterfall, Hue Chi was rus.h.i.+ng in hope to beat the sun before the sun falls behind the horizon. Then, Yu Sha appeared coming down the trail.

Seeing her figure in sight, melted away all the emotions that rotated violently inside him. What is he to do if she disappeared just like that? He has not amended all the things in the past. A big relief left his body while he stares at her, thank you for coming back, thank you for being okay. I can't believe you're back? I thought I lost you again.

The sun finally hit the horizon, a warm glow of light illuminated the world underneath, enough to see the path and people.

Yu Sha saw Hue Chi's pale gaze looking at her. She furrowed her brows, what's he doing here? Do we like the same places? Why is he here looking at me oddly? What's with the relief look on his face? Is he looking at me? She paused to look around and behind in case he is looking at someone else other than her but there was no one.

Then she remembers, didn't he told her not to see him anymore? Somehow, she still feels bothered by that sentence so she proceeded to walk down towards him.

Hue Chi was still reeling in the feeling of seeing her coming back, like an idiot falling in love at first sight and having his feeling reciprocated.

But Yu Sha ignored and walked right past him.

He reached to grab her hand when she pays him no attention.

Startled, she looked at she frowned and yanked her hand off. She didn't say a word and continues walking down. He turns around following her and grabbed her hand again afraid she would turn to sands escaping his hand.

Angry, she glares, what is his problem now? "Tsch… What do you want?"
