However, Tulip waited for a moment, expecting pain that did not come. Confused, she opened her eyes, only to find that Lyon had already vanished without a trace.
What she saw was a landscape of ruins, the Blood Moon still overhead, silently declaring that the war was far from over.
What happened?
Where is everyone?
Had she been spared?
"Tulip!"
It was then that the Rainbow Bridge descended, and Mei Xiang appeared beside her, "Tulip, are you all right?"
"You! How did you come back?"
"Run!"
Tulip exclaimed anxiously, "I've already, already got no strength left to cover for you."
"Sorry."
Mei Xiang's apology was not for coming back, but for having abandoned Tulip and fleeing alone.
"What are you sorry for, why did you come back, why?!"
Powerless and extremely weak, Tulip felt an unprecedented level of haggardness and helplessness.
"Let's go, Tulip."
