Noah could only stand there in silence as Ah Shi walked towards the portal herself without paying attention to the chains.
The closer she got to the portal, the chains loosened their hold over her. Upon reaching the edge of the portal, she looked over her shoulder and mouthed 'goodbye' to Noah as the portal swallowed her body.
Woosh!
The surroundings returned to normal as Noah's eyes reverted back to their original state; the faded colors started to come back into sight.
But he silently stood in his spot, staring at the spot Ah Shi disappeared.
Xin Yan saw him suddenly going silent after he showed so many emotions and walked towards him.
She did not say anything and silently enveloped his hands in hers. Slowly she pulled him into a hug, and Noah allowed himself to be pulled.
After a moment, he separated and whispered, "We have to end whoever is behind all of this."
