70 Only Realizing When Its Too Late... 2 (1/2)

Huang Qian Yang did not return until late that night seemingly lifeless.

”Master, do not be so hasty to panic, Miss Xue might be fine” The branch manager consoled, he felt that it really was a pity, it was a once in a million years occurrence that his master is intimate with a girl but it seems that it's impossible between them.

”I shouldn't have left her to her own devices” He regretted it, he should've kept her by his side, if he catches that idiot responsible for the collapse... that person will know the meaning of a life worse than death.

What he regretted even more was that he didn't and won't ever get to express his feelings for her at this rate.

Huang Qian Yang was asked by his friend to check out the situation with the ruins since he was relatively familiar with Moonlight Continent but after he had confirmed that other powers from Sunlight Continent had made a move and was about to leave to discuss further measures, the ruins started collapsing!

He didn't bring many men with him but thankfully he was near the surface and managed to escape safe and sound with his men.

However, when he came out, he was met with various people grieving and countless heart-breaking scenarios went through his mind, 'she should be strong enough to escape' he reasoned with himself 'but what if she was several hundred miles deep in the ground', despairing thoughts went through his mind and he was on the verge of insanity.

Emotions such as panic and excess worry can really mess with/cloud a persons judgement but if it's from love, it just shows the amount of concern they have for the other party.

He still hadn't confessed to her...

Hadn't requested her hand in marriage from her parents...

Hadn't grown old with her...

He dug into the piles of rubble with his men and explored the entire area underground but couldn't find a shadow of her.

It was only after numerous persuasions did he return, a ray of hope lit in his heart by the possibility of her being back in the Auction House.

Unfortunately, to his dismay, what greeted him was a desolate room, even the girl who was with Xue Lian had disappeared.

At this moment he didn't care if that girl with Xue Lian could possibly be from the Tian Family or the persecution he would face from her clan for his failure in protecting her, only anguish and grief filled his heart.
