Li Pin summoned the Flowing Light Boat and tore through the air, departing.

It was only quite some time after he had left the city that Skyfire Race members dared to poke their heads out.

One by one, they stared in panic toward the ruins of the Tower of the Flame Demon, their eyes filled with fear.

"What happened?"
