...Minutes earlier...

Though the blue beast wasn't some speed demon and was moving at a speed that Seth could easily leave behind, Seth had no problems with it. 

For the several hours they had been flying, he stayed on the beast's head and went about with meditation, immersing himself in the abilities he had gotten from his journey to Ashad.

While they travelled, Jane eventually slept, but it seemed her nerves were still tight as she woke up shortly after and a while later continued cultivating, seeking to fully heal herself and replenish her energy. 

As for Gudzil, the man didn't have a lot on his mind, so he calmly went back to cultivating, holding qi stones in hand and slowly absorbing their energy.

The sky was peaceful, the warm sun rays were out, and the air was still chill. 

Seth enjoyed the peace and expected his journey throughout to be equally peaceful. 

However, several minutes later, Seth opened his right eye, a genuinely confused look on his face, something that hadn't happened in a while.

For some reason, out of nowhere, a nagging feeling had suddenly appeared in his mind, and though it had been so weak that he easily ignored it minutes ago, at the moment, it was almost feeling like a heavy hammer nudging his heart.

"Ahh, damn it, what now? Hope this isn't another issue with my bloodline."

This sudden feeling had Seth brainstorming the possible reasons for it. But then, as several more minutes passed, Seth realized that the feeling had begun compelling him to move in a particular direction. 

with only one eye still open, Seth looked to his right, staring at the clear sky and vast forestry in that direction and with his forehead creased, he immediately sent out his soulsense.

Like a charging lightning beast, Seth's soulsense went speeding and covering the distance around him for kilometres in a flash, his companions none the wiser.

"Tch, well, she's a goner," Seth thought internally with a snort.

Having investigated and figured out the reason for his annoying feeling, Seth went back to his meditation. 

Not that Seth had anything against Mira, but the woman was actually a little bit far from his current position. 

That meant that if Seth wanted to reach her, he would have to take a detour and while he could do that, he just didn't feel like doing it. Though this was a reason for his decision, it wasn't the main one.

"I have no idea what I truly did that day I bit her. I don't need someone like her running around and making me feel emotions that are not my own. If she just dies, that will solve the problem."

Considering Mira as some weakness his careless and lustful self had created, Seth decided to abandon her to her fate. Well, that was the plan.

Ignoring the woman being ganged up on, Seth suppressed the nagging feeling in his head but as time went on, it got worse. Seth's entire being began feeling compelled to move toward the trapped Mira, and then screech-like cries began popping into his head. 

At the moment, everything about Seth, other than his consciousness, demanded that he go and save Mira and as Seth fought to resist this impulse, his aura went bizarre.

So far since his return to earth, Seth had only been implementing either his soulsense or darkness to take care of his enemies, but as he battled himself, Seth's qi went spilling out uncontrollably into the world. 

Just from Seth's qi spilling out and going into the world uncontrollably, a small storm was being created, and while this happened, three beings found themselves, unfortunately, bearing the brunt of this calamity.

Immediately, Seth's qi came out, the blue beast immediately began screaming, shouting in fear and While Gudzil and Jane heard its warning, there was nothing they could do about it as they themselves were trembling all over, using their entire focus to keep their qi from going chaotic and trying to escape their bodies, a situation which would only end in their explosion.

As the stronger cultivator, Jane fared better, able to pay attention to the woman she captured and cover her in her qi. And while she did this, she looked at Gudzil, who already had blood running down his nose and ears.

"If this continues, we'll die," Jane thought, turning to Seth. But she could only look at him for a second as just the sight of him stung her eyes.

"What level of cultivation is he? I can't even open my mouth to talk. I'm barely breathing. Is this how I die?" Jane lamented.

While Gudzil and Amelia found themselves getting closer to death's doorsteps, Seth went about waging a war of willpower against his body, or more like hiding from it. 

With nearly his entire being wanting a particular desire, winning was impossible for him, and all he could do was avoid, turtle up, and wait until Mira died or he got out of whatever range made it possible for him to sense her.

While Seth was busy enduring and planning how to weather out the storm, a voice went booming in his head.

"What are you doing?"

"..."

"Seth, answer me," the cheery voice of Alexia resounded once more.

"Ehhh, just playing around. I'm not in any danger," Seth said honestly.

"I know. I just felt I should remind you that your 'play,' as you put it, is about to see the death of those people you picked up, and oh, you're also falling, soon to crash."

"ehh, Ahh, damn it," Seth thought and Just as the thought to give up his little battle with his body filled his head, and he decided to save Mira, his body immediately returned to calm.

Silently opening his eyes, Seth found himself falling to the ground, the blue beast below him unconscious, a situation which Gudzil was also in with the only person awake being Jane, who was staring at him with a pleading ashen face.

Not wasting a second, Seth's soulsense swept out, and immediately everyone found themselves floating in the air.

"Sorry about that," Seth said, a bashful smile on his face.
