I'm kind of confused because Chief and the Arbiter destroyed the Ark but how does that have anything to do with the Flood on Earth? They should still be there as a threat, right? I might be just missing something extremely obvious but please give an intelligent response.

There are no Flood on Earth. Remember the level Floodgate, when you find cortana's message? The shipmaster glasses the entire continent of Africa, to destroy every last Flood spore. There are none on Earth I don't think.

But the city wasn't blown up. Master Chief just retrieved Cortana's message and they decided to go through the portal to find a solution to stop the Flood and bring that solution back to Earth in order to save it. From my understanding, the solution was to remake Installation 04 and activate it before it's finished so that it just blows up and takes the Ark with it.
So still, what about the Flood on Earth?

The Shipmaster glassed approximately 1/2 of the continent of Africa to prevent the spread of Flood spores to the rest of Earth. Despite the losses, he saved Humanity from the Flood.

Actually, they glassed half of Africa. Then they went to look for Cortana and finish of the flood for once and for all.
