Hearing my words, Li Zhisheng spoke in a meaningful tone, "Have you already made your decision?"
"Yes, but you don't have to come with me. This is my own decision; let me bear it alone," I replied resolutely.
"In that case, I will go with you..." Death Apostle said. "Even if I am unable to fight, I want to witness the death of Er Ye who killed Yao Long."
"Don't think about leaving me behind; I want to go too!" Hu Fang insisted, gripping my arm tightly.
Seeing their determination, I did not stop them. I turned to the silent Li Zhisheng and said, "It's fine if you don't want to go. Mo Yun is still emotionally unstable; you should stay here with her. Perhaps when she wakes up, we can learn more about their backgrounds."
After a moment, Li Zhisheng remained silent, seemingly lost in thought. I took his silence as consent and continued, "Since we've all made our decision, there's no time to waste. Let's prepare to set off immediately..."
As I turned to leave, Death Apostle called out to me, asking, "Wait a minute. Didn't we just unlock the Divine Anomalies Classic? Has your strength increased because of it?"
I paused and tried to sense the Void Spirit within me. At that moment, I felt that the Void Spirit had undergone some changes without my noticing. This change was subtle yet significant; my power had increased at least twofold and had reached a state similar to what Li Zhisheng's father once exhibited.
Moreover, this power surged within me as if the Void Spirit would awaken at my command and fight alongside me once more.
"Yes, I believe this power should be more than enough to deal with Er Ye," I said, raising my arm and clenching my fist tightly against my chest.
Just then, while looking at my clenched fist, I noticed something unusual through the tattered fabric of my clothing. I quickly lifted my shirt to check the condition of the mark on my chest.
In that instant, I realized that the Nine Star Diagram on my chest had completely vanished without a trace.
"What happened?" Death Apostle asked as he approached me.
"The mark of the Nine Star Diagram has been erased..." I replied.
"If that's the case, then you are no longer immortal..." Death Apostle pondered for a moment before saying, "The Void Spirit can help you withstand some damage, but if your injuries are too severe, no one can save you..."
"If I can take revenge, then what does it matter if I die..." I said as I lowered my shirt. "I'll go change clothes first. If you're coming too, get ready." With that, I opened the door and stepped out of the room.
Upon entering the hall, I saw Gu Kai and the mysterious woman still standing in place without moving an inch.
"Gu Kai, are you really not going to say anything to me?" I asked while walking toward the room and glancing back at him.
I initially thought that Gu Kai would not respond to me, but unexpectedly, he spoke up this time: "There's nothing good for you here."
The woman beside him chimed in, "Buddy, just do what you need to do and don't ask too many questions."
Upon hearing this, I coldly replied, "If that's the case, you can just stay here." With that, I walked into the room, found some clothes I had brought to Shidao earlier, changed, and then planned to go back and find Death Apostle so we could set off together.
As soon as I returned to the hall, I noticed that Death Apostle was already sitting there alone. However, Hu Fang and Li Zhisheng were nowhere to be seen, so I asked, "Why are you the only one here? Where are the other two?"
"Li Zhisheng seemed troubled and went back to his room. Hu Fang was preparing some food for us before leaving; she should be in the kitchen now."
Hearing about food made my stomach growl embarrassingly. Indeed, I hadn't eaten properly in a while.
Thinking about it, I found a spot next to Death Apostle and sat down with a wry smile. "I hope this isn't our last dinner."
Death Apostle looked at me and said, "Aren't you more than capable of dealing with Er Ye right now? How could it be our last dinner? Don't say such gloomy things; we will definitely come back. By then, you can cook something delicious for me with Hu Fang. It's been so long since I've had a proper meal; I really miss those days when we lived together in that rented place."
"Don't start with that! I remember you often ordered takeout back then. There were several times we cooked something and you didn't even give us face! I haven't forgotten! When we come back this time, I'm going to make sure you eat until you're stuffed!"
"Alright, it's a deal..."
While waiting for Hu Fang to arrive, Death Apostle and I chatted casually, avoiding any mention of the battles that might lie ahead. We hadn't even discussed any plans because we both understood that this time we were risking everything. Although I was confident in defeating Er Ye based on what I had seen before leaving, was that truly all of his strength? Moreover, every plan we had made in the past had been completely seen through by Sun Warrior Leader. Even the most thorough plans seemed futile; it might be better to just go all out...
In the midst of our conversation, Hu Fang's voice came from behind us. She approached with a wooden tray carrying several bowls of steaming egg noodles and placed it on the table. "Hurry up and eat! You need to be full to have the strength to fight."
"It smells so good! I'll dig in then!" With that, I took a bowl from the tray and began to wolf it down.
Seeing this, both Hu Fang and Death Apostle took their own bowls and sat down beside me. There were still three bowls left on the table; I knew these were prepared by Hu Fang for Li Zhisheng and Mo Yun...
Before long, we finished the noodles made by Hu Fang. I smiled at her and said, "It was really delicious; thank you."
Hu Fang responded with a shy yet happy smile, "It's nothing; I'm just glad you liked it."
Death Apostle couldn't help but interject as he wiped his mouth. "You two should stop showing off. If I had a torch right now, I'd burn you both!"
After listening, both Hu Fang and I exchanged a helpless smile. Although the three of us appeared relaxed, I understood that we were merely trying to find joy in our suffering.
"Alright, everyone is full. Let's set off!" After I spoke, Hu Fang and Death Apostle stood up with me and headed toward the hidden passage down the mountain.
As we walked, Death Apostle noticed Gu Kai and the mysterious woman still standing under the plaque and quietly asked, "What about those two wooden figures? Are we just going to leave them?"
"Let them be. We know what they want. Besides, it seems they have no intention of cooperating with us. As long as they don't interfere, it's fine," I replied. With that, the three of us entered the hidden passage without looking back and continued our descent.
Before long, we exited the passage and spotted the car that had brought me back earlier not far away. I thought for a moment and said to them, "The road to Yang Master isn't short; it's better to drive there and not waste our energy on the journey."
"Yeah, I was thinking the same," Death Apostle agreed.
Then, the three of us got into the car and drove toward Yang Master's location...
