After a long while, once the dust had settled, Li Zhisheng and I finally managed to stand up. Looking up, we were confronted by two towering legs made of flesh, resembling skyscrapers.
The stench was overwhelming due to our proximity. As I surveyed the surroundings again, it was clear that this was no longer a train station; only endless blood and dismembered body parts remained, just like when I first entered Onizuka.
“Have I returned? Is this Onizuka?!” I exclaimed in surprise.
Li Zhisheng stood beside me, pulling me back a few steps as he gazed up at the giant made of flesh. “I’m not sure if this is Onizuka, but all the power of Soul Burial within me has been completely absorbed, and that strange sensation has vanished. It seems something absorbed Soul Burial and then burst forth from within me.”
Before I could respond, a loud crash echoed from beneath the giant's feet as it began to lean back, toppling toward us.
Realizing the danger, Li Zhisheng and I took off running. The flesh-and-blood giant did not fall completely; it quickly slid one foot behind it to brace its massive body and roared, extending four arms to smash down toward us.
We hid not far away, watching as this monster resembled the nearly indestructible behemoth I had encountered in Onizuka.
“Is this the true form of Xinzhu?” I wondered aloud. Although this monstrous figure was several times larger than what I had seen before, its appearance had not changed much.
Just then, a shadow leaped out from between the giant's four arms and charged straight for its face.
Seeing this, the monster swiftly retracted one arm and tightly embraced its chest, capturing the shadow in its grasp.
Upon closer inspection, I realized that the shadow was none other than the Death Apostle possessed by the Sun Warrior Leader. He was firmly held by the monster's arm and could not move at all, yet there was no sign of fear on his face; instead, he appeared quite relaxed.
“Are you still going to resist? Look closely; I am not your enemy. I am your master!” roared the Sun Warrior Leader suddenly. In an instant, he broke free from the constraining arm and a vague figure appeared behind him.
This figure was gray and floated like a ghost behind the Death Apostle. The monster paused for a moment before suddenly kneeling with a loud thud on the ground, bowing before the hovering Death Apostle.
“How can this be?! The leader of Yang Master is the master of Xinzhu?!” My eyes widened in shock as I watched the Death Apostle slowly descend from above.
“Then…” Li Zhisheng also looked astonished. After pondering for a moment, he said, “The leader of Yang Master is the creator of this Onizuka?! He created this Onizuka? But why…”
"Why did he create this Onizuka only to take it back?" I asked. "I want to know why..."
"Don't understand?" The distant Death Apostle approached us, saying, "You don't need to understand now, but there will come a time when you will. For now, I want to thank you for helping me find Xinzhu. As for the reward..."
At this point, Death Apostle suddenly appeared beside me. I was completely immobilized, unable to even control my fingers.
"The reward is that I won't kill you for the time being, but you better behave and not get into trouble again... Otherwise..." With that, Death Apostle swiftly turned and struck the Flesh Monster lying on the ground with a palm.
In an instant, a fierce wind howled as the towering monster was shattered by the blow, leaving only a massive head crashing to the ground.
"What do you want?!" I struggled to move my lips, managing to produce some sound.
"What do I want? You're just a puppet; what right do you have to ask me what I want... Just stay alive; it's not your time yet..."
After saying that, Death Apostle moved next to the monster's head and suddenly plunged a hand into the blood-soaked giant skull without warning.
Immediately, I felt the entire space begin to tremble. Accompanied by sharp cracking sounds, cracks like shattered glass appeared around us.
"He’s absorbing this space! I can feel it; the power of Onizuka is gradually fading!" Li Zhisheng said nervously.
But even knowing he was absorbing Onizuka, we were powerless to stop him. Even if Li Zhisheng and I risked our lives to fight him and prevent his absorption, we wouldn't be able to harm him in the slightest. Moreover, since the body belonged to Death Apostle, injuring him would inevitably hurt us as well.
Realizing this, although I felt unwilling, there was nothing I could do but watch helplessly as he absorbed Onizuka's power bit by bit.
Moments later, with a deafening cracking sound, the space that had once been composed of flesh and blood vanished entirely. Not far away, Bus Driver poked his head out of the driver's seat and shouted at Li Zhisheng and me, "Are you getting on or not? If you don’t hurry up, I'm driving off!"
Hearing this, Li Zhisheng and I exchanged glances. Thinking that Hu Fang might still be on the bus, we decided to check on her safety. However, at that moment, Death Apostle standing near the bus revealed a sinister smile at us. It seemed he intended to take Death Apostle with him as leverage against us in the future.
Realizing this was bad, I cursed inwardly and wanted to stop him. But since we were some distance away and neither Li Zhisheng nor I could use Soul Burial or Void Spirit powers, we couldn't reach him before he left.
I was feeling anxious when, in a daze, I saw a slender, snow-white arm reaching out from behind the Death Apostle not far away. In that hand was a pitch-black dagger, its blade aimed at the Death Apostle's neck.
I froze, my mind racing with a thought: "Could this person be Hu Fang?!"
As I pondered this, the Sun Warrior Leader, who was controlling the Death Apostle's body, also seemed taken aback. He furrowed his brow and asked, "Who are you?!"
At his words, Hu Fang's delicate face slowly emerged from beside the Death Apostle. She leaned in close to the Death Apostle's ear and whispered a few words before tightening her grip on the black dagger against his neck.
"Hu Fang! What are you doing?!" I shouted.
At that moment, the bus driver also sensed something was off. He poked his head out and, seeing Hu Fang with the knife, nervously said, "Hey, young lady! Don't be impulsive! Let's talk this over. I guess this is a relationship issue... If it really can't work out, just break up. It's not a big deal; you can find someone else..."
Hearing the bus driver's words, both Li Zhisheng and I couldn't help but laugh despite the tension in the air dissipating instantly. However, Hu Fang's expression remained serious as she shouted back at the driver, "Shut up..."
