The next morning, Gu Ding knocked on Beika's door at the agreed time.

When Beika opened the door, Gu Ding could see that his face was still full of reluctance, and his mood was not much better than the day before.

"We're ready to go."

"I understand. You can go now. I'll meet you at the port later." Beika nodded, her expression still indifferent.

Seeing the other person's state, Gu Ding hesitated for a moment before finally speaking, "Beika, I know you don't really want to leave with us. I don't know what method Diliya used, but if you need, I can talk to her. As for Hake's matter, we'll think of another way."

Beika stared at Gu Ding for a long time. He could detect whether someone was lying by observing the subtle magnetic field fluctuations generated by bioelectricity, and clearly, he found that Gu Ding's words were not insincere platitudes.

"Thank you, but no need. I already said I would leave with you and help you heal your companion. Besides, if you miss me, you might not be able to find another suitable healer in time."

Beika's words reassured Gu Ding somewhat, as Beika's current state had made him worry about whether he would do his best to treat Hake. After all, he hadn't wanted to help, and had only reluctantly agreed under pressure from Diliya. And when someone is forced, they may not do their best.

"Okay, I'll be going then." Gu Ding said, taking a few steps out. He reached the door of the room next to Beika's, and before he could knock, the door opened automatically.

"Miss Diliya, we're leaving now."

Diliya smiled faintly and nodded to Gu Ding. "I wish you a safe journey. And I hope your companion will wake up soon."

"Thanks!"

After saying goodbye to Diliya, Gu Ding quickly left the hotel where the two were staying.

Beika's door remained open. He stood at the doorway of his room, lost in thought, and never crossed the threshold into the hallway.

But as a few footsteps approached, Diliya reached his doorway.

"Beika, I thought about it all night yesterday. I think you're right. The Bolo Domain is gone now. Even if you rebuild a new territory and pass on the legacy, it will still not be the Bolo Domain."

"Senior sister..." Beika was taken aback, thinking that Diliya was about to retract her order.

"Do you remember? When you were very young, you told your senior sister that you wanted to become a musician. Now that Bolo Domain is gone, the most important thing you should do is pursue your dream. Take this opportunity to leave with Gu Ding and the others and live the life you want."

Beika knew that Diliya's words meant she was ready to give up completely. He looked down silently at his toes, while scenes from the past kept flashing through his mind.

When he was five years old, he met Diliya, who was the same age as him, for the first time and was beaten black and blue.

When I was seven, I skipped school with Diliya, and we ended up being punished by sweeping the steps of the mountain gate for a month.

When I was eleven, I secretly sneaked into the deep mountains to steal bird eggs. I accidentally stole the egg of a God-rank Tricolor Phoenix Tail Bird, which attracted the attention of a demonic beast that chased me relentlessly, even reaching human settlements and nearly causing a major disaster. If it weren't for Diliya pleading for me, I would have been expelled from my sect back then...

When I was thirteen years old...

"Senior sister, I'm an adult now. I know what I should and shouldn't do. Don't worry, one day I will reach the Lord-level, create my own territory, and pass on the sect." Beika had finally come to her senses.

"Beika ..."

"Senior sister, please take good care of yourself. I hope that when that day comes, you will be there to see it with your own eyes..."

After saying goodbye to Diliya, Beika headed towards the port.

At the port, Gu Ding and his group were already waiting.

"Sorry I'm a little late. I was talking to my senior sister for a bit longer and didn't really notice the time." When Becca saw Gu Ding, Beika emotions had completely stabilized, and even Gu Ding and the others could tell.

"It's alright, let's get on the boat!" Gu Ding then led him onto the boat.

After entering the spaceship, before Gu Ding could say anything, Beika walked straight to the living room window. Looking in that direction, she could see the Tarla Star, which the spaceship had just left.

Gu Ding had originally intended to explain the spaceship's internal structure to Beika, tactfully walked away, knowing that Beika might need some time alone.

Watching the planet recede into the distance outside the window, Beika stared intently until Tarla Star completely vanished into a wisp of starlight. Only then did he murmur softly, "Goodbye, Senior Sister, live well..."

Beika's low spirits lasted only a day; he was in much better spirits the next day, greeting everyone proactively early in the morning. Upon seeing Gu Ding, he even brought up Hake's problem.

"Gu Ding, I am ready and can begin the rescue operation for Hake at any time."

Gu Ding was holding Mirka, was so happy that he almost dropped the cup.

"Okay, let's get ready now." Gu Ding gulped down the Mirka in his mouth, and disappeared from the spot in a few gulps.

The next instant, he was already in Hake's room, and then pushed Hake's hospital bed into the pre-prepared empty room.

"Sea Emperor, bring Beika over." Although Sea Emperor wasn't with Gu Ding, he was monitoring everything that was happening inside the spaceship. He could sense even if Gu Ding was just talking to thin air.

After receiving Gu Ding's message, Sea Emperor quickly appeared beside Beika.

"Gu Ding needs to talk to you. Come with me."

At this moment, Sea Emperor was only in the form of a five or six-year-old boy. Although Beika had seen him before, he hadn't paid much attention to him. But now, when Sea Emperor appeared so close to him, he realized that there were no fluctuations on Sea Emperor that he could detect, which greatly surprised him.

With a hint of surprise, Beika followed the Sea Emperor to the room designated by Gu Ding.

Gu Ding closed the door and then said to the Sea Emperor, "Tell Lily and the others not to bother us for the time being."

"Understood." The Sea Emperor immediately informed Liliath and her group.

"Let's get started now. How exactly do we do it?" Gu Ding turned to look at Beika.

Beika looked at the Sea Emperor with some confusion, "Is this little kid going to stay too?"

"That's right. My job is to monitor the entire treatment process and ensure it goes smoothly." Sea Emperor said, looking at Beika with an expression that seemed to say, "Do you have any more questions?"

"Sea Emperor is a member of our team. He's a bit special. We'll just do our own thing; he won't affect us." Gu Ding nodded to Beika.

"Alright then..." Beika finally realized that this seemingly unremarkable little boy also possessed unique skills within the team, and suddenly became somewhat interested in Gu Ding and his group. (To be continued~^~)
