My Apocalypse: Infinite Rewinds

"Can you really bear to watch him die like this?" Yu Ruoxue, sitting by the car window, looked at the figure blocking her way and asked softly.

"But in front of her, there was nothing but air, so perhaps she was just talking to the air."

"Although I don't know what happened, are you really going to continue hiding this at such a critical moment?" Yu Ruoxue continued to nag, seemingly trying to persuade the sulking child.

"Once a person dies, no matter how many feelings you have, it's all in vain. Dust returns to dust, ashes to ashes. After death, there is nothing left!" As if remembering something, Yu Ruoxue's aura suddenly became sorrowful. Yes, when a person dies, you will suddenly find that all your resentment towards them will turn into deep regret. Humans are creatures that only learn to cherish things after they are lost.

A pure white blade suddenly appeared before Yu Ruoxue's eyes with a "buzzing" sound. The slightly trembling blade seemed to be indicating its compromise. The girl's words just now had obviously moved her.

"It seems you've agreed, so I'll leave the rest to you!" Seeing the blade finally appear, Yu Ruoxue breathed a sigh of relief and quickly reached out to grasp its hilt.

"I really can't do anything with you!" Yu Ruoxue, who was gripping the hilt of the knife, seemed to have become a different person. Her eyes were as cold as ice, and her noble and cold temperament was self-evident.

"But I also want to know his answer!" Yu Ruoxue opened the car door and looked leisurely at the straight figure in front of her, her long black hair dancing in the wind. "Perhaps I don't want to regret it again?"

"His life is not mine to take without my permission!" Yu Ruoxue shouted coldly at the Licker in front of her, her voice shining brightly in the sunlight.

"You've finally shown up?" Li Kai looked at the girl blocking his way with a complicated expression. Her icy demeanor was like that of a fairy from a cold palace, aloof and unapproachable.

"I'm waiting for the explanation you owe me!" The snow-white blade was placed horizontally in front of Yu Ruoxue. The girl said without turning her head, but her face was slightly red.

"You actually heard that?" Li Kai listened to the girl's words in disbelief. He was astonished that she had overheard his slip of the tongue.

"Hmm," Yu Ruoxue reluctantly admitted, her voice heavy with nasal congestion.

"But this guy seems a bit tough to deal with, you'd better be careful!" Looking at the arrogant girl, Li Kai finally suppressed his inner吐槽 (tu cao, meaning to complain or criticize) and kindly reminded her.

"Hmph, just trash!" Yu Ruoxue sneered, flicking her right arm, and the katana that reflected the sunlight emitted a chilling aura.

"Roar!!" The Licker roared angrily at the sudden enemy. How dare they interrupt its meal!

"Then let me play with you!" Yu Ruoxue shouted disdainfully, but her expression vaguely revealed excitement.

"Whoosh!" The Licker pushed off with its legs and disappeared from the spot in an instant. At the same time, Yu Ruoxue frowned and looked around warily.

"Your presence can't be hidden here!" After hesitating for a few seconds, Yu Ruoxue revealed a confident smile. Your location has been exposed.

"Pfft!" The rapidly flashing blade suddenly struck her side and back, and then several drops of blood suddenly appeared in the air. Just a moment ago, it was empty gas, but now it had turned into a wounded monster.

"Roar!!" The Licker howled in pain, clutching its abdomen. Its surprise attack had failed.

"I told you, it's nothing special!" Yu Ruoxue contemptuously flicked the blood droplets from her blade onto the ground, the foul-smelling blood corroding the earth and making a sizzling sound.

"The stench of decay, the aura of murderous intent—you are utterly unworthy to be an assassin!" Yu Ruoxue coldly rebuked, the straight tip of her blade already pointed at the Licker's chin.

"Uh, it sounds like I'm a complete failure!" Li Kai awkwardly wiped his cold sweat. The difference between people seems so vast!

"Whoosh!" The severely injured Licker did not back down; instead, it became even more ferocious, its long tongue, like a steel whip, shooting out towards her at lightning speed.

"Clang!" Seeing the sudden attack, Yu Ruoxue quickly placed the blade in front of her, and the two collided, producing a metallic clang.

"Roar!" Taking advantage of the moment when Yu Ruoxue was in a defensive lapse, the Licker swung its sharp claws and pierced towards her.

"Damn it!!" Yu Ruoxue, who was hastily fighting back, was immediately blasted away by the enormous force in front of her. Her chest ached, and even the hand holding the blade felt numb.

"This kind of situation is definitely going to be a disadvantage. It seems I underestimated my opponent; they're not even in the same league as before."

"Are you alright?" Li Kai asked with concern from the side.

"Not bad, cough cough!!" Yu Ruoxue felt a sweet taste in her throat, and crimson blood gushed from her mouth, its eerie color standing out starkly on the ground.

"No way, she doesn't look alright at all!" Li Kai rushed to her side and carefully examined her wounds. "Sometimes you shouldn't push yourself too hard!"

"Why are you being so nice to me?!" Yu Ruoxue looked at Li Kai, who was showing concern for her, with a pale face that evoked pity.

"Uh, how should I put it?" Li Kai awkwardly scratched his cheek. He couldn't even explain the answer himself. Was it that faint sense of dependence? No, no, it belonged to someone else. So...

"Alright, move aside!" Seeing Li Kai deep in thought, Yu Ruoxue pushed him aside. She had hoped for the desired result, but in the end, it was all for naught.

Li Kai reached out his hand but hesitated to take it, unsure of how to respond.

"Roar!!" The Licker, which had been waiting impatiently, roared and charged at Yu Ruoxue.

"Is it the same move again?" Yu Ruoxue frowned. The monster in front of her couldn't possibly be that stupid. But despite her thoughts, she didn't hesitate to bring down her knife.

"Heh," a mocking glint suddenly appeared in its eyes just as the blade was about to strike the Licker.

"Oh no, we've been tricked!" Yu Ruoxue realized the anomaly but had no time to react, and could only slash downwards with the sharp blade in her hand.

"Thud!" The sharp blade easily pierced through the Licker's back, without any apparent abnormality, only...

Just as the blade pierced her body, the sudden tail easily wrapped around the girl's waist and then swung upwards with force.

"Let me go!" Yu Ruoxue felt she couldn't breathe. She hadn't even had time to pull out the knife in her hand. Moreover, the force of the tail contracting was becoming stronger and stronger, as if it was about to crush her soft waist.

"Thump!" As if toying with it, the Licker didn't kill it directly, but threw it away with an excited shout, like a child who had found a toy.

"Hey, are you alright?" Li Kai pulled the girl on the ground into his arms and called out anxiously.

"I don't need your concern," Yu Ruoxue said reluctantly, turning her head away.

"Don't throw a tantrum here at a time like this." Li Kai kindly observed the girl's injuries, a look of heartache on his face.

"Get out of here! I don't need you!" The girl lying in Li Kai's arms struggled fiercely, her face showing deep anger and disgust, and she still had to put on such an expression.

"You'd better stop this now!!"

"Smack!" Li Kai's palm slammed heavily onto the girl's breasts, the crisp sound lingering for a long time.
