"It's you..."
She severed the Divine Sense rope binding the little boy and he jumped up from the chair.
He seemed to recognize the person who came; just seeing her back gave him the courage to pick up his sword again.
Li Xingkong was not without the ability to stop her; however, after seeing the newcomer's face clearly, he was momentarily stunned.
She looks exactly like her senior.
Although she was covered by a cloak, such ordinary fabric could not possibly block the scrutiny of Divine Sense. She only revealed her eyes, and Li Xingkong recognized her clearly.
No problem, this is definitely Wan Chongshan.
However, she clearly didn't seem to recognize herself.
"Outsider, you shouldn't be here."
A short blade emerged from her slightly lowered palm, its edge gleaming white.
" Senior Wan?"
Li Xingkong tried calling out, but the woman didn't respond at all.
Clearly, she was unfamiliar with the name.
"What Senior Wan? It's too late to try and get on his good side now."
The woman moved with extraordinary speed, and a white light slashed towards Li Xingkong.
Li Xingkong reached out and stopped the attack. The woman's so-called speed was nothing special in Li Xingkong's eyes. However, her strong physical strength, coupled with such a swift attack, made her a top expert in this world.
The woman's attack was stopped by Li Xingkong. She tried to pull her weapon back, but she had clearly overestimated her strength.
The short blade in Li Xingkong's hand remained motionless, as if it had been welded shut; no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pull it back.
"Hateful..."
The woman muttered a curse under her breath.
" Lanluote, die again."
The little boy behind the woman's eyes narrowed sharply, as if his biggest secret had been exposed. However, this was a critical moment, and he couldn't ask the woman why she knew his background. He hastily made a move and committed suicide with a sword.
The moment the little boy named Lanluote committed suicide, Li Xingkong sensed something was wrong.
The whole world, like a crumpled piece of paper, began to collapse inwards. Everything around us froze—time, space, everything seemed to stand still.
Li Xingkong felt as if he were trapped in a lump of glue, making it extremely difficult to move his hands and feet.
Nevertheless, Li Xingkong immediately pulled the Guapilong to his side and used his Magic Power and Divine Sense to protect it.
The next moment, Li Xingkong felt the world regressing, time reversing, and everything returning to its original starting point.
Apart from these two guys in front of you.
The woman in red, and Lanluote behind her.
The reversal of time seemed to have no effect on either of them. However, due to the limitations of the world, they were currently in a state of slumber. As the world rapidly reversed, their figures also retraced their steps back to where they had come from.
Li Xingkong couldn't hold back any longer and intervened to stop the two of them.
The way this world rewinds is strange. Li Xingkong feels a faint sense of unreality, like trying to Scooping the Moon from the Water, but he is the fish in the water. The position of the moon changes, but it can never affect the fish itself.
As the world seemed to rewind to the moment when Li Xingkong and Guapilong descended, it returned to a state of stillness once more. Then, as if some kind of balance had been broken, the world returned to normal.
The woman in red sighed deeply. If it weren't for the endless Samsara that allowed her to see the recurring truth of this world, she might not have been able to escape from Li Xingkong's clutches this time.
There's definitely some secret about Lambert, but unfortunately, she's been researching him for a long time and still hasn't found anything.
But when she opened her eyes, she didn't see the nest she had lived in for thousands of years, but the familiar castle she had just seen. The stranger in front of her was still looking at her calmly, as if she had just been performing some kind of Joker.
She subconsciously glanced around. The castle was still there, but the people inside were gone. Only the man in front of her and his little beagle remained.
Lambert was still unconscious behind her, seemingly not yet recovered, but his wounds had disappeared, indicating that the time travel had indeed been successful.
But for some unknown reason, they were stopped by this person.
The woman's heart sank at the thought of this person's terrifying strength.
He would need to possess strength at least on par with a goddess to remain unaffected by such a rewind.
Can I really fight against someone like that?
Li Xingkong spoke first.
"Interesting. I originally thought it was really a prophet as Old Byrne said, but now it seems to be a world reboot."
How many times has this kind of restart been carried out? Do you remember?
Li Xingkong asked the question.
Regardless, the woman's striking resemblance to Wan Chongshan prevented Li Xingkong from directly attacking her; he needed to assess the situation carefully before proceeding.
"I don't remember, maybe ten times, maybe twenty times, maybe a hundred times, who knows?"
She lowered the dagger hidden in her wrist; it was pointless.
In the face of someone like Li Xingkong, her resistance was almost laughable.
"Now you can tell me your name, right?"
" Ajieta, my name is Ajieta."
The woman gave up. Since even the world rewind couldn't drive Li Xingkong, then everything was in vain.
"So I'm curious, why did you harbor such hostility towards me the moment we met?"
If it weren't for her modeling, Li Xingkong would have fought back long ago.
"Because you have influenced the future of the world!"
Ajieta said, "The world has already gone through countless cycles of Samsara. We already know exactly what will happen every day."
"Although the ending wasn't perfect, it at least brought a glimmer of hope to the world. But now, your arrival has made everything uncertain."
"Ending?"
Li Xingkong laughed. It was because he had influenced someone else's predetermined fate that they were met with hostility from the very beginning.
However, Li Xingkong still couldn't quite understand why there was any point in maintaining a predetermined ending, especially since it was repeated again and again, to the point that any slight change had to be eliminated.
It's as if the ending they've maintained is already the best possible outcome.
"You don't understand. We've been Samsara for who knows how long. This is already the best possible outcome... There's no better outcome, nothing better."
Ajieta clearly noticed Li Xingkong's disdain, and naturally she had to defend herself.
"Could you tell me about that so-called ending?"
Li Xingkong wanted to see what kind of ending would make these people so persistent, even knowing they were just pawns in the cycle of Samsara, still following the script.
