“Brother, I can finally make amends for my mistakes.”
The myriad worlds trembled.
The sea of realms surged.
After an unknown number of years, a chilling figure radiating killing intent that pierced through ancient and modern times, with eyes that could suppress myriad realms, stepped out of the immortal realm, carrying a blood-stained wooden sword.
With a stride, she set foot upon the River of Time.
Under her terrifying pressure, the waters representing the past, present, and future all boiled, splashing with torrential waves, each droplet weighing as much as a small world.
“Hum——”
Xu Moli gently raised her delicate hand, and time reversed in her grasp, rewriting the flow of years.
How many years had passed since her brother's death?
Xu Moli could hardly remember.
All she knew was that from that day onward, she had lost all hope and support, her only driving force being the obsession to revive her brother, pushing her body to ceaselessly cultivate.
Finally.
She broke through to the realm above the Immortal Emperor, achieving an unprecedented supremacy, capable of ignoring causality and reversing time. With this power beyond the Immortal Emperor, she was sure to save her brother from the past!
Thinking of this, the ageless beauty could not help but reveal a faint smile.
“Rumble! Rumble!”
The River of Time was cut off.
Her white as jade hand reached upstream, accurately pinching a small world carrying a familiar aura from the endless droplets, which was the small world Xu Moli had ascended from.
The past was extracted, transforming into tangible scenes.
After a long separation, Xu Moli once again saw that familiar face, witnessing her brother's gentle and caring demeanor as he raised the young her.
She also saw the year she turned seventeen, when her brother sacrificed his own life to forcibly save the girl.
“Brother.”
A soft murmur carried countless emotions.
The River of Time trembled, and the supreme power was exerted at her fingertips, gently reaching out to seize her brother from the past, wanting to forcibly bring him to her side.
But——
With a crisp sound of a bubble bursting, the cold woman's fingers passed straight through Xu Xi, unable to affect him in the slightest, no matter how much strength she exerted, she could not touch him at all.
“No, this can't be.”
Xu Moli panicked.
She tried to retrieve other things from the past.
Everything went smoothly, her power that surpassed myriad worlds and realms made the constraints of time powerless to stop her, yet she could not touch her brother.
Again and again!
Again and again!!
Again and again!!!
No matter how many times she tried, she could only see Xu Xi living in the past, but could never truly touch him.
Like the moon in water and the flower in a mirror.
Although visible, they were separated by an infinite distance, making it impossible to touch.
“Why... why has it come to this...”
“It shouldn't be like this...”
“Why won't you give me a chance to make amends...”
Finally, Xu Moli gave up her countless attempts, deeply realizing that she would never be able to save her beloved brother.
Looking at the memories of the two of them in the River of Time.
She cried for the first time in a long while.
It was a silent cry.
Very quiet, very sad.
No sounds were made, only tears continuously fell, blending into the River of Time, but the sorrow-filled teardrops, even when washed by time, did not diminish in the slightest.
“...Brother, I'm sorry.”
In the end, the girl who had surpassed countless beings, reaching an impossible realm.
Curled herself into a small ball.
Letting her consciousness sink, falling into endless darkness, to escape the despair that could not be rewritten.
Opening her eyes, the darkness was pierced by warm sunlight.
Unlike before, when she woke up in the cultivation world, this time Xu Xi woke up in a room in the real world.
“It feels like I had a very long dream.”
The sun was at its peak, still daytime.
Shining in from the window.
Illuminating everything in the room.
This wasn't because Xu Xi slept too little, but because he had slept for over ten hours, reaching the morning of the next day.
After all, the things he did before the simulation ended completely surpassed human limits, putting an immense burden on his spirit.
“I wonder how Moli is doing after my death.”
“With her talent, I shouldn't have to worry, but thinking about never seeing her again, I feel a bit melancholic.”
Xu Xi sat up in bed, catching the sunlight in his palm, warm and comfortable, and sighed.
He was actually a bit of a recluse.
Especially after his legs were crippled, he rarely interacted with outsiders.
This simulation experience allowed him to enjoy a normal life for seventeen years. Honestly, Xu Xi felt truly satisfied.
However.
Thinking about the girl's despairing, tear-stricken face when the simulation ended.
Xu Xi couldn't help but sigh, feeling uneasy.
“Simulated life, huh...”
“It really is as the simulator said, an experience like a second life, just not quite the beautiful life it initially promised.”
Xu Xi clicked his tongue lightly.
Then began checking the system notifications that he hadn't had the chance to look at due to being too tired and sleepy after the simulation ended.

Xu Xi: ?
The first three achievements are quite normal, why did the last one suddenly change the tone?
“Judging from the description, the 'Him' refers to Moli, right?” Xu Xi pondered, “It seems that after my death, Moli became someone extraordinary.”
His concern for the girl lessened slightly.
Xu Xi continued checking the simulator panel.

ions, keeping it grounded and realistic】 After quitting his job, office worker Su Yang accidentally binds with the "Enjoy Life System." As the name suggests, simply by indulging in life's pleasures, he can earn random rewards from the system—no need to spend money on beautiful women or grovel before anyone. Just enjoy, and the money follows, making it all about effortless fun. The system comes with a scanning feature, allowing him to establish a favorability bond with women rated 85 points or above. Every 20-point increase in favorability unlocks additional rewards. After suffering through over twenty years of hardship, Su Yang trembles with excitement, his dull eyes suddenly gleaming with newfound hope. "Enjoy life? How hard could that be?"
ts me of treason?" "Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence." "Wait—I have half a million soldiers, and you want me to go back to the capital to 'build influence'?" "Host, you are currently the Northern Garrison General, loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty." "Of course I am loyal to Great Xia! Absolutely loyal!" "But you keep referring to yourself as 'We'..." "Never mind the details! Summon all the regional commanders and military officers! We suspect treacherous officials are manipulating the court! They shall march with Us to the capital and purge the corrupt!" "......"
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become.

] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
