Chapter 203 Legs Are Broken

"Are you kidding me? What do you mean 'her' or 'her'?"

"Am I not me?" Shi Li stiffened for a moment; she wasn't ready to confess to Bai Qingye.

"Fool, the difference is huge." Bai Qingye's tone was indifferent, yet it made people feel at ease.

Since things had come to this point, Bai Qingye wanted to get some things clarified.

The greatest tragedy is when a dying person leaves with regrets.

"You would never have done something like this before."

"They will basically all go against your principles."

"Although it seems unbelievable now, I still want to believe that you are two completely different people." Bai Qingye gently hugged Shi Li, murmuring his doubts.

"Actually, you don't need to be too nervous. No matter which one you are, whether it's the original her or not, haven't we started over after spending this time together?" Bai Qingye didn't force Shi Li to answer the question. It would be very awkward if he guessed wrong.

A few words from her warmed Shi Li's heart.

"I've always loved you as you are right now." Bai Qingye noticed the embarrassment in Shi Li's eyes, which further confirmed his guess.

However, some things should not be investigated too thoroughly.

It would only make Shi Li feel uncomfortable.

"How's your leg? I feel like you've been trying to move it." Shi Li silently lowered her head.

At this critical moment, she dared not give any response at all.

Especially after experiencing the loss of Joan, she was even more afraid.

I'm afraid of losing these people.

She couldn't bear to lose any of them.

She couldn't bear to lose even one person.

"No, I'm just still feeling a little unwell." Bai Qingye forced a smile. After his previous probing, he had actually confirmed one thing.

It's highly likely that his legs are ruined.

I don't know if there's any chance of recovery.

But seeing that Shi Li was almost at her limit, how could Bai Qingye say something that would only make Shi Li worry?
His appearance should be to solve Shili's problems, not to create more.

"Really?" Shi Li was a little suspicious. Looking at Bai Qingye's current state, he didn't seem to be in good condition.

"Can you stand up?"

"Let's see if we can try our luck and find Heig." Shi Li struggled to stand up from Bai Qingye's arms and reached out to take Bai Qingye's hand.

"I don't look perfectly fine either, so it's a bit difficult for me to stand up and walk now." Bai Qingye was unusually flustered, and could only try his best to hide his pain.

"How about I rest here while you walk a bit further on your own?" Fortunately, Shi Li had just told the story between him and Joan, so his suggestion didn't seem so strange.

"After all, you said it yourself, it would be more dangerous to be with you." Bai Qingye even came up with an even more high-sounding reason.

Shi Li stared blankly at Bai Qingye's expression, as if she wanted to see right through him.

"Would you choose not to walk with me because you feel it's dangerous to be with me?" Shi Li's voice was a little choked up. She seemed to have guessed that Bai Qingye was hiding something.

If Joan hadn't insisted on separating, Joan definitely wouldn't have wanted to go her separate ways.

"Can't you move your legs?!" Bai Qingye's words were completely wrong, and Shi Li didn't even need to rack her brains to think of a reason.

That would directly expose Bai Qingye's clumsy acting. This guy wouldn't choose to leave her just because of danger.

On the contrary, it is precisely because of the danger that I must stay with her all the time.

This is the kind of thing Bai Qingye would do.

Looking back on everything, Shi Li really felt that Bai Qingye was like a combination of parents.

He took care of everything, and even acted as the patriarch to mediate the undercurrent of competition among the beastmen.

He's an unbelievably good person.

Why should someone like this end up like this?
"It might just be a side effect of a more severe injury."

"Maybe once the injury heals, my leg will be able to move again." Bai Qingye was also uncertain when he said these words.

He himself studied medicine, and now he has no feeling at all in his legs. Even if he touches them or pinches them, he feels nothing.

This feeling of numbness is the most terrifying.

But for now, all we can do is say these things to comfort Shili.

"At least, I haven't been mentally controlled by them. I'm still alive and can still talk to you with a smile." Even Bai Qingye himself found this statement absurd.

After saying it, I regretted it a little. Why did I have to bring up things that could have been overlooked?

Wouldn't saying that make Shi Li feel even worse?
"Enough!! Don't say that anymore!" Shi Li was so heartbroken she almost fainted. She squatted down, trembling, and held Bai Qingye's hand tightly.

"I'll try to see if I can rewind time specifically to your own timeline."

"If possible, I can rewind to the time before your leg was injured." Shi Li's voice trembled along with her body.

She had no idea what to do with her energy reserves, let alone how much they could be restored.

"No need to try, I'm already very satisfied."

"I can still watch you leave."

"It's not worth wasting your abilities on me." Bai Qingye forcefully shook off Shi Li's hand, unwilling to let Shi Li try.

He knew the value of Shi Li's abilities, and the more he explored, the more he understood why Belon and his gang were so determined to capture Shi Li.

With such power, who wouldn't be envious?
The ability to manipulate time at will makes one virtually invincible.

No matter what damage you cause, as long as the opponent's ability is up to par, even if you're blown to pieces, you can still turn back time and take the fall for them.

That's practically cheat code!

"What do you mean by waste!"

"How can using it on you be considered a waste?" Shi Li became increasingly angry as she spoke, and insisted on grabbing Bai Qingye's hand.

"But how do you know that going back in time won't have any backlash?"

"This ability is so overpowered that it's almost divine retribution."

"Is the little bit of mental energy you've given that you can recover on your own really enough?" Bai Qingye wasn't being cowardly; he genuinely felt that something was amiss.

If this superpower is really that amazing, then the user only needs to pay such a small price, isn't that a bit too outrageous?
Everything requires a balance.

Such a power that disrupts the balance should also have a price to counteract it.

Bai Qingye was very worried that this cost would always exist, but Shi Li's special ability had not yet been used to tip the scales.

Once the scales tip, the price may be too high for Shili to afford.
