Weird Rules: I'm so handsome, they all want to seduce me.

She looked down at her unharmed shoulder, then looked up at Shen Qinghe, who had just gotten up from the ground, and a cold smile appeared on her lips.

"You had a lot of fun just now, didn't you?"

Shen Qinghe looked at her, then at the flower blade in her hand that she had never seen before, which exuded terrifying resentment. For the first time, fear appeared on her face.

"Impossible... How could you... I clearly absorbed Brother Yun Shen's power..."

"His power?" Jiang Hongyi laughed, her smile full of sarcasm. "You think you can defeat me by consuming the remnants of a hypocritical beast?"

She raised her hand, the blood-red flower blade pointing at Shen Qinghe.

"Now, it's my turn."

The words fell.

Jiang Hongyi's figure vanished in an instant!

It's not fast.

It's completely gone!

The next second, she appeared behind Shen Qinghe, her flower blade sweeping across!

Shen Qinghe screamed and turned to block, her black fingernails taking the blow head-on—

Click!

All ten of her reinforced nails broke off!

The blade continued its momentum, slashing fiercely at her chest!

"Ah—!" Shen Qinghe screamed and flew backward, a huge wound on her chest, black blood gushing out.

She had barely landed when Jiang Hongyi arrived.

This time it's the top of my head.

The flower blades transformed into countless blood-red petals, falling like a torrential rain!

Shen Qinghe tried desperately to dodge, but she couldn't escape at all. Dozens of wounds were instantly cut into her body, turning her into a bloody mess.

"Why...why did you suddenly..." Shen Qinghe screamed as she coughed up blood.

Jiang Hongyi stopped in front of her, looking down at her.

"Because," Jiang Hongyi said, her voice soft but each word clear, "someone made me realize that I don't need to live in the hatred of the past."

"I can have a fresh start."

"And you, you madman living in your old dreams..."

The flower blade is raised.

"It's time to wake up."

As Shen Qinghe watched the falling blade, the madness faded from her face, leaving only despair.

She subconsciously looked into the distance.

At the edge of the black hole in the old school building, an extremely dim, almost transparent spirit emerged.

It is Lu Yunshen.

He couldn't move and could only watch from afar.

He looked at Jiang Hongyi, then at Su Xiaobai standing behind Jiang Hongyi with an expression that said, "My wife is awesome," and finally his gaze fell on Shen Qinghe, whose face was full of despair.

A very complex expression appeared on Lu Yun Shen's remnant spirit face.

I feel relieved.

I feel tired.

And a little bit...like the relief of finally letting go.

He nodded very slightly in the direction of Jiang Hongyi.

Then, the spirit completely dissipated, turning into specks of light and dust that merged into the darkness of the old school building.

It's as if it never existed.

Shen Qinghe witnessed this scene.

She saw Lu Yun Shen's last look.

She wasn't in that look.

There never has been.

"Heh...heh..." Shen Qinghe laughed, a laugh more painful than tears. "So...it was all just wishful thinking on my part all along..."

Jiang Hongyi's flower blade stopped an inch above her head.

It declined.

"Kill me." Shen Qinghe closed her eyes. "Anyway... I have nothing left to cherish."

Jiang Hongyi looked at her and remained silent for a few seconds.

Then, he put away the flower blade.

The flower blade in her hand transformed back into a complete red rose, only now its color was more vibrant, as if it had been soaked in blood.

"I won't kill you." Jiang Hongyi turned and walked towards Su Xiaobai. "You're not worthy to dirty my hands."

She walked up to Su Xiaobai, pinned the rose back to his chest, and placed it next to the two she had already put on.

Three roses, shimmering faintly in the moonlight.

"Let's go." Jiang Hongyi took Su Xiaobai's hand. "This place... is really over."

Su Xiaobai glanced back at Shen Qinghe, who was slumped on the ground with a blank look in her eyes, and then looked at Jiang Hongyi.

"Senior, did your... favorability rating just explode?"

Jiang Hongyi's ears turned red, and she turned her face away: "None of your business."

[Target: Senior in Red (Jiang Hongyi)]

[Favorability: 99/100]

A system notification sounded in Su Xiaobai's mind.

Almost simultaneously, the entire Midnight Girls' Academy scene began to shake slightly.

It looks like a television screen with a poor signal.

We're about to clear the level.

Su Xiaobai gripped Jiang Hongyi's hand tightly.

The two walked side by side toward the academy gate.

Behind her, Shen Qinghe lay paralyzed in a pool of blood, staring motionless into the darkness of the old school building.

Like a soulless shell.

Shen Qinghe lay paralyzed in a pool of blood, watching the light and dust of Lu Yunshen completely dissipate at the edge of the black hole in the old school building, the light in her eyes gradually fading away.

"Haha...hahaha..."

She suddenly laughed, her voice hoarse and unpleasant.

"I lost... Brother Yun Shen... In the end... you still didn't see me..." She supported herself on the ground, swaying as she stood up. The dark red markings on her body began to throb wildly, like veins about to burst. "Since I can't win... since you can never love me..."

Shen Qinghe raised her head, her bloodshot eyes fixed on Jiang Hongyi, then swept over Su Xiaobai, who was protecting Jiang Hongyi from behind.

"Then...you can all die with me!"

She spread her arms wide, her whole body like an inflated balloon, with a strange black and red aura swirling and compressing around her!

The playground ground cracked open with a snap, and the sky darkened.

"She's going to self-destruct!" Jiang Hongyi's expression changed, and she tried to pull Su Xiaobai back.

But Shen Qinghe was serious this time. The gravitational field formed instantly by her self-destruction locked down the space within dozens of meters around her!

Su Xiaobai felt as if she was being held down by an invisible hand, unable to move.

Live stream chat:

"Holy crap! If they can't win, they'll just self-destruct?"

"If I can't have a classic, I'll destroy it!"

"This lunatic is beyond saving!"

"Senior and Su Shen, run!"

They can't escape.

Shen Qinghe's body had swelled up to the point of being contorted, like a human bomb about to explode, her face bearing a crazed yet liberated smile.

"Jiang Hongyi... Su Xiaobai... and Brother Yun Shen... let's go to hell together..." Just as her body swelled to its limit and was about to explode—

hum!

An extremely dim, almost transparent spirit suddenly rushed out of the black hole in the old school building!

It is Lu Yunshen.

Or rather, it was the last remaining trace of Lu Yun Shen's spirit that hadn't completely dissipated.

He wasn't moving fast; he was even a little unsteady.

But the objective was clear. It charged straight at the core of Shen Qinghe's self-destruction.

"Qinghe..." Lu Yunshen's remnant spirit's voice was very soft, so soft that it was almost inaudible, "That's enough."

He opened his arms, not to hug.

Instead, it transformed into a translucent, pale golden barrier, like a thin eggshell, instantly enveloping Shen Qinghe, who had expanded to her limit!

Shen Qinghe's swollen body suddenly froze.

She stared in astonishment at the pale golden barrier enveloping her, and then looked through the barrier at the lingering spirit outside that was about to completely dissipate.

"Brother Yun Shen...you..." "I'm sorry." Lu Yun Shen's remaining spirit looked at her, his face showing neither hatred nor love, only a deep weariness. "In this life...I owe you."

"But I can't let you... hurt Red Dress anymore."

The words fell.

The pale golden barrier suddenly contracted inward!

Shen Qinghe's swollen body was forcibly compressed back, the crazed expression on her face froze, and then, together with Lu Yunshen's remnant spirit within the barrier, turned into specks of golden dust and vanished silently.

There was no loud noise.

There was no explosion.

It's like being gently erased by an eraser, leaving nothing behind.

The playground returned to calm.

Only the crater that Shen Qinghe smashed in the ground proves what just happened.
