When 'God' Decides To Start Over-Chapter 775 - 309 Jade Castle_3

As Li Xiu expected, the divine light on the Jade Demon King surged, and his palms seemed like two green suns, likely intending to crush him.

Bang!

Unexpectedly, the Jade Demon King's palms didn't strike Li Xiu but instead slammed into the closed Jade Gate.

With this powerful hit, the already closed Jade Gate was forcefully nudged open a crack.

Li Xiu was overjoyed, thinking the Jade Demon King wanted to escape too. As long as the Jade Demon King pushed the door open again, he would have a chance to rush out.

With that strike, the Jade Demon King only managed to open the door slightly, desperately pushing outward with both hands but unable to open it further.

Opening the door consumed too much energy; when the Jade Demon King first attempted to open the door, a significant amount of light energy was already expended, leaving no strength to push the door open further now.

Seeing this, Li Xiu wasted no time and leaped towards the gap the Jade Demon King had opened, hoping he could squeeze through.

Almost simultaneously as Li Xiu rushed towards the gap, the Jade Demon King sprayed a ray of light from his mouth, aiming for the gap as well.

The speed of the light was much faster than Li Xiu, passing under him swiftly and slipping through the gap.

In that instant when he intersected with the light, Li Xiu saw that it contained a baby, who locked eyes with him. He even saw the baby sucking its thumb and kicking its little legs joyfully.

After the baby passed through the gap, Li Xiu continued to rush forward. Just as he was about to reach the gap, the Jade Demon King released his grip, and the door closed swiftly with a thud, too quick for Li Xiu to react. Missing the opportunity by a hair, Li Xiu slammed into the door, seeing stars and bleeding from his nose. He stuck to the door before sliding down, leaving two long bloodstains on the door.

Falling to the ground, Li Xiu quickly supported himself up against the door, one hand covering his nose; the intense pain made him tear up.

After feeling slightly better, Li Xiu turned his head to look back, only to see the Jade Demon King staring at him from a short distance.

And behind the Jade Demon King, countless Jade Warriors stretched out of sight, all staring at him as well.

Li Xiu's neck turned robotically, realizing jade warriors surrounded him in all directions, likely numbering in the hundreds of thousands, with lights flickering like a sea of stars. He truly had no avenue of escape, either above or below ground.

"What sin did I commit in my past life for heaven to treat me like this?" Li Xiu felt like coughing up blood from frustration. No matter how strong he was, he couldn't possibly defeat so many demonic spirits, let alone the Divine Position-level Jade Demon King.

When the Divine Position-level Jade Demon King attempted to open the door earlier, most of its power was used for pushing, and it was further restrained by the Trial Gate's rules, enabling Li Xiu to gain a slight advantage.

Now, with the Jade Demon King standing there perfectly fine and Li Xiu devoid of Demon Armor, survival seemed bleak.

Li Xiu stealthily pulled out the Longevity Treasure Chopsticks, clutching them in his hand. In times like these, he could only fight desperately, praying for a chance of survival from heaven.

The Jade Demon King and the sea of Jade Warriors glared fiercely at Li Xiu, their demonic light rising. Especially the Jade Demon King, whose Jade Divine Light nearly solidified, looking as if it wanted to gobble Li Xiu's flesh and bones.

"Longevity Treasure Chopsticks... can't you give a reaction..." Li Xiu clutched the chopsticks, but they remained unresponsive, like lifeless objects.

Li Xiu doubted whether the Longevity Treasure Chopsticks were too afraid to react.

The chopsticks seemed mighty when they killed the Pseudo-God Position Li Changyin, but in reality, it was merely a Pseudo-God Position. Now facing the genuine Divine Position Jade Demon King, it was a different matter entirely.

Adding the hundreds of thousands of Jade Warriors, if Li Xiu were in their place, he would play dead too.

"Forget it, better to rely on oneself than on others." Li Xiu's eyes began to glow white, preparing to use Ghostly Eye Covering desperately; surviving even for a moment was precious.

"Roar!" The Jade Demon King let out a sky-shattering roar, and the vast army of Jade Warriors echoed it, creating a grand momentum that made Li Xiu feel like an ant about to be drowned by a tidal wave.

Just as the Jade Demon King and the tidal wave of Jade Warriors were about to charge, a gentle voice suddenly came from afar.

"Little Cui, bring him over." The voice was soft, making one feel somewhat weak.

Yet, the roar of hundreds of thousands of demonic spirits could not overpower that gentle voice, carrying clearly to Li Xiu's ears.

Li Xiu listened to what sounded like a woman's voice, and astonishingly, all the demonic spirits quieted down upon hearing it.

"Little Cui... don't tell me it's referring to this guy?" Li Xiu looked at the giant god-like Jade Demon King, finding it hard to associate "Little Cui" with such a figure.

"Roar!" The Jade Demon King let out a strange roar at Li Xiu, then slowly reached out to grab him.

Thoughts flashed through Li Xiu's mind, but ultimately he remained still, letting the Jade Demon King seize him.

True to form, the Jade Demon King did not harm him, simply capturing Li Xiu, then turned and walked away.

The vast army of Jade Warriors parted to form a path, allowing Li Xiu to vaguely see what appeared to be a Jade Castle at the end.

Carrying Li Xiu, the Jade Demon King strode nearly a hundred meters with each step, soon reaching the entrance of the castle.

The Jade Castle seemed carved from a massive emerald, a majestic sight, yet before the Jade Demon King, appeared more like a toy built from blocks.

Li Xiu saw that the highest structure of the castle was tower-like, with a beautiful woman in a green dress standing on its balcony, unexpectedly human.

The Jade Demon King reached out, placing Li Xiu inside the castle, and released him, causing Li Xiu to fall in front of the tower.

"Little Cui, you may go rest now," the beautiful woman on the balcony smiled, addressing the Jade Demon King.

The Jade Demon King emitted a sound akin to a mewling cat or dog, then obediently turned away from the Jade Castle.
