When "God" Decides To Start Over

Li Xiu stared at the Demon Spirit, unsure whether to answer yes or no.

"You needn't worry, I guarantee under the name of the King of the Void Realm that as long as you answer my question honestly, I'll ensure you leave the Void Realm alive." The King of the Void Realm said.

"No." Li Xiu hesitated for a moment but spoke truthfully.

"Ah, still no bartender?" The King of the Void Realm let out a long sigh, seeming quite disappointed.

"King of the Void Realm, if there are no further questions, please step aside, I must return." Li Xiu had already noticed a clue, under the King of the Void Realm, grains of sand buried a stone slab.

The grains of sand were moved aside by the King of the Void Realm's body, revealing traces of the stone slab, which Li Xiu inferred was the way out.

"Human, rest assured, since I promised to let you go, I will keep my word, but before that, you must stay with me for a while, telling me about the outside world..." The King of the Void Realm cunningly said.

"What if I want to leave now?" Li Xiu stared at the King of the Void Realm and asked.

Bam!

The King of the Void Realm didn't answer his question, instead, a flash of brilliance flickered in his eyes, and a pit exploded in the sand in front of the vehicle.

Li Xiu saw clearly that the King of the Void Realm was demonstrating its Demonic Light speed. Even the speed of a Masked Emperor couldn't evade such a rapid attack.

In the next moment, the surrounding sand quaked like an earthquake, and giant Demon Spirits emerged from below, once again encircling Li Xiu and the little Demon Spirit.

The King of the Void Realm was extraordinarily cunning, ostensibly letting those giant Demon Spirits retreat, but in reality, they were diving back under the sand, re-surrounding Li Xiu.

Li Xiu was not surprised, as he had already anticipated this possibility, originally intending to say a few words and then make a getaway.

But upon hearing the King of the Void Realm mention the Nether House, he dismissed the idea of leaving, deciding to stay here.

Even if he could escape now, as long as his opponent guarded here, preventing his return, eventually he would fall into the trap.

"Human, you're too naive, in the Void Realm, no living creature can defy my will." The King of the Void Realm said smugly.

"Well... what Void... never mind, I'll just call you Little Void." Li Xiu casually addressed the King of the Void Realm.

"Human, you are courting death; although I promised not to kill you, I can make your life a fate worse than death, enduring endless torment in this Void Realm..." The King of the Void Realm said coldly and angrily.

"Do you want to drink Demon Spirit Wine?" Li Xiu asked casually.

"I've already answered this question, is a human's brain really that dim?" The King of the Void Realm mocked.

"Do you want the refined Demon Spirit Wine?" Li Xiu continued asking without changing his expression.

"Nonsense, otherwise why need a bartender?" The King of the Void Realm said coldly.

"What I drink is refined Demon Spirit Wine." Li Xiu said.

"What does it matter to me that you drank refined Demon Spirit Wine… wait… the Nether House has no bartender… how can you drink refined Demon Spirit Wine…" The King of the Void Realm realized and stared at Li Xiu inquiringly.

"Of course, I mixed the drink myself." Li Xiu laughed.

"You are rather fortunate, randomly combining Demon Spirit Wine without dying from it." The King of the Void Realm evidently doubted Li Xiu's ability to mix drinks.

"Since you can detect the scent of Demon Spirit Wine on me, can't you sense that it's the scent of redemption?" Li Xiu calmly replied, ignoring the King of the Void Realm's ridicule.

"Redemption... you actually know redemption..." The King of the Void Realm was somewhat startled.

"Little Void, your memory is lacking, if you don't even know redemption, how would I mix drinks?" Li Xiu laughed.

The King of the Void Realm surprisingly didn't get angry over Li Xiu calling it Little Void, and stared at Li Xiu for a while, then twisted its body closer to Li Xiu, circling him, seemingly sniffing the scent on him.

"It truly is redemption! You actually drank redemption and survived!" The King of the Void Realm's face, despite only having one eye, perfectly exhibited an expression of shock.

Li Xiu had been drinking redemption for a while and the wine scent on him had weakened. Earlier, the King of the Void Realm sensed a hint of Demon Spirit Wine's aroma but didn't differentiate which type of wine it was. Now, after closer inspection, it determined it was indeed the scent of redemption.

"You really drank redemption?" The King of the Void Realm's voice was somewhat excited.

"What do you think?" Li Xiu smiled.

"You actually know how to mix redemption? That's impossible, how could anyone other than a bartender mix drinks, and how could a bartender leave the Nether House…" The King of the Void Realm's thoughts were evidently somewhat chaotic.

"Could these Demon Spirits really be illiterate? Can't they read the Nether Chronicles?" Li Xiu wondered.

However, this suited Li Xiu's intention; since the King of the Void Realm wants refined Demon Spirit Wine, yet can't mix it itself, Li Xiu felt relieved.

"Little Void, what is there to be surprised about, not only redemption, Demon's Temptation, Silent Forest, Royal Court, True Illusion… I'm adept at all of these…" Li Xiu listed the names of the cocktail recipes he knew.

"You… you know how to mix True Illusion…" The King of the Void Realm widened its eye.

"Want a drink?" Li Xiu asked with a smile.
