When 'God' Decides To Start Over-Chapter 949 - 367: Land of Despair (Part 3)

A person rolled out from the mushroom cluster, using a lazy donkey roll to dodge the sweep of the Forbidden Spear.

"Why are you here?" Li Xiu recognized who it was and couldn't help being slightly taken aback.

The one climbing up from the ground was none other than Jiuxiao Yun.

Jiuxiao Yun brushed the dirt and slime off his body. During his roll, he had crushed quite a few mushrooms on the ground, and the juice seeping from those mushrooms was all over him.

Fortunately, the juice from those mushrooms didn't have any peculiar smell; it even had a faint fragrance. However, it was too sticky and difficult to clean.

Jiuxiao Yun rubbed for quite a while but couldn't wipe off the juice, and said gloomily, "Han Minghui spent a lot of money inviting me to help. Commander, why are you here too? Did Han Minghui invite you as well? Why didn't she mention it earlier?"

"What did Han Minghui ask you to help with?" Li Xiu was slightly taken aback.

"What else could it be? She wants to kill the Divine Position Demon Spirit, otherwise, why would she spend a lot of money to get me here." Jiuxiao Yun asked with some surprise, "Weren't you invited by Han Minghui? Then what are you doing here? You're not planning to steal her Demon Spirit, are you? High, truly high, a commander is indeed a commander. Are you planning to wait until Han Minghui and the Divine Position Demon Spirit are mutually damaged and then take advantage..."

"I had no idea Han Minghui was coming here to kill the Divine Position Demon Spirit." Li Xiu said to Jiuxiao Yun, "Did she ask you to kill the Divine Position Demon Spirit? Isn't that a bit too reckless?"

Jiuxiao Yun suddenly felt depressed and said, "Although I indeed have no capability to kill the Divine Position Demon Spirit and was just invited to explore, Commander, what you said is somewhat hurtful."

Li Xiu laughed and said, "So she recruited you to explore the path; she found the right person then. Who else did Han Minghui invite? Where does she plan to kill the Divine Position Demon Spirit?"

"Besides me, Han Minghui invited six others; the other five are Spirit Forging Level big shots from various families. Even if you haven't met them, you should have heard their names. The other one you should be familiar with is Wan Chaocun from the Wan Family." Jiuxiao Yun said.

"Sister Chun also came." Li Xiu was slightly surprised.

Han Minghui was scavenged for so many treasures by him, yet still had the capital to invite so many Spirit Forging Level big shots, even inviting Wan Chaocun who had grievances with the Han Family; she definitely has some means.

"The Divine Position Demon Spirit she wants to kill is nearby; I'm searching for it now. Han Minghui said it's nearby, but the exact location is hard to say, since the Demon Spirit isn't an inanimate object and can't stay in one place forever."

Hearing Jiuxiao Yun's words, Li Xiu was considerably relieved. The Divine Position Demon Spirit he was after wasn't in the Mushroom Forest; he had to pass through here to find it, so it shouldn't be the same target as Han Minghui's group.

As the two were speaking, Han Minghui and others searching for the Demon Spirit in other directions seemed to hear the commotion and came rushing over.

Han Minghui was slightly taken aback seeing Li Xiu, while Wan Chaocun was all smiles.

"Brother Xiu, why did you come here?" Wan Chaocun, full of charm, made every frown and smile feel like a comforting breeze. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"Sister Chun, I came here for some matters, didn't expect to encounter you." Li Xiu said.

Hearing this, Han Minghui's face changed slightly, and she frowned, saying, "Commander Li, I've given you everything you wanted. Surely you don't plan to annihilate me, even snatching the Divine Position Demon Spirit I've researched for so long?"

"I indeed came to kill a Divine Position Demon Spirit." Once Li Xiu said this, Han Minghui's face became even more unpleasant, as if she had swallowed a fly, feeling uncomfortable yet irate, making her originally charming features nearly scrunch up.

"But rest assured, the Divine Position Demon Spirit I'm after isn't in the Mushroom Forest. I have no intention of stealing yours." Li Xiu added.

Han Minghui's face eased slightly hearing Li Xiu, though she couldn't fully trust him, probing, "Where exactly is the Divine Position Demon Spirit Commander Li is after? I'm quite familiar with this place and might be able to help a bit."

"No need; the Divine Position Demon Spirit I'm after is outside the Mushroom Forest. I've already researched the location thoroughly, so I won't trouble you." Li Xiu said.

"Brother Xiu, you going alone to kill the Divine Position Demon Spirit is rather dangerous; why not wait a bit, let me finish things here and accompany you?" Wan Chaocun seemed in high spirits, perhaps paying a significant price to bring her here.

Li Xiu was about to refuse when Han Minghui suddenly said, "If Commander Li is willing to assist me, the things you previously borrowed from the Han Family can be written off."

Han Minghui's proposition somewhat surprised Li Xiu.

Han Minghui spent so much yet only asks for help to kill a Divine Position Demon Spirit to offset it; it's unlike her usual ways.

After all, the chance of a Divine Position Demon Spirit dropping a Divine Position Gemstone is quite low; the likelihood of it appearing by killing a single Demon Spirit is extremely low.

Li Xiu had promised Han Minghui to get her a Divine Position Gemstone in the future, and now she forfeited this chance, opting for Li Xiu's assistance, which seemed rather odd.

"Vice President Han, have you encountered any trouble?" Li Xiu frowned.

"To be honest, I have encountered some difficulties. The Divine Position Demon Spirit I've been researching for so long has been found, but unfortunately, there's been an accident. The Divine Position Demon Spirit has undergone some peculiar changes, seemingly mutated. Despite the assistance of these few, things initially seemed certain, but now there are troubles..." Han Minghui candidly disclosed her current predicament.

Han Minghui seemed to already have some understanding of Li Xiu, knowing that this person can't be coerced but must be reasoned with.

Having told Li Xiu everything now, Li Xiu actually felt reluctant to seize her mutated Divine Position Demon Spirit.

"Mutated?" Li Xiu was quite surprised at the news.

The chance of a mutated Divine Position Demon Spirit occurring is even lower than that of a Divine Position Gemstone appearing; Han Minghui encountering such an event was unexpected.

"No wonder Han Minghui is willing to exchange my promise for assistance; my previous deduction might be correct that a mutated Divine Position Demon Spirit must drop a Divine Position Gemstone." Li Xiu pondered internally.
