When 'God' Decides To Start Over-Chapter 888 - 347: Separated by Life and Death (Part 2)

As he walked past Old Jia, Old Jia was completely unaware, still puffing away at his cigarette.

He passed through the wall, didn't see Old Bai; the chess game on the stone table remained set up, not yet cleared away. It seemed Old Bai left in quite a hurry.

However, Li Ming'Er was already up, playing in the yard with Xiao Shuang and Zizai. Li Xiu walked up to Li Ming'Er and took out the Longevity Treasure Chopsticks.

Since the chairman could see him, Li Xiu didn't believe that no one else could see him.

The Longevity Treasure Chopsticks are originally a pair; even if he had died, the Longevity Treasure Chopsticks couldn't have died too, right? Since he was able to touch the Longevity Treasure Chopsticks, maybe the other chopstick with Li Ming'Er could sense it.

Li Xiu waved the Longevity Treasure Chopsticks in front of Li Ming'Er, but to his disappointment, Li Ming'Er still showed no reaction.

Gritting his teeth, Li Xiu took the Longevity Treasure Chopsticks and tried to touch the other chopstick in Li Ming'Er's hair. His chopstick passed right through it, unable to make contact, and the other chopstick had no reaction.

"Not even a reaction between a pair like the Longevity Treasure Chopsticks?" Li Xiu felt a sinking sensation in his heart.

As Li Xiu was pondering deeply, he suddenly felt a tug on his clothing.

Upon looking down, Li Xiu found that it was Zizai, who was being held by Li Ming'Er. The little one had grasped the hem of his clothes with her tiny hands, looking at him with big, beautiful eyes while sucking her fingers and smiling at him.

"Zizai can touch me?" Suddenly realizing something, Li Xiu joyfully reached out to grab Zizai's little hand.

Yet, when he tried to grab her, his fingers passed right through her tiny hand.

"Strange! Zizai clearly grabbed my hem just now; why can't I touch her?" Li Xiu was momentarily stunned.

Ya ya!

Zizai stretched out her arms as if asking for a hug.

Li Xiu could now be sure that Zizai could definitely see him and had even managed to touch him, though for some reason, he could not touch her.

Li Xiu attempted to extend his finger towards Zizai, and sure enough, her tiny hand grabbed his finger, and Li Xiu could truly feel the tender sensation from her hand. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Filled with joy, as Li Xiu tried to reverse his grip to hold Zizai's tiny hand, the sensation vanished, and his palm passed through her hand.

"How odd, Zizai can only touch me, but I can't touch her. What kind of logic is this?" Li Xiu couldn't figure out what was happening.

Zizai continued to extend her hands for a hug, and Li Ming'Er, not knowing what was going on, assumed she was hungry and picked up a bottle next to her to feed Zizai.

Zizai hugged the bottle, drinking milk while her eyes remained fixed on Li Xiu.

With a flicker of thought, Li Xiu quickly left Courtyard Seven.

Earlier, after the president heard about the Spirit Jar, he had hastily sent Li Xiu away, as if not wanting him to linger too long.

Li Xiu speculated that the chairman perhaps didn't want the Spirit Jar to discover that he could see him, suspecting there was a reason behind this.

Now that Zizai not only could see him but also touch him, Li Xiu naturally couldn't let the Spirit Jar find out, to protect Zizai from being implicated.

After leaving Courtyard Seven, Li Xiu stood alone by the cliff of Spiral Mountain, contemplating all he had experienced.

At present, only the chairman and Zizai could see him, and the clothes he wore and the Longevity Treasure Chopsticks were still on him, yet like him, no one else but Zizai could touch them.

"If my current state were a soul out-of-body experience, I shouldn't still have these items with me, and my physical body shouldn't have disappeared either. The soul out-of-body hypothesis doesn't seem reasonable, unless my body was swallowed by the Spirit Jar, but that also doesn't explain why the Longevity Treasure Chopsticks and my clothes are still here. It can't be that these things soul-traveled with me, right?"

"If I am not in a soul-out-of-body death state now, then why can't I touch anything?" Li Xiu continued to ponder.

Given Li Xiu's knowledge, the most plausible explanation he could think of was the possibility of parallel spaces.

The so-called separation of yin and yang could be two different worlds, overlapping but not interfering. He may have been pulled into another world by the Spirit Jar, which is why he couldn't touch anything in the Long Life Heaven, nor could anyone see him.

If this hypothesis holds, then why can Zizai and the chairman see him? Even Zizai can touch him.

Li Xiu considered two possibilities. One is that they possess abilities akin to the Yin-Yang Eye, which enables them to see a parallel overlapping world.

Zizai might even have the ability to traverse the two overlapping worlds, hence her ability to touch him.

"Zizai being able to see me isn't unexpected, after all, Zizai is a being from the Demon Kingdom, possibly even from the Time Tunnel, which might give her a unique constitution. But why can the chairman see me? Is it due to his high level or due to special abilities?" Li Xiu silently speculated.

"You should be able to accept your death now, right?" The Spirit Jar floated over, soon hovering in front of Li Xiu, its nine eyes gazing at him as it spoke with a smile.
