394. Lan Xuanyu Arrives, The Young Dragon God Stuns the Entire Audience [Second Update]_1

Zi Ji felt like an idiot and very much wanted to pinch herself at her philtrum.

I knew it!

The downgrade really happened!

Without knowing the specific damage values of the skills, one should never try them lightly, this is a bloody lesson.

Gu Yuena frowned slightly in displeasure, "All of you, what exactly is going on? There are already few chances to attack, and now there have been two downgrades today. With this, you still want to compete? With what do you plan to win?"

Zi Ji, standing on the stage, turned around with a bow, feeling very self-reproachful and embarrassed, after hearing the scolding from her lord below, "I'm sorry, my lord, I'm sorry!"

Gu Yuena crossed her arms and did not respond.

She couldn't help but turn her head to glance at Bi Bidong's side, staring at Bi Bidong's beautiful profile and let out a slight sigh.

Have I heard this woman... has a Deity Experience Card?

Is it because her attack time is scheduled earlier, so the rewards she gets are much better?

At least so far, Gu Yuena had not seen a Deity Experience Card drop.

With this reward, the Martial Soul Hall camp is definitely the strongest opponent they have...

For the first time, Gu Yuena began to feel nervous, especially since her subordinates were not performing well.

Just now, upon hearing Gu Yuena mention the Soul Master contest, Qian Renxue, who had once divined the outcome of the Soul Master contest, was stunned.

She couldn't remember at all who the final winner was, ah... this feeling of forgetting was so uncomfortable, Qian Renxue silently tapped her head with her hand.

...

"The Left Key of Space-Time? Is it that key which opens the Spatiotemporal Gate?"

Zi Ji asked, somewhat surprised.

Lin Yi nodded.

"Aaah! Why did I get this reward!"

Zi Ji somewhat collapsed on the stage, holding her head.

Undoubtedly, this reward not only brought no benefits to her personally, but it also meant that there would be one more person on-site to share the rewards with them.

Zi Ji didn't dare to look back anymore, standing there shivering, because she could feel the increasingly intense murderous aura belonging to Gu Yuena coming from behind!

Her back was ice cold...

At this moment, Lin Yi picked up a red orb of light in his hand and flicked it towards Zi Ji.

The red orb of light turned into a spinning key mid-air and was steadily caught by Zi Ji.

It was a beautifully crafted Golden Key, engraved with many complex incantations. Zi Ji was seeing this Space-Time Key for the first time, and couldn't help but take a few extra looks.

It seemed very impressive, and the key appeared to hold a power beyond her understanding, for it shimmered with flowing light, quite beautiful to behold.

Just then, a "ding" sound came from Lin Yi's side.

Zi Ji looked up to see another Golden Key being flicked towards her.

"Heave-ho!"

Zi Ji jumped in place to catch the key.

One on each side!

Lin Yi spoke, "Go open the gate."

"Right!"

The sole benefit of this reward seemed to be that she could act as the "opener" of the Spatiotemporal Gate once, but honestly, it felt quite novel.

Zi Ji happily stepped down from the stage, but as soon as she caught the icy gaze from Gu Yuena, the smile on Zi Ji's face quickly vanished.

Whine, whine, whine, my lord, can you please stop staring at me?

She walked forward with her head down, choosing a spot in the middle of the two Spatiotemporal Gates.

Orange and Wang Qiu'er turned their heads to look back, seeing Zi Ji raise both her hands simultaneously and insert the keys into the void with her left and right hands.

At that moment, an ethereal, massive golden door emerged in the air, adorned with a halo of golden light that swirled like mist, accompanied by incomprehensible runes, and the two keys perfectly fit into its keyholes.

Lin Yi reminded from behind, "Turn the left one half a circle clockwise, and the right one a quarter circle counterclockwise."

The runes on each key represented the way to unlock the door with that key, but only Lin Yi could see them, as he had the explanatory notes provided by the System.

Zi Ji did as Lin Yi instructed, and the "click-click" sound of the keys turning echoed until they came to a stop.

She pushed open the golden door with some trepidation, and instantly, a powerful surge of light burst forth from within.

Everyone couldn't help but raise their hands to shield their eyes.

Zi Ji was the first to recover, and when she saw what was inside, she was dumbstruck.

Behind the golden door was actually a room?!

A small room that didn't seem very large, but was quite cozily furnished, with walls covered in cute patterns and very soft colors.

What puzzled Zi Ji was that everything in the room was quite small, from the bed to the stools, to the bowl on the table that was only half-eaten.

Hmm?

"What the hell!!"

Zi Ji's eyes widened as she suddenly took several steps backward in fright.

There was a pile of toys on the floor of the room, and among them, a pair of bright, curious eyes was staring at her.

Good thing she looked down first, or she might have stepped right on it upon entering.

But just then, the owner of those big eyes suddenly smiled, saliva drooling from his mouth as he crawled towards Zi Ji.

This scene made Zi Ji's mind explode, and she quickly retreated, not daring to guess who the other party was or where this door led to—she could only stay alert!

Seeing Zi Ji retreat in terror, everyone was perplexed about what had happened and hurriedly crowded over to see.

"What did you see that scared you so much?"

Gu Yuena asked Di Tian with a cool expression on her face.

Di Tian shook his head, "I have no idea; I can't see past all these people. Do these damned humans really love bustling about this much?"

Gu Yuena snorted coldly, "Forget it, it's none of our concern. As long as the newcomer keeps to their place, it's fine, but if they take what rightly belongs to us, hmph, don't blame me for not being polite."

Di Tian, feeling the dangerous aura emanating from his master, swallowed hard and obediently nodded.

Suddenly, his gaze locked onto something, "Master... this newcomer, it seems unlikely they'll compete with us for benefits..."

"Why?"

Gu Yuena looked over, her purple-golden pupils flashing a cold light.

Zi Ji continued to move backward, while in front of her, a baby was crawling on the ground, laughing as it moved toward her.

This was actually a tender, pink little infant!

The infant's skin was smooth and translucent, resembling jelly, with long eyelashes and a mouth dripping saliva, sporting two tiny, newly-sprouted white teeth on the lower gums.

He was extremely cute, or rather, beautiful, with a bit of a fat, round face and two small dimples because he was smiling.

The little fellow was only wearing a chunky diaper and a pink baby's cap on his head. His crawling speed kept increasing as he emitted angelic laughter.

He didn't seem to have any offensive power at all.

Then, it seemed as if the baby noticed the unevenness on the ground ahead, so he stopped, sat on the floor, and curiously surveyed the nearly thousand people present with his sparkling big eyes.

Gu Yuena furrowed her brows, "What is this thing? A human baby?"

Di Tian quipped, "It obviously couldn't be a ferocious beast's cub."

He was quickly met with a glare from Gu Yuena.

Lin Yi, sitting on the stage, was somewhat stunned as he looked at the name that appeared on the panel.
