Qi Chen was amused by Feng Yuan’s words, grabbed the bracelet, swung it around, and said with a laugh

“Do you think you’re a Divine Beast?

You’ve got some nerve claiming that a bracelet you made yourself could bring luck.”

Feng Yuan smiled mysteriously and said freewebnoveℓ.com

“Believe it or not, that’s up to you~”

He took Xiao Ji down from his head, looked at the large tree in front of him that was sprouting Emerald Gems, and asked

“Xiao Ji, do you want something to eat?”

“Ji~”

Qi Chen stood up, looked at Xiao Shuang and the others who were still discussing something, and, feeling a bit bored, walked over to the giant flowerbed where the Emerald Tree was located.

He knocked on the seemingly petal-like metal decorations on the flowerbed with some confusion and turned to Feng Yuan, saying

“Do you know where these gems come from?”

“Why do you care?”

“It just seems odd, these gems don’t quite look like the various known gemstones.

Considering the amount used in these ruins, there should be a source for these gems.”

Yang Hongzhi passed a Spirit Beast treat from Feng Yuan to Najia, turned his head to Qi Chen, and said

“Those are very rare gemstones.

They were exhausted during the construction of the Emerald Ruins, which is why there’s no source now.”

Feng Yuan looked at Yang Hongzhi with a somewhat amused expression and said

“That theory is just one of many speculations that’s widely circulated, right?

Let’s not mistake conjecture for fact, okay?”

“Hehe…”

Caught out by Feng Yuan, Yang Hongzhi scratched his head, embarrassed.

Qi Chen approached and asked Feng Yuan,

“Then what’s your explanation?”

Feng Yuan looked up at Qi Chen with a mischievous smile and said

“You could go ask Lorraine Tower, it might know~”

“Get lost!

I’m not you!

How could I possibly meet Lorraine Tower!”

“Eh?

You can meet Lorraine Tower?”

Yang Hongzhi looked at Feng Yuan in surprise.

Xiao Ji, having finished eating, smugly swayed its body at Yang Hongzhi.

The tuft of hair on its head also swayed left and right with Xiao Ji’s movements.

Just as Feng Yuan was about to take out a treat, the ground suddenly shook violently.

The gemstones on the Emerald Tree were the first to emit a blinding light, which then spread from the tree, covering all gemstones inside the Emerald Ruins with blinding light.

“Ji!”

While everyone had trouble opening their eyes because of the light, Feng Yuan felt something hit his back hard.

Xiao Ji was thrown out of his arms.

Feng Yuan quickly tried to sense Xiao Ji’s location, but he couldn’t sense Xiao Ji at all.

He reached to touch his shoulder and found that the Dreaming Dragon Baby was still there,

“Hold on tight.”

“Ao!”

With eyes closed, Feng Yuan took out the Sickle and released his spiritual power to sense his surroundings, only to find it was suppressed to the point where he could just barely sense things within one meter around him.

As he extended his spiritual power, Feng Yuan was surprised to find that he was no longer near the Emerald Tree.

After a while, as the light dimmed, he tried to open his eyes and took some time to see the environment clearly.

“What is this?!”

Looking around at the void, Feng Yuan was somewhat astonished.

Under his feet was a quaint corridor made of metal, decorated with mysterious patterns.

Facing the corridor that clearly led in several directions, Feng Yuan tried again to sense Xiao Ji’s location.

When he still couldn’t detect Xiao Ji, he reluctantly looked at the Dreaming Dragon Baby on his shoulder and said

“Hold on, we’re going to look for Xiao Ji.”

“Ao~”

The Dreaming Dragon Baby clung tightly to Feng Yuan’s clothes and nodded at him.

After looking around the corridors leading in various directions, Feng Yuan pointed to his lips with his index finger, closed his eyes, thought for a moment, and then started walking in one of the directions.

“Ji?!”

Xiao Ji found itself in a strange corridor, frantically turned around, and after failing to find Feng Yuan, tried to sense his location with no success.

Eventually, it just sat down on the floor.

Then, as Xiao Ji moved, the tuft on its head fell in front of its face.

Seeing the ribbon tied around the tuft, Xiao Ji stood up, looked around, chose a direction, and resolutely walked off.

“Ah Mu!”

“Doo?”

Upon opening his eyes and finding only himself left, Qi Chen shouted in a bit of panic.

At that moment, Ah Mu poked his head out of Qi Chen’s backpack and peered curiously at Qi Chen’s back.

Qi Chen moved the backpack to the front, looked at the unharmed Ah Mu, and said

“Good, you’re still here…”

“Doot?”

Qi Chen glanced around and, realizing he was once again in an alternative space, said to Ah Mu,

“Ah Mu, I’ll be relying on you for protection soon.

Don’t leave the backpack before we encounter any danger.”

“Doot~”

Qi Chen closed his eyes, randomly pointed in a direction, then opened his eyes and saw that there was a corridor right in that direction.

He walked a few steps towards it, opened his palm, hesitated while looking at the bracelet in his hand, and then slipped it onto his wrist.

“Najia?

Are you okay?”

“Gina~”

“This is…”

Looking at the strange surroundings, Yang Hongzhi quickly grasped their situation.

He summoned Xiao Hei, rubbed its head, and said,

“Can you smell the others?”

“Aoow?”

“Can you find the others?”

Xiao Hei sniffed around, shook his head, and Yang Hongzhi thought for a moment before saying,

“You lead the way ahead later.

These alternative spaces might have strange mechanisms or things.

Be careful not to get hurt.”

“Aoow~”

“Gina…”

“Don’t worry, everyone should be alright.”

Seeing Najia’s worried look in his arms, Yang Hongzhi reassured her.

“It’s all because of his damn jinx.

We actually did run into danger!”

Seeing the weird environment around her, Xiao Shuang quickly realized her predicament.

After checking her phone and finding no signal, she search around and, finding nothing, sat down helplessly and muttered to herself,

“Well then, I’ll just wait here for them.

They’re bound to come looking soon…”

“Tsk!

An alternative space, huh.”

The young man discontentedly surveyed the environment while waving the long spear in his hand,

“Can’t you just break through it?”

The young man looked around impatiently,

“You mean the others got dragged in as well!”

The young man glanced around nervously, and after a while, he took off running directly in one direction.

“How have they not found me yet…”

“Bai An!

Shi Shuang!

Are you there?”

“Brother!

Feng Yuan!

Are you there?”

Xiao Shuang shouted a few times in the empty corridor, but with no response, she ventured a short distance down one corridor before turning back.

She touched the patterns on the pillar of the corridor and said to herself,

“I’d better just wait for them here…

If I wander around, it’ll be hard for everyone to find one another…”

Xiao Shuang’s mutterings echoed in the quiet corridor and time passed without anyone showing up.

Feeling uneasy, she stood up, looked around, and after a long hesitation, she made up her mind.

Her gaze turned determined, and she entered one of the corridors at random, muttering as she went,

“At crucial times, I really can’t count on them…

Would it kill someone to come find me…”

“Hmph, they must be too scared by the sudden change and need me to find them.

Really…”

“These patterns are so pretty~ With this dim light, it would make a great horror movie scene~”

“No, no!

What am I thinking!

Ugh…

wish a living person would show up~”

“Just how big is this alternative space…”

Having walked for a long time without encountering anyone, Feng Yuan couldn’t help but complain.

Seeing the Dreaming Dragon Baby on his shoulder looking around vigilantly, he sighed and randomly chose a path at another crossroad.

Just then, the emerald gemstones and metallic decorations floating around the corridor began to change.

The emerald gems started to emanate a soft green light, and seeing this sudden change, Feng Yuan tightened his grip on the Sickle, watching his surroundings warily.
