Just then, a prompt from the System suddenly sounded in my mind.
[Due to the previous plane's process proceeding too swiftly, leading to unstable foundations, coupled with the host carrying sufficient force to destroy the plane's laws, this moment's encounter with the Pirate Empress has too strong a causality and may lead to the collapse of the plane.]
[Kindly request the host to return to Douluo; after a few hours for the plane to repair, everything can go back to normal.]
How frustrating, I just met this disobedient daughter, and I haven't even spanked her yet... Well, I'll go back and spank Gu Yuena instead.
Lin Yi looked at the Empress crying on the ground and said,
"Just remembered I forgot to turn off the stove after cooking, I'll come to find you again in a few decades; make sure you govern Da Qian well, I'm always watching you."
The Pirate Empress's beautiful eyes widened in shock, not daring to speak, only nodding timidly like a pecking chick.
Everyone watched as Lin Yi disappeared into thin air.
And those Immortal Army soldiers posted on top of the city wall suddenly began screaming and tumbling down one after another...
...
"What are you sleeping for? You still have one attack opportunity! Finish and get off the stage!"
Gu Yuena pinched Bi Ji's fair face, scolding her with disappointment.
Dead goose, can't you see I'm in a hurry to get down!!!
Lin Yi had just snapped back to reality when he saw the scene unfolding before him.
Indeed, spending a few dozen minutes in that plane was less than the blink of an eye here in Douluo.
Speaking of which, Bi Ji really has the patience, actually managing to spend a full five days in her plane without even blinking once.
"I'm truly sleepy~"
Bi Ji yawned, her eyes squinting into slits.
"I won't allow it! Wake up! Come on, wake up!"
Gu Yuena shook Bi Ji's shoulders in desperation, calling her a Silly Goose, not wanting to face Lin Yi alone!
She immediately gave Bi Ji a "mind-clearing head bonk."
"Bang!"
"Feeling alert now?"
"Wuuu, I'm alert..."
The two women looked back at Lin Yi; Bi Ji had a big bump on her forehead, tearfully deploying Jade Light. A golden ancient tree pattern emerged on her forehead, so at first glance, it looked like there was a big bump growing on the golden ancient tree.
Green light rippled around them, filled with the breath of life. Golden runes spread out like silk ribbons, encircling Gu Yuena's delicate body.
Wind, fire, ice; the three elements converged in her pale palms. Green "petals" opened, a white Ice Lotus enveloping a fiery red pistil. Gu Yuena hurled the Tri-Element Mixture at Lin Yi.
Ice and fire exploded, with green wind spreading between them. Fire tornadoes and ice tornadoes merged, turning the area where Lin Yi stood into a hellish meat grinder, with elements continuously reacting, damage piling up, and the entire platform flickering with light, soon enveloped by boiling steam.
This time, Gu Yuena remembered to shield Bi Ji from the scalding vapor, leaving a small "safe zone" behind her.
Bi Ji stood behind Gu Yuena, gingerly lifting her little hands to touch the big bump on her head, squeezing out two more tears from the pain.
Humph, although she's awake, she doesn't like her master anymore...
Damage Rebound came, and with a wave of her hand, Gu Yuena let out a surge of silver brilliance to meet it and engulf it entirely.
Having done this, Gu Yuena smiled in relief, as if freed from a burden, ready to slip off the stage. However, Lin Yi's voice from behind made her freeze.
"So eager to get down?"
Gu Yuena turned around with an uneasy expression and feigned a smile, shaking her head: "Not at all..."
"How could you bear to leave this Silly Goose alone on the stage?"
Gu Yuena glanced at Bi Ji, who returned a bewildered and innocent stare.
Aaaargh, so annoying!
Gu Yuena silently returned to Bi Ji's side, on the verge of tears.
Lin Yi looked at the panel.
[Blood Loss: 757,698]
[Remaining Health: 899,918,299,368]
[Damage Level: Gold (Novice)]
[Random Reward: Soul Bone (within 30,000-year limit) drops intermittently]
[Host Reward: Soul Bone (within 100,000-year limit) drops intermittently]
What does it mean, is Bi Ji also going to drop loot now?
Lin Yi looked at the explanation.
He paused, hey, this explanation in the notes actually makes perfect sense!
Why do I get the feeling that the System is raising this goose as a mascot?
Lin Yi said, "Damage 757698, Golden Junior, your reward is... a soul bone that drops from your body at random times."
The people at the scene sprouted question marks above their heads.
It was normal for soul beasts to drop soul bones, but wasn't that... after they died?
Bi Ji's pretty face turned pale at once, and she waved her hands frantically: "Goose Goose doesn't want to die!"
This was just how it went for soul beasts; humans hunted them for their soul bones, so the mention of a soul bone drop would strike fear into them, almost becoming an instinct for any soul beast.
Lin Yi was a bit stunned but then explained, "It's not about you dying."
"This reward means that while you're alive, a soul bone will drop from your body at unpredictable times, and the reward I'm giving requires you attackers to be alive for it to take effect."
Goose Goose ⊙_⊙.
Alright, as long as it doesn't involve dying.
Lin Yi continued:
"There's no exact timing for the drop, but there is a set probability for the types of soul bones that will drop: an 18% chance for a skull bone, 12% for a soul bone of trunk, 40% for an arm bone, and 30% for a leg bone."
"And each type of soul bone will be within the 30,000-year limit."
Goose Goose ⊙_⊙
No ripples in the heart.
This reward seemed to have no effect on Goose Goose~
After all, it seemed like soul beasts couldn't fuse with soul bones.
After finishing his explanation, Lin Yi flicked the golden light sphere towards Bi Ji.
After fusing with the reward, Bi Ji curiously inspected her body, apparently unaffected by any wounds, and then she was certain she didn't need to die.
But from where would the soul bone drop?
Skull bone from the head? Arm bone from the arms?
At this moment, Gu Yuena sneakily observed Lin Yi's reaction, hoping to step down, right?
She tentatively started walking down, and since Lin Yi didn't speak, Gu Yuena finally relaxed and returned to her underlings.
Ah, she felt so suffocated in front of this man!
Bi Ji followed behind, and just then, a "plop" sounded from behind her.
She turned around and saw an arm bone glowing with black light lying quietly on the ground,
The crowd stared dumbfounded at the scene before them.
Did it just, suddenly drop?!
Lin Yi had just watched the soul bone drop from under Bi Ji's skirt, seemingly from her buttocks, creating a feeling akin to laying an egg.
Bi Ji covered her rear, her eyes wide with shock as she quickly scuttled off the stage, leaving the dropped soul bone behind.
At this moment, everyone was eagerly eyeing the soul bone left on the stage, their expressions filled with desire. Oh my, that was a soul bone!
Useless to soul beasts, but to human Soul Masters, it was incredibly beneficial!
But out of respect for Lin Yi's presence, no one dared to rush up to grab it, although they were poised to dash forward.
Thousand Waves signaled to the Third Offeror at that moment.
Close doors, release number two!
Understanding the hint, the Third Offeror nudged the Little Golden Crocodile, which scurried up the stage, yelping and claw waving, grabbed the arm bone in front of everyone, and declared its dominance with an obstinate look before swaggering back to the Martial Soul Hall's ranks.
Everyone was stunned.
Crap! Thousand Waves, you old fox! Absolutely deceitful!
Sending a little brat out to snatch the soul bone—who's going to contest with a kid, especially in front of Senior Lin Yi? That bad impression would be the end of it.
Yet now, many clever people...
Bi Ji clutched her buttocks with both hands, her eyes shimmering with a pitiful light.
Because many people were now positioning themselves behind her, just waiting for Bi Ji to lay an egg... or rather, drop a soul bone.
"My lord, help me..."
She pleaded with Gu Yuena for help.
Gu Yuena looked back at the Soul Masters, her eyes turning into the cold dual colors of purple and gold, as the might of the Silver Dragon King emanated outward, causing the Soul Masters to recoil in fear and scatter away.
"Di Tian."
"Your subordinate is here."
"Guard Bi Ji's rear."
"Hm? Understood... understood!"
