"Chu Feng, let me out," the Queen said.
Chu Feng quickly opened the Spirit World Gate, and the Queen stepped out, her gaze falling upon the frost-covered woman.
"You could hear the conversation I was having with Chu Feng inside the Spirit World space?" the Queen asked directly.
"Not just that," the frost woman said.
That simple response — just two words — immediately made both Chu Feng and the Queen realize that this woman's strength was far beyond what they had imagined.
But then again, that was only to be expected.
After all, this was a Divine Artifact Inheritance Site.
And this woman was most likely the one in control of it.
"Then tell me, what's different about this Asura Demon Tower?" the Queen asked.
"Inside this Asura Demon Tower, there are indeed demonic beings sealed from the Asura Spirit World. However, due to the special modifications made to the Asura Demon Tower, those beings currently cannot manifest in their true forms."
"After Chu Feng enters, he won't be directly facing those demonic beings. As long as his strength is sufficient, not only will he not die, he will be able to defeat them."
"As long as he can defeat the demonic beings, he will naturally be able to obtain the treasure inside," the frost woman explained.
"And how is he supposed to defeat them?" the Queen pressed.
The frost woman smiled faintly, then said: "If I told you how to defeat them, what would be the point of the trial? I might as well just hand the treasure over to you."
The frost woman's demeanor was one of clear impatience.
"Chu Feng, the Asura Demon Tower is no ordinary place. If you don't have confidence, you absolutely must not step inside. I won't allow you to enter," the Queen said to Chu Feng.
"But..." Chu Feng hesitated.
"Chu Feng, I'll give you three seconds to think about it. If you don't dare to enter, I'll send you out of here immediately."
"At the same time, I will erase all of your memories regarding this place. For the rest of your life, you will never have the chance to set foot here again."
"You should be well aware that I have the ability to make you forget everything about this place completely," the frost woman said.
"Eggy, I'm sorry, but this is one thing I can't agree to."
After saying this to the Queen, Chu Feng didn't wait for the frost woman's response. He launched himself forward and soared straight into the eighteenth floor of the Asura Demon Tower.
"Chu Feng, come back!!!" The Queen shouted immediately, and she tried to take to the air to follow Chu Feng into the eighteenth floor.
But at that very moment, the Queen made a startling discovery — she couldn't move.
She turned to look at the frost woman. "Release me."
She knew it was the frost woman who had restrained her.
But the frost woman simply let out a contemptuous laugh.
"Release you? Why should I listen to you? What right do you have to order me around?"
"Have you truly forgotten the law of the strong devouring the weak after all your time fighting in the Cultivation Martial World?"
After finishing her words, the frost woman added: "Allow me to remind you of something — don't forget your place just because Chu Feng treats you too well."
"A Spirit World creature should do what a Spirit World creature is supposed to do."
"And what a Spirit World creature is supposed to do is obey their master's commands unconditionally."
"You are nothing more than Chu Feng's Spirit World creature. What right do you have to interfere with his decisions?"
"What if, inside that tower, lies an opportunity that could change Chu Feng's entire life — and because of your interference, he misses it?"
"Can you bear the weight of that responsibility?"
The frost woman's voice was cold and reprimanding.
Hearing these words, the Queen was struck speechless.
In that moment, she truly didn't know what to say.
Because she felt that this woman's words were entirely correct.
She had been acting in Chu Feng's best interests — she knew how dangerous the Asura Demon Tower was, and she had tried to stop him from entering it for his own safety.
But she had overlooked one crucial fact: Chu Feng had come here and earned the opportunity to challenge the Asura Demon Tower at great cost.
What was this place?
This was a Divine Artifact Inheritance Site.
And the true secret of this inheritance site most likely lay within that Asura Demon Tower.
This was an opportunity that came once in a thousand years.
Who was she to deprive Chu Feng of it?
Fortune favors the bold — wasn't that something Chu Feng and she had always believed in?
Hadn't that been the principle that had carried them through every hardship along the way?
