The golden-haired woman's smile was not only bewitching but alluring, utterly mesmerizing.
"Oh my, this scene feels rather familiar."
The Divine Deer's voice rang out, carrying a rare hint of amusement — a teasing, lighthearted tone that she had only used back when she first met Chu Feng.
"Could it be another Divine Skill?"
Egg Egg grew excited as well.
Back when Chu Feng had first encountered the Divine Deer, she had tested him in much the same way. Perhaps all Divine Skills tested people like this.
But while Egg Egg was getting excited, Chu Feng felt deeply uneasy.
The woman had told him to look his fill, and she had indeed risen completely from the pool. Yet that golden aura concealed precisely the parts that needed concealing — the places he shouldn't be seeing were hidden entirely.
More importantly, it was her bewitching smile, and the look in those golden eyes. That was the gaze of a predator eyeing its prey.
"I did deliberately let you in here."
"But the fact that you managed to find this place is already extraordinary."
When the golden-haired woman spoke, Egg Egg grew even more excited. "Look, look, look — she calls herself a god. It really must be a Divine Skill."
By now, the golden-haired woman had arrived right in front of Chu Feng.
"Chu Feng, you truly live up to your reputation."
As she spoke, her fair and slender hand came to rest atop Chu Feng's head, then slid slowly downward.
Not to mention — that hand was not only beautiful to look at, but the sensation against his skin was remarkably pleasant. It glided over his hair, across his cheeks, down his neck, past his shoulders, and over his chest.
But Chu Feng had absolutely no mood to enjoy the feeling. A powerful premonition told him this was no blessing. The person before him was no benevolent being.
"Elder, you know of me?" Chu Feng asked, feigning composure while maintaining a tone full of respect.
"Within the Eight Paths Heavenly River today, who hasn't heard of the most celebrated genius Spirit World Master? Would this god not have heard of you?"
As the golden-haired woman spoke, her hand had already slid down to Chu Feng's Dantian — and stopped there.
"However, what this god finds far more interesting is your Heavenly Thunder Bloodline."
At those words, the golden-haired woman raised her gaze from Chu Feng's abdomen and looked him straight in the eyes. At such close range, those golden eyes were even more brilliant and striking — eyes filled with a divine luminance that no mortal could possess.
Yet beneath those beautiful eyes, the gaze was predatory, sending a chill crawling through Chu Feng's entire body.
"Elder, what do you mean? This junior does not understand," Chu Feng asked.
"This god's body has never been shown to anyone. You're the first, boy."
"But this god showed herself to you on purpose. Do you know why?"
The golden-haired woman asked.
"Um…" Chu Feng didn't know how to answer. It felt like a trap.
"Because this god thinks you really are quite something."
"Consider it a reward for you — before you die."
The golden-haired woman's smile grew even more alluring.
But a wave of ice washed through Chu Feng's body as he sensed an overwhelmingly powerful killing intent.
"A malicious creature," the Divine Deer's voice rang out. She too had sensed that this golden-haired woman was no opportunity — she was a threat.
Sacred light emanated from within Chu Feng's body as the Divine Deer made her move, attempting to carry Chu Feng away from this place.
"Looking to die."
Simultaneously, the power of a barrier materialized beside Chu Feng. Egg Egg was making her move as well, wanting to emerge and confront this golden-haired woman.
But no matter what she tried, she could not form a barrier gate.
"Chu Feng, we're in trouble," the Divine Deer's voice cried out again, shocked to discover that her power had been rendered unusable.
"My, my — quite a few treasures on you, aren't there."
