Their eyes met, each wearing a different expression.
Jiang Feng looked rather tense. A divine beast at the sixth level of the True God Realm was considered an expert even among divine beasts. Such a divine beast was bound to be proud, and when facing a divine being—especially one whose cultivation was lower than its own—it would likely feel even more superior.
Yet Jiang Feng did not sense even a trace of arrogance in the Snow Velvet Cloud Leopard's expression.
On the contrary, its gaze held more than a hint of warmth.
Rather than warmth, though, it was better described as the sympathy of those sharing the same affliction.
After they stared at each other for a full ten breaths, the Snow Velvet Cloud Leopard spoke:
"Just came in?"
The weight in Jiang Feng's heart eased. He nodded. "Senior, were you trapped here as well?"
The Snow Velvet Cloud Leopard nodded. "I've been trapped here for a long time. Don't worry, the competition here isn't as brutal as it is outside."
"The people and beasts trapped here are all quite friendly."
Jiang Feng did not completely let down his guard. At the same time, he caught the implication behind the Snow Velvet Cloud Leopard's words: there seemed to be quite a few people trapped here.
Jiang Feng asked, "Senior, may I ask how many people and beasts there are here in total?"
The Snow Velvet Cloud Leopard descended from the air and walked up to Jiang Feng. Though it tried its utmost to restrain its aura, its enormous body still brought Jiang Feng some pressure.
Of course, Jiang Feng was not afraid of the Snow Velvet Cloud Leopard. With his strength, barring any accidents, the Snow Velvet Cloud Leopard should not be his match.
Still, he had to remain cautious.
