In the northeastern Chaos Star Domain, several thousand li from Ten Thousand Demons City, lay a barren, seldom-visited mountain range within the city's territory.
Under the hazy moonlight.
A figure sped through the towering mountains, arrived at the foot of a precipitous peak, and began climbing.
Only when he reached halfway up the mountain and faintly heard the murmur of flowing water ahead did the figure slowly stop.
At that moment, the handsome, slender young man, dressed in a white brocade robe adorned with golden patterns.
Gently parted the concealing shrubs before him, revealing a mountain spring as clear as a mirror.
Ripples spread across the spring's surface, scattering the reflections in the water.
By the light of the moon, Gu Chenfeng looked toward the source of the ripples.
"Splash..."
A graceful figure broke the surface. Her soaking black hair clung to her snow-white neck and smooth back, and droplets rolled down the exquisite rises and falls of her curves.
Amid the rippling water, her full curves were clearly visible. Through the hazy mist, she exuded a silent allure, like a jade enchantress painstakingly sculpted beneath the moon.
What a blood-stirring picture of a beauty emerging from her bath beneath the moon.
"Gulp!"
Gu Chenfeng tightened his grip slightly on the Jade Pendant. He had never expected that, after following its signal and racing thousands of li.
He would ultimately witness such a "heart-stopping" scene.
Gu Chenfeng carefully studied her from head to toe, confirming that this was Ji Yun without her clothes on.
He reached out and stirred the shrubs, making some noise.
"Who's there?"
A lovely voice cried out from the spring like a startled fawn. She leaped from the water and swiftly draped a thin gauze garment around herself.
"Don't be alarmed, Princess. It's me, Chen Feng."
