"You can proceed by paying the toll fee," he continued. "It's one million high-grade divine stones."
Nantian Fengyu frowned, voicing her disapproval. "That's exorbitant! You are clearly robbing us!"
The old man's gaze met hers, and he spoke nonchalantly, "You are free to leave if you wish."
Just as Nantian Fengyu was about to retort, Yun Lintian interjected.
"No problem," he said with a smile, tossing a storage ring towards the old man.
The old man cast a satisfied glance at the pile of divine stones within the ring. "You may enter. Remember to conduct yourselves with propriety. This realm doesn't tolerate reckless behavior."
