"Don't give me a chance, hmph."

Old Ding knew him well; he must have felt bad after being so thoroughly humiliated, so he didn't say much.

...

After this incident, Yin Tiantian never went out alone again; she stayed on the spaceship to focus on her cultivation.

Their journey thereafter went smoothly, and they finally arrived at Feihong City, the location of Lingyan Pavilion.

Feihong City is the most magnificent city Qin Feng has ever seen. Its towering walls resemble a giant dragon coiling around it, and the marks on them reveal the city's long history.

"Finally, we've arrived. I, Chen Mengying, am finally back."

Shen Mengying was in high spirits, and Elder Lin and Elder Wu were also in high spirits, as they had been following Shen Mengying and hadn't been back for a long time.

"Does this entire city belong to Lingyan Pavilion?" Qin Feng asked.

If such a massive city were to belong entirely to Lingyan Pavilion, then Lingyan Pavilion's strength would not be underestimated.

"No, when our Lingyan Pavilion was still weak, we formed an alliance with other forces to protect ourselves. We chose this city to watch over and help each other, and then we slowly developed. Now we still have a good relationship with them."

Qin Feng nodded, indicating his understanding; smaller forces have their own ways of surviving and developing.

Shen Mengying tried to lead them into the city, but they were stopped by the guards.

"Please show your identity token. If you are not a resident of the city, you need to pay ten spirit stones."

"It's so expensive."

Xiao Fan couldn't help but say something.

The guard, expressionless, said to them, "These are the rules, please cooperate."

Shen Mengying raised an eyebrow.

"When did the rule change so that you have to pay ten spirit stones to enter the city? Wasn't it one before?"
