"Snakes have their paths, rats have their ways. I understand that one needs to pay a toll to pass this stage of the Ancient Road to Heaven..."
Ye Yun smiled faintly, his expression as calm and composed as ever.
"You're a straightforward person." The short old man chuckled, tapping the ash from his pipe. "Given that you've cultivated to the Divine Monarch Realm, you must possess substantial wealth. If you can't produce anything decent, my pipe isn't just for show."
"Are you threatening me?" Ye Yun's eyes flickered as he asked with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.
"A threat? Not exactly. Although I'm a minor realm higher than you, it would still be quite difficult to fight you to the death. However, this is the Ancient Road to Heaven..." A smug smile appeared on the short old man's face, and he gestured downwards with his pipe. "In this place, you're surely aware of a Formation, right?"
Hearing this, Ye Yun nodded with a smile.
