Xie Zongyuan asked this question, and Liu Tao's gaze followed closely, looking over as well.
Zhang Yan smiled freely and said, "We cultivate for immortality, which is to defy the heavens. Tribulations and dangers are but trials. Now that a convenient path lies ahead, how could we not take it?"
Xie Zongyuan was overjoyed and said, "Excellent! Brother Zhang is straightforward; let's agree on it then."
Liu Tao interjected, "However, entering the Sea Eye Demon Cave requires some deliberation, and haste is inadvisable. Preparation is necessary. For instance, the female immortal of Shouming Palace would not let you go without reason; each person must pay five hundred Spiritual Shells."
Xie Zongyuan waved his hand dismissively and said, "A mere sum; no need to concern yourselves, I'll handle it as your junior brother."
