Chapter 3720 Rules Are Rules
Alastair nodded in agreement, and then he and Kai continued their journey southward.
Not long after that, Alastair halted, surveying their surroundings. With a wave of his hand, a gust of wind swept through, whisking away all the accumulated snow on the ground.
After the snow was blown away, a cave was startlingly revealed. However, this cave was quite small, requiring one to stoop to enter.
Alastair gestured toward the cave and said, “Once you enter this cave, it leads directly to the outer court of Lunarius Palace. This place is incredibly secluded and unknown to many, offering a great deal of safety. All this while, I’ve been making my money from this cave…”
Kai glanced at the cave and scoffed. “You’ve probably killed many in this cave, haven’t you?”
Kai could distinctly feel the waves of deathly aura emanating from within the cave.
Alastair was taken aback, quickly clarifying, “Sir, please don’t misunderstand. Even though I’ve taken lives in this cave before, I would never dare to harbor any ill intentions toward you.”
“Even if you made a move, it would be utterly pointless!” With a casual smile, Kai then disappeared into the cave.
Stunned for a moment, Alastair then proceeded to follow inside.
The cave was shrouded in darkness, and Kai had lost track of how long he’d been walking. Suddenly, a light appeared before his eyes.
When Kai emerged from the cave, he found himself facing a scene shrouded in mist. Within this haze, a palace stood.
“We’re now at the outer circle of Lunarius Palace. I can only take you this far. If you want to get inside Lunarius Palace, you’ll have to figure it out on your own,” Alastair said with utmost caution.
“All right, this is far enough. You don’t need to worry about the rest!” Kai nodded and headed toward the outer court of Lunarius Palace.
From a distance, Kai observed the outer court, guarded by a few female cultivators. Each of these women was slender and elegant, their beauty stirring an undeniable urge in anyone who caught a glimpse of them.
Outside the entrance of the outer court of Lunarius Palace, there were a few male cultivators who seemed to be conversing with several female cultivators.
These few male cultivators were barred from entry, unable to get in.
Judging by the ragged clothing of those male cultivators, it seemed they had found their own way to Lunarius Palace. It was apparent that they had not had an easy journey.
However, the cultivators who ventured up the mountain on their own were not permitted to enter Lunarius Palace.
Only those who registered at the reception and were escorted up by someone from Lunarius Palace were permitted to enter.
Soon, another group of people was seen heading toward the outer court of Lunarius Palace.
However, this time, it was Yuliya who led the team, followed by a dozen male cultivators.
Keiran among them.
“Ms. Liemann, you’ve arrived…” A female cultivator from Lunarius Palace caught sight of Yuliya and hurriedly opened the door to welcome her.
Yuliya gave a slight nod and turned her attention to the few raggedly dressed cultivators standing outside the door. A frown creased her brows as she remarked, “Why are there so many people showing up uninvited at Lunarius Palace today? They just never learn!”
After speaking, Yuliya instructed all the cultivators she had brought with her to enter the outer court. Then, she turned to the poorly dressed cultivators and said, “Those of you who came to Lunarius Palace on your own, it’s impossible for you to get in. You should all go back…”
“We’ve endured countless hardships to find this place and lost many on the journey. Please, allow us entry.”
“Yes. If we head back like this, we’re definitely not going to make it halfway. Let’s just go in.”
“All we are seeking is a partner. We are willing to put in the effort for the sake of Lunarius Palace!”
Several cultivators were desperately pleading with Yuliya. Some were even on the verge of kneeling down.
Yuliya gazed at these cultivators, letting out a long sigh before saying, “Lunarius Palace abides by its own rules. If we were to let you all in, wouldn’t that break the precedent? Then anyone can enter Lunarius Palace as they wish.”
