"This Ancient Treasure Pavilion is not open to just anyone. You must obtain a joint invitation from those three factions, and even a Dou Zun expert may not necessarily be qualified to possess one...!"
Old Yao chuckled. An invitation that even Dou Zun experts could not obtain was no difficulty for him. Not to mention that he was now a Dou Sheng, even if he were not, his alchemy skills alone qualified him to be a distinguished guest here.
As he spoke, Old Yao flicked his finger, sending a jade invitation engraved with three strange runes toward one of the elders.
The elder caught the invitation and examined it briefly. His gaze then turned toward the two men, and with a wave of his hand, five black cloaks appeared.
"Please!"
"Wealth should not be displayed. None of those able to enter this place are simple people. These are specially made by the three factions and can block others' prying..." As he spoke, Old Yao took a cloak and wrapped himself within it, concealing even his face.
Since Old Yao had said so, Xiao Heng and the other three naturally followed suit.
Afterward, the five entered the pavilion. There was nothing particularly special about it, nor anything as mysterious as Xiao Heng had imagined. Still, this place was clearly not so simple; they simply had not seen its true nature yet.
"Please follow me...!"
The moment they entered, a gray-robed elder emerged from the side and gestured to them. His tone was not particularly respectful. After speaking, he turned and headed deeper into the pavilion on his own.
Old Yao followed with practiced ease. This was not his first time here, though he had mostly come as an accompaniment in the past. This time, however, he had come for the goods.
