“We believe you, Mr. Chance,” said Hamish hastily.
Then he, Misho, and a dozen other cultivators went to search for a place to rest.
Meanwhile, Igor's group brought Jared, Cloud, and Feenix to the tallest three-story building right in the middle of Creston Sect.
While Igor could enter the place, Jared's group was stopped.
Igor quickly clarified, “We're together, and we're here to meet Mr. Solavar.”
“I'm sorry, Mr. Lothian, but these people are human cultivators. They need the token from one of the major sects on Demonia Mountain to be granted access,” replied the guard politely. “They aren't Demonic Cultivators, so if you want to bring them in, they'll have to present the tokens. That is the rule.”
“There's a rule about that?” Igor was taken aback.
“Yes, that is the new rule Mr. Solavar established. If any of you can bring in anyone you want casually, there will be issues.”
Upon hearing that, Igor understood what was going on. Mr. Solavar is likely afraid that the foreign cultivators will bribe other demonic sects to bring them into the Celestial Battlefield. If that happens and people are pocketing benefits, things will get messy for Creston Sect. I bet that's why Mr. Solavar announced this new rule. Demonic Cultivators and human cultivators rarely interact with each other, so it's natural the guard thinks I was bribed by Jared's group.
Jared understood what Creston Sect meant. He said, “We'll just not enter then, Mr. Lothian. As for the matter of gaining entry into the Celestial Battlefield, you don't need to push too hard for it. We'll simply pay for the entry fee if necessary.”
After all, plenty of resources were kept in Jared's Storage Ring at that moment. He had acquired an abundance of mystical herbs from Jubilante back in Yellow Blue City.
Of course, he had plenty of spirit coins, too. Cloud was a scion, so he had even more spirit coins than Jared.
“Very well, then. I'll have Rosie and Tony accompany you and show you around. I'm going to go ahead and get things straightened out,” said Igor.
He had Rosetta and Dalton stay with Jared because they had a higher status in the Demonic Cultivators' territory.
