Inside Hong Lin city, a large circular building with multiple smaller buildings stood. Its roof was painted red, while its walls were white. Looking at it, one could tell that it was made from Hong Lin tree wood, while the paint was made from the leaves of the tree.

At the front of it, a twin towered gate was built, at the top of which a board hung that mentioned the name of the building.

'Hong Lin Royal Palace'

There were hundreds of people entering and exiting the palace and guards stood at the sides, observing each and every person. There were both commoners and cultivators mixed into the crowd and all of them seemed to be following the proper etiquette.

Within this crowd of people, a couple of men wearing Daoist robes were also walking. They kept a calm expression on their faces and entered the gate. The guards at the gate observed them like all others and spirit sense spread over them.

After a couple of seconds, the guards nodded and let them in.

"Ugh, do we really need to do all this? Following the rules like commoners, this is humiliating." One of the men said in a low voice.

"Master named you Dai Heng so that you could have some perseverance while also being patient. Why don't you follow his wishes?" The other man replied.

"But senior brother, why do we have to be like this? We are at the Nascent Soul realm. If anything, all of them should bow to us when we are here." The man named Dai Heng asked.

"Master sent you out so that you could experience the world better. Just because you are a Nascent Soul realm cultivator does not mean that you can just exert your might and suppress others.

There is a place and timing for everything. Doing that here would bring you no benefits and you will only lose face for Master and yourself." The senior brother replied.

"Fine… I won't…" Dai Heng replied.
