After finishing the registration, the middle-aged man gave Li Qiye a wooden badge to hang by his waist and said: “Your Majesty, Great Desolate Mountain is at the very south of this mountain range. Just keep heading south and you’ll see it, the highest peak of that place. The prison will be on the opposite side.”

He added: “Please don’t lose the badge, your Majesty, it will let you go freely in this region.”

Strangely enough, this man didn’t bother confirming Li Qiye’s identity, only telling him to not lose the badge. This was indeed an interesting place.

Li Qiye smiled and said goodbye to the man before entering Nine-linked Mountains. He took one look at the plaque before leaving the entrance, amused.

There...
