The three of them walked together down the wide road leading into the capital's inner city.
Turning her head, Fen Cheng asked "Hmm.. Lady Zijin, you had Rui Clan's token with you, right? Why did you show that when the guards asked you?"
With a soft sigh, Yan Zijin replied "I lost my storage ring."
Fen Cheng pouted her lips "I see, that sucks..."
Zhao Tian walked silently at her side while Wei Ruyin walked a half-step behind them, observing the capital around her with quiet wonder.
Eventually, the wide road curved into a great square.
At the far end of the square, the towering gates of the Rui Clan's main estate stood.
Tall, spiraling towers rose toward the sky, connected by bridges lined with golden vine lanterns.
Waterfalls fed from distant mountains flowed through the estate.
Above the gates, a great sigil floated in mid-air, the insignia of the Rui Clan: a radiant sun crowned by moonlight.
