"Clip-clop, clip-clop," the sound of horse hooves gradually slowed as Li Huowang, holding the reins, lifted his head to gaze at the massive and oppressive city walls before him.
After a full day's journey, he had finally arrived at Yinling City.
He had been here before, it was here that with Hong Da's introduction he had joined the Astrological Bureau; this city was large, arguably the most prosperous in the whole Jiangnan region aside from the Capital City.
It was now dusk, and the massive city gates were creaking slowly closed. Buddha Jade Furnace pulled on the reins, urging the remaining tall horses forward, charging directly into the fortified city.
The large horse reared up high, its two front hooves heavily striking the city gates, forcibly bursting through the slowly closing doors. "Astrological Bureau on duty! Everyone get out of the way!"
Li Huowang reached out to tug at the tentacle of Li Sui behind him, gave the reins a shake, and hurried after her.
