Meanwhile, within Li Family Clan territory, Yu Qiuyan's flying carriage drew countless gazes as it glided overhead.
"We're here!" Li Xiang announced cheerfully as she guided the carriage down, landing it directly outside the Patriarch's main residence.
The Li Family Clan lay nestled between two towering mountains, its vast grounds bathed in deep greens and shimmering jade. Emerald adorned nearly everything—clothing, jewelry, buildings, even the decorative tiles beneath one's feet. Xiao Fang had learned from Li Lian that the clan owned a massive emerald mine and was the largest distributor of jade in the entire province. Subsidiary clans often paid tribute in raw emeralds, and it showed.
The moment the carriage appeared in the sky, the city erupted.
"Woah—look at that!"
"Who does it belong to?"
"Isn't flying only possible for Heavenly Realm cultivators?"
"Could they be from the Heavenly Fate Sect?"
"Then why would someone like that come here…?"
