The carriage cut across the skies, eventually gliding down over a sprawling estate that seemed to stretch endlessly across the land.
The moment the protective formation opened with a ripple of golden light, the Bai Clan manor revealed itself.
The sheer grandeur of it made Jin Yuelin's breath catch in her throat.

She had grown up in pain, confined to a courtyard no larger than a corner of this estate.
For her, the Bai Clan's main residence was like a world from a fairy tale.
