Dustan City

As the carriage approached the imposing gates of Dustan City, the atmosphere shifted. The guards stationed at the gates moved with practiced precision, standing at attention as the carriage slowed to a halt. Their armor glinted in the sunlight, a testament to their unwavering vigilance.

As the gates creaked open, a group of guards, armed and vigilant, stepped forward, their purpose clear: to inspect the approaching carriage. They approached with a sense of authority, their eyes scanning the carriage meticulously, ready to carry out their duty.

However, just as the guards were about to request the carriage to stop, the window on the carriage's side slid open, revealing a figure within. It was Lu Jin, his presence instantly recognizable. The guards' demeanor shifted immediately, their stern expressions melting into apologetic ones as they recognized the young master of the Jin family.
