The next morning, a magnificent city bathed in the morning sun came into view.
Unlike the rough, solid construction of Black Stone Castle, Red Leaf City was more exquisite and beautiful. The city walls were built from a light red stone that gave off a warm luster in the sunlight.
The surrounding area was lined with maple trees. Although it was not yet late autumn, the lush green foliage was a beautiful sight in its own right.
Raylo patted Baofeng's neck.
Baofeng let out a low cry and began to descend slowly.
Lookouts on the arrow towers lining the castle's perimeter had long since spotted them, and the sound of a Horn echoed from the distance.
Before Baofeng even landed, the city gates swung open, and a group of people hurried out to welcome them.
Leading them was Gao Wen. He wore a brand-new, crimson aristocratic suit with his family crest pinned to his chest. He looked radiant and carried himself with a newfound composure.
"Raylo! You're finally here!"
