Jade Capital was the most prosperous city in the western part of the Boundless Continent. It was close to Zhou River and had convenient transportation. There was a Dharma Temple, Hunter's Guild, Sky Beast Harbor, and Sea Dock. It was also the place where doctors and scholars from all over the country gathered.
The local agricultural and commercial industries were flourishing. Every day, tens of thousands of foreigners would come here. This was also the capital of the strong. Magicians, warriors, and even summoners, which were rare on the continent, would appear in this area.
Yun Sheng and Xiao Hei brought the unconscious Yun Canghai to Jade Capital seven or eight days later.
She didn't know that a few days before she reached Jade Capital, Ye Beiming was ordered to head to various places in Zhou State to begin his journey to capture the Beast Blood Cloud. Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming had unfortunately brushed past each other.
It was also from then onwards that Ye Beiming, who had regained his sight, became known as War God Zhou Wu. Yun Sheng, on the other hand, rose rapidly with multiple identities. The love and hate between the two of them had just begun, but that was a story for another time.
To enter Jade Capital, one had to pay a silver coin to enter the city.
Seeing that Yun Sheng, who was only a little girl, was actually driving a carriage into the city, a few city guards couldn't help but go forward to check.
Just as they lifted the curtain, a black dog scuttled out.
That black dog had short black fur, and its neck was tilted to the right comically. However, none of the city guards dared to underestimate this black dog.
The black dog seemed to have a part of the Wolf Mastiff's bloodline. Its skin was shiny, as if it had been waxed. Its body was about the size of a lamb, and its limbs were strong and powerful. Once it saw a stranger, it revealed its sharp teeth and looked rather ferocious.
That was Xiao Hei. After Xiao Hei grew a piece of the Wind Maggot Beast's meat, its body shape changed.
Yun Sheng still couldn't tell its rank, but Xiao Hei was much stronger than before. It looked like it could compete with a hunting dog or even a mastiff.
"Brothers, my father is in the carriage. He's from the Jade Capital, but because he contracted a terrible disease, he can't be exposed to the wind." Yun Sheng looked worried. Along the way, she had put in a lot of effort to take care of Yun Canghai.
The most troublesome thing about a "vegetative state" was not the daily management, but the inability to eat. If this continued, even a strong elephant would gradually weaken.
Since the Boundless World didn't have the modern equipment to deliver nutrient fluids, Yun Sheng could only rely on a straw to feed Yun Canghai some expensive ginseng soup. She had spent more than half of the gold coins she obtained from the bounty of the magical beasts.
Even so, Yun Canghai was still losing weight day by day.
It had only been seven or eight days, but Yun Canghai was already skin and bones. Yun Sheng couldn't help but feel sad when she saw it.
She rushed to the Jade Capital without rest, hoping to reach the General's residence as soon as possible to find a way to save her father.
"He's a patient. What kind of disease did he contract? If it's a contagious disease, he's not allowed to enter the city." A few soldiers were in a difficult position.
The Jade Capital was a big city and also the capital of a country. Countless people came and went every day.
To prevent epidemics from entering the city, there were special rules in the city. Anyone with a contagious disease was not allowed to enter.
"My father's disease isn't contagious. It's a rare coma. We're here to seek refuge with our relatives. Brothers, please do us a favor and let us in? "Yun Sheng was a little anxious. She didn't expect the Jade Capital to have such rules.
"Young lady, it's not that we don't want to accommodate, but if the higher-ups blame us, we'll lose our heads. How about this, one of us will go in first and leave the carriage at the city gate. When you find your relative in the city, ask him to bring the certificate of a doctor or above in the city before coming to pick up your father. "The city guard saw that Yun Sheng was young and her clothes were old and tattered. When he saw that she was taking care of her relative alone, he couldn't help but feel pity for her and pointed out the right path for her.
Yun Sheng thanked the city guard. After settling the carriage, she ordered Xiao Hei to watch over the carriage.
She then asked the passersby for the location of the Martial Saint General's residence and sprinted over.
The Jade Capital was huge. Yun Sheng heard that the General's residence was located in Wuning Alley. That area was also where the residences of military officials of rank five and above were concentrated.
Yun Sheng only knew that Yun Canghai was from the General's residence, but she didn't know anything about the Martial Saint General's residence.
When she was in Banana Leaf Village, Yun Sheng roughly knew about martial artists because she became the village's big sister later on. Martial artists were the same as magicians and were divided into different ranks.
For example, Lei Hu of Banana Leaf Village was only a beginner martial artist. As for Ding Mao of Fire Cliff Village, he was a martial master. From beginner to higher ranks, martial artists were: martial artist, martial artist, martial artist, martial artist, martial artist, martial artist, martial artist, martial artist, martial artist, martial artist, martial artist.
The Yun Family was called the Martial Saint General's residence because there were two Martial Saints in the Yun Family. Besides that, Yun Canghai's father, who was also Yun Sheng's grandfather, was also a Martial Saint.
A Martial Saint was equivalent to a Saint-level Guardian King among magicians. In the entire Zhou State, there were no more than three Martial Saints. Among them, Old General Yun had been a Martial Saint for the longest time.
Therefore, to the citizens of Zhou State, the Martial Saint General was like the Big Dipper.
Yun Sheng had never seen this legendary grandfather of hers before. But just by standing outside the Martial Saint General's residence, she could feel a sinister aura.
Outside the Martial Saint General's residence, there were two majestic stone lions made of red iron standing on both sides of the gate. Two dignified guards were guarding the gate. Just the guards were two martial artists.
Only the General's Residence would use a Martial Master as a guard.
One had to know that in other cities, Martial Masters could also independently become instructors in their dojos.
Yun Sheng was just about to step forward when she suddenly heard the door open. A luxuriously dressed boy walked out of the General's residence with a few ferocious Blood Claw Wolves.
The Great Zhou Dynasty revered martial arts, and in the manors of the fifth rank officials, besides having guards, some of the nobles and officials even had their own Magical Beast Breeding Grounds, which were used to raise various ferocious Magical Beasts. In addition to allowing the disciples of the clan to practice martial arts, during the annual Spring and Autumn Hunt, they could also bring the Magical Beasts to hunt.
The Jade Capital at the end of the fifth month already had the scorching heat of early summer.
The boy who came out was about two to three years older than Yun Sheng. His facial features were not bad and his posture was agile. It was obvious that he had been practicing martial arts since he was young.
"Good morning, Young Master. Where are you going with the magical beasts?" The guards bowed respectfully.
The boy who came out was Old General Yun's widowed third daughter, Yun Cangxue's late husband, Tang Yu. Yun Cangxue's husband was originally Yun Bahe's right-hand man. Who would have thought that he would unfortunately lose his life in the chaos at the border?
Yun Cangxue was also known for her crafty temper. She did not get along well with her mother-in-law, so she brought her only son, Tang Yu, back to the General's residence.
Yun Canghai did not have any grandchildren. Tang Yu was also very clever. At a young age, he had already passed the martial arts examination and was very much favored by Yun Canghai.
"We saw that the two Blood Claw Wolf pups we just bought were bored, so we brought them out for a walk." Tang Yu chased the wolf pups out after he finished speaking.
Who would have thought that the wolf pups had just entered the residence and were still wild? Just as they walked out of the residence, they saw Yun Sheng standing not far from the entrance. They opened their mouths and pounced towards Yun Sheng.
