Hongyang Hall.
This is the grandest palace of the Hongyang Empire, the core of the Imperial City, where Emperor Yang Yun holds court to meet with his officials and deal with government affairs.
It is now night, with clouds obscuring the moon and no stars shining, engulfing everything in darkness.
The darker the skies, the stricter the guard within the Imperial Palace, with swarms of forbidding guards patrolling the grounds, all masters of Inner Strength.
Especially in front of Hongyang Hall, the security is the most tight and the number of guards is the greatest, all focused and vigilant, watching every corner closely.
Contrastingly, inside Hongyang Hall it is still as bright as day with the lights burning clear and bright.
It has already reached the hour of Hai, but Emperor Yang Yun is still attending to state affairs within Hongyang Hall.
Memorials are piled up like mountains.
