The King of Zhen Country, Xiao Hongda, was the paternal half-brother of the national ruler and bore the distinct facial features of the Xiao Family: arched eyebrows, peach blossom eyes, a full forehead, and a chubby face that glowed with health. He was quite the picture of affluence. He was clad in shining armor that glittered brilliantly, with every individual golden fish scale glistening with rainbow hues in the sunlight; it seemed that even snapping off a single piece would be worth a fortune.
Although he was also a great cultivator at the Nascent Soul Realm and held the rank of general in Zhen Country—typical of a respected elder backed by a noble family—it was clear from his wealthy and elegant appearance that one should not expect him to actually don armors this valuable and engage in combat himself.
