...
At the Longevity Wine House, the short-clad guards routinely patrolled the streets.
Those of the Lower Seed People were not allowed to gather here on this street.
Suddenly, an object wrapped in brightly colored leather appeared without warning at the top of the stairs, leaking copious amounts of pus and blood.
The guards opened the leather, only to find a corpse tucked inside, its eyes wide open in shock and horror.
"Yan Chao, young master!!!"
A guard recognized him at first glance and immediately cried out in alarm.
This shout disturbed the peaceful slumber of the entire Longevity Wine House, thinking it was an enemy attack, the guards were extremely nervous and deployed in full force, arranging themselves into a martial formation in front of the mansion's gates.
"Young master Yan Chao is dead… his heart has been gouged out!"
"Who could be so audacious, showing no regard for us Longevity Envoys at all?"
"This is a declaration of war to our entire Longevity Mansion!"
