When the clock struck four in the morning,
Luoyang King Zhou Wenye, dressed in opulent but obese attire resembling a pig, was leisurely seated on a sedan chair that had come from nowhere.
Two guards, tall as towers and clad in Mystic Armor, lifted him high and paraded through the streets.
A golden copper coin engraved with the seal script "Life Trading Coin" was hanging on his jade belt at his waist, emitting a golden glow that made all the followers dare not look up casually.
Among them were Dao General Wei Anning, "Ghost Matchmaker" Lady Gao, and five Daoist Soldiers, totaling seven people, each marked with a blood-red brand on their tongues.
Originally, there were thirty-six Daoist Soldiers in the Prince Mansion, each assigned to guard different individuals within the mansion.
But during the grand ceremony, twenty were called back and positioned in every corner of Bird Beak Slope; after entering the Deceit Realm, they naturally dispersed throughout "Luoyang City."
