Jiangdu City, City God Street.
As the Lunar Heavenly Patrol Ceremony spread throughout the Three Realms.
By the rites of the Three Realms, deities such as City Gods, who governed the underworld of a given region, had to bow and kowtow in welcome of the Lunar Star Lord's carriage.
At this moment, everyone on City God Street—from the Jiangdu City God to the underworld soldiers on duty—was kneeling in perfect unison, robes pressed to the ground and heads lowered.
Watching the heavenly moon travel westward and vanish beyond the sea of clouds.
Zhao Wuya knelt before the City God Hall, still not daring to rise.
After all, until the ceremony was over, the gods of the Three Realms could not move even an inch. Any offense would cost them a hundred years of merit, and that would hardly be worth it.
"Strange. I still can't figure it out. Why was this Lunar Heavenly Patrol Ceremony suddenly being held out of the blue?"
Hu Sanniang's muttering came from behind him.
Zhao Wuya's forehead rested against the icy stone tiles, while his face remained dark and gloomy.
"Sanniang..."
"I'm here!" Hu Sanniang hurriedly answered.
"This Moon Goddess truly lived up to her reputation—she merely patrolled the heavens, yet we could only crawl on the ground. Even moving was a sin."
"Th-this..." Hu Sanniang forced a laugh and quietly advised, "At a time like this, I ask that you watch your words, my lord."
Yet Zhao Wuya snorted, smiling without smiling. "The great gods of the Heavenly Court truly make one yearn for them. What a pity. Even if you and I exhausted lifetime after lifetime, we still couldn't climb to such heights."
Hu Sanniang's expression changed again and again. For a moment, she did not dare respond.
She knew better than anyone
