Inside Mudan City.
Xie Jue bought a mansion left vacant after a wealthy merchant relocated. Once settled, he took the Shadow Guards to the shrine. The shrine was some distance from the Royal Palace. On that day, he destroyed the shrine within the palace, yet this pagoda remained standing tall. After Sannan's annihilation, the number of people coming to pray kept increasing.
In the chaos of war and bloodshed, perhaps only the intangible gods could provide a shred of strength and courage. Therefore, those citizens who hadn't relocated preferred to visit the Priest.
This shrine outside the palace was to offer blessings and sacrifices for the common people, different from the one inside the palace. It was the faith of the people.
