Two hundred forty. Difficult assessment

The garden, as bright as day, bustled with guests who weaved through the banquet.

They gathered around, engaged in constant conversations and laughter, with a few ladies in formal attire. Were it not for the predominance of black-tie attire among the guests, the scene could have been mistaken for a typical evening dance.

Lu Li's gaze swept over the figures, first landing on the graceful and ample ladies. Having not found the person he was looking for, he then turned his attention to the men.

From his brief interaction with Baron Joseph, it was clear that the baron could completely disguise herself in men's clothing among the guests.

Perhaps she was even mingling among the guests with a fake beard, laughing and talking.

However, Lu Li did not see her.

Most of the guests at the dinner were exorcists, perhaps numbering over a hundred, with a steady stream of newcomers entering the estate through the main entrance.
