He has a group of assistants, one being a judge who holds a brush and a book in his hands. That book contains records of all souls, including the allotted death dates for the living. When someones life ends, he/she will be brought to the face of Yan Luo to wait for the judge. It's Bullheads and Horsefaces that will bring the spirit to the judge.
