[Four wonders shock the world, and ten ancient towns in Kyoto.]
This is a nursery rhyme that was widely spread back then.
Among them, Jugu refers to the ten ancient clans that have ruled Kyoto for countless days and moons.
No matter how dynasties change, no matter how the world changes, no one can shake the dominance of the ten ancient tribes in Kyoto.
This is why in ancient times, every time the four unique cooking gods appeared in the world, the ten ancient tribes would jointly attack the four unique skills.
Because in that era, only the Four Ultimates could shake their status.
However, in addition to this nursery rhyme, there is another sentence that is always ignored, or few people dare to spread it.
[Shengyang is divided into two halves, one half has the surname Ximen.]
Throughout the ages, among the nine major districts in Kyoto, Shengyang District has been the undisputed central district.
The family that rules this area is basically the uncrowned king apart from the ancient royal family.
Over the thousands of years of Yan Kingdom's history, this area has been under the control of the Ximen family for most of the time!
This is enough to show the terrifying dominance of the Ximen family.
Because the mysterious Xuanyuan family does not participate in these rankings, it is logical that the Ximen family has become the number one ancient family today.
However, after the catastrophe that year, the Holy Temple quietly rose in Kyoto while the Ximen family and other ancient clans were greatly weakened.
The Ximen family also knew that the rise of the temple could not be stopped, so they simply gave up half of the control of the Shengyang District.
But the other half still fell into the Ximen family.
This is one of the reasons why the Temple has always regarded the Simon family as a thorn in its side.
At the same time, the Ximen family had a secret plan.
They divided the entire family into internal and external clans.
The inner clan is responsible for maintaining the family's orthodoxy and occupying the family's management position.
Foreigners have infiltrated into the temple and control part of the temple's say in many institutions.
However, due to Ye Hong's several unlucky actions and the efforts of Qin Zhengyan and others, the Ximen foreigners' voice in the temple became weaker and weaker.
Now in the temple, the Ximen foreigners can only survive.
At the same time, with the founder of the Ximen family, the legendary [Immortal Eagle] - [Ximen Qingcang] unconscious, the two groups inside and outside the Ximen family were leaderless, but this started a chaotic situation that lasted for many months.
Among them, the inner clan, with the support of many old people, maintained the strategy of wooing the temple, and the user's original heir, Ximen Qing, became the so-called pro-holy sect.
The young people of the foreign race who were kicked out of the temple were hostile to the temple.
He also wooed another ancient clan, the Shangguan family, and cultivated Ximen Hongjie, a descendant of a side clan, as a contender for the successor, and became an anti-holy sect that opposed the pro-holy party.
The internal and external races instantly became two major factions, fighting endlessly.
But even so, the strength of the Ximen family can still be proud of all the families in Kyoto.
The reason why this is possible is because of the Ximen family’s [sub-family model].
Tracing back the history of the birth and rise of various ancient clans in the Yan Kingdom, we can find that the Ximen family was one of the first families to use the banner of the ancient clan.
Relying on the huge appeal and influence accumulated among the ancient ethnic groups, the Ximen family is respected and admired by all major ancient ethnic groups.
In the past countless years, many [sub-tribes] have developed.
These sub-tribes come from all over the country and maintain almost a master-servant relationship with the Ximen family.
That is to say, the Ximen family protects these sub-clan with foreign surnames, and the sub-clan regularly pay tribute to the Ximen family.
Relying on this blood-sucking model, the Ximen family not only did not decline after the catastrophe, but also still firmly maintained its dominance among the ancient ethnic groups!
