Elfie and Yun Xue arrived at a residential block where many of the Zhu Family disciples lived. The latter asked with spiritual communication, "This place is so shabby for a prominent family person to live, right? It is hard to imagine they mingled with someone from the lower part of the food chain."
Elfie replied, "The power chain is simple. The top operates and monopolizes the lower levels. The lower levels benefit if they are of use to the top order. They have been trained for generations to look at the top brass as gods. This is why the Zhu Family has been so stable. They do not allow anyone else to work with their family and vice versa."
Yun Xue raised her brow and said, "I once read in a book that a lone tree attracts more wind than the forest. However, the Zhu Family has a seven-century history. They must have been very tedious and cunning to reach this level."
