Sonorous Words
Chu Xingyun's first lecture had received the full support of 300,000 students, while the others laughed at him. It did not have much effect on the situation in the 18 Ancient Cities. Instead, it became more serious.
Under such circumstances, it was natural for everyone to be worried.
Xia Qingcheng frowned slightly and shifted her gaze. She saw that Chu Xingyun's eyes were calm and tranquil. On his devilishly handsome face, there was a trace of confidence and certainty. He had an otherworldly temperament.
Originally, she wanted to ask more questions, but for some reason, she could not speak. A faint smile appeared on her lips, and she quietly retreated to the side.
Everyone landed on the ground one after another. Chu Xingyun landed on the high platform. In an instant, the entire space became silent. Countless gazes looked down, and the passion in their eyes was enough to make one tremble in fear.
"The lecture this time is mainly for the common people. The rest can also listen, but do not make a noise," Chu Xingyun said in a deep voice, breaking the silence.
At the same time, the 300,000 students slowly stepped forward and moved to the back, giving their seats to the common people. They did not speak, nor did they make a noise. The atmosphere was very harmonious.
This caused the crowd of over a hundred thousand to be stunned. However, very soon, some people let out low chuckles. Their gazes were filled with disdain and ridicule as they looked at Chu Xingyun. It was a very dazzling sight.
"The lecture this time is mainly for the common people. Is Luo Yun trying to fool us?"
"Young students are still young, and their horizons are limited. It is easy for them to blindly admire a person after hearing a few words. However, we are different. It is impossible for Luo Yun to fool us!"
These thoughts appeared in the minds of the crowd. However, they did not disobey Chu Xingyun's order. They stepped forward and looked up, wanting to see what Chu Xingyun had to say.
"The situation is not optimistic," Ning Lefan murmured, and his expression became more anxious.
"Yun 'er never does anything that she's not confident of. The only thing we can do now is to believe in Yun' er." Chu Xing Chen also followed. He took a deep breath and looked at Chu Xingyun again.
Chu Xingyun was standing on the high platform. His dark eyes were shining brightly. His voice suddenly became loud and clear. "Since the establishment of the Ancient Star Sect, the power of the Ancient Star Sect has been controlled by the main clan. Under the main clan, there are five big clans. They are in charge of the affairs of the Eighteen Ancient Cities."
"After the bloody battle, Gu Fanxing died, and the clan gradually declined. The upper echelons of the clan were exiled to the Lost Grounds by me. They were not allowed to enter the Northern Wilderness Region for the rest of their lives. Under such circumstances, the Liu Family replaced the clan and took control of the clan. The Four Families still existed and continued to rule the 18 ancient cities."
When the crowd heard Chu Xingyun's words, no one said anything. They all knew this. They could not say anything, and there was no need to say anything.
"The Four Great Clans control the eighteen Ancient Cities, and there are countless clans in each Ancient City. They all have different surnames, but they all belong to the Four Great Clans. They are also under the Four Great Clans' control. Am I right?" Chu Xing Yun suddenly asked. His gaze slowly moved, taking in the crowd of clans.
The expressions of those clans changed. They all looked away, not daring to look into Chu Xingyun's eyes. But they still nodded and did not refute this fact.
Chu Xingyun smiled and continued, "The 18 ancient cities and the vast clan region seem complicated and ever-changing. But in fact, it is a towering tower. All the power and resources are controlled by a few people. The main power is in the hands of the Family Head. The side power is in the hands of the Family Head. The rest of the people, even the mainstays of the Family, do not have much power or resources."
"When the Family Head retires, the great power will be passed down. But the new Family Head will be chosen from the Family Head's children, who will be supported by countless upper echelons of the Family. In this way, the tower of power of the Family will not change. The power of the Family Head will still be in the hands of the Family Head, but the mainstays of the Family Head and countless people will still be at the bottom of the tower. They have no power and no power."
When Chu Xingyun spoke, there was no sarcasm in his words. He was very calm. He was just describing a fact that everyone knew. As it echoed in the minds of the crowd, it seemed to have some kind of power that could resonate deep in their hearts.
Many people lowered their heads. Their faces were full of helplessness.
As Chu Xingyun said, the power of the 18 ancient cities was controlled by the Family Heads. It was passed down from generation to generation. Ordinary people could not change anything at all. Even if they were lucky enough to get some power, they had to rely on the Four Great Families. They had to welcome people with a smile and did not dare to act rashly.
If they offended the Four Great Families or had a conflict of interest, the Family Heads could easily take away all the power and even the lives of the Family Heads!
In addition to the people, some of the Family Heads who came to see Chu Xingyun make a fool of himself also had a gloomy face. Their expressions were extremely ugly.
As the mainstays of the Family Heads, they knew more about the Family Heads than ordinary people. Therefore, after hearing Chu Xingyun's words, they felt more helpless than ordinary people.
In the eyes of others, they were dressed luxuriously and had a high attitude. In fact, all of this belonged to the Family Heads. It was just a beautiful appearance.
The matter of Wind Willow House was the best example.
The distribution of the resources of the 18 ancient cities and the 18 dynasties was very important. Those who went were the Family Heads and the senior members of the Family Heads. The middle-level members could not go. Even if they got a lot of power, it had nothing to do with them.
Chu Xingyun's analogy was very vivid. The existence of the great clans was like a tall tower. The people in power stood at the top of the tower. Although there weren't many of them, they could look down on everyone. They would stand at the very top.
As for the Family Heads below the towers, there were the middle-level members of the Family Heads and countless ordinary people. They had no power and could only rely on the Family Heads. They could not see a trace of hope at all.
"The Ancient Star Sect has existed for thousands of years. The Family Heads system has also existed for thousands of years. It helps to gather a lot of power and stabilize the rule. However, after a long time, it makes you numb and willing to be a fish on the chopping block." At this time, Chu Xingyun spoke again, attracting everyone's attention. They subconsciously held their breaths.
"The Ancient Star Sect today no longer belongs to the Family Heads. It is under the control of the Wanjian Pavilion. The old system naturally cannot survive!"
