Now that the three families have merged into the seven families, the Luo family is ready to rise. It's time, says the patriarch, to choose the new head of the family. He's invited all the chiefs to come, but he's not going to allow yunhai to usurp the throne. He wants to make sure that the traitors are dealt with, and he doesn't want him to get his hands on the family's cultivation manual. He tells the other chiefs that he and the zhuo family have been friends for a long time, and that they've been willing to take in the cai and the luo families when their families were in trouble. The two families have severed ties, and the patriarch says that he'll never forgive anyone who harms his family again
