On the day before The Seventh Immortal Emperor was to confer the title of Marquis upon Basil Jaak, someone caught wind of the news, traveling a thousand miles in a day, and by the next dawn, they were already within Wind Mansion in Immortal City.
In Immortal City, and indeed throughout the Immortal Spirit Kingdom, there were three powerful families.
The foremost family was naturally the overwhelming imperial family, the Zion family. Since becoming the imperial family of the Immortal Spirit Kingdom, their bloodline has shown no signs of decline.
In this generation, though Zion and Black Tortoise have turned against each other as brothers, both are cultivation talents.

Apart from the Zion family, there are two other equally formidable families.
