When the parchment roll returned to Thro's hand again, Thro smiled again, held the table with both hands, then coughed twice, awakening all the senior officials in shock, and then continued to speak:

"Everyone, this pampering scroll is actually not a classic book in strict sense, because its history is not that long. In fact, this pampering scroll is the language left by the last high priest of our family a year before the birth of the God of Darkness and the God of Light Knights. The twin emperors are about to be born, and their former glory will be gone. Leaving the original world, they will be exiled to the void, and when darkness arises again, the day of the revival of light is the time to go home."

The position of High Priest is a position that has been passed down from all major families when they were just founded. According to legend, the position of High Priest is the will given by the ancestors. They will give correct prophecies when the patriarch makes incorrect decisions, and will re-pulse the family that has left the development track and return to the right track. It can be said that the position of High Priest has no authority in normal times, but if the family reaches a critical moment, it is an existence that surpasses the patriarch's rights.

Logically speaking, the existence of the position of High Priest is very reasonable, because their inheritance allows them to predict the future to a certain extent. However, even if they are not used, they will be jealous. After entering the ancient times, the patriarchs of the four major families began to not accumulate content with their heads, and they also had a high priest. Although they had no effect in normal times, they often stopped the patriarchs' actions at critical moments.

So, the patriarchs of the four major families began to join forces and perform one big show after another. They first secretly killed the real high priest, then made a fake successor and went up to inherit the position of the high priest. You should know that if the position of the high priest was not really for the sake of the family, they would definitely use their power for personal gain. Under the indulgence of the four major clan leaders, there was a problem with the "high priest" fist fight in the four families, and there was even a high priest who had an affair with the wife of the clan leader and was preparing to take the opportunity to replace the position of the clan leader.

Seeing that the opportunity was almost done, the four great clan leaders took action and suppressed all the "high priests". After this incident, the high priest, who had originally surpassed the head of the family in people's hearts, became a place where everyone shouted and beaten. Therefore, under the request of the "people", the position of the high priest completely became a idle position. There was basically no right to speak of.

However, the four great patriarchs did not forget their ancestors. They only weakened the rights of the high priest, but did not cancel the position of the high priest. After killing the "high priest" they supported, the real high priest took over. For a long time later, the four great patriarchs no longer referred to the high priest's ideas about how their family should develop. Although one or two high priests had given their advice, they still did not change the ideas of the tribe leaders.

It was from that time that the situation in the mainland was no longer the dominant four major families. Some small and medium-sized families gradually began to rise, and the Edgar family and the Aston family were the two of the most inconspicuous existences. However, the four major families did not care. After all, in that era, there were no empires on the entire Holy Spirit Continent, and some of the rules in the city were basically dominated by the four major families.

There is nothing wrong with saying that the four major families were the four empires of that era. However, the four major families are not as good as those of the empires and take care of the people. In their eyes, except for the people of their own family, what will happen to other people is not related to them. Regarding trade, talents, etc., all the people or casual cultivators are organized by themselves, and even the temple that has been abandoned for many years is gradually developing these things.

The four major families did not interfere in these matters. After all, no matter how powerful the four major families are, the super big cake of the Holy Spirit Continent is not something they can divide. So they don’t think that they are divided into some small meats, but they didn’t expect that because these small cakes are getting bigger and bigger, many families have gradually developed into existence that can threaten them.

The high priests advised them to do these things at the beginning, but the patriarchs did not listen. After the families developed, the four major families had to suspend their current development plans and began to encircle and suppress those families that were enough to threaten them. However, they had delegated power and agreed to it. Now that they wanted to return these rights, those families would certainly not agree. Therefore, the four major families that were originally in a dominant position began to become hostile to the human forces on the entire Holy Spirit Continent.

After hundreds of years of war, although the four major families destroyed many families that could threaten them, those guys killed one after another like bamboo shoots after the rain. Over time, even if the four major families have superhuman background, they gradually began to lose money. So the four major families had to bow their heads. Although they also divided a lot of things into this cake, they eventually lost money.

At this time, when they remembered the warning of the high priest again, it was too late, and this hundreds of years of war also laid the groundwork for the departure of the four major families later. In the following thousands of years, the small families began to make a fortune again with some small meat that the four major families looked down upon at the beginning, and the cakes were made bigger, but the four major families could only guard their original industries, reap their capital and not innovate, which made them jealous again.

And this time, among the larger families, the Edgar family and the Aston family were the leaders. So, the nightmare of the four major families began here. When the four major families remembered the warnings and prophecies given by the high priest, they had been exiled to the meth realm.
