The Jade Truth Alliance, which had once been unmatched in popularity within Moon Lake Commandery City, collapsed.
The Zhong family and the two other top seventh-rank families that had first started it were destroyed.
More than half of the original Jade Truth Alliance's Martial Dao families instead joined the Moon Lake Martial Alliance, headed by the Chang and Yang families.
However, after the Moon Lake Martial Alliance was established, it did not seem to have any intention of swallowing the other aristocratic families. It lowered its flags and drums and developed quietly.
However, the other families huddled together were still cautious. At the slightest stir, they would unite with the other aristocratic family forces to encircle and suppress the Moon Lake Martial Alliance.
Yet the Moon Lake Martial Alliance did not give them any opportunity at all.
The commandery city entered a relatively peaceful period.
