After his father-in-law's explanation, Chen Che finally understood the plight of the "Interim Sect Leader," Yu Yunko. However, it was a long story, one that traced all the way back to the period of the Star-Picking Sect's internal strife:

Thus, breaking the clan structure to ascend to a Sect was the optimal path.
