As one of the earliest Four Great Sects, Yao Yue Palace was already a top Great Sect during the previous dynasty, with a long heritage, far surpassing the founding time of Da Jing.
Its martial arts are profound and extensive, originally having four branches.
Later, because they assisted the founding Emperor of Da Jing, internal strife occurred within Yao Yue Palace, and through mutual slaughter, two branches were wiped out, leaving two branches remaining.
Originally, there was one branch for each gender, but five hundred years ago, changes occurred again, and Yao Yue Palace ceased to recruit male disciples, leaving only a single inheritance branch.
It is said that the founding patriarch of the Zhenyi Sect was the last male disciple of Yao Yue Palace.
This appearance of the Qionghua Nine Chapters here clearly confirms this rumor, as Zhenyi Sect was indeed created by a disciple of Yao Yue Palace, specifically a male disciple.
