Chapter 591: Chapter Five Hundred and Eighty-Seven: Arrangement in Order

“Why must things come to this, Patriarch Wei!” Clan Chief Tang Zhi, deeply grieved by Wei Zhao’s request, addressed the two men: “I beg the both of you to rise. I am indeed at fault for this oversight. One thing has led to another these past few days, and I have failed to arrange for your clans’ families to retreat. This is entirely my fault.”

Indeed, everyone had a sense of whether it was a genuine oversight or intentional neglect. There was really no need to dissect it, in the end, the blame lay on both clans.

At that time, when the Tang Clan was receiving the various clans of Xiling, they offered several fertile plots of land in North Mountain, symbolising that anyone could choose to live there. There were options both deep within North Mountain or on its peripheries.

If one chose to settle deep into North Mountain, their territories would be enveloped by the Tang Clan’s in the very center. Hence, almost all clans elected to station themselves on the outskirts, so that even if relationships between the clans changed, they could easily advance or retreat.

However, who could have predicted that war would break out between the Tang Mi clans before the floodwaters had receded? With the Mi Clan’s army pressing on them, those clans located on the extreme outskirts of North Mountain could only resist fiercely. As they reflected on their earnest choices to station themselves on the outskirts, Patriarchs Zhu and Wei could only regret that time could not be rewound.

But the situation had already unfolded, and regret was useless. Only when they heard that Tang Zhi was willing to arrange for their clans’ families to retreat did their faces show delight.

“Rest assured, both of you. Starting from today, I will arrange for the families of all the clans on the outskirts to retreat and treat them as the first priority in the evacuation order!” Tang Zhi’s tone was firm and decisive, as if he sought to make up for his past mistakes and start compensating the clans.

All clans have an order of priority, which is shown in the distribution of resources, and the first priority symbolises the clan’s utmost care and favouritism.

Entering the first priority not only requires birth into the direct lineage, but also substantial contributions to the clan.
