The Li Family was powerful and influential as they were one of the big four families of the Capital. However, they were weaker than the Wang Family or Ye Family so they could only be ranked third in the four big families.
Of course, when the Third Master of the Li Family was still alive, the Li Family was the strongest out of the four big families. With his own strength, the Third Master suppressed the other three families. His name was known across the entire nation.
Unfortunately, with the Third Master’s disappearance, the strength of the Li Family deteriorated exponentially. They dropped from the strongest family to the third strongest family of the four big families. Their position was still insecure as they could be replaced by the Liu Family and drop to the fourth place anytime.
But even if the family was on the decline, the Li Family was still powerful and influential. Other than the Wang, Ye and Liu Families, they were the strongest family.
