It was said that the Emperor of Great Yan Dynasty, Yan Dan, had one hundred sons and more than thousands of grandchildren. And, the one hundred sons of Emperor Yan were also the Clan Leaders of one hundred Imperial Clans of Great Yan Dynasty.
Although Yan Buji was an unruly man, he was the genuine grandson of Yan Dan's ninth son, thus, making him the blood great grandson of Yan Dan, and the clan leader of the Ninth Imperial Clan of Great Yan Dynasty. On the other side, the ancestor of Yan Jiuhui was a concubine's son of Yan Dan's ninth son. As a result, it placed him under the sovereign of Duke Yan Le, the Clan Leader of his clan.
After Lu Chengfeng's identity was confirmed, it was natural that he would inherit the title of Duke Yan Le, the governmental post of West Supervisor, and the position of the Clan Leader for the Ninth Imperial Clan. In terms of his position in the clan's hierarchy, Lu Chengfeng was the genuine patriarch of Yan Jiuhui and Yan Bugui.
