They concealed their wealth and life experience, and silently followed the strict family rules of the royal family.

When dark clouds covered the courtyards of various families, the blood in the bodies of the descendants of each family burned again. After enduring for three hundred years, they launched a life-and-death battle with the aliens who tried to rule them...
