The Zhao clan is headed by Zhao Jin, a Protector of the Profound Sky Mansion. Beneath him is his son, Zhao Deng. Further down the hierarchy are the Profound Sky Mansion elders belonging to the Zhao clan. Of course, these elders do not all carry the surname "Zhao"; the vast majority are outsiders who have attached themselves to the "great trees" of Zhao Jin and Zhao Deng, and thus are considered part of the Zhao clan faction. Many of them are disciples of the father-son duo.
If one were to describe the Zhao clan faction as a pyramid, Zhao Jin would be the man standing at the top—the leader of the clan. Because of this, his every word and action represents the "will" of the entire Zhao clan. To give an example, if Zhao Jin were to fall out with the Mansion Master of the Profound Sky Mansion, Meng Qing, and come to blows, every elder and disciple of the Zhao clan faction—even those with different surnames—would stand firmly on Zhao Jin's side. It is precisely this cohesion that gives the Zhao clan faction its lofty status in the Profound Sky Mansion, second only to the Mansion Master, and above thousands of others.
