The Four Clears of Pangu were no longer the orthodox descendants of Pangu. At the very least, they could no longer act in the Honghuang under Pangu's name. It was simply because when Pangu desired resurrection, not only did they refuse to help, but they even kicked him while he was down!
One could say that the reputation of the Four Clears of Pangu in the Honghuang fell far short of that of the Wu clan; this rift could never be mended.
The modern Four Clears of Pangu merely occupied the status of being transformed from the Pangu Primordial Spirit; as for anything else, they no longer had any relation to Pangu whatsoever.
