Generally speaking, it was very difficult for a family to carry on for a thousand years, which was why the term "thousand-year clan" existed in the first place. But that did not quite apply in Liyue. If someone in Liyue could take proper stock, they would discover that there were far too many thousand-year clans. A family like Lu Weng's was nothing special at all; they had not even made it into the Twelve Families of Chenyu Vale.
And that was only over in Chenyu Vale. If Liyue Harbor and the other cities were included, there would be even more. For example, the families of Xingqiu, Chongyun, Keqing, and the others had basically all carried on for over a thousand years. Naturally, the reason Liyue could have so many families with thousand-year lineages was all thanks to the great Lord of Geo.
From its founding to the present, Liyue had a history of three thousand seven hundred years, nearly four millennia. Over all those years, aside from some natural and man-made disasters, Liyue had not suffered any major calamity. Under such circumstances, most families could naturally continue their lineages.
Ordinary worlds did not receive such treatment. Looking across the dynasties of history, they basically lasted around three or four hundred years before great turmoil followed. In chaotic times, even so-called noble families did not necessarily have the chance to survive and pass down their legacy. Otherwise, there would not have been the saying about the streets of the capital being paved with the bones of dukes and ministers.
Looking at the other nations, not a single one could preserve peace for more than three thousand years. One had to admit, Zhongli was just that incredible.
