Don't forget, the temple possesses a mystical sacrificial method, which is the secret of the Muto Family.
The residents of Ancient Sky City have almost all been to the temple for sacrifices.
Over the years, the temple's prestige among the people has even surpassed that of the Pharaoh.
The temple, previously under the rule of the Pharaoh, shows signs of losing control.
Add to this the Pharaoh's lifelong neglect of worldly affairs, delegating everything to City Hall.
How can a single City Hall compete with the temple?
The temple has protected martial artists who violated the Code of Law several times, forcing City Hall to reluctantly accept.
In recent years, the Muto Family has been unusually active externally, making numerous connections.
This is enough to prove that the Muto Family is not satisfied with the current situation.
It is said that the Pharaoh once expressed the desire to take over the temple, but was politely refused by the Muto Family.
