"I wonder when Zhirui and Zhiyue will come back," whispered Li Shiqing, his tone laden with deep concern.
Ever since they left the Li family, he visited the ancestral shrine every day for fear of their safety. Though their Life Tokens remained intact, it did nothing to ease his action.
Despite the recent breakthrough of Li Chenghuo to Golden Core, making him the sixth cultivator in the family to reach such heights and allowing for an orderly inheritance—thus confirming the Li family as a true Golden Core power!
Yet, Zhirui's importance remains unparalleled; as of now, no one in the family could possibly replace him.
In terms of cultivation, Zhirui has reached Golden Core Perfection, merely a step away from the Nascent Soul Realm. Once he succeeds, the Li family will be able to break free from Shen Leishan and truly become an independent entity.
