After understanding Li Shiqing's intention, Li Zhirui also calmed down and asked, "Why have you chosen me?"
"Because I have no other choice but you," Li Shiqing didn't reveal the real reason, only telling Li Zhirui that it wasn't that he chose him, but that there was no choice, it had to be him.
Li Shilian was also getting on in years, Li Shiting was cold in nature, Li Shiren was not shrewd enough, and as for the other clan members, if they weren't hopeless in breaking through to Foundation Establishment, they were a long way from achieving it. Only Li Zhirui was the right fit.
Of course, if it were simply a matter of being suitable, Li Shiqing wouldn't have chosen him, but he didn't want to utter those words of praise, lest Li Zhirui become arrogant.
"I have been transferring power to the Elders recently, so when you take over as Clan Leader, you won't have to work as tirelessly as I have," he explained. At the same time, this was also a constraint, a test.
