"Are you confident about your Foundation Establishment?" Li Zhirui asked.
Li Zhixuan's expression flickered, but it soon turned resolute as she nodded forcefully and said, "Yes! I'm certain I can succeed in Foundation Establishment!"
"It's good to have confidence, let's go. We'll head to the warehouse, and I'll help you exchange for a Foundation Establishment Pill."@@@@
"But I don't need your interest, and there's no need to rush to repay me." Seeing her puzzled look, Li Zhirui said with a laugh, "Do I look like someone who takes advantage of people?"
Without waiting for Li Zhixuan to explain, he said, "Your successful Foundation Establishment will strengthen the family's power, and that is more important than anything."
He indeed had a substantial amount of Contribution Value on hand, after all the years spent refining Spirit Pills for the family and the Methods he provided. Since he scarcely used them, his accumulation was naturally considerable.
If it were just about Contribution Value, there might be no one in the entire family with more than Li Zhirui.
In this matter, Li Zhirui's attitude was the same towards all family members; if you were confident about your Foundation Establishment, he would lend the Contribution Value. After all, having so much Contribution Value had little use in his hands.
"Let's go."
Li Zhirui took Li Zhixuan to the warehouse and used his Contribution Value to help her exchange for a Foundation Establishment Pill.
"Don't lose it." After some thought, Li Zhirui added, "If you're worried, you can entrust it to elder brother or Mrs. Ting for safekeeping."
"Thank you, Ninth Brother." Li Zhixuan, who hadn't spoken since Li Zhirui agreed to help her, bowed to him solemnly.
"Work hard in your cultivation. Foundation Establishment is just the starting point on the path of cultivation, don't be satisfied with just this and halt your progress." Li Zhirui advised her before they parted ways.
Because the exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill wasn't done in secret, the news quickly spread throughout the entire family, causing a buzz among the members.
"Ninth Brother, why did you lend so many Contribution Value to Zhixuan?" One day, while learning Alchemy from Li Zhirui, Li Zhiyue suddenly asked.

The news about lending Contribution Value to help Li Zhixuan exchange for a Foundation Establishment Pill spread far and wide, eventually reaching almost all family members.
Li Zhirui was not affected by this and was even looking forward to someone coming to inquire or to ask him for Contribution Value.
Unfortunately, until several months later when he was about to leave Da Rong Island, no family member came to him.
"Come back soon." Having said everything necessary before, when the time to send Li Zhirui off arrived, there were only these four short words.
"Don't worry, I will return safely!"
After speaking, he patted the Cangfeng Hawk beneath him and said, "Let's go."
The giant hawk spread its wings and soared instantly, turning into a mere speck that disappeared from the gazes of those watching below.

Great Void Province was not far from Da Rong Island, just two to three thousand miles away in a straight line. However, given that this place was chaotic, the family had never thought to develop here, so they did not know much about it.
Of course, there wasn't much to know. This was a breeding ground filled with blood and slaughter.
Great Void Province served as the furnace, where countless cultivators acted as Gu Insects, fighting each other to eventually cultivate a few strong Gu Insects that could leap out of the furnace to become onlookers.
"Kid, hand over your storage bag, and that Cangfeng Hawk you're riding on, and I might spare your life!"
A boisterous voice snapped Li Zhirui out of his thoughts, and he looked with interest at the two Foundation Establishment cultivators in front of him, one tall and thin, the other short and fat.
He wasn't surprised that someone would try to rob him on the road; after all, this was Great Void Province. He just hadn't expected it to happen so soon – he had just set foot on the land of Great Void Province.
"You dumb kid, the boss is talking to you! Are you mute?" The tall, thin Loose Cultivator, resembling a bamboo pole, became infuriated when he saw Li Zhirui remained silent and was even examining him from top to bottom.
