Chapter 259: A Grand Feast"The Azure Cloud War Clan!" Li Wei loved these percentage bonuses. However, he still didn't quite understand this matter of being protected by destiny. The ancestral worship ceremony at the ancestral hall soon concluded. That night, the Li family descendants held a grand feast, inviting everyone in Green Valley Town and the friends who had come to help to celebrate. Green Valley Town was brightly lit, with spirit lanterns hanging high. After the war, the people of the town weren't concerned with formalities. They simply sat on the ground, gnawing on roasted demonic beast meat brought by the Giant Rock Spirit Jade Tribe, sharing wine, and dividing the spoils of war. The demon cultivators from the Thunderfire Cave and the Li family's spirit beasts were the most delighted. The corpses of the Wu Clan members were a great supplement for them, much to the annoyance of the self-proclaimed righteous cultivators, who could only gnash their teeth at those broken totems and bones. The Li family members gathered together. They hadn't had such a reunion in many years, and they cherished this feast, chatting about all the happy events that had occurred over the years. Li Wei also cherished this scene and didn't speed up the flow of time. "Those youngsters caused quite a stir at the Azure Cloud Martial Pavilion. Guess what? I was there too! Let me tell you, after those geniuses left, I secretly went after them one by one. How dare they bully my nephews and nieces? Hmph..." Li Tianming, who couldn't hold his liquor, had one foot on a chair and the other on the table. His face was flushed as he recounted his "glorious deeds," completely oblivious to the disapproving stares from his family members. And then... "Woo woo woo~" The first and second generations sat at one table, the third generation at another, and the rest of the children gathered around wherever they could find space. Li Tianming was tied to a pillar with his mouth gagged. "Don't mind him. He's a good-for-nothing!" Li Tianyi feigned anger, actually afraid that his brother would be kicked out of the family again. Then, he said proudly, "I'm different. Hehehe, I've been digging graves every day these years, and I'm getting more and more skilled. Not just the Azure Cloud Pavilion, even the Skyveil Sect, Black Tortoise Sect, the Ghost Eye Sect... I've looted them all..." "Woo woo woo~" Tied to the pillar, one drunk and one sober, both bound like adults, their eyes met, expressing their shared misery. Frightened by this sight, the fourth generation of children sat up straight, not daring to mention the foolish things they had done outside. They exchanged glances, probably realizing that most of them weren't exactly upstanding citizens, then burst into laughter.

"You little rascals!" Li Yaotie abruptly stood up again. He had heard that that punk, Li Tianqi, had actually encouraged the youngsters to go and court death among the Wu Clan, and that Li Tianniu wanted to meet the beauties of the Wu Clan... Their audacity was beyond even his, their elder! But just as he was about to speak, Li Yaoqing stopped him. Second Sister rolled her eyes at him and said, "Why are you so worried? If the kids want to be reckless, let them be. They're smarter than you; they know what they're doing." "Smarter than me? Impossible!" Li Yaotie's eyes widened in disbelief. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he turned to Bai Rourou for support. "Wife," he pleaded, "say something!" Bai Rourou served food to everyone, ignoring her own stubborn husband. Li Yaotie then turned to his elder brother, hoping for a fair judgment. "Elder Brother..." he said. "Yes, yes, yes, you're the smartest, alright?" Li Yaozu said with a fake smile. This pleased Li Yaotie so much that he rubbed his shiny bald head, as if to show everyone what it meant to be "smart and bald." Nearby... The Seven Ironclad, although still bearing demonic markings, had regained some of their simple and honest demeanor under the influence of Li Yaowen's literary power, despite their serious expressions. They glanced at their father, who was proudly rubbing his bald head, and began whispering amongst themselves. "Old man says he's smart? Yeah, right! smart my ass! Remember how that stinky old man tricked us back then?" "Don't even mention it," one of the Seven grumbled. "He taught us to chase after women, and I ended up being treated like a hooligan." "Eldest Uncle and Grandfather were such a disappointment. We should give him a beating, just like he used to beat us when we were kids." Heeheehee~ The old simpletons chuckled, seemingly recalling some amusing memories. "Ahem." Li Yunlin coughed lightly, interrupting the Seven Ironclads' fantasies. He looked at his younger brother. "Second brother, why do you look older and older? Aren't you at the Golden Core Stage?" Everyone at the table looked at the oldest-looking member of the family. Hearing this, Li Yunbing looked around cautiously like a thief, then covered his mouth with his hand and whispered, "Don't tell the others, but to be honest with you, those places like the Thunderfire Cave and the Demon Subduing Alliance are really tough to navigate." "Those demon cultivators and righteous cultivators, none of them are truly good people. Later, I realized that the older I looked, the whiter my hair became, the more authority I commanded." "Also, I secretly went out and observed the behavior of those powerful figures for three whole years. I practiced their mannerisms in front of a bronze mirror for three years before finally mastering their demeanor." "Tsk, tsk." Li Yunbing sighed with emotion. "To control those cunning and scheming people," he said, "you not only need to be strong, but you also need to dominate them with your presence. My aura..." Li Yunlin gave him a thumbs up. He spoke with deep understanding. "You're right," he said. "I felt the same when I was the Sect Master of the Skyveil Sect. When I lacked presence, there were always those who would try to cause trouble. But with a strong aura and a stern glare, even if your strength is inferior to theirs, they will still cower before you." Listening to their two elder brothers sharing their experiences, the Seven Ironclad pouted. Li Yundou scoffed and said, "What's so great about being a Sect Master? It's not like we haven't killed one before." "Hmm?" Two pairs of narrowed eyes glared at him, making Li Yundou's legs weak with fear. --- Loving the story? Fuel the adventure!
