Family Immortal Cultivation: Li Clan

Chapter 85: Succession to the Patriarch, Family Secrets

In the Qingyun Hall, the elders of the Li family gathered together and sat at different tables.

Li Daoling sat in the main seat, his face calm and natural, without any sign of nervousness.

Everyone had a serious look on their faces, with unshakable worry on their faces. After preparing for half a year, Li Daoling had decided to give it a try.

Li Daoling glanced at the expressions of the crowd, then sighed slightly, and said to himself: "When I took over the family from Uncle Shouwang, his request to me was that I didn't need to lead the family to expand the territory, but only needed to preserve the ancestral heritage."

"At the beginning, I was full of vigor and vitality, determined to achieve the position of Jindan and let the family have a place in the Wanxing Sea. Now it seems that I was so ridiculous at the beginning."

Li Daoling laughed at himself, and his expression was inevitably a little lonely.

Then he continued, "I've gone too far. Three days later, I will start to strive for the Golden Core Stage. I know that the chance of success is less than one in ten thousand, so today's meeting can be regarded as an explanation of the aftermath!"

"Third brother, Third uncle, Third uncle, Daoling ancestor..."

When these words came out, everyone looked worried.

Li Daoling stretched out his hand to stop everyone, then looked at Li Changsheng and said, "After I die, Changsheng will be the new patriarch of the family."

Li Changsheng was a little surprised to hear this, and hurriedly said, "Third uncle, Changsheng is still inexperienced and knows nothing about family management. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to take on this important task. Please ask Third uncle to find someone else."

After Li Changsheng finished speaking, he looked at his grandfather and seventh uncle. In his heart, whether it was grandfather or seventh uncle, they were more than enough to manage the family.

Li Daoling looked at the others, wanting to hear what they thought.

Li Daozong pondered for a moment and said, "Although I am Changsheng's grandfather, I do not avoid relatives when promoting talents. Changsheng's ability and talent are obvious to all, so I agree with my third brother's opinion."

"That's right. My fifth brother and I are about the same age. Obviously, we are not suitable to be the clan leader. Changsheng is the clan leader, which is what everyone wants. I don't think anyone will disagree."

As soon as Li Daolong finished speaking, Li Tongtian and Li Changan also nodded in agreement.

The other elders also agreed. Li Changsheng was gifted. Whether it was his ability to handle things or his combat power, he was the best in the family now. No one objected at all.

Li Daoling was very satisfied with this scene, and then continued to ask, "Changsheng, you can't refuse it now!"

Li Changsheng looked embarrassed. It's not that he didn't want to be the clan leader, but the clan leader needed to deal with clan affairs, which would inevitably delay his cultivation time. If most of his thoughts were spent on family affairs, then the progress of cultivation would definitely be much slower.

Li Dao Zong knew what Li Changsheng was thinking, and then said: "Changsheng, don't worry, you only need to make decisions on major issues as the clan leader. Your seventh uncle and I will help you with some trivial matters. You should focus on cultivation."

"Yes, ninth brother, we will also help you, so don't refuse. If you don't take the position, no one will take it."

Li Changan also persuaded.

Li Tongzhou also said: "Changsheng, all family affairs will go through my hands first. I can make the decision on small matters. If I can't decide, I will ask my fifth uncle and seventh uncle first. I will never delay your cultivation. Don't worry!"

Li Changsheng no longer hesitated when he saw this, stood up, and then clasped his fists and said: "Thanks to the love of all clansmen, Changsheng will take the responsibility."

"Hahaha, good! The old and the new are changing, and I have no regrets from now on!"

Li Daoling couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw this, as if the huge stone in his heart had been put down. Now he can focus on the impact of the Jindan stage without distraction, and there will be no regrets even if he dies.

"Changsheng, come up!"

Li Changsheng heard this and then walked to the platform step by step under the gaze of many elders.

Li Daoling glanced at Li Changsheng with a look of relief in his eyes. He was very satisfied to hand over the family to such an outstanding younger generation.

He turned his palm and a deep blue seal appeared in his hand.

This bronze seal was covered with runes, exuding an ancient and vicissitudes of life, and vaguely exuded a sense of oppression. Seeing the seal, everyone present was respectful.

"This is the family seal refined by the Qingyun ancestor - the Qingyun seal, which is a third-level lower-grade magic weapon. Now I will pass it to you, representing your status as the patriarch."

The moment Li Changsheng took over the family seal, the sky above Qingyun Island was turbulent, and an inexplicable aura enveloped him, which was indescribable.

Li Daoling's eyes also flashed with a strange color. He has been in charge of the family seal for many years, but he only managed it as a token, and this situation has never happened before.

However, this aura came and went quickly. No one reacted, and Li Changsheng disappeared without noticing anything.

"Greetings, clan leader!"

Li Daoling was the first to salute Li Changsheng.

"Greetings, clan leader!"

The others also saluted immediately.

"Everyone, get up!"

After the salute, the rules were set and the identities were clarified. Li Changsheng became the new generation of clan leader of the Li family.

"Okay, everyone go down first! Changsheng stay."

After a while, only Li Changsheng and Li Daoling were left in the hall.

"Third uncle, do you have any other instructions?"

"Changsheng, I have a secret here. It is related to the rise of the family. It was passed down by the ancestor Qingyun. Only the clan leader is qualified to know. Now it's time to tell you."

"Secret?"

Li Changsheng was full of doubts. What secrets could there be in his family?

"Third uncle, please speak. Changsheng will keep it a secret."

No matter what the secret is, Li Changsheng agreed to it first and then said it.

"My Li family originated from the ancestor Qingyun. Do you know the identity of the ancestor Qingyun?"

Li Changsheng thought for a while and answered: "According to the ancient records of the family, before the ancestor Qingyun established the family, he was a disciple of a large sect. Later, he left the sect and came to the Wanxing Sea by chance. Then he established the family here."

"The records of the ancestor Qingyun in the ancient books were beautified by later generations. The real situation is that the sect where the ancestor Qingyun was located was destroyed. He was hunted down and fled from the outer sea to the Wanxing Sea."

Li Daoling did not stop until he told Li Changsheng the embarrassing story of the ancestor who founded the family.

"What?"

Li Changsheng was shocked. In his heart, the ancestor Qingyun was definitely a glorious and heroic image. Without him, there would be no entire Li family. He did not expect that the ancestor in his heart was actually hunted down and fled here.

Li Daoling then continued, "Do you still remember the Hundred Herbs Insect Repellent Incense your grandfather brought out when you went to Thousand Poison Island?"

"Hundred Herbs Insect Repellent Incense, Wanshou Xianzong!"

Li Changsheng was suddenly startled, and then he remembered that his grandfather said that the family got it by chance, but judging from the tone of his third uncle, it was obviously not the case.

"Could it be?"

Li Changsheng looked at his third uncle in shock.

Li Daoling no longer concealed it and said solemnly, "Yes, the Hundred Herbs Insect Repellent Incense was left by the Qingyun Patriarch, and the Qingyun Patriarch was from the Wanshou Xianzong!"
