You Do the First Day, I'll Do the Fifteenth-Luo Heaven's Counterattack, Divided into Three Routes!

Following Li Jinhuang's wishes from when he was alive, the funeral continued.

However, his remains were no longer in the coffin. There were only the clothes he had often worn in life, making it nothing more than a clothes-and-crown tomb.

Luo Chen, clad in a Red Cloud Dharma Robe, attended the funeral.

When he offered incense, every member of the Li Family showed him the utmost respect.

Everyone could see it clearly.

During the Li Family's greatest crisis, not one of their former partners or Li Jinhuang's friends had chosen to lend a hand.

Only Luo Chen!

Even when surrounded by the three Hu brothers, Wei Tuo, Pill Origin Master, and other Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment experts,

he had remained steadfast and refused to retreat.

Such great kindness was something the Li Family members would never forget.

Especially since, before Li Jinhuang's soul dissipated, he had handed Luo Chen the Chi Dragon Sword representing the Clan Leader's authority and entrusted him with its safekeeping.

It was clear just how much the other party trusted Luo Chen.

Because of that trust, Luo Chen's standing in the Li Family had now risen straight into the clouds.

His prestige had even surpassed that of the current Clan Leader, Li Yingzhang.

At dusk.

By the Scented Flower River, Luo Chen handed a Talisman Treasure to Li Yingzhang.

"Senior, this..."

"Take it." Luo Chen clasped his hands behind his back. "I know you aren't lacking Top-Grade Magic Tools, but Talisman Treasures can sometimes change the tide of battle. I'll keep the Chi Dragon Sword for you. Come claim it after you establish your Foundation."

Li Yingzhang gripped the Talisman Treasure and nodded heavily.

Luo Chen gazed into the distance, as if his eyes had crossed mountains and rivers to land upon the desolate, barren Tanqiu Mountain.
