"Eighth Grandfather." Luo Zheng solemnly bowed to Li Fu.
Li Fu hurried forward and pulled Luo Zheng upright. "You are now the king of our Li Clan. Why should you bow to us?"
Even setting aside the fact that Luo Zheng's current strength was more than enough to lead the Li Clan's remnants, his birth alone gave him an exalted position within the clan.
"This bow is to thank you for the Hidden Power you left me back then, Eighth Grandfather," Luo Zheng said, his face full of sincerity.
"Hidden Power?" Surprise appeared on Li Fu's face.
Hearing this, Li Lu added from beside them, "He means the Hidden Power we left in the Divine Realm back then. The Great Chieftain intended to pass it on to the children of the Li Clan, but we never expected it to ultimately converge in Luo Zheng alone..."
Back then, Luo Zheng had relied on that Hidden Power to escape Phoenix Woman's pursuit.
"Heaven has its ordained fate, and it protects our Li Clan. Everything was destined by an unseen hand. If my elder brothers had lived to see this day, they could have closed their eyes in peace..." Li Fu's face filled with emotion.
Many of the Li Clan members also had tears brimming in their eyes. These surviving remnants had once been core members of the clan, among those with the purest bloodlines.
Ever since the Li Clan's destruction, they had struggled onward through hardship. Now that they finally had hope in Luo Zheng, how could they not rejoice?
When the Li Clan's remnants sought refuge at Li Mountain, they had already resolved to stand with Luo Zheng.
Luo Zheng's emergence and rise had already been an unexpected blessing. If even he could not prevail, there would be little meaning left
