Pei Ling accepted it with both hands, didn't bother to look it over, and put it away. With a solemn expression, he said, "The Li Clan's great kindness is etched deep in my heart. I swear I won't let you down!"
The Li Clan was currently doing everything in its power to cultivate him and help him compete for the Holy Son's position. These resources could only be more than enough, never too few.
Li Wuding listened and nodded slightly, then said, "After the unexpected turn of events during your True Inheritor mission, our clan's Old Ancestor personally stepped in to get you justice."
