It represented the inheritance and continuation of the family's peak fighting strength, a symbol of the family's flourishing prosperity.
For a time, the Li Family was festooned with lanterns and decorations, brimming with celebration. Elders and stewards from every hall, as well as closely affiliated families, came one after another to offer their congratulations. Banquets were laid out, the fragrance of spirit fruits and fine wine filled the air, and laughter never ceased. Even the Enforcement Hall, usually the most stern and disciplined of all, relaxed considerably over the following days, allowing disciples on rotation to share in the festive atmosphere.

Li Tiandang smiled as well. "It is only human nature. Seeing one's bloodline continue and the new generation of the family grow strong truly is more gratifying than a personal breakthrough." His gaze swept over the bustling courtyard, where many young faces had gathered. Li Xuanqing, Li Xuanmeng, Li Xuan Yan, and the others of the younger generation stood together, curiously watching the infant surrounded by elders, their eyes filled with wonder at life and longing for the future.
"Indeed," Chen Jianjun said with feeling. "Xuansheng and the others are fighting in Blue Moon City, bringing glory to our Li Family. And now the family has welcomed another child, full of vitality. This is a sign of the family's great rise."
