"Reporting to Young Master, it is thanks to you that Lord Zhou Chang has been so kind to our Li Clan."
"Our Li Clan suffered no losses during this trip to the Sin Banquet Secret Realm; on the contrary, we gained quite a lot."
Li Tan then explained the situation of the Li Clan.
Because of Lin An, Zhou Chang gave the Li Clan Li Clan some preferential treatment and even bestowed upon them the Immortal Talisman Token, so that they could borrow Zhou Chang's power if they encountered danger.
As such, the Li Clan reaped extremely rich rewards in this Sin Banquet Secret Realm.
Lin An nodded. Although there were many Immortal Realm Sin Beast in the Sin Banquet Secret Realm, these Immortal Realm Sin Beast were all in the deepest part. Naturally, the Li Clan could not venture into the depths to take risks. They were only facing Sovereign Realm Sin Beast, which were relatively easy to deal with.
Moreover, the Li Clan also has a strong foundation. Although they do not have any Immortal Realm experts, they do have Immortal Rank formations within their family, which can barely unleash the combat power of the Immortal Realm expert.
"Did something happen to the Li Clan this time?" Lin An asked.
If the Li Clan really encounters any trouble, he wouldn't mind helping them resolve it, which would also settle the previous karmic debts.
However, his relationship with the Li Clan became limited after that.
"Reporting to young master, the Li Clan is fine. We have come mainly to present this item to you."
As Li Tan spoke, she carefully took out eight boxes. As the boxes were opened, one after another, crystal-clear beads appeared.
It is indeed the Immortal Pearl!
Lin An looked surprised. Although there were only eight Immortal Pearl, for the Li Clan, whose strongest member was only at the Sovereign Realm, obtaining these Immortal Pearl was already quite an achievement.
After all, once the Immortal Pearl appears, it will attract a large number of Sin Beast from the surrounding area, and may even attract Sin Beast at the Immortal Realm.
It could be said that the Li Clan was lucky to obtain one or two Immortal Pearl, but it's impossible to say that obtaining eight Immortal Pearl came without paying a price.
"Are you going to give me the Immortal Pearl?" Lin An asked.
"Young Master, we didn't know you had already broken through to the Immortal Realm before we came. So we thought the Immortal Pearl would be helpful to you, which is why we asked Lord Zhou Chang to help us get to the Central Heaven Region."
"But after we arrived in the Central Heaven Region, we learned from Domain Lord Qin Shao that the young master had already broken through to the Immortal Realm, so..."
I originally thought these Immortal Pearl would help Lin An break through to the Immortal Realm, but I didn't expect that he had already broken through.
When Li Tan and the other two heard the news, they were both pleasantly surprised and somewhat embarrassed, because they realized that Lin An seemed to no longer need the Immortal Pearl.
"Although I have already broken through to the Immortal Realm, this Immortal Pearl is still of great use to me."
Lin An smiled and put away the Immortal Pearl; he knew perfectly well what Li Tan and the other two were thinking.
But I couldn't help but feel a little emotional; the character of the Li Clan was truly impeccable.
Although the Li Clan wanted to curry favor with him, they made no attempt to hide it and instead worked hard to make him an even stronger ally.
So far, the Li Clan has not gained any significant benefits from him.
He had initially thought the Li Clan Li Clan rushed over seeking benefits after hearing that he had broken through to the Immortal Realm, but now it seemed he had underestimated them.
"As long as it's helpful to you, young master."
Li Tan and the other two breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
"You should rest in Central Heaven Region for a few days. I have some things to take care of. I'll come find you again in a few days," Lin An said.
"Alright, young master, please go ahead with your business. If you have any instructions, please let us know."
Li Tan and the other two nodded, then bid farewell to Lin An and left the Central Heaven Hall, heading towards the Central Heaven Region.
Lin An then took out a jade talisman and activated it, and soon a light screen appeared.
"Brother Lin, I knew you would come looking for me."
On the other end of the screen, Zhou Chang said with a smile.
"Oh? You figured that out?"
"No, it's just that I trust Brother Lin's character."
Lin An couldn't help but smile. The other Li Clan knew that after he saw the eight Immortal Pearl, he would ask them about the Li Clan's situation.
"How is the Li Clan doing?" Lin An asked.
"Not great, but not bad either; you could even say it was quite fruitful."
Zhou Chang then explained the situation of the Li Clan.
Previously, out of respect for Lin An, he had specially arranged for the Li Clan family to act together with the first and second families of the Western Severance Region, so that they could take care of each other.
At first, things were fine, but later the Li Clan began to take the initiative.
In particular, the Li Clan family at the Sovereign Realm spread out, their aim being to find the Immortal Pearl.
" The Li Clan paid a heavy price for these eight Immortal Pearl. Originally, the Li Clan had thirteen members at the Sovereign Realm Seventh Grade, but seven of them perished in the process of obtaining these eight Immortal Pearl."
"This was only possible because the other two families came to our rescue in time; otherwise, the losses would have been even greater."
"Currently, only six members of the Li Clan remain at the Sovereign Realm Seventh Grade. Among these six, three are seriously injured. If it weren't for Li Tan and the other two guarding the rear, the situation would probably be similar."
Zhou Chang said, "If we're talking about it, the Li Clan's strength doesn't even rank in the top 100 in the Western Severance Region right now."
"Then why do you say this isn't bad, and that you've gained a lot?"
Lin An frowned; he hadn't expected the Li Clan to suffer such heavy losses.
Zhou Chang only mentioned the losses suffered by the Li Clan Sovereign Realm Seventh Grade and above, but the losses suffered by those below the seventh rank are likely to be even greater.
It can be said that the Li Clan is now in a state of partial collapse, meaning that other families are still digesting the gains from the secret realm.
Otherwise, any random family could probably make the Li Clan a thing of the past.
"Although the losses were heavy, the Li Clan gained Brother Lin's friendship. With Brother Lin's help, the Li Clan has naturally reaped considerable benefits," Zhou Chang said with a smile.
He knew Lin An's extraordinary abilities; he could easily refine a few pills for the Li Clan and cultivate a large number of the Sovereign Realm experts.
The Li Clan may seem like a candle flickering in the wind right now, but once Lin An makes a move, that Li Clan will quickly turn into a raging fire.
Becoming the number one family below the Immortal in the Domain would be effortless.
Most importantly, Zhou Chang also believed in Lin An's character and would certainly not stand by and watch the Li Clan fall into ruin.
Thank you for informing me, Brother Zhou.
Lin An said that since the Li Clan was so sincere, he would naturally not let them down.
"It's all a small matter."
Zhou Chang smiled and said, "By the way, Brother Lin, I acquired quite a few resources this time, you see..."
"Just bring the resources then," Lin An said.
"Haha, then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Lin."
Zhou Chang laughed loudly, and the two chatted for a few more minutes before ending the video call.
Lin An took out the eight Immortal Pearl again, and now he understood what it meant to have a small gift but a deep meaning.
He immediately returned to the alchemy hall and took out the Heaven-Burning Divine Fire Furnace again to begin refining pills.
He couldn't save the members of the Li Clan who had already perished, but he certainly wouldn't stand by and watch those who were seriously injured die.
It wasn't until the next day that Lin An stopped refining pills, stepped out into Central Heaven City, and quickly found Li Tan and the other two.
