After waiting another quarter of an hour and seeing that several clan mbers still hadn’t appeared, it’s highly likely they’ve truly fallen.
"Let’s go."
Li Zhirui noticed the space rift was already showing signs of closing, and imdiately urged the clan mbers to hurry up and set off, or else they’d all be left here.
Li Mingtang and other clan mbers also understood the gravity of the situation, realizing that they wouldn’t be able to wait for those few clan mbers. They looked back at the Floating Light Realm once more, then turned and strode towards the space rift.
"Huh?"
A certain clan mber suddenly let out an astonished "huh," pointing incredulously into the distance and saying, "Quick, look, is that Li Guangxing?"
Following the finger, Li Zhirui’s sharp gaze penetrated through layers of space and saw a cultivator riddled with injuries, with a weak aura, desperately flying towards their direction!
Although he didn’t know Li Guangxing personally, the aura surrounding him and the fact that it clashed with the world here was enough to confirm his identity.
"You all return to the family first, I’ll go bring him back."
With that, Li Zhirui transford into a streak of Spirit Light and disappeared, reappearing before Li Guangxing in no ti at all. Then he enveloped him in mana, bringing him back to the original spot, all within just a quarter of an hour.
Those clan mbers also understood the gravity of the situation, not daring to stay behind and cause trouble, each hurriedly passing through the space rift.
By the ti he brought Li Guangxing back, the place was already empty.
"Go!"
By now, the space rift had beco sowhat unstable, the edges visibly closing.
If they delayed any longer, the rift would completely close, leaving them in the Floating Light Realm!
Even if Li Zhirui was a Heavenly Immortal, facing an entire world alone was still extrely dangerous.
Just as the two crossed over, within re breaths, the space rift suddenly closed, and the nearby world reverted to its original appearance, with no trace of anyone ever being there.
Elsewhere, in the Primal Spirit Realm.
The first to erge among the clan mbers were anxiously waiting.
Li Xiuyuan didn’t see the figure of Li Zhirui among the crowd, and the space rift was about to close...
A booming sound went off in his head, leaving him dizzy, and he staggered, loudly asking, "Where is Ancestor Rui? Why hasn’t he co out yet!?"
"Clan Leader, Ancestor Rui is fine, it’s just that Li Guangxing was heavily injured, and he was worried Guangxing couldn’t make it, so he personally went to bring him back, and he’ll be back soon." Li Mingtang, seeing the clan leader’s expression, quickly explained in detail.
"As long as he’s fine, as long as he’s fine." Li Xiuyuan let his heart finally settle down.
Li Zhirui is truly the Heaven-Supporting Pillar of the family!
Although the family still has Li Zhixuan and Li Mingyao, if you also count Li Chengsheng, Li Chengshuo, and Shenling, who are far away in the starry sky, the Li family already has six Heavenly Immortals in total.
It seems even with the loss of one, it wouldn’t be a big deal, but as the leader of the clan, Li Xiuyuan knows that among these six Heavenly Immortal Ancestors, any could fall, except Li Zhirui!
Because compared to Li Zhirui, the contributions of the other five towards the family’s developnt are far inferior!
He can refine top-grade Immortal Pills, provide all sorts of Spiritual Objects, and more; there are countless things he does to aid the family’s progress, but most importantly, he has a heart constantly looking after and thinking about the family.
As for Li Chengsheng, Li Chengshuo, and Shenling, in their current state, they might as well have left the Li family. How many years has it been since they’ve returned?
If Li Zhirui were to die, their ties to the family would only be weaker; the first two might still rember their biological mother Jiang Fengwu, but the last truly has no attachnt to the Li family.
That’s why Li Xiuyuan showed such a loss of composure imdiately upon not seeing Li Zhirui.
Just then, two figures flew out from the space rift; it was Li Zhirui and Li Guangxing.
And after they landed, within re breaths, the rift closed with a boom!
This sudden change left many clan mbers dumbfounded for a while, unable to believe what the outco would have been if they were just a bit later.
Even Li Zhirui himself paused montarily, feeling a bit of luck rising in his heart.
"Ancestor Rui, your actions were far too risky," Li Xiuyuan said with a bitter smile.
Faced with such a situation, he couldn’t say much more and remained silent.
"Let’s return to Mount Wanxian first and organize the gains from this exploration of the Outer World."
Li Mingtang and many other clan mbers nodded excitedly; they had reaped quite a harvest this ti!
According to family rules, apart from copying various classics and thods and collecting so rather precious Spiritual Objects, all else could be kept in their possession.
Moreover, the family wouldn’t just take; they’d convert the value into Contribution Value based on the items, or clan mbers could voluntarily submit Spiritual Objects for Contribution Value instead.
So clan mbers wouldn’t have any resistance, but rather look forward to the family’s tally.
After all, the value of many Spiritual Objects isn’t as high as the family’s Contribution Value.
The group hastily left the station, and the Spirit Boat swiftly crossed the sky. In no ti, the group returned to Mount Wanxian and took seats in the family hall.
"Now, take out all the Spiritual Objects, Cultivation Techniques, and Classics you acquired from the Otherworld, and then categorize and plan them accordingly," Li Xiuyuan said, seemingly calm yet inwardly quite excited.
This was the family’s first exploration of the Outer World; if they could achieve abundant gains, it would result in a huge boost to the family’s power!
They had been thinking of this for a long ti and had wanted to open it early; now, the ti was finally ripe, and they could acquire so precious Spiritual Objects from it.
Watching as Spiritual Objects overflowed from Storage Magical Treasures, piling up into a small mountain-like heap, many clan mbers dropped their jaws in surprise.
"Did you raid a marketplace or sothing?" Li Xiuyuan asked in so astonishnt.
"The clan leader guessed right; I and a few clan mbers sched against a marketplace and seized these Spiritual Objects amidst the chaos. You might want to see if there are any needed by the family," Li Mingtang said, his expression humble but unable to suppress a smile at the corners of his mouth.
"You all have such courage, but it’s truly remarkable that your plan succeeded and you obtained so many Spiritual Objects."
Li Xiuyuan shook his head with a smile and said, "According to family rules, you can choose a fifth of all Spiritual Objects for yourselves; go ahead, don’t worry about us."
Li Zhirui just sat there silently, curiously glancing at Li Mingtang.
Courage, determination, planning, and strength; indeed a promising young mber, who may achieve sothing significant in the future.
As for the rest, there was nothing more to add; the family had long-established rules for all this, and they rely needed to follow them. He wouldn’t breach family regulations just for these Spiritual Objects, as they weren’t any treasures beneficial even to Heavenly Immortals.
