Chapter 261: Li Family Development Plan
On this day, there was no fighting or killing in the Li family. Everyone laughed and enjoyed the rare reunion at this feast.
Li Wei only went in for a few minutes, then emerged as his descendants looked on with reluctance.
"Whew."
This time, he truly wiped the dirt off Li Yaoqing's face, gave each of the children some food from his own chopsticks, wolfed down a bowl of rice with gusto, took a large gulp of wine, let out a joyful laugh, and casually gave each of the Seven Ironclad a knock on the head.
Before leaving, he casually added the voice of an elder urging them to get married and have children.
"Hurry up and give your ancestor some grandchildren! I can only appear again when I'm wealthy!"
Li Wei grinned mischievously.
Even Li Dalong and his wife nodded in deep agreement. It's unclear why the Li family's bachelors were also nodding along; how shameless!
...
After the feast.
Azure Cloud region became unusually quiet. The Wu Clan had originally planned a blitzkrieg to take the Azure Cloud region in one fell swoop.
According to Li Yaowen, it was Yu Xian's selfless act that created this opportunity for the Azure Cloud region. Since the blitzkrieg failed, it would become a war of attrition. For a long time to come, no one would dare provoke the Li family.
Li Wei and his clan members all shared this view.
As soon as dawn broke, Li Dalong took a few people and rushed to the ancestral hall.
"Ancestor, we've all returned, and it's time for the family to have a new head!"
Li Wei glanced at his clan members. In other families, when choosing a successor, people would practically fight tooth and nail. But in the Li family, everyone lowered their heads and took a step back, as if there were a hot potato in front of them.
"Hmm? Where is everyone?"
In the end, Li Kuangtu looked around in bewilderment. Just moments ago, he was worried about being thrown into the Heaven-Piercing Coffin, but now he was the only one left. By the time he came to his senses and tried to step back, it was too late.
The whole family looked at him with expressions of relief and satisfaction.
"Kuangtu has finally grown up. He's become a responsible man."
Li Dalong gave him a thumbs-up.
[Your family has appointed a new head of the family, Li Kuangtu!]
"I..."
Li Kuangtu's facial muscles twitched. He looked at the elders. In other families, the head of the family commanded absolute obedience, but what use was it for him to be the head? No one in the whole family, except for Li Changsheng, would listen to him. He had long heard that it was a fine tradition in the family that whoever was foolish enough became the head of the family, working harder than a farm ox.
The moment he became the head of the family, he was instantly promoted to the most powerful errand boy.
Half a day later.
Li Kuangtu sat in the spacious seat of the head of the family, looking bewildered as he managed the family estate in Green Valley Town with the whispered guidance of his wife and the help of Huang Xiujin.
In front of him were the orderly ranks of the people of Green Valley Town.
There were also those who had come to help the Li family, requesting to join their forces or become vassals.
He felt as lost as if he had stumbled into an unfamiliar world.
...
Inside the screen, Li Wei zoomed in on the screen, watching the Li family.
Since his return home, the Li family's descendants had gained a lot of experience over the past hundred years.
[Your descendants have compiled their ideas and drafted a Li Family Development Plan. Please review it.]
The cover of a book appeared on the screen; clicking the mouse allowed him to turn the pages. It seemed to be about a thousand pages long.
Li Wei also gave it a quick look.
His eyes grew brighter and brighter!
According to the general outline of the plan, they had vast resources and intended to develop the family into a massive clan, with their territory expanding to cover even Tailin Town!
The area would become as large as an entire city.
They even planned to capture a Wu Clan priest and a group of Wu Clan members who could create forests out of flat ground, to expand the former Silver-Iron Forest and allow a million demonic beasts to settle there.
Moreover, forces like 'Dawn' would establish their headquarters within the family's territory.
If all of this were truly accomplished.
The Li family's defenses alone would be enough to render the Wu Clan, who invaded Azure Cloud, helpless and unable to attack.
Their Li family would truly stand at the pinnacle of Azure Cloud!
"Build!"
The Li family was truly different from other families. Others developed their family first, then built their territory, slowly growing stronger. The Li family, on the other hand, had walked through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, engaged in a frenzy of primitive accumulation, and only then returned to build.
Although the blueprint was grand, the Li family absolutely had sufficient capital!
Li Dalong had an army of zombies that nearly filled the Heaven-Piercing Coffin. They knew no fatigue and were practically the perfect labor force.
Watching the family develop in an orderly manner, and seeing that his descendants weren't causing trouble outside.
Li Wei also had a rare moment of relaxation.
"I've played so much that my back aches."
Stretching lazily, Li Wei walked out of the room and asked Yuexian to cook him a pot of fish soup and some steamed white rice.
By the time he returned to the family, an hour had passed.
The game's visuals were developing rapidly.
The terrain outside the Li family residence, originally scarred and uneven due to the war, had been flattened by cultivators. All the cultivators were busy with construction, and the Li family's forces were establishing their home here.
