Chapter 354 Various Aspects of Life Within the Clan

Meanwhile, in Li Family Village, a continuous feast had already been set up. It was not only for the clansmen, but even passersby could eat for free as long as they said auspicious words.

Undoubtedly, this was Li Changqing's arrangement.

While this is only the best in the Ming region, not the best in the world, its prestige is still considerable.

It wasn't a holiday at this time, but many members of the Li family who lived far away rushed back, making the scene even more lively than during the Lunar New Year.

When Li Qi returned, the midday banquet had already ended. At this time, many people were gathered in a corner of the ancestral hall, watching the craftsmen carve a stele on the spot. This was to carve a stele to commemorate him!
The craftsmen, on the other hand, were special envoys arranged by the Ming Dynasty, and they also had accompanying documents and records.

"Good good!"

When Li Changqing saw Li Qi return, he didn't say much, but simply said "good" three times in a row, his face glowing with joy, his heart filled with immense happiness.

Li Qi's grandfather, this taciturn and old-fashioned man, looked at Li Qi with a sudden realization. Although he didn't say anything, his expression at that moment spoke volumes.

As for the members of the Li family, those former relatives, they looked at Li Qi with intense disbelief, as if they were looking at a god.

While they had witnessed Li Qi's slash that killed Wang Taixu a little over a month ago, that was ultimately just a local battle in Tiancang. Although Li Qi had established an invincible reputation, the competition was not authoritative enough.

Now they know that with Li Qi's martial arts skills, achieving the highest honors in the imperial examinations is not difficult!

The pinnacle of the entire state!
This is certainly because the best talents are concentrated in Zhongzhou, but first place is first place!

The population of Nanzhou is close to six billion. Even if we only consider the younger generation, it is still an incredibly heavy burden.

They used to think that Tiancang was just a small place with many heroes, but now they can't think that way at all.

Li Qi was fully aware of the thoughts of everyone around him, but he didn't care. Instead, he focused his attention on the inscription being carved.

"Li Qi is a native of Tiannan, and he has great ambitions from a young age..."

Undoubtedly, this uses the most widely accepted version online today, but the people of Mingcheng must have communicated with the old man about it.

The fact that it's still engraved like this today clearly shows that the old man has also approved of it.

As for the reason behind it, Li Qi was well aware that it was to cover up some of his supernatural abilities in order to avoid some troubles and storms.

Undoubtedly, Li Changqing is a seasoned veteran.

After a while, Li Zheng returned, patted Li Qi's shoulder hard, and looked at him with a complicated expression.

Thinking back to the ancestral worship ceremony a few months ago, the two of them stood together in a corner like lackeys. Now, in the blink of an eye, Li Qi is about to have his own page in the family genealogy. This is just absurd.

Moreover, once this stone tablet was erected, it would be admired by people whenever sacrifices were performed, bringing boundless glory.

At that moment, he felt that the whole world was very unreal.

Further away, Xu Wei also returned at this time, but she did not approach. She only looked at Li Qi from afar, not wanting to lose her composure in front of him.

The past is the past. Even if the little kid in your memory suddenly transforms into the hero you admire, everything can never go back to the way it was before.

Their lives no longer intersect.

"It truly is a transformation from dragon to snake!"

"But all of this happened too fast, it hasn't been that long..."

In another corner, Aunt Lan stood under an old tree, looking in the direction of Li Qi, and murmured to herself.

Now that she's back to develop her business, it's impossible for her to bypass the Li family.

Thinking back to the first clean-cut young man I saw, then the hint of a kingly aura I saw, and then yesterday, when his sword struck down the storm and proved his invincibility among millions...

Everything happened so fast!
“I used to sit at the same table as Li Qi when I ate at banquets. We were all just lackeys. How did things suddenly turn out like this…”

In some places, the younger generation of the Li family were whispering among themselves.

"He and I used to be deskmates, and we copied each other's homework every day..."

“Who would have thought…”

Young members of the Mu and Zhang families, who had come to the feast, were also discussing the event with complex expressions. They had undoubtedly fantasized about something similar—rising from obscurity within their clans to become a figure of immense power and influence…

As a result, their fantasies only came true in their dreams, while some people actually made it real in the online world of Earth.

"His sword is invincible, achieving the highest honors in the imperial examinations..."

"If this era didn't have the Three Sages and Seven Immortals, would it be..."

At this moment, Mu Qingqing was also watching the tall and handsome young man from afar, but she did not approach him.

She used to be somewhat ambitious, but now she has none of that anymore.

"If time could turn back, we could meet again sooner..."

For some reason, Mu Qingqing thought of that afternoon in the park.

The weather that day was irritating, just like her mood at the time.

"Actually, if I had met him earlier and known that he was the person I knew back then, we would at most have become friends. It's impossible that I would have liked him before he even had his moment in the spotlight..."

"I'm just that kind of realistic person..."

"Ugh!"

At this moment, Mu Qingqing's gaze became increasingly unfocused.

She knew about Li Qi from the past, and she also knew about herself from the past.

Past, present, future...

At that moment, something seemed to converge in her heart.

How far will he go in the future?!

"Will you become a supreme being, stirring up storms, or will you achieve sainthood, standing atop the clouds, and decide the future direction of the universe?!"

For some reason, a bitter feeling welled up inside her, and she felt quite uncomfortable.

"In the future, I will probably be old, while he will still be in his prime..."

……

"Should I say at this moment, 'I can take his place?!'"

"When did I, Zhang Kuanglong, become a lackey...?"

"This shouldn't be! This shouldn't be!"

At this moment, Zhang Kuanglong also looked at the crowd and muttered to himself.

"But I have to admit, I was really too brave back then, daring to provoke him so arrogantly."

"His blade strikes with the power of heavenly thunder; his blade is truly terrifying..."

Zhang Kuanglong recalled the terrifying slash he had witnessed yesterday and couldn't help but shudder.

In that instant, he truly felt that Li Qi was wielding the might of heaven.

"The skill level of the strike I took back then is still increasing!"

……

"During the Chinese New Year, I was so strong that I was able to withstand one of his attacks!"

In the crowd, Li Youan looked at Li Qi's profile and couldn't help but have these thoughts.

"There's even a monument erected and a biography written, and the family genealogy is published separately. That's so awesome! If only the character '启' on it could be changed to '佑安' (You'an)!"

"This whole situation seems to be getting more and more outrageous..."
