I planted the spiritual roots for my people, and they bestowed upon me a body inscribed with incense

Seeing this, Li Yuan instantly understood what the Iron-Backed Bear meant; it seemed that the bear wanted to entrust the cub to him.

Unexpectedly, the Ironback Bear wasn't stupid either. Seeing this, Li Yuan stepped forward and took the Ironback Bear. The level two Ironback Bear saw that Li Yuan had no intention of harming the cub, and its unwilling eyes finally closed slowly.

Seeing this, Li Yuan dared not approach any further. The white snake slowly crawled to the side of the iron-backed bear and, after confirming that it was dead, Li Yuan dared to slowly walk forward.

Li Yuan then searched the snake's body for a moment and took a demon core containing powerful demonic energy into his hand. Upon seeing the demon core, the white snake's eyes lit up and its gaze towards the demon core became bright.

Seeing this, Li Yuanbingwei, not wanting to waste the demon core, threw it to the white snake and then began to search the iron-backed bear's body for useful materials.

The most precious part of this Ironbacked Wild Bear is its gallbladder, which contains the essence of this demonic bear. It is the most valuable item after removing the inner core of the demonic beast. As for the rest, only the bear's bones are worth some spirit stones.

By the time Li Yuan had collected all the materials worth spirit stones, the moonlight had already enveloped the entire land.

As for the bear's flesh and blood, Li Yuan buried it on the spot. When Li Yuan dissected the bear, he found that most of the bear's internal organs had been shattered. No wonder the bear did not fight back when Li Yuan provoked it earlier; it had known all along that its days were numbered.

It wasn't until noon the next day that Li Yuan finally returned to the small fishing village and the bamboo mountain. His first task was to settle the wild bear down.

The bear can't even open its eyes right now, so Li Yuan can only cook some spirit rice porridge to keep it alive for now. As for what happens later, he'll wait until it grows a little bigger.

If this wild bear grows up to become a level two demon beast, it will definitely be an excellent guardian spirit beast for the Li family. As for the white snake, Li Yuan often carries it with him, so it would be a good thing to add another spirit beast to the family.

As for the refining materials that Li Yuan obtained, he put them all into the family treasury. However, he also recorded Li Yuan's contribution points in the account book. As the family grows stronger in the future, if there are things that Li Yuan needs in the treasury, he can exchange them with his merit points.

After taking care of everything, Li Yuan arrived at a place on Bamboo Mountain rich in spiritual energy. At this time, the white snake was coiled up there and had fallen into a deep sleep. After swallowing the demon core, the white snake returned to Bamboo Mountain and fell into a deep sleep.

Seeing that he was in good condition, Li Yuan began to draw in the surrounding spiritual energy and prioritize it towards the place where the white snake was coiled. With this abundant supply of spiritual energy, it would be much easier for the white snake to break through if it really wanted to.

After finishing all this, Li Yuan slowly came down to the foot of Zhushan Mountain. As soon as he came down, he saw Zhou Tian guarding him.

Li Yuan slowly stepped forward in response.

Are you ready?

Upon hearing this, Zhou Tian nodded.

"Brother Li, my uncle has already chosen a place for my Zhou family, and I am ready."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan nodded.

"Alright, in that case, I'll go to the Household Registration Department now. Zhang Xuan from the Ministry of Revenue is a close friend of mine. With him around, there shouldn't be any problems with your Zhou family's affairs."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Tian's expression became even more excited, and he slowly cupped his hands and said:

"Although I, Zhou Tian, ​​will soon be establishing my own household, I will always remember the kindness the Li family has shown to my Zhou family. If Brother Li ever needs my help in the future, please come and ask me for help."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan nodded.

"Hahaha, brat, this was something I promised your senior Zhou family, don't worry."

After saying that, Li Yuan patted Zhou Tian on the shoulder.

"You know your own talent. If you want to join the Medicine Sect, I will do my best to find a way for you. Are you really sure?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Tian was tempted, but still nodded with a resolute look in his eyes.

Seeing this, he didn't say anything, nodded, and hurried out of the small fishing village.

"To help Zhou Tian establish a new family, I'll have to ask Brother Zhang if there are any complicated procedures to follow."

A day later, Li Yuan arrived in Qingshan County while sightseeing. The Ministry of Revenue was located in Qingshan County, but Li Yuan needed to find out its exact location first.

Half an hour later, Li Yuan arrived at a mansion. Although it was the Ministry of Revenue, it looked more like a private residence.

Li Yuan didn't break the rules. After having the guards at the gate announce his arrival, he wandered around the gate until Zhang Xuan slowly walked out after a while.

However, the scar the size of a tiger's mouth on Zhang Xuan's face, along with the completely changed aura he exuded, almost made Li Yuan not recognize him.

"Haha, Brother Li, it seems like we haven't seen each other much since the beast tide temporarily receded, right? What brings you here to see me today?" As he spoke, he led Li Yuan into the house.

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan returned the greeting with clasped hands.

"I was just missing Brother Zhang, so I came to visit since I had some free time today."

After the two were seated, Zhang Xuan slowly began to speak:

"Haha, Brother Li, just say what you want to say. As long as it's within my power, don't worry."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan slowly said:

"Haha, it's just that I have a junior who has established a Celestial Clan. I've come here to ask you, Fellow Daoist, what procedures are involved, or what we need to prepare?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuan waved his hands repeatedly.

"Haha, I thought it was something serious. There's no problem with this. As long as the founder of the Immortal Clan is a resident of Daqing and has not violated the laws of Daqing, that's fine. As for the other conditions, it's no problem for Brother Li to make the recommendation."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. It was the prince who personally ordered him to establish the Immortal Clan. As for what conditions were required, he really didn't know. Now that Zhang Xuan had explained, everything seemed to fall into place.

"Thank you, Brother Zhang. Since there are no problems, I will have my junior disciple come to the Household Registration Office in person another day."

Seeing that the matter was settled, Li Yuan took out twenty spirit stones from his storage bag and stuffed them into Zhang Xuan's hand. Now that Li Yuan had reached the eighth level of Qi Refining, and with his powerful spiritual sense, he could also sense that Zhang Xuan was probably not living a wealthy life.

Upon seeing Li Yuan hand over the spirit stones, Zhang Xuan quickly shook his head.

"Brother Li, what do you mean by this? This is simply my duty. How could I possibly accept this?" After saying this, he tried to return the spirit stones to Li Yuan.

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan quickly waved his hand.

"I see that Fellow Daoist Zhang's internal energy is weak and he seems to have some hidden injuries. Brother Zhang, please take the spirit stones as a token of my appreciation."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuan showed his gratitude.

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Li, true friendship is revealed in times of trouble. However, I do need spirit stones, Brother Li. I am grateful for your kindness this time and will never forget it."

After saying this, he was about to bow to Li Yuan, but upon seeing this, Li Yuan quickly pulled him up.

"Brother Zhang has helped me a great deal before, you mustn't do this." After Zhang Xuan returned to his seat, Li Yuan said slowly:

"Brother Zhang, the injuries on your face and the hidden wounds inside your body must have been there during the beast tide, right?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuan's face showed a bitter expression.
