Chapter 973: Defensive Wall (I)
Li Xuanxuan looked forward to this moment every year. A flash of surprise crossed his eyes, and he quickly asked in a low voice. "What kind of techniques did you receive?"
Li Jiangqian, familiar with the three elders, responded swiftly, "A sixth-grade Purple Mansion Realm technique, the Heavenly Scripture of the Dimming Li Day!"
"Excellent!" Li Xuanxuan was instantly elated, joy flashing across his face. A Purple Mansion Realm technique was an incomparable treasure.
Li Zhouwei nodded, a faint smile appearing as he spoke softly, "It truly is of the Purple Mansion Realm... how many secret techniques does it contain?"
Purple Mansion Realm techniques were known for their length. After a brief moment of thought, Li Jiangqian replied respectfully, "Father, four secret techniques."
"Four," said Li Zhouwei, nodding thoughtfully.
Seizing the pause in conversation, Li Shuwan spoke in a gentle voice, "Honored elders, I received a sixth-grade Purple Mansion Realm technique called the Houshu Golden Book, which contains five secret techniques, as well as a volume titled Profound Shamanic Spells."
Li Zhouwei had expected this and quietly contemplated the names of the techniques. Li Xuanxuan chuckled and sighed, "Good... Our family received spell arts through the talisman seeds... it seems there were only a few in earlier generations... perhaps these are different!"
Li Zhouwei nodded, his thoughts still lingering on the five secret techniques in the Houshu Golden Book, My Radiant Essence Scripture had nine techniques, Jiangqian received four, and Shuwan has five... Could it be that her innate ability surpasses Jiangqian’s... That would be a good thing.
Li Zhouwei understood his younger son well. The boy had a difficult temperament, but thankfully he wasn’t one to lash out at others. It was good to have someone among the juniors who could act as a counterweight and prevent him from acting too willfully.
