High-Level Martial Era

Chapter 1230: Chapter 574: Firewood Temple

However, as the de facto head of the household, Li Muhua is quite strict in managing the family, so the Li family members can only be considered spoiled, without anyone committing heinous crimes.

But Li Yuan can foresee that, if there are no constraints, in another one or two hundred years, the current hundreds of family members multiplying to millions is very normal.

By then, on one hand, the identity of being a member of the Li family will not be as dazzling within the Seven Star Civilization.

According to what Li Yuan knows, in the Divine Realm, some lineages of Heavenly Gods and Divine Kings are extremely large, occupying numerous star systems as fiefs for reproduction, which is quite normal.

On the other hand, trying to manage the entire family will become exponentially more difficult.

“I rarely see you all.”

“For most of you, this is the first time.” Li Yuan’s gaze swept across all the family members.

It made every family member unconsciously hold their breath.

“I just hope you remember that you are members of the Li family, which is an honor, but it is also a responsibility.”

“The Li family, first and foremost, is part of the Seven Star Civilization.”

“The family’s success today is also because of the Seven Star Civilization… the civilization comes before the family.” Li Yuan said slowly.

“You must not only abide by the family rules, but also follow the laws of the entire civilization. I will revise the family rules so that they cannot override the laws of civilization.” Li Yuan said slowly: “If there truly is a degenerate within the family that endangers the Seven Star Civilization, the family rules will not be lenient. Do you all understand?”

“Yes.” Hundreds of people responded respectfully.

Li Yuan’s words seemed to have an invisible magic, making them all remember firmly and truly embed them in their hearts.

After this, many members of the Li family noticeably restrained themselves in their actions outside.

…

After the banquet, many distant relatives took their leave, leaving only Li Changzhou, Li Muhua, and Li Yuan among others.

“Muhua.”

“Managing the family still needs to be strict.” Li Yuan entrusted, “Going forward, the family will become increasingly large, proliferating to ten thousand, a million, and even over a billion members is very normal.”

“Over a billion? In a single family?” Not only Li Muhua, but even Li Changzhou and Li Qianqian were somewhat astonished and shocked.

“A billion is even an understatement.” Liu Bing chuckled at the side, “In the Divine Realm, there is a powerful force named the ’Heavenly Dragon Divine Court,’ which occupies hundreds of star domains, proliferating across countless planets, over endless eons with untold numbers of clansmen… if traced to the origin, they are all descendants of the ’Dragon Ancestor.’

“Even some advanced Starry Sky Divine Countries, commanding a star domain, specifically select some star systems as the royal fief, which is quite normal.” Liu Bing said.

Everyone could not help but hold their breath.

“True God Tian Bing, advanced Starry Sky Divine Country, what is that?” Li Qianqian asked curiously.

Within the Seven Star Civilization, they considered themselves quite knowledgeable… but compared to the Divine Realm, their perspective was much lower.

“A nation established by a powerful True God, such as the Seven Star Divine Country, belongs to the elementary Starry Sky Divine Country.” Liu Bing said, “Nations established by Heavenly Gods are middle-level Starry Sky Divine Countries.”

“Divine Kings can command vast star domains, which are advanced Starry Sky Divine Countries.”

Heavenly Gods? Divine Kings?

The family listened quietly.

“Big brother’s strength is considered the most cherished peerless talent in the Chaos Divine Court.” Liu Bing smiled and said, “He currently possesses the strength of a Heavenly Divine, and becoming a Divine Monarch in the future will be effortless.”

“And, hopefully, he will become the exalted Divine King, carefree in the universe for millennia.”

“By then, imagine what high status the Li family would have? Once big brother establishes a Divine Kingdom, you will be the royal family.” Liu Bing said solemnly.

The family was a bit dazzled and giddy by the talk.

Royal family?

Is that the legendary royal family in the Divine Realm? It was something they had never dared imagine.

“Luckily.”

“Uncle, Aunt, you all live in the Mortal Domain.” Liu Bing smiled and said.

“Living in the Mortal Domain, is there any benefit?” Chen Hui asked, puzzled.

“Absolutely.”

“The Mortal Domain has natural protection.” Liu Bing smiled and said, “In the Divine Realm, major powers often engage in combat, trying to eliminate top talents in advance is common… with big brother’s extraordinary talent, attracting various assassination attempts is normal.”

“If you lived in the Divine Realm, those superpowers would easily discover your special relationship with big brother… no matter whether they capture you to threaten him or secretly control you, it’s possible since your power is too weak.” Liu Bing said angrily, “Like the Abyss Divine Court, once they take action, they have no bottom line, they are a bunch of scum, demons.”

Li Muhua and Li Qianqian shivered at the words.

“But you live in the Mortal Domain.”

“So, those hostile forces, even if they want to deal with you, can do nothing.” Liu Bing smiled and said, “After all, even a powerful Divine King cannot descend.”

Everyone felt a wave of gratitude in their hearts.

“Haha, Xiao Yuan, we were originally thinking about visiting the Divine Realm after becoming Pseudo-Gods, but now it seems we should stay in the Mortal Domain.” Li Changzhou laughed, “The Mortal Domain is quite good.”

“Hmm.”

“Uncle, the Mortal Domain also has many peculiar places, whereas the Divine Realm, apart from being busier, is not so different.” Li Yuan smiled and said, “Besides, when the opportunity arises in the future, I will take you to the Divine Realm.”

“Brother.”

Li Qianqian couldn’t help asking, “How long can you stay this time?”

The family all looked at Li Yuan.

“I will leave an incarnation, staying on Source Star.” Li Yuan smiled and said.

Back then, because the soul was weak, leaving a divine sense incarnation was hard to maintain.

But now, with Li Yuan’s strength, leaving a formidable incarnation is easy.

He can always stay with the family.

“Good.”

“Always here?” Chen Hui and Li Qianqian were excited and happy.

In recent years, the Li family has indeed grown stronger, but Li Yuan’s time away has also grown longer.
