Chen Mufeng perked up his ears, waiting for these very words; instantly overjoyed, he bowed fervently, reciting a string of oaths, but Lu Yuanjiao simply waved his hand and said quietly:
"As for cultivation techniques, elixirs, and spiritual energy—go to Yuanping and fetch them. There's no need to report back!"
The Li Family was certainly generous in supporting cultivators of foreign surnames; even Lu Yuanjiao himself merely practiced the "River Qi Decision." Techniques of superior grade brought markedly greater strength, so Chen Mufeng hastily thanked him, departing in a rush.
Lu Yuanjiao watched the youth leave, then turned to Li Xuanxuan at his side, saying softly:
"How does this one compare to Uncle Donghe?"
Li Xuanxuan held a talisman from Green Pond, tracing the brushwork carefully, then replied:
"He is less steady than Donghe, lacks resilience, is inevitably arrogant—unlike the children of our family."
