He said respectfully, "Elder Pei, thank you for taking care of me. Without your help, I'm afraid I never would have made it to Foundation Establishment."
Pei Yingyao gave a slight nod and drank the tea.
"Li Chang'an, I only helped a few times. You made it this far on your own. Remember, heaven helps those who help themselves."
She, too, was somewhat surprised that Li Chang'an had reached Foundation Establishment.
She knew Li Chang'an had his share of fortuitous encounters, but his innate talent was poor, so his chances of a successful Foundation Establishment should have been very low.
However, just as she'd said, heaven helps those who help themselves.
Li Chang'an's path had been arduous, but he had never given up.
"Li Chang'an, what about the Cultivation Technique you're practicing now?"
Unsurprisingly, Pei Yingyao also asked about his Cultivation Technique.
For a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, one's Cultivation Technique was critically important.
