"I heard you two little ones in the backyard."

A middle-aged woman's voice came from the backyard, which immediately attracted Shen Mu's attention, and he looked in the direction where the voice came from, it was a middle-aged beautiful woman wearing a green plain dress.

She looked at Shen Shi and Shen Miao in the front yard, with a smile on her face, but when she moved her gaze to Shen Mu standing at the door, the whole person was stunned, and then she tentatively shouted to Shen Mu.

"Mu, Mu'er, is that you?"

"It's me, Mother......"

Shen Mu looked at the somewhat thin woman, and for some reason, he felt a little uncomfortable.

After hearing Shen Mu's "mother", Chen Yuexin could no longer control the tears that burst out of her eyes, rushed to Shen Mu, and hugged her son, who was already much taller than herself.

At this moment when mother and son recognized each other, a tall figure rushed from the sky into the courtyard.

"Uncle, didn't you say that flying is forbidden within the family?"

Shen Miao looked at the person who came and complained to him dissatisfiedly.

"I am the head of the house, and I have the final say in everything."

The person who came was Shen Xing, burly, with a short beard and a majestic appearance. As soon as he came, he grabbed Shen Shi's collar and asked urgently, "Shi, I heard that your cousin is back?" ”

"Uncle, don't get excited, people are at the door."

Shen Shi was shaken by the man, and pointed to the entrance behind him, where Chen Yuexin was hugging Shen Mu and sobbing quietly.

Shen Mu also noticed the middle-aged man standing in the courtyard at this time, and his mouth snorted a few times, but finally he finally called out his father.

Shen Xing, who has always been vigorous and resolute, after hearing Shen Mu's "father", his steps were a little heavy, and after finally walking to the side of the mother and son, he didn't say anything, just patted Shen Mu's shoulder heavily, and said after a while.

"It's good to come back, it's good to come back."

After that, Chen Yuexin finally let go of Shen Mu, and the family returned to the room together, while Shen Shi and Shen Miao left in a funny way in order not to disturb their reunion.

One night, the Shen family's parents asked a lot of questions, and the general content was similar to what Shi asked, and Shen Mu also told the Shen family's parents one by one the statements that he had prepared in advance.

I don't know if he had any doubts, Shen Xing skillfully asked some things about Shen Mu when he was a child, but relying on the memory of his predecessor, Shen Mu answered like a stream, and Shen Xing gradually lost his doubts.

"However, family affection is such a wonderful thing."

After Shen Mu returned to the room they had arranged for him, he couldn't help but sigh.

For some reason, in getting along with Shen Xing and Chen Yuexin, he always felt warm in his heart, and there was an inexplicable sense of reassurance.

The next day, Shen Mu ended his practice early and came to the courtyard.

Today, Shen Xing is going to take Shen Mu to see the old ancestor, and by the way, take the identity jade plate that can represent the children of the Shen family.

After having that brand, Shen Mu can be regarded as the real Shen family, and he can use the resources of the Shen family to cultivate. So he was here early in the morning.

Finally, Shen Mu waited in the courtyard for a while, and Shen Xing finally came to the front yard with Chen Yuexin.

"Mu'er has been waiting for a long time, right?"

When Chen Yuexin saw Shen Mu, she immediately asked with concern.

"No, I've just arrived."

After Shen Mu finished speaking, he bowed to his parents and said goodbye.

"Our family doesn't like this, since you're ready, let's go."

Shen walked down the steps, helped Shen Mu up, and motioned for him to follow him.

"yes, okay."

Shen Mu silently followed behind Shen Xing, his father had always pursued efficiency in his work.

Chen Yuexin was a little worried in the back, and originally planned to go with her father and son, but was stopped by Shen Xing, telling her to recuperate in another courtyard with peace of mind.

"But you have to be prepared, I guess you're going to have a good day."

After leaving the courtyard not far away, Shen Xing said something that made Shen Shi confused.

"There are many people in the family, and the resources are only a little. Your presence is not a joy for some. But don't worry, I'll be there to help you. ”

Seeing Shen Mu's puzzled look, Shen Xing explained to him.

"Well, I'll keep an eye on it."

Shen Mu nodded, already predicting those possible situations in his heart, and came up with ways to deal with them one by one.

The Immortal Cultivation Family is actually a small microcosm of the Immortal Cultivation Realm, and the family members have come together by relying on some consistent interests, so if one day, the interests of the members are contrary to each other, then these people, even if they are related by blood, will draw their swords against each other and become opponents who may be more ferocious than outsiders.

"Here, this is the first place we are going to come to today, the place where the Shen family worships their ancestors, the ancestral worship hall."

Shen Mu followed Shen Xing and came to a bright hall.

In the hall, there are candles made of spirit animal grease burned everywhere, exuding a faint fragrance, with the decoration in the hall, quite a mysterious taste.

In the center of the main hall, there is a tall statue made of unknown materials, and in the hands of the statues, there are tablets of the ancestors of the Shen family.

Underneath the statue is an animal-skin chair on which sits a white-haired old man with squinting eyes.

On both sides of the old man, there were two rows of chairs, and at this moment, they were already full of people, except for a few elders with foreign surnames, most of them had similar characteristics that a family should have.

These people had different expressions, some were full of indifference, some looked at Shen Xing and cast supportive glances, while others just glanced at each other, which made people feel the full hostility conveyed in their eyes.

"It seems that this Shen family is not easy to do."

After Shen Mu saw the expressions of these people, he actually regretted returning home with some regret in his heart, he had always hated this kind of atmosphere of deceit, but once he came, he was safe.

Shen Xing patted Shen Mu's shoulder, and then came to the closest position to the white-haired old man and sat down.

After perceiving the movement, the old man on the main throne opened his eyes, and the essence flashed, and he immediately stared at Shen Mu.

"The foundation is complete!"

Shen Mu immediately felt the breath of the other party.

Among the vast majority of small families, foundation building consummation is already a ceiling-level combat power.

If you break through the Jindan, then you will be promoted to a medium-sized family and be valued by the superior sect. As for the family with the old monster at the level of Yuan Ying, they can already become a hegemon without looking at the face of the sect.

"Okay, is that your child who has been missing for more than ten years?"

The old man left his position and slowly walked towards Shen Mu.

"Yes."

Shen Xing answered the old man's question while winking at Shen Mu.

"I haven't worked for the family for ten years, and I don't want to meet my ancestors."

Shen Mu immediately understood his father's gaze and bowed deeply to the old man who walked over.

"Well, yes, look up."

After Shen Mu raised his head, he saw a figure suddenly come to him, a dry hand attached to Shen Mu's head, and suddenly, a breath wandered in Shen Mu's body.

After perceiving this aura, Shen Mu did not panic or resist, but just stood there with a calm face.

"The Green Lantern Demon King can't find out anything, the foundation is complete, why am I afraid?"

What Shen Mu was most worried about was being discovered by someone with the demonic energy on his body, but the last time the Green Lantern Demon King returned in vain, then the ancestor of the Shen family would naturally not gain anything.

"Qi refining is complete? Not bad, not bad! ”

The ancestor of the Shen family felt the breath in Shen Mu's body, and couldn't help but nod, his appreciation was beyond words.

After hearing the ancestor's words, Shen Xing was also proud, but many people couldn't sit still, with a look of "how is this possible", and their expressions became more and more vicious.

"But...... How a little erratic. Sometimes the Qi refining is complete, and sometimes it is only in the middle of Qi refining, which is very strange, did you use any secret technique to forcibly break through, or did you practice some weird exercises? ”

The ancestor of the Shen family looked solemn and looked pity.

"I don't know, boy."

Shen Mu didn't expect such a situation, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Could it be that in the eyes of others, his strength is presented like this?

"Well, that's a pity. It's a pity that your Heavenly Spirit Root's talent was wasted like this. But it's no wonder you, presumably more than ten years have passed, and you have something unspeakable to hide in order to survive. It's just, it's a pity. ”

The ancestor of the Shen family shook his head, emphasizing twice that it was a pity, and his face was full of regret.

"Wait, why aren't you even a Heavenly Spirit Root anymore?"

As soon as the ancestor of the Shen family said this, he was shocked, and many people present looked at Shen Mu on the field, and the corners of their mouths hooked up a satisfied smile.
