190: Our Shen family are all people of high moral character.

Shen Qianqiu immediately became obedient, looking straight ahead without saying a word, feeling a bit depressed inside.

"I didn't even say anything."

"Sigh."

Lord Wudao's temperament is just too cold. He originally wanted to follow Shen Wudao, but he really couldn't get along with him.

"Hahaha, that's what you get for talking so much. Lord Wudao is still here; keep flapping your gums, and one day you'll get beaten up in the Heaven Abyss without even knowing what happened." The fourth sequence, Shen Feiyan, immediately laughed.

Soon, that White-robed Figure in the sky descended.

Silence.

Speechless.

Shen Min looked at the white-robed person before him, who was now a young man, and a trace of trance appeared in his eyes, as if he had seen his most beloved grandson from years ago, Shen Nian's father, Shen Taixu.

After seeing Shen Nian return with his own eyes, the heart that had been tightly coiled for six years finally relaxed.

"It's good that this death tribulation has passed..."

The matter of Shen Nian's death tribulation was known only to him and Old Man Tianji; no one else knew about it.

"Has the Young Clan Leader returned?" After returning to his senses, Shen Min walked up to Shen Nian on tiptoes, revealing a fawning expression as he smiled.

At this scene, everyone in the Shen Family looked calm, as if it were perfectly normal.

But Mu Wanqing almost widened her eyes, her mind going blank.

What did I just see!

The Shen Family Old Ancestor, the number one person in the Human Race's Talisman Dao, is actually acting like this in front of Master...

Who is whose Old Ancestor, anyway!

She had heard that the Shen Family Old Ancestor doted on Shen Nian, but she didn't expect it to be to this extent.

"Hmm." Shen Nian nodded, his expression calm.

"It's good that you're back. You haven't eaten yet, right? Come, come, let's have a meal first. Old Ancestor personally cooked a few main dishes." Shen Min said with a smile, then grabbed Shen Nian and turned around.

His hands were covered with wrinkles and felt somewhat coarse to the touch.

For the first time, a complex emotion appeared in Shen Nian's eyes. In his memory, when he left, although the Old Ancestor had white hair, his face was not as old as it was now, and his body was even slightly hunched, especially his hands at this moment.

A strange stinging pain in his heart made him raise an eyebrow.

"Why have you aged so much?" Shen Nian asked.

Shen Min feigned anger and said, "You brat, your words are still so unpleasant to hear. Where is Old Ancestor old? There are still people outside who call me 'little brother'."

"..." Shen Nian was speechless, but after being handled like this, he felt a bit better, and a trace of a smile appeared on the corners of his mouth.

Being able to joke meant the problem wasn't too big.

Although Jiang Churan, who was nearby, really wanted to go and eat too, she wasn't stupid; she knew the current atmosphere wasn't suitable for asking for a free meal.

"Everyone disperse. In a few days, we will hold a make-up coming-of-age ceremony for the Young Clan Leader, and then he will enter the Cangtian Mountain to cultivate the Emperor Scripture..."

Shen Min's voice rang out, and his figure, along with Shen Nian, disappeared from the spot.

"A coming-of-age ceremony can be made up?"

"Ah, this..."

"But having said that, on the day of the coming-of-age ceremony, one can be challenged by peers and cannot refuse. What is the Old Ancestor trying to do..."

Even Shen Wudao frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled by the Old Ancestor's actions.

If he only wanted to cultivate the Emperor Scripture, there was no need for any coming-of-age ceremony. Why go through this unnecessary formality? He could have just taken Shen Nian to the Cangtian Mountain, and that would be it.

Although it didn't conform to the rules, if he said so, who would dare to say anything more?

Hasn't Old Ancestor Shen Min always been like this all these years?

"Little Wu Wu, is Old Ancestor trying to let Younger Brother Nian establish his prestige? But that's not right either. Void Return First Layer isn't enough to convince the masses..." Shen Ye rubbed his bald head, looking puzzled.

"If you dare to call me that again, I will tear your mouth off."

After Shen Wudao said this coldly, his figure dissipated from the spot.

"Hey, hey, hey, look at you. Last night when we were drinking, you were calling me 'Little Ye Ye', you person!"

At this moment.

In the Xuantian Realm, located in the deepest part, inside an ancient palace near the Cangtian Mountain, there was a backyard permeated by Dao principles.

Divine swords of all kinds were scattered everywhere here; the weakest ones were of Soul Transformation grade, and some were even top-tier existences among Void Return. They were just left on the ground like that. Not far away, there was a wooden table made of Bodhi wood, on which were placed pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, as well as many discarded paper balls.

Shen Nian looked at everything familiar before him with a soft expression, as memories from six years ago kept flooding back.

He used to practice sword here.

On a small stone stool in the distance, some food was placed. Shen Min sat on it, and Shen Nian also sat down. Just as Shen Min wanted to pick up food for Shen Nian, he discovered that Shen Nian had already picked up the food he disliked the most but was the most nourishing.

For a moment, Shen Min's movements froze, then he revealed a smile and put it on his own plate.

The two of them ate like this, not knowing what to say, and for a time, the atmosphere became a bit awkward.

"The wound on your hand, how did you get it?" Shen Nian asked expressionlessly after swallowing a mouthful of food.

Shen Min looked at Shen Nian with some surprise and said, "Good lad, you even noticed such a small thing. Good eyesight."

His hands were covered by a layer of Dao principles. Beneath them, on the back of both hands, there was a scar that could not heal, constantly being eroded by a strange power.

"It's nothing. I drew two talismans and sent away two beasts of the Azure Black Dragon Clan. I didn't control the commotion well and was discovered by a few old beasts. I fought them once across space and time. It's a small injury; even if I fell, the wound would be bigger than this. It doesn't matter..." Shen Min picked up food and ate, saying it casually, not caring at all.

The two beasts he spoke of were the younger brother of the Azure Black Dragon Clan Chief and his uncle; both were Yao Emperor-level great beasts.

But Shen Min spoke lightly, as if what he had done was nothing remarkable at all.

If this were to spread, it would surely shake the Five Domains!

The number one person of the current Shen Family, without needing to take action personally, used two talismans to suppress and kill two Yao Emperors across space. How terrifying!!

"Why are you killing Yao Emperors for no reason?" Shen Nian asked calmly, but there was an inexplicable killing intent in his heart. This was anger he felt towards the Yao Race, not driven by the System.

"Didn't they send two little loaches to find you? The Shen Family are all refined people; it is impolite not to reciprocate," Shen Min said while chewing his food.

Hearing this, Shen Nian frowned and said coldly, "You should just be honest now that you're older. Killing Yao is something for young people to do. Only this once."

"Haha, good!" Shen Min was not angry at all, but nodded in agreement. His movement was too big, causing him to spit out a few grains of rice, which he instantly caught, put into his mouth, and giggled, "Almost wasted it..."

Looking at him like this, seeing that he hadn't changed at all, Shen Nian smiled slightly, and then heard Shen Min say.

"Little Nian, are you tired of being the Young Clan Leader? If you are tired, let's stop being it. It's okay, with Old Ancestor here, whoever becomes the Young Clan Leader wouldn't dare to give you a hard time!"

"If you're not tired, then continue being it. By the way, after the coming-of-age ceremony, you might as well just be the Clan Chief. Anyway, the Clan Chief and the Young Clan Leader are about the same..."

Shen Nian didn't speak, but thought about a lot. Thinking about it now, everything made sense.

The Old Ancestor must have seen his death tribulation and deliberately provoked him into becoming the Young Clan Leader, adding the Luck of the entire Shen Family to him, and with the cangtian token as a variable, wanted to increase the probability of him passing the tribulation...
