235: Ancestor, is this really the right thing to do?

Hearing Shen Min's impassioned voice, Shen Nian's mouth twitched.

"What kind of melodramatic line is that!"

"If we're not going to be epic, can we stop trying to force it!"

However, he didn't say anything; after all, he was his own Old Ancestor. When he saw Ye Xuanyi, he understood everything. The Old Ancestor had long intended for him to become the Clan Chief. It seemed that the previous trip to kill the Azure Profound Dragon Demon Emperor, aside from venting his own anger, was also because he had his eyes on the opponent's Dragon tendons.

Seeing Shen Nian's expression, Old Man Tianji couldn't help but stifle a laugh. Shen Min also awkwardly withdrew his hand and said, "Little Nian, where is the cangtian token? This time, we can wear it openly and legitimately."

Hearing this, Shen Nian thought for a moment and did not refuse Shen Min.

He took out the ancient token that had fused with his flesh and blood from within his body and hung it at his waist. An aura of supreme Dao flowed around the ancient token.

"It seems the Old Ancestor knows that Cangtian Palace is inside the cangtian token..." Shen Nian had been observing the changes in Shen Min's expression throughout the process and discovered a look of reverence in the other's eyes.

Shen Min took a deep breath and said, "Little Nian, you must keep the cangtian token safe. In the future, it will give you a big surprise!"

"Mm." Shen Nian nodded.

"Alright, stop chatting, it's about time," Old Man Tianji said.

"Let's go."

At this very moment.

Around the Demon Slaying Platform, divine light swirled, and the air was filled with powerful auras. There were five or six Hedao experts alone. Their figures stood in various directions, with the elites of their respective factions behind them.

From the Fentian Holy Land, Zuo Wuhen led the Grand Elder, their expressions respectful.

Beside him were the two sect leaders of the Great Evolution Sword Sect.

"Senior Sister, has Zuo Wuhen really acknowledged Young Clan Master Shen as his Revered Master?" Moon Cicada Sword Immortal couldn't help but ask via voice transmission. After hearing the news from the Fentian Holy Land, she was completely stunned.

"Human Emperor?"

"A single sentence caused that Peerless Dao Integration expert to perish!"

"Killing a Void Return Fifth Layer expert in seconds!"

Thinking about it, Young Clan Master Shen had been polite to her. If it happened again, she definitely wouldn't dare to speak to Shen Nian in that tone; she simply couldn't bear the consequences.

"I know Zuo Wuhen; he can be called an ambitious hero. To make him willingly acknowledge a Revered Master, perhaps there are other reasons..."

"However, Moon Cicada, I advise you to put those thoughts away. After today, when we see Young Clan Master Shen again, even I will have to perform a great bow..." Jun Ruyan replied softly. At this moment, she was still a Clone, her face covered by a white veil, making her features unclear.

Moon Cicada Sword Immortal was stunned for a moment, looking at her Senior Sister in disbelief.

"What do you mean?"

"Perform a great bow?"

"Because of the Human Emperor status?"

"That would be reasonable."

"It's not just the Human Emperor status; after today, we must change how we address him to Lord Emperor Shen..." Jun Ruyan looked at the Demon Slaying Platform and added.

"??" Moon Cicada Sword Immortal's face showed terror, and she immediately looked toward the Demon Slaying Platform.

"Emperor Shen?"

Very few in the Human Race can be called Emperor. Aside from the heads of the few Ancient Desolate Families, only a few Peak Hedao experts remain...

"Then that means!"

"This isn't a coming-of-age ceremony; it's the inauguration ceremony for the Head of the Shen Family!!"

And on the very edge was the most mysterious Holy Land in Eastern Profound, the Weishuo Holy Land.

This Holy Land had very few people; each generation only had one Disciple. Therefore, for so many years, it had almost no presence in Eastern Profound. If it weren't for the great war 50,000 years ago, where the Old Ancestor of Weishuo defeated three female Demon Emperors single-handedly, no one would have recognized the status of this Holy Land.

A man with thick eyebrows and big eyes carried a large flag. Looking at the figures around him, he couldn't help but reveal an excited, lecherous smile and said.

"Revered Master, the chicks here are all so hot!"

Beside him, a short old man also couldn't help but nod, then said solemnly, "Little Blade, don't blame Revered Master for not warning you, but stay far away from anyone associated with the Shen Family. This is an ancestral teaching, understand?"

"Back in the day, the Old Ancestor of Weishuo was hung up and beaten, and his balls were even cut off!!"

Speaking of this, the old man couldn't help but shiver.

Little Blade immediately nodded, "Revered Master, don't worry, I understand. Look next to us, these are two top-tier beauties, Moon Cicada Sword Immortal and Jun Ruyan. Why don't they offend Young Clan Leader to death? Otherwise, the two of us, Revered Master and apprentice, could lead the charge!"

"Force ourselves on her!"

Hearing this, the old man's eyes also lit up, but the next second, he felt a chill wash over him.

"Who are you going to force yourselves on?" Moon Cicada Sword Immortal spoke coldly.

Little Blade and the old man immediately stared at their noses and hearts, keeping silent with great tacit understanding, as if nothing had happened.

Beside the three major factions were the five cities, including the Canglan Mu Family, the Lingwu City Xu Family, and so on...

This left many Cultivators from other regions feeling shocked.

"Hiss..."

"The top factions of Eastern Profound are all here, right? The three Holy Lands, the five city Families, and the Ancient Desolate Ji Family..."

A Void Return Cultivator was surprised. Looking at those terrifying figures, he didn't dare to imagine who would dare to cause trouble here.

Especially after seeing the figures of the Shen Family members, everyone gasped in cold air.

"Is this the foundation of the Shen Family? No wonder they are the strongest of the Human Race. Just in terms of Hedao experts, I'm afraid there is no one with more than the Shen Family..."

"That's not the key point; the key is that the Shen Family's experts are all Peerless Dao Integration!"

Just then.

The Shen Family Elders appeared together beside the Demon Slaying Platform, standing in the air. Their ancient robes fluttered, and they exuded infinite Divine Might. Their bodies were surrounded by the rosy light of Dao principles, like ancient Saints standing in the firmament.

The leader was the Shen Family Grand Elder, Shen Yang.

"Grand Elder, what does the Old Ancestor mean? Is this still a coming-of-age ceremony?"

"That's right, even the Demon Slaying Platform is being used. Could the Old Ancestor be intending to..."

Once these words were spoken, the Shen Family Elders all showed expressions of disbelief. Although they acknowledged Shen Nian from the bottom of their hearts, wasn't this too fast?

"Being the youngest Human Emperor in history wasn't enough?"

"And he wants to be the youngest Head of the Shen Family in history?"

They didn't dare to think about it. After today, the Heavenly Demon Realm would inevitably list Shen Nian as the number one target for assassination. Regardless of talent, just these two identities alone would make them pay any price.

Shen Yang also frowned, glanced at the empty Demon Slaying Platform, and thought to himself.

"Old Ancestor, is this really okay..."

Below them.

An endless sea of figures filled the entire Ancient Martial Plaza. Located at the very end were the Disciples of the three branch families of the Shen Family. Everyone was high-spirited, looking up at the Demon Slaying Platform with expressions of worship.

Although many were seeing their Young Clan Leader for the first time, the news about Shen Nian over the past few days had already conquered them.

In front of them were the Disciples of the Shen Family main lineage. There were only a few hundred of them, but they exuded a more terrifying aura than the thousands of branch Disciples. Each one of them was a favored child of heaven when placed in the outside world, and the weakest among them had Nascent Soul cultivation.

The five people leading them were the five great sequences of the Shen Family.

Shen Ye had a smile on his lips, and Shen Wudao stood with his hands behind his back...

"Something's not right. Isn't this coming-of-age ceremony a bit too grand? Except for those guarding key points who couldn't leave, all the Cangtian Twelve Generals who could come have come..." Shen Qianqiu looked at the figures at the very front exuding Killing Intent, holding various weapons—axes, blades, swords, hammers...

Is this still a Young Clan Leader's coming-of-age ceremony?

Shen Ye narrowed his eyes and smiled, "The youngest Human Emperor in history naturally needs a grand display. Holding a coming-of-age ceremony on the Demon Slaying Platform has already set a precedent for our Shen Family..."

"Little Wu Wu, will you go first later?"
