The courtyard is not too big, but it is very elegantly decorated. Various flowers and plants are planted, several of which are blooming, and the air is filled with the refreshing fragrance of flowers.
As soon as he entered the small courtyard, Zhang Ruochen's eyes were fixed on a beautiful woman watering the flowers.
Seeing this beautiful woman, a bright smile suddenly appeared on Zhang Ruochen's face.
He had specially asked Concubine Lin to take some elixirs to prolong life, so after so many years, Concubine Lin had not changed much in terms of appearance. She still looked very young, and was in excellent health, free from illness and pain.
Standing next to Concubine Lin was a very young woman with a slender figure, a soft appearance, and skin as smooth as gel. A pair of colorful wings rested on her back. She was none other than the peacock that Zhang Ruochen bought from Tianyue Tower with a huge sum of money. The half-human Kong Xuan.
¡°For so many years, Kong Xuan has been by Concubine Lin¡¯s side, responsible for taking care of Concubine Lin¡¯s food and daily life, and it can be said that he works hard without complaining.
What is somewhat beyond Zhang Ruochen's expectation is that Kong Xuan is now a Saint King. Although he is only one step Saint King, this is already very rare.
This proves that Zhang Ruochen made a very wise decision when he taught Kong Xuan the "Peacock Sacred Scripture". However, the "Peacock Sacred Book" is not complete, and it is not known what skills she practiced later.
Kong Xuan turned around and saw Zhang Ruochen at a glance, and he suddenly showed excitement.
"host¡¡"
Kong Xuang just wanted to shout, but Zhang Ruochen stopped him.
Zhang Ruochen stepped lightly and slowly walked to Concubine Lin, watching quietly from the side as Concubine Lin watered the flowers.
At a certain moment, Concubine Lin turned around and finally discovered Zhang Ruochen.
"boom."
Concubine Lin¡¯s attention was completely focused on Zhang Ruochen, and the kettle in the water slipped and fell to the ground.
"Mother, Chen'er is back." Zhang Ruochen called softly with soft eyes.
Concubine Lin looked very excited and hugged Zhang Ruochen, "Chen'er, you're back, aren't you dreaming?"
Over the years, she has always missed Zhang Ruochen and often dreamed about Zhang Ruochen's return. She was really afraid that she was dreaming now and that Zhang Ruochen would disappear again after waking up from the dream.
Zhang Ruochen could clearly feel Concubine Lin's love and longing for him. He couldn't help hugging Concubine Lin tightly and said, "Mother, you are not dreaming. It is really your Chen'er who is back. The child is unfilial, so let Mother Dear, you are worried."
"It will be good to come back, it will be good to come back, our family can finally be together again." Concubine Lin was so excited that tears could not help but flow from her eyes.
Zhang Shaochu came over and comforted him: "Ms. Concubine Lin, you should be happy that your ninth brother is back. Why are you still crying?"
Concubine Lin quickly stretched out her hand to wipe away her tears and said, "Yes, I'm happy. I'm just too happy. Come on, sit inside. Kong Xuan, go make some tea."
"Yes." Kong Xuan responded with a smile.
Entering the house, Concubine Lin held Zhang Ruochen's hand until she sat down. Even if this was really a dream, she wanted to stay with Zhang Ruochen for a while.
"Chen'er, when you come back this time, you won't leave immediately, right?" Concubine Lin looked at Zhang Ruochen expectantly.
Zhang Ruochen¡¯s eyes were soft, he smiled slightly and said, ¡°Mom, don¡¯t worry, I will stay more time this time to accompany you well.¡±
Not long after, Kong Xuan came over with a bronze tray containing a pot of tea and three teacups.
Putting the tray on the table, Kong Xuan picked up the teapot, poured tea into three teacups, and placed them in front of Concubine Lin, Zhang Ruochen and Zhang Shaochu respectively.
"Kong Xuan, you have worked hard these years!" Zhang Ruochen said with a smile.
Kong Xuan quickly shook his head and said: "It's not hard, this is what a slave should do."
At the beginning, Zhang Ruochen bought her from Tianyue Tower and taught her the "Peacock Sacred Scripture". She has always kept this kindness in mind and is willing to be a slave to repay Zhang Ruochen.
With a flip of his hands, Zhang Ruochen took out a colorful holy robe and handed it to Kong Xuan, saying, "This is for you. I will need you to take good care of my mother for me in the future."
"This is too valuable, I can't have it." Kong Xuan declined.
Concubine Lin reached out to take the colorful holy robe, stuffed it into Kong Xuan's hand, and said, "Chen'er gives it to you, just take it."
Seeing this, Kong Xuan could no longer refuse, so he had to accept the colorful holy clothes and said, "Thank you, Master, for the gift."
Zhang Ruochen smiled and nodded. He was a person with a clear sense of grudges and grievances. Although Kong Xuan was a maid, he never regarded her as a slave. He saw Kong Xuan's kindness to Concubine Lin, so he naturally wanted to show it.
&nb??Exudes powerful majesty.
"Lingxi, don't forget that you are also a disciple of the Mu family. It would be outrageous to threaten your own people for the sake of an outsider." Mu Xinghe said in a low tone.
Mu Lingxi did not flinch, even if she wanted to refute.
Zhang Ruochen took a step forward, reached out to stop Mu Lingxi, and said loudly: "Lingxi is my Taoist companion. What's wrong with me coming here to see her?"
"That's nonsense, I never agree with this." Yun Zheng said angrily.
Mu Xinghe stood up, exuding an extremely terrifying aura, his eyes bursting with sharp light, looking directly at Zhang Ruochen, like a ferocious beast staring at its prey.
"Zhang Ruochen, you can take possession of me, the heavenly daughter of the Mu family, at will. Do you think you are worthy of Lingxi?"
Mu Xinghe is extremely domineering at the moment and wants to use his power to overwhelm others.
In his eyes, Zhang Ruochen is just a junior. Even if he has extraordinary talents, how far can he grow in such a short time?
????????????????????????????????? He is already the Nine-Step Holy King who rules the world, and is not far from the Condensation Dao Domain, enough to crush Zhang Ruochen at will.
Facing the pressure of Mu Xinghe's momentum, Zhang Ruochen appeared calm and unaffected.
Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen exuded a powerful aura, like a giant volcano that had been silent for thousands of years, suddenly erupting.
¡°Click, rub, rub.¡±
Mu Xinghe involuntarily took a few steps back, with a look of horror in his eyes.
Previously, Zhang Ruochen was very low-key and completely restrained, so that he seriously misjudged Zhang Ruochen's cultivation strength.
"This kind of smell"
In the hall, everyone in the Mu family changed their expressions.
"How could Zhang Ruochen be so strong? It's impossible. When he left Kunlun Realm, his cultivation had only reached the Xuanhuang Realm." Yun Zheng was inexplicably horrified. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
