The courtyard is not too big, but it is arranged very elegantly. Various flowers and plants are planted, and several species are blooming. The air is filled with the refreshing fragrance of flowers.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Zhang Ruochen's eyes were fixed on a beautiful woman who was watering 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, from the outside alone, Lin Fei has not changed much, she still looks very young, in excellent health, and has no illness or pain.

Beside Lin Fei stood a very young woman with a slender figure, a gentle appearance, and a pair of colorful wings on her back. She was no one else, but she was Kong Xuan, a peacock semi-human that Zhang Ruochen bought from Tianyuelou for a large sum of money.

Over the years, Kong Xuan has been with Lin Fei, responsible for taking care of Lin Fei's diet and daily life, and is hardworking.

What was somewhat beyond Zhang Ruochen's expectations was that Kong Xuan is now a saint king. Although he was only one step to a saint king, it was already very rare.

This proves that it was an extremely wise decision by Zhang Ruochen to teach the "Peacock Holy Book" to Kong Xuan. However, the "Peacock Holy Book" is not complete, and I don't know what skills she practiced later.

Kong Xuan turned his head and saw Zhang Ruochen at a glance, and immediately showed excitement.

"host……"

Kong Xuan was about to shout, but was stopped by Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen took a light step and slowly walked to Concubine Lin, watching Concubine Lin watering the flowers.

At one moment, Concubine Lin turned around and finally found Zhang Ruochen.

"Bang."

Concubine Lin's attention was completely focused on Zhang Ruochen, and the kettle in the water slid down and fell to the ground.

"Mom, Chen'er is back." Zhang Ruochen's eyes were soft and he called softly.

Concubine Lin seemed very excited and hugged Zhang Ruochen, "Chen'er, you are back, aren't you dreaming for your mother?"

Over the years, she has always missed Zhang Ruochen very much, and often dreamed that Zhang Ruochen came back. She was really afraid that she was dreaming now. After waking up, Zhang Ruochen would disappear again.

Zhang Ruochen could clearly feel the love and longing for Concubine Lin for him, and couldn't help but hug Concubine Lin tightly and said, "Mom, you are not dreaming, it's really your Chen'er back. My child is unfilial, so you are worried about me."

"It's good to come back, it's good to come back, our family can finally be reunited again." Lin Fei was so excited that tears flowed out of her eyes.

Zhang Shaochu came over and comforted him, "Empress Lin, I should be happy when I am back. Why are you crying?"

Concubine Lin quickly reached out to wipe away her tears and said, "Yes, happy, I'm so happy that I'm going to sit in it. Kong Xuan, go and make tea."

"Yes." Kong Xuan replied with a smile.

After entering the house until she sat down, Lin Fei always held Zhang Ruochen's hand. Even if it was really a dream, she wanted to stay with Zhang Ruochen for a while.

"Chen'er, I won't leave immediately when I come back this time, right?" Lin Fei looked at Zhang Ruochen with hope.

Zhang Ruochen's eyes were soft, he smiled slightly, and said, "Mother, don't worry, I will leave more time this time to accompany you."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Lin felt relieved, "That's good, that's good."

Soon, Kong Xuan came over with a bronze tray, which contained a pot of tea and three tea cups.

Putting the tray on the table, Kong Xuan lifted the teapot, poured tea into the three tea cups, and put it in front of Lin Fei, Zhang Ruochen and Zhang Shaochu.

"Kong Xuan, thank you for your hard work over the years!" Zhang Ruochen said with a smile.

Kong Xuan shook his head quickly and said, "No need to work hard, this is what a servant should do."

At the beginning, Zhang Ruochen bought her from Tianyuelou and taught her the "Peacock Holy Book". She always remembered this kindness in her heart and was willing to be a slave and repay Zhang Ruochen.

With a turn of his hand, Zhang Ruochen took out a colorful holy garment and handed it to Kong Xuan, saying, "This is for you, and you will need to take good care of your mother for me in the future."

"This is too expensive, I can't take it." Kong Xuan refused.

Concubine Lin reached out to take the colorful sacred garment, stuffed it into Kong Xuan's hand, and said, "Chen'er will give it to you, you can take it."

Seeing this, Kong Xuan could no longer refuse, so he had to accept the colorful sacred garment and said, "Thank you for your gift."

Zhang Ruochen smiled and nodded. He was a person with a clear distinction between gratitude and grudges. Although Kong Xuan was a maid, he never regarded her as a slave. He saw Kong Xuan's goodness to Concubine Lin, so he naturally had to express his feelings.

After being separated for too long, there was too much to say between Zhang Ruochen and Lin Fei.

Before we knew it, it was already dark.

As they were talking, Mu Lingxi, Zhang Yuxi, the drunkard and Gu Songzi entered the courtyard.

Mu Lingxi waved his hand and a large round table appeared in the yard. The table was filled with wine and food, which looked extremely rich.

"The wine and food are ready, everyone should come and sit down." Mu Lingxi greeted with a smile.

Soon, everyone sat down, even Kong Xuan was no exception. Of course, this was the result of Zhang Ruochen's forced request.

On New Year's Eve, Zhang Ruochen failed to come back, and now it is a reunion dinner.

Over the years, Zhang Ruochen's nerves have been tense. It has been a long time since he relaxed like this. Now he doesn't think about anything, just wants to reunite with his relatives and friends, have dinner and chat, just like an ordinary family.

To be honest, he really wants to live his life simply like this. Unfortunately, he can't. There are too many things in his life that cannot be controlled. It's not that he can let go if he wants to let go.

It is inevitable to come to Phoenix Lake and meet the Mu family.

Back then, Zhang Ruochen led his men to attack Wuding Mountain and robbed the bride, which made the Mu family miss the opportunity to marry Wutong Qiuyu, and thus suffered a great loss of face.

Therefore, most of the Mu family members have no good feelings for Zhang Ruochen, and they all have no good expression when they see Zhang Ruochen.

Especially after returning to the ancestral land over the years, the overall strength has increased greatly and become very arrogant, and he does not take Zhang Ruochen seriously.

Of course, it is mainly because they have been staying in the awakening holy land of Phoenix Lake, and have hardly asked much about what happened outside the world. They don’t know what Kunlun Realm has become, nor do they know what great things Zhang Ruochen has done in Kunlun Realm.

"Zhang Ruochen, this is my ancestral land of the Mu family. You are not welcome. If you are tactful, leave quickly." Yun Zheng said with a cold face.

As Mu Lingxi's father, he was the most eager for Mu Lingxi to marry the autumn rain of Wutong and climb up the branches. Once the autumn rain grows into the spiritual roots of the heaven and earth in Kunlun Realm, he will undoubtedly get great benefits.

But Zhang Ruochen ruined all this, shattering his hopes and becoming a laughing stock. He was always full of anger towards Zhang Ruochen.

"Don't think that you are so great that you are the messenger of the Moon God. We don't want to eat this."

"That's right, we welcome all the saints of Guanghan Realm, but we don't welcome you."

"The traitor from Kunlun Realm actually has the face to return to Kunlun Realm."

"He might think that without him, the Kunlun Realm would not be able to overcome the difficulties."

"It's ridiculous. Today, the major worlds under the Court Realm have sent strong people into Kunlun Realm to fight against the Hell Realm, what is he worth."

…………

A group of Mu family members spoke one after another, belittling Zhang Ruochen wantonly, trying to expel Zhang Ruochen from Phoenix Lake.

In fact, if it weren't for Mu Lingxi's presence, they would have done it directly, so how could they say so much to Zhang Ruochen?

In their opinion, even if Zhang Ruochen is not weak, he is not much stronger. The Mu family can completely suppress it.

Especially now that the ancestor of the Mu family, the highest generation, is sitting in the hall, they are even more confident.

The ancestor of the Mu family was already a powerful figure in the Holy King realm before the revival of Kunlun Realm.

After the revival of Kunlun Realm, its cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds, and has reached the realm of the Nine-Step Saint King Rules, and is fully expected to condense the Taoist realm.

"Zhang Ruochen, go, don't be embarrassed." Mu Qingtian, the Holy Lord of the Mu family, said in a deep voice.

He had suffered losses at Zhang Ruochen's hands and had no good feelings for Zhang Ruochen.

The Mu family now has three powerful people in the Holy King realm, and he is one of them.

The other two are naturally the ancestors of the Mu family, Ju Xinghe and Mu Lingxi.

And as time goes by, more holy kings will be born in the Mu family.

Seeing that so many people in the Mu family were targeting Zhang Ruochen, Mu Lingxi's face immediately became very ugly. If she had known this, she would not have brought Zhang Ruochen to see the Mu family.

She is no longer the little saint of the Demon Sect who was at the mercy of others. No one needs to interfere in her affairs.

"Enough, who dares to speak rudely again? Don't blame me for being rude to him." Mu Lingxi shouted coldly.

Yun Zheng immediately slapped the handrail, stood up, and scolded, "Rare you, do you still have my father in your eyes?"

Jupiter with crane hair sat upright on the main seat, with her eyebrows lowered, emitting powerful majesty.

"Lingxi, don't forget that you are also a disciple of the Mu family. It would be too unreasonable to threaten your tribe for the sake of an outsider." Ju Xinghe said in a low tone.

Mu Lingxi did not retreat and immediately wanted to refute.

Zhang Ruochen took a step forward, reached out to stop Mu Lingxi, and said aloud: "Lingxi is my Taoist partner. What's wrong with me coming here to see her?"

"I'm talking nonsense, I will never agree with this matter." Yun Zheng said furiously.

Ju Xinghe stood up, and his body emitted an extremely terrifying aura, and his eyes burst into sharp light. He looked directly at Zhang Ruochen, like a beast, staring at his prey.

"Zhang Ruochen, my Mu family's celestial daughter, how can you possess it at will? Do you think you are worthy of Lingxi?"

Jupiter is extremely domineering at this moment and wants to suppress others with power.

In his eyes, Zhang Ruochen is just a junior. Even though he is talented, how could he grow up in such a short time?

And he is already the Great World of the Nine Steps Saint King Rules, and is not far from the Condensation Dao Realm, enough to crush Zhang Ruochen at will.

Faced with the oppression of Jupiter's momentum, Zhang Ruochen seemed to be light and unaffected.

Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen emitted a powerful aura, like a giant volcano that had been silent for thousands of years, suddenly erupting.

"Ruble, rub, rub."

Jupiter couldn't help but take a few steps back, and a look of horror appeared in her eyes.

Previously, Zhang Ruochen was very low-key and completely restrained his breath, which made him seriously misjudgment Zhang Ruochen's cultivation strength.

"This breath..."

In the hall, all the Mu family members changed their faces.
Chapter completed!
