Despite the dark clouds outside, the entire Mu family was decorated with lanterns and was extremely lively. The Patriarch coming out of seclusion meant that the entire Mu family finally had their own backbone. As long as the Patriarch was around, even if they encountered a huge problem, the Mu family would be able to hold on.
The heavy rain came and went quickly. Jin Xin, Sun Fei, and the others were still in shock at this time. They looked at the clear sky and could no longer see any dark clouds.
"Damn it, what kind of weather is this?" Jin Xin was still angry and kept muttering. However, what he didn't notice was a flash of understanding in Sun Fei's eyes. He even unconsciously clenched his fists slowly.
...
With the Mu family's Patriarch coming out of seclusion, everything began to be carried out in full swing. Under Mu Hai's management, everything seemed to be in order.
Su Zhenyu was not idle either. Through the elders that he secretly bribed, the news of Lin Xiu's breakthrough was passed up layer by layer. Finally, it was known to the Mu family's Patriarch.
Even though he had lived for a very long time and had seen countless geniuses like carps in the river, Lin Xiu still attracted a little of the Mu family's ancestor's attention. It was not surprising for someone to break through to the Heavenly Yuan Realm at such a young age.
However, when he was in the Earth Yuan Realm, he could fight to a draw with Wang Yan, who was ranked third on the genius list. This was really an extremely impressive thing.
After a few more days, Jin Xin still hung out with Sun Fei every day, tasting all kinds of delicacies on the streets and alleys of Mu City. The two of them would occasionally sit there and comment on the beauties that appeared on the streets.
After a few days, his entire body had become fatter again.
Under Su Zhenyu's secret plan, the Mu family's Patriarch finally spread the news that he was going to summon Lin Xiu. This also made Lin Xiu's heart tighten and he was secretly a little nervous. Although these things were what they were happy to see, when it was about to happen, Lin Xiu was still worried that if his identity was exposed, it would cause the Mu family's Patriarch to be unhappy and kill him directly!
But everything was to be able to rescue his mother as soon as possible. Even though he knew that there was a certain risk, Lin Xiu still braced himself and walked into the cave where the Patriarch cultivated in seclusion.
What surprised him was that the Mu family's patriarch looked extremely young, and he gave off an aura that made people feel close to him.
Seeing Lin Xiu, the Mu family's ancestor suddenly frowned. He felt a familiar aura from the little guy in front of him, and it actually had a trace of similarity with his bloodline. This made him even more puzzled.
Lin Xiu stood on the spot in fear and did not dare to move at all. The person in front of him was the Mu family ancestor who played an important role in the entire continent and controlled the life and death of millions of people.
The ancestor of the Mu family's strength had already reached the pinnacle a long time ago. Furthermore, he possessed a bloodline that had been passed down since ancient times, causing his true battle prowess to be much greater than his cultivation level on the surface.
"Young man, I feel a sense of intimacy from you."
The eyes of the Mu family's ancestor flickered with infinite wisdom, then he said to Lin Xiu, his words were full of endless vicissitudes.
Lin Xiu's heart skipped a beat. In his plan, although he had to take the initiative to reveal his true identity, he did not expect that the old man in front of him could see through him at a glance.
At this moment, Lin Xiu lowered his head and kept looking at the tip of his toes, not daring to raise his head at all.
After hearing the words of the Mu family's ancestor, he mustered up the courage to take a look. However, with this look, Lin Xiu realized that the old man in front of him was shockingly similar to the figure that appeared in the Mountain River Seal.
Seeing Lin Xiu's appearance, the Mu family's ancestor couldn't help but laugh. Then, in the blink of an eye, his entire figure actually aged at a speed visible to the naked eye and completely overlapped with the figure in the Mountain River Seal.
Looking at the unimaginable scene in front of him, Lin Xiu calmed down a lot at this moment. When he participated in the trial of the Mountain River Seal, he felt that this old man was filled with a sense of calmness and harmony from head to toe. He even felt a sense of intimacy towards Lin Xiu, so he was not worried that exposing his identity would cause any bad consequences.
As if he was influenced by the Mu family's ancestor, Lin Xiu knelt on the ground with a plop. His forehead heavily touched the ground and he let out a whimper.
"I beg the ancestor to pardon my mother."
"Oh? Seems like you really have the bloodline of my Mu family. "
The Mu family's ancestor let out a soft sigh. With his life experience, how could he not see that the little guy in front of him was definitely related by blood to the descendant that was enduring the punishment in the Serene Pagoda.
In the eyes of a person who stood at the peak of the continent like the Mu family's ancestor, the matters of the descendants were just small matters. Back then, he only found out about the order to bring Lin Xiu's mother back from the Guiyuan Region.
The ancestor did not really care about the matters of the younger generation. However, Mu Wan 'er's talent was really outstanding. The Mu family's ancestor thought that letting her cultivate in the Serene Pagoda for a period of time to polish her temperament was not a bad thing. Who would have thought that the son she gave birth to would actually be even more talented?
"Quickly get up. I already know about the matter. That girl has already endured in the Serene Pagoda for decades and has also received some punishment." The Mu family's ancestor placed his hands behind his back. His gaze seemed to pass through space and directly saw every movement in the Serene Pagoda.
All these years, he had been spending his time in seclusion, hoping to truly cross that threshold and possess the power to truly stand up to the Netherworld Palace. He did not pay much attention to the matters of the family. However, since he had taken the little guy in front of him, then why not release his mother?
Hearing the words of the Mu family's ancestor, Lin Xiu was a little in disbelief. Originally, in his and Su Zhenyu's plan, even if his identity was exposed, there would probably be some extremely harsh conditions to be able to save his mother from the abyss of suffering. Who would have thought that the old man in front of him would agree to his request with just a few words?
