“I destroyed my own face. From the night I walked out of the Chen family, everything I had had nothing to do with the Chen family, including this face!”
Shen Ming answered in a muffled voice.
Li Muyang sneered and looked at him from the corner of his eyes,””If you really have nothing to do with him, why would you be here? Are you kidding me?”
Shen Ming choked and said after a moment,””I want to take revenge on the Shen family and return all the pain and suffering I’ve suffered all these years to those noble Shen family members who have lived a comfortable life. I ask the city Lord to fulfill my wish!”
“You should have said that earlier. You’re just putting on an act in front of me and my father. How cunning are you?”
Li Muyang laughed coldly.”Remember, if you want to be someone’s dog, you have to have the awareness of being a dog. The first rule of being a dog is loyalty. If you don’t even have this awareness, I advise you to end your own life as soon as possible. Otherwise, you’ll be better off dead in the future.”
Glancing at li songzhang’s indifferent expression, Shen Ming quickly knelt down and said,””This lowly one obeys, I’m willing to go through water and tread on fire for city Lord and young master, I absolutely don’t dare to have any disloyal thoughts!”
“It’s good that you know. You may leave. ”
Seeing that li Muyang had subdued him with a few words, li songzhang was very pleased.””Mu ‘er, you’re not bad. You already know the essence of using people. However, the Shen family of the wind god is so famous. Even if they can’t compare to the talisman King family, they must have hidden cards. I’m afraid that it’s not enough to rely on you alone.”
Although li Muyang did not mind, he still kept his guard up when he thought about Qin Renjie and the Reaper squad.
“Then dad, you can find an expert to help me hold the line, the strongest one, how about it?”
“That’s good. ”
Li songzhang hesitated for a moment before agreeing. The shepherd was his most important trump card, and he would not use it unless it was a critical moment. However, for the safety of his precious son, he chose to make an exception.
At the same time, the talisman Wang family also received an invitation from the Shen family.
Because of Shen Yifan, Lin Yi was no stranger to the Shen family.
Even though they had not officially visited him yet, as long as Shen Yifan was around, the Shen family, the god of wind, was destined to be his ally.
After all, Shen Yifan was the heir to the Shen family, the wind god.
However, he was still a little confused.””Isn’t it a little too ostentatious to hold a full moon banquet at such a sensitive time?”
Currently, the people of Jianghai city were in a state of panic. The city Lord’s mansion had acted without restraint, and all the forces were trembling in fear.
The bird that takes the lead gets shot.
To be fair, the most taboo thing at this moment was to show off. Anyone with a bit of intelligence would definitely try to be as low-profile as possible. It would be best to let everyone forget about their existence. That was the best solution to tide over the crisis.
“The old master of the Shen family is a smart person and would not use such a plan unless it is the last resort.”
Wang Tianfeng explained from the side,”I heard that the hearts of the people within the Shen family have been wavering these days. The friction between the three branches is endless. If this continues, they might move towards separation. Old master Shen probably wants to use this opportunity to unite the hearts of the people and let the three branches of the Shen family return to one body.”
“Every family has its own problems.”
Lin Yi couldn’t help but sigh. The Wang family was like this, and so was the shens. Even the other big families he’d come into contact with before, none of them lived in harmony.
Wang Tianfeng shook his head with a wry smile.”I can’t help it. This is human nature.”
These few days, he had been busy selecting the clan’s core disciples to stay in the repeat school. Just for this name list, the whole clan had been in a heated argument. Fortunately, Grand Elder Wang sanjue’s prestige was high enough, and he, as the current clan head, had a solid foundation. Otherwise, he would also be in a terrible fix.
Lin Yi was silent.
If he were to create a big family in the future, how would he deal with the relationship between the members of the family? If it really ended up in a situation where their flesh and blood were killed, that would be too terrible.
Lin Yi suddenly slapped himself in the face.
Even though he had a bunch of female confidants, he didn’t even have a child so far. What was there to be conflicted about?
Wang sanjue saw his expression and couldn’t help but laugh.”Little friend, are you interested in making a trip to the Shen family?”
“I’ll go then,”Lin Yi said after some thought.
Two days later, in the Shen family of the wind god.
As the number one leader of the flying shuttle industry in Jianghai city, the wind god Shen family might not be as well-known as the talisman Wang family, but they were still one of the top ten powers in Jianghai city.
The old master of the Shen family, who had been away from the world for many years, had personally come out to invite people. What kind of status was this?
Although it was only a one-month-old party for a child, all the forces had sent people to attend, and they were all of extremely high level.
In the case of the talisman Wang family, the head of the family, Wang Tianfeng, personally came forward.
For a time, the full moon banquet had become the peak of Jianghai city. In the midst of drinking and exchanging cups, various forces took this rare opportunity to exchange views and come to a consensus.
As for the main character, the one-month-old child, although he was overshadowed, he was still extremely glorious.
Just the one-month-old gifts received were enough to crush 99% of the second generation. After all, what could make these big shots take out were naturally not common goods, but treasures that could only be encountered but not sought.
“Second sister, my nephew is born with a noble air. Even Shen Yifan’s coming-of-age ceremony wasn’t this Grand, right?”
A man with a sharp mouth and monkey-like cheeks came to the side of the noble lady of the Shen family and said.
This noble lady of the Shen family was naturally the birth mother of today’s main character, the current wife of the second branch of the Shen family, Shen Huangshi. The man was her younger brother, Huang Yan.
“Of course! Even though Shen Yifan’s coming-of-age ceremony was personally organized by the old master, and all the forces sent representatives to attend, they were at most just ordinary elders. Their ranks were far lower than now!” Shen Huangshi replied proudly.
“Hehe, it’s obvious how much the old master dotes on Jiu ‘er. It seems that Shen Yifan, the so-called only heir of the Shen family, will have to change his title sooner or later. At that time, second sister, you will be able to rise in status because of your son. The position of the future matriarch of the Shen family will be yours!”
Huang Yan’s words directly hit the bottom of Shen Huangshi’s heart.
She wasn’t Shen Yifan’s birth mother. When Shen Yifan’s birth mother was still alive, she was just a pampered concubine with no status at all.
After Shen Yifan’s birth mother passed away from illness, she was then promoted by the old master and became the current Madam of the second branch of the Shen family.
However, because of her lowly background, although the entire Shen family respected her on the surface, no one took her seriously at all. Instead, they all revolved around Shen Yifan.
The more Shen Yifan became the center of attention, the more it made her, a lowly stepmother, seem out of place. As time went by, she accumulated a deep resentment.
Today, she could finally hold her head high and be proud of her son!
Shen Huangshi’s face still maintained a reserved look,”Young brother, don’t speak nonsense. Shen Yifan has already been adopted by the first branch and is the successor of the Shen family that the old master has decided on. If your words were to spread, you will cause trouble.”
“Second sister, don’t worry. I’m not a big-mouthed idiot. I know what I should say and what I shouldn ‘t.”
Huang Yan grinned.”People’s hearts change. Shen Yifan was able to win the old master’s favor back then because our Jiu ‘er wasn’t born yet. Now that Jiu’ er is born, it’s clear who the old master favors more!”
Moreover, the old master is a member of the second branch after all, and Shen Yifan is an outsider now that he has married into the first branch. How can he be closer to the old master than our Jiu ‘er?”
