After Mu Jingling left, Mu Qinyi brought Gu Ming and the others to Gongbo Jingfei.

Since Che Jinglan and the others were wearing robes made by Mu Nanjin, Gongbo Jingfei, even though he was in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, could not see through their cultivation and identities, but he still arranged them to Mu Nanjin's courtyard.

Although it is called a courtyard, its area is actually larger than Prime Minister Wu’s residence, and it can easily accommodate hundreds of people.

On the third day after Mu Nanjin returned to Gongbo's house, Mu Jingling took Mu Nanjin to stroll around Gongbo's house and told Mu Nanjin the general situation of the family.

"Nannan, you have been living outside the cultivation world, so you probably don't know that people in the cultivation world live very long. Without any accidents, the shortest lifespan is nearly three hundred years old, and the longest lifespan is ten or twenty thousand years old. Because everyone's lifespan is different, the time of marriage is also different. Some people know that their aptitude is not good, so they will get married and have children in their twenties or thirties to leave offspring. Some people have good aptitude and will practice hard in the early stage, and wait until they are hundreds or thousands of years old before looking for a Taoist partner, just like your father, who got married when he was close to the tribulation period, and the age difference between him and me is more than eight thousand years, and the age difference between him and your uncle is more than three thousand years. Another example is the great elder of Gongbo's family. He is five thousand years old and is your father's nephew, but according to seniority, he still has to call you cousin aunt."

Mu Jingling touched Mu Nanjin's head: "I'm telling you this to tell you that you are over a thousand years older than the second and third heirs, but they are younger than you. The third heir is the grandson of the great elder, Gong Boyu. If he sees you, he has to call you aunt. The second heir, Gong Boyin, is a junior from the side branch. His generation is even younger than Gong Boyu, but he is better than Gong Boyu in all aspects. But he is from the side branch after all, and it is not easy for him to get support from the direct line. Therefore, everyone is more optimistic about Gong Boyu at the moment."

"You must be wondering why the Gongbo family chose a younger generation as the heir instead of someone with a higher realm when there are many cultivators with higher realms than Gong Boyu and his friends. This is because training a family head requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and people with higher realms are not far from death or ascension. The Gongbo family does not want to waste huge resources on a person who is about to 'leave' the Gongbo family, so they can only choose talents from the younger generation to inherit the position of family head."

"To be honest, I don't want you to fight for the position of head of the family, but if you are willing to give up, others will let you go. Some people are worried that you will threaten his position and will do everything they can to get rid of you."

"You were just born back then, and you were very young. Even if your father was in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, he couldn't guarantee your safety. He was busy every day and couldn't take care of you every day. Even if he could take care of you until you grow up, he couldn't protect you for your entire life. We could only bear the pain and let your uncle take you away from Gongbo's house, and let your uncle do everything he could to make you grow up in a short period of time."

As a parent, who doesn’t want to keep their children by their side? Who would be willing to send their children away unless they had no choice?

At the beginning, Gongbo Jingfei had seriously considered giving the best resources to the child since he was a genius in cultivation for a thousand years. However, after twenty years, the child was at most in the Jindan stage, and was still not as good as the other two heirs. He had no choice but to take the risk and let Mu Qinyi take the child away to seek adventure.

Mu Nanjin nodded to show that he understood.

Mu Jingling took Mu Nanjin for a walk and then returned to the main courtyard.

The servant came to report: "Madam, the Great Elder and his men are here, they want to see the Young Master."

Mu Jingling frowned: "Where is the head of the family?"

The elders of Bogong's family looked down on her very much.

If she wasn't from the Mu family and Gongbo Jingfei was determined to marry her, she really wouldn't have been able to enter Gongbo's house.

After all, the descendants of the head of the Gongbo family have always been supposed to inherit the position of the head of the family, but he chose to marry a person with useless spiritual roots and brought discredit to the family. Otherwise, the second and third heirs would not have competed for the position of the head of the family.

The servant replied, "The master is meeting guests and is not available to see the elders for the time being."

Mu Jingling rubbed his brows and said, "I understand. I will take Nan Nan to meet them now."

After the servants left, she said to Mu Nanjin, "Nannan, don't be afraid. Although the elders don't think highly of you, they don't dare to attack you openly on the patron's territory."

"Um."

Mu Nanjin followed Mu Jingling to the hall.

There were five middle-aged men and a handsome young man standing in the hall.

When they saw Mu Jingling bringing Mu Nanjin in, they immediately looked at Mu Nanjin with scrutiny.

Because Mu Nanjin suppressed her cultivation and was still wearing a robe, the Great Elder and the others could not see her realm clearly for a moment.

"Greetings, Madam. Greetings, Young Master." The middle-aged man and the young man bowed to Mu Jingling.

Mu Jingling nodded, and then introduced the elders to Mu Nanjin: "Nannan, let me introduce you, the one on the left is the elder of Gongbo's family..."

[Tsk tsk, this is the great elder, he looks very honest and kind, but actually he has great ambitions.]

Everyone: “…”

The Great Elder frowned.

[If he wasn't older and his realm was higher, he would still want to fight for the position of the head of the family. ]

[When my parents got married, he was very happy because his people finally had the opportunity to compete for the position of head of the family. But in order not to reveal his ambition, he could only pretend to oppose my parents. Everyone thought he was doing it for Gongbo's family, but they didn't know he was doing it for himself.]

Everyone: “!!!!”

"Hu……"

The Great Elder was unable to utter a single word.

He was shocked.

"you……"

The young man next to the Great Elder glared at Mu Nanjin, but he couldn't utter a single word.

Mu Nanjin raised her eyebrows: "Mom, who is this..."

Mu Jingling introduced her: "He is the grandson of the great elder, Gong Boyu, and the third in line to the throne."

Mu Nanjin: "Oh."

[It turns out that he is the grandson of the great elder, Gong Boyu. He is uglier than Gong Boyu Jingfei, but he thinks he is so handsome.]

Everyone: “…”

[His strength is much weaker than Gongbo Jin's. If Gongbo Jin was not from a side branch, it would not be his turn to compete for the position of the head of the family. ]

[Also, the Gongbo family claims that they only look at strength, but in fact they also look at the purity of the bloodline. ]

[Gongbo's family is not good at picking people. 】

Seeing that the faces of the elders were getting darker and darker, Mu Jingling quickly coughed and said, "Nannan, this is the second elder."

[Although the Second Elder's words are unpleasant and unpleasant, he is actually a good person. He is the only one who treats my mother as a real lady.]

Mu Jingling looked at the Second Elder in surprise.
