"Life?!"
Shen Mu was hit with shock that he struggled to follow what was happening around him.
Just the other day, he was beaten within an inch of his life, then the cultivation base which had not moved in close to a thousand years finally moved and in the process, his saber intent grew from its pseudo phase to a fully mature saber intent and the impetus of it all turned out to be his conscience which he had long abandoned, leaving him with only one lingering regret in life, his mysterious mother and now here she was.
The shock of seeing her after searching for her for so long and failing left him at a loss for words and thoughts.
The lady sighed as she saw Shen Mu's reaction, her gaze turning tender in the process, as she extended her hand to ruffle his hair before pausing her movement halfway, returning her hands to her sides.
