Author's note.
Spoiler; Since a lot of people had not figured it out, the t.i.tle of this novel is "OMNIPOTENT FATHER" and hey, he's not yet a full pledged father nor is he a married man, the best he could be right now is an "Omnipotent Step-father?" Lol! Well, that's what I want to say, the story has not really begone until he becomes a real father :D
End of note.

[I hate myself... for actually having feelings like this for another man other than him.] (Shang Ting)
[I don't want to be preoccupied with anything else other than my plan, I`ll do my best to see them again, I won't let the things that happened in the past repeat! Shang Ting, Aiqing, wait for me!] (Mo Xie)
The two of them had their minds preoccupied with things and couldn't be bothered by false ident.i.ty. If they were to actually to speak with one another, they could have had a great reunion, but fate is a playful thing.
Destiny wishes for them to not meet each other quickly, in with that, their separation has continued.
Right now, Mo Xie and Shenyue are on their way to the part of the Kingdom where the Demon Beasts raids are going.
Within the distant, they saw a huge smoke piling up.
"Princess, look over there!" One of Shenyue's guard spoke.
As those words were said, everyone looks at the direction and saw a huge city.
"If I'm not wrong, that's the Bi Lan City right?" Shenyue spoke.
"Yes, Princess!"
Shenyue frowned, Bi Lan City is a merchant city where and is one of Vermillion Sonata Kingdom's economical power.
"Uncle Bai must be there, let's go and scout it." Shenyue spoke. Since the Bi Lan City is a priority to protect, her uncle, Bai Siwa should be protecting it personally.
"Yes!"
Shenyue's group immediately rushed towards the Bi Lan City's direction and just after a few moments, they arrived, what they are witnessing right now is something out of their expectation.
"This!" Shenyue couldn't help but exclaim.
There are currently only about a thousand experts fighting in the Bi Lan City and only a few hundred of them are wearing the royal guard attire.
"Where is Uncle Bai!?" Shenyue howled as she asks.
At this time, hearing Shenyue's words, a lot of the expert felt revitalized, why? because currently, they are fighting 1,000 to 10,000 enemies.
"Princess, the general had commanded 500 of us to stay here and defend the city together with the local experts!" One of the five captains spoke.
Hearing this, Shenyue couldn't help but be mad; "Half of you remain here, after you finish defending this area, go and scatter to different cities and villages!"
"YES!" Everyone nodded as they immediately moves to help their comrades.
"Hmmp! The rest of you follow me! We'll immediately go and rescue the hostages!" (Shenyue)
"Yes!"
Shenyue wants to finish this event as fast as possible so she could ask her uncle about it; [What is uncle thinking! Is there a place even more important than the Bi Lan City?!]
After a few more hours of travelling, Shenyue's group had already decreased to a tenth of it's original number, because cities and villages were getting raided without any fighting powers.
"Princess look!"
At this moment, one of Shenyue's right hand spoke.
"Three cages!" Shenyue exclaims as she saw the ma.s.sive group of demon beasts moving towards the south.
The number of this group of demon beast goes at least 40,000, more than triple the number of Shenyue's current group.
"Princess, what do we do?"
Shenyue couldn't help but hesitate; "Ho-how many prisoners are there?"
"Basing it solely with our vision, we can tell that it has surpa.s.sed a hundred thousand."
Shenyue gritted her teeth; "My subordinates, all of you are welcome to go home today and report to it that I went on my own... but for those that wishes to share this battle with me, follow my charge!"
All of them smiled as they nodded; "To the princess! CHARGE!"
Their will resolute and full of bravery as they charge forth. But right at this moment Mo Xie spoke.
"Hey, hey, hold your horses, why are you bringing me with your suicide, are you guys insane?!" Mo Xie's words caused all of them to stop as they look at him strangely.
"That... then you may go now, we will do our best to rescue the prisoners while you escape!" Shenyue spoke, although she's a little disappointed at Mo Xie.
But Mo Xie's following words made them realize something.
"They are moving in a extremely slow state, what's the rush? You can just wait for your other subordinates to arrive and safely rescue the prisoners with minimal casualties." Mo Xie sighed as he said those words, he also added;
"Just because the war pumped you up doesn't mean that you should go and kill yourself, you're even dragging your men into this."
With every word Mo Xie spoke, there's nothing to argue.
Shenyue for the first time in her life blushes in embara.s.sment; "Then... then we will do that!"
"All men on standby, we shall wait for our other comrades to arrive before we rescue the prisoners."
Shenyue then looks at her left; "Bring some men and scout the premimeter, also, you, trace the enemy's path, bring me any information about the direction or the place they are gathering the prisoners."
"YES!"
All of those that were given task immediately replied as they made their way out.
Mo Xie sighs as he spoke: "Ahh, sorry about bursting your dramatic flare but I was only thinking for the better good of your men."
Shenyue didn't frown as she knew it herself, what Mo Xie really had said that time is for the best; "I know."
Mo Xie nodded as he also added; "Then, this is the part where I will be separating from you all."
"What do you mean?" (Shenyu)
"I have to do my own investigation." Mo Xie smiled as he immediately walks out.
"Wait, you're safety is my priority!" Shenyue tried to stop him but before she could, he was nowhere in sight.
"How... Where did he go?!" Shenyue slightly panicked, if something is to really happen to Mo Xie, she will be the first person that Huotian will bring his wrath upon.
"No, he left on his own, I don't have any responsibilities on this!" Shenyue tries to console herself as she started walking back and forth.
Meanwhile, Mo Xie jumped out of the wyvern and immediately summoned Zhuding.
Zhuding is a demonic beast that especialices in flight so his speed is definitely one of the best.
"Master, where will we be heading?" (Zhuding)
"We will go and advance further, we'll head straight to where those groups of demonic beast are going." (Mo Xie)
Zhuding nodded but a little hesitant.
Mo Xie notices it and ask; "What's the matter?"
"This... Master, I'm feeling an extremely dark energy coming from the direction where we are going." (Zhuding)
Mo Xie opened his eyes widely; "I could sense nothing... Is it maybe that only demonic beast can feel it?"
Zhuding nodded his head; "I think so master, because I've always felt it since you let me out of your body, but this time, the energy grew darker and darker."
Mo Xie nodded as he looks in that direction; "No matter what that is, it will definitely harm a lot of living beings."
goes around.
