"They are..." Shang Ting couldn't help but ask.
Aiqing chuckles: "Mom, meet Vielka, my wife!!!" She proudly declared with her two hands on her waist.
"....."
Everyone couldn't help but be speechless as they looked at Aiqing and Vielka alternately.
Vielka who was subjected to multiple gazes couldn't help but blush and cough a few times.
Shang Ting didn't know how to respond, still, she sighed: "Where are you from, young lady?"
She didn't know where Vielka is from, not knowing her background, nor any information about her other than being from the demon race's territory.
Vielka nods her head and respectfully spoke: "Mother-in-law, I am Vielka Vursch, Princess of the Eternal Night Royal Empire, the overlord from the Demon Race territory."
Hearing her words, the Elders and Shang Ting remained stoic, while the people, the rest are shock, immediately, they aimed the Magic Lance towards them, even the survivors did the same.
"D-demon race?!"
Shang Ting then looked at the people coldly: "Are you pointing your weapons, the Mo Family's weapon at a family member?"
For an instant, a cold aura flashed from Shang Ting's body.
The Mo Family's members, the Magic Lance holders lower their weapon, not by because they felt fear, but because they were ashamed.
They moved instinctively without waiting for orders, they trained, although it was only for three days, there was one thing that the trainers repeatedly said, even if one is about to die, never move unless they are given the order to.
Yet, at the mere word of the 'Demon Race', they felt terrified.
Same with the survivors, their savior didn't even do a thing yet they immediately wanted to take action? Even if they wanted to, could they even deal with anything?
Behind her are a whole group of experts, about five hundred of them all at the Immortal Foundation rank peak stage.
Vielka herself is already at the Immortal Ascension rank together with Aiqing with almost the same cultivation as hers.
"What brought you here? You should've stayed in their territory." Shang Ting asked.
Aiqing giggles: "Mom, we heard that the human territory had been suffering from a ma.s.sive coup right? We came to reinforce you."
She spoke proudly, looking at the gathered people below that aren't even at the Sky Shattering rank, she couldn't help but sigh: "I think what I've brought will be enough."
"You should make them return, we can handle it now, mom."
Shang Ting sighed: "You know..." She paused for a bit before...
Tug!!!
Ack! Aiqing cried out from the pain and held her head where her mother struck her.
Her fist landed on Aiqing's head: "Do not look down on other people's conviction."
"Sooooweeeee..." Aiqing said apologetically, truthfully, she didn't look down on them, she just missed her mother after so long, especially when seeing Vielka and her grandma being showing such intense family love, hence, she spoke about it.
Well, family love means being bashed multiple times, having her face slammed on the ground and unto the walls many times.
Hence, receiving a kind and lovely punishment from her mother made her feel refreshed, somehow.
Somehow, Shang Ting knew of her intention, hence she did what she did.
"Matriarch." At this time, Mo Duan and Mo Tian also announced their return again.
Shang Ting smiled: "Ah, you two had finally returned, you've finished your training?"
The twins shook their head: "Not yet, but for the Family that had given us everything, we will not dare merely watch as it faced the calamity alone."
She then announced her order: "We will split our forces into three groups, one will have half of the whole forces and comb the enemy forces and block the advances of the Zhi Hua Royal Kingdom."
"The other half will split further and help the Solar Blaze Kingdom and the Vermillion Sonata Kingdom."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Now, who will lead each of these groups, I will go and towards the Vermillion Sonata Kingdom."
"I will go with you, mom!" Aiqing voiced her partic.i.p.ation, she then looked at the five hundred experts: "Three hundred of you will go with blocking the Zhi Hua Royal Kingdom's advances, another one hundred will go with the Solar Blaze Kingdom's march, the rest with me."
"Yes." They simultaneously replied.
Shang Ting then looked at the people: "What are you so afraid of? The Demon Race?"
They all fell silent, Wei Lin from the Green Jade Sect then spoke: "That, wasn't it the demon race that kept attacking the human race every ten years?"
Shang Ting looked at her, the former immediately s.h.i.+fts her gaze on the ground.
"The demon race had been attacking the humans?" Shang Ting asked.
She was told just now, that what kept attacking the human race are the Void Creatures, well, they didn't know what it is right now hence, they called it black beings. These black beings are not only attacking the humans but both the demon race and beast kin.
Since this is a piece of new knowledge to her too, she decided to spread the news: "The demon race are..."
She looked at Vielka: "Like them, resembles a human, but the ones that attacking the human race, not only are they attacking us, they are also attacking the demon race and the demon kin, hence..."
She laid all of the information that Aiqing had said, enlightening them completely, even the part where the three races had always had a friendly interaction, until the time where these vile dark creatures appeared.
With that said, they immediately split up the forces, the elders led the forces to block the Zhi Hua Royal Kingdom while Ouyang Chen's followers and the twins will go for the Solar Blaze Kingdom.
Ouyang Chen decided to follow Shang Ting's group, truthfully, he would rather die than let her out of her sight through these troubled times.
They had been marching for three months now, news of their cause had started to spread far and wide, although it had not reached the Zhi Hua Royal Kingdom, there are still evil forces that had heard of it and wanted to put a stop to this, like... the Dark Guild.
And also...
"Are you from the Mo family?" Another voice sounded.
Everyone looked back, immediately, they saw hundreds, no... thousands of them flying in the sky. Although they are wearing a uniformed attire of red and black, there is no sign of which faction they are from.
Everyone prepared immediately as they placed their guards up.
Shang Ting is the first to spoke: "Yes, we are, I am Shang Ting, Matriarch of the Mo Family."
"Ah!" The one leading them exclaimed, he then descended immediately, landing in front of Shang Ting.
Everyone drew out their weapons in thought that it was an attack.
But the man kneeled in front of her and spoke: "I am Mo Yan Meng, a disciple of the Mo Family's Patriarch, Mo Xie."
Another one came too, much faster than he is, she kneeled on the ground and spoke: "Matriarch, I am Mo Fei Lin greets you."
Another two powerful experts! Yan Meng at the peak stage Immortal Ascension rank while Fei Lin is at the initial stage of Immortal Saint rank!
And these two are the disciple of their patriarch?!
Ouyang Chen hearing their names couldn't help but look with shock: "Ah! You two came!"
The two smiled: "Of course, our master's wife is braving danger, it is our duty, as his disciple to protect his love ones!" Fei Lin spoke proudly.
"In the absence of our master, our duty will be to protect her!" Yan Meng added.
