Patriarch Duchong smiled proudly to see that his disciple was able to develop and had now been much stronger than himself. Even the five elders had said their agreement to elevate Du Lian to the next Matriarch.
He had the intention to enter closed-door training to deepen and make his Soul technique evolve into a Mortal technique. Before that happened, he would appoint Du Lian as his successor so that the Sect of Poisonous Insects could still flourish with a new leadership.
The same situation occurred in the middle region, because the conditions there were slightly weaker than the central region making the demons that attacked the region also weaker. But that's not with people in the middle.
But in the central region, there are the kingdom of Precious Stones, White Flags, Spring and the sect of the Elixir Medicines who are the vanguard in facing the demon nation. Right now that the Elixir Medicine sect was exerting their full strength, Bald Kun who had now become the patriarch of the Elixir Medicines had ordered the young elders to lead the army.
When the war broke out, there were some troops who showed their cohesiveness and ability in facing the demon nation, the army was led by Princess Yewan, Qing Hongyun, Darma, Jian and Gou Hei.
They had now become masters as well as grand elders of each faction. The five had even killed layer 5 and 6 powerful demons with their strength. Of course the role of the kingdoms also helped.
From the royal army, there was a group of 5 stone elders from the Precious Stone kingdom, then there was a group of twin brothers from the White Flag kingdom and the last group and Chun Jian from the Spring kingdom.
With the presence of various guarding forces, the situation in the central region tends to be safer and more restrained, although there will be some strong demonic forces attacking and requiring a combination of several forces to deal with it.
Another case with the Shen kingdom was successfully summoning 10 Mortal cultivators from the 3 great families. Coupled with the Mortal cultivators from the Shen family making there at least 15 Mortal cultivators guarding. The strongest power among them was a layer 2 cultivator who was none other than the noble king Shen Dao.
Shen Dao led an entire Mortal cultivator and guarded Shen kingdom from the attacks of the demon nation. But a day ago, the attack of the demon nation was getting more violent and now unexpectedly, among the 10 demons that had been announced to have the strongest power, two of them arrived at Shen Kingdom.
Although both of them were still weaker than the demon generals but still they were the strongest demons of their people. Shen Dao had a sour face as he was currently listening to the report that his eyes sent.
If only this time was not a precarious situation, he would move towards the central palace and ask them for an explanation. However he knew that it would be very futile, so he rushed to ask for the deployment of the three full powers out and the kingdom.
“May father be given long life!” A beautiful princess and exuding an aura of maturity entered Shen Dao's study. No woman in Shen kingdom can rival her beauty, for she is the first princess of Shen kingdom, Shen Yide.
“You're getting beautiful after you've grown up, how have you been all this time, son? Forgive me for being too busy taking care of the kingdom” Shen Dao hugged his daughter. He forgot the last time he hugged his daughter like this.
Shen Yide was confused as to why his father had suddenly acted this way, but he also returned his father's embrace and said, “Yide was so busy with royal work that he forgot to take care of father”
Indeed, being a princess and the first child of the Shen family made her multi-talented and well served royal affairs. Since the age of 17, Shen Yide had been assigned to everything about the royal diplomatic and good relations between the Li and Duan families. That was why, Shen Yide was very close to patriarch Duan and grand elder Li.
In addition, when she was 20 years old, along with the appointment of Shen Yide became the next queen candidate to replace her father, he had the task of competing with the Zhen family that was then the top and number one family in the Origin Plains. At that time, he had to replace his mother who died to take care of his two younger siblings.
Indeed, Shen Yide's story and path are already very similar to the novels on earth. With so many obstacles and tasks carried by the royal princess, making her more mature and smart in making all decisions.
Five years ago, when he managed to establish cooperation between the Li, Duan and Shen families with Zhen Yuan, Shen Dao praised him for his courage as well as his right decision. That way her position gets stronger to become the next queen. In the future, he more often gets royal duties which should be carried out by the king.
“Pardon me for having made you work hard” Shen Dao is well aware of it, maybe others will say Shen Yide enjoyed his life very much and was not burdened but as a father, he said, he knew more about his daughter.
