As Song Xiwei expected, when she appeared in the main hall in place of Aoqian, several elders clearly looked at her differently.
Song Xiwei pretended not to notice and continued to peruse the memorials.
When Ao was in hiding, he would finish clearing up the reports from the Demon Realm every day. He was an extremely efficient person who always finished his work on the same day and never procrastinated until the next day.
Song Xiwei looked at the few memorials and was quite surprised.
"It's been several days since His Majesty left, why are there only a few memorials? Has nothing happened in the Demon Clan recently?" Song Xiwei opened the memorials and looked at them. They were all trivial matters, and there was no need to waste time writing and presenting them.
An elder was about to speak when he was stopped by the others.
Seeing this, Song Xiwei asked, "Why don't you let him speak?"
"There are some things we will only tell His Majesty. Envoy Song, you should go and rest. If there is nothing else, we will take our leave."
After the elders finished speaking, they prepared to leave.
Song Xiwei raised her hand and waved it, closing the door to the main hall.
She teleported and appeared in front of everyone.
Song Xiwei rarely used her power to suppress others.
Moreover, these people were all Aoqian's clansmen, not her enemies, but today, she did this, for the first time, using power to suppress them.
Sometimes, the power of suppression is far more effective than words.
Under the absolute pressure of her power, the elders looked pained and were on the verge of collapse, kneeling before her.
However, they clearly found kneeling before Song Xiwei unacceptable, so they tried to resist and get up, but Song Xiwei's strength was simply too great, and they had no power to resist.
"Now, am I qualified to hear the reports from the elders?" Song Xiwei did not withdraw her suppressive power, still making the elders kneel there as if they were being crushed by Mount Tai.
The outside world is far from peaceful, and there's even internal strife within the demon race. These people are truly short-sighted; turning against one's own kind is the most foolish thing to do.
They can't resist the slightest provocation and forget how fast the demon race has developed in the past two years. If they continue to develop steadily like this, they will surely become a breath of fresh air in the six realms.
“Envoy Song, it was the Xuan Tian God Lord of the ancient gods who sent an envoy here…” one of the elders finally spoke up.
Song Xiwei released the power suppression he had been under, allowing the elder to rise, and said, "Continue."
"Just a few days after you and Your Majesty left, the Xuan Tian Divine Lord of the ancient divine race sent a divine envoy, demanding that we hand over the four branches of the Demon Clan—east, west, south, and north. The envoy possesses a secret order, which is identical to the one held by our Demon Clan's first Demon Lord. We originally intended to wait for Your Majesty's return, but the divine envoy was pressing us urgently..."
"Where is that divine messenger now?" Song Xiwei asked the elder while sending a telepathic message to Aoqian.
Do you know the Mysterious Heavenly God Lord?
On the other side, Aoqian felt that he was getting closer and closer to the Demon King and would soon be able to capture him.
Suddenly, I felt a calling.
That was a special summons from the demon race.
"Little Aoqian, it's been a long time. Do you still remember me?"
Aoqian gazed calmly at the scene that had once appeared in his memory.
In his memory, even the old demon king and his mother had to bow down when they saw this person.
It turns out that this person is Xuan Ce, the chief disciple of the Xuan Tian God Lord, and is second only to the Xuan Tian God Lord in terms of divine status among the ancient gods.
Xuan Ce and the first Demon Lord had a deep connection. When the world was in chaos and the gods were at their strongest, the demons were still so weak. It was Xuan Ce who gave the demons a place, allowing the first Demon Lord to successfully pass on the demon race.
From that time onward, successive Demon Lords of the Demon Clan had to offer their loyalty while respectfully welcoming the divine messenger every ten years when the messenger descended.
Throughout the demon race, they are required to unconditionally obey any request from the God Lord.
