"What are you talking about? Having a son so early is unheard of."

Li Mo's forehead creased with annoyance. Although he had lived two lives, he was only sixteen years old in this life, and would be seventeen in three months.

"It's getting late."

Wu Qing recalled:

"When I met Brother Feng, and when I gave birth to Xiao'er, I was only a little over a hundred years old..."

According to the age of Demon Race, one hundred years old is roughly equivalent to fourteen years old in humans.

"The physical constitutions of demons and humans cannot be generalized."

Li Mo waved his hand.

Shang Qinqing glanced at the serious-looking Little Li, then at Ying Bing, who seemed indifferent, her gaze wandering as if she hadn't heard anything at all, while her lips were Ying Bing.

Ice Block doesn't quite understand what you guys are talking about. jpg

The Clan Leader Shang couldn't suppress the smirk:

"It's quite common for humans to have children at sixteen, even in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. But before that, they have to get married first."

"It seems that the Clan Leader Shang used to be in charge of marriages; everyone had to have Green Phoenix as their witness before getting married."

Wu Qing acknowledged Shang Qinqing's authority in this area.

"When you two plan to get married, how about I be the master of ceremonies?"

Shang Qinqing asked with a smile.

She didn't ask the two of them if they planned to get married; instead, she directly asked if they wanted her to be the master of ceremonies. No wonder she was once the goddess of love in Great Shang! Every move was deadly, yet so subtle!

"Huh? This..."

Li Mo was about to open his mouth when a dumpling was stuffed into it.

Ying Bing pulled back her chopsticks and said softly:

"Eat slowly, be careful not to eat golden beans."

Shang Qinqing was unwilling to give up and wanted to make a big sacrifice:

"Oh, right, I have a phoenix coronet and wedding robe. It's a priceless treasure left by the empress of the previous dynasty. Wearing it on your wedding day will surely strengthen your bond. Little Bing, how about I give it to you to wear?"

"So precious?" Li Mo blinked.

Ying Bing tucked a few strands of hair behind her ear. "Li Mo, are we going to spend the New Year at home this year? Let's bring some Southern Border for your uncle and aunt."

Li Mo thought for a moment, then nodded and said:

"For example, should we bring some local clothing from Southern Border?"

Ying Bing's eyes flickered slightly. "Let's bring some snacks and tea instead..."

"..."

Shang Qinqing puffed out her cheeks, looking Jiujiu.

They weren't satisfied with their experience and are unhappy.

Before she could speak, Ying Bing interrupted her, saying:

"Li Mo, didn't you have something you wanted to ask of the senior Demon Race? There's no time to lose."

"Yes, this matter is quite important."

Li Mo crossed his arms, his expression serious and earnest.

"I've heard that many of the Calamity Beast exist by relying on the Power of All Living Beings. Does that mean that as long as there are still people who believe in them, they will eventually be resurrected?"

"That's right."

Shang Qinqing snorted, feeling that although this was a serious matter, it was not as important as having a son as soon as possible.

"Actually, it's much better than before. The Calamity Beast of the past were much stronger than they are now. It was only after the arrival of the Prince of Southern Pacification that things improved significantly."

When Wu Qing was young, the Southern Border was basically the domain of Calamity Beast.

Therefore, the Cry Dragon clan would rather risk moving the entire clan to the territory of the human race than stay in the Southern Border.

He was only brought over after he sneezed so much.

It was during that period that the Prince of Southern Pacification came to the Southern Border.

He greatly expanded the territory of Great Yu in the Southern Border region, and also gradually integrated many Southern Border region into the Central Plains. Greenwood City is one such example.

Most of the people in Southern Border no longer worship Witch Spirit.

If Emperor Jingtai had continued to provide full support, the Prince of Southern Pacification might have been able to expand his territory further, at which point the Calamity Beast would have been further weakened, or even eliminated.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned.

Li Mo asked, "Then, can we stop people from believing in Witch Spirit?"

"Easier said than done."

"That's right, many ethnic minorities in Southern Border are not as cultured as we are."

"I'll become their god, won't I?"

After saying that, Li Mo sat up straight, ate the dumpling on Ying Bing's chopsticks, and swallowed it in an instant!

"..."

The large tent fell silent for a moment.

The demons looked at each other, all seeing the astonishment in each other's expressions.

"You want to absorb the Power of All Living Beings?"

Shang Qinqing's eyes widened. Seeing Li Mo's serious expression, she gave Ying Bing a meaningful look.

Your future husband has gone crazy, aren't you going to do anything about it?!

Ying Bing also frowned.

She knew Li Mo; she knew he wasn't the type to act recklessly. His sudden announcement of absorbing the Power of All Living Beings —perhaps he had some kind of preparation in mind?

"The Power of All Living Beings is not so easy to absorb."

"Yes, although you can become very powerful in a short time, you will be constantly influenced by the distracting thoughts within the Power of All Living Beings, and may even become a different person. Moreover, once you lose your faith, you will perish along with them."

"Yes, look at Clan Leader Shang, don't you understand the seriousness of the matter?"

"?"

There's definitely a reason why Shang Qinqing loves shipping so much.

Although she is not Witch Spirit, many people in the Southern Border borderlands and even throughout the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths pray to her.

"Don't worry, everyone. I'm not using the Power of All Living Beings to cultivate; I'm doing it for another purpose."

"Furthermore, I possess a method similar to the Marriage Tree, capable of purifying the Power of All Living Beings. However, the amount purified is relatively small, probably not enough for cultivation..."

Li Mo didn't hide anything.

Seeing that his expression did not seem to be feigned, the demons were finally relieved.

"I know an Image-Mimicking Martial Arts that uses shapeshifting to transform into other races. If the many tribes in the Southern Border all believe in the demons I create, they will no longer provide the Power of All Living Beings to the Calamity Beast."

"But how can you get them to believe you?" Wu Qing asked.

The demons were also happy to see this happen.

They would love for the Calamity Beast to disappear from the Southern Border borderlands.

Li Mo coughed lightly, mimicking Ice Block's aloof expression, as if everything was under control:

"Then I will need to trouble you senior Demon Race to cooperate with my performance."

"Don't worry, I'm the first-ever Best Actor winner at the Golden Statue Award. Your performance with me will be absolutely flawless!"

"..."

"How to act it?"

"Each situation must be analyzed individually, taking into account the specific circumstances of each tribe."

Li Mo took out a map.

He was about to discuss the matter with everyone using the map when the bald-headed Peng Lingyuangou pointed at the map and asked doubtfully:

"Li Mo Mountain... Li Mo River... Li Mo?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, so cute! He's everywhere, you'll never get lost, right?"

Shang Qinqing wanted to roll around on the ground again.

The demons smiled comically, their lips curling up in a smirk.

Not only do they have dumplings and barbecue, but they also have dog food.

This trip was definitely worthwhile.

Li Mo: "..."

He pulled out another map and got back to business.
