"Elder sister." Unable to face all this, Xi Yan subconsciously swam to Shen Yanxiao's side to seek safety.
"Xi Yan, this is your hometown where your people used to live. Satan's arrival destroyed the beauty of this place and slaughtered all your companions. Xi Yan, from now on, you are the new merfolk ruler. You must inherit your father's legacy and use Neptune’s trident to summon your people together again to resist the invasion of the Devil Race." Shen Yanxiao looked at Xi Yan, who was at a loss. As far as experience was concerned, Xi Yan was like a newly born child. She was so ignorant about everything in this world, but as things stood, she had to sit on the position of the supreme commander of the Merfolk Race.
"Elder sister, I'm afraid... I can't do it..." Xi Yan leaned against Shen Yanxiao in panic, her body shivering. She simply could not imagine herself leading her people against Satan, who had killed all her compatriots; even more, she didn’t even know what it was like to be a ruler.
"Good Xi Yan, I know you’re afraid, but this is your responsibility. If you don't do this, one day in the future, all the merpeople living in this ocean will suffer the destruction of the their own towns; not only the merfolk, but human beings, dwarves, elves, dragons... all races will be doomed. That’s why you must be strong: for your father, for your people, and also for yourself." Shen Yanxiao knew that she could not relent now. The alliance against the Devil Race had lost the most crucial figures— the gods. The strength of the alliance at present was very different from that of the Devil Race. The power of each race was crucial to them. If the merpeople could not fight with them, then it was uncertain whether they could defeat the Devil Race. After all, there were more merpeople than any other race.
