Primordial Era: A Counterattack Against Hongjun Daozu at the Start

Di Jun spoke slowly, his eyes flashing as he pondered a solution.

The human race's current strength should not be underestimated.

Li Yun, Ye Yi, and the ruthless man are already comparable to the demon race's commander.

If it weren't a life-or-death battle, the outcome would be uncertain.

"However, the strength of the human race is limited to a few powerful individuals; the others are not worth fearing."

"If a real fight breaks out, victory will belong to us."

"But things are different now. They've joined forces with the Witch Clan, which is troublesome."

Di Jun continued, "Once the alliance is solidified, it will pose a huge threat to the demon race's dominance."

"The witch clan has actually learned to use cunning; allying with the human race is not good for us."

"Brother, I'm going into seclusion. You take care of the affairs of Heaven."

"Just record what happens in the lower realm; don't act impulsively."

Di Jun took out the Hetu Luoshu and gained inspiration from it, determined to find help for the demon race.

Taiyi God nodded in agreement.

In the human territory outside the city, the barbecue feast has been going on for a month.

The witch clan members came in turns without interruption.

This large-scale interaction alerted various races in the prehistoric world, who came to investigate.

Everyone was stunned to see the witch clan gathering together in the human territory.

The news of the alliance between the Witch Clan and the Human Clan spread rapidly throughout the prehistoric land.

Regardless of size, all groups heard the news.

Xuan Du was extremely anxious upon receiving the news.

The human race's actions were too drastic, and his master, the Supreme Being, had a delicate relationship with the human race, putting him in a dilemma.

I'm afraid of upsetting my supervisor if I report it, but I'm also worried about failing in my duty if I don't.

He paced back and forth, hesitant.

"What's the matter that you're in such a hurry? Come in."

The Supreme Being's voice came from inside the room, and the door opened.

Xuandu paused for a moment, then slowly walked in and told Taishang what had happened.

Tai Shang suddenly opened his eyes, a cold glint flashing in them.

Xuandu felt a chill and realized that his master had murderous intent.

For many years, the Supreme Being he had always seen was calm and composed, but now his emotions were fluctuating so greatly because of the human race.

Xuandu sensed that something was wrong.

After a while, Taishang regained his composure.

"You may leave now. I will handle this matter. You need not concern yourself with news of the human race." The Supreme One's voice became steady once again.

"Yes." Xuan Du bowed respectfully and quickly left.

As he watched Xuandu's departing figure, a fleeting, unfathomable emotion flashed in Taishang's eyes.

"If Xuandu hadn't maintained the last vestige of life for the Human Sect, I'm afraid that person would have really shaken my foundation."

He thought to himself, "Since you've chosen to die by associating with the witch clan, then let's all perish together in the war between the witches and demons."

The Supreme Being had made up his mind. He knew that temporary peace did not guarantee permanence. If the human race were to become stronger, the matter of his own destiny being severed would inevitably be brought up repeatedly. This absolutely could not happen.

In the primordial world, there were some races that did not join the demon race, among which the spirit race, formed from plant spirits, was the largest. They formed alliances with each other, creating a unique race.

When the demon race attacked the human race, the spirit race saw this as an opportunity and attempted to expand into human territory.

However, seeing the alliance between the humans and the witches, some members of the Elven race felt extremely panicked.

Many members of the Spirit Clan began to consider how to befriend the Human Clan in order to protect themselves. Even Zhen Yuanzi, who had always stayed away from conflict, learned of the major changes in the Human and Witch Clan.

"Humanity has risen and is destined to become an undeniable force in the primordial world," Zhen Yuanzi murmured. "Demon race, you have sown the seeds of deep hatred for the massacre of humanity. Now that they have allied with the witch race, your days are numbered."

Originally, Zhen Yuanzi didn't have much of a problem with the demon race, but their cruel behavior changed his mind.

In his view, the rise of the human race is a good thing.

However, why would the Wu tribe easily form an alliance with the human race? Zhen Yuanzi was filled with questions. He knew that the Wu tribe revered strength and was often embroiled in internal strife. Even though there were powerful figures like Zhou Yi among the humans, the majority were still ordinary members of their tribe.

Zhen Yuanzi decided to investigate the reasons for the alliance between the Wu tribe and the human tribe.

"I'll have to trouble Fellow Daoist Houtu this time," he said. "But it's alright, given our friendship, a simple inquiry shouldn't be a problem."

Having made up his mind, Zhen Yuanzi said a few words to his disciples and left, his figure disappearing in an instant.

Inside the Pangu Temple, Di Hong, Hou Tu, and Yu Qiang sat facing each other. Di Hong broke the silence first, asking Hou Tu why he was unwilling to see that person, because he felt there should be some connection between them.

Upon hearing this question, Hou Tu lowered her head, avoiding his gaze, not wanting to elaborate on the reasons, both because it was difficult to say and because she was afraid of being scolded by her elder brother. She simply gave a vague and ambiguous response.

Seeing Hou Tu's embarrassment, Yu Qiang decided to tell her the truth.

"Big brother, don't force my sister, let me tell you." Yu Qiang stood up and recounted in detail what happened that day.

Di Hong's expression shifted from confusion to surprise, and finally to helplessness. He imagined his little sister secretly grilling meat, feeling both angry and amused.

After listening, he breathed a sigh of relief and said he would not interfere too much in the relationship between the Earth and the human race.

"Thank you for your understanding, brother," Hou Tu said softly.

Yu Qiang pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "Sister, don't forget to thank me too. Because I went with you, I don't even dare to eat barbecue now." She was actually a little aggrieved. She wanted to enjoy the food with Hou Tu, but she could only watch from afar.

Seeing Yu Qiang's expression, Hou Tu smiled and thanked her.

After understanding the situation, Emperor Hong, considering the increasingly close ties between the Witch Clan and the Human Clan, decided to leave to take control of the overall situation.

At that moment, a golden light flew swiftly and stopped outside the Wu tribe's territory. Hou Tu realized that it was Zhen Yuanzi who had come to visit, and a thought struck him, knowing that this visit must have a purpose.

This matter might concern the relationship between the Witch Clan and the Human Clan. Mentioning Zhen Yuanzi brought back memories for Yu Qiang. The scene of that battle instantly reappeared in her mind.

"That troublesome guy is here again. I'm not going to see him."

"Sister, you handle this yourself. I'm going to get some barbecue."

Yu Qiang was afraid of Zhen Yuanzi and did not want to be involved in any more trouble related to him.

The thought of delicious barbecue made her turn and run away.

"Fellow Daoist Houtu," Zhen Yuanzi's voice broke the silence of the temple.

"Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi, what brings you here today?" After bowing, Zhen Yuanzi went straight to the point: "I heard you've formed an alliance with the human race, so I've come to inquire about the situation."

The rise of humanity and its interactions with the witches made him realize that this could be a world-changing event. He wanted to learn more about it and see if he could participate and secure a place for himself.

Upon hearing this, Hou Tu pondered for a moment before replying, explaining that it was not an alliance, but rather that the relationship between the two sides had become much closer, and they had only recently engaged in some exchanges.

She was conflicted; she didn't want Zhen Yuanzi to misunderstand, but she also didn't want to reveal too many details.

Zhen Yuanzi became even more certain after hearing this, believing that the Wu tribe and the human tribe had a plan in place long ago.

He thought to himself that the human race's Zhou Yi was extraordinary, possessing intelligence, courage, and strength, and now, in alliance with the Wu race, their power had greatly increased.

So he said, "I'd like to join you too, is that okay?"
