Primordial Era: A Counterattack Against Hongjun Daozu at the Start

According to Zhu Song, the Wu tribe, as descendants of the Father God, should be superior to all other races in the primordial world.

In his eyes, the dragon race was nothing more than the afterglow of its past glory. Even when they appeared occasionally, they did not display any astonishing power and were not worth fearing.

"Indeed, we personally invited them, and all twelve of us went together with great sincerity, but they refused without hesitation."

The water god echoed, his words filled with dissatisfaction, "And then he turned around and joined forces with the dragons."

Di Hong and the others remained silent, pondering the meaning behind this change.

However, their expressions revealed their inner thoughts.

Di Hong, in particular, frowned deeply, already considering whether he needed to personally go to the human race to find out the truth of the matter.

After all, the time ahead is crucial for the Wu Clan. They don't have the extra energy to deal with other variables. Their goal is to eliminate the Demon Clan and completely control the prehistoric world.

"Perhaps we should wait and see," Hou Tu said slowly as he stood up. "After all, this isn't the most crucial moment yet; we still have time. I can go to the human race and speak with Zhou Yi in person."

Upon hearing her words, everyone cast different glances at her.

People were filled with doubt, surprise, and astonishment. Yu Qiang had already explained to them everything that had happened.

Strictly speaking, the initial rise of the Book of Changes was mainly due to its sister, Hou Tu.

This indicates that the two have a very close relationship.

At this moment, Di Hong was filled with regret, secretly thinking that if he had known these things earlier, perhaps Zhou Yi would have already become a member of the Wu Clan and served them. Faced with this helpless situation, everyone could only silently nod in agreement.

"Tell him then that as long as he doesn't interfere in the Lich War, we will never forget his contributions after our victory." After saying this, Di Hong turned his gaze to Hou Tu.

Hou Tu nodded slightly, but his heart was filled with unease. He worried that if Zhou Yi insisted on becoming a third party, their friendship might vanish in an instant.

Upon learning of the human race's whereabouts, Styx left the Blood Sea and quickly headed towards Wuzhuang Temple.

In fact, what most people don't know is that Styx and Zhen Yuanzi have a certain relationship, though not particularly deep, but much better than that of ordinary people.

Just as Zhen Yuanzi received information about the changes in the human race, Styx came to visit and suddenly appeared beside Zhen Yuanzi.

"What do you think of the current situation of the Witch Clan?" Styx's face showed an eager expression, and his eyes gleamed with excitement, which made Zhen Yuanzi frown and feel displeased.

He knew that Styx cultivated the path of slaughter, the very path taken by the one who challenged the Dao Ancestor. To continue progressing on this path, he would likely need to engage in large-scale battles.

In the past, Rahu found an opportunity to break through by making three races powerful enough to rule the prehistoric world kill each other.

Nowadays, finding a war of this scale is not easy. The Lich War barely meets the criteria, but some conditions are still missing.

However, the current situation of humans and dragons perfectly meets the needs of the Styx.

"Are you planning to get involved in this struggle?" Zhen Yuanzi asked directly, his sharp gaze fixed on the Styx River.

Styx nodded without hesitation, revealing his intentions without any attempt to conceal them.

"I suggest you abandon this idea. The Dao Ancestor is still alive. If he discovers your actions, the consequences could be unimaginable," Zhen Yuanzi said solemnly, trying to dissuade Styx from acting rashly.

At the same time, he was puzzled as to why the human race would ally with the dragon race.

Why choose the dragon race?

If there is such a need.

In fact, Wuzhuang Temple is also capable of providing assistance.

Styx remained unfazed, as if everything was within his expectations.

"That's why I came to you. If we join forces, I promise you won't be shortchanged once things are successful." His words carried a hint of temptation.

"Don't bring this up again. I have absolutely no interest in this kind of thing, and you know what kind of person I am." Zhen Yuanzi refused Minghe without hesitation.

Styx met with a rebuff.

But he did not give up easily.

As he turned to leave, he was making plans in his mind.

Although there are not many strong people left from his era, they have not all disappeared.

Besides Zhen Yuanzi, he also considered other candidates.

If he could persuade the human race to join the Lich War, his path to sainthood would become much clearer.

"Zhou Yi, what exactly are you planning?" Zhen Yuanzi felt increasingly uneasy. After racking his brains without finding a solution, he suddenly slapped his thigh and decided to personally go to the human race to investigate.

This small change in the human race caused a huge uproar among various forces, plunging them into shock and deep thought, and even causing them to temporarily forget their own duties.

All of this was exactly what Hongjun wanted.

Inside the Purple Cloud Palace, Hongjun slowly opened his eyes, calculated with his fingers, and learned the details of the transaction between the human race and the dragon race. He nodded in satisfaction.

"Although it was a variable, he understood that the overall situation was irreversible and did not intervene forcefully, which was quite wise of him."

"Given this, I will not interfere forcefully. Let him seek some advantages in the Lich War."

Hongjun's words, like a divine mandate, resonated throughout the world.

No sooner had he finished speaking than many places that had been previously closed to humans suddenly opened up.

Meanwhile, the human race received multiple reports that only one of the monsters who was supposed to come to collect the wine for sale had arrived this time, leaving behind the words "I'm not doing this business anymore" before hurriedly departing.

This matter was quickly reported to Xiao Ling'er and Shan.

"What are you going to do?"

"Could it be because they saw our cooperation with the dragons and want to distance themselves from us?" Shan asked疑惑地.

"Things are probably not that simple; there must be something more to it."

"Report this matter to the master immediately." Xiao Ling'er's expression was serious.

During their report, the strongholds originally scattered throughout the prehistoric world responsible for the sale of alcohol instantly transformed into military strongholds. These strongholds, spread across the prehistoric world, resembled an invisible net, subtly showing a trend of unification and steadily advancing towards the Wu tribe.

To the south of Shouyang Mountain, three interconnected mountains stretch across the land. At their foot, the demon race advances like a slowly surging black tide.

"Chieftain, isn't it inappropriate for us to act directly without reporting to our superiors?" The speaker was a member of the demon clan named Pian, his face filled with worry.

The entire snake tribe was stationed here, and their chieftain stood before them.

After receiving the order, they set up camp here, but the long wait made these naturally lively demon clan members impatient.

Upon hearing this, the clan chief turned around abruptly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. His icy gaze seemed to pierce through him, startling him into immediately shutting up and daring not to utter another word.

"What do you know!" the chieftain said in a low voice. "Every second counts in this situation. If we can capture the Wu tribe's stronghold ahead and expand our sphere of influence, won't the rewards from our superiors be plentiful?"

Everyone stay close. Anyone who falls behind at this crucial moment will be skinned alive.
