The mastermind behind the scenes starting with the calamity of all races

"Humans!?"

Even the usually composed Emperor Ming couldn't help but raise his voice upon hearing Yun Jie's words. Did the human race still possess such a terrifying existence?

"Of course," Yun Jie nodded.

After a brief moment of shock, the Emperor of Fate calmed down again. As the former overlord of the heavens, it was not surprising that the human race had such a foundation. But why was this person not seen in the previous nine tides? How could they be so tolerant?

Although the Emperor's expression was calm, Yun Jie could still guess what he was thinking, which was nothing more than guessing his identity and origin.

Emperor Ming calmly asked, "May I ask your name, senior?"

"My meager reputation is not worth mentioning. I was not famous in ancient times, and you probably wouldn't know even if I told you. But you can call me Wenyi."

"Wen Yi? King Wen?" Emperor Ming wondered to himself.

Seeing the Emperor's expression, Yun Jie secretly rejoiced. Yes, that's exactly what he thought. I am the contingency plan left behind by King Wen.

Immediately afterwards, in order to make Emperor Ming more convinced that he was a contingency plan left behind by King Wen, Yun Jie asked, "Wu Ming, do you still remember why your Realm of Fate can be suspended in the air and is responsible for connecting to the Upper Realm?"

As he spoke, Yun Jie withdrew the illusory mountain that had been suppressing the Emperor of Fate.

Emperor Ming had already realized the gap between himself and Yun Jie, and did not react excessively. He stood obediently to the side, and when Yun Jie asked him a question, he cupped his hands and respectfully replied, "Of course I remember."

"It's good that you remember. King Wen once said that the Great Dao of the Destiny Clan is very interesting. It allows one to know when to advance and retreat, and to understand the secrets of heaven. He asked you whether the Destiny Clan would be destroyed. Your grandfather's answer satisfied King Wen. I just don't know if your answer today will satisfy me..."

"As expected," Emperor Ming immediately confirmed Yun Jie's identity, believing that he was one of King Wen's men. Otherwise, he would not have known about the conversation between King Wen and his grandfather. This could only have been told to him by King Wen.

Emperor Ming fell silent upon hearing Yun Jie's words. He did not immediately agree, because he knew that his decision concerned the future of the Ming Clan and the lives of countless Ming Clan members. He needed to consider it with utmost care.

Yun Jie wasn't in a hurry. He gave Emperor Ming plenty of time to think. If Emperor Ming agreed without hesitation, Yun Jie would be uneasy and would definitely set up a restriction on him in the end.

Similarly, if the Emperor takes too long to consider, Yun Jie will also place a restriction on him. What Yun Jie needs is an answer that is neither too early nor too late.

Because that's the most resolute answer!

Perhaps knowing Yun Jie's thoughts, it wasn't long before Emperor Ming announced his decision: "My Ming clan is willing to submit to Your Majesty."

Emperor Ming is cunning; he didn't say he would submit to the human race, but only that he would submit to Yun Jie, which is quite interesting.

However, Yun Jie was not about to grant his wish. He looked at the Emperor of Fate with a smile and said, "You are wrong. It is not about submitting to me, but to the human race. I do not need your submission."

"This..." Emperor Ming hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted his teeth and answered, "Yes, my Ming clan is willing to submit to the human race."

Yun Jie nodded in satisfaction. "Very good, you're a smart person."

Emperor Ming gave a wry smile and said, "After all, I had no other choice, did I?"

"No, no, no, of course you have one, but the choice might be rather cruel."

The emperor bowed deeply to Yun Jie, saying, "Lord Wen, please be lenient."

"Hehe, don't worry, aren't we on the same side now? Our human race never attacks our own people."

Yun Jie continued, "Of course, neither I nor the humans of this tide will betray our allies like Bai Zhan, the human lord of the last tide. You can rest assured, Wuming."

While comforting the Emperor, Yun Jie also made a derogatory remark about Bai Zhan, revealing Yun Jie's resentment towards him...

······

After Yun Jie finished speaking...

Wuming's eyes flickered slightly. He knew a lot about Baizhan's "glorious deeds" and was deeply impressed by Baizhan's behavior of leaving his ally in distress.

Therefore, during the last tidal change, the Emperor of Destiny rejected Bai Zhan's repeated attempts to win him over without hesitation.

Are you kidding me? When fighting against powerful races like gods and demons, those who fall are mostly allies of the human race. Whenever a high-ranking member of the human race is in danger of falling, Bai Zhan will not hesitate to step in and save them. However, when allies are also in danger, Bai Zhan chooses to save the human race first.

Of course, it's not unreasonable for Bai Zhan, being a human, to prioritize saving humanity. However, this truly chilled the hearts of many allied races. We came to help you out of kindness, but you turned a blind eye to our plight. In the end, humanity's allies withdrew one after another...

Emperor Ming knew that Wen Yi said this to reassure himself and to show that he was different from Bai Zhan, and that he and Bai Zhan were not even on the same side.

"Then thank you very much, Lord Wen."

Although Yun Jie's promise was only verbal, it did reassure Emperor Ming.

Then Emperor Ming asked, "I wonder what plans Your Excellency has for my Ming clan next?"

The Emperor was subtly asking Yun Jie what the human race would do next.

"Don't worry, I have no plans to take action at the moment. Your Fate Clan can continue as before and maintain your neutrality. When the Human Holy Lord of this Tide appears in the Fate Realm, that will be the time for you to openly stand on the side of the Human Clan."

Emperor Ming was slightly taken aback and asked, "The human race's Holy Lord in this tide?"

Yun Jie nodded and smiled, "Yes, a peerless talent will emerge from this Tide Human race. You just need to wait patiently."

"Now I understand."

At this moment, Wuming thought of many things. It seemed that this Master Wen had already found someone he had his eye on. So, what kind of extraordinary talent was this person that even such a powerful figure was looking forward to? Had he already shone brightly on the battlefield of the heavens? Emperor Ming also became curious.

Yun Jie glanced at him and said, "Don't make wild guesses, and don't pay too much attention. You'll know when the time comes."

Emperor Ming's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately bowed and said, "I know I'm wrong."

Wuming knew that this was a warning from Yunjie.

"Good, you know," Yun Jie glanced at him. "What happened today is not to be told to anyone without my permission. Remember, anyone!"

Even though Yun Jie knew that the Emperor of Destiny was a person who knew his limits, Yun Jie was still afraid that the Emperor of Destiny would be frightened by Su Yu in the future and end up revealing everything, which would be troublesome.

Well, of course, it's just a bit of a hassle. The Emperor of Fate doesn't know his true identity, only that he is a backup plan left by King Wen, named Wen Yi, and knows nothing else.

"Yes, Wuming swears by the Great Dao of the Life Clan that he will never reveal what happened today to anyone."

As soon as Wuming finished speaking, a muffled thunderclap sounded outside. This was the Life Clan responding to Wuming's oath. If Wuming were to break his oath in the future, his cultivation would never advance. Of course, if he were to switch to cultivating another Great Dao, this oath would not have any effect on him. However, Wuming would not easily give up the Life Clan's Great Dao.

"Ah."

Yun Jie nodded. He did not take any coercive measures against Wuming, nor did he set any restrictions on him. He believed that Wuming was a pragmatic person.

Then, he teleported away right in front of Wuming, as if to tell Wuming, "I can come to the Realm of Fate anytime; don't do anything bad."

Wuming stared blankly at the spot where Yun Jie had disappeared, muttering, "Was it a Celestial Venerable or a Ruler? Does the myriad realms still have a Ruler at this moment?"

But Wuming quickly dismissed his own guess, "No, it shouldn't be the Lord of Rules, otherwise the human race would have already swept across the heavens. It should just be a Celestial Venerable, a Celestial Venerable who is extremely close to the Lord of Rules... It should be no weaker than Bai Zhan..."

"As expected of the human race. Through ten tidal changes, they still come up with one contingency plan after another. This time, even King Wen has revealed his contingency plan. So... what about that Human Emperor's..."

Then, the interior of Tianming Mountain fell silent again. When Yun Jie was there, the formation isolated him, and he did not feel the suppression of the power of the rules. However, as Yun Jie left, the formation was also released, and the overwhelming power of the rules surged towards Wuming. He had no choice but to fall into a deep sleep again.

······

······

After leaving the Realm of Fate, Yun Jie did not choose to go to the Iron Eater Clan, the Hou Clan, or the Ancient Space Beast Clan. Compared to the Fate Emperor, they were not so reliable, and they might sell him to Su Yu in the future.

Therefore, Yun Jie decided to leave them to Su Yu. Anyway, that little killer could definitely handle these ancient clans, so there was no need for him to prepare so much for him. Sometimes, the more you do, the more mistakes you make, and the easier it is to be exposed.

Moreover, Yun Jie doesn't intend to reduce the difficulty for Su Yu too much. What if he ruins him? If he ruins him, then he'll have to take action himself. That won't do. He won't leave the Three Gates and will never expose himself!

Sudden.

Yun Jie remembered that there was something he had forgotten to ask Wu Ming, which was about the passage to the upper realm.

Yun Jie sensed it and found that Wu Ming had fallen into a deep sleep again. He sighed and said, "Never mind, we'll see when the time comes."

Time flies, and five years have passed in the blink of an eye.

These past five years have been anything but peaceful on the battlefield of the heavens. Outside the Eastern Rift Valley, it was like a meat grinder, with armies of gods, demons, and humans constantly being thrown into it. In just five years, countless people on both sides have died or been wounded, and the troops of each prefecture have been almost completely replaced.

Even the Iron Eagle Guard, the Tiger Guard, and the White Tiger and Black Tortoise Armies suffered heavy losses. The personnel of these armies were also replaced. However, those who survived the five-year war had basically broken through to the Sky Soaring Realm or even the Cloud Soaring Realm.

Moreover, three years ago, Yun Jie also dispatched the Azure Dragon Legion to the battlefield of the heavens. Thus, the four legions of the Great Xuan Mansion were assembled, and the Four Sacred Beasts Formation was invincible on the Eastern Rift Valley front.

The most impressive force was the Vermilion Bird Army, with nearly half of its members having broken through to the Cloud Realm, and the remaining half having also reached the Soaring High Realm. Coupled with the Vermilion Bird Formation, the three races of gods, immortals, and demons often needed to send several times more people than the Vermilion Bird Army to stop them.

As a result, the Vermilion Bird Army became the "most beautiful" sight on the Eastern Rift Valley, attracting the admiration of countless human soldiers. Ji Ling, the commander of the Vermilion Bird Army, was even more favored by many high-ranking officials from various prefectures, who pursued Ji Ling madly in their spare time.

However, Ji Ling never paid any attention to the pursuit of these people. In her eyes, all of them combined were not worth a single finger of Yun Jie. Although Yun Jie had already married, Ji Ling still couldn't forget him, but she just didn't show it. She had also decided to remain unmarried for life and stay by Yun Jie's side to serve him.

Yun Jie was well aware of Ji Ling and Wei Yu's thoughts, and he had tried to persuade them, but to no avail. At that time, Yun Jie was filled with helplessness. His heart was very big, capable of accommodating many humans, but at the same time, his heart was also very small, only able to accommodate Jiang Yao.

Faced with their insistence, Yun Jie eventually gave up and let them be. It was fine if they didn't get married; they could devote themselves entirely to their work...

Today, Yun Jie, contrary to his usual behavior, came to the Battlefield of All Heavens, but he was not alone.

Eastern Rift Valley.

Upon noticing Yun Jie's arrival, Qin Guang, Xia Wushen, and the others appeared. Qin Guang asked curiously, "Yun Jie, what brings you here? And you've brought your sister-in-law with you."

"Greetings, Brother Qin, Brother Xia, and all the other brothers." Jiang Yao smiled slightly and bowed to everyone.

"Sister-in-law, there's no need to be so polite."

After Qin Guang finished speaking, he looked at Yun Jie again, waiting for Yun Jie's reply.

Jiang Yao answered first: "That's right. I have been in seclusion for many years, and today I finally feel the opportunity to unite my three bodies, so I want to come to the battlefield of the heavens to prove my Dao."

Xia Wushen was taken aback. "Proving your Dao here? Wait, I remember you have a legacy from a relic, right? Wouldn't it be better to prove your Dao within the relic? Why risk coming to the battlefield of the heavens?"

Jiang Yao shook her head and replied, "It is certainly safe to prove the Dao within the ruins, but I think that as time goes by, the future human race will need it more. At present, the situation in the battlefield of the heavens is not severe, and the invincible races are also confined within their domains. The risk of proving the Dao at this time is not as great as imagined. Besides, my brothers should be able to protect me, right?"

Although Jiang Yao said she was thinking about the future of the human race, she was actually thinking about her and Yun Jie's future child. She was willing to risk her life to come to the battlefield of the heavens to prove her Dao, so that she could leave the ruins to her child. Even though the child was still far from being born, Jiang Yao believed that it would happen sooner or later.

After Jiang Yao finished speaking, Qin Guang looked at Yun Jie, who shrugged and said helplessly, "I tried to persuade him, but it was no use."

Finally, Xia Wushen patted his chest and said confidently, "Of course, sister-in-law, don't worry, with us here, no one can stop you from attaining enlightenment!"

Following Xia Wushen's statement, the others nodded in agreement. Even though they didn't want to take the risk, they had to give Yun Jie face. Besides, Jiang Yao had a sweet tongue and kept calling him "brother," so they couldn't refuse.

"That's great, thank you everyone."
