Primordial: I, Dijun, Only Want to Build the Great Desolation-Chapter 893 - 529: The Unyielding Zu Xun, Another Exchange Between Heavenly Dao and Human Path
"I..."
Zu Xun wished to say more, but Shaohao did not give him a chance.
"You need not say more. Now, as the Human Race’s Lord, I can only think of doing it this way. When you become the Human Race’s Lord, you can do as you wish."
Upon hearing this, Zu Xun kept silent.
At the same time, the conversation between Shaohao and Zu Xun also ended here.
Time swiftly passed by, and under Shaohao’s leadership, the dragon, phoenix, and human tribes all developed and flourished.
However, just as Zu Xun had initially said, the status of the dragon and phoenix tribes within the human clan was too high, perhaps to the point where there was no longer a distinction of priority.
Shaohao also realized this, but he did not take direct action; instead, he secretly supported and strengthened the dissenting voices led by Zu Xun.
One day, Fu Xi’s Good Corpse, holding the Void Seal, left the Fire Cloud Cave once more and came to the Human Clan Ancestral Land to meet with Shaohao.
He instructed Shaohao to prepare to head to the Fire Cloud Cave. At that time, Shaohao’s cultivation realm had not yet reached Daluo Golden Immortal.
Compared to the time the Three Emperors had ruled the human tribe, Shaohao’s time ruling was much shorter, and his cultivation realm had not significantly improved.
Shaohao seemed to have long been prepared for this, for after receiving Emperor Fu Xi’s decree, he immediately distributed invitations, just like the Three Emperors had done before, inviting all beings from the Primordial to witness the event.
However, this time, the Saints did not come and only sent their disciples.
With the Three Emperors completing their roles, the foundation of the human race had been laid, so naturally, the Saints would not come for a lord who did not hold the Heavenly Destiny of the human race.
Although the Saints did not come, the ceremony continued as planned.
Similarly, the human race’s innate Taoist body’s fate did not manifest; instead, the Human Dao Golden Wheel appeared, bestowing merit and destiny upon Shaohao.
With the aid of this merit and destiny, Shaohao broke through to the Daluo Golden Immortal.
Subsequently, Shaohao announced Zu Xun’s succession as the Human Race’s Lord, which greatly shocked many creatures within the human tribe.
It should be noted that Zu Xun had always opposed Shaohao’s policies, so why did Shaohao favor him to become the Human Race’s Lord?
For a moment, many creatures who also had designs on the Human Race’s Lord position looked at Zu Xun with discontent.
However, when facing these gazes, Zu Xun displayed a cold demeanor, seemingly dismissing these creatures from his consideration.
Then, Shaohao was taken away by the sages of the Fire Cloud Cave, and Zu Xun became the Human Race’s Lord. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
After becoming the Human Race’s Lord, Zu Xun first abolished the glorification of the dragon and phoenix tribes, though he did not abolish the status of dragon and phoenix totems, nor did he immediately reduce the merits and destiny enjoyed by the dragon and phoenix tribes.
Because, indeed, the reputation of the dragon and phoenix tribes among humankind was very high, and the creatures of the two tribes, under Shaohao’s leadership, had indeed done many things for the human race.
Relying on the merit and destiny they enjoyed, Zu Xun naturally wouldn’t shortchange them.
Moreover, at present, Zu Xun had no time to truly address the issues concerning the dragon and phoenix tribes within the human clan.
His primary concern was dealing with the many creatures in the human race who did not obey him, those who wanted to challenge him for the position of Human Race’s Lord.
Faced with these creatures, Zu Xun naturally did not back down, nor did he attempt to stabilize the human race by soothing or persuading them.
In Zu Xun’s view, these creatures were the greatest factors affecting the stability of the human race, and there was no need to soothe or persuade them.
Only through struggle could they be truly subdued.
Thus, Zu Xun confrontationally fought with many factions within the human race, even among many fighting practitioners.
And among many Taiyi Golden Immortal creatures, none could surpass Zu Xun.
But some human creatures had the support of races or factions behind them, even being able to invite creatures at the Daluo Golden Immortal level to completely suppress Zu Xun.
When facing creatures with cultivation realms higher than his own, Zu Xun did not back down, showing no trace of fear on his face, but instead questioned loudly.
"This is an internal matter of my human race. Do you really intend to intervene?"
"Do you think you are bullying us humans because we don’t have creatures of the Daluo Golden Immortal level? Have you even asked the Fire Cloud Cave’s sages whether they agree?"
"Moreover, back then the Demon Emperor issued a decree that conflicts within the human race should be resolved by humans themselves, and no other tribal forces may intervene."
"Violators will be personally suppressed by the Demon Emperor."
For a moment, the invited Daluo Golden Immortals were frightened by Zu Xun’s words.
This concerned the struggle for the position of the Human Race’s Lord, and the sages of Fire Cloud Cave would inevitably pay attention, and at that time, both the involved creatures and their tribes might be implicated.
After all, although the human sages were suppressing the human clan’s fortune and stabilizing the Human Path in Fire Cloud Cave, it wasn’t as though they had never left.
Just this fact alone made many creatures dare not act recklessly.
It must be known that within the Fire Cloud Cave, there was no shortage of Daluo Golden Immortal creatures, and even Quasi-Saints and Saints were present.
As for what Zu Xun said afterward, they did not know if it was true or false, but they dared not act recklessly.
If they remembered correctly, the Demon Emperor did indeed issue this decree during the conquests of the human tribes.
However, in the current situation, would the Demon Emperor’s decree still hold?
On this matter, they naturally dared not ask the Demon Emperor, choosing instead to remain silent.
Because they did not need to question this point; just the human sages of the Fire Cloud Cave were enough to stop them from acting recklessly.
They had not forgotten how Emperor Fu Xi and the Three Ancestors of the human tribe had unified the humans, nor had they forgotten how Earth Emperor Shennong once invited the sages from the Fire Cloud Cave.
