Chapter 2002

Looking at the current situation, even Wang Man was, for a moment, somewhat unsure of how to handle it.

The Human Race's strength is strong now, but it is still far from the point of being able to contend with all the races.

Just as Wang Man was deep in thought, the imaging array disk suddenly lit up, and after connecting, he saw Yu Mo say anxiously.

"Junior Brother, news has come from the Spirit Race that the Ancient Race is heading toward your location."

Upon hearing this, Wang Man's expression did not change much, and he gave a bitter smile.

"I'm afraid it's not just the Ancient Race."

"What is going on?"

Yu Mo immediately had a bad feeling; what did Wang Man mean by that? Upon hearing this, Wang Man did not hide anything and spoke bluntly.

"The ancestral land has now been completely surrounded by various races; I'm afraid the other major hegemons have already secretly joined forces, with the goal of wiping out my Human Race."

"This..."

Once these words were spoken, Yu Mo was stunned.

If the other five major hegemonic races joined forces, that basically meant the Human Race would have to fight against all the races of the Haotu World on its own?

How could this be possible?

Although the Human Race has its own subordinate races, don't forget that they have them too; with the five major hegemonic races joining forces, they have almost encompassed over sixty percent of the races in the Haotu World.

The remaining neutral races cannot change anything at all, and they would definitely not dare to intervene.

How could they possibly interfere in the struggles between hegemonic races?

Let alone when it is the five major hegemonic races joining forces to deal with the Human Race together.

With an ugly expression, he pondered for a moment, and soon, Yun Xiantai, Qi Xiong, Saint Lord Yunluo, and a group of other ancestors all rushed over; it looked like they had already stopped their operations on their side.

It makes sense; their home is about to be gone, so where would they have the mood to care about anything else? Moreover, the five major hegemonic races joining forces is no small matter.

"A bunch of dogs, when did they get mixed up together?"

"What do we do now?"

"Let's return to reinforce; the ancestral land cannot be lost. At worst, we'll fight them to the death."

The first thought of all the ancestors was to return to reinforce; as for the Ancient Race, that was definitely abandoned.

Protect their own ancestral land first.

But just as the ancestors decided to return to reinforce, Ye Changqing, who was beside Wang Man, suddenly said.

"We cannot return to reinforce."

"Hmm??? Changqing kid, what do you mean by this?"

The ancestors were puzzled; if they didn't return to reinforce now, wouldn't that be handing over the ancestral land on a silver platter? How could that be allowed?

The ancestral land is the foundation of a race; without its fortune, let alone developing, the Human Race would probably decline before long.

Facing the questioning of the ancestors, Ye Changqing said with a serious expression.

"We cannot return to reinforce; returning to reinforce is a dead end. Respected ancestors, assuming the other five major hegemonic races have truly joined forces, even if you return to reinforce now, do you really have the confidence to protect the ancestral land?"

"This..."

Ye Changqing's question made all the ancestors fall silent. Do they have confidence? Obviously, they do not.

Not to mention anything else, the gap in the Emperor Realm is just too large.

The five major hegemonic races, even if the Demon Race has already been crippled, combined, the number of Emperor ancestors is at least over fifty.

And the Human Race? Counting everyone, there are only thirteen. With this gap, let alone hope, how could there be any chance of victory?

Although many people in the three great holy lands have broken through to the Great Saint Realm during this period, there is not a single newly promoted Emperor yet.

There is no way; it takes time.

Seeing the ancestors silent, Ye Changqing continued.

"Therefore, even if we return to reinforce, it will be of no use; the enemy might even hope for us to return to reinforce, so they can wipe us out in one fell swoop."

Ye Changqing's words were not without reason, and this was exactly what the other five major hegemonic races were thinking, only they did not yet know that there were hardly any people left inside the Human Race's ancestral land.

Hearing Ye Changqing's words, the ancestors calmed down, and Qi Xiong asked.

"Then in your opinion, what should we do now?"

"Abandon the ancestral land."

Ye Changqing said without hesitation.

"What?"

Once these words were spoken, the ancestors were directly shocked. Give up the ancestral land? Wouldn't that mean being uprooted by them?

The ancestors could not believe that Ye Changqing would say such a thing, but Ye Changqing naturally had his reasons for saying so.

"Respected ancestors, judging by the current situation, the ancestral land can only become a burden."

"If the ancestral land remains, we are effectively trapped here, and the five major hegemonic races are willing to see this result."

"The current ancestral land is a liability to us."

"But without the ancestral land, the race's fortune..."

"I didn't say to abandon it completely; it's only temporary."

"With the five major hegemonic races joining forces, we are definitely not their match in a head-on fight. Since they have all concentrated on our Human Race's ancestral land, we might as well give the ancestral land to them."

"I think their rear defenses must be empty now, right? They took our ancestral land, so can't we also..."

Hmm???

Following Ye Changqing's words, the ancestors finally slowly began to understand, and their eyes gradually brightened.

This idea is not bad; if a head-on fight won't work, then I'll play hide-and-seek with you.

I don't want the ancestral land anymore, and I'll give you the Golden Dragon of Fortune, but I'm afraid there aren't many people in your ancestral lands right now either. Exchanging ancestral lands with each other is not a loss for me.

Moreover, without the constraints of the ancestral land, frankly speaking, there is more room for everyone to maneuver.

By then, even if the five major hegemonic races want to make a move against the Human Race, they have to be able to find them first.

This is just like those mountain bandits and outlaws in mortal dynasties.

Their strength is clearly inferior to the dynasty, but it is very difficult for the dynasty to clear them out. Why?

Because they have no fixed residence. If I can't beat you, I'll just dive into the mountains. Even if you have hundreds of thousands of troops, what can you do to me?

I am a person who makes the world my home; I rob wherever I go. What can your imperial court do to me?

It's the same principle. That is why Ye Changqing said that, given the current situation, the ancestral land is a burden; rather than holding onto it, it is better to abandon it directly.

By then, without the constraints of the ancestral land, it will be like birds flying in the vast sky and fish leaping in the wide sea.

With the capabilities of our Human Race, finding opportunities to defeat them one by one is not impossible.

But the premise is that this ancestral land cannot be defended; it must be abandoned.

"But... if we don't return, what will happen to you?"

At this time, the Saint Lord of Yaochi asked. They themselves had no problems, but what about Ye Changqing, Wang Man, and the others?

The area around the ancestral land has now been completely surrounded by various races; rushing out is almost impossible. If everyone does not return to reinforce, wouldn't Ye Changqing and the others be on a dead end?

Upon hearing this, the brows of Qi Xiong and the others furrowed tightly again. That's right, what about Ye Changqing and the others?

Ye Changqing himself, however, had no worries about this at all; he grinned and said mysteriously.

"Don't worry, Third Senior Brother and I have long been prepared."

"Prepared?"

"Third Senior Brother? Who? That kid Xu Jie?"
