Chapter 449: We are people of Earth

For the next half month, Yin Qi was secretly setting up an array to avoid news leaking out and alerting the Ancient Races.

Externally, he claimed to be in seclusion for cultivation.

During this period, the outside world was truly lively.

People were fiercely debating his merits and faults.

Many held great "goodwill" toward the Ancient Races, believing that this was no longer the Primordial Era and that the human race was no longer what it once was; the Ancient Races could not possibly treat humans as blood food anymore.

Thus, they naturally believed there was no need for the human race to fight the Ancient Races to the death and drag all of humanity into the water.

Those with even more intense rhetoric went so far as to clamor that Yin Qi was a sinner of the human race.

Yin Qi did not care about these things.

What he cared about was the attitude of the major powers, and the result was as he had expected.

Apart from the Jiang family and the Yaochi Sacred Land, who clearly expressed their support for him, all other parties had ambiguous attitudes; they only symbolically sent some people to the Holy City under the pressure of public opinion, saying they were there to follow Yin Qi's orders.

But these people were not only few in number, but their highest cultivation was only at the Dragon Transformation Realm, making them completely useless.

Pang Bo was indignant about this and shouted angrily: "Yin Qi, in my opinion, these humans of the Big Dipper star are simply not worth you paying such a price."

"A group of ungrateful wretches, a group of selfish hypocrites."

"We are people of Earth; at worst, we can just go back to Earth. Why bother with the life or death of the people here?"

"I don't believe the Ancient Races could chase us all the way to Earth."

Ye Fan frowned; he also felt that the major powers were being too excessive, completely using Yin Qi as a scapegoat.

But in the whole world, those who supported Yin Qi were still in the majority.

For instance, during this period, more than ten thousand hot-blooded individuals came from all directions, including many famous experts, all expressing their desire to follow Yin Qi and fight the Ancient Races to the end.

Yin Qi did not show himself during this time; he was responsible for receiving and arranging these people.

According to Yin Qi's intentions, it seemed he wanted to gather this group of people.

Regarding Pang Bo's confusion, Yin Qi just smiled and continued to set up the array in secret.

If he were just a cultivator, he could certainly act on his grievances and would not need to risk his life for the human race, seeking only to have his heart's desires fulfilled.

But he was not.

He was the Human Emperor; he was in the Fengshen world, and he remained so in the Zhetian world.

A Human Emperor must have the breadth of mind and sense of responsibility of a Human Emperor.

Furthermore, he intended to establish a Heavenly Court in the future; if he lacked sufficient merit and prestige, even if he became a Great Emperor, how many would truly follow him?

The movements of the human race were seen by the Ancient Races.

Previously, they were actually quite worried, fearing that the human race would unite as one and follow Yin Qi to oppose them.

Although the human race lacked strong experts, they had many Emperor Weapons.

If a race war truly broke out, even if the Ancient Races possessed several Great Saints, they estimated they would not gain any advantage and might even suffer heavy losses.

Moreover, "Ancient Races" was just a collective term, not a single race.

There were conflicts among them as well.

Facing a united human race, many Ancient Races would certainly choose to withdraw.

But before even a hint of war appeared, the major human powers had already chickened out themselves, with only the Jiang family and the Yaochi Sacred Land choosing to support Yin Qi, which undoubtedly fueled their arrogance.

Thus, the Ancient Races became even more united, vowing to kill Yin Qi and force the human race to submit, recreating the order of the Primordial Era.

Divine Silkworm Ridge.

The Divine Silkworm Princess asked: "How is it? What did your uncle say?"

The Holy Prince scratched his head and gritted his teeth: "I didn't see him. There was only a bald donkey acting as a messenger. Uncle said he has already entered the Buddhist gate, and the four elements are empty. The affairs of the human race and the affairs of the Ancient Races have nothing to do with him."

A look of disappointment flashed in the Divine Silkworm Princess's eyes; it was indeed the same as last time.

After leaving the Holy City last time, she had taken the Holy Prince and the little Divine Silkworm to the Western Desert, but they hadn't even seen the face of the Fighting Buddha.

No matter what she said, the other party simply refused to show himself.

She also secretly hated the Fighting Buddha's heartlessness, so she left in anger.

But after calming down, she couldn't help but miss him.

"Since that is the case, then we shall go."

The Divine Silkworm Princess said: "Yin Qi has a debt of gratitude to us; we cannot fail to repay it. With our support, I think the other races will also have some misgivings. If we can negotiate peace, that would naturally be best."

It took a full twenty-four days for Yin Qi to secretly set up the Source Heaven Ancient Array.

Afterward, he announced he was "coming out of seclusion" and received the righteous people who had rushed from all directions to follow him. At this time, the number had actually reached over thirty thousand, including not only ordinary cultivators but also young talents and famous experts.

This also moved Yin Qi quite a bit.

Although there were many selfish people in the human race, there was no lack of righteous people either.

Knowing full well that he was in danger of falling at the Myriad Races Assembly, these people still rushed over without hesitation.

To put it tragically, they had come to die with him.

Yin Qi valued these people extremely highly, because they would be the backbone and foundation of his future Heavenly Court.

It didn't matter if their aptitude was poor, and it didn't matter if their cultivation was low; the key was loyalty.

The next day.

The God King Yang Jian and the Yaochi Saintess came together.

The Yaochi Saintess was a beautiful middle-aged woman named Xiao Yue, a Saint from the era of the Queen Mother of the West, who had been sealed in divine source and was awakened by the Yaochi Saint Mother because of this human crisis.

From this, one could see how firm the Yaochi Sacred Land's attitude was regarding the Ancient Race issue.

For a foundation like Xiao Yue, she would generally not be awakened unless it was a life-or-death moment, let alone leave the divine source.

Yang Jian said: "Brother Yin, I have come on behalf of the Jiang family to stand with you. For this, I have also brought the Hengyu Furnace."

Xiao Yue also said: "I have also brought the Western Emperor Pagoda, representing the Yaochi Sacred Land in standing with you."

"Good!"

Yin Qi said solemnly: "From now on, your Jiang family and the Yaochi Sacred Land are my Yin Qi's firmest allies."

Yang Jian could come out of righteousness and also to repay a debt of gratitude.

Of course, he also knew about the matters concerning the Human Demon and others.

And the Yaochi Sacred Land was entirely out of righteousness, which was truly admirable.

Xiao Yue asked in a deep voice: "Yin Qi, what plans or arrangements do you have? Not to mention whether the Ancient Races have Great Saints, just the Saint Kings alone are likely numerous. If a Great Saint appears, we can only fight to the death."

With their cultivation, to deal with a Great Saint, they could only fully awaken the Emperor Weapons.

This required them to pay a huge price.

Yin Qi smiled slightly: "If I didn't have certainty, would I have made such bold claims? To tell you the truth, I have long had arrangements. When the time comes, a human Great Saint will appear, enough to deter the Ancient Races."

"Even if all the Great Saints of the Ancient Races arrive, we don't need to worry; we humans have the existence of a Quasi-Emperor."

"If we are in danger, he will certainly take action."

From the original work, it is known that Gu Tianshu and Gai Jiuyuan should have known each other long ago.

If Gai Jiuyuan appears, Gu Tianshu will certainly appear as well.

However, he could not say this, otherwise there would be no way to explain it.

"Great Saint, Quasi-Emperor!"

Xiao Yue's beautiful eyes widened, revealing a look of shock.

She had understood the current era; the Great Dao was hidden, and it was difficult for even Slashing Dao Kings to appear, yet there were still Great Saints and Quasi-Emperors walking about—this was simply a fantasy.

One must know that even in the era of the Queen Mother of the West, Great Saints and Quasi-Emperors were top-tier experts, and their numbers were extremely few.

Seeing Yin Qi and Yang Jian both smiling, her shocked heart calmed down a little.

Perhaps, this was Yin Qi's trump card.

Otherwise, Yin Qi's best choice would not be to fight the Ancient Races to the death, but to hide and deter them; that would be most beneficial to the human race, otherwise he would just be a brainless brute.

But a brainless brute could obviously not cultivate to the level of a Saint King.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yue also smiled beautifully: "In that case, I am relieved. There are still a few days left; I am prepared to arrange the venue. For this Myriad Races Assembly, our human race must not lose its etiquette."

Since the human race had a trump card, then naturally the etiquette must be in place to deter the Ancient Races. ===== CHAPTER 450 =====
