With the strengthening of exchanges between the two ethnic groups in various aspects, interactions between the lower and middle classes of the two ethnic groups have become closer.
Even more remarkably, some of the Witch Clan Warriors who resided on the outskirts of the Human Clan settlements, or the Human Clan and women responsible for exchanging goods and communicating with the Witch Clan, including many skilled and physically robust martial artists, developed feelings for each other during their long-term interactions.
The romance between Yan, a Witch Clan Warriors who resides in the Human Clan Heze Village, and Sang, Human Clan woman in the village who is skilled in weaving and has a resilient character, became an important turning point in the history of relations between the Human-Witches tribes.
"Sang, come back to the tribe with me!" Yan grasped Sang's hand, his eyes filled with eagerness. "I will report to the captain and the high priest!"
A blush rose on Sang's face, but her eyes remained firm. "Yan, this is my home."
I am one of the stewards chosen by my clan. Perhaps... perhaps our destiny has moved the will of the Ancestral Witch and the Holy Father?
"How about... how about we explain this to the elders on both sides together?"
Although their union initially encountered resistance from some conservatives within the organization, with the support of Panshi and a low-ranking priest from the Kuafu Tribe, and especially after mentioning Jiang Yun's relationship with the Ancestral Witch, it was quickly deemed insignificant by the upper echelons of both sides, and they allowed it to develop as it was.
Soon, an unprecedented little life was born.
This child possesses both the robust Bloodline and physique of the Witch Clan and the spirituality of the Human Clan.
The priest of the Witch Clan was overjoyed after the examination. "His Bloodline power is comparable to that of an ordinary minor witch!"
Moreover... he seems to be able to easily sense the forces of nature!
His potential... is immeasurable!
This is a gift from Father God!
When the news reached the Kuafu Tribe, they immediately reported the matter to the Ancestral Witch, including the Pangu Hall and the place of Reincarnation where Houtu was stationed.
Houtu Palace.
Houtu's true form sat Reincarnation Disk, her aura growing ever more profound and majestic.
Xuanming sat to the side, his aura becoming even colder and more powerful.
Houtu sensed the birth of the Witch-Human. This event had both advantages and disadvantages for the Witch Clan, but overall, the advantages outweighed the disadvantages.
Using the power of the Earthly Dao and her Bloodline, she projected herself and Xuanming's images into the Ancestral Witch Hall to participate in the discussion.
A Great Witch from the Kuafu Tribe respectfully reported what had happened at the border.
"... That Human-Witch Hybrids son, named 'Qi,' not only inherited Yan's rock-hard Bloodline, making him far stronger than other Human Clan children his age, but even... his spiritual senses are acute. Although he cannot yet use Divine Ability, he has a natural affinity for Water Element Power. Sang is skilled in the tribe for irrigation and weaving fishing nets, so Qi's affinity for Water Element Power may also be related to this." The Great Witch's voice carried a hint of excitement, "This proves that his soul... is indeed condensed!"
Ancestor Witch Dijiang, listened in silence, his eyes flickering uncertainly.
Zhujiuyin stroked the rattan staff in his hand and slowly spoke, "If Human Clan woman gives birth to a child with the Bloodline of the Witch Clan, the child will not only possess the power of the Witch Clan but also have a spiritual foundation, unlike our pure-blooded Witch Clan. If this method is feasible, wouldn't it solve the huge problem of our clan's slow population growth and dependence on the blood pool?"
The biggest problem for the Witch Clan is its small population and complete reliance on the Pangu Blood Pool to create witches, which almost completely limits their potential.
The Qiangliang Ancestral Witch, Qiangliang, murmured, "Moreover, those Human Clan seem to be naturally gifted with abundant spirituality! After mating, the children's potential is even better than expected!"
Shebishi said, "The key is that this move can deepen our relationship with the Western Teachings, and it also gives Jiang Yun an explanation."
We weren't involved in the Yin-Yang Fetal Membrane Plan initially, but now our relationship with the Human Clan has deepened.
Houtu, Xuanming, you are more familiar with Jiang Yun, what do you think?
Houtu and Xuanming exchanged a glance. In the Youming, they knew a great deal about the Six Paths Reincarnation. One of the Six Paths is the Dao of Humanity Path. In recent Reincarnation, the power of the Dao of Humanity has grown stronger with the development of the Human Clan. In particular, the Six Saints all have significant connections with the Human Clan, which is enough to prove that the Human Clan is not simple. Befriending the Human Clan would be more beneficial than harmful to the Witch Clan.
Houtu's eyes revealed gentleness. "Although the Human Clan was created by Nuwa, it also contains the Bloodline of Jiang Yun. Jiang Yun is the Holy Father of the Human Clan and values Human Clan highly. We have cooperated with him a lot in the Reincarnation. Now, befriending the Human Clan can deepen our connection."
Moreover, the union of Human-Witches can produce offspring with greater potential, which not only strengthens the continuation of the Witch Clan's Bloodline but also deepens the bond between the two clans, fulfilling a good deed made with Jiang Yun back then.
I believe we should go with the flow and even offer some encouragement.
The Land of Reincarnation can also open a special path of reincarnation for these 'Witch-Human'.
Xuanming nodded slightly.
Dijiang finally made the decision. "Alright! Let's make it a deal then. Issue the order that all tribes of my Witch Clan may strengthen their exchanges with the Human Clan!"
When a man and woman from two tribes are in love and they come together, no tribe may obstruct it; the priest may bless them!
However, it is essential to respect the wishes of both parties and not to force them!
The Human Clan was overjoyed. When Huang and Wa heard the news of Qi, they were so excited that tears streamed down their faces.
Lie exclaimed excitedly, "May the Holy Father bless us! May Heavenly Dao favor us! This half-blood son possesses such extraordinary talent!"
If this Bloodline can flourish within our race, the overall strength of our Human Clan will experience a leap forward!
The potential for fusion with the Bloodline of the Witch Clan is of paramount importance to the development and survival of the Human Clan race.
Thus, with the deliberate promotion of the high-ranking officials of both sides, the special and powerful Bloodline of "Witch-Human" began to emerge in large numbers in the area where the Human Clan and Witch Clan met.
Wedding celebrations became more common, and tall, strong figures of the Witch Clan could often be seen busily working in the Human Clan villages. Exquisite pottery and practical tools made by the Human Clan also began to appear in the Witch Clan tribes.
The two groups are more harmonious than ever before because of their Bloodline ties.
A new, symbiotic alliance is quietly taking shape.
In contrast to the harmony with the Witch Clan, the expansion of the Human Clan to the Southern Region sowed the seeds of great disaster.
Initially, the Human Clan and the Demon Clan race lived in peace.
On the one hand, because the Human Clan was created by the Empress Nuwa, although Demon Clan, they are still primates. Out of respect for the Saint, the Demon Clan mostly adopted a wait-and-see attitude or even had a certain degree of goodwill.
The Demon God Bi Fang once passed through a Human Clan settlement and chased away a harassing beast. He then sent a message to the tribe's leader. "Since you are a race created by the Empress Nuwa, you and my Demon Clan are naturally allies. Just live peacefully here and do not cross the border to cause trouble."
Some lesser demons even traded their furs for food with the Human Clan on the border.
However, the peace was shattered by a bloody accident.
On the edge of the hot Southern Region jungle, a medium-sized Human Race tribe called Hundred Herbs has recently migrated here and established a settlement.
During a hunt, the tribe's young hunters ventured too far into the forest and disturbed a ferocious Mutated Beasts, the Zhen, which had just given birth to cubs.
During the chase and fight, the group was scattered. A young hunter named Tu, in his panic, stumbled into the cave of a small Yu Xiao, who had recently Form Transformation and Dao Attainment was still shallow. Yu Xiao resembled a monkey and was good at climbing and jumping.
Driven by hunger, the Yu Xiao is anxiously trying to hunt enough meat to help its weakened mother recover.
Suddenly seeing a weak, lone creature exuding a strong aura of blood appear in its territory, the instinct to Slaughter instantly overwhelmed reason.
Under A Tu's horrified gaze, Yu Xiao howled and pounced, easily snapping A Tu's neck with the innate strength and speed of the Demon Clan race.
