Mount Tai abdicated and the Holy Emperor returned to the throne.
Xuanyuan Clan officially took over Kongtong Seal and became the new generation Co-Lord of Human Race. It was based in the ruins of the Youxiong Tribe and changed its name to "Xuanyuan Hill".
When he first came to power, Xuanyuan was not in a hurry to use troops against the covetous Jiuli Tribe. Instead, he first focused on internal integration and system creation.
He knew very well that if he wanted to conquer the outside world, he must first stabilize the inside and unite people's hearts.
He imitated Fuxi and Shennong, established official positions and divided ministers: Feng Hou was the prime minister, in charge of government affairs; Li Mu was the general, in charge of the military; Chang Xian, Da Hong and others were responsible for the duties of education, law, craftsmanship, sacrifice, etc. He vigorously promoted the Bagua text transmitted by Fuxi, and ordered Cangjie and others to standardize and simplify it, making it more conducive to recording and dissemination, and igniting the fire of civilization more widely.
In view of the fragmentation and inconsistent laws that still exist among tribes, Xuanyuan began to implement the prototype of "cars on the same track, books on the same text, and travels on the same line".
He formulated unified weights and measures, standardized vehicle wheelbases, and promoted trade and transportation among tribes; he promulgated preliminary laws to restrain the behavior of tribes and emphasized unity and order; he advocated rules and regulations to strengthen the sense of identity and cohesion within Human Race.
These measures have undoubtedly touched the interests of many established tribal nobles, and have also changed the long-standing living habits of some tribes. It is not without internal resistance and noise.
However, Xuanyuan relied on his growing prestige, clever political skills, and the assistance of his capable ministers to carry out the reform step by step.
Under the organization of Xuanyuan, the body of the Youxiong Tribe alliance (which cannot be called a dynasty at this time) has gradually become more efficient and unified, and its destiny has become more condensed.
On the other hand, after the Jiuli Tribe and Chi You heard the news about Shennong's Zen position Xuanyuan, although they were "livid" according to the plan, declared their dissatisfaction, and started to mobilize troops, they did not immediately raise troops in large numbers.
While he integrated the forces of the eighty-one brothers under his command and those tribes that were conquered or took the initiative to join him, he built weapons and armor, and practiced battle formations; at the same time, he watched the various actions of Xuanyuan with cold eyes, and at the same time, he also watched the "lobbyists" who quietly sneaked into the land of the Nine Li Tribe like sharks that smelled fishy smell.
The first to arrive were the disciples of Western Teachings. They talked about how Western Profound Methods could help Chi You gather military morale and how it could use the power of "annihilation" to weaken the enemy's fighting spirit. They also made a veiled promise that if Chi You was willing to accept Western Teachings's righteousness, the two saints would secretly protect him and grant him magic weapons and supernatural powers.
Immediately afterwards, Chan Teachings's doorman also arrived.
Under the banner of "submitting to nature and responding to people", they expressed their disdain for the "messy" people under Xuanyuan's command, and praised the "nobility" and courage of the Nine Li Tribe's tribe (especially those of Witch Race's blood). Wu, implying that Primordial Heavenly Venerate appreciates a hero like Chi You who has "upright roots and a bright future". If Chan Teachings is willing to respect Chan Teachings as orthodox, Jade Pure Sage will naturally not sit back and watch his destiny fall by the wayside.
These lobbyists tried their best to provoke Chi You, describing Xuanyuan's reforms as "violating the ancestral system" and "arbitrary", describing Xuanyuan himself as "hypocritical" and "excluding dissidents", constantly inciting Chi You's "anger" and ambition.
Chi You sat high on it, listening to these words, but he sneered in his heart.
He seems rough and arrogant, but in fact he has a clear mind.
Although he didn't fully understand the details of Two Sages of the West and Primordial Heavenly Venerate's calculations, he had a good guess.
He just wants to borrow his knife to deal with Xuanyuan and suppress the forces close to Qingxuan Ancestral Witch and Nuwa Holy Mother, so that they can profit from it and share the profit with Human Race Destiny.
'Hmph, you want to use me Chi You as a gunner? We have to see if you have that ability!'
Chi You thought to himself, but his face remained calm and even occasionally showed signs of excitement or indignation, making those lobbyists feel that their lobbying was effective.
He allowed the disciples of these sects to move around in the Jiuli Tribe. To a certain extent, he was also using their power to further integrate and inspire the complex tribes under his command.
After all, having the "sage support" sign is quite effective in stabilizing military morale and attracting some swinging forces.
Time passed slowly in this atmosphere that seemed like a tense confrontation but was actually an undercurrent.
The reforms of Xuanyuan gradually showed results, and Youxiong Alliance became stronger and stronger; Jiuli Tribe also became more powerful with the integration and external "support" of Chi You.
On this day, Chi You was inspecting a batch of newly made bronze armors. He saw sharp spears, gleaming cold light, thick armor, and comprehensive protection.
The men under his command are all highly motivated and full of fighting spirit.
At this time, a disciple of Western Teachings and a disciple of Chan Teachings came together to offer their advice again.
"Chief Chi You, now that Xuanyuan's foundation is gradually becoming more stable, if we continue to allow it to develop, I fear it will be even more difficult to succeed in the future! This is a good opportunity to raise troops!"
"Yes, the leader has strong soldiers and horses, and the right time and place... With the blessing of the saint, it is time to march eastward and conquer the world in one fell swoop! We are willing to be the leader's vanguard, connect all parties, and participate in this grand event!"
Chi You stroked the cold Tiger Soul Blade, with an imperceptible glimmer in his eyes.
