"So, doesn't that mean Little Sister has taken the Human Emperor's Human Dao destiny for herself?"
The several Ancestral Witches froze.
That was right. If Houtu really did take the Human Emperor's Human Dao destiny and replace him as the vessel of the Human Dao...
What about the Human Race???
"It's no big deal! From now on, we'll protect the Human Race. They can carry on as usual, and they won't have to worry about the demons treating them as food!" Zhurong said, his fiery temper showing as he grinned broadly.
"The Human Race might not agree."
"Then we'll give them all the rare treasures in the Wu Clan's treasury in exchange for that so-called Human Dao!"
"The Human Dao is the only Great Dao beneath the Great Dao that exists alongside the Heavenly Dao! Even the Dao Ancestor and the Sages have personally acknowledged that it cannot be changed. Forget the Wu Clan's treasury—even if we offered several Chaos supreme treasures, the Human Emperor wouldn't agree." Xuan Ming rolled her eyes at her brother. He was far too blunt.

Di Jiang nodded and said calmly, "Sister Xuan Ming is right. The Human Race of today can't be compared to the Human Race of old. A thousand years ago, who among us could have predicted that the Human Race would dare confront the Grand Pure Sage? Or that, right in front of Saint Nuwa, they'd beat that shabby bird Di Jun until he didn't dare talk back?"
"Uh..." The other Ancestral Witches fell silent.
The events of a thousand years ago
