Huang Xi did not hold much hope for the Demon Race:
"The Wu-Demon of today are much like the Three Clans of old.
That old Zhu Long allowed the Dragon Clan to attach itself to the Demon Race because he likely wanted to borrow the Demon Race's luck for some other scheme.
Those loaches of the Dragon Clan are the best at breeding. Their numbers far exceed those of the Phoenix Race, so naturally, they have far more room to maneuver.
The Demon Race... is not the best choice for our Phoenix Race."
Jin Ning frowned in thought and probed, "We have offended the Wu Clan, and the Demon Race is unsuitable as well. Do you mean for us to seek refuge with the Mystic Gate?"
Huang Xi's eyes flickered as firelight flowed within them. "The Mystic Gate is the lineage founded by Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
They do not contend for supremacy and stand apart from the conflicts of the Primordial Wilderness.
With Saints behind them, they occupy a peaceful land that neither the Wu Clan nor Demon Race dares to offend lightly.
If our Phoenix Race takes shelter there, though we would be under another's roof, we could at least cling to life for now.
As for Undying Volcano, once the Wu Clan prospers, they will naturally establish a Tribe here. They can also suppress it and keep the volcano from erupting for the time being.
Even if our Phoenix Race leaves temporarily, the Primordial Wilderness will not immediately fall into chaos.
Now that the Immeasurable Kalpa has arrived, if the Wu Clan wins, there will be no cause for concern. If the Wu Clan is defeated and destroyed, then our Phoenix Race can return to Undying Volcano and resume the duty of suppression, atoning for the sins accumulated
