The leaders of Human Race tribes from all regions gathered at the Ancestral Land once more. Flags snapped in the wind, and the sacrificial fires burned without cease.
Shennong arrived early and, under Fuxi's guidance, met with the many tribal leaders.
The Human Race was not entirely without objections to the system of the "rotation of the Three Sovereigns."
Yet the opposing voices were, in the end, few.
Fuxi possessed immense strength, but he had never used his power to bully the weak. Instead, he had led the Human Race to grow stronger step by step. Since taking office, every policy he had introduced had benefited the Human Race.
With such prestige, whatever he said naturally went.
Opposition? Not only would it accomplish nothing, but it could also easily displease the Common Lord. It simply was not worth it.
Some leaders, meanwhile, believed in him from the bottom of their hearts.
During Fuxi's tenure, he had intimidated the Ten Thousand Clans and become a solid backing for the Human Race's expansion.
Some had even privately suggested that there was no need to establish any Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors at all. Fuxi should simply rule the Human Race forever.
Fuxi, whose goal was to become the Lord of the Human Dao, naturally needed such unwavering supporters.
Yet he knew clearly that the time was not right.
The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were both the great course of the Heavenly Dao and an arrangement decided by Saints. They could not be shaken by human effort.
Of course, not everyone in the Human Race harbored the same thoughts.
A very small number of tribal leaders secretly calculated another possibility.
The Heavenly Sovereign and Earth Emperor had already emerged, and there would be the Human Emperor and Five Emperors afterward.
