Let This Emperor Be Your Human Emperor
Are you kidding us?
Someone nearby glanced at the speaker and said:
"Surely not? You'd go to all that trouble just to fool us?"
Quite a few people in the vicinity also came over to look.
The man smiled and said:
"Whether I'm lying or not, I really can't say for sure, but given the current situation, do you really think those four top powers would give up the benefits?"
"Or rather, the Human Emperor's legacy was actually seized by the four major powers long ago."
These next words immediately shocked many people, and then their hearts sank.
To be honest, they actually find the latter explanation a bit more credible.
Throughout history, whenever something valuable comes into play, haven't the powerful always managed to squeeze every last drop of profit out of it?
Will someone really leave some for them?
"That actually seems quite possible," someone else chimed in.
"All things considered, the four top powers didn't suffer too many losses this time. Surely they have the resources to deal with us?"
"But don't forget, this was personally arranged by the Human Emperor," the Human Dao.
"The four major powers are indeed strong, but surely they shouldn't be able to break through the Human Emperor's arrangements, right?"
"Unless..."
"Unless what?" someone followed up with a question.
The man smiled again and said:
"Unless they can work together. But judging from their recent battle against the Beast Race, do you think that's possible?"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately objected.
"Why is that impossible?"
"Perhaps all of this was orchestrated from the very beginning by one of the four top powers, or rather, by a joint effort."
"After all, our strength is inferior to theirs."
The weak always find the methods of the strong to be extraordinary.
"And we have no way of knowing whether it's true or false."
"Then how do we explain the Desolate Ancient Emperor Stele from before?" someone asked.
The man raised his hand and said:
There are only two possibilities.
"Or maybe they did it on purpose to increase the credibility of the story and make everyone believe it more. After all, if Human Race were really ranked first, it would be obviously fake."
"Another possibility is that they didn't initially expect the Beast Race to be so strong."
"So, according to you, what's the point of going through all this trouble to build this Human Emperor Hall?"
"The Beast Race," Human Dao.
"They definitely want to use the Beast Race as cultivation resources."
"War still needs cannon fodder."
"How could these forces be willing to put themselves in danger?"
"The previous exchange didn't result in any significant losses; only Li Baimei sustained minor injuries."
"Look at them, aren't they all running faster than each other?"
"If it were truly for the sake of obtaining the benefits from the Human Emperor Hall, would they really give it up so easily?"
"..."
Similar discussions have occurred not only in one place, but also in various places.
This battle between the Human Race and Beast Race was a huge loss for the humans, or rather, they didn't gain any substantial benefits.
The fact that none of the four top powers have come has inevitably led to various speculations.
In an instant, suspicion and doubt spread like thick ink in water.
Just then, news arrived.
"Do you remember those people who were planting grass, cooking, and digging holes above Li Baimei?" someone shouted excitedly.
Many people immediately turned to look at him, some out of curiosity, others speechless.
This only happened recently, how could they possibly forget it?
Then the man, with an expression that said, "You wouldn't believe it," said:
"I just received news that those teenagers have already returned to the Li Clan!"
"What?"
Upon hearing this, many people immediately spoke up.
"Really?"
How is that possible?
Some people gently shook their heads and said:
"It's a rumor. Even if it were true, it wouldn't have gotten out."
In response to the crowd's reaction, the speaker Earthly Dao with great interest:
"You probably won't believe it, and I won't believe it either. But it's clear that someone witnessed it with their own eyes."
Having said that, he raised his hand and waved it, and an image immediately appeared on it.
The image clearly shows a perspective of looking up at the sky.
Indeed, a group of people could be seen heading in the direction of the Li Clan's residence.
Although the overall size is a bit smaller, judging from the general situation, it is indeed the same group of people as before.
The moment this scene appeared, someone immediately spoke up:
"Fake."
"If they were from the Li Clan, they could have just used other means to go back. Why make such a big fuss?"
"They're not ordinary mortals; they don't know how to use teleportation arrays or travel through the void."
"Isn't this a bit too much of a fuss?"
"Exactly." Many people nodded in agreement.
"That does seem a bit too fake."
Another person said:
"Judging from this, it seems like some other force is deliberately framing us!"
"After all, when it comes to behavior like this, the only thing we can think of is smearing others."
"Otherwise, there would be no need to resort to such methods to return."
"It's obviously fake, as fake as it gets."
"Whose could it be? The Beast Race? Or some other force?"
"I think it's the Beast Race," Human Dao.
"They're just trying to cause infighting among us. If we Human Race fight amongst ourselves and can't unite, the Beast Race will benefit the most."
"Furthermore, if other forces on our Human Race were to do this, either these people are imposters; or if they are real, it would likely mean that some force on our Human Race is secretly colluding with the Beast Race, otherwise the Beast Race wouldn't be cooperating with them so fully."
Some speculated comprehensively, while others were more direct and immediately spoke up:
"There's no need to think too much; it must be the Great Qian Ancient Kingdom."
"The Great Qian Ancient Kingdom and the Li Clan have always been at odds, and now that Li Baimei has lost his testicles, they're probably even more resentful."
Some people, listening to the crowd's discussion, shook their heads and said:
"Can't you people use your brains?"
"Even the lowest-level powers probably wouldn't resort to such despicable tactics; it's obviously fake."
"Is it possible that the Li Clan deliberately did this to make everyone overthink?"
"How many people do you think are true now?"
"Don't forget how much fun those guys had over Li Baimei's head, planting grass and digging holes."
"How strong was Li Baimei's defense? Everyone should remember, right? He could even withstand several attacks from the Beast Race."
"So the scalp is that fragile?"
There were differing opinions on this matter, and the discussion became quite heated.
Each explanation seems to have a plausible explanation.
Even the matter of Qian Guiyi losing his "testicles" was now being questioned as whether it was a deliberate performance, a staged act of self-inflicted suffering.
Above the Human Emperor Hall, a figure looked down at the crowd and gently shook his head.
There's a reason why ordinary people can't reach a high level of refinement.
With such divided thoughts, how can they possibly win? Win my ass!
Most Beast Race are brainless, but being brainless isn't necessarily a bad thing; at least they're obedient.
Instead, it doesn't feel like it's falling apart, as it does right now.
Ultimately, we still need the right leader.
The figure spoke softly, raising a hand to straighten their clothes and appearance.
"Let me, your Emperor, be your Human Emperor and lead you to success."
