Wasn't This Getting a Little Too Outrageous?
"The coffin-clad ancestor?"
During the journey, Gu De watched the live stream from the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, his brows furrowing slightly.
While it's possible that the changes in the Emperor Road were due to the gold coins, the repeated appearance of this notification now seems increasingly unreliable.
Intuitively, he felt it was a bit like a charade.
He was now somewhat curious about what other tricks this so-called Emperor Road could possibly have up its sleeve.
However, he didn't have much to say about the so-called "bringing the ancestor along".
After all, his own strength was enough to make him a patriarch even among the four top forces.
Of course, another reason is that, in reality, he doesn't have any ancestor to guide him.
After all, in this world, even if there are those whose strength and realm are above one's own, the possibility is probably not very high.
Li Clan
Upon learning that he was to be taken along by the ancestor, Li Baimei raised his hand and touched the top of his head.
A possibility suddenly flashed through his mind.
"Could it be that those younger generation members have some connection to this Emperor Road?"
Why bring the ancestor along for no reason?
As soon as this thought came to mind, Li Baimei's brows furrowed slightly.
If that's the case, then isn't the Emperor Road also a trap?
He dared not speak of anything else, but judging from the previous achievements of the Human Emperor Hall, these people were still quite easy to fool.
It's entirely possible that this so-called Emperor Road is also a carefully planned scheme.
As for who it was? The only one he could think of right now was that self-proclaimed Human Emperor, Gu De.
As for what he intends to do, that remains to be seen.
After thinking for a moment, Li Baimei got up and left, then said to the Human Dao who had been summoned:
"The patriarch will not be involved in this matter. If you have any other ideas, go elsewhere."
Among the Dragon Race, Zhong Ming stared wide-eyed at the line of small characters concerning the ancestor.
"This... this... could this be Master's doing?"
Zhong Ming pondered this, a magnificent scene unfolded before his eyes.
The coffins of the ancestors were neatly arranged on the ground, stretching as far as the eye could see, like a forest.
In a tavern somewhere, Chu Ping'an sat Jingjing.
After learning about the matter of the Emperor Road, he gently tapped the table with one hand, murmuring softly.
"The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. We just experienced one wave of disappointment, and now they seem to be trying to give me more hope."
"Don't you think so, System?"
His words clearly carried a sarcastic or mocking tone.
He had high hopes for the recent war between Human Race and Beast Race.
He even had doubts at times, though he couldn't even admit to having doubts, because the evidence was practically slapped against his face.
The explosives dropped by the Vermilion Bird Race were clearly designed to resemble the missiles of the previous life.
The only person who could come up with such an idea is a time traveler.
Previously, time travelers were always the main characters.
However, this time, he didn't see the main character.
The system did not provide any further notifications.
He himself didn't believe the result.
Especially the last few people who all claimed to be Li Baimei, but in the end, none of them were Li Baimei.
This is very strange.
However, logically speaking, there is indeed a possibility that it is not the case.
After all, since Li Baimei has a system, his strength must be considerable. How could he be so easily subdued by these Beast Race, and then be scrambled to sit on top of a group of Human Race juniors and played with at will?
Adding to the previous incident at the Human Emperor Hall, he could almost guarantee that this was also part of the plan, or rather, an act.
In that case, it is indeed possible.
Those Human Race who reached the summit were not the main characters.
Add to that a saying he strongly agreed with in his previous life: Wild beasts always roam alone, while cattle and sheep travel in herds.
If they were truly the main characters, each one would look like one at first glance, but they always appear in groups.
In that case, it's unlikely.
Of course, that's just theory.
Those mushroom eggs, and the way the Vermilion Bird Race releases them, are truly iconic.
In any case, there will definitely be another time traveler from Blue Star.
After his thoughts paused, Chu Ping'an continued:
"System, why aren't you saying anything? Don't tell me you're guilty. I was just joking."
As soon as the words were spoken, the system announced:
"Host, the world is vast, but the probability is always limited. We've already digested so many protagonists, so the number we can find now will definitely be relatively smaller."
"The system can't guarantee anything about this, but we still suggest you try your luck; you might just encounter it."
Chu Ping'an snorted and said:
"You'd better be right."
After a pause, he changed the subject and asked:
"Has Lin Xie still not had any new opportunities?"
As soon as the words were spoken, the system responded:
"No."
Chu Ping'an's brow twitched.
"No way? He's the main character! The news about the Emperor Road has already been released, and there's still no update. Could the Emperor Road be fake?"
Shaking his head, Chu Ping'an stood up.
"Forget it, I'll go talk to him and try to reason with him."
In the blink of an eye, several days had passed since that line of small print appeared.
In this Land of the Four Directions, most people still choose to wait here for the opening and for new prompts to appear.
However, no new notifications have appeared so far.
On the contrary, a single sentence from the ancestor has already stirred up quite a ripple in various regions.
As Myriad Treasures Pavilion stated, the coffin-clad ancestor has now become a hot commodity.
Although it wasn't explained very clearly, everyone understands the principle of planting trees for shade.
The bigger the tree, the more shade it provides.
The more they snatched the coffin-clad ancestor, the better.
In an instant, countless Human Race forces that had once had a glorious past but later declined suffered.
The Rogue Cultivator can defend against it, but the powerful dare not.
A powerful figure simply stood at the door and said one thing:
Let us meet your ancestors, or let you meet your ancestors.
Many families that had fallen on hard times were now being taken care of by two or three stronger forces.
Seeing their once glorious ancestor now reduced to a coveted resource, fought over and plundered, filled them with a sense of powerlessness and despair that weighed on them like a mountain, making it hard to breathe.
This situation is merely one of the methods employed by various forces across the vast world to rack their brains for the sake of their ancestor.
There were even more methods, a veritable explosion of ideas, which opened the eyes of countless forces with true ancestors, and brought them both harm and disaster.
Just as the Human Race was enthusiastically preparing for the meeting between the Ancestor and the Emperor Road...
On the other side, within the Emperor Road.
Lu Changzhi stretched and habitually patted the "dust" off his clothes.
"Let's stop here. This has certainly been a huge project."
Looking around at the now completely transformed Emperor Road Space, Lu Changzhi nodded in satisfaction.
"Next, we just wait for the players to get into position."
Having said that, he withdrew his External Avatar with a thought, and his figure instantly disappeared into the Emperor Road space.
Shortly after it disappeared, about half a cup of tea's time later, two illusory figures appeared in the room.
The two carefully examined the surroundings, then looked at each other, and one of them Human Dao:
"Isn't this a bit too ridiculous?"
The other person's lips twitched.
That's what I was going to say.
The person who spoke first shook his head and said:
"Let's report to the Ancestor again. I think it's a bit unsuitable."
