Not only that, there are also two Western Saints.
The two Western Saints place such importance on Merit and Destiny that the Phoenix Clan Ancestor does not believe those two saints would give up on the interests of the Human Clan.
Additionally, the Witch Clan supports the Witchman Clan Tribe, backed by two Saints of the Netherworld.
More importantly, Demon Ancestor Luo Hou’s schemes in the Primordial world have already affected the Human Clan Tribe supported by the Phoenix Clan, even impacting the Phoenix Clan itself.
Although there are no longer Human Clan Tribes practicing the Demon Path in the Primordial world, she doesn’t understand why Demon Ancestor Luo Hou would intervene in this matter.
The result of this is that the Phoenix Clan Ancestor feels deeply uneasy, even strangely panicked. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by novel★fire.net
Furthermore, there is the Human Clan Tribe with the richest heritage, the Human Clan Ancestral Land.
Could the birthplace of the Human Race’s Lord Emperor Fu Xi and Earth Emperor Shennong so easily be replaced by other Human Clan Tribes?
Apart from these saints’ interests in the Human Clan Tribes, there are forces like the Human Clan Tribe near Longevity Mountain of Zhen Yuanzi and the Rakshasa Tribe of Blood Sea Ming River Ancestor.
As for other Human Clan Tribes supported by various racial powers, without even a Quasi-Saint backer, they are not worth her attention.
While considering the various forces within the Primordial world, the Phoenix Clan Ancestor turns her thoughts to the current Human Clan Tribe supported by the Phoenix Clan.
The Phoenix Clan indeed has the strength to help the Human Clan Tribe vie for the Human Clan’s Heavenly Destiny, but it might require the Phoenix Clan to go all out, even requiring her own intervention.
Such a significant cost would mean tirelessly supporting the Human Clan Tribe, making sacrifices for the Human Race’s Lord, which is unpredictable for the Phoenix Clan.
For the Phoenix Clan, is it worth it?
Moreover, considering the forces she enumerated, the Phoenix Clan has a small chance of supporting a Human Race’s Lord, with Saints present, the odds of failure are high.
In this situation, should the entire race strive for one Human Clan’s Heavenly Destiny, one Human Race’s Lord?
Has the survival secured by the Primordial Phoenix for the Phoenix Clan, after countless years of recuperation, truly all to be spent on the Human Clan’s Heavenly Destiny?
In an instant, the Phoenix Clan Ancestor never felt her mind so clear.
"Ling Guang, I understand now, the Phoenix Clan’s hope to claim the title of Human Race’s Lord is slim; I will cease our support of the Human Clan Tribe and sever ties with them."
"In the current Primordial landscape, our clan should follow the will of the Primordial Phoenix, guard the Undying Volcano, ensure the survival of the clan, and accumulate our strength."
Seeing the surprised expression on Ling Guang’s face, the Phoenix Clan Ancestor said with a somewhat bitter expression, "What a pity for the Human Clan Tribe we have supported, that’s the Human Clan Tribe we have backed ever since the Human Clan prospered."
However, she then seemed to release herself from this burden, and looking at Ling Guang, she smiled, "Even without the Human Clan’s Merit and Destiny, just relying on our Phoenix Clan’s dominance over the Undying Volcano and you overseeing the Heavenly Pillar, the Merit and Destiny are sufficient for our Phoenix Clan’s survival in the Primordial world."
Although hearing the Phoenix Clan Ancestor’s words, Ling Guang still noticed an unwillingness in her eyes.
Counting age, Ling Guang is merely a junior in front of the Phoenix Clan Ancestor, while the Phoenix Clan Ancestor was tirelessly working, she was focused on cultivation.
After some contemplation, she finally looked at the Phoenix Clan Ancestor and said, "Ancestor, our clan might not need to completely abandon support for the Human Clan Tribe, nor completely sever ties with them."
Noticing the Phoenix Clan Ancestor’s puzzled look, Ling Guang continued without pause, "If our clan has no interest in competing for the Human Clan’s Heavenly Destiny, we could choose to join a Human Clan Tribe."
"With the strength of our Phoenix Clan, even joining the forces of a Saint, we should be able to enjoy part of the Human Clan’s Merit and Destiny."
"Although this portion of the Human Clan’s Destiny and Merit may not be as ample as what our Phoenix Clan could have enjoyed alone, it wouldn’t be entirely severed."
"Besides, there are creatures within the Human Clan carrying the Phoenix Clan bloodline; severing the connection between our clan and the Human Clan wouldn’t be so easy."
The Phoenix Clan Ancestor, listening to Vermilion Bird Ling Guang’s words, fell into deep thought.
After a moment, she looked at Ling Guang again and said, "If so, wouldn’t our Phoenix Clan still be caught up in the battle for the Human Clan’s Heavenly Destiny? How is it different from our Phoenix Clan supporting a Human Clan Tribe on its own?"
Ling Guang, hearing these words, looked seriously at the Phoenix Clan Ancestor and said gravely, "Therefore, our Phoenix Clan has only one chance to choose, which is to choose the tribe most likely to become the Human Race’s Lord."
"If we choose incorrectly, Ancestor, you can choose the right moment to lead the Phoenix Clan out, completely severing ties with the Human Clan to prevent us from suffering great losses."
"Perhaps after the third Human Race’s Lord is born, it wouldn’t be impossible for us to renew our connections with the Human Clan."
Another chance to choose?
The Phoenix Clan Ancestor pondered in her heart.
She remained hesitant, having not made a final decision.
One option is to sever the current ties between the Phoenix Clan and the Human Clan Tribes, losing Destiny and Merit; another is gaining another chance, potentially continuing Destiny and Merit, but risking losses for the Phoenix Clan.
Seeing this, Ling Guang spoke again, "If Ancestor cannot make a decision temporarily, you could first return to the Undying Volcano, observe the situation within the Primordial world, and decide accordingly."
Hearing this, the Phoenix Clan Ancestor nodded slightly; indeed, this matter cannot be decided hastily, it even requires gathering the members of the Phoenix Clan to make a collective decision.
