"Then arrange it quickly!"
"Good!"
The third elder, Ye She, said with a smile.
On the fourth day of the second month of the fortieth year of the Great Han Dynasty, three divine edicts were issued from the Immortal Gate of the Northern You Human Realm. At the same time, the Human Ancestor Yun Yi announced his abdication from the position of Human Ancestor and the selection of a Human Co-Lord for all human factions. Bloodline would not be considered, only strength!
Instantly, news about the re-unification of the Human Realm, the Great Yin Immortal Dynasty, and the Yun Clan Immortal Dynasty spread like wildfire, causing an uproar throughout the Northern You Human territory.
"Nonsense!"
"If you ask me, my Great Yin Immortal Dynasty is the only one capable of taking on the position of the next Human Sect Master. As for your Ye family, you prodigal sons have already squandered everything left by the Immortal Lord!"
In a tavern in an unknown city in Northern You, a man with a flushed face and reeking of alcohol was clamoring.
"Get down here! Great Yin Immortal Dynasty, you say? Pfft! The Xuanwu Battlefield hasn't even been decided yet. Your Great Yin Immortal Dynasty, the Human Realm, and the Xuanwu Hall, three major forces, still haven't repelled the combined forces of the White Tiger Pavilion and the Fallen Immortal Dynasty. With such pathetic performance, you dare to claim the position of Human Co-Lord? Aren't you afraid of making people shiver with cold!"
As he spoke, a man directly pulled down the red-faced man who was standing on a stool, reeking of alcohol.
"Hey, hey, what are you talking about?"
"If you ask me, the current human race only has four major forces: the Ye family of the Human Realm, the Yun family lineage of the Yun Clan Immortal Dynasty, the Da Yin lineage of the Great Yin Immortal Dynasty, and the recently risen Han family lineage of the Great Han Divine Dynasty that has swept across the Western territories!"
An old man, holding a wine gourd, smiled and said again, "Everyone, everyone, please listen to this old man's words. We can argue later!"
"You speak, I'll see what this old geezer can spit out!" The noisy beings all took their seats.
"Everyone!"
The old man stood up and took a sip of wine. "Looking across the Three Thousand Dao Provinces, the human race has many branches, and the bloodlines are extremely chaotic. If we talk about bloodlines, only the Yun Clan Immortal Dynasty, the Great Yin Immortal Dynasty, and the Ye family of the Human Realm are the orthodox lineages, all having inextricable blood ties with the Immortal Lord!"
"However, as you all have heard, there were three divine edicts issued from the Immortal Gate of the Human Realm, heading to the Great Yin Immortal Dynasty, the Yun Clan Immortal Dynasty, and the Great Han Divine Dynasty in the Western territories, respectively. Following this, the Ye family issued a decree. This time, the Human Co-Lord will be selected regardless of age or bloodline, with only the strong prevailing, be they old or new generations!"
"Look to the East. Yun Shan, the Immortal Emperor of the Yun Clan Immortal Dynasty, awakened the True Phoenix bloodline and, with her strength, controls the Immortal Dynasty's territory. Not long ago, in the Battle of Dongyun, the Grand Marshal of the Yun Clan Immortal Dynasty, Geng Yan, annihilated three million troops of the Azure Dragon Palace in one battle, pushing south and forcing the enemy to retreat for thousands of miles."
"It's likely that even as we speak, they have already reached the northern gate of the Azure Dragon Palace!"
"If we push it further, in my opinion, the Azure Dragon Palace will be destroyed soon. The rise of the Yun family lineage makes them the biggest contender this time. Are you, the Great Yin Immortal Dynasty, convinced?"
"Hmph!"
The beings from the Great Yin Immortal Dynasty immediately turned grim and dared not speak. The Xuanwu Battlefield had been a complete mess for them.
"Let's look further south. The Ye family is the orthodox lineage of the Immortal Lord. Even after the erosion of an era, the Ye family still occupies the Human Realm and currently possesses three Supreme Profound Venerate powerhouses!"
"This foundation is the most promising for this selection! Do you have any objections!"
The old man took a sip of wine and looked at the beings in the tavern, then spoke again, "Let's look further west. The Great Han Divine Dynasty rose not long ago, but it was able to overpower the Blackwater Immortal Dynasty. The Battle of Nanshui was a battle that made them famous. With this record, I dare say that the foundation of the Great Han Divine Dynasty has already surpassed that of the Great Yin Immortal Dynasty."
"You've rambled on and on, what exactly do you want to say?" a being asked impatiently.
"Heh heh, what I want to say is that the selection of the Human Co-Lord this time will likely still be in the hands of the Ye family. The Yun family is in resurgence, and the Great Han is rising, but their foundations are still thin!"
"Only the Ye family! Three Supreme Profound Venerate powerhouses can secure the destiny of the human race!"
At this point, the entire tavern fell silent. Indeed! The Ye family had three Supreme Profound Venerate powerhouses. Three Supreme Profound Venerates could suppress the four directions of the human race!
...
"Divine Emperor, the Human Ancestor's edict from the Human Realm!"
In the Hall of Heavenly Access of the Imperial Palace of Chang'an City, Great Han.
"Hmm?"
Yang Hao frowned. Did the Battle of Nanshui have such a quick effect? The Battle of Nanshui was the battle that officially propelled the Great Han Divine Dynasty into the ranks of powerful forces in the Three Thousand Dao Provinces. It was also this battle where Yang Hao announced the arrival of the Great Han.
"The Human Ancestor has abdicated and wishes to select a new generation of Human Co-Lord in one month, to unite the four forces of the human race to jointly resist the chaotic era and continue the legacy of humanity!"
These few dozen words, without any divine power emanating from them, were very ordinary, as if written by an ordinary being.
"With the Xuanwu Hall battlefield so chaotic and fiercely contested, they still have the mind to do these things. It seems they haven't invested significant strength in the Xuanwu Battlefield!"
Li Si frowned. The Great Yin Immortal Dynasty was indeed in decline, but the Ye family of the Human Realm possessed three Supreme Profound Venerate powerhouses. The Ye family's strength should not be weak, yet the Xuanwu Battlefield remained a stalemate.
"The Northern You's plans have long been underway. The Yun family lineage has joined our Great Han, and the Human Realm and the Great Yin Immortal Dynasty are already fat on our chopping block, waiting to be carved up. Divine Emperor, why don't we seize this opportunity to pacify the Northern You region!"
Changsun Wuji looked at the Human Ancestor's edict and said faintly.
"Lord Changsun is correct. The battles to eliminate the two major forces, the Azure Dragon Palace and the Blackwater Immortal Dynasty, are proceeding in an orderly fashion. In half a month, these two forces will be swept away. At that time, the prestige of our Great Han Divine Dynasty and the Yun family lineage will undoubtedly soar. We can then take advantage of this immense prestige to sweep away the main lineage of the Ye family and establish the orthodox lineage of our Han clan!"
Du Ruhui's eyes lit up, and he cupped his hands.
"Your subject seconds the motion. Once our Great Han obtains the position of Human Co-Lord, we can order the Yun family lineage to formally declare their allegiance to the Great Han. At that time, the Ye family and the Great Yin Immortal Dynasty will have to re-examine our Great Han Divine Dynasty. Those who surrender will live, and those who resist will die!"
Fang Xuanling cupped his hands and bowed.
"One month!"
Yang Hao looked at the planes of the Three Thousand Dao Provinces. According to his predictions, the Blackwater Immortal Dynasty and the Azure Dragon Palace would be swept away in half a month. By then, there would still be half a month before the grand ceremony for the Human Co-Lord. In half a month, many things could be accomplished.
The unification of Northern You, excluding the Central Province, could be pacified. Regardless of the eight great families of the Central Province or the full recovery of the Candle Dragon, he could lead his troops into the Central Province and sweep away the eight great families.

If the Immortal Lord could not kill them, he could. Thinking of this, Yang Hao glanced at the depiction of Li Yuanba hanging in the Hall of Heavenly Access.
What if an immortal descended to the mortal realm?
