Chapter 1540: One thousand one hundred nineteen Reject_2

It can be said that the prodigies of the Human Race alone could deplete these resources, not to mention, not long ago, the reincarnated deities of Jiejiao Sect into the Human Race, who also require resources.

If the resources of the Human Race were sufficient, Jiang Chen would have started arranging the reincarnations of the Great Ancient heroes earlier, and it would not have come to this day without any movement.

"If they could bring their own provisions, it wouldn’t be impossible."

Numerous thoughts swirled in Jiang Chen’s mind, and if it were up to him, he certainly would not wish to see the return of different clans to the Human Race.

But after all, he is the Human King and must consider issues from the perspective of the race, not solely according to his own desires.

From the perspective of the Human Race, the return of different clans has its pros and cons, but whether the pros outweigh the cons, or vice versa, depends on the attitude of the different clans.

For instance, if they return to the Human Race bringing their own provisions, not only refusing the resources offered by the Human Race but instead providing substantial resources to the Human Race.

Beyond that, they willingly serve as pioneers, expanding territories for the Human Race and plundering resources and Fate everywhere.

If the different clans can indeed achieve such extent, then their return to the Human Race is naturally a tremendous boon for the Human Race.

Conversely, if their return to the Human Race is solely to obtain the identity of the Human Race, then it is not a good thing for the Human Race.

"Different clans can return, but the conditions they propose are unacceptable; they need to show sincerity if they want a status comparable to the clans."

After a long silence, Jiang Xuan spoke.

He also dislikes the different clans, but considering the bigger picture, the Human Race now indeed needs the power and Fate of the different clans.

As long as the different clans are sincerely deciding to return to the Human Race, with the help of the different clans, the Human Race would be able to handle the upcoming major changes much more comfortably.

"As for the conditions!"

Jiang Chen’s gaze flickered, and he turned his attention back to the document in front of him.

The return of the different clans to the Human Race naturally comes with conditions. However, because they are aware of their own situation, the conditions they have set forth are not high, and the wording is very sincere.

In their letter, they admit to their sins and dare not obtain the same status as when they departed from the Human Race; they only hope the Human King would consider them as a common clan, and they would be completely satisfied.

Within the Human Race, the imperial families hold the highest honor, and speaking of imperial families, it’s the Jiang Family and Ji Family. However, in reality, there is only one, which is the Feng Clan, the descendants of the Human Ancestor.

Below the imperial family, there are the royal families, namely families that have produced Human Kings.

Below the royal families are the clans, and the original clans were branches of the imperial and royal families, but as the Human Race rose, more and more Innate Dao Sovereigns were born. Since then, any family that has produced a Taoist Master, becomes a clan.

The upper-class of the Human Race is essentially formed by clans, royal families, and imperial families. Or rather, only individuals from these three origins can be part of the upper echelons of the Human Race.

It appears that lineage is supreme, with no chance for the ordinary people to rise. However, the opposite is true; to some extent, all humans have traces of clan bloodline.

Thus, if ordinary people achieve success in cultivation, the clan bloodline within them will rise. At that time, they can join the respective clan according to the source of their bloodline, become a member of that clan, thereby entering the upper-class of the Human Race.

This is the reason why clans thrive incessantly, bonded by bloodline, and here, the bloodline refers not just to parent and child, but to all who share the same bloodline.

Of course, what is mentioned here pertains to the pure-blooded Human Race, and the situation is special for the different clans.

The existence of the different clans symbolizes the friendship between the Human Race and other races, hence the status of the different clans is somewhat artificially elevated. Outside the clans, royal families, and imperial families, they can be considered nobles, having their own governance yet merely following the commands of the Human Race.

Previously, the Ancestral Land prompted the return of the different clans, and one of the conditions set forth was to ensure that they could receive the same, or even higher, status than before.

But now, in the submission given to Jiang Chen by the different clans, not to mention reaching the previous criteria, they are already fully content with being treated as ordinary clans, showing utmost sincerity.

Lowering their conditions is also appropriate, after all, it’s not the Human Race begging them to return, but they are pleading with the Human Race to allow their return.

"Indeed, the conditions are a bit high."

"They are but a group of traitors, yet they fantasize about obtaining a status comparable to a clan upon returning to the Human Race. How ridiculous, who do they think they are?"

"If what they seek is the treatment of ordinary tribesmen, there might still be something to discuss, but as for clan status, there is nothing to talk about!"

"With such a light penalty for the crime of betraying the clan, how would the different people remaining in the clan feel? What would the clansmen think? Is this encouraging them to become traitors?"

"If they want to join the Human Race, fine, but their status can only be that of war slaves. If they want to become a clan, then it will depend on their performance."

"The Human Race is about to wage war on all the tribes, and the different lineage can serve as the vanguard. As long as they establish enough merit, not to mention the status of the clan, even their original status, I can grant them."

After not much hesitation, Jiang Chen made up his mind. The different lineage wants to return, fine, but they must show their value and fight for the Human Race.

Conversely, if they only want the name of the Human Race but are unwilling to give anything in return, it’s better to just destroy them.

"War slaves, isn’t that going a bit too far?"

Jiang Xuan thinks that Jiang Chen makes sense, the different people who are valuable deserve to return, but those who are not valuable, what use are they? They would only drag their feet.

However, in his view, the different lineage is still a local hegemon, they should at least be given the treatment of ordinary tribesmen. To directly make them war slaves like Jiang Chen did is somewhat humiliating.

War slaves are the servants of the Human Race, with no human rights, their only value is to become cannon fodder on the battlefield and to weaken the enemy’s strength for the Human Race.

Jiang Chen making the different lineage into war slaves, if their strength was weak, that would be one thing, but with their powerful strength, how could they agree?

"Not excessive at all, not in the slightest!"

"The harsher the punishment for traitors, the more it instills a sense of awe in others. Otherwise, if they want to leave, they leave, if they want to return, they return, what would the Human Race become?"

"What the Human Race needs now is unity. If sacrificing the different lineage could make the interior of the Human Race more unified, then their sacrifice is entirely worth it."

Jiang Chen’s attitude is very firm, thinking of the future plans, he knows that no matter what, he cannot accept the submission of the different lineage, and even needs to actively push the different lineage to the opposing side.

"Besides, does the different lineage still have a choice? From the moment they handed the surrender document to me, they had no way out."

"If they do not return to the Human Race, why would all the tribes let them go?"

Seeing Jiang Xuan still hesitating, Jiang Chen smiled and said.

Regarding this incident, Jiang Chen has never doubted the sincerity of the different lineage. Because, their sending the surrender document is the greatest sincerity.

Don’t just see this as a surrender document. In fact, when the different lineage handed it over to the Human Race, it’s equivalent to seriously offending all the tribes, stabbing them in the back.

This sincerity cannot be said to be small.

Why the surrender of the different lineage is a stab in the back to all the tribes, it is necessary to mention where the fate of the different lineage comes from.

Now the fate of the different lineage, all added up, is at least dozens of times more than when they left the Human Race.

Then the question comes, where did this part of fate come from? It can’t appear out of nowhere, nor is it possible to plunder from the Human Race.

The answer is, at least eighty percent of this extra fate comes from all the tribes.

The different lineage breaking away from the Human Race was all the result of incitement by all the tribes behind the scenes, and to achieve this goal, all the tribes naturally spent a lot, not hesitating to subsidize the fate of the different lineage from their own, allowing them to grow rapidly in a short time.

And the purpose of all the tribes doing this is to make the different lineage enemies of the Human Race. But now, the different lineage got their fate and developed, and they are preparing to return to the Human Race, how can they bear this?
