"He's planning something," replied Ao Shen. "And it's something major, something that will take into account the entire world. Heavenly Dao has some hint of what it is, and it approves of his actions."

"That would explain why he was chosen as a complete Son of Era. But what roles does our demon race plays in his plan?"

"I don't know. But it seems to require harmony between races," continued Ao Shen.

"In that case, how do we treat the alliance?" asked the Golden Lion Chieftess. Ao Shen did not immediately answer, pondering about his race's future.

The time spent in the Martial Hegemony World has benefitted him immensely. Upon arrival, he had to learn to hide and become quite good at it. But eventually, his identity was revealed, and he was forced to run away.

While constantly running away and surviving, Ao Shen became more powerful, cunning, calm, cautious, analytical, and ruthless. These traits allowed him to survive along with the good faith of one Emperor Lineage that shielded him without asking for anything in return. He also received countless fortunate encounters.

"So far, the alliance appears to be favorable to us. However, you have to make sure to alleviate the resentment of some of our members."

Ao Shen knew many tribes would not accept humans' aid. After billions of years of suffering, many clan members want nothing but revenge; they want to dominate the Myriad Emperor World and make the other races suffer the same fate.

In his early years, Ao Shen felt the same as these people. But as he grew up and learned more about the world's truth, he understood how difficult this task was.

Only an Eternal Emperor on par with Empress Wu and the Absolute Beginning Emperor could achieve the goal of these demon races. However, there are other problems to consider. If he overthrew the human race as the protagonist of the Myriad Emperor World, the founders of the most powerful factions might intervene.

Ao Shen learned the true foundations of these sects are the people who have ascended and achieved higher realms in the upper dimension. These people would never allow the destruction of their factions or the enslavement of the human race.

Ao Shen became depressed after figuring out this truth. And a few hundred years ago, when he learned about the closure of the lower dimension, he thought his plan might work. However, his cautious nature made him analyze things thoroughly and realize he would suffer the be the one suffering consequences if he annihilated the human race.

These founders and previous Emperors would never allow him to survive in the upper dimension. And Ao Shen eliminated the possibility of hiding in the lower dimension since he wanted to continue his cultivation journey.

After mulling over the situation, Ao Shen realized that he needed to change his primary objective and not let hatred cloud his judgment. After becoming an Eternal Emperor, his goal should be to lead the demon race to prosperity and rival the other factions. He needed to take this rare opportunity of an upcoming era to ensure that the demon race dominated that era.

And after years of prosperity, the demon race can rejuvenate itself and become one of the most potent factions in this world.

"I'm worried about them, too," commented the Black Tiger Chief. Hatred ran deep in many tribe members, and they could affect this alliance.

"I will talk and explain the situation to them," said Ao Shen. "But if they cannot control themselves for the overall betterment of the demon race, we will eradicate them."

"Is this necessary?"

"I've already explained the entire situation to all of you. So, you should understand that hatred is detrimental to our future."

"We do understand. But you cannot expect many of us to suddenly forgive the humans."
