The war between all races was completely over, and it was not only the empire and the remaining people of all races that breathed a sigh of relief. Don’t forget that there is another camp in the world. However, while breathing a sigh of relief, the sea clan was also deeply worried.

The way of heaven has indeed matured and it also recognizes the existence of human beings, which means that the way of heaven recognizes that the creatures not created by heaven have truly lived space. Therefore, even the sea tribe has obtained the qualification to continue to survive, or even continue to evolve, but the question is, should they continue to evolve?

As we all know, the friction between the sea tribe and the empire has existed since ancient times.

But on the one hand, because the sea tribe wants to enter the inland, it must cross the Changshan Mountains, and after crossing Chachang Mountains, it must cross the East Wilderness Continent with sparse water sources. Therefore, the empire rarely really pays attention to the defense of the sea tribes. Half of the reason for setting up the Changshan Army was to prevent the smuggling of foreign races.

To be honest, although the East China Sea tribe has been suppressed by the empire and knows that it is impossible for it to break through the blockade of the Changshan Army, it has never given up on the idea of ​​going ashore. Of course, this is the idea of ​​the nobles, and other sea tribes that have not evolved completely do not have that high IQ.

In fact, it is precisely because of the existence of these low bloodlines that the ambitions of the sea clan have been unable to expand. The nobles are also very distressed to control these low bloodlines, and they may even be backfired if they are not careful. The nobles who stand in different acne and want to take different measures against these low bloodlines have also been divided into several schools and have been fighting secretly within.

Such a complex situation has led to the fact that the sea tribe has never been able to implement the plan to go ashore, and it is even more necessary to send the ion, the only accidental variant, to the empire to protect it.

But now, all facts are proving that the way of heaven has opened up the channel of evolution. From the end of the war between the ten thousand races to now, in less than a year, many new evolutions have appeared in the lower bloodlines of the sea race, which represents the beginning of the large-scale evolution of the entire race.

There is no doubt that when reproduction reaches three or four generations, the entire sea clan will enter an era of national evolutionists. The lower bloodline will be completely eliminated, and all sea clans will have enough wisdom, sufficient strength, and even gain the opportunity to control the high-level authority of the water system laws.

So the question is, if this is the case, can the sea clan successfully get ashore?

Since the evolutionary boom began to this day, this issue has always been a key point of debate among the sea nobles. Many nobles expressed their views, and even the queen could not make the final decision, so they could only allow the five nobles to argue endlessly.

The sea tribe is a matriarchal society, and females have sufficient status among the sea tribe. Although it is proved in terms of combat effectiveness that females of the sea tribe also generally have a baseline that is weaker than males, at least so far, the empress system is still very strong. No matter which aristocrat is, it cannot overturn the empress inheritance system.

Under the presidency of the Queen, the fifteenth meeting was held in this way.

"I still think that since we already have the opportunity to evolve, why not try to seize part of the land from the empire? Besides, the empire has just ended the war and must be seriously injured and will definitely not be willing to fight us on a large scale. This is simply the arrangement of the way of heaven. We want to fight against humanity! If we don't seize the opportunity, will we have to live in the sea for the rest of our lives?"

A sea nobleman said.

According to the simple division of the sea nobles, it is actually distinguished based on the sea areas controlled by the nobles. The nobles in the five directions of the east, west, north, and middle are in a row. The representative of the noble who advocated firing at the empire was the nobles in the east and nearest to the depths of the East Sea.

The living environment of the Eastern aristocrats can be said to be the harshest among the entire sea clan. The farthest distance from the coastline, the disordered laws in the depths of the ocean have the greatest impact on them. Not to mention that there are ubiquitous marine beasts who are surfing in the deep sea, which are all existences that threaten their lives.

Therefore, the Eastern nobles have always been deadly tough guys who insist on attacking the empire. They want to occupy the land so that they can completely get rid of the harsh living environment in the deep sea. Especially now that they have seen the dawn of evolution, the Eastern nobles naturally want to go further to the land and completely get rid of this damn sea!

But the Western nobles who had faced the Changshan Army head-on for a long time said: "You are so light-hearted. Is it so easy to attack the empire? First of all, the empire is not easy to deal with. Even if we have just fought a large-scale battle, the empire's strength is still not something we can deal with. You have also seen the result of the confrontation between the ancient races and the empire. There are only two thousand left in the ten thousand races. Do you think we can have the same strength? And even if the empire is seriously injured, it will not easily watch us seize control of the land! Don't forget that the reason why the ancient races fought desperately with the empire is not just for survival, otherwise why would the empire take all of them in their hands? The empire's control over the land is absolutely! Any race that wants to invade the land will be hit hard by the empire without reason!"

The southern aristocrats lived near the southern coast, so they naturally had some understanding of the combat effectiveness of the South China Sea Fleet and said: "Indeed, the combat effectiveness of the empire is not something we can handle. And let alone the nonsense of the way of heaven to arrange for us to compete with humans, what would happen to the last race that helped heaven to deal with humans is not obvious to all? The corpses on the sea have not yet rotted, so are we going to repeat the same mistakes?"

The representative of the Eastern nobles said disdainfully: "Coward! We just want to occupy a small piece of land. Why should the empire fight? According to me, the empire should be tolerant of us at present. We can try our best to win some power within an acceptable range. I didn't say that we must fight with the empire head-on now, but it should be possible to occupy a small piece of land within the scope that the empire can compromise? You also said that our strength is not enough to fight with the empire. Of course, the empire also knows this. Will it be too sensitive?"

At this time, the representative of the northern nobles nodded: "I think so too, especially from the north to this point, there is a large area of ​​land that is not actually under the control of the Changshan Army. Although it is not very optimistic now, with the stability of the heavenly way, the situation near the extreme north will gradually improve. Moreover, there is no obstacle from Changshan there. Once the law is stable, it will form a very suitable place for survival. We can occupy this place before it returns to normal, and the Empire may not necessarily oppose it. When it becomes normal, the Empire will probably not have the same face if it wants to repent."

The Oriental nobles immediately supported: "I also think this is the reason. As long as there is a place, we can develop slowly. And according to the current speed, our evolution will definitely take three to four generations. If we want to continue to evolve upward, it will take more time. This period of time just happened to be the easing period of the empire on this land, and we can also obtain more land evolution directions. Otherwise, we will always live in the sea and will only evolve in the direction of the ocean! It is useless at all!"

Originally, the representatives of the central aristocracy did not intend to express their opinions. The nobles from all directions were just two to two. Before the basic victory or defeat was decided, the central aristocracy who supported the queen was actually not suitable to say anything clear. However, the eastern aristocracy made the representatives of the central aristocracy angry.

"Are you saying that the evolutionary direction of Your Highness Ion is wrong?" asked the representative of the central nobles.

The Oriental nobles couldn't help but retreated, but immediately recovered, stood up and said, "Yes, you're right, I just think so. Your Highness Iron has not shown enough power talent now, and obviously he does not have combat ability. Races without combat ability are destined to become vassals of other races! Such an evolutionary direction is not what we want at all! What's more, when His Highness Iron was born, we had already unified our views, believing that this was an accidental accident, or even not under the control of the Heavenly Dao, it was an evolutionary direction that should not exist! Do we see a little hope and go to the dark side of the road?"

The representative of the central aristocrat held a harpoon in his hand, glanced at the other aristocrats, and asked in a deep voice: "So, do you other aristocrats think so too? To completely abandon the evolutionary direction of His Highness Iron?"

The other nobles looked at each other, although they did not agree, they did not object and became silent.

The mood of the representatives of the central aristocrats was immediately not wonderful. Depending on the situation, although the nobles in all directions had differences on whether to attack the empire, they still reached the same view of overturning the direction of ion evolution. Such a situation can be said to be the most severe situation faced by the East China Sea tribe in history.

Don’t look at them that they only deny one evolutionary direction, but you should know that ions are the first sea clan to begin the second stage of evolution, pointing out a clear path. Evolution represents the future of the sea clan, especially now that the way of heaven has been released.

Leading the direction of evolution means leading the future of the entire sea clan, and they will become the absolute leader of the sea clan in the next few hundred years. And Ions happen to be descendants of the Queen's lineage. Now these nobles oppose Ions, which is equivalent to secretly opposing the Queen's rule. It seems that they are already planning to take power independently.

Of course, it is not that these nobles from all directions must cooperate behind their backs. First of all, because the living environment of the Eastern and Northern nobles is even worse, they almost do not hide their covetousness of land, and they also hope to use force and tricks to seek control of the land. But obviously, for Western and Southern nobles who have seen the powerful combat power of the empire and have been fighting against the empire for a long time, they do not want to fight head-on with the empire.

There is no obvious link of interests in all directions, and the only relationship is to control the authority of the new generation. It seems that under the trend of evolution, it is not only the empire and the sea tribe that changes relations with each other, but also the internal controls of the empire, and the situation is already so serious.

Faced with the faint coercion of the nobles from all directions, the queen did not show enough disgust. When the representative of the central aristocrats felt that they could no longer make up their minds and looked back at the queen, she just nodded slightly, indicating that she had known their ideas and turned around and left the imperial court.

The nobles from all directions looked different. The nobles in the central areas looked at them, couldn't help but snorted coldly, and left the imperial court.

In fact, the central aristocracy and the royal family do not belong to the same branch. According to the records within the sea clan, the emergence of the central aristocracy was actually derived from the succession of the sea clan royal family. Just as the three thousand families are destined to have branches become peripherals every time, the central aristocracy originated from this process.

However, this relationship makes the relationship between the central aristocracy and the royal family closer. Because the blood of the royal family is always the purest, even the part that is eliminated in succession is the purest part of the evolutionary bloodline. Because of this relationship, the central aristocracy can always be replenished by fresh bloodlines and keep the bloodline pure, so that fools will break away from the royal family.

As for the other nobles in the four directions, because there was no such relationship, the royal bloodline would not enter their control even if it flowed out, so they were very dissatisfied with the royal family and the central nobles. In the past, if the entire sea clan wanted to survive in the way of heaven, they had to rely on the evolutionary bloodline of the royal family.

After all, the royal family is the only blood branch that has certainly appeared in the second stage of evolution, which further consolidated the status of the royal family. In the past, the truth of the Heavenly Dao was that humans and all races controlled the continent, and there was no room for them to intervene, so there was no sea clan thinking of decentralization.

The only idea of ​​the sea clan at that time was to live better in the ocean, and to gain absolute strength and better living conditions in the ocean. Therefore, ions determine the absolute status of the royal family. If you want to embark on the road of evolution in the future, you must follow closely under the leadership of the royal family.

But now it’s different! The battle between all races has been completed, the way of heaven has matured, the road of evolution has been completely relaxed, it has nothing to do with blood. All sea races have the right to choose the direction of evolution. Whether to go all the way in the ocean or move to land, this has become the key to the direction of evolution, and it is imminent.

It is estimated that when the entire sea clan is out of the wilderness and wisdom is born, they will embark on the second path of evolution. If they are still in the sea, they will probably die in the sea for the rest of their lives. Is it possible not to fight for it at this time?

This is the origin of the attitude of the racial racial today, and the central aristocrats are also very troubled.

To be honest, the central aristocracy had thought of being separated from the royal family, but obviously this idea was not revealed. First of all, too many members of the central aristocracy were originally from the royal family and had a sufficient sense of belonging to the royal family. Secondly, if they were separated, the nobles from all directions would not really accept them, and they might even dig holes for them.

In this case, it is better to continue to follow the leadership of the royal family. At least there is an absolutely reliable ally in this way, and the royal family does have enough evolutionary control. Especially the relationship between Iron and An Xiaoyu is quite good. You should know that An Xiaoyu is comparable to the way of heaven.

(At present, few existences outside the core of the empire know about Yu Shou Ji Tian and An Xiaoyu's re-cultivation.)

Therefore, the central aristocrats made the most rational choice.

After the meeting, the central nobles immediately found the queen: "Your Majesty, the nobles in all directions have coveted the rights of the royal family. Have we taken certain actions against them? The evolutionary trend has emerged. They are right. If they do not take the initiative now, they will definitely be passive in the future. It is nothing more than three or four generations. The reproduction speed of lower bloodlines is very fast. In about ten years, it is estimated that the sea tribes will be completely replaced. At that time, we will definitely face the choice of evolutionary direction. If we do not take the initiative now, we will inevitably be held hostage by the nobles in all directions and even lose the right to rule."

The queen sat on her coral chair, looking at the nervous representative of the central aristocrat below, and couldn't help but shake her head, as if she was a little dissatisfied. The central aristocrat was depressed. Did she say it wrong? Isn't this the time to take the initiative? Or has the queen already seen through the direction of the future?

Thinking of this, it couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty, do you think you called Your Highness Iron back? After all, Your Highness is the second-generation evolver, and Your Highness is a friend of Yu Zun. I think even if you come back now, the nobles in all directions will not dare to do anything..."

The queen waved her hand and said, "I have sent someone to do this, but it is not to bring back the ions, but to seek help."

The central nobles were shocked: "Your Majesty, are you planning to use the help of the empire?"

The empress said for granted: "The empires have a saying, "The upper hand is to attack the plan, then attack the diplomatic forces, then attack the troops, and then attack the cities. What the nobles in all directions are now doing are just two methods that the empire despised the most, sending troops to land, attacking the empire, and occupying the land? They still do not have enough understanding of the power of the empire. As a qualified leader, they are still far from it. What's wrong with the power of the empire? You just said that the focus now is to take the initiative and protect the right to rule. Now, who is the one who has the most initiative? Who has the most dominance? Of course, it is the empire!

When we don’t seek help from the empire, we want to invade the interests of the empire under the rule of the empire. This time, they are the stupidest place! Since we can’t resist, why not seek help from the empire? With the ionic relationship, the royal family and the empire have always maintained a good relationship. In order to stabilize the dominance of the East China Sea border, the empire may not have kept us in the sea for the rest of our lives. Isn’t the solution that the empire can think of at that time better than the one we can think of now? Or do they really think they can be much smarter than humans? Don’t forget, we are just the first evolutionists.”

Although that's the case, when the people sent by the Empire arrived in the East China Sea, the Empress and the Central Noble were obviously a little unbelievable. It was just because the Empire did not send any masters, and even a soldier was not brought over. All the people returned were Ions, and those who they sent to the Empire.

"..." Lianzi looked at the queen of the sea clan and was still a little resistant to the strange creatures. Although the feeling in her blood told her that the queen in front of her was her relative, she still didn't know what to say after all, so she could only shout seriously: "Your Majesty."

The queen nodded. Of course, she clearly felt the alienation of ions, but it had already been prepared. She knew that ions might not necessarily have a sense of belonging to the sea clan, so she did not have any special reaction. The royal family had already prepared a welcoming ceremony and prepared food on land to entertain ions, and then brought ions into the East China Sea. At this time, all the sea clans realized that the royal family had already had some contact with the empire.

The spies of the nobles in all directions immediately passed the news to their respective territories. After hearing this news, the nobles in all directions were secretly surprised. If the royal family really got the support of the empire, then they, the nobles who had already shown their rebellious intentions, would never have a chance to stand out!

No, you can't sit still and wait for death! You must stop their cooperation!

Of course, no nobles felt that the royal family's actions were betrayal of the sea tribe. In the face of absolute interests, there was no betrayal or betrayal. What's more, the royal family was the open leader of the sea tribe. They just sought help from the empire rather than surrender to the empire, and there were ions in the middle as a bond.

No matter how stupid it is, the nobles from all directions cannot attack the royal family under the name of eliminating traitors, especially when the royal family is already connected with the empire.

In fact, any of the nobles in all directions had thought of doing the same thing as the royal family, asking for help from the empire and taking the absolute initiative. Now everyone knows that the empire is the absolute overlord. Although they are still lucky, they still have some wisdom after all.

But the problem is that they have no connection with the empire and have no channels for cooperation at all. Moreover, whether they have friction with the empire or chase ions before, they are all things they do. Thinking about it, they know that the empire will not cooperate with them like this, so they can only give up.

And now, the worst happens, they must act quickly!

The Queen and the Central Nobles of course knew the actions of the nobles from all directions. These spies have been in the royal territory for a day or two. How could the Queen not notice it? It was just that there was no investigation. When the water was clear, there was no fish. Many news needs to be transmitted through these spies!

They just went from the East China Sea coast to the palace, but what surprised them was that they thought they needed to send the sea clan to enter the ocean with ions, but they did not expect that the ions' control over the laws of the water system was pure, and there was no discomfort after entering the ocean, and they were like fish in water.

This situation seems very strange to them. After all, Yoko has never shown any talent for law before, nor has the talent for cultivation. The only special thing is that her soul seems to be stronger and her soul power is stronger than ordinary creatures, so she is very good at it in the field of virtual reality.

Looking at the men following Iron, the queen showed an inquiring look.

A sea tribe came to the queen and whispered a few words. Even the noble chiefs of the central nobles did not hear what they were saying. However, after hearing the words of the sea tribe, the queen's eyes could not help but show a little glow. She had previously swept away the suspicion of the lineup sent by the empire, and she was very happy.

The noble chief of the central nobles couldn't help but extend and moved slightly, looking at the calm Iron.

Ion has been graduating for a year, and it was not until she graduated at the age of 22 that Ion seems to have begun to grow and develop, from the time that the little beans grew to nearly 1.76 meters, which is a little taller than the fish bean. Moreover, due to the characteristics of the sea clan, her body looks very tall and slender, with soft curves, like a mermaid, very beautiful.

Such a figure, paired with light blue and sapphire-like skin, has a unique flavor, especially those eyes, which are particularly shining. In the weak sunlight at the bottom of the sea, it actually shines slightly with silver light, and even the long blue hair seems to be full of stars.

Such a scene made the noble chief of the central nobles stunned for a moment. It could not have imagined that the little guy who looked a little strange and inconspicuous at the time had grown to this point. Judging from his appearance alone, he was already outstanding enough, but he didn't know how capable he was.

As a result, after arriving at the palace, what I said still shocked the queen and the noble chief.

"The best choice for the sea tribe at present is to accept the reorganization of the empire, just like the ancient races, to become a member of the empire. Of course, given that the sea tribe did not have absolute conflicts with the empire before, the nature of the race can be maintained without being broken and diluted. The empire can also provide a place to provide an environment suitable for the evolution of the sea tribe, so that the sea tribe can evolve and then consider the subsequent things."

The noble chief of the central nobles looked at Iron as if he had seen a ghost, and then looked at the masters he had known before, the ones who had just returned from the empire with Iron. But those people were also bitter and didn't know what to say.

The growth of the little girl Ion is not just a change in appearance! With the development of her body, Ion's mind also began to grow. Coupled with An Xiaoyu's relationship and the deliberate cultivation of the empire, and after experiencing the marginal situation of the Second Battle of Ten Thousand Races, Ion has become an excellent young woman.

Moreover, what made the queen and the noble chief helpless was that the tone of talking to them now was not the statement of fighting for the interests of the same clan, but it was obviously just unilaterally conveying the meaning of the empire. But it was normal to think about it. Irons had been wandering in the empire since childhood, raised by humans, and then protected by humans. Growing up in the empire, witnessing the power of the empire with their own eyes, and being friends with Yuzun, what is the sea clan?

What's more, from an evolutionary perspective, ions are actually no longer a sea race, but another race.

Obviously, the Empire means that letting the Empire come to convey their opinions is actually the final choice for the royal family of the Sea Clan. Of course, this choice is not necessarily bad, and it is even better than the royal family that they wanted to fight for before.

Without breaking up the races and maintaining the size of the races, the empire provides an environment suitable for their evolution, which is of course the foundation. If a race wants to gain a foothold, it must have the capital to survive. The empire will definitely provide them with specific work and may even build cities for them.

After all, if you want to fully accept a race, you must be completely assimilated. The method used to treat the surviving tribe empires of the ancient race is to dilute bloodlines, while the only way to treat the sea race that has not yet evolved is cultural assimilation and interest suppression.

Cultural assimilation is easy to understand. It means that after the sea tribe migrated into the empire, the cultural foundation of the empire was imported during the evolution of the sea tribe. The sea tribe itself does not have enough cultural heritage, so it will definitely accept the perfect imperial culture. With a cultural foundation, it will inevitably have a sense of national identity and become a member of the empire.

The suppression of interests is even simpler. The empire will provide them with many basic conditions for survival. The living environment is just the most basic thing, and they cannot survive on just one piece of land. At that time, they need to seek various help from the empire, including the experience of survival on the ground, the construction of some living facilities, the provision of daily necessities, including some commercial foundations, transportation foundations, medical foundations, services, etc., all need the empire to guide them. Like the ancient race, they must pay other things, such as specialties and labor in exchange for some resources, and slowly form a balanced fixed pattern.

With such a foundation, the sea tribe must integrate into the empire in evolution to survive and complete evolution. And the evolution completed on this basis will inevitably be integrated into the interest system of the entire empire and will never be able to escape.

Although it is helpless, for the sea tribe, this is the best choice. Whether it is to continue to live in the East China Sea or to be so stupid that it will fight against the empire, the end will be terrible.

Even if the sea tribes can evolve in the ocean, there are more dangers in the ocean, and the empire has begun to develop oceans and will definitely occupy this place in the future. Moreover, the evolution of race represents the improvement of wisdom, and the improvement of wisdom represents the destined need for survival. Can the simple marine living environment bring enough survival resources to the evolved sea tribes? It is not necessarily true?

So the queen nodded and said, "We are required to accept it. The specific cooperation projects can be discussed. As long as the empire treats us honestly, we will definitely become the people of the empire. However, there are still some opposition voices within the sea clan at present, and we do not want the sea clan to be recruited by the empire..."
To be continued...
