Mondstadt City.

The Spider Woman was reporting the situation on the snow mountain to Jiang Xiaofeng.

"The people from the other side of the snowy mountains seem to look down on the people of Mondstadt City."

"Because most of them evolved from Hilichurl, they have seen more humans and have little goodwill towards Mondstadt people."

"Those high-ranking humans from the snowy mountains, except for a priest named Uku, all acted arrogantly towards us. They said it was because they were resurrected by you that they felt special."

"..."

Jiang Xiaofeng listened to all of this in silence.

"Furthermore, that man named Faruch has been asking us for members of the Imunlaukr family, but Mondstadt doesn't even have such a family..."

"..."

Jiang Xiaofeng raised his hand to stop the Spider Woman from reporting.

"Just say it, who doesn't deserve to die?"

The Spider Woman paused, then spoke.

"Except for that Uku, who has a very good temper and basically acts as a peacemaker between our two sides, everyone else is very arrogant..."

Jiang Xiaofeng: "..."

No matter how hard he tried, he never imagined that it was actually the Uku that the Chuqiu King had transformed back into that was the most docile one, while the rest of the group...

Even the princess who died alongside the ancient Frostbearing Tree couldn't resist the allure of the Void.

Yes, the root of it all is the Void Eye that Jiang Xiaofeng distributed.

There is no statue erected by Jiang Xiaofeng in the snow mountain, so the people of the snow mountain have to travel Chisato to Mondstadt City to worship the King's statue if they want to obtain the Void Eye.

What they obtained were mostly inferior versions of the Void Eye, while some civilians in Mondstadt had already acquired complete Void Eye through the long process of teaming up to kill monsters at monster Focus points.

The people on the snowy mountain weren't fools, but they didn't understand why the Void Eye they obtained was different from the Vision the commoners of Mondstadt possessed.

Therefore, some people who are never satisfied begin to incite those around them to express their discontent.

At the same time, because the snow-capped mountains are vast and sparsely populated, usable land is even scarcer.

Faruch and his ilk all wanted to acquire more land.

Therefore, when negotiating with Mondstadt, Faruch took advantage of Jiang Xiaofeng's absence and assumed that Jiang Xiaofeng had also gone on an expedition. So she became aggressive towards the Spider Woman, using her influence to say that the snow mountain was very important to Jiang Xiaofeng.

Faruch's idea was completely wrong.

Jiang Xiaofeng's revival of the Snow Mountain Ancient Kingdom was merely a whim he made to test his current abilities.

At the same time, it was Jiang Xiaofeng's interest in the story of the snow mountain that led to the restoration of the entire ancient snow mountain kingdom.

But now...

I had planned to stay at the castle in the snow-capped mountains for a while when I had time, which is a pity.

Jiang Xiaofeng flashed and arrived at the altar Peak of Vindagnyr.

With a wave of his hand, Jiang Xiaofeng conjured a throne, Jiang Xiaofeng then slowly sat down on.

With another wave of his hand, Faruch, his daughter, and Uku, the three supreme rulers of the snow-capped mountains, appeared Peak of Vindagnyr.

"My lord the King!"

Faruch's eyes lit up when he saw Jiang Xiaofeng, and he immediately knelt down.

" The King Majesty, I beg the King to grant us some land in the Snow Mountain region!"

"After all, there's very little usable land in the snow-capped mountains!"

Jiang Xiaofeng looked at Faruch with amusement.

"Your Majesty the King?"

Faruch cautiously raised his head and looked at Jiang Xiaofeng.

"Go ahead and think about it; anything can happen in dreams."

Jiang Xiaofeng looked at Faruch calmly and spoke.

" The King Majesty, you..."

Faruch hesitated for a long time before he was about to speak when Jiang Xiaofeng interrupted him.

"I've said it before, you need to recognize your place and Mondstadt's."

"But you guys are really amazing."

Jiang Xiaofeng crossed his legs, tilted his body to the side, and looked at Faruch.

" The King Majesty! This! I am not..."

"You're saying you didn't do it, right?"

Jiang Xiaofeng spoke up.

"You're still saying that you just want the people of the snow mountain to live a better life, so you risked your lives to beg me for divine grace."

"You would also say that the people of your snow-capped mountains are willing to believe in the Void..."

"Ha, verbal reassurance can't compare to something concrete."

Faruch's expression was uncertain; he didn't know how to answer.

Jiang Xiaofeng shook his head.

"I wanted to learn about the story of the snow mountain, so I reversed time to a past era and resurrected you, the ones who experienced it."

"But you refuse to recognize your own place and still dare to challenge Mondstadt?"

"Since you say the people of the snow mountain are willing to believe in the Void, then come on over."

Upon hearing this, Faruch thought he had escaped a terrible fate.

But, the next moment.

"Ah!"

My face!

"What's going on?!"

My body is melting!

" Void God, save us!"

The bodies of those snow-capped mountain civilians who incited the common people to revolt were gradually summoned by the Void, and their souls, along with their bodies, became nourishment for the Void.

The remaining civilians, though gradually growing taller, began to hunch over, and white or blue hairs grew on their arms, necks, and faces.

"Oh my!"

"Kusa!"

Soon, groups of Hilichurl knelt on the ground and began to wail and cry out in despair.

However, the Void God no longer pays attention to them.

"Are you insatiable ingrates? Huh?"

Jiang Xiaofeng raised his hand and flipped him over, then pressed him down.

The structures on the snow-capped mountain gradually collapsed and weathered, quickly restoring the original appearance of the Dragonspine.

The only difference is that the dragon skeleton has disappeared here.

Durin is still asleep in the Void; hopefully, he'll grow up to be sensible.

"No, no, no, no, no! Your the King! The King Majesty! I was wrong!"

Faruch scrambled to Jiang Xiaofeng's feet and kowtowed desperately.

Jiang Xiaofeng gently blew a breath, and Faruch turned into dust and dissipated into the air.

"Your the King, all I want is to find my beloved!"

Faruch's daughter then moved, crawling on her knees to Jiang Xiaofeng 'Jiang Xiaofeng feet, trying to hug them.

Jiang Xiaofeng kicked out, and Faruch's daughter was sent flying.

"You're just... huh?"

"You're all like this, that's why you're like this, am I right?"

With a wave of his hand, Jiang Xiaofeng turned Faruch's daughter into ashes.

Finally, Uku knelt down in front of Jiang Xiaofeng.

"I have nothing to say, Your the King."

"Give me a quick death."

Jiang Xiaofeng looked at Uku and spoke calmly.

"You didn't do anything too wrong."

"But while the death penalty may be avoided, punishment is inevitable."

"You should stay in the snow-capped mountains and organize their history over the past few thousand years."

"The snow-capped mountain has now become the Dragonspine, no, the dragon's bones are gone, let's just call it the Snow Mountain Ruins."

As he spoke, Jiang Xiaofeng stood up and waved.

Peak of Vindagnyr slowly sank into the top of the snow-capped mountain, and the castle gradually collapsed.

The Skyfrost Nail reappeared atop the snow-capped mountain.

The Void Power once again stirred the Ley Line of the snow-capped mountains, connecting the lives of the Hilichurl to the Ley Line.

From that moment on, the ancient kingdom of the snow-capped mountains vanished forever.

From this day forward, the only living beings in the Snow Mountain Ruins, besides visiting adventurers and researchers, will perhaps be a recorder who stays here to atone for his sins...
