Ascending Mount Kunxu

"Is the date confirmed for tomorrow?"

Fang Weiyan stood in an imperial garden in the palace and looked up at the moon in the sky.

Even though it's not Earth, the moon overhead looks almost identical.

As the Dragon King had previously stated, the time is tomorrow.

Fang Weiyan specially invited the Dragon King over again, wanting to confirm it once more.

Upon hearing this, the Dragon King immediately nodded, "It will be tomorrow, there's no mistake."

Upon hearing this, Fang Weiyan took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled.

Time was running out, and Fang Weiyan was starting to get nervous.

"Thank you for going to the trouble of making this trip, Dragon King."

Having confirmed the time was tomorrow, Fang Weiyan turned to look at the Dragon King, then nodded slightly to him, expressing a hint of goodwill.

Upon hearing this, the Dragon King waved his hand, his expression turning somewhat strange.

Previously, he helped Fang Weiyan simply because Fang Weiyan saved his child, but now the situation is somewhat different.

As the Dragon King of the Wu River, he relied on the Jiangcheng.

One can clearly sense the current situation in Pingjiang City, and from this, one can also clearly sense the current situation in the Jiang Kingdom.

The Jiang Kingdom is now rapidly recovering its national strength.

He had a premonition that the Jiang Kingdom, under Fang Weiyan's control, would surpass the Jiang Kingdom of the past.

Once the Jiang Kingdom's national strength reaches that level, he will have to show some respect to Fang Weiyan.

Not to mention, Fang Weiyan now has his sights set on the throne of the Human Sovereign.

Once Fang Weiyan becomes the Human Sovereign, he will have to be even more respectful towards Fang Weiyan.

Otherwise, it would be much easier for the other side to kill him.

Fortunately, they had a pretty good relationship, and since the other party had saved his child's life before, it was unlikely that they would harm him.

That's why the Dragon King made a special trip again, which can be seen as an attempt to solidify their relationship.

"It's not troublesome, it just takes a little longer to walk."

The Dragon King shook his head and then said something.

"My benefactor, the candy..."

No sooner had the Dragon King finished speaking than Wu Ruichu tugged at Fang Weiyan's sleeve, his mouth watering.

Upon hearing this, Fang Weiyan smiled and asked a maid to go into the room to fetch a bag of candy, which she then handed to Wu Ruichu.

Wu Ruichu a bite, and his eyes narrowed slightly at the sweetness.

Seeing this, Yunxi narrowed her eyes slightly and glanced at the candy in Wu Ruichu.

Having confirmed the time would be tomorrow, Fang Weiyan inquired about the specific details from the Dragon King.

He then went to the room himself to check the various offerings that needed to be brought the next day.

After confirming everything was correct, Fang Weiyan returned to his palace to get some rest in preparation for tomorrow's trip up the mountain.

Just as Fang Weiyan returned to his palace and several maids brought hot water to Yunxi Fang Weiyan walked in.

After Yunxi entered, she gently waved her hand, dismissing the maids standing to the side.

Fang Weiyan had just sat down by the bed, waiting for the maid to come and take off his shoes and wash his feet.

The next moment, Yunxi, dressed in palace attire, came to Fang Weiyan's side and personally removed his shoes and socks, preparing to serve him as he washed his feet.

Fang Weiyan was taken aback when he saw that the person who came was Yunxi, and then quickly said, "Why don't we just let the palace maids handle this?"

Yunxi is a princess, Fang Weiyan never imagined that a princess would serve him.

Upon hearing this, Yunxi gently shook her head, "From now on, my lord will also be my husband, and serving him is my duty."

Yunxi spoke very obediently, but Fang Weiyan lowered his head slightly and looked at Yunxi kneeling in front of him, carefully washing his feet.

This feeling made Fang Weiyan feel somewhat strange.

Previously, Fang Weiyan felt he was already quite fortunate to have been served so well by the palace maids.

Now that Yunxi was serving him, Fang Weiyan felt a little smug.

Yunxi gently soothed Fang Weiyan's feet, then asked, "My lord, what was that thing you gave Wu Ruichu before? I've never seen it before."

Yunxi's voice was very calm, making it impossible to discern the meaning behind her words.

Fang Weiyan didn't think much of what he said.

He answered immediately, "Oh, it's just some candy. It tastes a bit sweet. It's available in the palace. Didn't Yunxi take a closer look before?"

Fang Weiyan had stored quite a lot of things in the palace, and Yunxi could freely enter and exit the storage warehouse.

There was also an element of asking Yunxi to help keep an eye on things.

Yunxi was taken aback by these words. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that there were indeed such things in the warehouse.

She hadn't paid much attention to it before.

After all, at that time, my main thought was that the things in those warehouses would be used for purposes that would benefit the country and its people.

Since these things all have these uses, Yunxi naturally wouldn't touch the things in the warehouse.

"I see. I thought it was specially for the child."

Yunxi carefully washed Fang Weiyan's feet, and then the expression on her face relaxed slightly.

Upon hearing this, Fang Weiyan sensed something was amiss. He looked down at Yunxi carefully and then suddenly realized what was happening.

Yes, it seems that before that, I only gave Yunxi a book, and haven't given her anything since.

Yunxi is probably not very happy right now.

Although he had never been in a relationship before, Fang Weiyan still had some theoretical knowledge of this.

Thinking of this, Fang Weiyan immediately stood up.

Fang Weiyan's feet were still in the basin of water when Fang Weiyan suddenly stood up, startling Yunxi.

"My lord, what is this...?"

"Oh, no need to wash up. Let me take you to get some things."

Fang Weiyan pulled Yunxi up and then hastily put on his shoes.

After thinking for a moment, he took Yunxi's hand and washed his hands in another basin. After drying them, he led Yunxi toward the warehouse.

A moment later, the two arrived at the warehouse.

Here, take this.

Fang Weiyan has actually converted this warehouse into a large supermarket.

It has all kinds of goods, you could say.

Fang Weiyan led Yunxi directly to the snack section, took down the potato chips, tore open the packaging, and handed a chip to Yunxi's mouth.

Yunxi watched Fang Weiyan personally fed her the food, her lips even touching Fang Weiyan's palm, and her ears immediately turned red.

Fang Weiyan wasn't thinking about that at the moment; instead, he looked at Yunxi with great anticipation, "Come on, try it and see how it tastes."

Upon hearing this, Yunxi suppressed a hint of shyness and opened her mouth to eat the potato chip.

The next moment, a crisp sound rang out, carrying a flavor she had never tasted before.

Fang Weiyan held the potato chips, looking at Yunxi with a hint of anticipation, "How is it? Is it delicious?"

Yunxi ate the potato chips in a few bites, her eyes then lit up.

She had never imagined that there would be such delicious food in this warehouse.

"Come on, try this one too."

Fang Weiyan spoke, he took out another bag of spicy strips.

Putting everything else aside, spicy strips are something that many girls like to eat.

Yunxi is, after all, just a kid in his teens. Fang Weiyan figured she would like him too.

Upon hearing this, Yunxi ate a bite of spicy strip at Fang Weiyan's insistence.

At first, she didn't feel much, but after she chewed it a little, she immediately set her sights on the spicy strip in Fang Weiyan's hand.

She truly hadn't expected this thing to taste so good.

"What is this? How can it taste so good?"

Yunxi stared at the spicy strips in Fang Weiyan's hand, then glanced at the shelf next to her.

I didn't know anything about the things in here before, so I never had any intention of doing anything about it.

But now, having tried both, the taste was unexpectedly delicious.

This made Yunxi immediately realize that the food here was probably much tastier than she had imagined.

If that's the case, she'll be able to enjoy delicious food forever.

"These are some local specialties I brought with me. Feel free to eat more if you like."

Seeing Yunxi's incredulous expression, Fang Weiyan couldn't help but smile and said something to her.

He also showed the other person the various snacks behind him.

"Did you bring all of these things here for me?"

Yunxi turned to look at Fang Weiyan, her eyes sparkling.

Fang Weiyan nodded naturally upon hearing this, "I brought this for you anyway, thinking you could choose whatever you wanted to eat. I just didn't expect you to leave it here untouched."

"It's also my fault; I didn't explain it to you clearly before."

Upon hearing this, Yunxi's heart was filled with sweet joy.

Fang Weiyan still cared about her a lot, and didn't focus all his attention on the Jiang Kingdom after inheriting the throne.

Although it would be a good thing for her if Fang Weiyan were wholeheartedly devoted to the Jiang Kingdom, she still hoped that Fang Weiyan could also care about her.

"Take whatever you want to eat here. If we run out, just let me know and I'll get more."

Fang Weiyan introduced the items on the snack shelf next to him to Yunxi.

There are dozens of bags of each kind of snack, enough for Yunxi to eat for a long time.

Hearing this, Yunxi nodded happily from the side.

Seeing how happy the other person was, Fang Weiyan couldn't help but smile, then yawned and walked towards the palace.

We're going up Mount Kunxu tomorrow, so I should go to bed early tonight to conserve my energy.

With this in mind, Fang Weiyan returned to his palace and went to sleep early.

The next day.

Before dawn, Fang Weiyan had already opened his eyes.

The palace maids had been waiting for a long time. When they saw Fang Weiyan get up, they quickly brought him hot water at a suitable temperature and began to help Fang Weiyan wash up.

The toiletries we use were all brought from the other side of the world.

After all, Fang Weiyan was used to using things from Earth, so he brought them all with him.

Aside from Fang Weiyan's own share, the palace maids and guards also received quite a lot.

Fang Weiyan mainly wanted them to keep things clean.

With the help of palace maids, Fang Weiyan quickly finished washing up, then put on his clothes and went to the altar.

The proclamation is ready.

Next, we just wait for the first ray of sunlight to appear, then we can burn the books.

Fang Weiyan waited anxiously, while various items needed for going to Mount Kunxu were already prepared.

The Dragon King was already waiting nearby, a mysterious expression on his face.

Yunxi was still eating a bag of snacks, and she also had a White Rabbit candy she Wu Ruichu the night before.

Her little mouth kept moving; it looked like she had eaten quite a few.

Seeing this, Fang Weiyan wanted to remind the other person not to eat too much, or they would get cavities or something.

But the words were on the tip of his tongue, and Fang Weiyan swallowed them back.

Yunxi has already become Yin God, how could she still have cavities...?

As everyone waited anxiously, a ray of sunlight finally shone on Fang Weiyan from afar.

Upon seeing this, Fang Weiyan's expression immediately hardened. He then personally burned the proclamation and threw it into the large cauldron in front of him.

The next moment, a wisp of green smoke rose straight into the sky from the cauldron.

"Will they ascend to heaven?"

In the the Unseen, a voice seemed to whisper in Fang Weiyan's ear.

The others around didn't hear these sounds and were still watching Fang Weiyan nervously.

Fang Weiyan took a deep breath, his eyes becoming incredibly determined at that moment.

All the previous efforts were for today, "Ascend!"

Fang Weiyan replied with unwavering determination.

The next moment, Fang Weiyan felt his body lighten slightly, and then he flew towards the sky.

However, when Fang Weiyan looked down, he saw that his physical body was still in the same place.

Looking closely at myself, I realized that I had become invisible.

Yunxi, the Dragon King, and others all seemed to be able to see him at this moment.

Yunxi looked at him with a face full of worry, watching him fly into the sky.

When Fang Weiyan flew to a certain height, just enough to take in the entire Jiang Kingdom, Fang Weiyan seemed to bump into something.

A ripple, like waves on water, spread through the air, and Fang Weiyan vanished.

When Fang Weiyan opened his eyes again and looked around...

The surroundings had transformed into a fairyland-like landscape.

Cranes danced all around, and auspicious clouds were right beside them, within reach.

Further away, there was a peach orchard, with the trees laden with large peaches.

If this were on Earth, it could be sold as a fairy peach.

And these peaches over here, they might even be considered celestial peaches.

Fang Weiyan's gaze lingered on the peach for a moment.

Fang Weiyan wasn't very familiar with the area, he ultimately gave up the idea.

Going to Mount Kunxu is more important; let's put this idea aside.

It would be troublesome if, after he went up there, he missed his chance to become the Human Sovereign because he picked the peaches.

After Fang Weiyan shifted his gaze from the peach, he noticed that he wasn't the only one there.

He was now surrounded by a number of men dressed in dragon robes.

These men all had dignified expressions on their faces and wore royal crowns.

Judging from their appearance, they are all emperors in their own right.
