The mystery of the Human Sovereign

"Never done it before?"

Fang Weiyan was taken aback when he heard this.

From what he knew, ships loaded with taxes had been capsized, and ships transporting grain for disaster relief in Pingjiang City had also been capsized.

But judging from the Dragon King's words, it seems that's not the case.

"Of course not!"

Upon hearing this questioning inquiry, the Dragon King immediately replied.

It was only Fang Weiyan had just saved his child's life that he didn't even bother to explain. If it were anyone else, he wouldn't have bothered to explain.

Seeing the Dragon King's serious expression, Fang Weiyan knew the answer.

If that's the case, then it can only mean that the previous news was completely fabricated.

Perhaps it was to seize those taxes, or perhaps someone wanted to use the Dragon King to wage war against the Jiang Kingdom.

Their intentions were extremely malicious.

"Speak, what do you desire? I will do my best to satisfy you."

The Dragon King emphasized it again.

"Father, that's my savior, please be more polite!"

Seeing the Dragon King speak like this, the little black fish became dissatisfied and used its head to bang against its father.

Clearly, he was extremely dissatisfied with his father's condescending attitude.

Looking at his son's condition, the Dragon King could only smile wryly. But after thinking about it carefully, he realized that the other party had indeed pulled his child back from the brink of death.

For a dragon king to act like this in such a matter would be extremely ungentlemanly.

Thinking of this, the Dragon King's tone softened considerably, "Tell me, Your Excellency, what do you desire? I will do my best to fulfill your wish."

"This is to repay your kindness in saving my son's life."

Upon hearing this, Fang Weiyan thought for a moment and then asked, "Does the Dragon King possess any cultivation Cultivation Method for mortals?"

Didn't the Dragon King fight that powerful figure before?

He surmised that the other party should possess such Cultivation Method.

Upon hearing this, the Dragon King glanced at Fang Weiyan with some surprise.

After a moment's hesitation, he said, "I do not possess any Cultivation Method."

"No?"

Fang Weiyan was disappointed when he heard this. If he remembered correctly, the last time he heard the news, it was said that the Dragon King had cultivated for a thousand years.

It should have existed even longer than the Jiang Kingdom.

Jiang Kingdom is only over two hundred years old?

"Indeed, no. I have seen those mortals who have cultivated before, but my cultivation was too shallow back then, and I was no match for them."

The Dragon King was referring to the time when he was suppressed.

No...

Fang Weiyan sighed; Cultivation Method were truly hard to find.

"However, why are you so insistent on Cultivation Method? Wouldn't it be better to become a Human Sovereign?"

"The Human Sovereign?"

Fang Weiyan was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then glanced at it out of the corner of his eye.

He waved to Cheng Feng, who immediately led his men to seal off the area.

He thinks he just heard some incredible news; he can't let it get out.

Please advise.

Fang Weiyan bowed slightly and asked, as if he had a premonition that he could hear some incredible news from the other person.

"First, you must become an emperor, then expand your territory and increase your national strength. Only then will you have the opportunity to elevate your nation's power and gather national strength and fortune into yourself, becoming a Human Sovereign."

"If a nation is powerful, it can be far stronger than those ascetic cultivators. After all, no matter how much one cultivates, it is simply impossible to surpass a Human Sovereign who possesses the combined power of a nation."

The Dragon King spoke to Fang Weiyan about the matter of the Human Sovereign.

Fang Weiyan was stunned for a moment when he heard these words.

The Human Sovereign —doesn't that sound even more powerful than those cultivators?

According to this cultivation method, the power of the nation is concentrated in the body.

Speaking of this, Fang Weiyan felt that he had a strong backer, so this method seemed more suitable for him.

Anyway, he hasn't heard anything about those Cultivation Method either.

The problem is, he's currently in the Jiang Kingdom, which is still doing well. How could he possibly overthrow Jiang Kingdom?

Fang Weiyan stroked his chin, thought about it carefully, and decided it would be better to wait, since he had heard that Emperor Kaide was seriously ill.

We can try it after the other party passes away.

In this way, it's just right that he's currently the governor of Jiangling Commandery. When the time is right, he can directly grant him a fiefdom.

Judging from the previous situation, Emperor Kaide seemed like a decent person. Since the other party is still alive, it's best not to try anything with him.

Let's see how things go after the other person passes away.

In any case, Fang Weiyan right now.

However, the Dragon King's words did make Fang Weiyan's blood boil.

He has a prosperous nation as his backer, so improving national strength is actually the best option for him.

Human Sovereign...

Fang Weiyan's eyes flickered.

"Speak, what do you want?"

The Dragon King looked at Fang Weiyan and asked another question.

He couldn't leave now that he hadn't repaid the debt of gratitude.

Upon hearing this, Fang Weiyan hesitated.

Now, if you ask him what he wants, how would he know?

Gold and silver jewelry are definitely unnecessary. With such a favor to show for it, asking for such things would be too superficial.

But the other party did not have any cultivation Cultivation Method.

"What kind of things does the Dragon King have?"

Fang Weiyan thought for a moment and then asked.

Upon hearing this, the Dragon King thought for a moment and said, "I do have some gold and silver jewelry that I think you would like to have. How about I give these things to you?"

He was below the riverbed, where boats would occasionally capsize, and a great deal of gold and silver treasures sank to the bottom.

If Fang Weiyan needs it, it can be given to Fang Weiyan.

Fang Weiyan was speechless upon hearing this. He had just considered this thing, but then realized he didn't want it.

"Thank you for your kindness, Dragon King, but I have no need for these things."

Why would you need this favor? With a lucky charm like that around, Fang Weiyan felt that money was something he could easily obtain.

Upon hearing this, the Dragon King felt somewhat helpless. If it were any other mortal, they could simply obtain some gold and silver jewels.

But the person in front of me clearly has great ambitions.

"How about we owe it to him for now? If I encounter any other difficulties in the future, or if I face a life-threatening situation, I will ask the Dragon King for help."

After thinking about it, Fang Weiyan felt it was best to owe this favor for now.

Judging from our conversation, the Dragon King seems to dislike owing favors. If that's the case, it's better to let the other party owe him.

The Dragon King was taken aback by these words, and his brows furrowed.

Just as Fang Weiyan said, he really doesn't like owing favors to others.

But he wanted to repay this favor, otherwise, this karmic debt would be there for his child's future cultivation.

Fine, I'll just leave it at their expense.

Anyway, he's staying right here in the Wu River, so it's easy for Fang Weiyan to find him.

"Good."

The Dragon King nodded, then enveloped his child in a dark light before turning to leave.

The next moment, however, the blackfish struggled free from its restraints and came directly in front of Fang Weiyan Fang Weiyan, its long body circling around him a few times.

It nudged Fang Weiyan its head again before flying back.

The Dragon King watched this scene, his lips twitched, he sighed, and then left.
