The Heavens: Thousands of Households Starting from Number One in the World

The full moon hangs high in the sky, and the cold moonlight shines on Wanku Mountain.

In front of a cave covered with vines in the mountains, there was a flash of light, and Chenxiang, Xiaoyu and Ao Chun appeared out of thin air.

The cold wind from the cave brushed against the faces of the three people, awakening them from their trance.

"Where is this?" Chen Xiang rubbed his temple and was the first to react. He walked out of the cave, looked up, and was stunned.

Before my eyes was a bottomless cliff, shrouded in mist, as if a layer of veil was covering the true appearance of the mountain.

However, Chenxiang had divine blood and extraordinary eyesight. Through the mist, he saw a mountain with holes everywhere - countless caves were densely distributed on the mountain wall, like a honeycomb. What shocked him even more was that in each cave, there was a faint flickering of life energy, as if countless pairs of eyes were watching them in the dark.

"Ah! Wanku Mountain! That male immortal did not lie to us! He was able to teleport us across tens of thousands of miles!" Xiaoyu shouted excitedly, her eyes flashing with joy and shock.

I didn’t expect that the immortal was so powerful!
"Look, it's still night!" Xiaoyu said excitedly.

Ao Chun rubbed his eyes and asked in a daze: "Isn't there still tens of thousands of miles to go? How come we're here so soon?" He was half-conscious at the time and now had no idea of ​​the situation.

"Ah? This is Wanku Mountain?" Chenxiang still couldn't believe it. He sensed that the demonic energy here was extremely strong, and there might be quite a few of them.

In the past, it was very rare to encounter a goblin in the wild.

"Let's go!" Xiaoyu's face was full of joy. She held Chenxiang's arm with one hand and Ao Chun with the other, and walked towards the depths of the cave with a slightly joyful pace.

"Xiao Yu, wait!" Chenxiang hesitated and looked worried.

"What's wrong?" Xiaoyu turned around and looked at the boy, revealing a lively, clever and cute face.

"Xiao Yu, during this time we have been together, we all know that you have a kind heart! But... we cannot guarantee the situation in Wan Ku Mountain..." Chenxiang said in a deep voice.

What if it's full of monsters that eat people without leaving any bones?

Ao Chun also woke up. He nodded solemnly, indicating that he agreed with Chenxiang's statement. If they were to encounter a group of hungry and thirsty evil monsters, his real dragon body would probably be very popular.

"Oh, my mother is the founder of Wanku Mountain. She is the queen and the boss. Besides, the monsters in our Wanku Mountain don't eat humans!" Xiaoyu rolled her eyes and continued.

"Really?" Chenxiang asked suspiciously.

"Really?" Xiaoyu was speechless and said, "Chenxiang, I find that you are much more cautious now!"

"I have to be careful. I have important things to do and I can't die on the way!" Chenxiang said.

"Let's go, trust me!" Xiaoyu said.

Then the three of them gradually walked into the cave. When they first entered the cave, Chenxiang felt a chill as if his bones were frozen. However, as they went deeper, the scene before him shocked him.

The interior of the cave was not as narrow and dark as imagined, but a vast underground world. The mountain belly was hollowed out, forming a huge space, like a small demon country hidden in the mountains.

The ceiling of the cave is high, and the stone walls are inlaid with countless glowing crystals, emitting a soft light that illuminates the entire space.

What shocked Chen Xiang was that on the ground, there were neatly arranged fields, and the crops in the fields were growing well and full of green. What was even more surprising was that the people working in the fields were not humans, but some monsters in human form. They were either bending over to plant rice or wielding hoes to weed, and their movements were skillful, just like farmers.

"For hundreds of years, my mother has encouraged these monsters who joined our Wanku Mountain to obtain food through farming. The food for hundreds of years was obtained by the monsters themselves or by hunting wild animals." Xiaoyu explained proudly, "It was my mother who spent hundreds of years to build this place into a self-sufficient monster country. Monsters live and work here in peace and contentment. They don't have to rush around for survival, and they don't have to be discovered by monster killers just to taste human flesh... It can be considered a merit!"

Chenxiang was stunned when he heard this and was full of admiration for Xiaoyu's mother.

As they went deeper, Chenxiang and Ao Chun were stunned, because none of the monsters showed any ferocious look when they saw they were in human form. Instead, they were all concentrating on doing their own things.

However, there were several monsters with young growth rings among them, and they greeted Xiaoyu.

The comfortable and peaceful life without exploitation and struggle for fame and fortune made Chenxiang and Ao Chun feel extremely comfortable from the bottom of their hearts.

"This place... is like a paradise on earth." Chenxiang murmured.

Xiaoyu smiled slightly, with a look of joy in her eyes: "Yes, this is the hard work of my mother, and it is also the home of our Wanku Mountain demon clan."

The three of them continued to move forward until they reached the depths. The monsters they met along the way greeted Xiaoyu one after another with a friendly attitude. Although there were still many monsters who looked at Chenxiang as a human being with surprise, Chenxiang could feel that although the monsters here had different forms, they did not mean to make him feel dangerous.

……

"We're here! My mother lives here!" Xiaoyu said excitedly, pointing ahead. Her eyes fell on a huge rock, where stood a two-story wooden house with simple decorations. Xiaoyu shouted loudly, "Mom, I'm back!" Before she finished her words, she ran up the stone steps.

Chenxiang and Ao Chun looked at each other, and there was a hint of surprise in each other's eyes. In their minds, Xiaoyu's mother, as the king of the Wanku Mountain demon clan, should live in a magnificent palace, not such a simple wooden house.

Xiaoyu pushed open the wooden door, and with a "click", she stepped into the house. However, the scene in front of her stunned her. Chenxiang and Aochun followed closely behind and also saw the scene in the house.

The lobby of the wooden house was not spacious, and three people were sitting there. The leader was the fox girl who had been friends with Yang Jian and Yang Chan in the past. The years had left their mark on her face, and the innocence of the past had been replaced by solemnity. However, what surprised Xiaoyu and the other two was not the fox girl, but the two people on her left and right who exuded fairy spirit.

"Xiao Yu, why are you back? Weren't you out there gaining experience?" Fox Girl asked in confusion.

"Well, something happened, so I came back early." Xiaoyu scratched her head, and her bright eyes looked curiously at the two strangers beside her mother.

"Mom, who are these two..." Xiaoyu asked tentatively.

The two looked indifferent, and when they glanced at Xiaoyu, a trace of disdain flashed in their eyes. "Xiaoyu, take your friends out first. I have something important to discuss with these two immortals." Fox Girl's tone was calm, but with unquestionable majesty.

"Oh." Xiaoyu nodded obediently and retreated with Chenxiang and Ao Chun.

"Xiao Yu, those two people seem to be gods!" Chenxiang said in a low voice, staring into the wooden house with a worried look on his face.

"I don't know! This is the first time I've seen someone with such an aura in Wanku Mountain!" Xiaoyu said.

……

In the lobby, the middle-aged immortal with white hair and white temples said in a deep voice: "Fox King, the number of demons in the Wanku Mountain lineage has far exceeded the red line set by the Heavenly Court. If this matter is discovered by the Heavenly Patrol, the consequences will be disastrous."

Another person echoed, "Your Majesty, you should know how much trouble it will cause if the number of demons gets out of control."

The fox girl was silent for a moment, then pleaded in a low voice: "Two Immortals, can you help Wankushan one more time?"

"No." The middle-aged immortal shook his head and sighed, "We have kept it a secret for hundreds of years for Wanku Mountain, and now we can no longer hide it."

"Yes, from the initial dozens to the thousands now, even if we don't report it, the heavenly generals of the Sky Patrol Palace will be able to detect the evil spirit here." Another person sighed.

A cold look flashed across the fox girl's eyes, and she looked 'pained' as she said, "If the two immortals are willing to continue to help, I would like to give you a fairy treasure." After that, a flash of light appeared in her hand, and a bracelet emitting colorful light emerged.

The bracelet was filled with fairy spirit, instantly attracting the attention of the two fairies. Their eyes were full of greed, staring straight at the treasure in Fox Sister's hand.

"This thing? It actually has such a strong fairy spirit! I'm afraid it is a treasure that only a golden immortal with three flowers gathered at the top of his head can possess!" The old immortal swallowed his saliva, unable to hide his excitement in his tone.

"If the king is willing to give this item to us, we will do our best to conceal it for Wanku Mountain and ensure that the Heavenly Court will not notice the abnormality here." Another person said hurriedly.

A trace of disgust flashed across Fox Sister's eyes, but she quickly concealed it. She said in a deep voice: "Two Immortals, this item was obtained when I traveled in the North Sea. It cost a lot. I wonder how long you can keep it secret?"

"Twenty years." The old immortal murmured.

"It's too short! This is a treasure of the Golden Immortal level!" Fox Girl flatly refused.

"Thirty years at most. If the Fox King doesn't agree, there's nothing we can do." The middle-aged immortal stood up and made a gesture to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Fox Girl shouted hurriedly.

"Have you figured it out?" The middle-aged immortal showed a smug smile.

"Thirty years is thirty years. I hope you two immortals will keep your word." The fox girl pushed the fairy bracelet in her hand towards the other party.

"Of course. After all, we have been cooperating for hundreds of years. I hope we can continue this cooperation for a long time in the future!" The old immortal put the bracelet into his sea of ​​consciousness without any hesitation.

Fox Sister was speechless and said, "Of course! The current scale of Wanku Mountain is entirely due to the help of the two of you!"

"In that case, we won't stay long. Goodbye!"

……

After a while, Fox Sister called Xiaoyu and the other two into the house. With Xiaoyu's introduction, Fox Sister gradually learned the identities of Chenxiang and Aochun. When she learned that Chenxiang was the son of the human god, Fox Sister's eyes flashed with shock, and there was a bit of complicated emotions in her eyes.

I have mixed feelings inside. Is I the same person as Brother Yang?

I wonder how Brother Yang is doing now! ?
She looked at Ao Chun again, and although she was a little surprised when she learned that he was the Prince of East China Sea, her attention was still more on Chenxiang.

At first, Chenxiang and Aochun were a little nervous, but under the gentle attitude of Fox Sister, they gradually relaxed. Xiaoyu's mother was not hostile to them, but seemed particularly kind.

"Mom, who were those two people just now? Were they immortals? The aura they exude is completely different from that of us demons." Xiaoyu asked curiously.

"Immortals? Haha, what kind of immortals are they? They are just two vile people." Fox Sister sneered, "If one of them is the local land god and the other is the mountain god, responsible for monitoring this place, I would have eliminated them long ago."

Chen Xiang heard this and secretly agreed with it. He had never had a good impression of the Heavenly Court.

The fox girl briefly recounted how the two had come repeatedly to demand "tribute" over the past few hundred years, using the excuse that the Wanku Mountain demon tribe was growing stronger.

"What? How could they do this! They are gods!" Xiaoyu widened her eyes in shock.

"People have good and evil, demons have good and evil, how can gods avoid it?" Fox Sister smiled indifferently, "As long as Wanku Mountain is not discovered by the Heavenly Court and avoids the disaster of being wiped out, these trivial matters are not worth mentioning."

"This is too outrageous!" Ao Chun said indignantly, "What's the difference between these gods and corrupt officials in the mortal world? If I return to the East China Sea, I will tell my father about this and have him go to the Heavenly Palace to sue these two people!"

"Haha, Prince Donghai doesn't have to be like this. It's just some petty gains. If it becomes known to everyone, how can we in Wankushan survive in the future?" Fox Girl's tone was calm, but with a hint of helplessness. It was obvious that the Prince of Donghai was a little too upright to turn around.

She was already at the level of Taiyi Jinxian, so it was very easy for her to refine some magic weapons that were treasured by the mountain gods and the land gods. However, the appetite of the two immortals was getting bigger and bigger. In the past, they could conceal the truth for a hundred years with only some small magic weapons, but now they could only use a Jinxian treasure to buy thirty years.

"What should we do? One day we won't be able to hide it anymore!" Xiaoyu said anxiously.

"Don't worry, I know what to do." Fox Sister smiled gently and asked, "Xiaoyu, tell me about your travels in the past few years, and how you met these two friends? Let me hear it too." (End of this chapter)
