My Celestial Ascension

Following breakfast and tent packing, everyone resumed their march towards the heart of the Forest Of Never Return the next morning.

They can only move during the daytime since they cannot afford to move in the dark. Moreover, the Forest Of Never Return is the most deadly and mysterious forest on the entire continent.

Numerous formidable monsters are roaming around hunting for food, the most of them are savage and meat-eating monsters.

King Richard cannot afford to fight such big monsters nonchalantly, as they have previously struggled to deal with the Giant Purple Lizard.

If Yuan and his ladies hadn't taken over the battlefield with their incredible strength, they would have easily defeated all of the Giant Purple Lizards, including their leader.

Everyone, even the King, was grateful to Yuan and his wife for saving many people's lives by destroying the monsters, except for one person who despised Yuan.

Yuan was now walking side by side with his girlfriends, all of whom had a peaceful expression on their faces as if they were taking a stroll around the park.

General Valeria likewise appeared peaceful, and Crown Prince Daniel and King Richard, as well as the representatives of the other nations, couldn't help but stare at her, perplexed as to why she appeared so calm in such a perilous situation.

At the same time, Aurther was looking at Yuan with an angry expression on his face; merely seeing him play lovey-dovey with his wives irritated him.

"Holy Son, will you let that arrogant bastard leave just like this? Are you not going to make him pay?" One of the Holy Knights noticed Aurther's unhappy expression and inquired, concerned as to how the Holy Son could tolerate such insolence from Yuan.

The other guards nodded, and one of them asked, "He may be strong, but does he have a chance against your smart mind, Holy Son? After all, you're considered a prodigy who appears once every thousand years."

"You must have planned something to cope with that jerk, didn't you?" Another person said with a crafty smile on his face, looking at Yuan with contempt.

'These useless bastards! Don't they see how that bastard slaughtered the Giant Purple Lizards? They still ask if I'm going to do something or not.' Aurther clinched his fist in irritation as a vein developed on his forehead from hearing his bodyguards' statements.

'Will I let go of him and forgive him for the humiliation he has caused me? Definitely not! I absolutely despise that jerk! I will not relax till I make him pay! That bastard has to pay for what he did!" He exclaims inside, looking at Yuan with contempt, his eyes filled with loathing for him.

"Holy Son, please say something to us; we are eager to hear your response." One of the Holy Knights made the request and smiled slightly when he saw Aurther's stern expression.

'This bastard!' Aurther cursed inwardly in disgust; right now, he felt like slicing off the head of this Holy Knight for bothering him like way.

*Cough! * Ahem...Well, for the time being, I haven't planned anything for him because it could backfire on us," Aurther cleared his throat and spoke after regaining control of his emotions.

"We're now at a disadvantage, so making a move against him will not go well for us." He then swiftly said, "Moreover, the majority of the people are currently against us; it was wrong of me to ignore their existence, and I should've offered them my assistance at the time of their need."

"More significantly," His countenance became serious, and murderous purpose was obvious in his eyes. "That Crown Prince of an inferior Empire is also on their side; even if that Yuan bastard kills me here, with him around, no one will say anything about the reason for my death, so it's best that we don't provoke him needlessly for the time being."

"Well, even if I don't want to agree with it, the Holy Son has a point; making a move against that arrogant bastard would be quite risky." One of the Holy Knights gave a reluctant nod.

"We can't do anything because he's too powerful and has a lot of support now..." Another Holy Knight sighed in defeat.

"We simply have to be patient with dealing with that guy, and since we don't know much about him, it could be a problem for us," Aurther mumbled, exhaling a sigh a second later, privately enraged at Yuan for taking all the glory.

Later, Yuan furrowed his brow as he detected something ahead and rapidly used his divine sense to determine what it was, sensing the presence of some creatures ahead.

'A pack of ferocious red boars, nothing to worry about. However, I'm curious how their meat would taste.' He reflected, concentrating his heavenly sense on the gathering of boars.

When she saw the frown on his face, General Valeria lifted her brow and gazed at him with interest. "Did you see anything ahead? Is it a powerful monster?" she inquired, her eagerness palpable.

"A small group of enormous boars with red hair pose no threat to us, at least not to me and my women," Yuan said with a gentle smile on his face.

"Boars? Will their mean be delicious?" When Xi Meili heard this, her eyes shone with pleasure, and she drooled as she imagined the exquisite delicacies her mother-in-law Anna could prepare for her.

"All boars have great flesh, but certain of them have outstanding tenderness and tastewhencompared to other boars." General Valeriagrinned andsmiled back at Xi Meili, pleased by her infantile behavior.

"Really?!" Xi Meili enthusiastically enquired.

"Why would I be able to lie to my sister?" General Valeria chuckled.

Then she returned to Yuan and, with aseriousexpressionon her face, inquired, "Yuan, the group of boars you mentioned. Are they eight feet tall with red blood-like hair on their necks?"

"That's correct," Yuan nodded. "They stood as tall as nine feet and had vivid red hair around their necks. They also have extraordinarily sharp fangs that are nearly two feet long."

"I see…Theyreally fit the description ofaveryrarebreed of boars that almost went extinct in the outside world," General Valeria mumbled, her expression filled with surprise; she couldn't believe she'd come upon such a rare group of boars.

Yuan raised his eyebrows as he noticed Valeria's shocked expression. "It looks like you know about this hog, Valeria."

"Indeed! After all, they are one of the raresttypes ofboars—the Blood Fang Boar!" Valeria exclaims with a huge grinon her lips, her eagerness for the struggle against the boar evident in her eyes.

"The blood-fang boar! I can't believe they're still around in this forest!" Mireya's astonished voice resoundedfrombehind, drawing Yuan and his other wives' attention to her.

The Blood Fang Boar was one of the rarest boars and isnowpractically extinct. The flesh from this rare breed of boar isextremelydelicate and full of flavor, unlike that of regular boars.

Not only thatbutthis boar's bloodis utilizedto make powerful potions that sell for thousands of gold coins.Not onlythe bloodbut the entire boardismade upof precious medicinal plants.

The boar has a keen sense of smell and can readily find and consume medical herbs in the forest to boost their strength; as a result, their meat and blood have therapeutic characteristics.

As a result, their meat isextremely expensive, with a single dish made with meat from this boar costing hundreds of gold coins.

Furthermore, the boar's hide is incredibly precious and in high demand among aristocrats and wealthy people.

"Do you also know about the Blood Fang Boar, Mireya? I anticipate nothing less from the mystery owner of the 'Enchanted Tavern'." Yuan spoke.

Mireya chuckled. "If I am not knowledgeable enough, how can I make my restaurant the most popular in the kingdom?"

At this point, Yuan felt a tug on his sleeves and noticed Xi Meili pulling his shirt with her eyes gleaming, so he inquired, "What is it, sweetheart? Do you have anything to say to me?"

XI Meili nodded frequently and said, "Hubby, I want to taste the boar flesh; let's go hunt them!"

"I expected as much," Yuan said, rolling his eyes and smiling. "Okay, let's go and hunt them; I'm also intrigued about their taste."

"I love you, Hubby! You are extremely wonderful to Xi Meili!" Xi Meili shouts eagerly, embracing his neck and smiling broadly.

Meanwhile, King Richard and Crown Prince Daniel stared at Yuan and his wife, attempting to figure out what they weretalking about.

"What are they talking about? I can't hear it." Crown Prince Daniel murmured, attempting to listen to thesmallestpossible words, but he was unsuccessful since he could not hear a single word.

"I'mcurious about their conversation as well, but I can't hear it since an unknown and invisible force is blocking our senses."King Richard sigheddeeplyas he listened to Yuan's chat with his women.

"Perhaps they saw a powerful monster ahead that we are unaware of? It's fairly plausible if you look at their expressions." Suddenly, Isadora spoke from the side, offering her thoughts on the subject.

King Richard nodded. "It seems convincing enough, but it also sounds silly tome,because we should have already sensed the presence of a powerful creature nearby."

While the King and the representatives of the other nations discussed the prospect of encounteringbigcreatures ahead, Yuan took his sword from his system storage and gazed at his wives.

"You continue moving with everyone else, and Xi Meili will go with me to hunt the boars; it won't take long." Yuan then hurled the sword into the air, where it levitated, defyinglaws of thenature.
