This was a good series but sadly, the author seems to have abandoned it.

This series had very good starting and middle parts, but the later part was much worse especially the last 100 chapters. I believe the author likely abandoned it and may have started a new series cause he didn't know how to write a proper ending for this one. Author did apologize for the rushed ending in the end note but its still a shame since its quite hard to find a decent kingdom building novel now. If you aren't satisfied by this one, I suggest trying My Explosion Rate is 100% which has a similar setting but becomes very different after the first few chapters.

Don't listen to people saying MCs a simp below. It doesn't feel that way and all of it due to the vast difference in their cultivation levels. Even tho MC ingratiates himself to the FMC, it is meant to be funny and she doesn't take it seriously either. In fact, their conversations are quite enjoyable and will probably be half the reason you'll keep reading the series. The other half will be because of some of the side-characters and because they're written quite well for a webnovel atleast.
