Chapter 4: Eastern Desolate

As Yuxin explained till this point, she paused to see if Yuan was following her or not and continued to speak after a while,

"The Hydra clans make their homes in the vast swamps and rivers, where their multiple heads, regenerative, and poison abilities make them formidable.

The lesser-known races, such as the Shadow Panthers, who excel in stealth and assassination, and the Ironclad Turtles, who are nearly invincible in defense, also inhabit this region. Though the invincible defense is just those idiots spouting nonsense."

"There are also races like the Stone Giants, who dwell in the rocky terrains and are known for their immense strength and durability, and the Sea Serpents, who rule the coastal waters with their serpentine grace and aquatic prowess. There are many more races who live in lakes or other water bodies."

"Even within these groups, there are countless sub-clans and variations. For instance, among the Celestial Foxes, there are the Nine-Tailed Foxes who are particularly revered, while the Three-Tailed Foxes are more common.

Similarly, the Golden Crows have sub-clans based on the color of their feathers and their size, with the Three-Legged Golden Crows being the most powerful.

"The Eastern Desolate Region is a melting pot of diverse and unique races, each with its own strengths, weaknesses, and culture. These races often interact with one another, forming alliances, engaging in trade, and sometimes even coming into conflict.

"Now, when it comes to the human cultivators, they have established their own sects and clans, often based on the unique resources and cultivation techniques available in their specific regions.

Some human sects even ally themselves with powerful beast clans, gaining mutual benefits from such partnerships. While some other human and beast clans have blood feuds."

Yuan listened with wide eyes, his curiosity piqued. "Mother, what about the human clans and sects here? How do they compare to these beast races?"

Yuxin raised her eyebrow as she asked, "Are you not curious about Beast Clans like Dragon or Phoenix? Or you don't like beast races?" At the end of her questions, her voice shook slightly but Yuan did not notice it as he replied.

"I'm just curious about the Human race condition in this world, all the beast races sound super powerful after all."

They finished eating their dinner while having some small chit-chat, as Yuxin stood up after eating she spoke to Yuan, "It's time to sleep, let's go to our room Yuan."

She smiled gently as she took Yuan's hand and led him towards their room. Yuan just nodded and tagged along after saying, "Good night Aunt Huo and Aunt Bing."

Both of them smiled at him sweetly as they both chirped, "Have sweet dreams, Young Master."

Huo Rong continued in a mischievous tone, "Do go easy on madam, Young Master." Both sister's bell-like laughter rang out around the dining room.

Yuan got embarrassed and ran away from the dining room as fast as he could. Yuxin just shook her head slightly as she spoke to the sisters.

"Don't tease him too much else he stop playing and talking with you."

She went after Yuan as she left the dining room, leaving both Huo Rong and Bing Rong speechless. Huo Rong looked at the leaving figure of her madam and spoke to Bing Rong,

"Umm did I mess up with Young Master Yuan? He won't be mad at me right?"

Bing Rong replied with a wry smile, "Well we will have to see that for ourselves, we will sleep together with him tomorrow and tell him lots of stories as an apology, how does that sound?"

Huo Rong's eyes brightened as she nodded her head quickly in agreement, "Yes we can definitely do that, Young Master likes it whenever we hug him to sleep while telling him stories, let's go to the library to look for some stories to tell him."

After deciding on what to do both of them left towards the library.

At another part of the mansion, Yuxin caught up with Yuan, she asked him in a slightly teasing voice, "Aww is Yuan'er embarrassed from their teasing?"

Yuan just turned his face in the other direction as he thought, 'Of course, I will be embarrassed by their teasing, I'm not a kid that won't understand what they are saying.'
