Chapter 94: Eastern Wilderland (1/2)

There were several dangerous places in Eastern Region publicly acknowledged as No-Man Zones or Forbidden Zones.

Those places all had similar characteristics: they were places where spirit beasts occupied the largest amount of territory and where bizarre things happened.

The Blackwood Forest was certainly one of those Forbidden Zones. The forest was the only place where black-colored trees grew.

Another place that was not the least bizarre was Eastern Wilderland.

There was a saying in Eastern Region, ”No matter how much the passage of time, there is still no season in Wilderland.”

It was a popular saying, the kind of saying that even a three years-old child knew.

If the children misbehave, their parents must have, at least once, threatened to throw them out to Wilderland. And their children will stop crying and act spoiled.

It was indeed a dreadful place, filled with the scent of death. Moreover, rain never fell in there to wash away the smell.

The plain known as Eastern Wilderland was truly bizarre.

No matter what time of the year, Wilderland would stay the same: horrid, barren, and inhospitable.

No one knew the root of its bizarreness.

Some said it was cursed, some said the Wilderness hid some unspeakable secrets or unfathomable treasures that could affect heaven and earth.

Folklore which couldn't be verified said that Wilderland was once a sea, Eastern Sea.

There Dragon King, a king of dragons, resided and presided over Eastern Sea; his children treated the ocean as their playground.

One of his sons, a very prideful one, often acted like a bully and messed around in the human village on a nearby shore.

For a long time, there wasn't anyone who could stand up against the young dragon, and thus the villagers could only swallow their grievances.

But it all changed when the son of the village chief was born, it was the long awaited third son.

His wife had already been pregnant for three years and six months made him very anxious. He believes that her son would be a prominent figure in the future.

Indeed, his third son was indeed a miraculous prodigy with superhuman strength.

Only in a month, his third son had already grown as big as a 4 years old child and what made him more proud, his third son could defeat an adult man with a wave of his hand.

One day, the young dragon came to the village to wreak havoc as he usually did.

Unfortunately for him, it was not the usual day.

In fact, this was the day of his demise.

Due to his arrogant behaviour and wantonly bullied villagers, Village Chief's third son became furious and beated the young dragon.

It might be due to carelessness or arrogance, the young dragon died on the third son's hand.
