Chapter 2121: Wasteland

Han Fei was not worried that Ye Lan would tell others her doubts, because after asking her, he would cut off Ye Lan’s memories about this part.
At this moment, Ye Lan was horrified.
There were only two reasons why Han Fei and the others would ask such a question.
The first was that they were outsiders. They might be from the Divine Capital Dynasty or the Fist Light Mountain, and they had barged in by mistake. Because if they hadn’t, it was impossible for them not to know where they were.
The other possibility was terrifying. They might be from a primitive graveyard.
However, what shocked Ye Lan was that so many strong masters could come out of a primitive graveyard at once. Was it still a primitive graveyard?
More importantly, these people seemed to be humans. Although she couldn’t see through them, if they were not humans, their human forms were too perfect.
Looking at these people’s bearing, they did seem to be different from scavengers, especially the one with a sword on his back. He didn’t look like a simple person.
Ye Lan said, “My lord, our entire domain is called the Chaotic Wasteland. It’s the most remote dangerous place under the rule of the Divine Capital Dynasty in the Sea Realm, also called the Ominous Land.”
Han Fei’s heart did a flip. Sure enough, this was the right place.
Han Fei said, “Continue! Tell me as much as you can. You should know how much I want to hear.”
Ye Lan didn’t dare to disobey, but she couldn’t help asking, “My lord, I only know a little about the situation outside the Chaotic Wasteland. It was all told by others. I don’t know if it’s true or not. I’m only familiar with the No. 8091 Scavenger Sea Area.”
Han Fei said indifferently, “Tell me as much as you can.”
......
Ye Lan thought to herself, This probably corresponds to my guess. These people don’t seem to care that I know their real background. Are they planning to silence me by killing me?
Unfortunately, she couldn’t disobey them at this moment. She could only hope that for the sake that they were also human beings, these people wouldn’t kill her.
Ye Lan said, “My lords, as far as I know, the Sea Realm is divided into five major divine realms. In addition to the four divine realms in the east, west, south, and north, there is also the Central Sea Divine Realm. We are in the East Sea Divine Realm, where the Divine Capital Dynasty and the Heavenly Race are the strongest forces, ruling this divine realm. In this divine realm, the strong and famous forces include the Divine Capital Dynasty, the Gate of Heaven, the Fist Light Mountain, the East Sword Pavilion, the Ghost Strait, the Infinite Mining Area, the Sky Crater World, and our Chaotic Wasteland…”
When Ye Lan introduced the East Sword Pavilion, the Sword God and Wang Yijian narrowed their eyes slightly. Sword cultivators were only interested in swords.
Therefore, as soon as they heard the name, they knew where their destination was.
In Han Fei’s mind, the old turtle’s voice sounded, “Also, there’s another place called the Demon God Sea…”
When the old turtle spoke, the Sword God and the others all looked at Han Fei. Han Fei’s face immediately turned black, and his consciousness fell on the Soul Sea. “Old Yuan, you’re a f*cking soul now. Don’t you know that? I’m surrounded by emperors. If it weren’t for the fact that my soul is strong, your words would have been heard. I know you have something to say now, but no rush. Since we’ve come out, we have plenty of time for you to say it later.”
Sure enough, the old Snail Emperor couldn’t help but say, “Han Fei! Human hearts are sinister. Will the restless soul body in your body pose a threat to you?”
Han Fei replied, “No.”
At this time, Ye Lan continued, “It’s said that our Chaotic Wasteland was once the place where the gods fought. There are a large number of primitive graveyards here, which are the Origin Grounds that have been dug…”
Tian Yuan interjected, “What is the Origin Ground?”
Ye Lan’s heart turned cold. These people were indeed from a primitive graveyard!
Han Fei secretly said to them via voice transmission, “Our Raging Sea belongs to a Origin Ground, and the Origin Ground that has been attacked and cleared by strong masters is called the primitive graveyard. Senior Tai Yuan, let me ask her.
Tai Yuan’s words were equivalent to admitting their background. Although Ye Lan might have guessed Han Fei’s background, now that Tai Yuan confirmed it, she was in danger.
Tai Yuan nodded quietly. Yes, he was too rash.
Then, Ye Lan continued with an uneasy mood, “Perhaps the aftershock of the divine battle caused the Chaotic Wasteland to be densely covered with ominous aura, causing almost all the marine creatures here to be contaminated by the ominous mist. Ordinary people who touch it will have their souls corroded and go crazy. They don’t recognize their loved ones and only want to swallow the ominous aura. They are unconscious. But fortunately, these ominous creatures have pure crystals in their bodies. These are their life crystals and won’t be contaminated.”
Han Fei keenly noticed a problem. “Why is that fish just now conscious and able to organize defenses?”
Ye Lan said, “A small number of creatures that are contaminated by the ominous aura will produce some intelligence, but it won’t be very high. Most of the time, it’s the instinctive behavior of marine creatures. For example, the Dog Tooth Black Snapper just now, in fact, they will have a leader in the first place. Sacrificing themselves to protect the leader is normal for them. If they want to have some intelligence, they have to at least reach the Sea Establishment realm, but even so, their intelligence won’t be high.”
Han Fei nodded slightly. “OK! Go on.”
Ye Lan said, “For everyone living in the wasteland, the sea surface is an unreachable place. No one can return from the sea surface alive. I don’t know why. My lords, don’t go there easily.”
Han Fei thought to himself, I’ve already been there, but he certainly wouldn’t tell Ye Lan, so he just nodded slightly.
Ye Lan said, “In the Chaotic Wasteland, there are three major forces, which are also the three main cities, namely the City of Scavengers, the City of Wanderers, and the City of Origin. Among them, the City of Origin is a very ancient main city in the Chaotic Wasteland. I don’t know when it was established. As for the City of Scavengers, after the war of gods, there were too many primitive graveyards here, and a large number of Sea Realm powerhouses came to scavenge and then formed a city. As for the City of Wanderers, it’s because the Chaotic Wasteland is remote and extremely dangerous, but it’s liked by some wanderers, so they built a city here. These three big cities all have Monarch-level powerhouses, and there is more than one.”
Han Fei said, “Tell me about the City of Scavengers.”
Ye Lan nodded. “The city of scavengers has 13,000 domains. Our city belongs to the No. 8091 Scavenger Sea Area. I don’t know its range, but if you want to go from one domain to another, you may need to be a Sea Establisher. It’s difficult for Venerables to go from one domain to another alone.”
Han Fei asked, “Do you have a sea chart?”
Ye Lan shook her head. “Even our village leader might not have a precious thing like a sea chart. At most, we have a sea chart of the Mountain City where we are. The Mountain City is a small city that governs nearly a hundred villages, including mine. It has a Sky Opening realm lord guarding it.”
“Oh? A Sky Opening Realm cultivator only governs more than a hundred villages? How many people does your village have?”
Ye Lan said, “Our village has more than 300,000 people. It’s said that the higher the ranking of the villages, the larger the population, and the more strong masters there are.”
Han Fei nodded. “Are they all humans and humanoids?”
Ye Lan shook her head. “There are also some from other races, but humans account for the majority, at least 60%.”
Han Fei asked, “Do you know the history of the human race?”
Ye Lan shook her head. “Perhaps only the village leader knows.”
Han Fei continued. “Then why do you have to cultivate by killing these marine creatures contaminated by the ominous? Although this place is a wasteland, I find the spiritual energy here is actually not weak. Why do you have to take such a big risk to hunt these ominous creatures?”
Ye Lan shook her head slightly. “Our cultivation conditions are relatively difficult. It’s very difficult for us to have enough resources to cultivate. Most of the resources have actually been handed over. Not only our village, but also other villages.”
“Oh? You can get a lot of resources? And you have to hand them over?”
Ye Lan shook her head again. “Actually, there are very few. Apart from cultivating, we just dig mines. When we have some free time, we’ll come out to hunt. The rise and fall of a village depends on the joint efforts of many people. In the Chaotic Wasteland, every once in a while, which is usually a hundred years, there will be a tide wave. We need to dig out the Clean Stone, cast a defensive array, and resist the tide wave. Only then can we survive and think about cultivation and growth. However, we can’t dig enough Clean Stones. In addition, every ten years, the lord will send tax emissaries to collect the Clean Stone and some resources. Therefore, if we want to survive, we have to go out to hunt and grow up quickly…”
Han Fei couldn’t help being moved. It sounded that their lives were even more miserable than the people in the Raging Sea. After tens of thousands of years, many people would probably collapse.
These people were not strong enough. First of all, they couldn’t walk out of the Chaotic Wasteland at all. Even if they had established the sea, the resources they consumed might carry the hope of many people and their lives still might not be good.
Although Han Fei could tell that Ye Lan was deliberately pretending to be pitiful, she was probably afraid that he would kill her!
Han Fei said, “Okay, one last question. Have you heard of the An family?”
Han Fei didn’t expect Ye Lan to know the existence of the An family. In fact, as he expected, Ye Lan shook her head in confusion. Obviously, with Ye Lan’s strength, what she knew was limited.
Han Fei said, “I’m going to cut off this part of your memory. Don’t resist.”
When Ye Lan heard that, she immediately relaxed. She would rather not remember anything. Sometimes, knowing too much was a sin.
