Imperial Capital. The teleportation array leading to Senyu Beast Forest. All the talented males of the Rong Family had been brought here. Without finding Rong Ruo or any news of Sally, Zong Silu, as he had said, was exiling all the Rong family members to the Dark Continent, except for the old, the weak, the women, and the children. The Rong family head also knew that this was the greatest concession and mercy from the Zong Residence. Sending them to the Dark Continent to kill demon beasts would be an honorable death. After all, the Rong family had two highly valued females with above-average fertility strength that were captured by phantom demon beasts and died on the Dark Continent; they had long wanted revenge. So, in a way, their wish was granted. "Thank you, Brother Zong," the head of the Rong Family bowed to Elder Zong. Elder Zong patted his shoulder, "Take care." This departure was destined to be without return. Zong Silu did not appear; he had already taken his son and set off for the Dark Continent. His different space was stocked with enough milk to last Little Lushu for a month. Elder Zong naturally did not want the newborn Little Lushu to go with Zong Silu, but no matter what he said, it was of no use. He still took him away. The teleportation array suddenly lit up, and everyone looked toward it. Someone had teleported back to the Imperial Capital. After a flash of blinding white light, two figures appeared. It was Sally and Rong Ruo. They were teleporting to Feifeng State when there was a problem with the teleportation array from Feifeng State to the Imperial Capital; after some repairs, they managed to rush back. By then, the sun had already risen. Seeing the two of them, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Elder Zong in particular, his eyes welling up with tears, "It's good that you're back." Waiting for Rong Ruo was a heavy slap from the Rong family head, viciously landing on Rong Ruo's cold, porcelain-like face, immediately leaving five bloody finger marks. Sally was shocked, "Why do you hit him?" The Rong family head immediately bowed deeply to Sally, "This unfilial son kidnapped Lady Sally, committing an unforgivable crime. Today, he is handed over to Lady Sally for punishment. To beat or to kill, it's entirely up to you!" Sally was astonished... She looked at Elder Zong, "What's going on here?" Elder Zong briefly explained, "Rong Wu took you away. The Beast Emperor was enraged, thus ordering Silu to hold the Rong Residence accountable. Silu gave them one day; if you could be returned by then, the matter would be let go lightly. If not, the Rong Residence would be exiled to the Dark Continent." Sally frowned, looking at Rong Ruo, "The one who kidnapped me was Rong Wu, but this person here is Rong Ruo." "Rong Ruo?" Elder Zong looked Rong Ruo up and down; he seemed less arrogant than before, no longer carrying that annoying demeanor as if others owed him something. Rong Ruo bowed respectfully to Elder Zong, "Student Rong Ruo, greets Elder Zong." "...You're more polite than before," Elder Zong mused. The head of the Rong family didn't care about all that—Rong Wu or Rong Ruo, weren't they both troublemakers who did more harm than good? He truly regretted having such a problem child. "Elder Zong, I'll leave him to you. We of the Rong Residence will also go to the Dark Continent, not for anything else but to avenge the daughters of the Rong Residence!" Having said this, he led his people toward the teleportation array. Before, it could be said that they were being exiled, but now it was different; they were volunteering to go. Elder Zong bowed to the head of the Rong Family, "Noble is the resolve of the Rong family head! I will report this to His Majesty the Beast Emperor, and when the Rong family head returns, you shall certainly be honored for your bravery." "Thank you!" the Rong family head returned the bow, then cast a sharp, disgusted glance at Rong Ruo, "The Rong Residence... has no place for you anymore!" These words meant his expulsion from the Rong Residence. After that, their group vanished into the teleportation array. Rong Ruo, with his head bowed, seemed lost in thought. Sally patted his shoulder, "I'll explain to His Majesty, it has nothing to do with you." "It's my responsibility, I shouldn't have let him run free, I'm sorry Sally. Give me a few days, and when I come to find you again, you can deal with me as you see fit." "You really don't have to! Anyway, you go do what you have to, and please don't come looking for me again." Sally genuinely didn't want to see him again. Rong Wu was like a ticking time bomb; who knew when he might burst out again. Rong Ruo knew what she meant, smiled gently and sadly, and then teleported away. Elder Zong was surprised, "Is he of Heaven Rank?" "He has a Dual-Beast Body, one talent is of Earth Rank, the other is of Heaven Rank, both are of the Water Element." "Oh, now I remember, his mother was a female from the Southern District. She died after giving birth. She always wore a veil on her face, and outsiders never saw what she looked like." Sally thought of Rong Wu's mermaid beast body, that lady must also have been a mermaid, right? "What about Zong Silu and the child?" "Alas! Speaking of Zong Silu, he's unbelievably stubborn. He took the child and went to the Dark Continent." "What!?" ... There were still nineteen hours before the System finished updating. Sally was on pins and needles. Such a small cub, how could it adapt to the environment of the Dark Continent? Even she had to take a Detoxification Pill first when she went there in the past. "Daughter-in-law, don't worry too much. The Lushu Clan naturally has high dark resistance, and demonic energy has difficulty infiltrating." Elder Zong personally simmered a pot of meat porridge and brought it to Sally. Sally quickly stood up, took it with both hands, "Thank you, Father Zong." "Eat up, eat up~" Whether she called him father with or without his surname, it didn't matter. "I went to the palace and met His Majesty. Upon learning of your return, His Majesty was in high spirits and has already sent his attendant Yu Yan to the Dark Continent, ordering Zong Silu to bring the child back." "Mhm." Sally took a sip of the porridge, "Even if the resistance is high, it's still too small. If he wants to kill demon beasts, let him, but the child should at least stay behind. We cannot let him have his way in the future." "Right, daughter-in-law, what you said is absolutely correct. When he comes back, I will educate him just like that." Elder Zong was now utterly cooperative with Sally, the great hero of the family, without any objections. Sally couldn't help but laugh, "I'm at ease about the child's safety. Without absolute certainty, I don't think he would take the child with him. It's just that at such a small age, the child suffers." "Daughter-in-law is absolutely right. What about Manman? I haven't seen her for quite a few days." "Her?" Sally remembered only then that she had left the little one sleeping soundly in the System Space. The System Space could be set to various states for the children, such as sleeping, playing games, learning languages, or learning innate talent skills. Currently, since Manman was still little, Sally mostly let her sleep, or play games, or learn to speak. She would let her learn talent skills when she was bigger. "Oh, she's probably still at the inn. I'll bring her over later to keep Father Zong company." "Good, good, then I'll be waiting." "By the way, I was abducted by Rong Wu to the Southern District this time. How's the relationship between the Eastern District and the Southern District?" "So-so. The demon beasts of the Dark Continent don't attack the Southern District, so they care only about themselves and rarely interact with the Eastern District." "Why don't the demon beasts attack the Southern District but frequently attack the Eastern and Western Districts?" "Among the four districts—East, South, West, and North—the Eastern District has the most beastmen and species. The Avian Clan is also in the Eastern District, encompassing eighty percent of the continent's resources. The Western District is second, but in recent years, both the number and variety of species have been recovering steadily. The Southern and Northern Regions have very few beastmen. The beastmen of the Southern District are all Water Beasts that live in the water. They usually do not come on land, and their total number is not even as many as in a single state of the Eastern District. The Northern Region is perpetually freezing cold. Only some resistant species, such as the Polar Bear Beast and Snow Leopard Beast, and some other scattered groups that do not fear extreme cold exist there. The total number of beastmen there does not exceed a couple of thousand, and the number is gradually declining. The last time the Beast Emperor of the Northern Region came to the Imperial Capital for Our Majesty's birthday, he came alone, which was truly desolate. More than five hundred years old, he was without a mate or offspring." "...So, besides the four districts of East, South, West, and North, are there any other districts?" "Are you asking if there are other beastman areas beyond the continent?" "Yes." Elder Zong peeled another Spirit-grade fresh fruit for Sally, "The Beast World Continent where we reside is only the foundational part of the huge Beast World. If one considers the Beast World Continent as one district of the Beast World, then there are indeed many other beastman districts." "Beast World?" Sally recalled what Xiaomei had said, that her name was the Offspring System of the Beast World. So, she had originally thought that the Western District was like Novice Village, that she started to level up when she reached the Eastern District, and then she would complete her mission and return to Earth. In reality, the entire Beast World Continent was actually Novice Village!?
