Dongfang Huaizhu and Dongfang Qinlan (3)

The road from here to the town was both short and long.

It was short because, if they sprinted at full speed, they could arrive quickly.

It would not even take ten minutes.

It was long because walking normally took some time.

At least half an hour.

Therefore, with them walking at a normal pace, Ye Qingcang was in no hurry. And since he was in no hurry, it was only natural for him to chat with Dongfang Huaizhu and Dongfang Qinlan. "I am not from the Aolai Country you mentioned, nor am I from the so-called outside of the Circle. Before answering that question, I would like to hear your view of this world. For example, just how large is the world in your eyes?"

"How large is the world?"

Dongfang Huaizhu fell into thought.

Dongfang Qinlan murmured the question to herself.

Then, she rushed to answer first.

Though that had something to do with Dongfang Huaizhu not having settled on an answer yet.

Otherwise, under normal circumstances, Dongfang Qinlan would not have been able to beat Dongfang Huaizhu to it.

"I heard Father mention it before."

"The world is very, very big."

"Besides the territory of us humans—the regions governed by the One Qi Alliance, which cannot be explained in just a few words—there is also the territory of the Demon Race."

"Among the Demon Race's territories, Northern Mountain has always occupied the largest area."

"Next come the Western Regions and Southern Kingdom."

"Then comes Tushan."

"But if we are talking about the hardest place to attack, it is undoubtedly Tushan, despite being the smallest. Tushan borders the sea and has a natural barrier. The only way to attack it is by boat. Otherwise, flying there consumes Magic Power, which is effectively a forced reduction in one's condition."
