144 Ill Be Back One Day! (2/2)
The dryads giggled, ”If you are that strong, make babies with us or find us a new plane to live in. This plane is slowly crumbling because of those alchemists and their stupid barrier!”
”That's right. Our world is getting smaller because of those alchemists and invading humans. If you like us, help us find a better place to live!”
”Hahaha! If you can find us a larger plane, I'll bear a hundred babies for you!”
WHOOSH
Before Cao Mao could say goodbye, a dozen portals opened in the sky. Several thousands of cultivators were pulled toward the colorful gates.
However, cultivators in Emerald Hopea's domain wasn't affected by the portals' gravity. The queen's ability canceled the summoning effect.
”I guess it's time to say goodbye. I'll disable my domain and let every human on the surface return.”
The queen bodyguards had a bitter smile on their faces. They sensed several humans nearby, and they still wanted to capture a few more as their livestock.
”Don't be greedy. We don't want to wage another war with Yuan Hua's subordinates.”
The bodyguards sighed in regret. Their cultivation strength depended on their age and their food, so their advancement was a lot slower than humans. Yuan Hua had already gotten stronger to the point that they couldn't offend her anymore.
As soon as Hopea disabled her domain, all cultivators in the vicinity floated toward the nearest portal in the sky.
”I'LL BE BACK, MY QUEEN! YOU GIRLS, TOO. I'LL FIND YOU ANOTHER PLACE TO LIVE!!” Cao Mao shouted before he disappeared into one of the gates.
”We'll be waiting.”
.
Cao Mao's body was ejected from the Xin Garden's portal along with many disciples of Xin Pi. They fell on the institute grass field, tumbling and rolling.
Xin Pi was waiting for them. He counted the number of the returnees.
”30, 35, 40, 42. All alive, I see. Good, good!” Xin Pi heaved a sigh of relief while he continued to mutter to himself, ”This is probably the last time we can do this. Everyone in the land is going to learn about the existence of the dryad queen by now. I wonder how many of them are still alive.”
Xin Pi ignored his disciples and Cao Mao. He flew toward the front of the Yeet City.
As for Cao Mao, he didn't talk to any disciple since he didn't know anyone. He snuck out of the garden and returned to his guest courtyard. As he hadn't slept for a whole day, he wanted to rest.

Meanwhile, at the inner royal palace chamber, an 8-year-old child was sitting in his room in front of a black skeleton. The undead's glowing white fireballs in its eye sockets were staring at the child, waiting for his commands.

Level 3 Hero, Xie Tian, has been slain.
Xie Tian has been removed from the recruitable officer list.
”Ho? That's interesting.”
The boy operated his system menus to see the change-logs.
In the window panels, details of various experts were shown, including their cultivation strength, characteristics, perks, affiliations, and personality.
The young prince was looking at the deceased man's status. He mumbled to himself.
”A hero character can't be killed that easily. Who the hell dares to assassinate my potential officer?”
The black skeleton sunk into the boy's shadow as the prince walked out of his room. He bellowed, ”Guards, summon Eunuch Rang! I have a task for him!”

The Sky Duck City, One of Zhu Clan's VIP Residents
Zhu Qiao was lazing in her bed, taking a nap as always. This lazy virgin succubus didn't care if her cultivation base would fall behind the other siblings.
Still, her toned muscle and the six-pack on her belly told another story. Zhu Qiao seemed to have trained in secret.

The ringing alarm of the system woke her up. The pink-haired girl snapped open her eyes and glared at the system panel.
