Chapter 144 – I'll Be Back One Day!
Before this plane was discovered by the alchemists, all dryads were usually born from spiritual trees, herbs, or plants with at least 1,000 to 2,000 years of age. They gained sentience and a new body after they absorbed enough hollowed spring water, generated from the core of this plane.
Unfortunately, dryads were born female. No male dryad could be born from the spring. Even if a male plant got their sentience, they became either treants or ents.
These dryads could maintain their youthful appearance forever as long as they obtained enough sunlight and fertilizers, aka mammal creature's blood and flesh. If they consumed a human or a monster, they would gain a portion of the victim's intelligence and knowledge.
However, as they gained more intelligence from dead cultivators, they developed worldly desire.
They got bored. They wanted something to entertain their slow lives.
One day, an orc king and his army visited their plane to relay the news about the fallen of the Aves Continent. While they were staying in the dryad's plane, the horny orcs ravished some of the dryads.
The dryads didn't mind. In fact, they enjoyed the vitality of these lustful creatures. Some of the dryads got pregnant, and they gave birth to various plant monsters and mutated orcs.
The orc king and his army departed after a year of his stay. He brought all mutated orcs and some dryads to a lower world, hoping to build a new empire.
The dryad's plane became fertile as the orcs left them with various seedlings and new plants to grow in this world. Because of the new seeds and baby monsters, the dryad's home wasn't so boring anymore.
But then, the alchemist sect came in and ransacked their home. Peace-loving plant spirits and fairies were hunted down for their power.
Enraged, the dryads waged war against the alchemists. For 10 years, they fought in bitter battles, and both sides lost many soldiers.
In the end, the Myriad Cauldron's strongest expert at that time, Yuan Hua, negotiated with Emerald Hopea for a truce. As compensation, Yuan Hua promised to retreat her forces from the plane for good. However, she wished to rent some lands to cultivate herbs for her sect.
Both sides ended up forming a mutual pact that the alchemists would rent a hundred acres of this plane's lands. In return, they would send human cultivators randomly into the dryad's territory to be their food and fertilizer.
The queen accepted. Since then, the giant dome barrier had been erected to separate the territories between the alchemist's rented territory and the dryad's home. The alchemists grew herbs and used the local seeds to create more rare medical plants there. As for the dryads, they got to hunt stray humans in their backyard.
The laws and rules of this plane were also created by Yuan Hua, but she gave Emerald Hopea her blood essence, which could be used to cancel the dimension rules, just in case some of the alchemists took advantage of this plane. The blood essence, left behind by Yuan Hua, became a seed to Emerald Hopea's domain power later, which continued to negate the dimension's rules until today.
Still, the dryads lost too many of their kins. They needed to repopulate so that the alchemists wouldn't be able to backstab them later on.
The dryads tried to mate with the captured humans, but most of them couldn't give them enough seeds. Some of them were too weak while the rest couldn't satisfy the thirsty monster girls.
Then, a young man with great vitality and the smell of an orc showed up. When he showed enthusiasm in mating and donated his seeds to many dryads, it impressed Hopea.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThus, the dryad queen wanted to repay for Cao Mao's kindness.
.
Cao Mao was skeptical about Emerald Hopea's story since she might lie or hide vital information like Xu Xiuying. The entire development favored his existence too much that he felt like he was a protagonist with absurd luck.
However, the action of the dryad queen and her subordinates didn't lie. Their eyes glittered as if they were children looking at their favorite toy.
'I don't know if she lies or the stolen heavenly fate thingy is doing its job. I'm getting too lucky.'
While the dryad queen was explaining, she didn't stop milking him without wasting time. Though, the only downside of mating with the dryad queen was that he couldn't get any essence from his dual cultivation skill. He only got element resistance in return from drinking Hopea's spring saliva.
When Cao Mao had a few minutes left in the plane, Emerald Hopea stopped. She patted her bloated belly.
"Thank you for giving us so your semen."
"You're welcome?"
Cao Mao had no word to describe his feeling. It was another kind of pleasure when the girl did all the work.
Hopea returned the escape talisman to Cao Mao. She also gave him a spatial ring.
Cao Mao received the ring and scanned the inside. In the ring's subspace, there were several herbs and seedlings of various plants. Also, a piece of stone slab attracted Cao Mao's attention.
It was another piece of the space-and-time mural!
"I've noticed that you have another piece similar to this stone. Since we don't know what it is, we'll give it to you."
Cao Mao immediately summoned Xie Tian's mural piece and Hopea's piece. He placed them close together like how he connected two pieces of jigsaws.
They matched! The two pieces connected and merged into a large piece of the mural.
It was the second hint of Xie Tian's space-and-time ability!
"A-Are you okay for giving me this?" Cao Mao still couldn't believe it.
"We're the one who is indebted to you. Please come again next year and impregnate more of us."
"..."
Cao Mao put the stone mural into his invisible spatial ring. He turned to Emerald Hopea and her bodyguard dryads.
"I owe you. Once I'm strong enough, I'll make sure that no alchemists or humans can take advantage of your girls."
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.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs 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.
Ding
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.
Ding
The ringing alarm of the system woke her up. The pink-haired girl snapped open her eyes and glared at the system panel.
One of the potential love interests, Xie Tian, has been slain.
Xie Tian has been removed from your capturable character list.
