Chapter 389: 229, Thorn Fairy! The Plan of the Sun-Moon Sacred Land!_2
"They say the higher-ups are planning to establish a military district right here in the city center, to suppress this new biological corridor in cooperation with the Machine God Group."
"They say the city center of Shanhai City will have to be relocated elsewhere, and the surrounding real estate prices will plummet."

After hearing Lü Qingyu's words, Lin Zichen finally understood something that had puzzled him for many years.
In the last few years, Shanhai City has experienced earthquakes time and again.
Now it seems that those past earthquakes were probably caused by Giant Mutant Rats burrowing their tunnels."
...
Origin Land.
Inside a huge ancient forest castle.
The Sect Hierarch of the Divine Plant Cult knelt on the ground, his face filled with fear as he bowed his head, not daring to make a sound.
In front of him, there was a green light circle inscribed on the ground, full of runes.
As the green light on the runes grew increasingly brilliant,
the next second, a gigantic bud at least one meter in radius suddenly broke through the soil from the center of the green light circle.
As soon as the bud appeared, it immediately bloomed into a giant Man-Eating Flower with sharp fangs.
Only a sticky "hiss" sound could be heard.
The Man-Eating Flower split apart its terrifyingly wide maw, revealing a woman sitting cross-legged inside the flower's core.
With fiery red hair atop her head, the woman's hands were entwined with a ten-meter-long thorn vine, and her body was barely covered by a few palm-sized petals, exposing all her skin except for her private areas.
"Sect Hierarch, the mission to establish a stronghold on Earth has failed," the woman said, propping her chin with one hand, smiling at the Sect Hierarch of the Divine Plant Cult, her voice soft and pleasing, like the chirping of birds in the woods.
However, the Sect Hierarch of the Divine Plant Cult explained in terror, "Fairy, the plan was going very smoothly, but then a mysterious Taoist Robe Woman with great power appeared and turned everything upside down, both our forces and the Divine Plant Cult, leading to our failure."
The woman in the Man-Eating Flower was none other than the Thorn Fairy from the Sun-Moon Sacred Land, who looked delicate but was extremely violent at heart, often killing for pleasure, and was a female demon that struck terror into all.
Even the Sect Hierarch of the Divine Plant Cult, whose Biological Level was as high as a legendary first grade, trembled with fear in the presence of this Thorn Fairy, dreading being killed.
"A mysterious Taoist Robe Woman... Yes, that is indeed an uncontrollable factor."
The Thorn Fairy murmured, aware of the existence of Qi Qingmo, for she had once been involved in the pursuit of Qi Qingmo and knew just how strong Qi Qingmo was.
She did not know just how powerful Qi Qingmo was,
but she was certain that Qi Qingmo was at least stronger than her,
since she couldn't keep up with Qi Qingmo at all during her pursuit.
"It's peculiar, why didn't that Taoist Robe Woman delay our pursuit when she was escaping?"
The Thorn Fairy mused to herself.
However, she soon brought her thoughts back from Qi Qingmo and once again focused on the Sect Hierarch of the Divine Plant Cult kneeling in front of her.
She looked down on the Sect Hierarch of the Divine Plant Cult from her high position, her voice still soft as she said:
"Sect Hierarch, while the appearance of the Taoist Robe Woman is the main reason for the mission's failure, this does not mean you are exempt from punishment."
"As punishment, you must sacrifice someone dear to you."
"Tell me, which of your nine children living in the Holy Land will you sacrifice?"
Her voice was soft, but her words were malicious.
Hearing this, the Sect Hierarch of the Divine Plant Cult felt a chill in his heart and faced a painful decision.
After a few seconds, he said with great reluctance, "Fairy, if I really must make a sacrifice, then let it be the eighth."
His eighth child was the least talented among them.
If one must be sacrificed no matter what, then it had to be the least capable,
to minimize the loss as much as possible.
Upon hearing this, the Thorn Fairy licked her lips, savoring the moment, "I knew you would choose him, which is why I ate him before coming to you. He was quite delicious with an enduring taste."
Listening, the Sect Hierarch of the Divine Plant Cult was furious but dared not express it, burying his head as low as possible, not showing his anger under the scrutinizing eyes of the Thorn Fairy.
The Thorn Fairy noticed his anger but didn't care.
She continued in her sweetly soft voice:
"Sect Hierarch, from now on, the Divine Plant Cult's focus should be on expanding its scale on Earth and no longer be responsible for opening new biological corridors."
"When the Domain Power on Earth has retreated to a critical point, then follow the other powers in a joint attack on Earth."
"After that, choose a pre-selected boundary to establish the base."
With that said, the Thorn Fairy manipulated the Man-Eating Flower to close its gaping maw and instantly escaped into the green light circle, vanishing from sight.
She left behind a Sect Hierarch of the Divine Plant Cult with a darkened complexion.
...
Elsewhere.
The battlefronts before the various human cities.
The Exotic Beasts, which had been attacking the human cities en masse, suddenly retreated at high speed and stopped their assault on the cities.
The numerous human powerhouses, who had been ready for a fight to the death with the beast horde, were all somewhat stunned upon seeing this scene.
Unsure of what had happened to make the beast horde suddenly give up their attack on the cities.
"Province Lord, what's going on?"
On the battlefield in front of City Number 1, a man covered in Beast Armor looked puzzled as he turned to Ye Yongsheng for answers.
Ye Yongsheng furrowed his brows and did not answer, clearly just as clueless.
Until a bird-person flew over hastily to report:
"Province Lord, that Taoist Robe Woman who was crazily attacking the beast horde suddenly appeared on Earth's side, and annihilated both the Divine Plant Cult and the beast horde that had occupied the city center of Shanhai City."
