"The reason she was so reckless tonight is probably because the intelligence was too important, and she forgot that this was your tent and thought it was mine."
Zhiyan Tianwang paused for a moment, "After all, as you know, Xiaofeng and I are mother and daughter, and we don't usually need to announce or ask when entering the camp."
Zhiyan's excuse is actually untenable. But often, both sides just need a way out.
Therefore, upon hearing what Heavenly King Zhiyan said, Qiu Tu looked at Li Feng with eyes as sharp as knives, and just stared at her.
He is now a Level Two God King, and his true strength can even rival that of a Guardian God King. Even though he didn't deliberately release his aura, just one glance at him made Li Feng feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and his face turned pale.
It was only at this moment that Li Feng realized that the man in front of her was a peerless genius who had suppressed an entire realm, unified humanity, and even subdued evil gods.
A man of that status can do anything that you can't question.
Thinking this through, Li Feng, who had finally come to terms with her identity, also suppressed her inner doubts and dissatisfaction. She bowed to Qiu Tu and apologized, "Speaker, I was rash just now. I am willing to accept the punishment."
Hearing Li Feng's words, Qiu Tu's expression softened slightly. He didn't reply to Li Feng, but looked at Heavenly King Zhiyan and said, "Since it's a misunderstanding, I won't blame her for her offense for now."
"However, Heavenly King, you should take him back and discipline him properly."
Upon hearing this, Heavenly King Zhiyan quickly replied, "Yes, Speaker."
After saying that, she said, "Then we'll go downstairs first."
"I will organize tonight's intelligence carefully. If there is any new intelligence that needs my analysis, please let me know at any time. I will be there whenever you call."
Qiu Tu had a feeling that Zhiyan was playing a double entendre. However... judging from her deliberate concealment of their relationship earlier, she didn't want it exposed to Li Feng. So Qiu Tu didn't expose her, but simply nodded and waved.
Seeing this, Heavenly King Zhiyan quickly grabbed Li Feng and stepped out of Qiu Tu's tent.
However, perhaps because she needed to carry Qiu Tu's children, her movements were slightly strange.
Li Feng walked beside Zhi Yan, unaware of the strangeness in Zhi Yan's gait, but Qiu Tu behind her could see it clearly.
Qiu Tu's mood, which had just been disturbed by Li Feng, was reignited by that somewhat strange and seductive posture.
'She's a real beauty...'
With a sigh to himself, Qiu Tu watched the mother and daughter leave the tent, then shook his head, returned to the table, and continued to analyze the situation while smoking.
As for what the mother and daughter talk about next, whether King Zhiyan wants to be honest or continue to cover it up, it's none of his business.
The more women Qiu Tu met, the deeper his understanding of Article 77 in "The Emotional Handbook" became.
The 77th of 108 ways to enhance a relationship in "The Emotional Handbook": Women are like cats; the more you pamper and spoil them, the more they will act up and cause trouble. So, once you've won over a woman, even if you really like her, don't pamper or spoil her.
The more indifferent you seem to her, the more detached you are from your relationship, the more she'll cling to you. That's a woman's "cat-like" nature.
In record 77, this approach to relationships even works for some women who are not currently together.
If a woman has a crush on you or has feelings for you, the more indifferent you appear, the more sexually attractive you will actually be to her.
Qiu Tu didn't intentionally intend to use Article 77 of the "Emotional Handbook" this time. It was just that the situation had come up, so he naturally used it.
'Hopefully, it won't affect Li Feng too.'
'Otherwise, I'd be driven crazy by this...'
As he thought this, Qiu Tu pulled himself together and continued to work out his next plan...
.....
Meanwhile, Zhiyan, holding Lifeng's hand, led her to her own tent.
If Zhiyan, who had just been caught cheating, still felt a little guilty, then after Qiu Tu's "example," she believed she had understood Qiu Tu's solution tonight: turn the tables and use her power to intimidate others.
So, standing at the entrance of her tent, Heavenly King Zhiyan looked at Li Feng with a grim expression and said, "Little Feng! You've gone too far tonight!"
"It's you who likes Speaker Qiu, not the other way around."
“None of Speaker Qiu’s other women dare to overstep their bounds because of his affections. How dare you barge in like this?”
"Or do you think this will get his attention?"
At this point, Heavenly King Zhiyan paused for a moment, then continued, "Do you know that if it weren't for me, given Speaker Qiu's decisive and ruthless nature, you would definitely have faced punishment!"
To be honest, when Li Feng first stormed into Qiu Tu's camp, she really felt that she had caught her mother and Qiu Tu having an affair.
However, after Qiu Tu's righteous rebuke and her mother's attempts to extricate her from the predicament, and now her mother "misunderstood" her reasons for barging into the tent... for a moment, Li Feng felt a little confused.
According to her shallow understanding of human nature: if someone can even guess the "motive", then it is highly likely that they really did not think in that direction.
So... I was too sensitive and misunderstood the relationship between my mother and Qiu Tu?
Was my mother really discussing intelligence with Qiu Tu tonight? Or had I misunderstood?
For a moment, Li Feng felt like her brain had turned to mush.
At that moment, she really wanted to shout: "Mom, I can't tell anymore... I really can't tell anymore... Are you real or fake?!"
Just as Li Feng was beginning to feel lost again, a powerful aura suddenly emanated from the depths of the white mist.
Li Feng and Heavenly King Zhiyan sensed the aura at the same time, and both looked up in the direction from which it came.
At the same time, two accompanying god-kings soared into the sky, forming a battle formation in front of the camp, ready to face the uninvited guest.
A moment later, a 1.8-meter-tall man with sea-blue skin, resembling an Avatar, arrived in front of the tent.
Zhiyan Tianwang and Lifeng exchanged a glance, both seeing wariness in each other's eyes. Lifeng even waved her hand, and a set of golden armor appeared directly from the void, assembling into her body piece by piece.
Just as the two were worried that they had encountered an enemy, the big man showed them some kind of token, and the two god-kings immediately made way for him and led him toward Qiu Tu's camp.
Seeing this, Li Feng was completely bewildered, not knowing what had happened, while Heavenly King Zhiyan couldn't help but recall what Qiu Tu had said while thrusting inside her.
'Could it be... Elena or an envoy from the Dark God King?'
Even though he had seen her many times before, King Zhiyan still couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
As expected... the peerless genius who could turn the tide when the edifice of humanity was on the verge of collapse truly had some skills.
..........
At the same time, Qiu Tu also saw the "Avatar" in the camp.
He seemed quite familiar with the arrival of the "Avatar," and upon seeing him, he even smiled and nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
This surprised both the "Avatar" and the god-king who was leading the way.
"My lord, this is King Ivan. He says he has come to deliver orders to you on the orders of His Majesty the Ink."
At this point, the god-king who had led the way paused, perhaps worried that Qiu Tu would think she had acted on her own initiative, so she added, "I checked his token with the Right Guard God-King and confirmed that it was genuine, so I brought him to see you."
Hearing the god-king's words, Qiu Tu smiled and nodded, then said nonchalantly, "It's alright. I knew this god-king would come."
After saying that, Qiu Tu waved his hand and said, "Alright, go down now."
"Yes." The god bowed to Qiu Tu and then backed out of the tent.
Upon seeing this, the "Avatar" smiled and said, "I've long heard that God King Qiu Tu is a truly capable person. I didn't expect that after only a few days away, even his subordinates, the God Kings, have submitted to him."
Upon hearing the "Avatar's" words—whether sarcastic or exaggerated—Qiu Tu simply smiled.
He said, "This is all thanks to Her Majesty Elena's excellent upbringing."
After saying that, Qiu Tu gestured and said, "You agree, Your Majesty Elena? Please sit down."
Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, the "Avatar" shuddered and then gave Qiu Tu a strange look.
After a moment, she chuckled softly, her body slowly dissolving and transforming into a graceful, beautiful, and shapely goddess.
It was none other than Qiu Tu's immediate superior: Elena.
Elena adjusted her skirt and languidly sat down in a chair. Tonight, she had changed back into her usual open-fronted, plain-colored nightgown. Coupled with her unsteady posture, the view from Qiu Tu's perspective was breathtakingly beautiful, with towering peaks and endless vistas.
Elena didn't seem to care. Given her relationship with Qiu Tu, he had seen and touched far more than she had just done, so she casually joked, "You don't seem surprised by my arrival?"
She looked at Qiu Tu with her beautiful eyes, and said with a half-smile, "It seems... you've already guessed why I've come here?"
Upon hearing Elena's words, Qiu Tu leaned back, put his feet on the table, lit a new cigarette, and said while smoking, "I guessed more than just the purpose of your visit."
"I also guessed your plan with the Ink God King."
"Even...knowing that the plan wouldn't work."
If Qiu Tu's revelation of his identity had only surprised Elena somewhat, her current words truly astonished her.
She couldn't help but look at Qiu Tu, just about to ask him a question.
As a result, Qiu Tu exhaled a puff of smoke and casually added, "Besides, I actually already have a better way to break the deadlock."
Seeing Qiu Tu's arrogant and shrewd demeanor, Elena was initially taken aback, but then her expression slowly turned into a smile, which grew stronger over time.
Finally, she licked her lips, looked at Qiu Tu with interest, and asked, "Tell me about it?"

Chapter 843 Elena is startled by Qiu Tu (Win an iPad with monthly tickets)
Ever since Elena arrived tonight, Qiu Tu knew that all his guesses and deductions were correct. This put his mind at ease.
This even gave him the leisure to flirt and chat with Elena.
Therefore, Qiu Tu did not answer Elena's question immediately. He simply looked at Elena, then, while smoking, asked with a faint smile, "What would you like to hear me say first, sir?"
Upon hearing this, Elena slightly opened her eyes, lazily looking at Qiu Tu with a faint smile on her lips. "I... want to hear your assessment of the current situation first."
This is the core of everything. If Qiu Tu is wrong, then there's no need to listen to the rest.
Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu didn't waste much time on words. Instead, he summarized it in a short sentence: "The Immortal Heavenly Tomb is setting up a scheme, while a certain lord in the Temple of Order wants to set up the middle scheme."
Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, a smile slowly bloomed on Elena's face.
She genuinely admired Qiu Tu's strategic planning and confident demeanor. It made him exceptionally charming.
Of course, this is on the premise that Qiu Tu's act of showing off is successful.
So, she looked at Qiu Tu, nodded slightly, and then said with a smile, "He truly lives up to my expectations of this man."
"Even though I was in the thick of it, my senses were so sharp."
"Congratulations, you guessed right."
After saying that, she leaned back in her chair, looked at Qiu Tu with interest, and continued, "Since you guessed this, you must also know that you are already deeply involved in the game and have been used as a pawn."
Hearing Elena's words, Qiu Tu nodded slightly and replied, "Of course."
"I know that the bigwig wants to use my life, or my being trapped, as a starting point to intervene in this matter."
Elena's eyes held even more admiration. As an outsider, she could clearly see the entire game because of her detached position and the wealth of information she possessed.
Qiu Tu was clearly deeply involved in the situation, and his intelligence and information were fragmented. Under these circumstances, he was still able to piece together the entire sequence of events, which truly demonstrates his skill.
More importantly... judging from Qiu Tu's words, he not only pieced together the whole story, but also figured out how to deal with it.
A person who can identify problems is not necessarily a talented person, but a person who can identify problems and solve them is definitely a talented person.
And when dealing with talented people, of course, we must show them sufficient respect.
Therefore, seeing that Qiu Tu had guessed everything, Elena also explained the current situation.
She parted her full, bright red lips slightly and said, "You guessed right."
"Upon discovering that the 'Immortal Heavenly Tomb' was planning for the next era's attributes, one of the rulers astutely sensed this opportunity."
"There are actually only three paths to qualify for the next era's attributes: order, mystery, and immortality."
"On the surface, the strongest and most promising is our 'Order Path'."
"However...you should know that the high-ranking God-Kings of the 'Mystic Path' and the 'Immortal Path' are all incredibly wicked and cunning."
"Moreover, the 'Temple' has been investigating not only the 'Path to Immortality' but also the 'Mystical Path' in recent years."
"This route has nothing to do with our 'West,' so I don't know much about it."
"I only guessed from the few words spoken by the Dark-Robed Emperor that the 'Mysterious Path' must have made many preparations and was planning something big."
"It can be said that both of our competitors have unknown cards to play."
"Therefore, over the years, the four rulers have been making various preparations to cope with the changes to come."
"But who knew that at this very moment, the intelligence you gathered not only revealed the 'Immortal Heavenly Tomb' plan to the Emperors, but also forced the 'Three Immortal Giants' to launch the plan ahead of schedule."
“In this situation, everything is different.”
"The disruption of the 'Immortal Heavenly Tomb' plan will expose numerous flaws. The 'Mysterious Path' will also be affected, potentially forced to withdraw prematurely."
