'Should we get to know him and see what he's really up to?'

Just then, as Qiu Tu was thinking this, the Shadow Division member seemed to have thought of something and said to Qiu Tu, "By the way, sir."

"I suddenly remembered something interesting."

"Something interesting?" Qiu Tu looked at the Shadow Division member, puzzled.

The member of the Shadow Division nodded, then said with a smile, "Ever since he was captured, God King Mu Xin has actually been very tough."

"No matter how much we pushed or insulted them, they remained silent."

"It wasn't until he entered the military camp and was locked in a temporary cell that he finally uttered a threatening remark in retaliation."

"Threats?" Qiu Tu asked, hearing the Shadow Division member's words. "What were they?"

The member of the Shadow Division recalled for a moment, then said, "He said, 'Be careful. I'll get out of here.'"

Upon hearing the words of the Shadow Division members, Qiu Tu was first taken aback, and then his mind jolted.

Chapter 909 It's already been stepped on? (Seeking monthly votes)

Qiu Tu was startled because Lao Bai's seemingly random words sounded like a rebuttal to the Shadow Division members who had bullied him, but... upon closer examination, they also seemed to be directed at him.

"Be careful. I'll get out of here."

This sentence is strange no matter how you think about it. It's like telling yourself to take care of yourself first, not to try to rescue him, because he has other plans.

Qiu Tu's fingertips unconsciously traced across the silver mask, the cool touch calming his chaotic thoughts slightly.

Did Old Bai know that he had infiltrated the "Destroying Royal Court"? Did he even know that he had arrived at the battlefield of the "Chaotic Western Capital"?

But... that's impossible.

Even a high-ranking god-king like Lian Huiming couldn't see through his identity, so how did Lao Bai know?

She hadn't informed him about her infiltrating the "Destruction Royal Court," so how could he possibly know that the Cloud Cat God King was an imposter?

Or... was he really just threatening the Shadow Clan members because he was angry?

Qiu Tu found it increasingly strange.

He always felt that Old White was hiding a huge secret. This secret was even more astonishing than the Witch of Chaos.

Moreover, Qiu Tu wondered if it was just his imagination, but when he recalled the events that had happened since he came into this world, he always felt that Lao Bai seemed to be playing the role of a guide.

From their first encounter in the New Territories to the protection of the "Trial of the Gods" and their reunion in the "Ancient Continent," each of Lao Bai's appearances is accompanied by a series of mysteries, yet he always manages to lend a helping hand at crucial moments.

He was like a chess player standing outside the fog, while I was the most important piece on the board, completely unable to see through his thoughts or intentions...

Who exactly is he?

'What is his real purpose?'

These questions were like a tangled mess, swirling in Qiu Tu's mind, but he could never find a starting point.

However, regardless of Lao Bai's true identity, since he had sent a message telling Qiu Tu to leave him alone and be careful, Qiu Tu decided to focus on his own affairs for the time being.

He believed that, given Old Bai's methods, if he dared to say "I will get out," he must have been absolutely certain of success.

If I were to intervene rashly now, it might disrupt his plans.

Moreover, his current situation is not much better than Old Bai's.

Thinking this, Qiu Tu temporarily put Lao Bai's arrest out of his mind and turned his attention back to the second piece of intelligence in his hand.

Compared to the brevity of the first intelligence report, the second intelligence report provides a detailed record of the entire process of the Ghost Face God King's operation tonight.

Looking at the intelligence report's emphasis on Zhao Ji's astonishing feat of slaying the Berserker God King with a single sword strike, Qiu Tu felt a mix of emotions.

Pride is inevitable.

After all, she was his woman! The power of that single sword strike was enough to make the entire "Ancient Continent" tremble.

But more than anything, there was worry and a touch of amusement.

'Calling for the destruction of a tyrant? Saying he dares to come and you'll kill him?'

'You still say making faces brings good luck?'

Zhao Ji's act was truly convincing, and she had her aura firmly under control, but in the end, it was she, "Zhen Qiu Tu," who would have to bear all the consequences!

After this battle, the name "Qiu Tu" was destined to spread throughout the six major camps.

A ruthless person who can instantly kill a half-step advanced god-king and dares to challenge an advanced god-king will inevitably attract the attention of countless powerful individuals.

Although most high-ranking god-kings are reluctant to take action due to concerns about the consequences, no one can guarantee that one with a bad temper might feel offended and casually crush this "madman" to death.

Moreover, Zhao Ji's personality and talent have attracted the attention of Princess Huiming, making things even more complicated.

Thinking about this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but feel a little worried.

In the character model he created for Princess Huiming, she was clearly someone who would not give up until she achieved her goal.

Being targeted by someone like that will likely cause you a lot of trouble later on...

'Well... let's just take it one step at a time.'

Thinking this, Qiu Tu put down the documents and then gestured to the member of the Shadow Division to take them all.

He did not contact Princess Zhao rashly. Based on the character profile he had drawn for Princess Huiming, she was clearly a suspicious person.

Although he had just gained her trust, it did not mean that Princess Huiming had not made other arrangements.

Perhaps she is still monitoring him.

Therefore, there's no need for me to take risks at this time. I should wait until I return to the "Destroy the Royal Court" headquarters and then discuss things further with Zhao Ji.

Thinking this, Qiu Tu waved to the Shadow Division member, signaling him to step back.

The Shadow Division member bowed respectfully, then transformed into a black shadow once more, silently merging into the ground and disappearing from sight.

In the empty tent, Qiu Tu was left all alone.

Qiu Tu leaned back in his chair, slowly closed his eyes, and silently sorted through the intelligence he had just read, pondering how to "complete" the task assigned to him by Princess Huiming: "to win over Qiu Tu"...

.....

at the same time.

While Qiu Tu was pondering the task assigned by Princess Huiming.

Main account.

Princess Huiming sat behind a long table, handling state affairs while listening to Ruolan's report.

After Ruolan finished her report, Princess Huiming paused slightly in her hand as she held the pen.

Holding her pen, she paused, then looked up thoughtfully and asked, "You mean... Cloud Cat retrieved two intelligence reports from the 'Shadow Division,' one about the 'Chaotic Western Capital' battlefield, and the other about Ghost Face's actions today?"

Ruolan bowed her head respectfully and replied, "Yes, Your Highness. Moreover... according to the Shadow Division member's account, Lord Silver Mask is even more concerned about today's battle."

"They even specifically inquired about the details of how you captured the God King of Shepherd Heart."

"After that... he asked about the details of Lord Ghostface's operation, but he didn't seem to care much."

"Hehe, this is interesting..." Princess Huiming's fingertips tapped lightly on the smooth table, producing a soft "tap, tap" sound. A subtle, unfathomable light flickered in her deep phoenix eyes...

Upon hearing Princess Huiming's words, Ruolan couldn't help but look at Huiming, tilting her head slightly, wanting to hear Huiming explain why it was interesting.

But Huiming seemed oblivious to her confusion, so he offered no explanation, instead falling into deeper thought...

.....

And so, several more hours passed.

The moon was high in the sky; it was time to go to sleep.

Having studied all the intelligence and made up his mind, Qiu Tu swayed and transformed back into the snow-white cat. Then, with elegant cat steps, he walked towards the main tent of Princess Huiming.

It wasn't that he wasn't afraid of death and went to provoke Princess Huiming again. The main thing was... Qiu Tu had just done some deduction and realized that with the clingy nature of the Cloud Cat God King, he would definitely pester Princess Huiming.

Although he has now initially cleared himself of suspicion, he must be extremely careful not to reveal the slightest flaw.

Therefore, he was forced to sleep with Princess Huiming.

They arrived outside Princess Huiming's main tent.

The curtains were tightly closed, but the light shining through them seemed especially warm in the cool night.

Qiu Tu did not go in immediately, but stopped outside the tent and listened intently.

It was very quiet inside, with only the soft sounds of breathing and the rustling of pages turning.

Qiu Tu meowed and gently nudged open a corner of the tent flap with its little head, then peeked inside.

Instantly, the aroma of a faint fragrance mixed with the scent of books and ink wafted into the tent.

Inside the tent, Princess Huiming was reclining on a large bed, wearing only a black silk nightgown, her long black hair cascading over her shoulders like a waterfall. She was quietly reading a book by the light of a bright crystal lamp by the bedside.

Her exquisite figure was faintly visible beneath the thin fabric, outlining breathtaking curves.

Hearing the cat meow, Princess Huiming raised her eyes, her cold gaze falling on Qiu Tu.

She paused, a hint of hesitation flashing in her eyes, but it vanished without a trace. She waved to Qiu Tu expressionlessly.

The movement was very natural, as if he had made up his mind.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu felt reassured. She walked over with light, cat-like steps, then leaped lightly onto the soft bed and nestled into Hui Ming's arms with practiced ease.

Princess Huiming's soft body stiffened slightly, but she still hugged him and placed him on her long legs. Then, she stroked Qiu Tu with one hand while continuing to hold the book with the other, her gaze returning to the pages.

Silence returned to the camp.

Qiu Tu lay on Hui Ming's lap, feeling its softness and warmth, a delicate fragrance lingering around his nose.

He tried to quietly turn around, wanting to see what book Huiming was reading.

As soon as he moved, he received a light but not heavy tap on his butt.

"Snapped."

The crisp sound was particularly clear in the quiet tent.

Although Qiu Tu was replicating the state of the Cloud Cat God King, as a grown man, he still couldn't help but stiffen and feel a little ashamed when a woman patted his butt.

Princess Huiming seemed oblivious to his embarrassment, simply pressing his restless body back onto her lap before continuing to silently read her book.

Princess Huiming read for another half hour before finally putting down the book, glancing down at Qiu Tu, and asking,

"After reviewing the intelligence for so long, do you have any ideas on how to clean up the mess for Ghost Face and how to recruit Qiu Tu?"

Perhaps because it was close to bedtime, Princess Huiming's voice lacked its usual majesty and instead sounded more languid.

Qiu Tu had been thinking about this question the most in his tent. So when he heard Princess Huiming's words, he gave his answer without any hesitation.

"Your Highness, I already have a preliminary plan."

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Hui ordered the princess to hug him again, then said "Oh?" and asked, "What plan?"

Qiu Tu organized his thoughts for a moment, and then spoke in the uniquely sweet and gentle voice of the Cloud Cat God King.

"Your Highness, actually... cleaning up the mess and reconnecting with Qiu Tu is quite simple."

"As long as... we cater to their preferences."

"Put yourself in their shoes?" Princess Huiming's eyes seemed thoughtful.

Qiu Tu, who had transformed into a white cat, nodded.

He looked at Huiming with his heterochromatic eyes, one gold and one blue, and said seriously, "Actually... it's still the plan that Ghost Face and I made before."

He said, "I have studied a lot of information about Qiu Tu. I found that although Qiu Tu is a deep and resourceful person, he has a very obvious weakness: he likes beautiful women."

Princess Huiming frowned slightly. "You like beautiful women?"

"Yes." Qiu Tu didn't hesitate to make fun of himself.

He said, "Based on my previous contact with him and analysis of all the information I have about him, I found that although he is a cautious person, he gives special treatment to beautiful women."

"Therefore, I think the Ghost Face God King's plan can be put back on the agenda."

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Princess Huiming couldn't help but recall the plan proposed by the Ghost-Faced God King, which she had seen in the memories of the "Cloud Cat God King"...
