Upon hearing Princess Huiming's words, Qiu Tu was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "What do you mean... no one has seen the Bone God King again?"

Through the curtain, Huiming said solemnly, "It means exactly what it says."

"Since then, the Bone God King has never appeared again."

"God-King Lu Yao said that she had healed God-King Ku Gu's injuries and sent him away."

"The 'Immortal Heavenly Tomb' says that the Bone God King never returned."

"At the time, because of the good reputation of the Life Path, the 'Immortal Heavenly Tomb' did not suspect God-King Lu Yao, but instead felt that the 'Temple of Order' was the most likely suspect."

"They suspect that the Temple of Order somehow learned about God-King Luyao healing God-King Kugu."

"So they ambushed him halfway. They either killed the Bone God King or imprisoned him."

"Therefore... the 'Immortal Tomb' mobilized its entire forces to engage in a decisive battle with the 'Temple of Order.'"

At this point, even Princess Huiming, known for her ruthlessness, showed a slight fluctuation in her eyes.

She paused for a moment before continuing, "Back then... the entire 'Ancient Continent' was almost completely shattered, countless worlds were destroyed, and countless gods and god-kings perished."

"This can be said to be the largest war in nearly 10,000 years."

"In the end... it even provoked the 'Order of Heaven' to suffer. My father and the Witch of Chaos intervened to balance things out, which finally allowed both sides to sit down and negotiate peacefully."

"During the negotiations, King Mitchell of the Temple of Order swore an oath to the Origin of the World on behalf of the Temple of Order, stating that the Temple of Order had never intercepted or killed King of the Bone God."

"This is why the high-level god-kings of the five major paths began to cast suspicious glances at God-King Lu Yao."

"When a high-ranking god-king questioned God-King Lu Yao, Lu Yao still vehemently denied it."

"But when someone asked her to swear an oath before the 'origin of the world,' she refused, saying there were special reasons why she couldn't swear."

"Although she has been denying it..., everyone still speculates that the Bone God King was most likely murdered, and the murderer is the Deer Yao God King who has been disguised for nearly a thousand years."

"However... the life path is, after all, one of the six major paths, and it is closely related to the other five."

"Furthermore, the 'Immortal Heavenly Tomb' has just fought a major battle with the 'Temple of Order,' leaving it severely weakened. In addition, God-King Lu Yao denies ever doing this, so the 'Immortal Heavenly Tomb' has no way to pursue the matter further."

"And so... just like that, a high-level god-king disappeared without a trace."

"It hasn't been found yet..."

At this point, the curtain separating Qiu Tu and Princess Huiming was gently lifted by a slender, white hand.

Princess Huiming had changed into a black robe with silver patterns. Her long hair was tied up with a simple star hairpin, which made her neck look even longer and gave her a cool and noble temperament.

"You know what happened next. Because of this great war, both the 'Temple of Order' and 'Immortal Tomb' factions were severely weakened, while the Chaos faction emerged victorious, becoming the ultimate winner of the last 'Path of Reincarnation' war."

"In addition, the Chaos faction's unique inclusive nature has led to its rapid development over the past millennium."

"The Chaos Witch has thus become the strongest person in the entire 'Ancient Continent.'"

At this point, Princess Huiming walked out from behind the curtain barefoot, her snow-white ankles peeking out from under her black skirt.

She walked up to Qiu Tu, her deep phoenix eyes looking at him. "And even after a thousand years, the truth of this matter remains unknown to this day."

"Some say... it was the 'Witch of Chaos' who orchestrated this scheme behind the scenes. After all, the Witch of Chaos was the ultimate beneficiary of that great war."

"Some say... it was the 'Temple of Order' that was behind it."

"Because only God-King Mitchell swore an oath at the time, and... he only dared to swear that he did not 'intercept and kill' God-King Skeleton."

"But that doesn't mean this wasn't orchestrated by the 'Temple of Order'."

"However, the Temple of Order probably didn't expect the Immortal Tomb to be so resolute, directly initiating a final battle."

"As the fighting progressed, they themselves suffered heavy losses and were in a difficult situation, unable to back down and unable to admit defeat."

"Some people say... that all of this was the work of God-King Lu Yao."

"She's a real vile woman, the Black Widow."

"She disguised herself for a thousand years, just to devour a god-king on the path to immortality."

"Because... the 'Life Path' is inherently opposed to the 'Immortal Path.' And the fusion of the two is very likely the key for the 'Life Path' to reach the highest realm."

"The proponents of these three conjectures all have their own reasons."

"For example, in the last 'War of Reincarnation,' despite being so badly tricked by the God-King Lu Yao, the 'Temple of Order' still chose to join forces with the 'Life Faction' in this War of Reincarnation."

"For example... God-King Lu Yao is indeed extremely dedicated to embarking on the path to the supreme. Just like this time... as soon as she heard that a new deity with a new path of destruction had embarked on the path to the supreme, she immediately rushed over."

"Clearly...of all the high-level god-kings in the entire 'Eternal Continent,' she is the most interested in this new god-king who has embarked on the path to supreme power."

"She came to the 'Royal Court,' most likely to inquire about the new God-King."

Chapter 955 Lu Yao: I Know Everything (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Upon hearing Princess Huiming's words, Qiu Tu was slightly startled.

Is Lu Yao, the God-King, actually the God-King most interested in embarking on the path to supreme power throughout the entire "Ancient Continent"?

In other words, her ultimate goal in this trip to "destroy the royal court" was most likely herself and Consort Zhao.

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu immediately felt that coming to see Princess Huiming tonight was worthwhile, even just for this piece of information.

Previously, Qiu Tu had only regarded the visit of God-King Lu Yao as a trivial matter, but now it seems that he almost underestimated his opponent.

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu felt a chill run down his spine again, and his thoughts began to wander further...

After all... he hadn't forgotten this God-King Lu Yao, who was suspected of having contacted La Ri Luo some time ago.

More importantly, Qiu Tu also remembered... hundreds of years ago, there was a god-king in the path of life who helped the witch of chaos, causing Zhao Ji to give up the path of life.

Previously, Qiu Tu hadn't thought about it too deeply. He only felt that the reason why the God of Life helped the Chaos Witch was probably because he had a close relationship with the Chaos Witch, or because he was coerced and enticed by the Chaos Witch.

However, considering what Princess Huiming said, Qiu Tu suddenly felt that... if the God King of Life back then was indeed God King Luyao, perhaps the other party saw Zhaoji's potential and was worried that Zhaoji would compete with him for the supreme God King position in the path of life, which is why he took the initiative to make a move.

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu was startled again.

This conjecture struck him like a lightning bolt, instantly connecting all the clues.

If it was indeed the God-King Lu Yao who came into contact with Zhao Ji back then...

Therefore, the other party's contact with Lariluo some time ago was 100% for ulterior motives.

It's very likely that this was a scheme they set up hundreds of years ago, and now they're starting to reap the rewards.

Thinking about it this way... the possibility that the Chaos Witch was the mastermind behind everything a thousand years ago is greatly increased.

Just then, as Qiu Tu's thoughts were racing, the majestic voice of Princess Huiming rang in his ears again, pulling him back from his reverie.

"It was from that incident that the credibility of the Life Pathway plummeted and has not recovered to this day. Other pathways can no longer unconditionally trust the Life Pathway."

Her tone was calm, but her gaze was extremely serious.

"However... no matter what, Lu Yao is, after all, a high-level God-King, a giant of life."

"Without evidence proving that she is indeed the murderer, and without her admitting it, no channel, whether overt or through intelligence agencies, can record in writing that she is the murderer."

Princess Huiming's face was almost expressionless, revealing a hint of coldness. "After all... once a traitor or spy leaks information, it will give Lu Yao a pretext."

"Furthermore... the relationship between the high-level God-King and the 'Origin of the World' is already incredibly close."

"No one can guarantee that recording such an important matter without evidence will not trigger Lu Yao's senses."

"Therefore, this information has generally only been passed down orally among the upper echelons over the past thousand years. Even the Shadow Division has not made any records of it."

As she spoke, she waved her hand, and an intelligence document made of parchment appeared out of thin air in her palm.

She handed the documents to Qiu Tu, saying, "These are her other documents; you can take a closer look later."

"In short... Tomorrow, you must be wary of this woman and not be fooled by her appearance."

Upon hearing Princess Huiming's words, Qiu Tu reached out and took the documents. The parchment felt cool to the touch, and the cover was covered with dense runes, indicating that it had been encrypted.

Holding the documents in his hand, Qiu Tu nodded solemnly without saying much, but the seriousness in his eyes spoke volumes.

Princess Huiming seemed quite satisfied with his attitude at the moment, so upon seeing this, she nodded slightly and said nothing more.

Then she turned and walked to the long table in her bedchamber, where she continued to deal with the mountain of official business.

She was extremely focused when handling official business, and the entire study fell into that familiar, reassuring silence once again, with only the occasional soft sound of her turning the pages of documents.

Upon seeing this, Qiu Tu inquired with the Cloud Cat God King in the "Punishment God Realm" about what he should do in this situation.

With the small whip and the "Order Space" at his beck and call, the Cloud Cat God King had no way to hide it. Then... after a moment, Qiu Tu's body subtly transformed into the form of a cat.

Then he walked to Princess Huiming's side, and with a light leap, jumped onto her soft, warm legs, and found a comfortable position to lie down.

He held the soft, fragrant body in his arms, but at this moment, he had no romantic thoughts. He laid the document flat on the shapely thighs of Princess Huiming, covered by a black python robe, and then immersed his spiritual sense into it, beginning to read carefully...

And so, with beautiful women by her side, time flew by.

It wasn't until Princess Huiming finished her official duties, stood up from her chair, and picked him up along with the document that Qiu Tu suddenly came to his senses and realized that it was already late at night.

"Finished reading?" Princess Huiming looked down at him.

Qiu Tu nodded, and with a thought, handed the documents back to her.

Princess Huiming took the documents, casually turned them into dust, and then carried Qiu Tu into the depths of the palace.

It must be said that Qiu Tu is very dedicated when he is doing serious work.

Perhaps because the God King Lu Yao was a bit too dangerous, even though Princess Huiming held him in her arms tonight, put his head in the middle, and cuddled him to sleep, Qiu Tu didn't feel anything at all.

With his head resting on Princess Huiming, Qiu Tu could clearly feel her warmth and the rise and fall of her body with her breathing.

A warm breath brushed against his cat ears, carrying a faint fragrance. Qiu Tu couldn't help but turn his head to glance at Princess Huiming.

As a result, his nose and mouth were immediately enveloped in that exquisite warmth and fragrance.

Suppressing his impulse, Qiu Tu turned his head back, then began to replay all the information he had seen about God King Lu Yao that evening in his mind, forcing himself to calm down.

Gradually, his heart truly calmed down completely.

And so, with his head resting on the sweet, soft skin of Princess Huiming, Qiu Tu's heart had already flown to God-King Lu Yao...

In a way, how could he not have successfully survived the "honey trap"?

And so, the night passed without further incident.

The next day, Qiu Tu put on the silver mask, transformed back into the Silver-Masked God King, left the Princess's Palace, and returned to the Shadow Division.

Another hour passed, and Qiu Tu, leading the Shadow Division's elite troops who had assembled and were silently awaiting orders on the training ground, transformed into streaks of light and headed towards the "World Passage"...

.........

In fact, while looking at Lu Yao's information last night, Qiu Tu had simulated many scenarios of meeting Lu Yao.

Even after mentally preparing himself, when Qiu Tu actually saw the God-King Lu Yao, the words Princess Huiming had told him still echoed in his ears: "Don't be deceived by her appearance..."

This... it's really hard not to be confused.

Thinking this, Qiu Tu's gaze fell on God King Lu Yao once again.

Today, the Goddess Lu Yao wore a long black dress, simple in style and without any superfluous decorations, yet it accentuated her snow-white skin. A few strands of hair fell beside her cheeks, adding a touch of gentle grace.

Her appearance isn't the kind that immediately takes your breath away, but it's extremely pleasing to the eye. Her features are soft, and together they give off a comfortable, gentle, and wifely vibe.

But what's most striking is her eyes.

Qiu Tu had seen many women with beautiful eyes, but Lu Yao, the Goddess of the Deer, was the most beautiful. Her eyes were as clear as those of a newborn fawn, without a trace of impurity.

Deep within his pupils, it seemed as if billions of stars were slowly burning, bright and warm, making one unconsciously want to get close and trust him.

Qiu Tu is not someone who judges people by their appearance, and he knows that the more beautiful a woman is, the more dangerous she is.

But... to be honest, he really found it hard to connect the woman in front of him with the ruthless, cunning Black Widow, the venomous woman he had read about in the files.

Moreover... when Qiu Tu arrived with the elite of the "Shadow Division", she, as a high-level God-King, actually stood at the entrance of the delegation's camp and took the initiative to come out to greet them.

"This must be the Silver-Masked God King who commands the Shadow Division, right?"

The voice of the God-King Lu Yao was gentle and soothing, making it extremely pleasant to listen to. "Lu Yao of the 'Life Faction,' I apologize for this intrusion."

She adopted a very humble posture, without any of the arrogance of a high-ranking god-king, but rather like a weak young woman who needed to be taken care of.

Combined with her all-black attire, Qiu Tu suddenly understood why the other god-kings had given her the nickname "Black Widow".

She's not just a widow, she's even more like one...
