Who is Lady Zhao?
She was Zhao Ji, who, even when she was a goddess, regarded all her peers as worthless and was confident that she was destined to be invincible!
So, she was only surprised for a brief moment. Then she looked at Qiu Tu.
Once she was certain that the fighting spirit and killing intent in the other's eyes were not a joke, a smile that could eclipse the heavens and earth slowly bloomed on Zhao Ji's exquisite face.
"really."
Her voice remained cool and aloof, yet it carried an undeniable confidence.
"Since someone has to start this great era of conflict, why can't it be us?"
The moment she finished speaking, the smile in her eyes vanished completely, replaced by utter calm.
"Since you've made up your mind, then let's... kill him!"
The three words were spoken with resounding force, as if the tyrant of destruction was nothing more than an ant that could be crushed at will.
Upon hearing Zhao Ji's words, Qiu Tu and she exchanged a knowing smile, their unspoken understanding unspoken.
The next second, they stood up at the same time, and then, with a flicker, they left the narrow space.
Above the vast, boundless golden desert, two figures appeared out of thin air, hovering side by side.
The golden sunlight bathed them in a divine glow, while the fierce wind whipped up yellow sand, creating huge whirlpools at their feet.
Although she had just set the goal of killing the Destruction Tyrant, when she actually began to prepare for the operation, Zhao Ji discovered that there were still two problems in order to kill the Destruction Tyrant.
So she couldn't help but turn to look at Qiu Tu beside her and ask, "Killing the Destruction Tyrant, no problem."
"But... he's hiding now, how do we find him?"
"Moreover, after our last encounter, he's likely to run away whenever he sees me now."
“I can’t let a high-level god-king who’s determined to escape stay.”
Upon hearing Zhao Ji's words, Qiu Tu couldn't help but smile.
He looked at Zhao Ji, a hint of confidence in his eyes.
"You're good at killing; but I'm good at everything else."
At this point, he blinked.
"As for these two questions, they are actually quite simple."
"We just need to find two outside helpers."
He paused, then added, "With these two outside helpers... we can also prevent the Heavenly Order from interfering again."
Upon hearing the word "foreign aid," a thoughtful expression appeared in Zhao Ji's eyes.
She looked at Qiu Tu, "Jasmine?"
“Hmm.” Qiu Tu nodded, then added, “...and Huiming.”
Upon hearing these two names, Zhao Ji's brows furrowed slightly.
She hesitated for a moment, then looked at Qiu Tu and said, "Their strength is indeed quite good."
"It can stop the tyrant from escaping, and it can also prevent Tianyan from intervening."
"But...it seems they can't find where the Destroyer Tyrant is hiding now, right?"
She paused for a moment, then analyzed,
"The Destruction Tyrant is severely injured this time and faces internal divisions within the 'Destruction Court,' so he will undoubtedly be extremely cautious."
"Therefore, he must be recuperating in a secret world unknown to anyone. And he will use every means to conceal his presence and the secrets of heaven."
"Although Jasmine's methods are strange, it is almost impossible to find him in a short period of time."
"As for Huiming... she has already turned against the Destruction Tyrant, so the Destruction Tyrant certainly won't go to the world she knows to recuperate."
Faced with Zhao Ji's doubts, Qiu Tu revealed a mysterious smile.
“That’s true,” he admitted.
"But..." Qiu Tu's eyes lit up, and he said with a grin, "How about we take a gamble?"
Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhao Ji couldn't help but glance at him, as if she had guessed something.
But instead of counting to three, she asked, "What are we betting on?"
When Qiu Tu saw that Zhao Ji did not draw her sword immediately, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
But he didn't let this good opportunity slip by. Instead, he coughed twice, moved closer to Zhao Ji, and lowered his voice to say...
“Sister Zhaoji, look, you are a high-level god-king, and I am a high-level god-king now too.”
"If... I could help you eliminate this nemesis, the Destroyer Tyrant, this time..."
He drawled, "Have you considered it...?"
The more Qiu Tu talked, the more vigilant he became, ready to flee at any moment!
To his surprise, despite his hints, Zhao Ji neither drew her sword nor showed any anger. In fact, her expression remained completely unchanged.
She glanced at Qiu Tu, then said coldly, "Let's talk about it after you're stronger than me."
After saying that, she ignored Qiu Tu's reaction, transformed into a streak of light, and flew towards Aria.
Qiu Tu hovered in place, watching Zhao Ji's rapidly receding figure, and blinked.
Wait a moment....
Did Zhao Ji just agree?
Qiu Tu is no novice who has never been in a relationship. Having lived two lives and possessing the "Emotional Handbook," he now has an almost uncanny understanding of women's psychology.
Don't look at what conditions a woman sets, but rather at what she agrees to.
Because... even if there are some "conditions" attached to what she agreed to,... an agreement is an agreement.
Even though her conditions were very strict, she was already mentally prepared to fulfill them the moment she agreed.
—From "The Emotional Handbook" [108 Ways to Enhance Relationships] No. 78.
P.S.: The premise is that this woman is a good woman, not a slut or a bad woman, and she doesn't like to make empty promises.
After mentally reviewing the "Emotional Handbook," Qiu Tu finally couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
Considering Zhao Ji's "fleeing in panic" state after speaking, Qiu Tu knew perfectly well that he had finally melted the iceberg in front of him!
All that's left is that shudder!
Although I don't know why Zehime suddenly had a change of heart, as long as it works out, that's all that matters!
Thinking this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but call out, "Sister Zhao Ji, wait for me!"
After saying that, he transformed into a streak of light and chased after it.
And so, the two streaks of light chased and overtook each other, quickly arriving in Aria...
.....
5 minute later.
In the Great Hall of Aria.
Jasmine sat upright on the throne, glaring hatefully at Zhao Ji and Qiu Tu beside her.

Chapter 977 Zhao Ji: I Like Him (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Jasmine leaned back on the throne, carefully scrutinizing Qiu Tu. She couldn't understand what was so good about this man before her? Why did Zhao Ji care so much about him?
So what if he's a little more talented? So what if he's a little stronger? So what if he's a little more handsome?
Why does Zehime like her so much?
Thinking this, Jasmine's gaze involuntarily drifted to Zhao Ji beside Qiu Tu again.
Even without using her divine sense to observe carefully, she could still catch, with her naked eyes, the fleeting, almost imperceptible tenderness in Zhao Ji's deep, cold eyes when she looked at Qiu Tu.
Clearly, Lady Zhao was truly moved.
It's highly likely that the two of them were flirting the whole way here.
This is completely different from Zehime's previous aloof and unapproachable demeanor.
'My precious little cabbage, which I've painstakingly nurtured for hundreds of years, has been ruined by this pig?'
As soon as this thought crossed Jasmine's mind, she felt a tightness in her chest and was on the verge of a breakdown!
Just as Jasmine was lost in thought, Qiu Tu finished explaining the purpose of his visit.
Jasmine forced herself to come back to her senses, shifting her gaze from Zhao Ji to Qiu Tu with a lazy look. Her large, almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a hint of scrutiny and displeasure.
She briefly recalled what Qiu Tu had just said, and then spoke.
"So, you mean to say..."
"You want me and Huiming to help you stop the Order of Heavenly Evolution and prevent the Tyrant of Destruction from escaping?"
She dragged out her words, but it was impossible to discern her true emotions.
"And you want me to persuade Lu Yao to help you find the hiding place of the Destroyer Tyrant?"
Indeed, Qiu Tu was so certain that he could find the Destruction Tyrant because he knew that the God King Lu Yao was in Jasmine's hands.
The God-King Lu Yao possesses the ability to see the life energy of living beings. Therefore... no matter how other deities try to eliminate their aura or conceal their cause and effect, they cannot escape her precise location.
This is why Qiu Tu is so certain that he can find the tyrant to destroy.
That's why his first stop was Aria, to see Jasmine.
However, although Qiu Tu also wanted to use Lu Yao God King's abilities, he didn't need Jasmine to persuade him, just as she had thought.
That would be too troublesome and too unpredictable.
So, Qiu Tu looked at Jasmine, who was leaning against the magnificent throne, her bare legs swaying gently in the air, and said with a smile.
“Jasmine, I do need to use the power of God King Lu Yao to find the Tyrant of Destruction.”
"But you don't need to do any ideological work for her."
Qiu Tu's gaze was calm and confident, as if he had everything under control.
"You just need to hand her over to me, and I'll take care of the rest."
After saying that, he looked at Jasmine and said, neither humbly nor arrogantly,
"Besides, we're not here to ask for your help."
"To some extent, the reason we are where we are today, and the situation on the ancient continent has become what it is today, is actually... all because of your behind-the-scenes manipulation."
"All of this is what you wanted most."
"So... let's join forces, Jasmine. Eliminating the Destruction Tyrant will benefit you, us, and all your plans."
Qiu Tu's words were reasonable, logical, and insightful, and he even saw through Jasmine's ulterior motives. Unfortunately... Jasmine's mind was clearly elsewhere.
Her gaze remained fixed on Zhao Ji the entire time.
Clearly, for her, Zehime was more important than her plans.
So, upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Jasmine simply waved her hand absentmindedly and said irritably,
"Okay, okay, I got it, I'll take the test..."
She was halfway through her sentence when, as if suddenly remembering something, she snapped back to reality.
She paused for a moment, then looked at Qiu Tu, her eyes darting around, and suddenly a signature, harmless, sweet smile appeared on her face.
Then she said, "Actually... I can grant your request."
"but....."
She changed the subject with a grin and said, "I have a condition."
Hearing her words, Qiu Tu frowned slightly, then asked warily, "What are the conditions?"
