Then let them offer their loyalty!

Therefore, she originally thought that her emotions could not be affected by an ordinary human being.

After all, in her eyes, the human in front of her wasn't exactly honest; he always seemed to have ulterior motives. He rarely spoke the truth.

You can just listen to it casually.

As a result, she was still stunned when she heard the human in front of her say such an explosive topic.

Had he/she had an affair with... this weak, ant-like human in front of him?

How could he dare to fabricate such a lie?

Is he really not afraid of being slapped to death?

Thinking this, Zhao Ji's already icy eyes grew even colder.

She gave Qiu Tu a deep look. In just one glance, Qiu Tu felt as if the blood in his body had frozen, and its flow slowed to an unbearable degree.

His body became incredibly stiff, all his joints felt rusty, and every movement was extremely difficult...

Seeing that Zhao Ji was angry, Qiu Tu quickly called out, "Sister Yueyue, please calm down! It wasn't me, it was Princess La Riluo who said that!"

“Hehe…” Zhao Ji responded to Qiu Tu’s explanation with a cold laugh.

Just then, Qiu Tu raised his right hand with difficulty and swore, "If Princess La Ri Luo didn't call me brother-in-law, if she didn't suspect that I had an affair with Princess Zhao Ji, may I be struck by lightning!"

To reiterate... in a world where the mind can influence the real world, the Cataclysmic Oath is effective.

Therefore, unless what is said is the truth, or at least what one believes to be the truth, one would not dare to swear an oath.

Therefore, upon seeing Qiu Tu, they were surprised that he actually dared to make an oath, and that the oath was so accurate and clear.

Zhao Ji hesitated noticeably in the darkness. Then she stopped freezing Qiu Tu.

Qiu Tu breathed a sigh of relief as he felt the chill recede from his body.

He rubbed his hands and stamped his feet to warm his body, which had almost frozen solid.

Just then, Zhao Ji slowly asked, "Why does she suspect?"

Zeji's voice was like a clear stream in the forest, crisp and moving.

Qiu Tu dared to bring up this topic, so he must have had a foolproof plan. Therefore, he explained without any hesitation,

"Because... I only found Princess Lariro after I met you."

"At that time, I must have been covered in your scent."

"But...I don't know."

"Furthermore, I know that Your Highness has some conflicts and misunderstandings with you. So... when Your Highness inquired about it, I lied."

"This is the first time His Highness has doubted me."

"After that... in order to help Your Highness return to the Boundless Heart Sea, I secretly used the summoning coins you gave me last time to contact Colonel Wu of the Allied Special Forces."

"As a result... Her Highness discovered it again, which aroused her suspicion once more."

At this point, Qiu Tu's acting skills exploded, perfectly portraying the image of a wronged and sad man.

He said, "Perhaps... Your Highness feels insecure now because of your fall."

“She has been paranoid ever since then.”

"So, when I realized she had become suspicious of us, I took the initiative to tell her the whole story."

"But... by then she no longer believed me."

"That's why, when the situation in the New Territories changed drastically and we needed your help, she didn't want to come to see you and instead asked me to come alone."

"Before I left, she repeatedly told me not to tell you where she was going."

"Otherwise, she will simply run away from home, making it impossible for you and me to find her again."

Zeki in the Darkness: ......

To be honest, although Qiu Tu's story was bizarre, it was very much in line with La Riluo's unconventional and willful personality.

So Zhao Ji didn't question it outright. Instead, she remained silent for a few seconds before slowly asking, "What trouble have you encountered?"

Upon hearing Zhao Ji's words, Qiu Tu finally began to talk about the purpose of his visit.

He said, "Sister Yueyue, it's other deities! At least two deities have invaded the New Territories!"

"One of the deities' visions was a whale's tail, and the other deity's vision was two moons."

"They lurk in the darkness, and Princess Larilu and I dare not venture into the Boundless Heart Sea, nor even move around much..."

"Whales and twin moons...hehe...."

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhao Ji, who was hidden in the darkness, chuckled softly and then waved her hand gently.

The next second, a fragment of a body made of green crystal suddenly appeared at Qiu Tu's feet...

The body fragment was half of a person's body. There was exposed flesh and blood, and the right arm was still attached to the body.

The entire body was incredibly lifelike, as if it were still alive. It emanated a powerful aura of a high-level being.

Although the oppressive aura had weakened somewhat because the body's original owner was dead, Qiu Tu could still easily sense the other party's rank from the tremors emanating from his own soul...

A fourth-order evil god, and most likely a peak fourth-order evil god!

So... this is the "Boundless Divine Crystal"?!

Boundless Divine Crystal is one of the most precious and highest-grade materials for catastrophic events. It is formed from the pure and extremely high-ranking catastrophic power within the body of an evil god after its fall.

It has many uses.

Moreover, this "Boundless Divine Crystal" cannot be preserved in any size that matches the size of one's body.

Instead, it will rapidly shrink and condense after the fall of the evil god.

It's possible that a fourth-tier evil god can only condense a boundless divine crystal the size of a pillow.

When Liu Xiongyuan and his two companions killed La Riluo, they also obtained a crystallized divine body.

Liu Xiongyuan even left some for Qiu Tu, which he secretly gave to Qiu Tu when they met in the New Territories the day before yesterday.

But... it's only about the size of a fist.

Qiu Tu didn't know what to do with this precious disaster material, so he stored it in his "Gold-Eating Wallet".

Unexpectedly, before he even used the divine crystal, he obtained another one, and... it was so big and of such high quality.

Thinking this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but point to the body crystal and ask, "Sister Yueyue... what is this?"

Zhao Ji coldly explained, "This is a peak fourth-tier deity that I just killed."

"His death and my own linger on it."

Zehime spoke very little, and it even seemed like she liked to stop halfway through her sentences.

However, Qiu Tu understood the implied meaning: it carried the fresh aura of Zhao Ji's recent slaying of a peak fourth-tier evil god. Even the boldest of the other evil gods wouldn't dare provoke her at this time!

This is a tiger using its killing intent to intimidate the wolves!

Thinking this through, Qiu Tu's mind raced, and he felt that... although it didn't achieve the effect he wanted most, it was still not bad.

At least he accomplished the purpose of his visit.

Thinking about this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but recall his entire mental journey.

In fact, Qiu Tu had already realized he was caught between two major forces when he was discussing how to deal with the evil god with Qin Shuman outside Tang Feifei's office.

The shelter side believed he was an evil god and prepared to deal with him; while the evil god side, regardless of who he was, also wanted to deal with him.

In this situation, he became the sandwich filling.

Therefore, he first reassured Qin Shuman and Tang Feifei from the shelter, so that the shelter would not immediately deal with him, thus buying himself some time.

Next, he had to deal with the evil god.

His current relationship with the evil god is: he is in the light, and the evil god is in the dark.

He didn't dare to venture into the boundless sea of ​​his mind to search for the regional central hub.

Because those evil gods are probably watching him from the shadows, waiting for him to find the location of the central hub first...

Therefore, he must first scare away those evil gods before he can obtain the regional central hub without worry!

This requires leveraging the power of Zhao Ji, the great evil god who controls eight regions of the Boundless Heart Sea!

If we can provoke her to take action, then those evil gods will most likely not dare to engage in direct conflict and will retreat!

Even if she can't take action herself, if Qiu Tu can obtain her personal items or have her aura on him, it should be enough to make those evil gods retreat!

Qiu Tu doesn't need much time; just two or three days, or even... one day, after those evil gods retreat! Then he can safely go to the regional central hub!

Now... with the Boundless Divine Crystal, imbued with Zhao Ji's aura and belonging to a peak fourth-tier evil god, those evil gods should be on guard for a short time and dare not follow or attack Qiu Tu.

After all... although evil gods are "gods", they still retain the concept of biological territory.

Previously, Zhao Ji had already used her aura to declare that New Territories City was her territory—but because everyone knew that she had taken it for her sister, the deterrent effect was low, which is why some fearless people came to try.

But now that Zehime has once again demonstrated her power through bloodshed, those evil gods who were already somewhat timid may be intimidated again, thus becoming hesitant and fearful...

And that was Qiu Tu's opportunity!

After reviewing the entire plan in his mind, Qiu Tu picked up the "Boundless Divine Crystal" and sincerely thanked Zhao Ji, "Thank you, Sister Yueyue! With this, I believe we can scare away those villains!"

"And Your Highness will then be able to regain your strength."

As he spoke the last sentence, Qiu Tu remained vigilant, not wanting to miss any unusual sounds.

Unfortunately, the Lady of the Moon, hidden in the darkness, did not reveal anything unusual.

She gave a faint "hmm".

Qiu Tu: .....

Qiu Tu's mind raced for a moment, then he continued tentatively, "Sister Yueyue, do you have any messages for His Highness?"

Zhao Ji was silent for two seconds, then coldly uttered two words, "No."

Qiu Tu: .....

To be honest, Qiu Tu wasn't just making conversation for the sake of it.

However, his forte lies in understanding people's hearts. But understanding people's hearts has a major drawback: you have to really understand a person's personality and traits in order to "model their personality" before you can start a targeted strategy.

Therefore, only by letting Zhao Ji talk more and extracting as much information as possible from her words to understand her personality can Qiu Tu gradually subdue this powerful evil god.

However, Zhao Ji is now clearly very wary of him and is unwilling to say anything.

So... we have to think of another way.

Thinking this, Qiu Tu hesitated for a moment, then went through the whole process of his two meetings with Zhao Ji.

Then he gritted his teeth and decided to take the risk.

So, he smiled and said to Zhao Ji in the darkness, "Your Highness, you still don't talk much."

“I remember when I was taking a bath with Xiaola, she said to me, ‘You’ve never liked to talk.’”

"Oh, by the way, you know what? She has a mole below her left breast, it's really cute, it's heart-shaped. She also said that you..."

At this point, Qiu Tu remained fully vigilant.

But there was still no response.

Qiu Tu sighed inwardly, then changed the subject, "She said that when you gave Da Tou a second life, you named her 'Yi Yi,' but she thought it sounded bad, so she changed her name to Da Tou."

Zehime in the Darkness: ....

Watching the man at her feet, who claimed to be her brother-in-law, perform with great enthusiasm, Zeji's eyes were like the flowing glaciers of the Arctic, devoid of joy or sorrow.

She listened to him ramble on and on about a bunch of random things, then with a wave of her hand, she banished the man from her divine realm.

Watching the man's departing figure, Zhao Ji chuckled softly, "Interesting..."

"Let's make things more interesting..."

As she spoke, she extended her snow-white finger and gently touched it.

The next second, a multicolored stream of light entered the "Boundless Divine Crystal" in Qiu Tu's hand...

Having done all this, Zhao Ji rose, the nine points of starlight on her forehead illuminating, and her piercing gaze once more turned eastward, to the very center of her boundless sea of ​​consciousness...

.....
