Then let them offer their loyalty!

Page 772

Some third- or fourth-tier cataclysmic beings in the distance didn't even have time to cry out before they were directly engulfed and shattered by the surging waves of cataclysmic power, perishing instantly.

The "isolated mountain range" beside him began to tremble incessantly, and huge rocks started to fall down with a "crashing" sound.

His single strike seemed to shake the world.

The power of a peak eighth-tier cultivator is terrifying!

As a result, at this critical moment, Doris acted as if nothing had happened. The spatial turbulence around her was like a quiet stream. She let out a silvery laugh, and then, like a light nightingale, she pushed off with her hand and leaped.

Using Kabane's fist as a fulcrum, he flipped and danced, finally landing on Kabane's fist.

The fist that Kabane swung forward didn't hit her; instead, it seemed to propel her forward and become a prop for her dance.

However, she also clearly realized that the Kabane were genuinely angry.

So, after dodging that fierce attack, she lightly leaped into the air, barefoot, and then giggled, saying, "Kagoo, you still have such a bad temper. Hehehe."

"Calm down first. Next week, I'll be at the agreed time and place, and then we'll take down the 'Isolation Mountain' together."

She was barefoot, with a silver chain around her ankles, from which hung several silver bells.

Her movements produced a pleasant bell sound.

Then, without any visible movement, her figure vanished into thin air.

Upon witnessing this scene, the Kabane and Apocalypse: .....

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!" Kabane was about to explode with rage. His eyes were bloodshot, and the fat on his face looked like it was about to fly off!

"I'll fuck this woman to death sooner or later!"

Upon hearing his words, Apocalypse silently stepped aside, indicating that the statement had nothing to do with him.

And...actually, he felt that Doris was right; the leaders of the four major powers in the four divine kingdoms were indeed all a bit abnormal. Well...except for him.

Ah... the old days were so much better.

Thinking this, Tianqi's gaze became somewhat distant, as if piercing through layers of space to see Zhao Ji.

Actually... his promise to the Kabane to demolish the "Isolation Mountains" ahead of schedule was not for the reason he just mentioned.

To some extent, a large part of the reason he demolished the "isolated mountain range" was because of Zehime.

Just as Doris said, once the "Isolation Mountain Range" collapses and the two realms merge, the four God-Kings will have a way to intervene in the "Trial of the Gods".

In the past, he certainly wouldn't have wanted the Four Great Gods to get involved.

After all, he was a thorn in the side of the "Western God King," and he would most likely not benefit from the God King's intervention.

But things are different now... Now Zehime is alive, and she's competing for the "rank of a god".

Compared to someone as insignificant as herself, Zhao Ji's grudges with the Four Great Gods were far deeper.

When the God-King descends, I will certainly not be his primary target.

Moreover... Tianqi wasn't idle during his time away from the "Northwest Region." He had already secretly informed the "Western God King" of Zhao Ji's resurrection.

Although the "Western God King" gave him no reply, Apocalypse clearly sensed that the number of spies from the "Western God Kingdom" traveling to and from the "Isolated Mountains" was increasing a hundredfold...

To be honest, even Tianqi was curious about what a spectacular scene it would be if the "Isolation Mountain Range" collapsed and Zhao Ji clashed with the Four Great God-Kings...

......

at the same time.

Qiu Tu was unaware that the collapse of the "isolated mountain range" involved so many forces and so much power struggle.

At this moment, he was carrying out his plan step by step.

With the Emperor's cooperation, it would be quite easy for the history books to record the great battle between Zhao Ji and "Siyuan Pavilion".

At the time, many people knew that it was a conflict between Zhao Ji and "Siyuan Pavilion" that occurred, after which the members of "Siyuan Pavilion" perished.

However... no one knows how the high-ranking members of "Siyuan Pavilion" perished. Nor did anyone witness who killed them.

In this situation, Qiu Tu had a lot of room to maneuver.

So when he was "writing the script" for the Emperor, he simply altered the facts.

In the new story, the members of Siyuan Pavilion are still hunting down "Zhao Ji", but unexpectedly they encounter the "Wuyin Society", who also have ulterior motives.

A conflict broke out between the two sides, escalating into a fierce battle. This led to the downfall of the "Tree Ancestor" and his companions.

Qiu Tu unintentionally saved Manhuang and Shuxia. At the time, Manhuang was still in a barely holding-up state, and after leaving this video, she fell into a deep sleep.

Although Shuxia's soul fell into a deep sleep from the beginning, it may have woken up earlier because her soul was relatively intact.

This kind of rhetoric might be hard to fool some experts, but it should be enough to fool Shu Xia.

Of course, to make the whole story more believable, after recording the image of the Manhuang, Qiu Tu did not give the "record stone" directly to Shuxia, but placed it in his study and labeled it with relevant information.

Later, Qiu Tu created an opportunity for Shu Xia to go to his study, where he eventually discovered the "photograph stone" by chance.

Everyone has curiosity. After discovering that the stone might be related to the deaths of her father and brother, Shika couldn't resist the temptation and secretly looked at the images in the "photo stone".

Thus, the "truth" of the matter came to light.

Although he couldn't quite understand why his sister-in-law in the video looked so much like his benefactor's "woman".

Could it be... that my sister-in-law is actually two-timing me?

Or perhaps... he betrayed his elder brother and got involved with his benefactor?

Because there was too little information, Shuxia had no way of determining which was the truth.

But... it is precisely this unrevealed mystery and blank space that makes Shuxia even more convinced of the authenticity of this image.

Qiu Tu remained hidden to the side throughout, silently observing all the changes in Shu Xia.

In those few short minutes, Shuxia's loyalty rose from 65 to 72, then dropped to 66, and finally rose back to 70 and stabilized.

This also reveals his intense psychological state.

After confirming that Shuxia was finally available, Qiu Tu gradually began to give him freedom and help him connect with "Siyuan Pavilion".

Soon, Shuxia reconnected with "Siyuan Pavilion" and began communicating again....

Of course, all of this was under the surveillance of Qiu Tu's direct subordinates, the "Northwest Shelter - Ministry of the Interior".

.....

Two more days passed.

On the third day, just as Qiu Tu was listening to the "Ministry of the Interior" report on monitoring Shu Xia's situation, he received an unexpected message.

He glanced at the capable-looking woman standing in front of him and then asked, "Does Li Feng, representing the 3rd and 4th Shelter, wish to meet with me?"

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, the capable woman replied without a smile, "Yes, sir. Commander Li Feng relayed the message to Minister Guan."

"However, she had already arrived in our 'Northwest Region' when she made the request for a meeting."

Upon hearing his female confidante's words, Qiu Tu frowned slightly, then a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes. With his keen intuition, he almost instantly guessed Li Fenglai's purpose.

However, whether this is indeed his guess or not still needs to be verified.

Moreover, regardless of this, although the Northwest Sanctuary has become independent, it is still a member of the "human camp." Since Li Feng has come to find him, he has every right and obligation to meet her.

So Qiu Tu nodded, "Okay. Let Li Feng in."

"Yes, sir."

After saluting Qiu Tu, the female confidante turned and left. A short while later, she returned with Li Feng to Qiu Tu's office.

Today, Li Feng was still wearing a black armor. The armor outlined her exquisite figure and upright posture.

Coupled with her short, ear-length hair, she looked dashing and fiery.

Upon entering the office, Li Feng bowed slightly to Qiu Tu and said, "Lord Qiu, it's been a long time."

After saying that, she glanced at her departing female confidante out of the corner of her eye, and then said frankly, "This time, I came to see you for only one purpose."

“We, the Third Shelter and the Fourth Shelter, want to join your cause.”

Although he had already guessed this possibility, Qiu Tu was still slightly surprised when he heard Li Feng make this request in person.

However, he did not easily show his emotions. Instead, he looked at Li Feng with a neutral gaze and said, "Commander Li Feng, this is not a funny joke."

"Are you... serious?"

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Li Feng forced a smile and said, "It seems... Yan Yan was right. Lord Qiu really wants to see my sincerity."

As she spoke, she reached for the edge of her armor and with a slight effort, the pieces of armor came off, revealing her body, which was only covered by her underwear.

This time, Qiu Tu really didn't react and just stood there, stunned, forgetting to call a halt.

It wasn't until Li Feng removed her armor and began to undress that he snapped out of his daze and hurriedly reached out, saying, "Wait a minute! Commander Li Feng, what are you doing!"

Chapter 664 The Second Shelter is Playing a Big Game

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Li Feng was taken aback. Then she raised her head, her spirited eyes looking at Qiu Tu, and said, "Isn't this a tradition from your hometown?"

Honestly, Qiu Tu wanted to call the police right then and there. Who on earth is smearing his hometown's reputation?

But before he could speak, Li Feng said, "It was Yan Yan who said it."

After saying that, she probably realized something was wrong. She clutched her chest and said suspiciously, "Could it be... that this is a custom from your hometown?"

Qiu Tu was about to clarify some things about his hometown when Li Feng suddenly spoke up, "But Yan Yan doesn't seem to be lying to me. She even gave some examples."

"For example, Princess Xi, and Su Wanqing."

Li Feng narrowed her eyes and looked sharply at Qiu Tu, "Didn't you only accept them after they pledged their loyalty to you?"

Qiu Tu's expression froze. This Yan Yan, just to help him appease the woman, she told everyone everything.

However, Qiu Tu recalled that Yan Yan hadn't actually lied to Li Feng. Because when he was deceiving Su Wanqing and Princess Xi, he had indeed said that "offering loyalty" was a tradition of his hometown. (Chapters 617, 624)

At the time, Qiu Tu thought it was just a romantic evening game and never expected it to backfire on her.

Just then, as Qiu Tu was thinking this, Li Feng continued,

"Yan Yan said that although you seem gentle and easygoing, and treat your subordinates very well, you actually have a line in your heart."

"You actually know very clearly who your own people are and who are outsiders."

"It is actually very difficult for someone to get into your heart."

"It requires a great deal of energy and effort."

"What's even more troublesome is that you are now the master of the three great sanctuaries, surrounded by elite troops and generals."

"You can't give newcomers enough time."

"That's why she suggested that I just take the shortcut."

Upon hearing Li Feng's words, Qiu Tu was momentarily speechless.

It has to be said that although Yan Yan is a bit weak in strength, she really inherited Yan Chen's intelligence. She sees through Qiu Tu completely.

Qiu Tu is indeed someone who appears carefree and indifferent on the surface, but in reality, he has a very strict sense of personal relationships.

He knew perfectly well who was important and who wasn't.

Now, he is surrounded by beautiful women and has many elite soldiers, leaving very few opportunities for newcomers.

Therefore, if you want to quickly win his heart, you do need to take a shortcut, such as... offering your loyalty.

Sure enough, as Qiu Tu thought this, Li Feng also looked at Qiu Tu, then looked at him intently with her beautiful phoenix eyes and said, "What Yan Yan means is that you are a good boss, and also a good man."

"You always protect your woman with all your might and never skimp on resources."

"So, since there's no way to get closer to you in the conventional way for the time being, why not just shorten the distance between us physically?"

"When the physical distance becomes negative, the psychological distance will naturally shorten as well."

At this point, Li Feng seemed to have finally made up her mind. She grabbed her bra with both hands and then ripped it apart violently. With a "rip," her bra tore into countless butterflies.

As the butterflies slowly fell to the ground, Qiu Tu was greeted by Li Feng's beautifully sculpted body.

Perhaps due to years of leading troops in battle, Li Feng's body was honey-colored and streamlined, exuding a powerful aura. Combined with her short, ear-length hair, she undeniably possessed a unique charm.

The only problem is... although Li Feng is good-looking and has a unique temperament, Qiu Tu is surrounded by stunning beauties, and he was even thoroughly "ridden" by Tang Feifei, his "knight," just a couple of days ago. So, Qiu Tu really can't muster any interest in Li Feng, who is similar to him, for the time being.

Moreover, compared to a woman like Li Feng, Qiu Tu actually prefers a mature woman like the Heavenly King Zhiyan, who is more to his liking.
