Soon, with Qiu Tu's continued attacks, Zhao Ji's injuries were almost completely healed.

When Qiu Tu realized that he could no longer treat Zhao Ji from the back, he coughed and said, "Sister Zhao Ji, your back is healed."

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhao Ji gave a cold "hmm" and then said, "Put your hand back and wait for me."

Upon hearing Zhao Ji's words, Qiu Tu withdrew his hand.

The sound of Zhao Ji turning around came from the darkness. After a moment, Zhao Ji said coldly, "Come on."

To be honest, at that moment, Qiu Tu really felt his lips were dry and his palms were sweating.

He swallowed hard, licked his lips, and then slowly stretched his hand forward.

In the darkness, Qiu Tu's hand gently touched something.

Qiu Tu instinctively wanted to grab a handful, but his strong willpower prevented him from making any move.

He adjusted his position slightly, then closed his eyes, cleared his mind of distractions, and began to focus on treating Zhao Ji.

What he didn't see was that in the darkness, Zhao Ji's azure eyes were quietly watching him, as if they could see through the darkness.

When Zhao Ji saw Qiu Tu quietly and obediently treating her in the darkness, a hint of surprise appeared on her expressionless face.

With a gentle wave of her hand, a slender, silver dragon-like soft sword silently pierced the darkness and returned to Qiu Tu's wrist from behind. The entire process was completely silent...

Meanwhile, Qiu Tu was unaware that he had just escaped death again, and he was still focused on treating Zhao Ji.

It must be said that "Order Space" is indeed a divine skill.

Even though Zhao Ji suffered from the "backlash of the gods," her rank was still only at the eighth level, not yet that of a god, so the "order space" could directly affect her.

Therefore, as Qiu Tu pressed down on Zhao Ji, the healing power of the cataclysmic event began to slowly heal her.

Soon, the injuries caused by the "divine backlash" suffered by Zhao Ji were almost completely healed.

However, perhaps because such an action was too ambiguous, neither of them said a word.

Even so, the distance between the two seemed to have narrowed considerably.

As Qiu Tu received treatment, he couldn't help but recall Article 81 of the "Emotional Handbook" he was using this time.

Indeed... physical contact is the most effective way to enhance the relationship between two people.

After the two used such an ambiguous posture and actions, Qiu Tu felt that his relationship with Zhao Ji could be described as progressing by leaps and bounds.

It seems like there wouldn't be any problem if we wanted to have some more intimate physical contact in the future.

Just then, as Qiu Tu was thinking this, Zhao Ji's cold voice rang in his ear, "Focus your mind."

Qiu Tu felt a chill run down his spine, realizing that his mind was wandering again.

But it's not his fault. With a beautiful woman in front of him and her hand... who wouldn't have such fantasies?

However, now that Zhao Ji had given him a reminder and hadn't even called out "three," Qiu Tu quickly composed himself and continued the treatment.

Just then, a familiar girl's voice suddenly rang out from afar, "Qiu Tu! Sister! Are you here?"

Upon hearing the girl's voice, Qiu Tu was startled for a moment, then he keenly recognized the girl's voice.

'Lariello? What's she doing here? And she even went inside the villa.'

Thinking this, Qiu Tu was startled again, and then, as if he had thought of something, he suddenly looked up and "looked" at Zhao Ji.

In the darkness, he couldn't see anything, but... he seemed to "see" Zhao Ji's appearance.

Even as she tried to hide it, a hint of panic crept into the eyes of this stunningly beautiful, icy woman.

'So...your heart is in turmoil too.'

Of course, all of the above are Qiu Tu's conjectures. But he has good reason to make such a guess.

Based on Qiu Tu's understanding of Zhao Ji, she is a very thorough and cautious person.

Although she set up a magic array around the villa, given Zhao Ji's personality, she would definitely keep a close eye on the surrounding area at all times.

Let alone Larilu, even a fly flying in would probably raise her alarm. Yet now Larilu has barged in right under her nose.

This was clearly because Zehime was too engrossed in her work or lost in thought, and forgot to pay attention to her surroundings.

If this can't prove that Zhao Ji's mind is in turmoil, then what can prove it?

Sure enough, at that moment, accompanied by Lariluo's shout, Zhao Ji's body trembled violently. Then, as if caught in the act of adultery, she shoved Qiu Tu away forcefully.

Qiu Tu felt a gentle force lift him into the air, and before he could react, he landed in a parabolic arc on a hard board.

At this moment, Zhao Ji completely ignored Qiu Tu and decisively reached out to beckon.

The next second, a piece of clothing flew out of the darkness and draped over her.

She was wearing a gauze dress, which was very easy to put on and take off, so she reached out to fasten it, but it was too late.

With a creak, the bedroom door opened, and light suddenly flooded the entire room.

The sudden change in light and shadow caused the two people in the room to squint and then turn their heads away.

But what makes a master a master is often this crucial moment.

Qiu Tu could only turn his head away, but Zhao Ji made another move at the same time!

The next second, a blanket flew off the bed and landed on Lariro's head out of thin air!

Lariluo couldn't dodge in time and was completely covered by Qiu Tu's blanket. She cried out, "Ouch!" and frantically tried to get rid of the blanket.

In just two or three seconds, Zhao Ji had calmly finished dressing and her expression returned to normal.

Qiu Tu also came to his senses at this time. Having witnessed the whole thing, he was truly shocked.

Is this even possible? Is this even possible? If you can't avoid it, just cover your head with the blanket to block your vision?

Besides being shocked, Qiu Tu also felt a bit thirsty.

The reason is simple...it's probably because Lahiro arrived so suddenly that Zehime wasn't dressed properly.

So when Zhao Ji made those big movements, her clothes were all spread out. That's why Qiu Tu felt like he'd unintentionally seen it...

Lala! She's definitely a lucky charm!

At this moment, Lariluo finally removed the blanket from her head. She tossed Qiu Tu's blanket aside and said with a coquettish tone, "Sister! What are you doing?! Why did you cover me with the blanket?!"

"What shady things were you and Qiu Tu doing in the room?"

After speaking, La Riluo looked up and saw Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji sitting at their desks with several intelligence documents in front of them.

La Riluo was completely bewildered by what she saw, and Qiu Tu was equally bewildered: he had no idea when he was sitting at the table.

In the entire room, only Zhao Ji remained, her expression indifferent, holding a piece of intelligence and reading it intently.

At this moment, as if she had just heard Larilu's words, she raised her head, looked at Larilu coldly, and then said, "What shameful things?"

"We're doing something important."

At this point, Zhao Ji paused for a moment, then asked in return, "On the contrary, why are you bothering us in the middle of the night when you have nothing to do?"

It has to be said that Zehime's aura was incredibly strong, and her expression was extremely serious. So, Larilu was momentarily at a loss for words.

She opened her mouth, wanting to explain further and ask more questions, but she didn't know where to begin.

So she hesitated for a moment and decided to take a longer-term view.

So she avoided the topic altogether, then walked over to the two of them and tentatively asked, "Sister, what intelligence are you and Qiu Tu studying so late at night?"

Zeji said coldly, "The enemy."

"The enemy?" Larilu was taken aback for a moment, then she leaned forward, her scarlet eyes fixed on the intelligence report in Zhao Ji's hand...

Chapter 672 Lariluo: Brother-in-law~~ (Seeking monthly votes!)

When Larilu saw the name of the person in the intelligence report in Zhao Ji's hand, she was first stunned, then her eyes blinked slightly. Finally, she was so surprised that her cherry-like mouth couldn't close.

She looked at Zhao Ji in shock, then pointed to the intelligence report in Zhao Ji's hand and asked incredulously, "Sister, your enemy... is Tang Feifei?"

She looked at Zhao Ji, her scarlet eyes gleaming with gossip. "What kind of enemies are you? Love rivals?"

"Sis, you've finally admitted to your relationship with Qiu Tu?"

Upon hearing La Riluo's words, Zhao Ji was also stunned for a moment, and then she belatedly realized that the information in her hand was actually an intelligence file on Tang Feifei.

As the master of the "Northwest Shelter" and now the highest-ranking officer of the "Human Faction," Qiu Tu naturally possesses information on all the high-ranking officials of various shelters. Among them, the information on his close confidants is the most comprehensive.

As for why there was information about Tang Feifei in his bedroom, the reason was simple. It was because Tang Feifei had recently led her "Puppet Insect" army to sweep across the entire "Northwest Region," and her strength had progressed rapidly, advancing directly from the sixth rank to the mid-sixth rank.

In other words, her foundation is too weak and she needs to solidify it; otherwise, she might have been able to reach the late stage of the sixth rank.

It is precisely because of this progress that she has recently appeared frequently in Qiu Tu's sight. After all, she is one of Qiu Tu's most important women and his most worthy confidant to cultivate; her improvement in strength is an enhancement of Qiu Tu's camp.

Therefore, in the past two days, Qiu Tu has also been studying Tang Feifei's disaster path and the direction for her future improvement whenever he has free time.

This led him to casually leave Tang Feifei's information in his bedroom.

As it turned out, it was picked up by Zehime today, and then misunderstood by Lariro.

Faced with the excited Lariro, Zehime was somewhat speechless. In that situation, her reaction had actually been quick enough.

But... in just two seconds, she had to arrange everything so quickly using her mental power, which was already an extremely difficult task. How could she possibly have time to read and select Qiu Tu's intelligence materials?

Unexpectedly, this blunder occurred.

However, after spending a lot of time with Qiu Tu, she also learned many of Qiu Tu's skills in handling things.

For example... when encountering a situation, you should take the initiative and the power to define it, and not let the other party lead you by the nose.

So, instead of continuing the conversation with Larilu, she looked up, gave Larilu a cold look, and said, "What rival? I mean... you're the enemy. The enemy that gets us into serious business."

Lari Luo: ?

Larilu was genuinely surprised that her sister would argue from this angle, and was momentarily stunned. However, she was already used to being criticized by her sister, so she wasn't angry.

Instead, she shamelessly approached Zhao Ji with a grin and said, "Sister, don't say that to me. It will make me sad."

After saying that, she hugged Zhao Ji's arm and rubbed against it mischievously, then continued to probe, "But that doesn't make sense. Why are you two looking at Tang Feifei's information in the bedroom so late at night instead of sleeping?"

As early as when Larilu pointed out that she had mistakenly taken Tang Feifei's information, Zhao Ji had already prepared all her excuses.

So, she straightened her clothes slightly and said calmly, "Tang Feifei's strength has increased dramatically recently, so Qiu Tu asked me to help Tang Feifei plan her future development path."

"If you hadn't come in and disturbed us, we might have finished talking and gone back to sleep by now."

At this point, Zhao Ji looked at Qiu Tu, pondered for a moment, and then waved her hand, taking out two jade stones from the "dimensional space" and sticking them to her forehead.

A moment later, a faint light flashed, and some information was recorded into the two jade stones.

Zhao Ji took the jade and handed it to Qiu Tu, saying calmly, "The Northwest region has now been pacified. Tang Feifei's strength has reached its peak in the short term. Therefore, what she needs to do is not to continue breaking through to higher levels, but to solidify her foundation."

"Her talent is considerable, and she possesses 'absolute perception,' so she has the potential to become a 'god' in the future. She should be nurtured well."

"These are two catastrophic abilities I created when my strength was relatively weak, combining them with 'Absolute Perception.' Both are group-type abilities. They suit her very well."

"Her cataclysmic abilities, job title, and role in your team are actually more suited to being a general who expands territory, but her cataclysmic abilities make her a warrior. This actually limits her development."

"These two cataclysmic abilities can help her change this situation, allowing her to better lead her soldier groups in combat and complete the closed loop of her power system."

Hearing Zhao Ji's words, Qiu Tu accepted the two pieces of white jade with a look of delight. He couldn't help but glance at La Ri Luo: I knew La Ri Luo was a lucky charm!

He only barged in once, but not only did he see a riot of spring colors, he also got Zhao Ji to take out some good things.

After seeing Qiu Tu accept Bai Yu, Zhao Ji put down Tang Feifei's information and said coldly, "Alright, we've done everything we could to help."

"If there's nothing else, I'll head back now."

Qiu Tu knew that although Zhao Ji appeared calm on the surface, she was definitely feeling extremely uneasy inside. He had already achieved all his goals for the night, so he didn't bother Zhao Ji any further.

After all... pursuing women is like fishing; it requires a balance of tension and relaxation. If you relax too much, the fish might get away.

However, if extreme pressure is applied, the rod may break or the line may snap.

The progress in Qiu Tu's relationship with Zhao Ji today was already just right. In fact, due to the treatment, the progress was even faster than he had imagined.

Therefore, Qiu Tu didn't pester Zhao Ji, but instead took the initiative to cooperate. He stood up and said, "Sister Zhao Ji, thank you so much for making this trip tonight."

"I will keep the things safe and hand them over to Speaker Tang later."

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhao Ji gave him a deep look, her gaze seemingly filled with complex emotions.
