She felt that, in comparison, Qiu Tu was the real master who knew how to play the game of life and was deeply versed in women's hearts.
Therefore, she felt that even with the help of "catastrophic pathways" and "catastrophic abilities," Doris was probably no match for Qiu Tu.
'It's over, it's over, I feel like I'm really going to watch my mistress walk right into the lion's den.'
Just as the old woman was thinking this, Doris spoke again.
This time, her expression was much more serious. Her eyebrows and eyes were indifferent, less charming and more solemn. She said softly, "Granny... you don't need to worry so much."
“I understand your concerns, but think about it. Even if Qiu Tu isn’t a good match, in this world, who else would be a good match?”
The old woman was stunned when she heard Doris's words.
Her mouth was slightly open, and she stood there quietly for a while, her mind racing.
After a moment, having figured everything out, she looked up at Doris and bowed slightly respectfully, "Miss's teachings are correct."
Previously, the nanny thought Doris had become love-struck and single-mindedly wanted to conquer Qiu Tu. But after hearing Doris's last words, she finally understood her young mistress's true feelings.
In fact, Doris's decision to completely side with Qiu Tu was not a spur-of-the-moment decision, but rather a well-thought-out one.
This is no longer the golden age of hundreds of years ago, when gods roamed freely and even an eighth-ranking deity was less valuable than a dog. A female god now has a multitude of choices.
You should know that there are only 6 celestial beings in the entire "Boundless Sea of Hearts" right now, and 4 of them are women. There are only two men.
If not Qiu Tu, should we choose that other mysterious "reincarnation of a god" with a strange way of doing things?
Moreover, with the birth of a new batch of gods, the "Battlefield of Gods" will inevitably reignite, affecting all the gods.
If our young lady is all alone, she will inevitably become cannon fodder and may very well perish in this great battle.
In this situation, Doris's only hope of survival is to find a powerful force to protect her.
Considering this, joining Qiu Tu's powerful team is arguably Doris's best option.
As for... is it possible to choose other god-king factions in the "Battlefield of Gods"?
In the "Crimson Realm," there are only gods who die standing, not gods who sell out the world for personal gain...
Having thought it through, the old woman respectfully said, "Then, Miss, I will now go and prepare a gift for you to give to His Majesty Qiu Tu."
Upon hearing this, Doris smiled gently and nodded slightly in agreement.
Seeing this, the old woman bowed slightly to Doris, then turned and walked toward the castle.
As she reached the castle gate, she couldn't help but turn back and glance at Doris.
Under the moonlight, Doris looked up at Qiu Tucheng, who had created a divine phenomenon in the sky. Her porcelain-white cheeks were even whiter than snow in the moonlight. Her long, wavy, wine-red hair had ends that were dyed with a gradient of molten gold.
Once upon a time, this woman, beautiful as an angel, was just an innocent little kid.
Before she knew it, she had embarked on the same path as her father, becoming a god. And... she had begun to truly stand on her own.
'Master...did you see? Miss has grown up...'
Thinking this, the old woman wiped her eyes and then bowed her head again as she entered the castle.
.......
Qiu Tu's advancement to the rank of Celestial God can be considered the most significant event in the entire "Boundless Heart Sea" during this period.
It even far surpasses the five celestial gods who advanced at the same time a few days ago.
After all, everyone knows that although Zhao Ji is the strongest in the world, Qiu Tu is the true core of that alliance and group.
Whether it's Zhao Ji, Qing Lan, or Doris who has worked with Qiu Tu, they all revolve around Qiu Tu, taking him as their priority and following his arrangements.
The entire power and control of the force were in Qiu Tu's hands.
In addition, Zhao Ji is elusive and hard to find. Even if you do find her, she's like a big ice block, unsmiling and difficult to communicate with, so pleasing Qiu Tu is definitely more valuable.
So when the strange phenomenon appeared in the sky, and all the forces learned that Qiu Tu had been promoted to a god, they could no longer contain themselves.
In order to make a good impression on Qiu Tu, the new ruler of the "Boundless Heart Sea", the leaders of various forces sent their most important confidants, or even came in person, to congratulate Qiu Tu on his promotion.
This also led to the fact that when Qiu Tu completed his promotion, adjusted his state, and returned to Dongcheng City, he found that Dongcheng City had already become the center of the entire "Boundless Heart Sea".
One convoy after another, one deity after another, began to drive into or fly into the eastern city. The city, which was originally relatively empty, even felt a bit crowded because of the sudden increase in outsiders.
The people of Dongcheng had never seen such a magnificent scene before. They all stared at the gods and powerful figures who had come to offer their congratulations.
In the past two years, due to the integration of several regions and the war between gods, more and more supernatural phenomena have been exposed to the eyes of ordinary people.
Seeing that they could no longer hide the truth, the various shelters gradually began to loosen restrictions on speech and started to provide basic science education to the public.
This has led to ordinary people becoming increasingly aware of the catastrophic creatures and evil gods in the past two years.
Just like truly cutting-edge technology, it's very difficult for ordinary people to access it. Therefore, most of the catastrophic creatures and evil gods they encountered couldn't fly and didn't possess such a powerful aura.
Therefore, when the people suddenly saw so many powerful evil gods arrive in Dongcheng City and behave themselves, they were all curious about what had happened.
Just as "Dongcheng City" became the focus of the entire "Boundless Heart Sea", Qiu Tu returned to his villa in Dongcheng City.
As a result, as soon as he returned to the villa, he ran into his "god-daughter" Zhuwu.
Candle Dance was clearly waiting for Qiu Tu here. So when she saw Qiu Tu, she stood up and reported, "Godfather, people from 'Crimson Territory' have arrived..."

"Crimson Collar?"
Qiu Tu didn't pay much attention to what Zhu Wu said.
Upon first seeing so many evil gods and forces arrive, his keen mind immediately guessed that this meant various forces were beginning to pledge allegiance and choose sides.
Qiu Tu was not surprised by Doris's choice of "Crimson Collar".
Although Doris is now a goddess, she is still all alone and weak compared to Qiu Tu's side.
Whether she wants to continue her advancement or deal with the many god-kings who may invade this world, she needs to find an organization that can protect her.
Qiu Tu's side is clearly her best choice.
Therefore, her coming to congratulate herself on her ascension to godhood is itself a statement of her attitude.
Thinking this, Qiu Tu waved his hand dismissively and said, "Okay. I understand."
"I'll rest for a bit, then I'll go see her."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhu Wu nodded slightly and then prepared to leave—now that Qiu Tu's core confidants were not in Dongcheng City, the only one who could rival Doris was her, the former "reincarnation of a god".
So, after Doris arrived, she was in charge of receiving her throughout the entire process. She was very busy!
However, just as she brushed past Qiu Tu, Qiu Tu suddenly felt something was wrong.
He vaguely sensed that Zhu Wu was emanating a mixture of suppressed laughter and anticipation of a good show.
The sensation was very subtle, yet also very clear.
So Qiu Tu called out to Zhu Wu, "Wait a minute."
Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhu Wu stopped in her tracks. She looked at Qiu Tu strangely and then asked, "What's wrong, Godfather?"
Qiu Tu looked at her suspiciously, then asked, "Are you hiding something from me?"
Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhu Wu immediately put on a forced, fake smile. "No!"
Qiu Tu narrowed his eyes, looking at her with a dangerous gaze.
Of all Qiu Tu's confidants, Zhu Wu was the most reckless.
Beneath that woman's heavy breasts lay a rebellious spirit. While she wouldn't betray Qiu Tu, watching the spectacle and seeing him humiliated was something she thoroughly enjoyed.
So, now that he had noticed something was wrong with Zhu Wu, Qiu Tu naturally wanted to find out the truth.
Sure enough, upon seeing Qiu Tu notice something amiss, Zhu Wu first put her hands in her pockets and whistled, pretending to be nonchalant.
After discovering that Qiu Tu hadn't been fooled, she waved her hand dismissively, "Alright, alright, I've told you."
After saying that, a wicked smile appeared on her face, and her eyes turned into clear yellow, vertical snake pupils.
She leaned close to Qiu Tu, hooked her arm around his neck, and said with a grin, "Godfather, someone's begging to come and be my godmother."
"Godmother?" Qiu Tu was taken aback. Then his mind raced, and combining it with the information Zhu Wu had just reported, he instantly came to a conclusion.
He looked at Candle Dance with some surprise, then said, "You mean... Doris came here this time from the 'Pillow Meeting'?"
"How did you know?"
A mischievous smile crept across Zhu Wu's face. She didn't answer Qiu Tu's question, but instead patted Qiu Tu's shoulder as if watching a spectacle, before putting her hands in her pockets and leaving the villa.
Watching the woman's thuggish back, Qiu Tu: ....
It seems anyone can become a god. The standards for "gods" used to be low.
Thinking this, Qiu Tu went upstairs to take a bath and freshen up.
While bathing and resting, Qiu Tu couldn't help but ponder Doris's purpose in "offering herself to him."
Assuming the information that Candle Dance has gathered is true, then it seems that Doris has made up her mind to completely pledge allegiance to him this time.
They were even willing to risk their own lives.
This is not a bad thing for Qiu Tu, after all, Doris's strength and influence, as well as the intelligence and resources left by her father, can all enhance Qiu Tu's side.
Even disregarding all these external factors, Doris, the "most beautiful woman in the four kingdoms," is still of high value.
Doris was arguably the most beautiful, alluring, and charming woman Qiu Tu had ever seen.
In addition, she has many admirers throughout the "Boundless Sea of Hearts," so to have such a woman offer her loyalty to her is a pleasant thing for both body and mind.
Of course, with every gain comes a loss.
Having acquired such a stunning beauty, Qiu Tu will likely lose many of his troubles, but he may also suffer from a significant loss of nutrition.
This is something that Qiu Tu needs to pay attention to during his golden development period.
Another issue is that... Doris joined Qiu Tu's camp as a "goddess," so she needs to carefully consider her own position and her role within Qiu Tu's camp.
Otherwise, Doris's arrival might very well create hidden dangers in Qiu Tu's backyard.
Thinking this through, Qiu Tu's mind raced, trying to figure out how to handle the situation more effectively...
With Zhuwu's advance warning and his previous experience with Doris, Qiu Tu quickly came up with a plan.
So he was finally relieved to rest and recuperate, and then made arrangements to meet with various forces and deities.
It's possible that Qiu Tu is now the sole dominant force in the entire "Boundless Heart Sea." Therefore, apart from the four die-hard loyalists of the Four Divine Kings and some weaker factions, all other forces know that to survive in the "Boundless Heart Sea," they must rely on Qiu Tu's whims.
As a result, almost all the forces from the three great divine kingdoms, and even... including the forces from seven or eight "Southern Kingdoms," came to Dongcheng City with congratulatory gifts.
Faced with these forces that were trying to curry favor with him, Qiu Tu had only one option: to accept them all.
So, after the rest was completed, Qiu Tu directly instructed the Ministry of Internal Affairs to arrange a large banquet.
The banquet started at 8 p.m., and by around 7:30 p.m., almost all the leaders of the various factions had arrived.
Each faction took its seat according to its region and ranking within its respective country.
This may be the most complete gathering of all the high-ranking members of the "Boundless Heart Sea" in hundreds of years.
Therefore, everyone looked at the others with either curiosity or wariness.
Because they are all people at the very top of the pyramid, even if they have never met each other, they have heard of each other.
So when they saw dozens of the top forces of "Boundless Heart Sea" gathered together, all the forces were a little astonished.
Clearly, even though they had guessed that many forces shared their ideas when they arrived in Dongcheng City today, they hadn't expected there to be so many, or so comprehensive.
These forces are also divided into different circles and core groups.
In the "Northern Kingdom," the "Siyuan Pavilion" is naturally the main entity. The leaders are Emperor Man and Shuxia.
Previously, the "Western Kingdom" was dominated by the "Mist Hidden Society." Even though the "Mist Hidden Society" failed in the Trial of the Gods, and "Apocalypse" disappeared and the white-robed figure was nowhere to be found, it was still the strongest force in the entire "Western Kingdom."
Leading the group were Jin Ni, who had met Qiu Tu a few times, and Mo Tian, the father of Xiao Yacha.
Compared to the relatively stable western and northern countries, the "Eastern Kingdom" has undergone the most changes.
With the death of the Eastern God King, the "Palace of Gods," founded by the Kabane, the direct descendant of the Eastern God King, suffered heavy losses in the "Trial of the Gods," falling directly from its leading position to the middle ranks.
Therefore, this time the "Eastern Kingdom" is led by a force called the "Starry Sky Society". The leader is an old man with a full head of white hair who looks to be in his sixties or seventies.
