However, he also knew that since Qinglan still dared to bother him despite his repeated warnings, she must really have something urgent to attend to.
So he couldn't be bothered to care about Qinglan's offense. He simply flashed forward, grabbed Qinglan by the back of her collar, and, despite her struggling and flailing arms, carried her to the rooftop where they had been chatting the night before.
Although the female lead was different tonight, the rooftop terrace is still beautiful.
Once on the rooftop, Qiu Tu threw Qing Lan to the ground and said irritably, "Fine. Then tell me what urgent intelligence you've encountered."
"If I'm not satisfied with what you've said, I'll stab you with a knife."
With Qiu Tu's new assurance, Qing Lan breathed a sigh of relief. She cutely got up from the ground and began to recount the information she had obtained from Zhu Wu in detail.
Although Qiu Tu was fond of beautiful women, he also knew that his ability to establish himself in this world and possess so many stunning beauties was mainly due to his strength and status.
Therefore, when Qiu Tu heard that a God-King had forcibly broken through the "World Barrier" and descended into this world, he couldn't help but become serious.
He quickly put away his indulgence of the past two days and got back into work mode. Then, with a serious expression, he looked at Qinglan and asked,
"You mean... a shooting star just appeared in the sky, and Zhuwu recognized it as the 'Descent of the God-King'?"
"And she even calculated the location of that 'God-King's' descent?"
Qinglan nodded, then continued, "Yes. It's in the 'Southern Kingdom'."
Qiu Tu nodded slightly upon hearing this. He did not underestimate the news that Qing Lan had brought late at night.
Although Zhuwu is known for being reckless and unreliable, she doesn't joke around when it comes to important matters.
Therefore, Qiu Tu simply waved his hand.
The next second, a communicator flew up from downstairs and landed in Qiu's hand.
Qiu Tu took the communicator and started making a call.
"Boundless Ocean of the Mind" is part of the entire spiritual world, and everything in it is composed of the spirit.
Therefore, no matter what major events happen in the world, in theory, unusual phenomena will occur.
Therefore, the Human Alliance established a department specifically for observing celestial phenomena, called the "Celestial Phenomena Bureau."
The Astronomical Bureau monitors and records celestial phenomena 24 hours a day. However, generally only significant celestial events are reported.
As Qinglan just said, this meteor shower wasn't particularly unusual, so the Astronomical Bureau will most likely not report it. But it will definitely be recorded.
Qiu Tu's phone call naturally had the highest level of communication access, so the call was connected in less than two seconds.
Qiu Tu inquired about the meteor phenomenon that had just occurred.
Sure enough, the Celestial Bureau had records, and they were completely consistent with what Qinglan had said.
After confirming that the strange phenomenon was real, Qiu Tu pondered for two seconds before taking out a small wooden sword, about the width of a finger, from his dimensional space.
He brought his index and middle fingers together and ran them across the wooden sword.
The next second, the wooden sword suddenly turned semi-transparent, slowly unfolding a semi-transparent area like a peacock spreading its tail.
Two seconds later, the semi-transparent area slowly lit up, revealing a cold and beautiful female warrior.
She was dressed in a snow-white Hanfu, her legs were long and straight, and her waist was slender and accentuated her full breasts.
In the picture, she is gracefully crouching on the wall, her face aloof yet secretly observing something.
Upon seeing Qiu Tu, she glanced at him sideways and then asked coldly, "Do you need something?"
Clearly, this is Shao Hua, the first sexually frigid woman in the Four Great Divine Kingdoms, the rebellious niece in white, one of the six new Heavenly Gods, and the female knight-errant whom Qiu Tu once collaborated with.
Qiu Tu didn't care about Shao Hua's indifference.
He can now actually stretch a 30-minute assignment into 300 minutes of writing, leaving Doris screaming in frustration.
But Shaohua is clearly not Doris and has no interest in these things.
Therefore, it's understandable to be indifferent to one's own feelings.
The two can't even be considered friends now; at most, they can only be considered business partners who have collaborated once before.
In this situation, handling matters officially is clearly the best choice for both of them.
Thinking this through, Qiu Tu then shared the information he had gathered and instructed her to conduct a secret investigation and share any new information promptly.
After listening to Qiu Tu's words, Shao Hua remained silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke up, "Guess what I'm doing right now?"
Qiu Tu glanced at Shao Hua squatting against the wall in a somewhat unseemly posture, and remained silent for a moment. "I hope it's not what I'm thinking. That would be too disgusting."
A question mark slowly appeared above Shao Hua's head: ?
She was clearly a little behind Qiu Tu's train of thought, but her strength was that she was too lazy to delve into things she couldn't understand.
So she didn't let Qiu Tu continue guessing, but instead said, "I am monitoring the descending God-King."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu was taken aback at first, then his eyes widened slightly. He asked with some surprise, "Are you currently monitoring that descending God-King?"
"You knew all along that it was the God-King descending, and you even found his location?"
Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Shao Hua coldly replied, "More or less."
"They landed at my training ground and destroyed half of it."
"I was cultivating on the other side when I heard the noise. I thought it was an enemy attack, so I grabbed my axe and came over."
"The closer I got, the more I felt something was wrong. So at the last minute, I decided to retreat and observe from a distance."
"And that's how they escaped disaster."
Qiu Tu: .....
What a chosen one! The enemy tried to sneak into this world, but ended up landing right near her.
She wanted to check, but ended up escaping unscathed.
No wonder Bai Yi thinks so highly of her niece.
After silently reflecting on his feelings, Qiu Tu came to his senses and began to inquire about the information of the foreign god-king.
He keenly caught the word "they" that Shao Hua had just used, and then asked, "Is it not just one God-King who has descended?"
Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Shao Hua gave a cold "hmm".
She crouched against the wall, bending low, and continued to observe the situation in the distance as she said, "Two people. A man and a woman."
"The man was about 1.5 meters tall, with a pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks, shifty eyes, and was as thin as a monkey."
"The woman... is two and a half to three meters tall, and looks like a giant. She has two horns extending outwards on her head, looks very mature, and has big breasts and a fat butt."
At this point, Shaohua paused for a moment and used an adjective, "Her breasts were bigger than her head. They swayed back and forth."
Qiu Tu keenly caught this keyword. Then he looked down at Qing Lan's head beside him and compared the two. It felt a bit exaggerated.
He listened quietly to Shao Hua's report for a while, then asked, "Which of these two people is the God King?"
This time, Shao Hua paused for a few seconds before saying, "It's hard to say."
"When they descended, I sensed that they didn't conceal their aura. That's why I discovered they were all very strong, far stronger than me."
At this point, Shao Hua paused for a moment, "But I tend to think it's that woman."
"Because that man acted like a little quail in front of her, with a fawning expression."
"However, it cannot be ruled out that he is pretending to be weak while actually being strong."
Hearing Shao Hua's words, Qiu Tu nodded slightly. He said, "Okay. I understand."
"Be careful. Only conduct reconnaissance when it is safe to do so."
"Even... it would be best to use a clone."
Upon hearing this, Shaohua gave a curt "hmm" and replied, "I know."
After she finished speaking, she suddenly realized what she had said.
Wait a minute... I'm not Qiu Tu's subordinate. Why should I listen to Qiu Tu?
Before she could even react, Qiu Tu spoke again.
He said, "By the way, has your uncle contacted you recently?"
Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Shao Hua was stunned for a moment.
She hesitated for a moment before saying, "No."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu on the other end of the phone gave a thoughtful look, hummed in agreement, and then steered the conversation back on track.
He said, "Then I'll go and talk to Zhao Ji about the current situation. We'll communicate more if there are any new developments."
After saying that, Qiu Tu ended the long-distance communication.
At this moment, as Shao Hua watched Qiu Tu's image disappear before her eyes, her brows furrowed slightly.
Qiu Tu's question made her feel that something was wrong.
During the last "God King Incident", Shao Hua was stood up by her uncle, so she made her own choice and went directly to Qiu Tu late at night to reach a cooperation agreement with him.
In the end, she risked destroying the panda Zhiyi, a god-level avatar, to help Qiu Tu kill the three god-kings; in exchange, she advanced to godhood herself and formed an alliance with Qiu Tu, agreeing to not interfere with each other.
The reason she dared to make such a deal with Qiu Tu was because Qiu Tu's character and integrity were widely recognized.
But she never really understood why Qiu Tu would believe her.
Now, upon suddenly hearing Qiu Tu mention her uncle, a thought immediately formed in her mind: Could it be... that Qiu Tu knows her uncle?
The reason Qiu Tu agreed to his conditions was because of his uncle?
Thinking this, she couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. Where...where did her uncle go?
Why won't you see yourself?
Meanwhile...
On the rooftop of Qiu Tu's villa in Dongcheng City, Qiu Tu was also pondering this question.
Where did the man in white go...?
Yes, that's right. The man in white has disappeared.
After the Celestial Trial ended, Bai Yi and the other four Celestials besides Qiu Tu advanced to the Celestial Realm.
However... he disappeared after Qiu Tu's promotion was completed.
Qiu Tu did arrange for someone to keep an eye on him.
But he was formerly the Southern God King, now a Heavenly God. Who can keep an eye on him?
Now, with a formidable enemy at hand, Qiu Tu naturally wants to unite all forces that can be united and eliminate all uncontrollable elements.
That's why I asked Shaohua.
Unfortunately, there has been no news of Shaohua either.
'These are truly turbulent times...'
Thinking this, Qiu Tu's gaze became somewhat deep.
He pondered quietly for a moment before snapping out of his reverie and looking at Qinglan before him.
Qinglan was sitting next to Qiu Tu, eating melon seeds.
Seeing Qiu Tu looking at her, she grinned and gave him a cute smile.
Qiu Tu is not one to deny his mistakes. He frankly admitted, "Tonight was my fault. The news was indeed very timely."
As he spoke, he patted Qinglan on the shoulder and said, "I'll give you credit for this. I'll prepare an extra reward for you in a couple of days."
Qinglan liked Qiu Tu's most about his generosity and his ability to deliver on promises. So, seeing that Qiu Tu had given her a fair assessment, a smile immediately appeared on her face. Then she left readily.
Watching her departing figure, Qiu Tu's gaze became somewhat thoughtful.
Actually... compared to Qinglan, what surprised Qiu Tu even more tonight was Zhuwu.
The phenomenon of "the descent of the God King" was discovered by Zhuwu.
According to the records of the "Celestial Phenomenon Bureau", this unusual phenomenon was actually not remarkable.
This suggests that the unusual phenomenon was most likely concealed using a special magical artifact.
But Candle Dance could still see it at a glance and gave a hint.
This significantly increased Qiu Tu's attention to the Candle Dance.
'It seems... my unassuming goddaughter is quite extraordinary...'
