Then let them offer their loyalty!

Upon hearing the words of the Heavy Stone God King, the White Ape God King's eyes lit up slightly, and a look of sudden realization appeared on his face.

He began, "You mean...cut off his path to promotion?"

"Make sure to give advance notice so that the gods are not allowed to side with him, so that his strength will be blocked and he will be unable to advance."

Chongshi nodded, then said expressionlessly, "Although I can't guarantee that I can keep his strength under control forever."

"As he gradually establishes himself in the 'Temple,' he will most likely win over some gods and gradually bring them under his command."

"But it's enough to just delay his initial development."

"This gives us ample time to observe him and discern his identity and stance."

"Although this might displease Lady Elena, ... Lady Elena has just entered 'Divine Intoxication,' and will probably go into seclusion to recuperate after returning. She won't have the energy to deal with such a trivial matter for the time being."

"Once she comes out of seclusion, everything will be settled. Even if she gets scolded a few times, it won't affect the overall situation."

Although Chong Shi's words were light and easy to understand, they were actually incredibly insidious.

Even the Star Forger God King frowned slightly for a few seconds after hearing this, and then said, "Won't this make things too ugly?"

He said, "A god-king who has been promoted cannot find a single person willing to follow him."

"This kind of thing would be a laughing stock in any branch office."

"At that time, Qiu Tu's prestige will plummet, falling straight to rock bottom. All the gods will know that Qiu Tu not only has no foundation or background, but has also offended the higher-ups."

"From now on, who will dare to pledge allegiance to him? He will face immense difficulties throughout the entire 'Temple'."

At this point, the Star Forger King suddenly changed his tone, and his expression relaxed. "However... we're doing this all for the 'Temple,' for His Majesty Mitchell."

"These are all last resort precautions. I believe Qiu Tu will understand. Hahaha."

Upon hearing the Star Forging God King's 180-degree turn, the White Ape God King and the Heavy Stone God King were stunned for a moment, then they couldn't help but look at each other and burst into laughter.

"Yes. Let Qiu Tu suffer a bit. It's all for the temple..."

.....

Meanwhile, in the distant "array".

Qiu Tu was unaware that he was already being plotted against before he had even officially joined the temple.

At this moment, he was still watching and paying attention to the situation of Shepherd God King and Elena.

The man in white was clearly very wary of Elena in her "divine intoxication" state.

So he slowly rose, his eyes indifferently fixed on Elena, and began his performance, "Elena, for an ordinary god-king, you actually activated 'Divine Intoxication'?"

"It seems... he really is important."

At this point, the man in white glanced at Qiu Tu, as if scrutinizing him.

Upon seeing this, Elena casually burped. The next second, along with her burp, her pupils seemed to be ignited by golden flames, and the divine fire, like wine, spread wildly along the lines of her skin, rushing straight to her hair!

In the next instant, she flew into a rage, her hair standing on end amidst the blazing golden divine fire.

But that wasn't all. She raised her right hand, and there was a thin, long thorn on it that had appeared out of nowhere.

The Emei dagger gleamed with a cold light, flitting and dancing in her hands like a butterfly.

Seeing the white-clad figure, Elena suddenly thrust the Emei dagger in her hand toward her right shoulder!

With a "splat!" sound, golden divine blood spurted out from her shoulder. Perhaps due to the injury, the golden divine fire on her body suddenly boiled, and the wound on her shoulder also spewed out brilliant sparks.

Her aura began to surge wildly, and the wound she had just pierced healed rapidly within seconds.

Having done all this, Elena stood outside the formation like an omnipotent war goddess.

She stared coldly at the man in white, then said firmly, "Today, I must take him away."

Whether taken aback by Elena's determination or impressed by her dedicated acting skills, a smile actually appeared on the white-clad man's face upon seeing this.

He gently took a step back, making room for her, and then said, "Elena, you're still in such a hurry."

"I didn't say I refused. What's the point of you coming up here and stabbing yourself a few times?"

Then, the man in white looked at Qiu Tu and said, "Qiu Tu, since Lady Elena has come to save you personally, I will spare your life today."

"But from now on, you need to be careful."

"Next time, I won't be so careless and let you succeed again. So... that will be your death day."

To be honest, Qiu Tu had probably already guessed why Elena was so dedicated at this point.

To put it simply, there are two reasons.

The first reason is that the great battle between the "Temple of Order" and the "Chaos Faction" has certainly attracted the attention of all parties.

If Elena doesn't act convincingly and go all out, she might not be able to fool those powerful figures.

Of course, there is a second reason, which is... Elena didn't actually believe in herself either.

After all, he and Elena had only just met, and he was still a double agent whose true stance was unknown.

Although he helped Elena save the seven underground kingdoms, it is still possible that he was playing the long game.

For example... he deliberately gained Elena's trust, making her mistakenly believe that everything was just an act, so she became careless and unprepared.

In reality, the "Chaos Faction" had arranged for several skilled fighters to take advantage of the situation and assassinate Elena.

In that case, Elena could easily fall into the trap and even perish.

So Elena decided to treat it like a real battle.

In this way, even if she encounters an ambush by a master, she will have the ability to fight back and then take the opportunity to escape.

After mentally reviewing Elena's thoughts, Qiu Tu couldn't help but sigh to himself: As expected, there are no fools among those who follow the "path of order".

Even though Elena isn't known for her intelligence, she's actually very thorough in her work.

With that in mind, Qiu Tu didn't delay any longer. Since Elena and Bai Yi were both so dedicated, he also gave it his all and took over the role.

He bowed slightly to the man in white, then said with a smile, "Thank you for your consideration these past two days, Your Majesty Mu Xin."

"I will certainly remember Your Highness's teachings and will not meet with Your Highness."

After exchanging a few words, Qiu Tu continued to stare at the white-robed figure while backing away from the magic array.

After his body passed through the magic circle, he immediately ran towards Elena without looking back!

The man in white raised his hand behind Qiu Tu, as if he wanted to take the opportunity to "kill" Qiu Tu. However, Elena's golden eyes were fixed on him, and she raised the Emei Dagger again!

Upon seeing this, the man in white paused for a moment, then smiled gently and released his grip.

And so, under Elena's "protection," Qiu Tu successfully ran to Elena's side.

Elena glanced at him and said coldly, "Come up."

Qiu Tu didn't stand on ceremony. He leaped onto his horse and landed directly behind Elena, wrapping his arms around her waist.

Once Qiu Tu got on Elena's mare, he realized that this horse was no ordinary animal either.

With a whistle from Elena, the group of mares took to the air and galloped off toward the "Land of Dionysus".

It was incredibly fast; in just two seconds, "Chaotic West Capital" was left behind.

In the chaotic era, the weather changes randomly. A world that was just sunny and clear suddenly becomes engulfed in a blizzard.

The ice and snow lashed and swirled around Qiu Tu and Elena like merciless knives.

Qiu Tu turned around and looked in the direction of the white-clad figure behind him.

The man in white was indeed very dedicated; even after the two left, he continued his act—in a fit of anger, he directly detonated the magic circle and then summoned the "Chaos God King," seemingly to inquire about information or to pursue the two…

However, Qiu Tu knew that the white-clad man was unlikely to chase after him, and even if he did, he would not be able to catch up. So he turned around without caring and continued to put his arm around Elena's slender waist.

Elena is alluring and has a hot figure.

Seeing her heavy, soft body, Qiu Tu initially thought she would be on the plump side, but when he actually touched her, he discovered that she was actually quite slender.

A slender waist with full curves at the top and bottom, she has a true pear-shaped figure.

Qiu Tu touched her stomach, then moved upwards without making a sound, revealing a heavy, soft mass beneath her half-open dress.

Qiu Tu tried weighing it at the bottom and found it to be quite heavy.

At this moment, it's unclear whether Qiu Tu's subtle actions caught Elena's attention.

Elena turned to look at Qiu Tu, a faint smile playing on her lips. "How is it? Is it big?"

Qiu Tu:? ?

A question brought back memories of the day Qiu Tu and Elena drank together in the courtyard of the wine pool.

At first, Elena was very serious and chatted with Qiu Tu about everything from poetry and songs to the philosophy of life. But after a few drinks, she grabbed Qiu Tu's crotch and asked him if it was big.

The map was shorter than Jing Ke himself.

Now, when she encounters his advances, she doesn't care at all and even teases him in return.

This is the behavior of a female hooligan.

This certainly fits her image as a female alcoholic.

However, when Qiu Tu thought about Elena's seriousness and fairness in business, he found this woman quite interesting.

Which one is the real her?

Or perhaps, it's all her?

'I've rarely seen such a contrast...'

'A fallen career woman?'

Qiu Tu silently formed a definition for Elena in his mind, and his interest in her grew considerably.

Of course... he would never admit that this is path dependence!

In his view... he always flirted with his female bosses simply because these female bosses were indeed charming.

As for his promotion after hooking up with his female boss...?

Is this a problem?

He's already used a promotion tool, so what's wrong with getting promoted?! Isn't that reasonable?

With that in mind, Qiu Tu became even more relaxed.

Since Elena didn't object and even subtly seduced him, Qiu Tu decided not to hold back.

Since his embrace of Elena was convenient, he started moving around while responding to her.

And so, the two rode the magical little mare all the way back to the "Land of the God of Wine." When they dismounted, Qiu Tu eagerly awaited their arrival.

In contrast, Elena's face, though flushed, remained perfectly normal.

Upon arriving at the Dionysian Palace, Elena reached out and put the mare away, then slapped away Qiu Tu's hand, which was still trying to move.

She glared at Qiu Tu with her bleary eyes, then parted her full, bright red lips slightly and said reproachfully, "That's enough."

"I drank too much last time and took advantage of you a little. Today I'm just returning the favor."

"Don't take it seriously that I'm planning to have anything happen between us."

Qiu Tudong.

It's just the reserve of a mature woman.

At this moment, Elena smoothed her hair, adjusted her shirt which Qiu Tu had loosened, yawned, and said, "I just used my 'Innate Divine Skill' and need to go into seclusion to recuperate for a while."

"I've arranged your position and benefits."

"Based on your merits this time, you will serve as the deputy of the Heavy Stone God King, helping to manage the affairs of the Executive Department."

"And the rank is three stars, which corresponds to the treatment of a third-level god king."

"The temple will assign half of the gods to your service, that is, 15 gods, to help you advance in rank."

"As for the specifics, go to the Execution Department and listen to the arrangements made by the God-King Chongshi."

After saying that, she yawned, patted Qiu Tu on the shoulder, and said, "Do a good job." Then she stepped into the main hall.

The Palace of Dionysus was clearly designed by a master, its architecture grand and imposing. Even though Elena was already quite tall, walking inside felt like being slowly swallowed by a colossal beast...

Watching the towering gates of the Dionysus Palace slowly close, Qiu Tu withdrew his gaze.

'15 subordinate gods...'
