Let them offer their loyalty!-Chapter 1618 - 672: Larilo: Brother-in-Law~~

Earlier, caught in that atmosphere, Zhao Ji hadn't thought deeply about it. Now that she'd calmed down, even without thinking she knew Qiu Tu had done it on purpose at the start. But with how far things ended up going between them, maybe it just got out of hand afterwards.

Thinking about this, she couldn't help but start recalling her own subconscious.

Did she... really fail to see through this?

Thinking so, Zhao Ji's steps halted for a moment. She looked up, gazing at the sky.

The sky was scattered with endless stars, those were the fallen Heavenly Gods transformed. Wisps of white cloud floated quietly in the night, making this first night of two realms merging unusually beautiful.

The two realms fused, the real world collapsed, and the spiritual world grew stronger again. So everything was both wonderful, and false.

She watched the stars for a while in silence. Zhao Ji expressionlessly withdrew her gaze, silently murmuring in her heart,

'Still need to find a chance to kill him.'

'Something's off about him...'

.....

Meanwhile, at Qiu Tu's villa.

Larilo was here now; leaving was definitely not going to happen.

It worked out for Qiu Tu too—he could pay the elder sister's debt with the younger one. The wicked fire Zhao Ji had stoked in him was now unleashed entirely on Larilo.

As for Zhao Ji wanting to "kill him," he had no idea whatsoever.

Or rather... even if he knew, he wouldn't care. After all, lots of people talk about killing him; but... not even his "crisis sense" triggered, so either they pose no threat, or... they're just talking.

Tonight, Larilo said she wanted to, but that was just talk too, wasn't it.

He couldn't care less.

So it went... an uneventful night.

The next day, Qiu Tu called Li Feng, setting up details for the "second transfer."

After a night of transition, the Cataclysmic Power between the two realms was starting to slow, so it wouldn't affect the "Moon Displacement."

And in this call, Qiu Tu and Li Feng confirmed one more thing—namely, the founding of the "Human United Front—Supreme Council."

Now, the elites of the Human Camp, barring Sanctuary No. 2, were almost all in Qiu Tu's hands.

In effect, Qiu Tu held 70% of humanity's power. In that situation, setting up a "Human Supreme Council" to manage things formally was urgent.

Of course... Qiu Tu had selfish reasons for kicking off this political reform. Namely... he wanted to climb even higher.

His Cataclysm Path was "Order-Politics." Though he still only controlled one region, 70% of the Human Camp's population was in his hands.

With that, he was curious: if he became the Human Camp's top official, would it push his Realm up another notch?

If it really worked, even just stepping into the mid-Eighth Rank, Qiu Tu's strength would soar. That would give him a big edge in the closing stage of the "Heavenly God Trial"...

.....

Meanwhile, as Qiu Tu and Li Feng plotted tonight's second transfer of civilians and the upcoming political reform—

Eastern Kingdom.

This was the dominion of the East God King. As the leader of the four Divine Kings, the East God King's influence permeated all of the Boundless Heart Sea—core area.

Within the Eastern Kingdom itself, the East God King was the sole Existence.

Every city, every fortress, had a massive gold statue of the East God King standing tall.

And yet—strangely—you couldn't make out its figure, nor its face, not even its sex.

But... as long as you looked up at that statue, you'd feel an urge to kneel on the ground and worship.

At this moment, at the City Lord Mansion of Meteor City, on the border between the Eastern Kingdom and the northeast region—

The City Lord of Meteor City knelt before a gold statue of the East God King, his face dark, reporting the full story of Kabane and the seven Eighth Rank deities from the temple being wiped out.

Clearly, word had spread through the night: Kabane and the temple's seven Eighth Rank experts were slaughtered by Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji working together; the news had traveled from the edge region to the core area and all factions now knew.

The Meteor City Lord obviously understood how crucial this intelligence was, so as soon as he got it, he wasted no time reporting to the East God King.

In that moment, as he made his report, the gold statue seemed to truly receive divine revelation, slowly starting to glow.

After a moment, the gold statue uttered words eerily, as if possessed.

The voice was raspy and low, almost mechanical—not even betraying its gender.

Without joy or sorrow, it said, "Defend the battlefield. Tomorrow I shall descend in person to pay those two Earth Deities who killed Kabane a visit." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Hearing the East God King's reply, the Meteor City Lord hurriedly prostrated himself in jubilation, "Yes, welcome, My God!"

....

In a blink, the sun rose in the east and set in the west, and the whole day passed just like that.

That night, Qiu Tu stood once again on top of the office building, chatting casually with Zhi Yan Heavenly King, who came for another late-night rendezvous.

This time, it was clearly Qiu Tu who'd invited her, not the other way around.

But because of yesterday's triumph, whenever Zhi Yan looked at Qiu Tu with those beautiful eyes, there was an odd glint. She asked, "Lord Qiu, you called me here late—was there something you wanted?"

At that, the mature beauty Qiu Tu had long coveted let out a small laugh, teasing, "Yesterday, you and Zhao Ji took out Kabane and the seven Eighth Rank experts from the temple; word of that spread throughout the entire Boundless Heart Sea."

"You seeking me out tonight—is it to brag about your victory?"
