Then let them offer their loyalty!

Suddenly, a figure shot out from afar like an arrow.

The seawater seemed to pose no obstacle to that figure, and in just a moment, the figure arrived at the underwater ruins.

Qiu Tu was startled, thinking that Yaoqin had returned.

As a result, Qiu Tu was taken aback when the figure entered the range of the "Imperial Lamp".

"I am coming."

As they spoke, Zhao Ji, who should have about 3-4 days left to advance, stepped into the range of the Imperial Lantern, holding a three-foot-long sword.

She looked at Qiu Tu, and there seemed to be a hint of concern on her usually icy face.

"I'm sorry you've had to go through all this trouble these past few days."

Chapter 724 Zhao Ji's Best Friend? (Win an iPad with Monthly Tickets)

Seeing the travel-worn but battle-ready Zhao Ji, and hearing her slightly concerned words.

Qiu Tu: .....

He recalled the few days he had spent with Yaoqin.

I almost suffocated from the face wash once, and then I had a wet and seductive encounter with Yaoqin. I experienced Yaoqin's eloquence and was even held in her arms for a few days.

Well, how should I put it? Qiu Tu didn't actually feel that wronged.

At most, my brother was scolded by Yaoqin a few days ago until he was foaming at the mouth and lost a lot of nutrition.

If that's the case...

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu pouted, then threw himself into Zhao Ji's arms and burst into tears.

"Sister Zhaoji, you're finally here! You have no idea how I've been getting by these past few days!"

Well, when Qiu Tu rushed into Zhao Ji's arms, he didn't forget to remove the disguise of "Punishment God Realm".

He was already very handsome, and the advancements to the third, sixth, and celestial levels further optimized his physique.

This is an optimization of the world's laws, causing his body to change towards its most perfect state. This also makes his appearance even more deceptive.

Being handsome has a huge advantage in relationships.

Just like now:

Seeing "Tang Lang" with his shifty eyes, cowering towards her, Zhao Ji, even though she knew the person in front of her was Qiu Tu, still felt a twitch at the corner of her mouth and couldn't help but want to draw her sword and slay the demon.

But when "Tang Lang" transformed back into Qiu Tu's handsome and familiar form mid-air, she still felt some resistance, but she was now somewhat hesitant...

As she hesitated, Qiu Tu hugged her tightly.

Zhao Ji's body stiffened, she raised the sword in her hand, and then... slowly lowered it.

She glanced at Qiu Tu, who was "crying" in her arms, looking aggrieved. She opened her mouth several times, but in the end, she sighed slightly in her heart and let Qiu Tu hold her.

Qiu Tu noticed almost all of Zhao Ji's inner thoughts.

He couldn't help but chuckle to himself; as expected, the squeaky wheel gets the grease.

Thinking this, he hugged Zhao Ji even tighter, and even rubbed his face against her neck.

Zeki: ....

After letting Qiu Tu hold her for a while, Zhao Ji reached out and gently tapped Qiu Tu's lower back. Instantly, Qiu Tu felt a shiver run through his body, as if all his strength had vanished.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhao Ji subtly slipped away from Qiu Tu's embrace.

She straightened her clothes, which Qiu Tu had wrinkled, with a cold expression, then looked at Qiu Tu and said indifferently, "Stop pretending."

"I know your capabilities perfectly well."

"You may indeed suffer some grievances in order to achieve your goal. But it's not like you'll suffer a major loss."

"Moreover, when you're at a disadvantage, you've already figured out how the enemy is doing."

At this point, Zhao Ji's right hand trembled slightly as she twirled her sword, the longsword gently gliding across Qiu Tu's crotch, seemingly unintentional, yet also like a warning.

Qiu Tu felt a chill in his groin and quickly brought his legs together and covered his groin with his hands.

A smile flashed in Zehime's eyes. Then, holding the longsword upside down, she glanced at the destroyed "world passage" and her heart stirred slightly.

After a moment, she roughly guessed the whole thing.

She looked at Qiu Tu and asked, "You tricked Yaoqin away? And then you blew up the 'World Passage'?"

Seeing that Zhao Ji had brought up serious matters, Qiu Tu also regained his composure. He looked at Zhao Ji and then said without the slightest embarrassment, "Yes."

"I don't like handing my fate over to others. So, with a little trickery, I lured her away and then blew up the 'World Gateway.'"

"That way, even if your advancement is delayed, you'll still have enough time."

At this point, Qiu Tu looked at Zhao Ji and then flattered her at the right time, "But who knew that you, Sister Zhao Ji, could advance so quickly."

"As expected... the time of geniuses and ordinary people is different. The months of hard study and training we put in may be equivalent to a few minutes of yours."

Hearing Qiu Tu's flattering words, Zhao Ji couldn't help but glance at him sideways, and then coldly commented, "Glib talker."

However, after making her comments, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, as if to indicate that she was in a good mood.

Zehime's expression was always very subtle, so her smile was fleeting, as if she was afraid of being discovered.

After her smile faded, she raised the longsword in her hand and asked, "So... this battle is over?"

Upon hearing Zhao Ji's words, Qiu Tu did not respond immediately.

He gestured with his hand and then said, "Wait a moment while I think about it."

After he finished speaking, he lowered his head, rested his chin on his hand, and his brain started working at a rapid pace.

While Qiu Tu was deep in thought, Zhao Ji's beautiful eyes quietly fell on him.

There's a saying that "a focused man is the most handsome." This is because when men are focused on doing something, they are often doing what they do best. At such times, their confidence and focus on that task maximize their sexual appeal.

Qiu Tu was like this at that moment. Focused on planning and strategizing, he seemed to be radiating light.

Even a stoic like Zhao Ji was momentarily stunned by what she saw.

After a moment, she came to her senses, then subtly looked away, pretending that nothing had happened.

Lost in thought, Qiu Tu failed to notice Zhao Ji's unusual behavior. His mind raced, considering all the possibilities of "fighting" or "not fighting."

Perhaps because the calculations were so complex, it took him a full three minutes before he suddenly looked up, his face resolute, and said, "Attack!"

His words were resolute, radiating powerful confidence, leaving almost no room for negotiation.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ji also turned her gaze back to the present.

Having fought side by side for so long, the two already had a great deal of trust in each other.

So she didn't even ask why, nor did she ask Qiu Tu to explain. She simply nodded coolly and said, "Okay."

Upon seeing this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but reveal a warm smile. That smile was incredibly sunny, as if it could melt away everything.

Zhao Ji's deep eyes lingered on Qiu Tu's face for a moment, then she slightly turned her head away...

......

at the same time.

The Northern Kingdom. Within the control of Siyuan Pavilion. A secret room.

Yaoqin sat on a chair in the secret chamber, looking down with her cold eyes at the sixth-tier deity slumped on the ground before her, and then spoke.

"Is everything you're saying true? Are you sure you're not lying to me?"

Her figure was already enormous, and even sitting there, she was much taller than an average human. The shadow fell over her, completely obscuring the sixth-tier evil god beneath her feet.

Add to that his cold, emotionless eyes, which even gleamed with a dangerous red light, and he was practically a demon god capable of destroying the world.

In fact, as the God-King of "Destruction," she did indeed destroy the world.

Therefore, feeling the terrifying aura emanating from Yaoqin that far surpassed that of this world, the sixth-order evil god trembled like a leaf.

He was forcibly abducted by Yaoqin. He had tried to resist, but Yaoqin's indifferent gaze shattered all his strength and thoughts of resistance.

Therefore, upon hearing Yaoqin's words, he couldn't help but stammer, "Your Majesty, everything I said is true."

“These are all public facts. If you don’t believe anything, you can ask other people.”

"I really didn't lie."

Upon hearing the words of this sixth-order evil god, Yaoqin indifferently withdrew her gaze.

In fact, this was not the first evil god she captured, nor the first torture she conducted.

After emerging from the White Bird Beach, she flew, captured, and interrogated people along the way. She interrogated at least seven or eight powerful evil gods of the fifth to eighth rank.

And the answers from these evil gods were almost all the same:

Although Qiu Tu is a bit of a womanizer, has a thing for beautiful women, and likes to sleep with other men's wives, he is known for his integrity.

Whether facing enemies or friends and confidants, Qiu Tu always kept his word and never went back on his word.

It was precisely because of this excellent reputation that Qiu Tu was able to so easily subdue various forces.

To be honest, Yaoqin had already anticipated the outcome of this trip even before leaving Bai Niao Tan Tu.

After all, she already knew some of Qiu Tu's deeds from Qiu Tu's enemy, the Western God King.

Moreover, since Qiu Tu dared to send him to investigate, he must have been confident.

It was precisely because of this consideration that Yaoqin chose to believe Qiu Tu and leave the "World Passage".

Now everything has only confirmed her guess.

'In that case...it's not impossible to cooperate with Qiu Tu.'

Thinking about this, Yaoqin couldn't help but recall the empty promises Qiu Tu had made to her.

He was promoted to a second-level God-King; he was allowed to select and cultivate his own direct line of gods; and he shared the resources of this world with her.

All she had to do was not repair the world portal and help block the invasion of the Star Forger God King...

This condition is actually quite fair.

However... all living beings have desires.

Yaoqin was no exception.

In particular, as a god-king who had been thirsty for hundreds of years, her greed was even stronger.

Although she didn't intend to completely exploit Qiu Tu's side, she still wanted to secure more benefits for herself.

After all... she not only holds the reins of the whole affair now, but she is also the strongest person in the entire "Boundless Heart Sea".

It could be said that Qiu Tu and the others held their lives in her hands, and the fate of the entire world rested on her whim. How could such an equal treaty possibly suffice!

She wouldn't covet those gods who had affairs with Qiu Tu, but... shouldn't she get half of the territory? Half of the resources?

When the "Boundless Sea of ​​the Heart" devours a new world in the future, shouldn't it also share half of it?

Even... if she could, she would want to share half of Qiu Tu with her: she hadn't forgotten the boast Qiu Tu had just made in front of her: that he could align with her and fill her up.

She really wanted to see Qiu Tu's abilities.

Her demands weren't high. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays were for Qiu Tu's other women, while Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays were for her. On Sundays, Qiu Tu could rest or go out hunting.

Thinking this, a hint of cunning appeared in her eyes.

Since she still has control of the situation, she can take the opportunity to sign some "unequal treaties" with Qiu Tu.

If Zhao Ji's strength increases over time, she might not have another chance.

'It just so happens that Qiu Tu has a good habit of keeping his promises. I guess this is heaven helping me out.'

Thinking this, Yaoqin came back to her senses. She flicked her finger, and the sixth-order evil god in front of her suddenly stiffened, then slowly collapsed to the ground.

In fact, according to Yaoqin's previous habits, in order to prevent leaks, she would kill those she had interrogated.

But now... these people might become her subordinates in the future, so she didn't kill them, she just knocked them unconscious.
