The West God King reveals Tian Qi's complex feelings for Zhao Ji, noting his deep admiration mixed with a desire to see her fall. Meanwhile, in Eastern City, Qing Lan and Candle Dance discuss Qiu Tu's rapid advancement and his unusual talent. Qing Lan expresses her acceptance of her current ranking and her decision to prioritize self-preservation, suspecting Qiu Tu might have ulterior motives. Later, Qing Lan receives a summons from Qiu Tu to his villa.

With a simplecknowledgment, Qing Lan moved with her small legs towards the sofa and settled down. A hint of apprehension seemed to linger as she shifted away from Qiu Tu, perhaps suspecting his intentions. Seeing this, Qiu Tu presented a document, inviting her to review its contents. Qing Lan, misunderstanding, declared, "Boss, I sell my skills, not myself!" She insisted that no matter the terms, she wouldn't agree. Qiu Tu paused, observing her before chuckling. He urged her to examine the terms first, advising her not to be too hasty. With a gentle nudge of spiritual power, he slid the papers toward her. Qing Lan hesitantly took the document, intending only to skim it. However, as her eyes scanned the lines, they widened in surprise, drawing her deeper into the text. Her earlier reluctance dissolved as she became engrossed, rereading the document with growing astonishment. Finally, confirming she hadn't misread, she looked up at Qiu Tu, asking, "Is this real?" Qiu Tu, anticipating her reaction, leaned back and calmly affirmed, "Naturally." Qing Lan reread the document with renewed focus. It outlined a method for her rapid advancement from mid-peak Eighth Rank to peak Eighth Rank, including the acquisition of the "Heavenly God Positional Frame." The plan was remarkably detailed, even addressing the critical component for her promotion: the "Boundless Heart Sea Region." It was revealed that Qiu Tu, having secured the "Southwest Region" from the "Fog Hidden Association," now possessed sufficient territory to nurture a peak Eighth Rank Great Evil God. As the leader of the "Human Camp" and a dominant force in the "Edge Region," Qiu Tu held sway over these territories. Thus, the plan was not speculative but entirely achievable. Qing Lan estimated that even if she didn't secure the "Heavenly God Positional Frame," her strength would significantly increase within seven days by following the plan. A conflict played out on her face as she hesitated repeatedly. Eventually, she placed the document down and, with a decisive tone, stated, "Boss, I'm not that sort of person." Qiu Tu regarded her with amusement and replied, "In that case, I suppose I'll have to entrust this task to Candle Dance." He added, "I believe she would be quite keen to contend with Shao Hua for a top three position in the 'Heavenly God Trial.'" Qing Lan looked up sharply at this, her eyes widening. "Compete with Shao Hua for the top three in the 'Heavenly God Trial'?" she questioned. "Right here?" Qiu Tu chuckled, inquiring, "Are you confident?" Qing Lan vigorously shook her head. "No!" she declared emphatically. Then, perhaps fearing the opportunity would be lost, she quickly added, "But I can try!" A subtle smile touched Qiu Tu's lips. 'Excellent, the bait has been taken...' He reflected on his skill as a leader, noting his generosity with subordinates was matched by his talent for presenting appealing opportunities. Furthermore, he understood precisely how to ignite their drive. Offering a reward before assigning a mission, he mused, was far more effective than presenting them simultaneously. With this thought, Qiu Tu turned his attention back to Qing Lan, about to reveal his true objective for the evening. "However, Qing Lan... while you compete with Shao Hua, there are a few additional matters I might need you to attend to...." ----- The final three days of the month have arrived.
