Then, Let Them Offer Their Loyalty! Chapter 1752 - 714: Zhao Ji Shocked by Qiu Tu's Strength
Previously on Then, Let Them Offer Their Loyalty!...
After a moment, Qiu Tu hesitantly said, "You definitely reminded me."
"I think the arrival of the Divine Kings this time might not be as simple as it seems."
Qiu Tu supported his chin, quietly analyzing, "Look."
"Since the 'Divine Cataclysm', it's been hundreds of years, and the Divine Kings have not invaded this world."
"The result was the fall of three Divine Kings, Heavenly Fury just restored the 'World Channel' and disappeared, and then that Divine King couple descended upon this world."
"This indicates that the coordinates of this world were likely leaked recently. That is — leaked by Heavenly Fury."
"And since Heavenly Fury chose to collude with outsiders, it's also possible he leaked your information."
"After all... back then, you withstood two Divine Kings with the power of a peak Heavenly God, earning enough fame and influence."
Speaking of this, Qiu Tu's eyes grew brighter, and his thought process became smoother.
He clenched his right fist, slapped his left hand, and said, "Therefore... this Divine King couple is clearly not here to deal with us."
"But... a vanguard!"
The answer was almost obvious as he speculated to this point.
So, Qiu Tu looked at Zhao Ji and confidently said, "Therefore... they're likely here to find ways to repair the 'World Channel.'
After listening to Qiu Tu's analysis, Zhao Ji was momentarily stunned. Then she looked deeply at Qiu Tu and nodded slightly, "It makes sense."
It must be said that ever since cooperating with Qiu Tu, Zhao Ji found life seemed to open up in 'easy mode'.
No matter how complex or troublesome the matter, Qiu Tu would unravel it seamlessly and find out the truth.
And Qiu Tu could always provide the most suitable advice and plan based on developments.
This made Zhao Ji often accustomed to listening to Qiu Tu for everything.
Though she knew this wasn't a good situation — she was actually falling into Qiu Tu's "gentle trap" bit by bit.
But it must be said, Qiu Tu possessed that kind of charm.
This also made Zhao Ji understand why, despite Qiu Tu being openly blunt and straightforward, many women were willing to 'possess' him temporarily or long-term.
Thinking thusly, Zhao Ji couldn't help but glance at Qiu Tu's face once more.
Qiu Tu, when serious about his work, was exceedingly attractive, reminding Zhao Ji of a verse she once read: standing like a noble orchid or jade tree, smiling like the bright moon embracing.
'No wonder Larilo is so smitten with him....'
Murmuring with silent admiration, Zhao Ji gradually returned to her senses. She looked at Qiu Tu with a cold expression, then asked, "So, what do you think?"
Upon hearing the question, Qiu Tu looked at Zhao Ji and asked, "Sister Zhao Ji, what is your current realm?"
Zhao Ji didn't hide anything, and coolly said, "Elementary Heavenly God. But my real combat power should be comparable to an advanced Heavenly God."
Qiu Tu knowingly nodded.
He said, "Then how long will you need to confidently deal with that couple?"
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhao Ji, like a solitary and proud mountain of ice, radiated unwavering coldness and pride.
"Half a month."
She paused, "I estimate I only need half a month to advance to a mid-level Heavenly God."
"Adding your cataclysmic ability."
"Taking down a first-level Divine King should still be no problem."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu slightly nodded, "Although a bit slow, it should still be acceptable."
If it were anyone else standing in front of Qiu Tu, they might think his 'slow' referred to the time it took to deal with the Divine King.
But who is Zhao Ji?
With her 'Absolute Perception', no subtle emotional change of Qiu Tu's escaped her notice.
So she seemed to recall something, furrowed her brow slightly, and directly reached out to hold Qiu Tu's hand.
Zhao Ji's hand was cold, yet soft.
After a moment, Zhao Ji suddenly paused, then lifted her head, looking at Qiu Tu with some shock.
It must be said this was the first time in years since Qiu Tu met Zhao Ji that he saw her reveal such emotions.
Of course, he also knew why Zhao Ji was so surprised.
So he gently laid Zhao Ji's hand down and straightened his clothes slightly, saying calmly, "I'm no longer the poor boy I used to be."
"In the future, I will protect you."
It must be said, Qiu Tu had deeply absorbed Zhao Ji, the King B*tch's true teachings during this period.
His words were a response to Zhao Ji's earlier 'Do not judge a youth by poverty,' so for a moment she was stunned again.
Looking at Qiu Tu before her, Zhao Ji's eyes flickered continuously, as if recalling all information about Qiu Tu, seeking the cause of Qiu Tu's eruptive advancement of the realm, even exceeding her.
After a moment, Zhao Ji probably had a guess. Her mood gradually calmed.
Given her understanding of the 'Cataclysm Path.' Of course, she guessed the reason for Qiu Tu's rapid advancement of the realm, even surpassing her.
— Now, the whole 'Boundless Heart Sea' changes in situation were indeed too beneficial for Qiu Tu.
Or perhaps... the reason 'Boundless Heart Sea' developed as it did today was due to Qiu Tu intentionally exacerbating and guiding for power.
However, the mind was inherently part of the strength.
Thinking of this, though Zhao Ji's face didn't show, her heart couldn't help but sigh,
'Incredible.... Never thought I'd be left behind by Qiu Tu one day....'
Yet, precisely because of this, Zhao Ji's heart was fueled with intense fighting spirit.
"Ten days."
She looked up at Qiu Tu and reported a new timeframe.
