Then, Let Them Offer Their Loyalty! Chapter 1768 - 718: The Fully Ripened Peach
When Yao Qin gets tired, she often retreats into the "Golden House," lying among her possessions to recuperate.
As for the desire for control, it's even simpler. Although Tang Lang was propped up by Yao Qin, with his current strength, he actually holds a significant position in the "Star Casting God King" faction.
Normally, a competent leader would gradually grant freedom and status commensurate with his abilities.
But Yao Qin did not do so. On the contrary, she still treated Tang Lang as her Star Fury. She exploited him daily, like an insatiable perpetual motion machine.
Tang Lang himself suffered in silence. Yet this pain was not something he could share with others.
The most painful thing for him every day was going home and being alone with Yao Qin.
Even meeting the "Star Casting God King" or carrying out tasks had become a kind of relaxation.
It was precisely by establishing this model of the Goddess Queen's character that Qiu Tu was able to make targeted moves.
Exploiting Yao Qin's desire for control and her dislike of the weak, he constantly used Tang Lang's face to talk about revenge, stirring Yao Qin's rebellion and impatience.
'As long as it is a living being, there are weaknesses in character. And these weaknesses are often the easiest to exploit.'
Thinking this, Qiu Tu slowly came back to his senses.
While pretending to recuperate, he observed Yao Qin.
One must admit, Yao Qin truly is a woman full of charisma.
If a single adjective must be used to describe her, it would probably be "a ripe peach."
As a matured woman, her every move exudes the charm of a mature woman.
Combined with her status as a God King, her demeanor, as well as her height and physique, she immediately gives the impression of a mature aunt or a mature teacher.
At that moment, however, this mature woman did not notice Qiu Tu's gaze. After scolding Qiu Tu, she got up and began examining the surroundings.
After confirming the surrounding situation, Yao Qin looked at Qiu Tu and then began to speak, "Previously, our plan was for you to divert this world's 'Heavenly God's' attention, while I quietly repaired the 'World Channel.'"
"It now seems that this plan has failed."
"Most likely, this world's 'Heavenly God' had already discovered us when we descended into this world."
"Therefore, we might need to change our plan."
Qiu Tu's undercover mission beside Yao Qin was to gather information about their plans, so upon hearing Yao Qin's words, he naturally followed up, "What will the new plan be?"
Yao Qin's face showed a thoughtful expression upon hearing Qiu Tu's question, then she spoke, "I intend for you to repair the 'World Channel.'"
"And I will assist from the side."
"Should you be discovered by those 'Heavenly Gods' again, I will step in to divert them, giving you ample time."
At this point, Yao Qin explained her reasoning for this approach.
She said, "Currently, in the eyes of those 'Heavenly Gods,' you are already dead."
"So, they won't know you're still alive and doing such an important thing."
"Meanwhile, since I've been exposed, I can no longer hide my identity."
"More importantly, you've already proven you are not their match. So if you appear to draw them away, you're likely to fall into their trap again, losing another life."
"As for me, given that I am a God King, even if they are exceptionally talented, they cannot surpass me in just a couple of months."
"This way, I can easily hold them off, creating time for you. Perhaps...even counterattack them."
Hearing Yao Qin's analysis, Qiu Tu's expression remained calm, but inside he was overjoyed.
Under normal circumstances, Yao Qin's analysis would be correct.
But the issue is… there is no one normal by Qiu Tu's side!
There's the expert idler Qing Lan; Candle Dance, who fell in some bygone era and has been reincarnated now; the enchanting Doris; and, most importantly, Qiu Tu's golden thigh, Zhao Ji.
Given a few days, Zhao Ji would show Yao Qin what it means: even among God Kings, there is disparity.
Originally, Qiu Tu was pondering how to sabotage Yao Qin's plan. Now that Yao Qin had given him the crucial task of repairing the "World Channel," it would be incredibly easy for Qiu Tu to interfere.
He just needed to slightly delay, creating ample time for Zhao Ji.
Thinking this, Qiu Tu nodded and then said to Shao Hua, "I think Qin Qin, your idea is indeed more fitting."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Yao Qin nodded slightly and said, "Since that's the case, let's execute according to this plan."
With that, she looked at Qiu Tu and asked, "How do you feel now?"
Qiu Tu's "Punishment Divine Domain" allowed him to transform into Tang Lang, and naturally, it also allowed him to adjust his physical condition slightly.
While Qiu Tu was absorbing the "Boundless Divine Crystal" to heal earlier, he had secretly adjusted his state, making him feel much better than before the healing.
At least, the half of his body that was broken, including his hands and legs, had slowly grown back.
Therefore, hearing Yao Qin's question, Qiu Tu slightly nodded and then said, "I have recovered mostly."
Yao Qin was clearly a decisive person, and hearing Qiu Tu say this, she said, "In that case, let's stop healing for now."
"Once we arrive at the 'World Channel,' and set up the Array, you can resume healing."
"This place is too close to those 'Heavenly Gods' that attacked you. It's easy for them to find us."
With that, she abruptly lifted Qiu Tu and, in a flash, headed in another direction.
