Then, Let Them Offer Their Loyalty! Chapter 1904 - 759: Zhao Ji: My Strength Has Declined
Qiu Tu looked down at the Heavenly God Mark given to him by Zhao Ji, which indeed indicated that Zhao Ji was just ahead.
So, after landing on the ground with that Deity, Qiu Tu began pushing towards the inner circle.
Compared to Qiu Tu, that Deity was obviously too weak, so it didn't take long before they fell behind. Soon, Qiu Tu was alone in the front row of the outer circle.
His current strength was not bad, and he was on the territory of the White Robes, so he didn't worry about causing conflicts. He directly extended his spiritual power forward, wanting to inquire about the situation in the inner circle.
The result... unexpectedly, the periphery of the inner circle was enveloped by a strong layer of spiritual power, and his spiritual power simply couldn't break through.
And when contacting that spiritual power, Qiu Tu could feel the aura of darkness, destruction, and catastrophe emanating from it.
'At least a second-level, perhaps third-level Divine King....'
Giving a rough evaluation of the Divine King who released that spiritual power, Qiu Tu slowly retracted his spiritual power and frowned slightly.
Although he always believed in Zhao Ji, considering her the most talented woman in this world, capable of fighting beyond her level as easily as drinking water.
But.... seven or eight Divine Kings, including second and third-level Divine Kings, plus a dozen Heavenly Gods.....
Even if Zhao Ji had three heads and six arms, she couldn't fight them all.
What should be done....
Thinking of this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but ponder how to resolve the current situation.
At this moment, just as Qiu Tu was thinking, intense quarrels suddenly erupted in the inner circle.
A man's strong voice came from the inner circle, "Speak! Who exactly sent you?"
"Killing so many Heavenly Gods, even attempting to assassinate a Divine King, for what purpose?!"
After a moment, the man's voice came again, "Just to advance more quickly?"
"For the sake of advancement, you think you can just slaughter? And.... what urgent matter requires you to advance now?"
"You don't take us for three-year-old children, do you? Speak! What is your true purpose?"
Accompanying the man's words, a woman's scolding voice came, "Keep it down. This array has poor sound insulation, your loud voice can be heard outside."
The woman clearly had a high status, so the inner circle quickly quieted down.
Qiu Tu stood in the front row of the outer circle, craning his neck to look inside.
Under the formation's shroud, the inner circle region appeared covered by a frosted glass effect, completely unclear. One could only see silhouettes moving inside, seemingly starting to act after the quarrel.
Qiu Tu frowned slightly, once again looking at the Heavenly God Mark on his hand.
The Heavenly God Mark indicated Zhao Ji was right in front of him.
'Is it really Zhao Ji under siege? Should I think of a way to help?'
At that moment, just as Qiu Tu was thinking this, suddenly a familiar cold voice sounded in his ear, "Why are you continuously sensing me?"
"Is there something urgent?"
Hearing that cold voice, Qiu Tu was first taken aback, then quickly turned to look beside him.
Only then did he realize that, unbeknownst to him, Zhao Ji in white stood next to him.
After a few days apart, the feeling Zhao Ji gave Qiu Tu had completely changed.
As Qiu Tu's strength grew, he could vaguely sense Zhao Ji's strength.
Though he still had some distance from Zhao Ji, it was no longer unreachable.
However.... seeing Zhao Ji again today, Qiu Tu suddenly felt like before he became a Heavenly God.
—The woman before him seemed once again shrouded in mist, making it impossible to determine her strength.
Possibly due to an increase in strength, Qiu Tu felt Zhao Ji's aura had become more transcendent. Just standing there, she exuded an indescribable sense of distance.
Qiu Tu's gaze might have been too intense, so Zhao Ji turned to look, her brows and eyes with little expression.
"What's the matter?"
Hearing Zhao Ji's words, Qiu Tu finally came back to his senses.
He looked at Zhao Ji and then spoke, "It's nothing."
"I just thought the one being surrounded for killing those Destruction Heavenly Gods was you."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhao Ji calmly said, "How could I be that foolish."
Then she paused, adding, "Even if I were that foolish before, after spending time with you, I wouldn't handle things so crudely."
Qiu Tu pondered Zhao Ji's words, feeling.... Zhao Ji seemed to be complimenting him.
Thinking this, he tilted his head to look at Zhao Ji, her deep and serene eyes, long lashes like frozen frost.
Perhaps because he had been worried about Zhao Ji, now, calming down, Qiu Tu suddenly sensed something amiss.
He softly communicated with his spiritual power, "Did you kill the Heavenly Gods?"
"So.... did you find someone to take the blame?"
"And.... the reason I misunderstood that you were being surrounded is because the 'Heavenly God Mark' sensed you here."
"So.... have you been here watching the commotion?"
Hearing Qiu Tu's questions one after another, Zhao Ji looked at him gently and then slowly said,
"This is rather a long story."
She raised her hand pointing to the inner circle, then said, "All of this is actually related to that person."
A question mark appeared above Qiu Tu's head.
Perhaps realizing Qiu Tu was short on information, Zhao Ji also slowly recounted the events of the past few days.
It turns out.... a few days ago, Zhao Ji and Qiu Tu were both advancing. But while Qiu Tu took nearly a week to advance, Zhao Ji succeeded in less than 3 days.
