Then, Let Them Offer Their Loyalty! Chapter 1913 - 762: Qiu Tu Deserves the Greatest Merit
Previously on Then, Let Them Offer Their Loyalty!...
Upon hearing the words of the man in white, Qiu Tu couldn't help but be momentarily taken aback.
Although he knew Zhao Ji had a high talent and advanced quickly, this was too high and too fast, wasn't it?
Qiu Tu recalled for a moment.
He had promised Elina that he would hold off the man in white for four days. It was only the third day, and the seven "Divine Countries Underground" hadn't moved, the great war wasn't over, yet Zhao Ji had already ascended?
Thinking like this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but remember how it took him a full seven days to ascend to God King not long ago, and once again marveled at Zhao Ji's talent.
Is this the speed at which a peerless prodigy advances?
Fast in one step, fast all the way. If it weren't for his unique "Cataclysm Path," he would have been left behind by Zhao Ji long ago, unable to surpass her.
Of course, even though he was shocked by Zhao Ji's talent in his heart, Qiu Tu had to maintain a certain facade in front of the man in white.
"Snap."
He gently placed a black pawn on the chessboard. With the crisp sound of the pawn touching the board, Qiu Tu lightly said, "Zhao Ji's ascension to God King is still a bit slow."
"Once, I was far inferior to her, but now I have already caught up with her."
"So, it shouldn't be her protecting me, but I protecting her instead."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, the man in white showed a faint smile. He glanced at Qiu Tu and then said, "Zhao Ji is no ordinary God King."
Qiu Tu responded, "I am also no ordinary God King."
The man in white chuckled softly and then said, "At the beginning, when she was just a Heavenly God, she went against the world for the sake of some ordinary beings."
"I led several Heavenly Gods to seek an explanation from her."
"Yet with just one move, she made me realize: There is a gap even among Heavenly Gods." (Zhao Ji's side story)
This matter, Qiu Tu had once heard Zhao Ji mention when gathering information about the man in white, so he wasn't surprised. However, he had formed a conjecture at that time. Now, taking advantage of this topic, it was perfect to ask.
So he said, "So ... did you disclose Zhao Ji's situation to the 'Chaos Witch'?"
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, the man in white gave him a knowing smile, neither denying nor affirming it.
But his smile was already the best answer.
Thus, Qiu Tu asked again, "Then... was it not your first reincarnation?"
This topic seemed even more sensitive, so the man in white didn't even give any facial feedback.
He simply picked up a black pawn, placed it lightly on the chessboard, and said with a smile, "Let's continue the game."
Hearing the man in white's words, Qiu Tu smiled without lingering on further queries. Instead, he smoothly picked up a pawn, focused on the chessboard, and continued playing.
Some things don't need to be too clear; it's enough to know them in your heart. Smart people don't need to lay everything bare.
It was just that... confirming that the man in white had reincarnated multiple times, each time with a different "Cataclysm Path," indeed validated one of Qiu Tu's hypotheses...
Could it be that the "Chaos Witch" isn't actually a God King of the "Chaos Path"? Or rather... not just a God King of the "Chaos Path".
For instance... are they gathering the Six Great Paths to merge them into one, completely combining them?
This could also explain why the man in white and Jasmine are not typical of the "Chaos Path" but possess characteristics of many other paths.
And following this line of thought further: the man in white has reincarnated at least twice, so how many times has the Chaos Witch reincarnated?
Could it be that she has already perfected the Six Great Paths, which is why she dominates the entire "Ancient Continent"?
Could this be... the reason why the upper echelons of the "Chaos Camp" are indifferent to the fate of the lower-level chaotic gods?
And also... the secret weapon of the "Chaos Camp," the true path...
Thinking like this, Qiu Tu grew even more cautious of the "Chaos God Kings" represented by the "Chaos Witch."
The man in white mentioned the "Order Temple" seemed to be going insane, but the "Chaos Camp" didn't seem much better.
And with both paths in such a state, what kind of path did Mystery, Immortality, and Destruction follow...?
Thinking this, Qiu Tu's gaze turned somber.
He felt as if he and his group had stepped right into a massive vortex upon arriving at the "Ancient Continent"...
'First, rely on the "Chaos Path" to gain a foothold in the "Order Temple," then move forward step by step...'
Thinking like this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but estimate the time.
Then, as he placed a black pawn on the chessboard, he mused, 'Judging by the time, the "temple" should be wrapping up, and then they'll continue pushing the plot forward, right?'
'Hope nothing unexpected comes up...'
...
Meanwhile, as Qiu Tu played chess with the man in white and hoped for no unexpected twists.
At that moment, in the Wine God Country, a high-level meeting of the "Order Temple" in the west was being convened.
Elina still sat on the long couch, overlooking the 12 high-level individuals projected below, listening to the Star Casting God King's report.
Possibly because the threat of the "Divine Countries Underground" had been mostly resolved, the Star Casting God King's complexion had noticeably improved.
He looked at Elina and respectfully said, "My lady, thanks to your personal intervention, the threat of the seven "Divine Countries Underground" has been completely neutralized."
"Four of them have already reclaimed the "World Channel" and relocated the "World Coordinates," hiding them."
"The remaining three have also reclaimed the "World Channel" and are in the process of relocating."
