Qiu Tu ambushed the Chaos Heavenly Gods and Divine Kings who were led by Jasmine, resulting in their swift defeat. Jasmine realized Qiu Tu had manipulated her, sending her away while he prepared his forces. As the battle concluded, Qiu Tu approached Larilo and the other women, sharing an intimate moment with Larilo.

Seeing this warm scene, Li Feng's eyes showed envy, while Guan Xiao and Zhi Yan Heavenly King remained unresponsive, merely smiling.

For the women and confidants beside Qiu Tu, these past times were filled with uncertainty.

No one knew if, after Qiu Tu went to the "Ancient Continent" and became a Divine King, there would be new confidants and women.

They also didn't know how Qiu Tu viewed his old acquaintances.

Qiu Tu sent people to deliver the "Heavenly God Positional Frame" to bring them to the "Ancient Continent," which only slightly calmed their minds.

Now, seeing Qiu Tu treat Larilo the same as before made them completely at ease.

Qiu Tu keenly detected the change in mood of his women, so after setting Larilo down, he smiled individually at a few of them.

However, what he didn't notice was that when he was being intimate with Larilo, although Jasmine's expression remained unchanged, her eyes seemed to be on fire!

This skirmish was quick to start and quick to end.

Under the overwhelming strength of both sides, everything soon settled into dust.

Zhao Ji returned to Qiu Tu's side, while the other Order God Kings and Heavenly Gods held the "Chaos Camp" God Kings and Heavenly Gods at a distance, waiting.

"This time, we captured 3 Chaos God Kings, 16 Chaos Heavenly Gods, and nearly a hundred other low-rank deities."

Upon hearing Zhao Ji's concise report, Qiu Tu nodded slightly.

His gaze swept over the Order God Kings and Heavenly Gods who followed him on the mission. Their faces were all beaming with smiles.

The "Order Temple" is a very well-organized entity and ties the strength of the Order Gods to the organizational level.

This leads to achievements equating to strength within the "Temple."

Although these achievements aren't as significant as Elina's in reclaiming the lost lands of the seven Divine Countries, they are still considerable.

Most importantly, the entire operation was a complete overpowering, hence simple and safe.

This is precisely the kind of action the Heavenly Gods and Divine Kings enjoy the most.

Thus, visibly, the loyalty of these Heavenly Gods increased somewhat. Generally rising from a little over 30 to between 35 and 40.

While this is because they are currently Qiu Tu's temporary subordinates, bound by the system,

it is indeed a good start. At least... it will make choosing the remaining 10 Heavenly God vassals much easier for Qiu Tu.

Thinking this, Qiu Tu's gaze lingered on the dozen or so Heavenly Gods whose loyalty reached around 40. He took note of their appearances and recalled their names, planning to make further selections later.

After completing this, he withdrew his gaze, then raised his hand, and commanded, "Return to the Divine Country."

With the command given, the group proceeded grandly toward the "Wine God Country".....

Qiu Tu's operation wasn't particularly secretive.

After all, such a large-scale action is easy to hide from the "Chaos Camp," but quite difficult to conceal from other Order God Kings and Heavenly Gods.

So, when the group returned grandly to the "Wine God Country," all departments of the "Temple" West Branch and various other forces were paying attention.

When it was discovered that they indeed achieved a great victory, capturing over a hundred deities, various messages quickly began to spread throughout the entire West Branch.

The Heavy Stone God King and the Hanhai God King were among the first to know of this news.

A few days back, they were slightly dissatisfied when they learned the "Star Casting Divine System" did not intervene personally but rather used the "Chaos Camp" to strike.

However, later, upon knowing that Qiu Tu had mobilized over a hundred Heavenly Gods to lay an ambush, they were relieved the "Star Casting Divine System" did not act.

Now, everything has merely reached a settled conclusion.

Thus, when facing reports from subordinates, they just waved their hands and said, "Understood."

Compared to them, the Heavenly Gods of the "Execution Department" were evidently much more excited.

To the higher-ups, this victory might not seem like a big deal, but for those in the middle layer, it represented many different meanings.

For example... Qiu Tu being able to mobilize troops on a large scale indicates he indeed has Elina's trust.

For instance... Qiu Tu being able to complete such a simple, safe, and yet highly credit-worthy mission proves Qiu Tu's capability.

Moreover.... Qiu Tu truly brought his team and holds Elina's specially approved "Heavenly God Positional Frame," capable of cultivating a few staunch Heavenly Gods. This is the posture of dominion!

Therefore, in just a few short days, everyone's attitude and judgment towards Qiu Tu made a nearly 180-degree turn. All believed they were witnessing the rise of a new political star.

Nevertheless, amid such circumstances, after imprisoning the captives, disbanding the team, and returning the mobilization documents to Divine King Qing Er, Qiu Tu returned to his residence, preparing to continue handling the aftermath of the affair.

Outwardly surrounded by blossoms, only he knew he was actually cooking oil on a raging fire. A slightest misstep, and all could be lost.

After returning to his room, the first person Qiu Tu summoned was Guan Xiao.

Led by a maid, Guan Xiao stepped lightly into Qiu Tu's room.

After the maid withdrew, Guan Xiao closed the door behind her and approached Qiu Tu.

Qiu Tu looked up at her.

Time seemed to have lost its magic on this woman. After months apart, Guan Xiao appeared even younger than the last time they met.

Her skin appeared delicate and smooth, her features refined like artwork, and her eyes sparkled with a glimmer of cunning and wisdom, all of which made Qiu Tu reminisce about the beauty of this girl once more.
