Then, Let Them Offer Their Loyalty! Chapter 1958 - 775: Qing Er: Lord Qiu Tu's Boundless Future (Seeking Monthly Ticket)

When Qing Er returned to her own side hall, the Star Casting God King and the Heavy Stone God King were already waiting there.

It was obvious that this was not their first time doing such a thing. After Qing Er exchanged a few polite words with the two God Kings and led them inside, they directly took out a card-like storage type "Cataclysmic Treasure" from their pockets.

Qing Er took the two "Cataclysmic Treasures" and used her spiritual power to probe inside. After confirming the quantities were correct, she took out a document and wrote down the specific numbers on the final spoils.

Evidently, this was the report of the operation.

If one looks more carefully at the report in her hands, they would discover... it had already been documented that Qiu Tu collaborated with the Star Casting God King and Heavy Stone God King for this plan.

Clearly, before the two God Kings came to find Elina, Qing Er, or rather Elina, had already predicted their arrival, and understood their purpose, and even... had prepared accordingly.

After handing over the spoils, the two God Kings did not linger and left the side hall.

Following Elina's instructions, Qing Er divided the spoils into four parts. She kept her own share, set aside Elina's, and placed Qiu Tu's share separately in a storage-type Treasure.

Having finished all this, Qing Er also got up and left the side hall to find Qiu Tu.

She first went to the courtyard where Qiu Tu resided.

As a middle layer of the "temple" West Branch, Qiu Tu had several courtyards in the "Wine God Country" as places to stay.

Apart from the small courtyard where he lived, the surrounding courtyards were also reserved for Qiu Tu, to accommodate his confidants.

Just as she reached the outside of this small courtyard, Qing Er sensed a vague feeling. She looked towards the two adjacent courtyards.

In her perception, the other two small courtyards housed three quasi-Heavenly Gods advancing in rank.

If she guessed correctly, it should be the three confidants Qiu Tu brought this time, named Guan Xiao, Zhi Yan, and Li Feng.

During an advancement, certain traits often manifest, and it might even be possible to discern the "Cataclysm Path".

'Two Life and one Order?'

After silently making a judgment in her heart, Qing Er arrived at the small courtyard where Qiu Tu stayed and knocked on the door.

The door was opened by an unfamiliar maid, evidently a confidant who had come with the main force to the "Ancient Continent".

Qing Er stated her purpose, but the maid said Qiu Tu was not home and had gone to the "Execution Department".

In an instant, Qing Er guessed why Qiu Tu went to the "Execution Department", likely to recruit affiliated Heavenly Gods and advance to Secondary God King.

Coincidentally, she was curious about how Qiu Tu would select his confidants, so after expressing her thanks, she turned and headed to the "Execution Department".

On the way to the "Execution Department", Qing Er couldn't help but recall the intelligence received a few days ago.

According to the reports, to create difficulties for Qiu Tu and delay his progress, the Heavy Stone God King and the Star Casting God King specially bribed and arranged for several Heavenly Gods to apply to become affiliated Heavenly Gods under Qiu Tu.

These Heavenly Gods were all highly capable and ranked at the top of evaluations in the "Heavenly God Temple".

If Qiu Tu chose ten Heavenly Gods based on capability, he would very likely select them.

In this way, they would quietly enter Qiu Tu's team, helping the Star Casting God King and Heavy Stone God King gather intelligence.

This selection process was extremely important for Qiu Tu.

If he made poor choices, it could even negatively affect Qiu Tu's future foundation.

Qing Er had considered whether to remind Qiu Tu about this, but she remembered Elina's longstanding teaching: "A wise head doesn't poke into everything."

As Elina's chief steward, she was one with Elina, who constantly imparted to her many truths and power skills of those in superior positions through word and deed.

As a superior, one must not let subordinates' conflicts become too intense, while also turning a blind eye to both open and covert struggles among subordinates.

After all, if everything below is too solid, it's the superior who risks being usurped.

The grasp of this balance is exceptionally subtle.

Hence, for new forces like Qiu Tu, Elina would give certain support and assistance to help him grow, but similarly, she would not intervene in everything, and would pretend not to notice the counteractions of the Star Casting and Heavy Stone God Kings.

As long as the two sides didn't fall out completely involving life and death, everything could be overlooked.

As for Qiu Tu's "foundation" being mixed with sand by the two God Kings, what could be done?

Considering Qiu Tu's talent and prospects, coupled with Elina's support, wouldn't he in the future become another Heavy Stone God King?

At that point, the one needing to be balanced will also include him....

Contemplating the entire matter according to Elina's ideology, Qing Er proceeded towards the "Execution Department".

Just as she entered the side hall of the "Execution Department", she heard the voice of "Turtle Prime Minister" Han Hai God King, "Lord Qiu Tu, do you really not need to review the data one more time and chat with the Heavenly Gods hoping to join you?"

"Isn't your selection a bit too hasty...?"

Immediately following was Qiu Tu's voice, "Hasty? No, Lord Han Hai, this is the result of my careful consideration."

Han Hai God King's voice carried evident confusion, "The result of careful consideration?"

Qiu Tu responded with an "Hmm", then smiled and said, "I'm the kind of person who dislikes looking at glorified data and listening to Heavenly Gods promote themselves."
