Previously on Then, Let Them Offer Their Loyalty!...

Qiu Tu studies the "Lifebound Divine Skill" created by Zhao Ji, finding it perfectly suits him. He realizes Zhao Ji modified the skill to integrate the laws of the "Order Path" with the original "Destruction Path" design, allowing him to glimpse the interaction between these paths. Qiu Tu suspects this might be related to Zhao Ji's dual path transformation across her lifetimes.

'So... she can fuse with Larilo? And "Destruction" and "Life" transform into each other?'

'Isn't this the way for the "Chaos Witch" to unite the Six Great Paths?'

In the depths of his mind, Qiu Tu always felt as if he was glimpsing some extraordinary secret and direction.

However, he was currently memorizing the "Disaster Equation Set" and then etching his "Lifebound Divine Skill", so he couldn't think for a while. He could only temporarily suppress all of this within his heart...

In this way, slowly, Qiu Tu completely fell into that Void Spirit State and then swiftly condensed his "Lifebound Divine Skill".....

.....

Meanwhile.

Wine God Country, Execution Department.

The Heavy Stone God King sat on the throne, listening to the Hanhai God King's report.

After Qiu Tu quickly successfully advanced to Second-Level God King, the Heavy Stone God King's already gray complexion became even more somber.

He quietly listened to the Hanhai God King's report, then slowly opened his mouth and said, "Qiu Tu became a Second-Level God King, so can he officially be responsible for the departmental affairs?"

Upon hearing the Heavy Stone God King's words, the Hanhai God King in the hall bent over, clasped his hands, and cautiously said, "Yes, my lord."

"According to the rules, he indeed has the power to participate in departmental affairs."

Speaking of this, the Hanhai God King paused and then said, "However... this of course also needs the head Divine King of the department, which is you....to make the decision."

"If you simply don't like him, then you can withhold specific responsibilities from him, just let him idle."

Upon hearing the Hanhai God King's words, the Heavy Stone God King coldly snorted and said, "This indeed can restrain him, but similarly, it will give people grounds against me! Simply not worth the loss!"

"Moreover, behind him is Elina. Elina has supported him many times."

"If I directly idle him, wouldn't that be a slap in Elina's face?"

Upon hearing the Heavy Stone God King's words, the Hanhai God King smiled and said, "My lord is right."

"My lord indeed has foresight."

Heavy Stone God King: ??

Seeing the Hanhai God King so easily change his stance and support his decision, the Heavy Stone God King instinctively felt something was wrong.

He looked suspiciously at the Hanhai God King, thought carefully for a moment, then pointed at him, "You, you."

"If you're worried I will handle him coldly, just say so. Why play such retreat to advance."

Upon hearing the Heavy Stone God King's words, the Hanhai God King's expression slowly tightened, seriously explaining, "My lord. I just think... regarding Qiu Tu, we seem to be getting more deeply involved."

"Do you still remember who originally had a conflict with Qiu Tu?"

He did not wait for the Heavy Stone God King's answer and instead spoke up for himself, "It was the Star Casting God King."

"At the very beginning, it was the Star Casting God King and Qiu Tu who had a conflict; he told you Qiu Tu was suspected to be a spy. The chaos of his seven 'Underground Divine Countries' was caused by Qiu Tu."

"His guess had some reasoning, and could potentially be true."

"But....look now, it's you confronting Qiu Tu directly, it's you who offended Qiu Tu, and it's you facing Qiu Tu's threat."

"And the Star Casting God King?"

Seeing a trace of bewilderment on the Heavy Stone God King's face, the Hanhai God King continued, "He's hidden."

"Even in the recent incident of 'Chaos Camp' attacking Qiu Tu's confidant, he immediately dragged you to explain to Lady Elina, offering tribute, completely extinguishing the threat."

"Don't you think he's like a slippery eel, using sophisticated means to remove himself from the situation, while borrowing your sword to kill his men?"

"I actually advised you before, but you seem not to have listened. So this time I followed suit to let you discover the problem yourself."

After hearing the Hanhai God King's words, the Heavy Stone God King's face became significantly darker.

He fell into deep thought, his towering figure casting a mountain-like presence over the entire hall, making the atmosphere even more stagnant.

Seeing this, the Hanhai God King did not dare to make any noise but stood silently there, waiting for the Heavy Stone God King to ponder it through.

Like this, as time ticked away, only after half a minute did the Heavy Stone God King slowly speak,

"I understand what you mean."

"But... you should also know that some things are already difficult to undo."

"Now the entirety of the 'Execution Department' is watching him, us, watching the trend, we can no longer voluntarily retreat."

"Once we retreat...."

Pausing here, he seemed moved again by the Hanhai God King's words and stopped.

He paused for a moment, exhaled slightly, and said, "All right, in two days is the 'Execution Department's God King Conference.'

"Then, I will use the momentum, use strength to press him, while you act as a peacekeeper, easing the atmosphere."

"Let him give me a concession, let the God Kings and Heavenly Gods of the 'Execution Department' know that 'Execution Department' is still under our control. Then I... can cease making things difficult for him."

Today, there was some family matter, causing delays until the evening, sorry. I left a message at the end of the previous chapter, informing everyone that it might be late, hopefully not keeping everyone waiting...

Apologies once more.
