Then, Let Them Offer Their Loyalty! Chapter 1975 - 780: Zhao Ji: Qiu Tu Is a Pineapple (Vote for Monthly Ticket)
Previously on Then, Let Them Offer Their Loyalty!...
After he finished the ceremony, he couldn't help but think of the new God King stirring up trouble in the "temple".
Although he didn't dare say it publicly, from the various things that new God King had done recently, he always felt that this new God King was not a simple character.
He evaluated that person as a troublemaker....
But bear in mind, those who can stir up storms are either dragons or tigers....
.....
Meanwhile.
In the "Chaotic Western Capital", there were two other people.... no, it should be "one person" evaluating Qiu Tu.
"Sister, what do you really think of Qiu Tu?"
In a forest of wild growth, a young girl in a black dress stood silently. Like a dark flame, she was both evil and eye-catching.
Her face was deathly pale, like a jade mask carved by the spirit, possessing an eerie beauty. More importantly, her eyes, crimson, deep and indifferent, were like a bottomless abyss.
Beneath her feet lay several Deity corpses. Her hand was pressing on those corpses, as if devouring their "Cataclysm Path".
There was no one else around, so it was obvious the earlier words were spoken by her.
Strangely, after saying those words, she suddenly began a "self-questioning and self-answering" session.
Only, compared to the earlier lively and playful voice, her voice this time was clear and much more composed.
Clearly.... this was Larilo and Zhao Ji, two sisters temporarily fused together.
At this time, hearing Larilo's question, memories of meeting and being with Qiu Tu over the years flashed through Zhao Ji's mind.
After a moment, she gave a cold assessment,
"Qiu Tu....? A pineapple."
"Pineapple?" Larilo clearly didn't understand.
"Mm." Zhao Ji responded nonchalantly, then said, "Yellow and cunning."
Hearing Zhao Ji's assessment, Larilo couldn't help but laugh.
Obviously, she also found Zhao Ji's appraisal of Qiu Tu to be very apt.
But after laughing, Larilo did not forget her "main story" of the past two years.
In the depths of her soul, her crimson eyes flickered with a hint of slyness, and then she asked, "But I feel like he really likes you, and you are gradually liking him too."
Hearing Larilo's words, Zhao Ji seemed to be caught in her own thoughts and paused for a moment.
After a moment, she said calmly, "My liking him is his luck. His liking me is my charm."
"Those are completely different concepts."
Larilo: .....
To be honest, although she often heard of her sister's "King B*tch" evaluation from Qiu Tu's mouth, perhaps Zhao Ji rarely showed off in front of Larilo, so Larilo didn't have much impression.
Now, witnessing Zhao Ji's act of showing off in person, Larilo was taken aback.
At that moment, she particularly wanted to crack open her sister's skull to see what structure was inside that could produce so much showy and cheeky speech.
And just then, as Larilo was thinking this, Zhao Ji suddenly spoke again.
"It's done."
Larilo was startled and immediately reacted. She joyfully said, "Did you gather enough 10 Destruction Heavenly Gods in just one day?"
Zhao Ji responded with a simple "Mm".
Larilo instantly became extremely happy, "The two of us are really impressive."
Zhao Ji: .....
Since the two were essentially one now, Larilo saying this wasn't wrong. So Zhao Ji didn't correct her.
She simply patted her hands, straightened up, then looked into the distance and said, "However, this isn't enough."
"This kind of major chaos is hard to come by. Within the limits of my body and soul, I must quickly improve my strength."
"Only this way can I deal with the upcoming crisis. And....."
After saying "and", Zhao Ji stopped her speech.
Larilo, with a curious mark above her little head, clearly didn't understand what the incomplete sentence was about.
But Zhao Ji clearly didn't wish to explain.
She said calmly, "Go kill 10 more."
After speaking, there was no action seen from her. The plants under her feet rose upward as if they had life, lifting her up, and she disappeared from the entire forest....
In the tranquil forest, only her thoughts were left....
And.... protecting Qiu Tu....
.....
Thus, quickly, two days passed by in the blink of an eye.
During these two days, Qiu Tu stayed in his room in closed cultivation, never stepping out even once.
At first, Qiu Tu's confidants were a bit worried, not knowing what happened to make Qiu Tu immediately go into closed cultivation right after being promoted to a Level 2 God King.
This kind of anomaly inevitably made people think. For example.... was there an issue with the cultivation?
Especially those affiliated Heavenly Gods who recently pledged allegiance to Qiu Tu.
They had just bound themselves with Qiu Tu and were not fully familiar yet, and then such a thing happened, so they were inevitably anxious.
At the crucial moment, it was Guan Xiao who stepped up.
In her role as Qiu Tu's deputy, she gathered everyone and made up a reason:
Qiu Tu had a sense after just being promoted to a Level 2 God King, and was in the process of creating a Heavenly God Skill, which was why he went into emergency closed cultivation.
Guan Xiao didn't know the content of the Image Stone nor what happened to Qiu Tu. But she knew that if the rumors were left to spread, it would only affect Qiu Tu's prestige.
So fabricating a positive reason, turning a bad situation into a good one, could at least stabilize the group.
As for what to do if Qiu Tu hadn't learned the "Heavenly God Skill" when he came out?
Once Qiu Tu emerged.... would the presence or absence of "Heavenly God Skill" even matter?
