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

Qiu Tu denies practicing the Heavenly God Skill and claims to be cultivating the Innate Divine Technique instead. This stuns the other Divine Kings, who doubt his claim given his low cultivation level.

Although he was somewhat shocked by Qiu Tu's seclusion for the "Lifebound Divine Skill," he knew even more that his task now was to control the situation!

So, he gave Qiu Tu a deep look and encouraged, "If Qiu Tu God King's seclusion was to create the 'Lifebound Divine Skill,' it would be a great blessing for our 'Execution Department.'

"But now... it's the time for the 'God King Conference,' so let's have the meeting first."

After speaking, he gently tapped the table, then looked at the Han Hai God King and said, "Continue."

The words of the Heavy Stone God King sounded like encouragement at first glance, but a closer examination reveals that the keyword of his whole sentence was "if."

That is to say, everything hinges on the possibility that Qiu Tu may not be lying.

But... who knows whether Qiu Tu is lying or not?

So... it actually seemed more like a suspicion.

The God Kings present were essentially seasoned individuals, so they easily grasped the underlying meaning in the words of the Heavy Stone God King.

So, for a moment, the exchanges of glances among the God Kings became more frequent.

At this moment, the Han Hai God King also perceptively noticed that the atmosphere in the hall had reversed once again, so he did not give Qiu Tu a chance to retaliate or respond, directly picking up the report and reading it steadily.

Soon, the entire hall was filled with the monotonous voice of Han Hai God King.

In an instant, the originally unsettled hall returned to calm.

However, unlike the calm before Qiu Tu entered the hall, this calm was more like the calm before the storm.

Everyone knew that since Qiu Tu had come to the "God King Conference," he intended to do something. And everyone also knew that the side of the Heavy Stone God King did not actually want Qiu Tu to come to the "God King Conference."

No matter the reason now, since both parties were already seated at the "God King Conference," conflict was inevitable.

To the "Execution Department," which was as stagnant as dead water, this was a grand drama not seen in a century, so no one wanted to miss this moment of collision between both parties.

The Han Hai God King spoke in a calm tone, as if reciting scriptures, "According to the instructions from the 'Divine Hall Headquarters,' for the next few years, our main focus will be on infiltrating the 'Immortal Heavenly Tomb.'

"According to intelligence, two High Order God Kings from the 'Immortal Heavenly Tomb' have arrived in the 'West,' plotting something unknown."

"Although the 'Immortal Pathway' does not belong to the upper pathways, its combat power is impressive, and coupled with their adversarial relationships with various major pathways… they've always been our key concern."

"This mission will be taken on by the Cold Wing God King..."

While Han Hai God King was detailing the mission, Qiu Tu listened silently on the side.

Unlike what others thought, Qiu Tu really didn't intend to stir up trouble today. Because in a certain sense, as long as he showed up successfully, acting as if he achieved something, it already meant he had torn open a gap in the oppressive rule of the Heavy Stone God King.

Although he indeed successfully learned the "Lifebound Divine Skill" created for him by Zhao Ji, his strength still fell short compared to the Heavy Stone God King.

Therefore, he didn't need to continue provoking the Heavy Stone God King at this moment.

With such a good mindset, throughout the following meeting, Qiu Tu remained almost silent, sitting there quietly like a mascot, not speaking, not expressing any opinions, nor making any moves.

Initially, the God Kings present still paid attention to Qiu Tu, wanting to see if he intended to build momentum secretly to take a big move later.

As time passed, seeing Qiu Tu still not reacting, they gradually put their thoughts back and continued to indulge in passivity.

Hence, in this peculiar atmosphere, the entire meeting ended quickly, with nothing happening.

The Han Hai God King had been on edge while reading the report and explaining the work arrangements.

But gradually, seeing Qiu Tu seemed genuinely without any intention of causing trouble, he put his mind at ease.

So, when other God Kings spoke up later, his thoughts wandered more and more.

Did Qiu Tu... really create a "Heavenly Destiny Divine Skill"?

Doesn't he understand the power and importance of the "Heavenly Destiny Divine Skill"?

Why... didn't he take the opportunity to do something, continue to challenge the position of the Heavy Stone God King?

Thinking of this, a thought similar to that of all God Kings earlier emerged in Han Hai God King's mind: Could Qiu Tu... be joking?

Actually... his seclusion wasn't because of the "Lifebound Divine Skill"?

Ruined, it's getting later and later...
