Let them offer their loyalty!-Chapter 1447 - 623: Princess Xi Returns to the Fold

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Princess Xi immediately displayed a stunning smile on her face.

She blinked her sapphire blue eyes gently and then said, "I invited you here?"

She parted her crimson lips and mocked, "Speaker Qiu, don't make false accusations. You could also choose to communicate with Yan Chen."

Hearing this, Qiu Tu immediately laughed.

He spoke frankly, "How could an old man compare to the fragrance of you, Princess?"

Hearing Qiu Tu's irreverent words, Princess Xi's eyebrows arched slightly, but she did not respond.

She placed the intelligence report in her hand aside and then said, "Speaker Qiu, visiting so late at night, you must have some questions for me?"

Qiu Tu did not deny it. As he approached Princess Xi, he said, "Indeed."

He said, "You, along with Kou Xuan and Yan Chen, have turned the 'Northwestern Region'—no, the entire Human Camp—upside down recently."

"Don't you think there's something you should explain to me?"

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, a hint of surprise appeared on Princess Xi's face.

She was already one of the most beautiful women Qiu Tu had ever seen. With a high-bridged nose, deep-set eyes, and skin as white as snow, her exotic appeal added to her charm.

She gazed deeply into Qiu Tu's eyes with her sapphire blue ones and then said imposing, "Kou Xuan said you could guess all of this, but I didn't believe it."

"He said you could not only predict all of this but even find Yan Chen, who was hiding in the shadows, which neither I nor Yan Chen believed."

"Yet, surprisingly... you actually guessed everything, and even found Yan Chen."

Hearing Princess Xi's words, Qiu Tu smiled, casually dragged a chair behind himself, and sat down.

Then he said with a smile, "I didn't find this hard to guess."

"Even... I can probably guess Yan Chen's and Kou Xuan's thoughts."

"The only thing I can't figure out is you. Why would someone with your personality get involved in this?"

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Princess Xi rested her hands on the desk and asked with interest, "Then why don't you tell me why Kou Xuan and Yan Chen would get involved in this plan?"

Perhaps having regained power and becoming the most influential woman in the entire 'Northwestern Region', Princess Xi, whether in speech or action, exuded confidence. Even in front of Qiu Tu, she spoke with assurance.

Qiu Tu didn't mind. He began analyzing, "Yan Chen and Kou Xuan are true political creatures. To them, benefits outweigh everything else."

"The reason they chose me is nothing more than feeling they could gain more benefits from me."

Qiu Tu paused and said, "The Second Sanctuary is too far from other Human Sanctuaries and too close to the Evil God. The situation is too complex."

"Moreover, with their history of enslaving humans and being traitors, no one knows how effective their promises are."

"In comparison... my reputation is impeccable across the entire 'Northwestern Region'."

"Anyone who sincerely relies on me, I never let them suffer. If I have a morsel to eat, my brothers will have the second bite!"

"Also... the Second Sanctuary has three major Eighth Rank Heavenly Kings backing it, developed over fifty or sixty years with tangled interests."

"Considering the weak strength of no Sixth Rank in the three major Sanctuaries of the 'Northwestern Region', truly relying on the Second Sanctuary, they would likely be divided up by a group of Sixth and Seventh Rank super experts."

"In comparison, I'm just starting out with very few people at my disposal. Even though they missed my initial angel investment, investing now will definitely bring about tremendous returns."

"Furthermore, I already possess strength above the Seventh Rank, and have a profound Zhao Ji by my side. Even if not an opponent to the Second Sanctuary, we should manage just to protect ourselves temporarily."

At this point, Qiu Tu shrugged and said, "So... after thinking through it, they ultimately chose me, and that's not surprising."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Princess Xi's smile grew more pronounced, "You really haven't let us down."

"I now feel that our final decision to join your camp seems like it wasn't wrong after all."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu then responded, "Are you ready to share your thoughts?"

Qiu Tu didn't speak too directly, but Princess Xi instantly understood his implication.

Though Princess Xi was a typical political animal, always considering interests first, she was also a woman who 'sees revenge as everything'."

She had faced too much betrayal in her life, shaping her vengeful personality.

Her cooperation with Qiu Tu, though generally positive, still involved quite a few pits Qiu Tu dug against her.

According to her previous nature, even if she didn't retaliate against Qiu Tu, she shouldn't have trusted or aligned with him.

That's why Qiu Tu inquired in such a manner.

At this moment, hearing Qiu Tu's question, Princess Xi looked at him plainly and said, "What if I told you... I just believe this plan can accomplish something I want to do?"

Qiu Tu responded with an "Oh?" and asked curiously, "What thing?"

Princess Xi said, "Disrupt the Third Sanctuary."

She said with deep eyes, "All this time, I've been investigating the origin of the Lin Family's 'Butterfly Gu'."

"As a result, I found out the Third Sanctuary is actually the source of the 'Butterfly Gu'."

"Back then, the Lin Family went to the Third Sanctuary to exchange and learn technology unintentionally leading to the development of the 'Butterfly Gu'." (Chapter 600)
