Let them offer their loyalty!-Chapter 1577 - 659: Showing Off in Front of Zhao Ji

So, once you control Shu Xia, it's equivalent to controlling the Si Yuan Pavilion, controlling the Tree Demon clan.

And the Tree Demon clan is one of the top forces in the Northern Kingdom, and a direct line of the Northern Divine King. It has massive strategic value.

What's even more important is..... Everyone in the Si Yuan Pavilion who participated in the Heavenly God Trial, except for Man Huang and Shu Xia, has perished....

At that time, when the Heavenly God Trial is over, and the two return to Si Yuan Pavilion, won't the account of this trial be entirely subject to what the two choose to say?

So… in theory, as long as Man Huang is conquered, as long as Shu Xia is controlled, Qiu Tu can indirectly control the Si Yuan Pavilion.

Thinking this way, Qiu Tu's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

At this moment, sitting beside him was Zhao Ji, quietly watching him.

Their relationship had grown quite familiar by now, so seeing Qiu Tu's eyes light up, Zhao Ji knew that Qiu Tu was up to some mischief again.

Unlike some of the high-ranking members of the Human Race who thought Qiu Tu's scheming ways were bad, Zhao Ji believed this was Qiu Tu's talent.

The purpose of "battle" is to destroy the enemy. Whether using "force" or "mind" to destroy the enemy in battle, it is considered normal.

Then..... when destroying the enemy with "mind" before the battle begins, why wouldn't that be normal?

In a way, being able to turn an enemy into a friend or a foe into a corpse, even before the battle, is indeed the mark of the strongest expert.

It's precisely because of noticing Qiu Tu's talent in this area that Zhao Ji became more tolerant of him, and would go to great lengths to involve Qiu Tu in the Heavenly God Trial.

And now looking back, Zhao Ji inviting such a seemingly weak Qiu Tu to participate in the Heavenly God Trial turned out to be a brilliant move.

After all, without Qiu Tu, even with her talent, experience, and combat power, she would likely be struggling now.

Unable to see even the faintest glow of victory as she does now.

Thinking this way, Zhao Ji did not disturb Qiu Tu but closed her eyes and calmly resumed her cultivation.

Qiu Tu noticed Zhao Ji immersing herself in cultivation again, so he wasn't in a rush, and simply continued to work on his plans to infiltrate the Northern Kingdom through Shu Xia and Man Huang....

In this way, one focused on cultivation, the other on deduction, with time passing second by second, surprisingly harmonious.

During the deduction, Qiu Tu also spared a thought about his current relationship with Zhao Ji.

No matter how indifferent Zhao Ji appeared outwardly, it couldn't change the fact that their relationship was getting closer.

Not to mention her playful attitude towards him today, just the fact that Zhao Ji cultivated without any guard in front of Qiu Tu displayed their relationship.

For Catastrophe beings, cultivation is always the most private and dangerous matter.

Not even mentioning the risk of being attacked during cultivation, but even unintentional interruptions could have irreversible consequences.

Yet, Zhao Ji now could confidently cultivate beside Qiu Tu.

This trust, isn't it much like a puppy exposing its belly to its master?

Accompanied by this thought from Qiu Tu, for a moment, the temperature of the entire cultivation room seemed to drop ten degrees.

In the next second, Zhao Ji's countdown echoed beside Qiu Tu's ear, "Three."

Qiu Tu coughed, quickly twisting and climbing out of bed, saying, "Sister Zhaoji, misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding."

"That was just a metaphor."

Zhao Ji, seeming like she really doesn't have mind reading skills, coldly looked at Qiu Tu upon hearing his words and then asked, "What metaphor?"

Qiu Tu hesitated for a moment, eyes shifting, then chuckled and said, "I just thought the two of us on the bed together seemed like husband and wife."

At hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhao Ji glanced at him calmly, "Liar."

"If that's all it was, your soul's wave wouldn't have been so filthy at that moment."

Qiu Tu:…..

What could Qiu Tu say? He could only pretend to be embarrassed and continue to spin his yarn, "Husband and wife, especially on the bed. It's bound to...."

Though he left his sentence unfinished, the implication was clear enough.

Zhao Ji:…..

Her eyes, as deep and cold as an abyss, glanced at Qiu Tu coldly and said, "Next time if you let your thoughts run wild, I'll dig out your brain."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu quickly laughed and flattered her, "Sister Zhaoji, this really isn't my fault."

"Who made you so pretty, and so powerful, making me involuntarily attracted, and then start imagining things."

Though Zhao Ji was appreciative of flattery, not all types could win her over. She snorted coldly, giving Qiu Tu the evaluation, "Smooth talker."

However, despite such poor evaluation, she clearly chose not to delve into the matter further. She waved her hand saying, "If there's nothing else, leave me be. Stop interrupting my cultivation."

Upon hearing Zhao Ji's words, Qiu Tu cheerfully replied "Mm," then said, "Alright, Sister Zhaoji, if you need anything, call me anytime."

Having said that, Qiu Tu turned to leave.

While Zhao Ji also closed her eyes, preparing to cultivate again.

As it turns out, just in that instant, Qiu Tu suddenly turned around again.

He looked at Zhao Ji and with a smile said, "Right, Sister Zhaoji. Could you hand me Man Huang's Heaven Seal for a bit?"

"I need her for my upcoming schemes."

Upon hearing Qiu Tu, Zhao Ji with her eyes closed, showed no expression and said, "You haven't learned the Prison Heaven Seal, even if I give you the Heaven Seal, you can't use it."
