Chapter 1786: Chapter 723: Zhao Ji: Sorry for the Trouble

Yao Qin said without hesitation, "Second-tier God King."

She was just about to explain the reason.

But Qiu Tu said, "What if I can make it to the second-tier God King?"

Yao Qin was taken aback for a moment.

Qiu Tu continued, "For a God King to advance one tier, they need to devour and subdue 10 Heavenly Gods."

"You have devoured 17 Heavenly Gods in total, and you need 3 more to advance to the second tier."

"The ’Boundless Heart Sea’ happens to have three Heavenly Gods of the ’Lower Pathway’. Once they belong to you, wouldn’t you naturally advance to the second-tier Heavenly God?"

Before escaping, the West God King was unaware of the Cataclysm Path of the newly ascended Heavenly Gods, and naturally, Yao Qin didn’t know either.

Hearing Qiu Tu’s words now, Yao Qin couldn’t help but freeze.

However, she quickly reacted.

She gave Qiu Tu a deep look and said, "Compared to devouring, subdued Heavenly Gods will fall in realm once they betray."

"I’m not familiar with those three Heavenly Gods; how can I trust they won’t betray?"

Qiu Tu nonchalantly said, "Why trust they won’t betray in the first place?"

"It’s just a cooperative relationship that needs mutual restraint. Aren’t other forces in the ’Heavenly God Battlefield’ like this?"

Yao Qin hesitated slightly.

But Qiu Tu continued, "Besides.... helping you advance to the second tier is just a stepping stone for you and them."

Saying this, Qiu Tu pointed at the ground beneath him and said, "What truly holds value... is the ’Boundless Heart Sea’."

Qiu Tu said, "Don’t forget. The ’Boundless Heart Sea’ has never been assimilated by the ’Heavenly God Battlefield’."

"This proves this world still holds the soil to birth Heavenly Gods."

Qiu Tu pointed at Yao Qin, "Since the Gods of the ’Boundless Heart Sea’ are willing to cooperate with you, they naturally wouldn’t mind if you chose certain beings from this world to cultivate."

"When the time comes, the direct descendants you cultivate become ’Heavenly Gods’; they certainly wouldn’t betray you, right?"

Seeing Yao Qin open her mouth, wanting to say something.

But Qiu Tu raised his hand to interrupt her, "Don’t think cultivating yourself is too slow."

"You took hundreds of years to devour 7 Heavenly Gods. Can it be slower than sticking with the Star Casting God King?"

Yao Qin: .....

Though this struck a chord, it was the truth. So Yao Qin immediately fell silent, her mind racing, considering the suggestions and conditions Qiu Tu presented.....

One must say, Qiu Tu indeed has a knack for finding the weak spots of a being and attacking them specifically.

So, after listening to Qiu Tu’s words, although feeling Qiu Tu was painting a vast picture for her, she was somewhat tempted.

Of course, she’s not someone who just listens to whatever Qiu Tu says.

So, after hesitating for a moment, she spoke, "What about the Star Casting God King?"

"Since he knows about this world, he won’t let it slide."

Qiu Tu pointed at the "repair array" that had stopped, then said, "If the world channel isn’t repaired, they can’t invade on a large scale."

"By then, the entire ’Boundless Heart Sea’ would be our backyard, our development base."

Yao Qin retorted, "But they can still descend."

Qiu Tu said with a smile, "If it’s just two or three God Kings, with you and the World’s Heavenly Gods, it’s enough to handle."

"They would only become our resources for advancement."

Yao Qin bit her lip, her gaze flickering. After a moment, she added, "But what if the Star Caster descends personally?"

Hearing Yao Qin’s words, Qiu Tu spread his hands and said, "Qin Qin, are you expecting me to think through all the plan details and let you execute them directly?"

"If you agree with this plan, you should use your brain a bit and exert some heart power."

"As for the possibility of the Star Casting God King descending... do you have a way to prevent it?"

Qiu Tu’s words carried a hint of suggestion, which immediately made Yao Qin pause.

She stood still, hesitating slightly, as if truly thinking of something.

Just like that, she quietly contemplated for a few minutes, then looked at Qiu Tu and said,

"But.... how do I make sure this isn’t just your delaying tactic? What if I follow your words and then realize I’ve been schemed against?"

Hearing Yao Qin’s words, Qiu Tu gave her a deep look, then said, "Qin Qin, you might be so busy that you’re confused."

"I’m not Qiu Tu, but your husband."

"As for whether you’ll be schemed against...."

Saying this, Qiu Tu paused, then continued, "Anyway, you’ve allowed plenty of time for repairing the ’world channel’."

"Why not take this time to investigate Qiu Tu’s reputation on land?"

"If I remember correctly, gathering intelligence on this world and Heavenly Gods is part of our mission."

After saying this, Qiu Tu added with a smile, "You’re not afraid to leave the ’world channel’, fearing I’ll destroy it, right?"

"Your courage and your chest are totally disproportionate."

Hearing Qiu Tu’s words, Yao Qin’s expression froze.

Though she knew Qiu Tu was using incitement, his words did somewhat move her.

So, after giving Qiu Tu a deep look, she nodded. ƒreewebɳovel.com

Having discussed the entire plan, Yao Qin left the ’world channel.’

After she left, Qiu Tu quietly sat in the repair array for several hours, confirming that Yao Qin should have indeed gone to the surface to inquire about him.

He activated the "Order Space" and shattered the "world channel", which had been mostly repaired.

Though he wasn’t just painting pictures for Yao Qin and indeed wanted to use her as a stepping stone to infiltrate the ’Heavenly God Battlefield’.

But! A wise man would not stand under a dangerous wall!

The "world channel" is too lethal for the currently fragile ’Boundless Heart Sea.’

So Qiu Tu wasn’t going to gamble on Yao Qin’s choice or her conscience.

All the plans he thought of in recent days actually had the ultimate aim of luring the tiger away from the mountain.

It’s also why he kept gritting his teeth and holding on.

——From a psychological perspective, the same ’scam’, when led by the victim themselves, greatly weakens their vigilance.

Because they’ll feel they initiated this topic and engaged in the project actively.

While the fraudster didn’t initiate or deliberately lure them, making it more believable.

In reality.... it’s just a different method of deception.

After all, high-end hunters often appear in the guise of prey.

And after so much pulling and today’s performance, Yao Qin finally fell for it....

Thinking this, Qiu Tu looked at the ruins and the destroyed "world channel" and repair array before him, finally breathing a complete sigh of relief. frёeωebɳovel.com

He didn’t choose to wait in place: if Yao Qin returned and found out she was fooled, who knows what she might do in anger.

So, he packed up and prepared to flee.

But then.

Suddenly, a figure shot over like an arrow let loose.

The seawater in front of this figure posed no barrier, and in moments, the figure reached the underwater ruins.

Qiu Tu was startled, thinking it was Yao Qin returning.

However, when the figure entered the "Guardian Realm Lamp" range, Qiu Tu froze.

"I’ve come."

Speaking was Zhao Ji, who should have had about 3-4 days left to ascend, stepping into the Guardian Realm Lamp range, sword in hand.

She looked at Qiu Tu, her frosty face showing a hint of concern.

"It’s been hard on you these past two days."
