Chapter 1824: Chapter 736: You Should Hold On to Zhao Ji (Monthly Ticket Requested)
Boundless Heart Sea - Edge Region - Xinjie City.
Qiu Tu and Goddess Queen Wang Yaoqin stood on a small hill, gazing into the distant view while chatting.
Looking at the distant scenery, Qiu Tu, hands clasped behind his back, calmly asked, "Little Yuan Yao’s body parts can not only detach, but also directly become a new body?"
Although Qiu Tu’s height was considered tall among humans, Wang Yaoqin’s presence beside him made him seem like a child.
Wang Yaoqin glanced down at Qiu Tu, then finally spoke, "Yes."
"Moreover... if I’m not mistaken, the new body formed from her body parts should be indistinguishable from the main body."
"So, once faced with danger, her consciousness and soul can directly transfer to the new body, abandoning the old one."
Hearing this, Qiu Tu couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration, "Truly a miraculous ability."
"It’s given me some bold ideas."
Wang Yaoqin glanced down at Qiu Tu, a question mark appearing above her horn-crowned head: ?
As if something occurred to her, she suddenly said, "Actually... I don’t quite understand you."
Qiu Tu responded with a simple "Oh?" as he fished around in his pocket, pulling out a pack of cigarettes, took one, held it in his mouth, and then looked up to ask, "What don’t you understand about me?"
The Lake Sheep Clan had somewhat exotic features, and Wang Yaoqin was no exception. Her nose was high and straight, her lips full and round, alluringly moist. As she spoke, her lips moved, reminding Qiu Tu of the warmth of that moment.
With a serious expression, Wang Yaoqin said, "Although you just had those three Heavenly Gods pledge loyalty to me, helping me meet the qualifications for promotion to a second-level Divine King."
"Once I successfully ascend, I can indeed protect this world for a while."
"But...."
She paused, then continued, "My talent is only average among Divine Kings."
"Second, third-level Divine King is already my limit."
"What you should really be focusing on is... Zhao Ji."
Perhaps because Qiu Tu acted so decisively: after sending off little Yuan Yao, he immediately had Qing Lan, Shao Hua, and Doris pledge loyalty to Wang Yaoqin and helped elevate her realm.
This not only put Wang Yaoqin’s heart at ease but also made her trust Qiu Tu even more, gradually considering him one of her own.
Thus, her words were candid.
She glanced down at Qiu Tu again and continued, "That’s why I’ve never quite understood. You clearly feel Zhao Ji’s special treatment toward you. You know that if you wholeheartedly devote yourself to Zhao Ji, you are sure to win her heart."
"Yet, you’ve always had a constant stream of admirers around you, making her hesitate."
She raised her head, looking into the distance, and said, "Don’t you think that all your hard work, all your struggles, might actually... be less effective than seizing her heart?"
"Once she becomes the Supreme God King, standing at the peak of this world, all your dreams can come true."
"Zhao Ji might be your greatest opportunity to change your destiny."
Obviously, Qiu Tu’s companions, as long as they weren’t blind, had noticed Zhao Ji’s unusual attitude toward Qiu Tu during this period.
But hearing this, Qiu Tu merely smiled.
He took a drag from his cigarette, flicked the ash, and instead of answering the question directly, he responded with another question,
"Then you tell me... Since I’ve already provoked the Evil Gods of the ’Chaos Path,’ able to resolve this crisis, why would I still help you and myself to enhance our realm and strength?"
Qiu Tu’s words left Wang Yaoqin momentarily stunned.
Without waiting for her answer, Qiu Tu continued, "Because a person’s greatest opportunity is never about whom they meet. It’s about working to invest in themselves and change themselves through meeting that person...."
"What is fate? It’s the accumulated result of all the continuous choices you make in your life."
"These consecutive choices form your true life."
"Choosing to rely on Zhao Ji and reach the peak is equivalent to handing over the real choice to her."
"Who knows if she will truly reach the peak? Who knows if she will remain consistent after reaching the peak? Who knows if she will still choose me after reaching the peak?"
Holding his cigarette, Qiu Tu nodded to the air and said, "In my hometown, there’s a saying, ’Lean on the mountain, the mountain will collapse; rely on people, and people will run away.’"
"So, relying on anyone else is not as good as relying on yourself."
"Both Zhao Ji and I are free, we support each other and fulfill each other."
"In the future, we may continue down the same path or possibly part ways."
"In the future, she may become the Supreme God King, but who can be sure that I won’t become the Supreme God King as well?"
At this, Qiu Tu smiled as he looked up at Wang Yaoqin, adding, "Furthermore... Men, aren’t they fond of wealth, power, and romance?"
"You are fair and plump, she is delicate and soft, each has their own beauty. I’m just a bit greedy, wanting to have it all."
Wang Yaoqin was stunned for a good two or three seconds by Qiu Tu’s words.
Since the destruction of the "Mountain World" ruled by the Lake Sheep Clan, she had been all alone.
Creatures, especially the Lake Sheep Clan, were habitually social and relied on the strong. So, the path she had followed all these years was always the same.
This is also why, despite the Star Casting God King’s long term harsh treatment, she accepted hundreds of years of exploitation....
But now, Qiu Tu had presented her with another perspective: one should not rely on others but should forge their own path.
This left her feeling momentarily lost.
