Chapter 1841: Chapter 741: Qiu Tu: Sister Zhaoji Is Number One in the World (Monthly Ticket Request)
At this moment, as Qiu Tu was thinking about this.
Suddenly, the phone in his office began to ring "ring ring ring."
Qiu Tu admired the two beams of light shooting up into the sky for another two seconds, then stepped back to his desk.
He picked up the phone, and on the other end came Qing Lan’s somewhat excited voice, "Boss, the promotion was successful!"
Hearing this, Qiu Tu smiled and said, "I know. I just saw it."
Upon hearing Qiu Tu’s words, Qing Lan on the other end was obviously stunned. Her exquisite little face was full of surprise, "Boss, you already knew about Candle Dance’s successful advancement?"
It was Qiu Tu’s turn to be stunned this time.
Candle Dance was also successfully promoted?
He blinked, and then quickly caught on: Is this... three good things at once?
However... wasn’t Candle Dance’s promotion too fast?
It’s no wonder Qiu Tu thought this way.
After all, both Yao Qin and Zhao Ji had accumulated years of resources before their breakthroughs.
Moreover, both had only advanced one rank.
Yao Qin advanced from First-Order Divine King to Second-Order Divine King, while Zhao Ji advanced from Intermediate Heavenly God to Advanced Heavenly God. They only spent the time needed for advancement.
But Candle Dance was different. In just over half a month, she had advanced from mid-Seventh Rank to Eighth Rank.
Moreover, what does "successful promotion" mean?
If it was just advancing from early Eighth Rank to mid Eighth Rank, Qiu Tu felt it would be an ordinary promotion, and Qing Lan wouldn’t be so excited to call him.
So, a conjecture was born in Qiu Tu’s mind: could it be..... she reached the peak? The pinnacle of Eighth Rank?
This speed was no longer just riding a rocket; it was boarding a nuclear bomb.
’These Heavenly God Reincarnations, how is each one more terrifying than the last? And why does each one seem to have cheats?’
’This woman Candle Dance, what exactly was her identity in her past life?’
While marveling inwardly, Qiu Tu also calmly said, "Of course I know Candle Dance succeeded in leveling up."
"I’ve always been keeping an eye on all of you."
After he finished speaking, he added, "Alright. Since the promotion was successful, come back earlier. Tonight we’ll discuss and proceed with the next step of the plan."
Hanging up the phone, Qiu Tu quietly pondered for two seconds before grinning brightly.
No matter what Candle Dance’s past life identity was, or how high her talent was.
Her Loyalty score of 63 points demonstrates she stands on Qiu Tu’s side now.
In this world full of Chaos, this is already enough.
With that in mind, Qiu Tu stopped overthinking and got up to go meet Zhao Ji and Yao Qin....
.....
In the East City Area, Zhao Ji’s underground palace.
The copper candlestick flickered among the crevices in the stone, the bright yellow flames licking the rune-covered walls, casting shadows like clawed monsters.
Qiu Tu walked through the narrow corridor, arriving in front of the secret chamber where Zhao Ji was in seclusion.
Before he could speak, Zhao Ji’s cold voice came from inside, "You’ve arrived?"
The voice was very bland, without any inflection, as if it was void of warmth, sounding just like a big piece of ice.
However, unfortunately, this big block of ice appeared to have already melted quite a bit under Qiu Tu’s influence.
Thus, Qiu Tu paid no attention to Zhao Ji’s icy tone and instead responded calmly while stepping inside.
The stone door of the chamber opened on its own, and soon, Qiu Tu entered the chamber.
As soon as he entered, the first sight that greeted him was Zhao Ji sitting cross-legged on the bed with eyes closed.
Though she was just sitting, her posture was still upright and proud, like a lone, majestic ice mountain, each line revealing unparalleled beauty and coldness.
Upon hearing Qiu Tu enter, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her cold and profound eyes.
Her face, gently covered like freshly fallen snow, combined with her noble and icy aura, made Zhao Ji the most beautiful woman Qiu Tu had ever seen.
Qiu Tu was momentarily dazed, and then... deliberately delayed another two seconds, as if he was stunned by Zhao Ji’s beauty.
Seeing this, Zhao Ji’s lips subtly curled up for a moment, like a game of hide-and-seek, before immediately hiding the smile.
This woman possibly has a slightly haughty nature, so although she was inwardly pleased, she still coolly said, "It’s rude of you to act like this."
Hearing Zhao Ji’s words, Qiu Tu pretended to snap back to reality and then looked at Zhao Ji admiringly, offering a flattering compliment,
"Sister Zhaoji, if strength and beauty are linked, you must be number one in the world."
Qiu Tu praised her cleverly, even leaving Zhao Ji a perfect opportunity to respond.
Sure enough, Zhao Ji heard this, glanced at him coldly, then said indifferently, "Even without being linked to beauty, I would still be number one in the world."
Hearing Zhao Ji’s words, Qiu Tu smiled even more happily. He said, "Of course."
"In that case, Sister Zhaoji, you have two number ones in the world."
Qiu Tu’s praise clearly pleased Zhao Ji, as she contently nodded slightly.
Having been a god in two lives, because of her background and personality, she had long been used to fighting alone, being at odds with the world. Apart from briefly interacting with the "Chaos Witch," she had almost no companions.
This led her to crave recognition and praise.
Furthermore, during the few months she spent with her master, who had always been tender and gave her exaggerated praise,
This made her have little resistance to praise, as long as she heard it, she would feel happy.
