Then let them show their loyalty!

Chapter 595: Promoted to Shelter No. ! (Thanks to the leader of "Neck")

So, after Princess Xi glanced at the Zhao family below, her turquoise eyes slowly withdrew.

Then she looked at Qiu Tu, pursed her lips, and asked tentatively,

"Chairman Qiu, how was your rest recently?"

Qiu Tu's main attention was still on the search of the Zhao family downstairs. So, when he heard Princess Xi's words, he did not retract his gaze, but just replied casually, "You had a good rest."

Princess Xi's deep and cold eyes stayed on Qiu Tu for a few seconds, and then she pretended to be indifferent and said, "Are you resting alone?"

Qiu Tu was so perceptive. When Princess Xi asked the first question, he didn't notice anything unusual. But when she asked the second question, he immediately felt something was wrong.

He thought about it and guessed some possibilities: Could it be that his plan worked?

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu did not alert the enemy, but continued to pretend to be very interested in the search of the Zhao family downstairs, and then pretended to reply casually, "No."

"Who still sleeps alone nowadays? Isn't the bed cold?"

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Princess Xi nodded slightly and agreed, "Indeed. With your current status and position, you are indeed not short of scarce resources such as beautiful women around you."

The more he listened, the more Qiu Tu felt that his guess was correct.

So, he shook his head and said deliberately, "Wrong."

"Wrong?" Princess Xi hesitated for a moment, then asked, "You mean you are also in need of beauties?"

Qiu Tu shook his head again, and then said, "No. What I mean is that beautiful women have never been a scarce resource."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Princess Xi's beautiful face was obviously stunned. A trace of doubt flashed in her blue eyes, a little puzzled: Qiu Tu's answer obviously went against her cognition.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu knew that he should take the initiative, so he withdrew his gaze from downstairs, looked at Princess Xi, and began to explain, "Do you feel that you can't understand?"

Princess Xi nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu smiled and explained, "Let's talk about the definition of beauty first."

"What is a beauty?"

"Is one out of a hundred considered a beauty? Is one out of ten thousand considered a beauty? If neither is considered a beauty, then one out of a hundred thousand is still a beauty, right?"

Seeing Princess Xi finally nod, Qiu Tu gave her a simple calculation, "Okay. Then let's use the rule that only one in a hundred thousand is considered a beauty. There are millions of people in a city, so one in a hundred thousand means there are dozens of beauties."

"There are 13 to 19 cities in one state, and 7 to 18 states in one shelter, so it can be said that there are nearly beauties in each shelter."

"This number is much greater than the number of catastrophists in an entire state. Can it be considered a scarce resource?"

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Princess Xi frowned slightly.

What Qiu Tu said did make sense. But she always felt something was wrong. So she thought about it and added, "Well, one out of a hundred thousand people is indeed a beauty, but there must be more beautiful people, right?"

At this point, she paused, "For example, Miss Lu Ling, who is well-known to everyone in Shelter 7. Beauties of her level should be very rare, right?"

Compared with the newly developed 8th Shelter, the economy and entertainment of the 7th Shelter are more developed. It also gave birth to singers and movie stars similar to those in the Republic of China period.

Miss Lu Ling is the most dazzling female star in Shelter 7. She is not only beautiful but also has excellent acting skills. She is a household name in Shelter 7 and has many fans.

But Qiu Tu shook his head slightly after hearing this, and then said, "Lu Ling is very beautiful. But what is scarce is not her, but money and resources."

"Even if an ordinary girl and a female star have the same face and the same figure, the latter will still be more beautiful."

"Because... a person wearing a silk dress is more beautiful than a person wearing a ragged cloth dress."

"Hair that costs a lot of money and takes a lot of time to take care of is smoother and more shiny than hair that costs nothing and takes no time to take care of."

"The light makeup done by professional makeup artists is more refined than the one done without any makeup or with low-quality makeup."

"As for the rest, let alone skin care, etiquette practice, and the temperament of having experienced big scenes, etc."

"Which of these is not made up of money and resources?"

After hearing Qiu Tu's words, Princess Xi stood there in a daze, not knowing how to refute for a moment.

At this moment, Qiu Tu's observation of Princess Xi's condition completely confirmed his guess.

He spread his hands and said deliberately, "So, there is no shortage of women around me, let alone beautiful women."

"Because as long as I understand how to cultivate beauties, I can have people go to various states and cities to search for the type of beauties I like, and then slowly cultivate them myself."

"I can choose any size you want."

"Moreover, I can arrange and designate any personality and occupation."

"Don't even mention one Lu Ling. Even if I want a pair of Lu Lings, or a row of Lu Lings waiting for me with their butts sticking up in bed, I can get it."

At this point, Qiu Tu paused and said sincerely, "You know, with my current power, these are all minor issues."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Princess Xi nodded slightly with a deep look in her eyes.

What Qiu Tu said was right. Qiu Tu is now openly one of the leaders of the 6th, 7th, and 8th three major shelters, and he has tremendous power.

Privately, he controls two shelters and four states. It can be said that he is one of the most powerful people in the human camp.

With such a status, let alone promoting a star, even if it is just a bitch, there will be people singing praises for her.

But for some reason, Princess Xi always felt a little strange: Did she and Qiu Tu go off topic? Didn't she want to find out about Qiu Tu's private life? Why was Qiu Tu bringing her to this topic?

Perhaps sensing Princess Xi's doubts, Qiu Tu's eyes were filled with smiles. He held back his smile, then changed the subject, finally revealing his true intentions and talking about the significance of bringing up this topic.

He pointed at Princess Xi and said, "So, Princess, you don't have to worry about me doing anything bad to you."

"I still say the same thing as before. I did behave rudely towards you in the past. But that was just a means to facilitate cooperation."

"Since you are my ally and partner now, I will no longer use those methods on you."

"Because you are my ally and my partner, and I respect you very much."

After saying that, Qiu Tu turned around casually and continued to look at the scene of the Zhao family's house being ransacked downstairs.

At this moment, Princess Xi, who had never expected that Qiu Tu had seen through her and pointed it out bluntly, was completely frozen in place.

Even with her shrewdness, she was a little embarrassed for a moment. After all, "offering oneself to the bed" was somewhat self-indulgent.

However, I think of what Qiu Tu said just now: beautiful women are not a scarce resource.
Once you understand the essence of beauty, you can bring out any kind of beauty.
You are a partner and an ally, not a plaything.
Inexplicably, Princess Xi felt as if there was a warm current in her heart.
She couldn't help but look up at Qiu Tu.

Qiu Tu was sitting outside the window of the teahouse, looking out. In the sunlight, he had a high nose bridge and deep eyes.

Because he is in a high position, his every word and action affects hundreds of millions of people. Even though he is not very old, he still has the aura of a superior.

Just sitting there, he exudes an aura as profound as an abyss or a prison, which no one dared to underestimate.

Princess Xi looked at Qiu Tu quietly for a few seconds, then she came back to her senses, slowly looked away, looked downstairs, and stopped talking about this topic.
But what she didn't know was that the moment she looked away, a prompt for the "Loyalty Game" popped up in front of Qiu Tu.

"Lin Xi's loyalty increased by 7, and now her loyalty is 41."

Looking at the loyalty change prompt in front of him, Qiu Tu's lips curled up slightly into an imperceptible smile.

It seems that his guess was correct and his strategy was indeed correct.

In fact, during this period of time, Qiu Tu had been deliberately keeping a distance from Princess Xi and never overstepping the line for a reason.

In addition to the fact that Princess Xi was poisonous, Qiu Tu also had a rough idea of ​​Princess Xi's character after having in-depth contact with her.

Princess Xi should be a typical "vulnerable guardian".

This is one of the 12 types of women in the "Emotional Handbook".

This type of woman often has two extreme external personalities. Either she is taciturn, like a ball of cotton, allowing others to rub her; or she is smart, capable, ruthless, and looks very difficult to mess with.

But no matter what their outward personality is, they are actually extremely fragile and introverted inside.

This type of women often have certain problems in their original families, which have distorted their values, world and values; or they may be naturally sensitive and have suffered severe psychological trauma from their previous one or two relationships.

Therefore, they are often more fragile and sensitive, and their desire for revenge and jealousy are stronger than those of women with other personalities.

And it is actually very simple to conquer such a woman.

It’s the same old saying: if she is young and inexperienced, then take her to see the world; if she is experienced, then take her to ride a carousel.

If you want to impress a woman's heart, the most important skill is to make yourself different from others.

So, since the "vulnerable guardian" has a bad family background and is surrounded by betrayal and exploitation.

Then give her enough love, care, respect and a sense of security.

When applied to Princess Xi, it means "treat her as a human being."

Although Princess Xi is a woman with a gloomy mind and vicious means, she does have a miserable life.

To put it bluntly, neither the Lin family nor Prince Kang treated her as a human being.

Either she was a disaster material, or she was a furnace. This is why she developed such an extreme personality.

Therefore, if you want to conquer her, you must give her enough respect and love, not take advantage of her, and not betray her.

It was a pity that Qiu Tu had not seen her hidden past before, so he took advantage of her and betrayed her.

This resulted in Qiu Tu being very passive: because in Princess Xi's mind, Qiu Tu's previous actions had most likely made him the third target of revenge.

After seeing the true nature of Princess Xi, Qiu Tu actually thought about whether he should kill Princess Xi directly to prevent future troubles.

Otherwise, it would be a bit scary to have a "goddess of vengeance" lurking in the shadows or chasing you every day.

But after thinking for a long time, Qiu Tu finally gave up the idea.

It’s not that he is sympathetic to women, but without Princess Xi, he can’t intervene in the 7th Shelter.

After all, only Princess Xi's identity as a Lin family member can reasonably and legally intervene in the affairs of the 7th Shelter.

And after taking over the 7th Shelter, Qiu Tu couldn't just let it go.

After all, he, who has now forcibly interfered in the affairs of the two states, has already become an outlier in the human camp and is being watched by all major shelters.

He must bide his time and digest this huge gain.

Therefore, he had no choice but to keep Princess Xi for the time being.

Therefore, Qiu Tu can only use the "Emotional Handbook" to see if he can delay the revenge rhythm of this woman, or conquer this woman and make reasonable use of her.

During this period, Qiu Tu maintained respect for Princess Xi and did not overstep the line, including today's "Beauty Hates". In fact, Qiu Tu used the methods in the "Emotional Handbook" to deliberately give Princess Xi a "sense of security":
Tell her that in your heart, she is a person, an ally and a partner, not a plaything or an object.

As for the previous abruptness, taking advantage, various calculations, and betrayals, they were all misunderstandings. Don't take it to heart. Looking back now, it does have a certain effect.
Thinking of this, Qiu Tu watched the house-raiding team close the Zhao family's door and seal it, and he secretly reminded himself in his heart,
'Don't rush it. Take it slow.'

"Anyway, I don't lack women around me. Well, at least not in the past two months."

"Conquer her first, and then eat her. Otherwise, this poisonous woman is too dangerous."

As for the "beauty discussion" just now, it was actually just something Qiu Tu said casually.

Real top beauties are, of course, a scarce resource.

Because the "identity" of top beauties is a part of them and their added value.

They have the same appearance and figure, one is a female CEO and the other is a factory girl. Can they be the same when it comes to men's desire to conquer them?

You can cultivate one yourself, but it is so troublesome to cultivate a top beauty. It is better to eat the ready-made ones.

So, Princess Xi, Qiu Tu is doomed. Even if King Kang is resurrected, it won't work!

As for now, of course, it is just the preparation before "eating the main meal".
Thinking of this, Qiu Tu came back to his senses, and then invited Princess Xi, "Xixi, the Zhao family has been sealed off, let's go down too."

Maybe because she had been Qiu Tu's prisoner for a period of time, Princess Xi had already lost her momentum in front of Qiu Tu.

Hearing Qiu Tu's invitation, Princess Xi nodded silently, and then responded, "Okay."

Walking down the teahouse, the area around the Zhao residence had already been cleared, with only soldiers standing upright on both sides of the road holding guns.

Each of them was one meter apart, extending all the way from Zhao's house to the distance.

The Zhao residence, which was once prosperous and bustling with people coming and going, was now empty. Only hundreds of Zhao family members were left, with their hands tied behind their backs, kneeling there crying.

Seeing this scene, Princess Xi had no expression on her face. She stood there, her cold and hateful eyes swept over those people, and ordered in a cold voice, "Kill!"

Upon hearing Princess Xi's order, the direct descendants of the Zhao family cried even louder. Some begged for mercy, some cursed, and some laughed out loud. It was just like all living things.

However, no matter what they did, they could not save their lives, so hundreds of soldiers carrying out the execution stepped forward and pointed their guns at them.

“Bang!” “Bang-bang!” “Bang-bang-bang!”

Accompanied by the sound of gunfire, bodies fell to the ground one after another.

The soldiers at the scene were all Princess Xi's confidants, but even so, some of them still showed a trace of reluctance on their faces.

But only Princess Xi had no expression on her face, as if she had killed chickens, ducks, geese, dogs and cats instead of humans.
As the Zhao family was destroyed, the power of catastrophe around her suddenly began to gather, her realm was rapidly improving, and her aura became stronger and stronger.
At the same time, the Zhao family was being raided and purged.

On the other side of the core of Shelter No. 7, all direct descendants of the Han family were driven to the execution ground.

It was just because they had no personal grudge against Princess Xi, so the one who carried out the execution was not Princess Xi, but the elders of the 7th Shelter and the family heads who surrendered at the sight of the enemy.

Among them of course was Wei Zhengze, the first patriarch of the Wei family who called for refuge and one of the three giants of the 7th Shelter.

Seeing this cruel scene and hearing the suppressed cries of the Han family members, Wei Zhengze looked at Tang Feifei, who was in the lead, and Yudie and Guan Xiao, who were standing on both sides of her, with some reluctance, and then said, "My three lords, do you really want to execute them all?"

"Many of them were unaware that Han Xiangdong and Zhao Pan had defected to the evil god. They are all innocent."

Hearing his words, Tang Feifei, who was in the lead, slowly closed her eyes, obviously not wanting to answer this question.

Seeing this, Guan Xiao, who was accustomed to doing the dirty work and had the lowest status among the three, took the initiative to take on the job of explaining.

She looked at Wei Zhengze and said with a sweet smile, "Elder Wei, you are confused again."

"There is solid evidence that the Zhao and Han families have colluded with the evil god and joined the evil god organization, the Wuyin Society."

"Among them, Zhao Pan, the head of the Zhao family, colluded with the evil god, secretly conducted anti-human experiments and provided the evil god with experimental data. After the matter was exposed, he intended to escape."

"And Han Xiangdong, the head of the Han family, betrayed a number of key intelligence of the human camp. After the incident, he resisted stubbornly and refused to change his ways."

"According to Elder Lin's opinion, they and their entire families will be executed. This decision was passed by the Senate by a show of hands and notified to all major shelters, and it has legal effect."

"Are you backing down now? Are you trying to go against the law and the entire human camp?"

Hearing such a big hat being put on his head, Wei Zhengze was so scared that he waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no."

“I just feel like a lot of these people are innocent,” he explained.

Hearing his words, Guan Xiao smiled and said, "But when they were enjoying the glory and wealth of the Zhao and Han families, they were not innocent."

"So when we are in good times, we are one family, but when we are in trouble, we are two families?"

Guan Xiao’s words made Wei Zhengze blush for a moment.

He knew that no matter what he said now, it would be better to just do it.

Those who can become the Big Three must be quite capable. So he took a deep breath and ordered everyone, "Kill!"

Following his order, the scene fell into complete silence.

The elders of the shelter and the heads of the surrendered families looked at each other and exchanged glances, waiting for someone to fire the first shot and then everyone would follow suit.

After a moment, accompanied by the first gunshot, gunshots began to sound in chaos.

The blood on the ground gradually gathered into a small river, and then slowly flowed outwards.
All the forces that were paying attention to the situation in the 7th Sanctuary actually believed that even if Qiu Tu took down the 7th Sanctuary, there was a high probability that he would make a decent transition and ensure a smooth handover of power.

But no one expected this.

After Qiu Tu arrived at the 7th Sanctuary, he began to hunt down the direct descendants of the Zhao and Han families.

Just when everyone thought Qiu Tu was crazy and disregarding a smooth handover and the eradication of the old forces, Qiu Tu directly threw out a 38-page list of charges against the Han and Zhao families for betraying humanity, defecting to the evil god, and joining the evil god's organization.

Even though they guessed that Qiu Tu must have a trump card in his hand, when they saw this trump card, the top leaders of various human shelters were still furious.

Surrendering to the evil god, joining the evil god's organization, secretly conducting human experiments, selling out human intelligence, and dragging other forces into the water are all serious crimes.

Taken together, it is an unforgivable sin.

Therefore, Qiu Tu and Princess Xi searched the Zhao family and executed all the Zhao family members; Tang Feifei, Yu Die, Guan Xiao supervised the 7th Shelter and other elders and family heads to execute the Han family members.

As for why it was Princess Xi who executed the Zhao family's members, while other elders and family heads executed the Han family's members, there was a reason for that.

The Zhao family inherited the Lin family's "Butterfly Transformation Gu" and continued to study it in depth. To some extent, they have a grudge against Princess Xi.

Therefore, Princess Xi's execution of them is equivalent to practicing her "revenge" path, which can further enhance her strength.

As for other elders and family heads executing Han family members, it was the simplest way of "dragging others into the water".

If only Qiu Tu's side forcibly purged the Han and Zhao families, it would not only appear arrogant and domineering, but would also likely be subject to a lot of criticism afterwards.

If there are any remnants of the Han and Zhao families, they may retaliate against Qiu Tu's side.

But now, with a legitimate reason, all the top leaders of Shelter 7 were dragged into this. That was a plan that was collectively decided and implemented by the entire Shelter 7.

By then, everyone will be of one mind, and there will be no undercurrents.

As for the major families in the 7th Shelter of the remnants, they might be more enthusiastic in searching for them than Qiu Tu.

After all, they have a big family, a lot of money, and a lot of family members, so they are much easier to deal with than Qiu Tu.
Just like that, after forcibly purging the Han and Zhao families and tying up all the top executives of the 7th Shelter in their cars, Qiu Tu and Princess Xi finally began to seek the throne of the 7th Shelter.

Taking advantage of the fact that the two of them now have the greatest reputation and influence, Princess Xi and Qiu Tu jointly convened the Elders Council of the 7th Shelter.

At this meeting of elders, Princess Xi also formally proposed to "restore the chief elder (head of state)."

The 7th Shelter was formed by the four families of Lin, Han, Zhao, and Wei. The four families were equal in status and there was both competition and cooperation between them.

In order to better lead the 7th Shelter, they agreed to take turns to serve as the "head" every four years, and each family can serve as Shelter No. for four years.

The rotation was normal at the beginning, but in the two years before the "Partridge Terrace Incident", everything was different.

The Lin family has accumulated strength over time, and relying on the power of the "Butterfly-Transforming Gu", its strength gradually surpasses that of the other three families.

Afterwards, the Lin family became the head of state. With the combined power and strength, it instantly became a giant that the other three families were unable to restrict at all.

So after the "Queqiaotai Incident", in order to avoid repeating the same mistakes, the three families left the position of "head of state" vacant.

Now that Princess Xi has mentioned the term "head of state" again, it is clear that she is preparing to centralize power again.

However, all the senior officials of Shelter 7 are now the defeated parties and have no right to object or negotiate conditions, so they can only agree to this proposal.

In addition to re-proposing the position of head of state, Princess Xi also followed the plan and took advantage of this power grab to nominate Qiu Tu, who had just joined the Elders Council, as the second elder.

This clearly defines the location of Shelter No. 2.

The top leaders of Shelter 7, including the leader, agreed, so No. certainly didn't care, so he passed it again.

After all, they all knew that Qiu Tu and Princess Xi were in the same boat.

Whether or not you agree with the Second Elder will not affect the 7th Shelter's surname Qiu.

So, it is better to agree and leave a good impression on Qiu Tu.
And at the same time.

Just when the change of dynasty was in full swing in Shelter 7.

The Kou family also held a formal cabinet meeting at Shelter 6.

At the meeting, several cabinet ministers also agreed to Kou Xuan's suggestion two days ago that Qiu Tu be appointed as deputy prime minister.

At this point, Qiu Tu officially became the number two person in both the 6th and 7th shelters.

After just a period of time, the Kou family or Princess Xi can abdicate and truly ascend to the top of the shelter.

According to convention, personnel changes of this level must be notified to all major shelters.

Therefore, the 6th and 7th shelters all prepared relevant notices and then conveyed them to all the other shelters.

As Qiu Tu’s mother’s home, Shelter No. 8 of course sent congratulations as soon as possible.

But except for the 8th Shelter, the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Shelters in the "Southwest Region" and the 2nd Shelter in the "Boundless Heart Sea - Core Area" were all strangely silent.
As if they had made an appointment, there was no response from the four shelters.

Obviously, although Qiu Tu has tried his best to make his annexation of the 6th and 7th shelters reasonable and legal, his rule-breaking gameplay is still somewhat unacceptable to the human camp.
And that’s not all
Just when Qiu Tu was in a stalemate with the human camp, another piece of bad news came.
「Boundless Heart Sea-East City Area」

Qiu Tu, who rushed over from Shelter No. 7, looked at Zhao Ji who was sitting cross-legged in meditation, then frowned and asked, "Are you really going to leave? Is it okay not to leave?"

After hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhao Ji closed her eyes and said coldly, "No."

“That opportunity is very important to me.”
