Chapter 610 I am Shelter No. 1! (Monthly Ticket Request!)
After hearing the secretary's words, Elder Miao and Elder Xu couldn't help but look at each other.

To be honest, although the two guessed that Qiu Tu might convene a meeting of elders in the near future, they really didn't expect it to happen so soon.

"Qiu Tu is too anxious."

Their keen political sense made them smell something different.

So, Elder Miao coughed, and then asked in a deep voice, "When will the meeting be held? Who notified you?"

Hearing what Master Miao said, the secretary quickly bowed and responded, "Master Miao, it was notified by the Privy Council that the meeting will be held at 1pm."

Miao Lao nodded thoughtfully, then said, "I understand. Let's go down."

The secretary bowed again and then walked quickly out of the yard.

As they watched the secretary's figure gradually disappear at the gate of the courtyard, the two elders looked at each other.

Elder Miao asked tentatively, "Does Qiu Tu want to start today?"

Hearing this, Mr. Xu's cloudy eyes revealed a bit of deep thought, "It's very likely."

Miao Lao asked, "Then what should we do?"

Mr. Xu picked up the teacup on the table, lowered his brows and drank a sip of tea, then said slowly, "What can we do?"

"Do you think we have a choice?"

Mr. Xu said with some emotion, "Don't think of us as the former shelter executives."

"Put yourself in the right place."

"We are actually not much different from the common people and the ants on the ground."

"If we had surrendered voluntarily, we would still have a place in the new system."

"But we were beaten up and had no choice but to admit defeat."

"Now, it's good enough that Qiu Tu is still willing to keep our position."

"Besides, who is Qiu Tu?"

“But he is a super-level catastrophist who killed the seventh-level evil god and enslaved the sixth-level evil god.”

"Plus, his high-ranking status directly put him in a golden body, and even nuclear weapons could not be used."

"So, facing him, we are like fish on a chopping block. There is nothing we can do."

At this point, Mr. Xu paused and concluded, "If you ask me, no matter what happens this afternoon, we should not express any opinions."

"This time, we will only bring ears, not mouths."

Hearing Elder Xu's sincere advice, Elder Miao showed a trace of deep thought on his face, and then nodded thoughtfully.

And at the same time.

Shelter No. 7. Wei's family.

As one of the original three giants of Sanctuary 7.

The Wei family has experienced three major events: the founding of the 7th Sanctuary, the Partridge Terrace Incident, and the Qiu Lin Coup, but still stands at the top of the power of the 7th Sanctuary.

Of the original four founders of the 7th Shelter, only Wei Zhengze, the head of the Wei family, is left. Although the four major families have experienced many changes over the past few decades, only the Wei family has remained consistent.

This also shows the Wei family's ability to judge the situation and their strength.

At this time, in the main house of Wei's house.

Wei Zhengze, the helmsman of the Wei family, listened to the report from the head of the Wei family's intelligence system with a serious face. He then tapped the table lightly with his fingers and thought quietly.

After a moment, he came back to his senses, then looked at the person in charge of the emotional system and confirmed, "So, you mean Qiu Tu has reached an agreement with the 3rd Shelter."

"Shelter 3 helped him deal with other shelters, and then took the initiative to build momentum for him, making him the number one shelter in our shelter?"

"And once Qiu Tu seizes power, will he agree to a series of unequal treaties?"

"This even includes the possibility that the 3rd Sanctuary can set up offices and station troops in the states of the 7th Sanctuary?"

Hearing Wei Zhengze's words, the intelligence chief nodded slightly, and then affirmed, "Yes."

Wei Zhengze's face was slightly angry. "What is Qiu Tu doing? Isn't this making Shelter 7 a semi-colony?!"

Hearing Wei Zhengze's words, the intelligence chief coughed quickly, and then reminded softly, "Master, be careful with your words."

After hearing the reminder from the intelligence chief, Wei Zhengze realized that he had spoken out of turn.

So he quickly concealed himself, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

It took him three or four seconds to drink this sip of tea.

After three or four seconds, he adjusted his mood, put down his tea, and said with a look of neither joy nor sadness, "Did Lin Xi know the news?"

Lin Xi is Princess Xi.

The intelligence chief lowered his head and whispered, "I'm sure they knew it a long time ago."

Wei Zhengze tapped his fingers on the table, thinking quietly.

After a moment, he spoke, "Although it is not clear what agreement Qiu Tu and Lin Xi reached."

"But if I'm not mistaken, there must be conditions regarding how the benefits of Shelter 7 are distributed."

"Now, Qiu Tu not only sold the 7th Shelter, making it a semi-colony of the 7rd Shelter. Moreover, in less than a month, he is preparing to drive her out of office."

"If I were her, I would definitely not hand over power so easily."

After hearing the policy analysis, the head of the intelligence agency nodded slightly and hesitated, "I guess so."

"During this period of time, we have been in contact with Lin Xi and have done a rough character mapping of her."

"This woman is extremely vengeful. She is also very deep-minded and has a lot of brains."

"If Qiu Tu dares to plot against her like this, she will definitely not let Qiu Tu go."

"So, my suggestion is that we wait and see what happens, and do nothing to help either side. Then we sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight."

"After all, if they fight, we will be the ones who benefit."

After hearing what the intelligence chief said, Wei Zhengze showed a hint of understanding on his face.

He analyzed, "We are the largest surrender faction in the 7th Shelter, and we surrendered directly to Qiu Tu. We can almost be said to be Qiu Tu's direct lineage in the 7th Shelter."

"Although Princess Xi is a partner of Qiu Tu, their interests are now in conflict. Qiu Tu will have to support another force to check and balance Princess Xi."

“That’s us!”

After hearing Wei Zhengze's analysis, the intelligence chief looked at Wei Zhengze with a smile in his eyes, then nodded and said, "Yes."

"In fact, this trend has already emerged during this period."

"After Qiu Tu took over the shelter, he purged the Senate, but the ones he purged were all families close to the Zhao and Han families."

"Qiu Tu barely made any moves towards the faction close to our Wei family."

“This has greatly preserved our strength.”

"Even if Princess Xi takes the throne and holds the righteous position, she can only compromise with us."

This intelligence chief is obviously the Wei family's think tank.

Many of the Wei family’s previous decisions may have been proposed or modified by him.

So, after listening to the intelligence chief's words, Wei Zhengze nodded with satisfaction and agreed, "Right. That's it."

He directly determined the approach for the next elders' meeting, "If that's the case, then I will not say anything during the afternoon meeting no matter what happens."

The intelligence chief nodded slightly, as if he had agreed.
Meanwhile, Shelter 6. Central.

With a "bang", the door of the study was pushed open from the outside and kissed the wall firmly.

As the door opened, Kou Yu strode in angrily.

Kou Xuan, who was sitting behind the desk signing his name, looked up at his brother, then gestured to the sofa next to him, "Sit down."

After saying that, Kou Xuan continued to write documents with his head down.

Hearing what Kou Xuan said, Kou Yu angrily came to the sofa and sat down on it.

"Brother, aren't you anxious at all?"

"I know everything. Qiu Tu sold us out!"

After hearing what Kou Yu said, Kou Xuan continued to review a document with a faint smile on his face.

Just like that, after finishing reviewing the documents at hand, Kou Xuan slowly put down the pen in his hand.

Then he did not directly answer his brother's question, but suddenly talked about something completely unrelated.

"Commander Li Feng of Shelter 4 contacted me on behalf of Shelter 2."

Kou Yu was stunned for a moment, then looked at Kou Xuan with surprise.

Kou Xuan leaned back in his chair and said slowly, "She said that after these years of investigation, she felt that after Qiu Tu left, the Kou family was actually the most suitable force to become the king of the "Northwest Region."

"If we are willing to cooperate with her, then Shelter 2 will support our shelter just like they supported Shelter 3."

"This will not only help us get rid of the possibility of being a semi-colony, but also enable us to achieve great development."

Kou Yu was shocked when he heard his brother's words. He asked, "Commander Li Feng actually has such an identity?"

Kou Xuan pointed to his eyes and said, "To some extent, the masters of Shelter 2 cannot come to the "edge area", so they need an agent to observe and measure the changes in the situation in the "edge area."

"And Commander Li Feng is obviously the agent."

Kou Xuan paused, "According to Commander Li Feng's observations and conclusions, the various operations of the Third Shelter are really too crazy." "So, having a Third Shelter is enough. She doesn't want the entire human camp to be led astray."

"That's why she chose our Kou family."

At this time, Kou Yu actually didn't care who the agent was. He was more concerned about whether Kou Xuan agreed.

So, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother, do you agree?"

Kou Xuan really brought the topic back after hearing this. He shook his head slightly and said, "No. I haven't given her an accurate answer yet."

"Said to wait two days and then tell her the result."

At this point, Kou Xuan paused, then said, "I still want to see the dust settle on Shelter 7 first."

"See how Lin Xi chooses"

Soon, in the blink of an eye, the morning passed quietly.

1 p.m. Sanctuary 7, Senate Chamber.

At this time, both sides of the long table in the meeting hall were already filled with elders, with not a single chair left vacant.

Read more latest popular novels at 6.9*shuba!

The 7th Shelter had a total of 32-37 elders over the years. However, with the liquidation of the Han and Zhao families, although their direct descendants were not arrested or killed, most of them were demoted and removed from the position of elders.

This means that there are only 7 elders in the 23th Shelter.

Perhaps because this was the first time that Qiu Tu, the uncrowned king of the "Northwest Region", convened a meeting of elders, the elders were particularly present, with all 23 elders present.

And they were all waiting in the conference hall early.

Several elders who were far away were sweating even when they sat down, and their clothes were soaked with sweat. It was obvious that they were in a hurry and under too much pressure.
From this, we can also see Qiu Tu's current prestige in the entire "Northwest Region" and the 7th Shelter.
Soon, as the clock hand pointed to "1", Qiu Tu and Princess Xi came in from outside one after another.

As soon as the two appeared, the entire conference hall suddenly became quiet, and all the elders stood up in unison to greet them.

However, precisely because of this high-level welcome, the elders present keenly sensed that something was amiss.

Because when he walked in from outside, Qiu Tu had a faint smile on his face. In contrast, Princess Xi had no expression on her face, as if someone owed her millions.

This made the elders present feel a little nervous, and they felt that today's meeting might not be that simple.
They walked to the main seat, the vice seat, Qiu Tu and Princess Xi sat down, and the elders followed suit a little nervously.

Accompanied by a noisy sound of chairs being dragged, the entire conference hall soon became quiet.

Seeing that the entire conference hall had returned to order, Princess Xi, who was still Shelter No. 1, looked around coldly at everyone present, and then said majestically, "This time, the Elders' Meeting is mainly to discuss an important matter."

After hearing Princess Xi's words, the elders present looked at each other, then quickly adjusted their sitting positions, looked at Princess Xi, and said in their hearts, "Here it comes."

When Princess Xi saw that all eyes were focused on her, the expression on her face relaxed slightly.

But when she thought about what she was going to say next, her expression became more serious.

She was silent for two seconds, then she spoke slowly, "I have seen the criticisms of me from other shelters over the past two days."

"To be honest, I'm disappointed."

"I didn't expect that I would be misunderstood like this."

"The reason why I led the troops back to the 7th Shelter is because I discovered that the Han and Zhao families had betrayed humanity. If we continue to allow them to continue to control our shelter, then what awaits us will only be an abyss."

"So, I returned to Shelter 7 entirely to make Shelter 7 a better place, not for revenge!"

"Besides, they also said that there was no way I could build Shelter 7!"

After hearing Princess Xi's words, all the elders in the conference hall looked at each other and exchanged glances.

Obviously, Princess Xi's emotional criticism made many elders think that Princess Xi wanted to break up with Qiu Tu.
For a moment, many elders began to think about how they should choose to gain better benefits once No. 1 and No. 2 of the shelter are in conflict.

Should I support Qiu Tu? Or betray Princess Xi? This is indeed a question.
As a result, as the dark waves surged, Princess Xi changed the subject and said, "But, after talking with Elder Qiu, I suddenly figured it out."

At this point, Princess Xi glanced at Qiu Tu and said, "Elder Qiu told me. As the highest leader of the shelter, you should listen to both sides and then you will be wise."

"Since, so many shelters say I did something wrong."

"Why don't I take a break for a few days?"

"Take advantage of this time to observe the operation of each department of the shelter, learn from the advanced experience of other shelters, and then formulate a new plan to enable our shelter to develop."

Princess Xi had a serious expression and a firm gaze, "I think Elder Qiu is right."

"So, I have decided to resign from my position as the head of the shelter. Elder Qiu will temporarily serve as the head of the 7th shelter."

After hearing Princess Xi's words, the entire conference hall fell silent.

None of the elders expected that Princess Xi would change the subject and actually resign on her own initiative?
So what was the point of what she said before?
Thinking of this, all the elders began to think quickly, analyzing the purpose of Princess Xi's conversation.
At first, they were a little confused about Princess Xi's approach. However, the more they analyzed it, the more they felt that Princess Xi's move was brilliant!
It is not an easy matter for Princess Xi to step down as head of state.

Because it is easy to step down as head of state, but it is difficult to take office again.

If she were to resign by "self-defilement", it would be difficult for her to become the head of state again in her lifetime because of her political stain.

If she didn't find a reason to defame herself, she could just find a random reason to resign.

She is still a "general" who "deserted from the battlefield". She will lose the support of the people in the 7th Sanctuary and it will be difficult for her to regain the throne again.

As a result, she first cited criticism from other shelters, and then, with the advice of Qiu Tu, she finally decided to temporarily step down, recharge, and wait for the opportunity to work for the shelter again.

This reason not only made her resignation reasonable, but also prevented her political opponents from finding fault with her.

It also laid the groundwork for "returning to the position of leader in the future and giving everything for the company."

She even specifically pointed out that "Qiu Tu is the "temporary" head of state", making everything clear.

Just like that, after these words were spoken, all the elders didn't know how to express their opinions for a moment.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu also spoke.

He looked around at all the elders present, and then said in a deep voice, "Now that President Lin has finished speaking, who is in favor and who is against?"

After saying that, he took the lead in raising his hand, "I agree."

I heard that he finally expressed his attitude.

Wei Zhengze, who considers himself a die-hard fan of Qiu Tu, was the first to raise his hand in support.

He smiled and said, "I listen to Elder Qiu, and I agree with him."

The Wei family was originally one of the three major families in Shelter 7. There were many families and elders following behind them.

As soon as he opened his mouth, five or six elders raised their hands.

People tend to follow the crowd. Once a gap is opened, the countdown to the collapse of everything will begin.

So, after a while, one after another, all the elders present raised their hands to approve it.

Just like that, this "coup" that should have ended with a bloody storm was actually completed quickly in a very simple way.

One of the veterans secretly looked at his watch and found that only 26 minutes had passed!

'That's it? ’

"What about fighting? What about quarreling?"

For a moment, some elders even suspected that there was something wrong with their brains.

"What kind of drug did Qiu Tu give Princess Xi?"

"How could such an ambitious woman who had just sat on the throne willingly lie dormant again?"

With deep confusion, this far-reaching yet extremely brief meeting ended unexpectedly.

However, the impact of this meeting has obviously just begun!
After Qiu Tu and Princess Xi left the conference room one after the other, Qiu Tu invited them, "Do you want to come to my place to do it?"

After hearing what Qiu Tu said, Princess Xi glanced at him calmly, then politely declined, "No. I still have a lot of things to do."

After saying that, she got into her convoy without waiting for Qiu Tu to react.

The vehicles started, and one of the cars in the convoy slowly rolled down its window, revealing Yanyan's pure, angelic little face.

Seeing Qiu Tu, Yanyan smiled at him and whispered, "Master~~" with her mouth, then rolled her eyes and stuck out her tongue.

At that moment, Qiu Tu only had one feeling: his waist was numb.
Yanyan, Xueer and Ai Li.
In fact, Ellie had already been promoted to the position of director before this promotion, so adjusting her rank to the deputy speaker level is a normal promotion.

Yanyan and Xueer have lower job ranks, both at the director level.

Therefore, there is indeed a lot of criticism about the two people's extraordinary promotion.

Especially Qiu Tu, who promoted Yanyan to the level of speaker in one go, was responsible for all the affairs of the Ministry of the Interior in Shelter 7. Many people asked Qiu Tu if this appointment was too casual.

Before, Qiu Tu actually had doubts in his heart.

But once today's events were over, Qiu Tu no longer had any doubts in his heart.

The reason is very simple. Those elders couldn't understand why Princess Xi agreed to abdicate to Qiu Tu so easily and then pave the way for Qiu Tu.

And Qiu Tu actually didn't quite understand it either.

Because it wasn't his job to persuade, lobby or cajole.

At that time, after he expressed this idea, the little bitch Yanyan volunteered to solve the problem.

As a result, that evening, Qiu Tu received good news from Yanyan, saying that everything was settled.

Qiu Tu asked how she did it, but Yanyan just smiled and said "it's a secret", asking Qiu Tu to trust her.

To be honest, when Qiu Tu heard Yanyan's words, he couldn't help but think: An honest child gets into big trouble.
He always felt that Yanyan seemed to be planning something big.
However, Qiu Tu really does not have the energy to take care of the affairs of the "Northwest Region" now. His mind is now entirely on promotion and "Godhood".

So, he let Yanyan act recklessly.

Again, to some extent, the more chaotic the "Northwest Territory" is, the easier it will be for him to clean up the mess when he returns.
At this time, just when Qiu Tu was thinking this.

The news that Qiu Tu had made Princess Xi resign from Shelter No. 1 without a single drop of blood began to spread rapidly throughout the major shelters.
