Then let them show their loyalty!

Chapter 850 Qiu Tu has betrayed us! (Seeking monthly votes)
Because it was his first time attending the conference, Qiu Tu was very curious about everything.

Seeing so many figures appear around him one after another, he couldn't help but look over curiously.

This magical realm is indeed very magical. It is clearly something like an illusion, but it feels like reality. It can not only completely show a person's appearance and clothing, but also perfectly present the person's aura and presence.

So when Qiu Tu glanced around, his first thought was: There are so many experts here.
Level 4 God King, Level 4 God King, Level 4 Peak, Guardian God King.
God-Kings of Level 4 or above, who are rarely seen in normal times, are as common as cabbages on the roadside here.

As Qiu Tu was observing the gods, the gazes of the gods also turned towards him.

It wasn't that they were as curious as Qiu Tu, but rather that Qiu Tu's aura was too weak, only at level two.

This stood out conspicuously at a meeting attended entirely by level four or higher god-kings. It was quite like a chicken among cranes.

At this moment, while Qiu Tu and the other attending god-kings were observing each other, Qing'e was indeed finding it difficult to withstand the immense pressure.

She hunched her beautiful swan neck, gently tugged at Qiu Tu's sleeve, and whispered, "Lord Qiu Tu, please don't do that. It's very impolite."

Upon hearing Qing'e's words, Qiu Tu couldn't help but turn around and glance at her.

Qing'e quickly frowned, shook her head, and gave a pleading look.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu realized he had been a bit too arrogant, so he readily withdrew his gaze.

Sure enough, once Qiu Tu stopped acting out of line, the other God-Kings who appeared in turn also withdrew their gazes and stopped staring at Qiu Tu so directly.

Even so, Qiu Tu was still too conspicuous in the entire venue, so they would still glance at him out of the corner of their eyes when they turned around or made other movements.

The "path of order" places the utmost importance on rules and regulations. This is also true of the God-King Council.

Qiu Tu was new to the area and didn't know much about it. The other God-Kings, however, were clearly veterans. So they naturally went to their respective positions, corresponding to their power and status, and stood still.

Qiu Tu was also pulled by Qing'e to the third area, where they stood in the last row.

At this moment, Qiu Tu discovered that many familiar faces had already arrived in the third area. These included the Heavy Stone God King, the Star Forging God King, and Hua Wanwan.
Upon seeing Qiu Tu's arrival, the group looked over. Hua Wanwan was clearly surprised, her brows furrowing slightly. The Heavy Stone God King nodded slightly in acknowledgment, while the Star Forging God King bowed respectfully to Qiu Tu.

The "temple" level God-King meeting is attended by high-ranking officials from various branches who are extremely busy with their daily affairs. Time is very precious, so the God-Kings do not have much time to arrive.

Before long, the entire Divine Light Plain fell silent, and the eyes of the three enormous statues began to slowly light up—the three giants had arrived.

Just then, footsteps sounded beside Qiu Tu.

Qiu Tu followed the sound of footsteps and looked to his side, then saw Elena rushing to the third area in the last second, looking travel-worn.

Perhaps because she was so anxious, her forehead was even covered with a layer of fine sweat.

Upon arriving at the third area, Elena visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

She was just about to revert to her usual lazy demeanor when she caught a glimpse of Qiu Tu out of the corner of her eye.

A smile instantly appeared on her face. Instead of going to the front row, she walked to Qiu Tu's side and asked telepathically, "You're here?"

Upon hearing Elena's soft inquiry, Qiu Tu smiled.

He gave a soft "hmm" and then transmitted his voice, "I've been looking for you all afternoon."

"Looking for me?" Elena looked at Qiu Tu with a slightly strange expression.

At this moment, the three giants of order had already arrived, and the various districts had begun formal reporting. However, because the two were communicating telepathically, they did not attract the attention of others; in fact, it even felt somewhat thrilling and clandestine.

Qiu Tu stared straight ahead at the towering statue, then hummed in agreement again and transmitted his voice, "Yes. There's something I'd like to discuss with you. I'd like to hear your opinion."

During her time with Qiu Tu, Elena had come to understand his personality quite well. This guy was usually quite carefree. But once he became serious, it was definitely something important.

So although she maintained that languid and alluring demeanor on the surface, she had already become serious inside. "Speak~~"

Meanwhile, Qing'e, standing on the other side of Qiu Tu, was also standing there with her eyes fixed straight ahead, but her peripheral vision was constantly watching Qiu Tu and Elena.

After returning from outside the white mist, Qing'e had been hesitant about whether or not to tell Elena about her relationship with Qiu Tu.

Based on her relationship with Elena and her past habits, she would tell Elena about this.

However, for some reason, Qing'e would always stop in her tracks whenever she reached the gates of Elena's palace.

Deep down, she seemed unwilling to tell Elena everything.

She didn't know the reason. She only guessed that it might be because she couldn't face Elena, or because she was worried about angering Elena because of this.

However, when she saw Qiu Tu waiting for Elena in front of Elena's palace gates all afternoon, and Elena's first action upon arriving at the Divine Light Plains was to talk to Qiu Tu, she suddenly felt a little irritated.
What's wrong with me?

'Could it be because you're remembering the misunderstanding with Qiu Tu?'

The reason why Qing'e and Qiu Tu had that outrageous incident was ultimately because Qing'e misunderstood the relationship between Qiu Tu and Elena, as well as the definition of massage.

That's why Qiu Tu touched her all over for no reason, and even ate chicken and drank chicken soup.

Seeing Qiu Tu and Elena's intimate conversation, Qing'e felt it was reasonable for her to recall this upsetting matter.

So she felt relieved and stopped worrying about it.

However, she probably didn't even realize that although she thought she didn't care, her hands were still clenched tightly.
Soon, the various branches finished reporting their respective situations.

Because of the surprise attack launched by the "Immortal Tomb" and the "Destruction Tyrant," the entire "Ancient Continent" is now in turmoil. Coupled with the instigation of the "Four Giants of Order," every region is now incredibly unstable.

The western and southern branches were completely shrouded in white fog, and normal communication through all channels was almost completely cut off.

Unless it's like the "Temple of Order," which is activated by a high-ranking god-king and requires a certain price to break through the white mist array's blockade, all other communication methods are now obsolete.

Furthermore, due to the sudden attack by the "Immortal Trio," high-ranking god-kings from all walks of life have gathered in the "West," and no one knows whether a conflict will break out.

This also made intelligence work a top priority.

Therefore, it was only natural that a god-king stepped forward and said, "Your Majesties, I think the most urgent task now is to rebuild the intelligence system."

"The greater the era, the more important intelligence work becomes."

"A single piece of crucial intelligence could be worth more than a hundred God-Kings."

"Therefore, we need someone to infiltrate other spheres of influence, make contact with previous intelligence agents, and rebuild the intelligence network."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Of these, the most important and urgent is undoubtedly the 'Immortal Heavenly Tomb.'"

"I think we must quickly identify someone to infiltrate the ranks of the 'Immortal Triumvirate' and rebuild our intelligence network." With these words from the God-King, the entire Divine Light Plain fell silent.

The "Temple" is the gathering place of the God-Kings of the "Order Path," so none of the God-Kings who can become high-ranking members of the "Temple" are fools.

At such an important meeting, no one would offer suggestions without the authorization of the four leaders.

After all, those who become high-ranking god-kings all have their own factions. They can simply communicate their ideas privately with the high-ranking god-king they belong to.

The fact that it's being brought up in front of so many people clearly indicates that it has received the approval of a high-ranking god-king.

Meanwhile, Qiu Tu had just told Elena about his contact and conversation with the Ink God King and the Star Forger God King that day.

When Elena first listened, her face still held a touch of elegance and languor.

When she heard that Qiu Tu had agreed to the Star Forger God King's request to infiltrate the "Immortal Trio," her expression became extremely solemn.

In fact, contrary to her usual lazy and indifferent demeanor, she said through gritted teeth, "No wonder I was given an urgent task today."

"So that was to get me out of there!"

"It prevented you from communicating with me in advance, and it also prevented me from asking the Dark God King for his opinion."

"In this way, they can make everything a fait accompli."

At this point, Elena quickly dissuaded Qiu Tu, saying, "Qiu Tu, although I don't know what kind of schemes they're plotting, I suggest you don't agree."

"You should listen to me and His Majesty the Ink-Colored Lord now, and focus on recuperation and cultivation in the 'Kingdom of the God of Wine'."

Upon hearing Elena's words, Qiu Tu shook his head slightly. He said, "My lord, please forgive me for not being able to agree to your request."

"I know that the path you have chosen for me is the safest and most secure."

"But in this era of great strife, I don't want to just hide away and quietly remain a spark."

There's a saying in my hometown: "The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish. If you don't take a chance now, you'll be left far behind by others in times of peace."

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Elena frowned and quickly tried to dissuade him further.

Then, at that moment, someone in the front row of the third section suddenly spoke.

“What the God-King Oborozuki said makes a lot of sense. Our top priority now is indeed to rebuild our intelligence network.”

"Therefore, I, Zi'e, hereby recommend a god-king from our 'Western Branch': Qiu Tu."

"Just two days ago, he traversed two areas of white mist, successfully leading his team back from the 'Chaotic Western Capital' with dozens of prisoners, achieving a great feat."

"Furthermore, he already worked in the 'Execution Department.' Therefore, he can be said to be the God-King who understands the White Mist Array best and is most skilled in intelligence work among all God-Kings."

Upon hearing the voice recommending Qiu Tu, Qiu Tu and Elena couldn't help but look up.

Then they saw the Star Forger God King standing in the front row, bowing at a 70-degree angle as he explained his reasons for recommending Qiu Tu.

If one didn't know about Qiu Tu's hostile relationship with him, and only looked at his solemn actions, one would think that he was very good to Qiu Tu.

However, it's possible that the bribing of Qiu Tu to go undercover was done privately by Mitchell's faction, without consulting the other two giants. Therefore, as the Star Forger God King finished speaking, the movements of the statues in the middle and on the left noticeably paused.

Seeing that neither of them expected him to make such a move, the statue of King Mitchell on the far right also spoke up, wanting to seize the opportunity to make a final decision.

He said slowly, "Qiu Tu? I've also heard about his feat of traversing the white mist formation and bringing back prisoners; he did an excellent job."

"so."

If Elena could tell that Mitchell and the Star Forger were up to no good, then the Dark God King would certainly be even more likely to guess.

Seeing that Mitchell was about to finalize the matter, the Ink-Colored God-King quickly snapped out of his reverie and interrupted him, "God-King Qiu Tu is indeed an outstanding talent. However... I already have another appointment for him. I..."

Seeing that the Dark God King wanted to regain the initiative, Mitchell was completely unconcerned. A smile appeared on his statue, and then he interrupted the Dark God King again, "Dark God King, no mission is as important as rebuilding the intelligence network."

"Furthermore, I think we should listen to the opinion of God King Qiu Tu on this matter."

"Let's see which task he wants to carry out."

"After all, our 'Temple' has its own rules and regulations. He just returned from a major mission, and theoretically, he should have a relatively long period of rest."

"So, whether he wants to carry out the mission, and which mission he wants to carry out, is actually the most important thing."

Upon hearing that Mitchell dared to let Qiu Tu choose, the Dark God King's expression changed slightly. He had obviously guessed that Mitchell must have secretly contacted Qiu Tu and offered him a price that would tempt him.

She wanted to refuse the suggestion, but Mitchell's proposal was so reasonable that it was impossible to find fault with it. So for a moment, she could only remain silent.

At the same time, all the fourth and fifth level god-kings present also noticed that something was wrong.

Just now, two giants actually got into a fight over a god-king?
Qiu Tu God King?
Even if the high-ranking officials in each region don't know each other, they can still match names with appearances. But since no one recognizes this name, it can only be the Level Two God-King who is attending the high-level meeting for the first time today.
Thinking this, many God-Kings turned slightly to the side and focused their gaze on Qiu Tu, the second-level God-King who had caused a conflict between the two giants, wanting to see how he was going to answer.

At this moment, Elena also realized that something was wrong and repeatedly sent telepathic messages to Qiu Tu to calm down.

"Qiu Tu, whatever you do, don't agree to Mitchell's offer. At least say you'll think about it first. We can analyze their intentions in detail after the meeting."

However, despite Elena's repeated attempts to communicate telepathically, Qiu Tu seemed not to hear her.

And so, at this moment of great anticipation, Qiu Tu finally spoke.

He looked up at the three towering statues, then bowed and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty Mitchell. But I have already promised Your Majesty the Dark to carry out her mission."

"And her mission happened to be related to establishing an intelligence network."

So, I'm really sorry.

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, the Star Forging God King in the front row suddenly turned around, looking at Qiu Tu with astonishment, as if he were seeing Qiu Tu for the first time. His cloudy eyes were filled with disbelief, as if he couldn't understand how Qiu Tu dared to play tricks on a high-ranking God King.

The three towering statues also paused abruptly.

They're not fools. Since Mitchell dared to propose that Qiu Tu carry out his mission in this situation, he must have already reached an agreement with Qiu Tu.

Qiu Tu actually dared to break the contract in public. This was tantamount to trampling on the face of a high-ranking god-king, and even crushing it!

Has Qiu Tu gone mad?
Asking for a monthly ticket.
