Chapter 900: Gained the Princess's Trust? (Win an iPad with your monthly vote!)
Once inside the screen, Qiu Tu discovered that Hui Ming was already sitting on the edge of the bed, leaning over to select a book from a hidden compartment at the head of the bed.

Clearly, this princess had a habit of reading before bed.

It's obvious that Cloud Cat God King and Hui Ming are very familiar with each other, and they've slept together more than once.

So, seeing Hui Ming choosing books, she lightly leaped onto the bed.

The bed was soft and warm. The Cloud Cat God King stretched out his little paw and pressed it on, then lightly rolled over and tumbled on it, revealing his white belly, looking incredibly silly and cute.

Although Qiu Tu was merely copying the Cloud Cat God King's every move, and it wasn't something he wanted to do himself, he still felt a strange sense of shame at that moment.

At this moment, Princess Huiming clearly noticed Qiu Tu's series of adorable actions. She paused slightly before reaching out to take out the book she had chosen.

Huiming picked up the book, turned around, and then got into bed.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu took small, leisurely steps and walked over to Hui Ming's side, rubbing his furry head against her bare calves, making a "gurgling" sound in his throat.

Huiming paused in his reading and glanced down at him.

Even in the dim light, those cold phoenix eyes seemed to have taken on a hint of warmth.

Seeing that she didn't react, Qiu Tu took advantage of the situation and crawled to her side, curled up beside her, found a comfortable position to lie down, and brushed her arm with the tip of his tail.

Huiming did not drive him away, but let him do as he pleased, his gaze returning to the book.

The tent fell silent again, save for the faint snoring and the soft rustling of pages turning.

Qiu Tu lay there, seemingly replicating the ease of the Cloud Cat God King, but in reality, all his senses were heightened to the highest level.

He could sense that although Huiming was reading, most of his attention was actually on him. Clearly, Huiming still didn't doubt him.

After an unknown amount of time, Huiming finally closed the book, placed it by the bedside, pulled the blanket over himself, and slowly lay down.

The soft bed sank slightly as she moved, and the light went out.

Sensing Huiming's movement, Qiu Tu meowed and hopped over to Huiming's pillow, then nestled against her neck.

Because he was so close to Huiming, he could even clearly feel the gentle, even breathing of Huiming's skin.

Huiming's body stiffened for a moment.

She could feel the soft, furry touch and warm breath brushing against her neck, bringing a slight tickle. This was "Cloud Cat's" favorite sleeping position, and also their most intimate posture.

In the past, she would feel incredibly safe at times like this. But today, her intuition was screaming alarm bells.

Reason told her that the "Cloud Cat God King" in front of her was perfect and impeccable, but the warning from the depths of her soul always lingered in her heart.

She reached out, her fingertips hesitating for a fleeting moment before touching the soft, smooth fur.

Finally, her hand fell, gently stroking the cat's back again and again.

The touch under her hands was warm and real, and the satisfied "gurgling" sound seemed to have a magical power, gradually calming the restlessness in her heart.

'Maybe... I'm just overthinking it?'

Huiming asked himself this question.

She slowly closed her eyes.
But with his other hand, he silently cast a defensive divine skill under the covers, ready to be activated at any moment.
Soon, the entire camp fell into complete silence.

Only the faint snoring and the indistinct sound of the wind outside the tent intertwined to create an eerie yet tranquil nocturne.
Silent all night.

The next day, when Qiu Tu woke up, he found himself nestled in Kaguya's arms. A delicate fragrance lingered around his nose, and his body was enveloped in an astonishing softness.

When Huiming was sleeping, he was only wearing a silky, close-fitting nightgown. Therefore, Qiu Tu's body was pressed tightly against an amazingly soft and warm surface, the touch of which almost made his claws sink deep into it.

This was clearly the work of Cloud Cat God King.

Actually, Qiu Tu didn't want to sleep last night. As a god-king, he could go months without sleep without any effect on his body.

However, after spending a long time in bed, Qiu Tu realized that his idea was wrong.

Because he is now the Cloud Cat God King.

As the confidant and pet of Princess Huiming, sleeping with Princess Huiming should be a perfectly normal thing for Cloud Cat God King.

In this situation, Cloud Cat God King should fall asleep quickly, rather than staying up all night.

If Qiu Tu doesn't sleep, it will expose his identity.

Finally, Qiu Tu, having figured everything out, put the Cloud Cat God King to sleep and then went to sleep as well.

Furthermore, he even set up a dream where he completely simulated the sleeping posture of the Cloud Cat God King and woke up with him.

When he woke up, he found himself sleeping in Princess Huiming's arms.
To be honest, under other special circumstances, Qiu Tu might have dared to try something on his own. But in this situation, he really didn't dare to act recklessly at all. He could only continue to replicate the actions and expressions of the Cloud Cat God King.

So, he secretly raised his head and looked at the Radiant Princess who was holding him.

As it turned out, Princess Huiming seemed to be waiting for him, and looked down at him.

Qiu Tu and Cloud Cat God King blinked in unison, then let out a cute "meow~".

Qiu Tu wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that Princess Huiming's eyes seemed to smile for a moment.

But the smile was fleeting, almost impossible to catch. So Qiu Tu couldn't be sure if he had seen wrong.

Just as Qiu Tu was pondering, Hui Ming's hand gently fell, landing squarely on his buttocks.

"Get up when you're awake." Her voice was slightly hoarse from just waking up, but still authoritative. "We're very busy today."

Upon hearing Princess Huiming's words, Qiu Tu outwardly mimicked the actions of the Cloud Cat God King, but inwardly he felt a slight chill.

Are you busy today?

Qiu Tu couldn't help but have a guess.

As expected, after Princess Huiming stood up, she said calmly, "This morning, Ghost Face sent word that they have made contact with the envoy from the Temple of Order."

The "Temple of Order" envoy clearly referred to Qiu Tu. Therefore, upon hearing Princess Huiming's words, Qiu Tu immediately thought to himself: "Just as I thought."
However, although his guess was confirmed, Qiu Tu did not feel too uneasy.

Because he was the one who arranged all of this.

As soon as Qiu Tu discovered that he was being targeted by Princess Huiming, he knew that simply proving that he was innocent would not be enough to dispel the suspicions of this woman who stood at the pinnacle of the world.

He also had to eliminate any other possibilities from Princess Huiming's mind.

Only in this way can Princess Huiming truly believe that she is the real Cloud Cat God King.

Thinking carefully about everyone Yunmao Shenwang had been close to during this period, if she had really been "replaced," then he would definitely be the prime suspect.

In this situation, as long as there is another "Qiu Tu" active in "Destroying the Royal Court", one's suspicion will be greatly reduced.

Even if Princess Huiming were incredibly shrewd and suspicious, and guessed that Qiu Tu had the ability to completely replace another person, it would still be difficult for her to guess that there was another person in the world who possessed the same ability as Qiu Tu.

The probability of this is extremely small.

It was because of these considerations that Qiu Tu arranged for Zhao Ji to infiltrate back before leaving the "Destruction Royal Court" and re-establish contact with the Shadow Division of the "Destruction Royal Court" by turning the tables on them.

And now, it's clear that Zehime has succeeded.
Although these ideas seem numerous, they only flashed through Qiu Tu's mind briefly.

Even at this moment, he did not forget to continue to replicate the Cloud Cat God King's every move one-to-one.

And, I don’t know if it’s an illusion.

When Qiu Tu woke up this morning, he felt that Princess Huiming's attitude towards him seemed to have softened a lot.

'Could it really be because of that arrangement?'

Because there were too few clues, Qiu Tu was unable to make a judgment for the time being.

He's currently living under someone else's roof, surrounded by danger and intrigue. He can't think too much about things; he can only proceed cautiously, taking it one step at a time.
Thinking this way, Qiu Tu continued to pretend to be the Cloud Cat God King and listened to the arrangements of Princess Huiming.

Perhaps Qiu Tu's constant imitation of the Cloud Cat God King's state finally earned him some of Princess Huiming's trust; perhaps Qiu Tu's unguarded state last night truly made Princess Huiming begin to trust him; or perhaps Qiu Tu's arrangements for "destroying the royal court" finally dispelled Princess Huiming's doubts about him.

In short, Princess Huiming's attitude towards Qiu Tu was indeed completely different from last night. This difference was not only reflected in Princess Huiming's attitude, but also in her actions.
For example, when Princess Huiming was changing her clothes this morning, she didn't even try to hide it from Qiu Tu.

When the silk nightgown slipped off that perfect body, Qiu Tu's eyes widened in disbelief, almost staring in disbelief. He had never expected such a reward first thing in the morning.

Fortunately, the Cloud Cat God King was not interested in women and his expression did not show any problems, otherwise he would most likely have been noticed by the Radiant Princess.

Even though he gradually began to trust Qiu Tu, Hui Ming still didn't let Qiu Tu leave after he changed his clothes.

"You'll accompany me to handle some official business today."

One sentence decided Qiu Tu's entire schedule for the day.

Qiu Tu had no choice but to silently nod his head.

Moreover, Qiu Tu is indeed very interested in the battle situation in "Chaotic Western Capital".

Therefore, upon hearing Princess Huiming's order, Qiu Tu immediately squatted down on Princess Huiming's long table and silently read the battle report.

Judging from the battle report, the combined forces of "Destroyed Royal Court" and "Immortal Tomb" are significantly larger and stronger than the "Chaos Faction".

Furthermore, the "Chaos Gods" have always been dim-witted and not very good at coordinating, resembling a group of scattered soldiers. And the "Chaos Faction" has been slow to send reinforcements.

Therefore, the "Chaotic Western Capital" suffered repeated defeats in this great battle.

To date, most of the "Chaotic Western Capital" has been captured, with only one core area remaining unconquered.

As for why the two armies of the two major camps, despite their immense strength, couldn't conquer that last area, Qiu Tu had some clues from the battle reports.

He felt there were three reasons.

First, Mu Xin, the guardian god-king of "Chaotic Western Capital," also known as Lao Bai, has a strength in "Chaotic Western Capital" that is almost close to that of a high-level god-king.

Unless the leaders of the two major camps personally intervene, no other god-king, even the guardian god-kings, can stand against him.

Secondly, the great war between "Destroy the Royal Court" and "Immortal Heavenly Tomb" was not really for the sake of a small "Chaotic Western Capital", but also for the sake of the entire "Eternal Continent".

Their goal was to create chaos in the western capital, besiege the city and attack its reinforcements, and drag all the other major routes into the mess.

As it turns out, the various factions weren't fools. After realizing something was wrong, they all tacitly decided to use "Chaotic West Capital" as a pawn to observe the two major camps.

Neither side achieved its objective, so naturally they didn't want the war to end so quickly.

The third, and most important, issue is that "Destroying Royal Court" and "Immortal Heavenly Tomb" have not yet reached a final cooperation agreement.

Before the interests of both sides are properly divided, they will naturally have to suspend their offensive.
It has to be said that after penetrating deep into the enemy camp, especially into the core of the enemy, Qiu Tu felt that he had a more comprehensive understanding of the situation of the entire "Root Ancient Continent".

It seems there's still time.

And just like that, the day came to an end.

The god and the cat didn't interact much that day.

Because Princess Huiming was so busy, Qiu Tu felt that she hadn't had a moment's rest all day, looking at this battle report, reading that report, meeting with this god-king, and meeting with that god-king.

Throughout the entire process, Qiu Tu stayed by her side.

Sometimes I would squat on the long table, sometimes I would lie on her lap, and sometimes she would hold me in her arms, enjoying her caresses.
It has to be said that this is the most leisurely time Qiu Tu has had since he came to the "Eternal Continent".

Just when Qiu Tu thought that the day would pass smoothly and uneventfully,

After finishing her official duties for the day, Princess Huiming rose and slowly walked to the sand table in the center of the camp.

Then, while calling over the lady-in-waiting Ruolan to arrange dinner, she casually glanced at the sand table and said to Qiu Tu, as if chatting in passing.
"Oh, right, I forgot to tell you this morning. Ghost Face said that the envoy from the 'Temple of Order' is always cunning. He might have seen through their scheme after just one encounter."

"Therefore, to prevent any unforeseen complications, they plan to make their move against the special envoy during their first meeting tonight."

Upon hearing Princess Huiming's words, Qiu Tu remained expressionless, but his heart skipped a beat: ! ? ——
