Let them offer their loyalty!
Chapter 1731 - 708: Shocked Leaders from All Sides
"Crimson Territory?"
Upon hearing Candle Dance’s words, Qiu Tu didn’t pay much attention.
Having seen so many Evil Gods and forces visiting earlier, his clear mind already deduced that various forces were beginning to pledge allegiance and choose sides.
As for "Crimson Territory" Doris’s choice, Qiu Tu wasn’t surprised either.
Although Doris has become a Heavenly God, she is ultimately alone, comparatively weaker than Qiu Tu’s side.
Whether she wants to continue advancing upward or deal with the many Divine Kings that might invade this world, she needs to find an organization to provide shelter.
And Qiu Tu’s side is clearly her best choice.
So, her coming to congratulate him on ascending to Heavenly God is an expression of her stance.
With this thought, Qiu Tu waved his hand indifferently, then said, "Alright. I got it."
"I’ll take a rest, then go see her."
Upon hearing Qiu Tu’s words, Candle Dance nodded slightly and prepared to leave—currently, most of Qiu Tu’s confidants aren’t in Eastern City, only she, the former "Heavenly God Reincarnation," is comparable to Doris.
So, after Doris’s arrival, she is fully in charge of the reception. She’s very busy!
However, just when she and Qiu Tu were passing by each other, Qiu Tu suddenly felt something was off.
Vaguely, he felt that Candle Dance was exuding a mixed emotion of suppressing laughter and anticipation for drama.
The feeling was very subtle, yet very clear.
So, Qiu Tu couldn’t help but call Candle Dance, "Wait a moment."
Upon hearing Qiu Tu’s words, Candle Dance stopped all of a sudden. She looked at Qiu Tu with curiosity, then asked, "What’s up? Daddy."
Qiu Tu gave her a suspicious look, then asked, "Are you hiding something from me?"
Upon hearing Qiu Tu’s words, Candle Dance immediately showed a pretentious fake smile, "Nope!"
Qiu Tu squinted his eyes, looking at her dangerously.
Among all of Qiu Tu’s confidants, Candle Dance is the most shameless.
This woman has rebelliousness under the weight of her large chest. Although not to the point of betraying Qiu Tu, watching drama unfold and seeing Qiu Tu suffer are her favorite pastimes.
So, since he noticed Candle Dance’s odd behavior, Qiu Tu of course had to inquire clearly.
Sure enough, seeing that Qiu Tu detected the anomaly, Candle Dance first put her hands in her pockets, whistling to feign nonchalance.
Upon realizing Qiu Tu wasn’t deceived, she then waved her hand irritably, "Alright, alright, I’ll tell you."
After which, she showed a mischievous smile, her eyes turning into amber vertical snake pupils.
She approached Qiu Tu, hooking his neck, then said with a grin, "Daddy, someone is begging to come and be the godmother."
"Godmother?" Qiu Tu was momentarily stunned. Then his brain raced, analyzing with the intelligence Candle Dance reported, in an instant, he reached a conclusion.
He looked at Candle Dance with some surprise, then said, "You mean... Doris came this time to offer herself?"
"How did you know?"
Candle Dance’s face held more mischievousness; she didn’t answer Qiu Tu’s question but instead pat Qiu Tu’s shoulder as if watching the fun, then left the villa with her hands in her pockets.
Watching the woman’s rogue-like back, Qiu Tu: .... 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
It’s truly amazing that anyone can become a Heavenly God. The previous "Heavenly God" standards were low.
Thinking this, Qiu Tu went upstairs to bathe and refresh himself.
During the bath and rest, Qiu Tu’s mind couldn’t help but ponder Doris’s motives for offering herself.
Assuming Candle Dance’s intel is true, it seems that Doris decided to completely pledge allegiance to him this time.
Even willing to gamble herself.
This isn’t a bad thing for Qiu Tu, after all, be it Doris’s power, her influence, or the intelligence and resources her father left behind, all can bolster Qiu Tu’s side.
And even disregarding all external factors, Doris, the "Crimson Territory Beauty of Four Nations," is inherently valuable enough.
Doris is undoubtedly the most beautiful, alluring, and captivating woman Qiu Tu has ever met.
Coupled with her numerous admirers across the "Boundless Heart Sea," gaining such a woman’s loyalty is naturally a joyous matter both physically and mentally.
Of course, benefits come with costs.
Acquiring such a peerless beauty, Qiu Tu would likely lose many worries, and could potentially miss out on much nourishment.
This requires caution for Qiu Tu in his golden developmental age.
Additionally, there’s a lingering concern, that is... Considering Doris joins the Qiu Tu camp as a "Heavenly God," her positioning, and her identity within Qiu Tu’s entire camp, must be carefully arranged.
Otherwise, Doris’s inclusion might plant hidden dangers in Qiu Tu’s rear.
With these thoughts, Qiu Tu’s brain continued to turn, contemplating how to manage this situation more proficiently...
With Candle Dance’s prior tip-off, and his previous interactions with Doris, Qiu Tu soon had some ideas.
Therefore, he was finally at ease while resting and planned to arrange meetings with various forces and deities.
Possibly because Qiu Tu is now dominant throughout the "Boundless Heart Sea," except for die-hard loyalists of the four Divine Kings and a few unbalanced forces, all know survival in "Boundless Heart Sea" requires Qiu Tu’s goodwill.
Consequently, various powers from the three Divine Kingdoms, and even... seven or eight forces from the "Southern Kingdom," almost all came to Eastern City bearing gifts.
