Let them offer their loyalty!-Chapter 640 - 365

Meanwhile, Tang Feifei needed to cooperate with Qiu Tu in establishing a reputation at the Investigation Bureau, securing the hearts of its people for Qiu Tu.

Furthermore, she had to ensure that the position of Acting Bureau Chief would be reserved for Qiu Tu, or at least prevent others from parachuting into Xinjie City to steal Qiu Tu’s spot.

—For Tang Feifei, who would be promoted later on, this wasn’t difficult.

After all, she was the Domain Master of the Xinjie Region and wielded tremendous influence over the various affairs of Xinjie City.

Through these steps, Qiu Tu’s identity would successfully transition from the light into the shadows, paralyzing the enemies and preserving key opportunities for development.

Then came the critical part of the trade.

After Tang Feifei became the State Council Chairman, Qiu Tu would most likely have already become the Deputy Director and refined the Central Hub, becoming a Pseudo Fourth-Order Cataclysmic.

Qiu Tu would ask Tang Feifei for assistance from the Fengtian Faction, dispatch experts of the Fake Fourth Rank Level, and join forces with Liu Xiongyuan to together annihilate the Evil Gods Whale Shark and Xie Yue!

Four Fourth Rank Experts, including Tang Feifei and Liu Xiongyuan who are martial arts-type Fourth Rank Experts, plus the hidden Cuiying Dragon Yiyi, the chances of success were actually quite high!

After slaying the two Evil Gods, Qiu Tu would obtain the Boundless Divine Crystal formed from the Whale Shark’s corpse.

The Boundless Divine Crystal formed from Xie Yue’s corpse would be freely distributed by Liu Xiongyuan and the Fengtian Faction expert.

Afterward, Qiu Tu and Tang Feifei would head to Wuhai City together, where he’d disclose to Tang Feifei the method to become a Domain Master and assist her in achieving that status.

By that point, Tang Feifei’s status as Domain Master would change from ’false’ to ’true.’ The position of Deputy Speaker would also be free from any threat.

And Qiu Tu... could then shift from ’shadow’ to ’light.’ He would officially reveal his status as Domain Master to the Sanctuary and strive for the position of Deputy Speaker!

This plan brought several benefits to Qiu Tu.

Firstly, it significantly reduced the dangers Qiu Tu faced during his initial undeveloped phase, with Tang Feifei standing out to withstand the pressure for him.

Secondly, he could bring down the powerful Fengtian Faction to face the Evil Gods Whale Shark and Xie Yue through Tang Feifei.

If Qiu Tu stuck to his original plan: after becoming a Domain Master himself, inviting Liu Xiongyuan, Tang Feifei, or other experts to confront Whale Shark and Xie Yue.

Given that Xinjie Region was his, he would certainly have had to pay a significant price.

But now, he essentially got his enforcers free of charge.

Thirdly, he could lay out plans in advance, strengthening his allies and his say in Dongye State.

Assuming he followed protocol to become a Domain Master and aimed for Deputy Speaker.

Let’s not talk about whether a nobody like him, with no faction backing him, would become the target of other factions with sinister plans. Just consider Huang Shangzong, who would likely use various excuses to delay Qiu Tu’s opportunity to become Deputy Speaker.

The political arena has oh so many methods of tormenting individuals. After Qiu Tu became Domain Master, he would be qualified for Deputy Speaker. But... how long it would take to achieve this, what procedures he’d have to go through, how many formalities he’d have to complete?

There would be too many opportunities for manipulation.

But this was not an issue for Tang Feifei; with the support of the Fengtian Faction behind her, becoming Deputy Speaker was simply a matter of course.

Once she became Deputy Speaker, in cooperation with insiders Liu Xiongyuan and Dai Yukang—her covert ally—with three of Dongye State’s five Speakers supporting Qiu Tu, everything would fall into place.

Even if Huang Shangzong was truly selfless and had no plans to meddle with Qiu Tu... just taking this extra detour would net an additional ally at the Deputy Speaker level, which was very much worth it.

Fourth, and most importantly... in this trade, Qiu Tu actually gave up nothing.

The Xinjie Region remained his.

The Boundless Divine Crystal used to promote Tang Feifei was the one tampered with by Zhao Ji. Qiu Tu hadn’t dared to use it anyway.

Moreover, Tang Feifei would later return double the amount of Divine Crystal to him.

As for the Whale Shark’s Wuhai Area...

That belonged to Larilo! What did it have to do with Qiu Tu? (Chapter 353)

Given his current strength and power, it would be good enough for him to hold onto a single region. He never had designs on the Wuhai Area to begin with.

So... whether it went to Larilo or Tang Feifei, it made no difference to him. He’d side with whoever had the greater benefit...

Maybe... neither of them would end up with the Wuhai Area...

Umm, Qiu Tu was already a Fourth-Order Catastrophe-evolver + the de facto Domain Master + Deputy Speaker, who could ask him to account for this?

Don’t fear Qiu Tu’s ability to win people over with virtue!

For the most part, just compensate them with a few hundred billion.

Or perhaps... why not join together again to raid another Evil God? Guaranteed success this time?

Of course, while Qiu Tu stood to gain tremendous advantages from this plan, Tang Feifei did as well.

Not to mention the somewhat ethereal status of Domain Master. Just by leaping to become a Pseudo Fourth-Order Cataclysmic and Deputy Speaker, she’d save nearly seven to eight years of time.

And if she could truly become a Domain Master, she would rise to the true upper echelons of the Fengtian Faction.

Even if she couldn’t, given she was the pillow-talk partner closest to Qiu Tu—the Domain Master—within the Fengtian Faction.

The Fengtian Faction, wanting to develop the Xinjie Region, would still have to cooperate with her and Qiu Tu.

She wouldn’t lose out.

That’s why today, when she saw Qiu Tu, she once again thanked him and said that the trade would interest many, it wasn’t just choosing her...

It can be said that Qiu Tu’s plan,

Just as he was entertaining these thoughts, Fang Tangtang bashfully covered her face, then proceed to untie the belt at her waist.

The next second, her robe slipped off, revealing before Qiu Tu a body as impeccably sculpted and flawless as white jade.
