Chapter 1684 - 694: Southern God King: As Expected of the One I Approve Of
Ever since entering the study, the person in white hardly left any room for error. Apart from admitting his identity, he revealed no critical information.
This caused Qiu Tu to raise his evaluation and caution about him by two more levels.
Just like that, the two of them discussed their next plan.
Since they were both smart, one walkthrough was enough for them to understand the key points and details.
After finishing this discussion, Qiu Tu stood up to see the person in white out.
Watching as the white figure slowly disappeared into the study, Qiu Tu stood by the window and lit a cigarette while gazing at the scenery outside.
As he smoked quietly, Qiu Tu also reminisced about his plan.
Actually, his plan was very simple. In the words of a great figure: make as many friends as possible, and as few enemies as possible.
Unite all the forces that can be united, strike at all enemies unable to reconcile.
During this time, the series of deeds Qiu Tu did were just probing and dividing the four Divine Kings.
The rise of Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji would inevitably affect the interests of the four Divine Kings and would also provoke their counterattack.
Four Heavenly God-level masters making a move, with one being a Peak Heavenly God, Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji were 100% unable to resist.
But... what if they weren’t facing the four Divine Kings?
What if they let the four Divine Kings be at odds with each other?
Wouldn’t everything then become easy to resolve?
After all...the four Divine Kings were originally of one mind, but when facing the impact from Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji, their thoughts would definitely diverge.
That’s why Qiu Tu had Zhao Ji provoke the Northern God King, and that’s why Qiu Tu investigated the issue with the person in white.
All this was just in choosing which target to divide.
And now, it seems the results were rather good: After being provoked for two or three days, the Northern God King still didn’t come out, leading Qiu Tu to know that the weakest of the four Divine Kings really didn’t want to be at odds with Zhao Ji.
Under such circumstances, as long as you promised him that the previous conflicts and contradictions were misunderstandings, it would be easy for him to remain uninvolved.
If you provided him with some benefits, of course, it would be easier to pull him into your camp.
As for the person in white, he was bound onto his chariot with his secret.
When the person in white chose "reincarnation and re-cultivation", he already stood on the opposite side of the other three Divine Kings.
Because he not only betrayed his own camp, but...he also provided the other three Divine Kings a chance to strengthen themselves—by taking over his territory, other Divine Kings’ strengths would improve further.
So, when Qiu Tu learned his secret, he could only stand on this side.
Thinking about this and reminiscing all his plans, Qiu Tu’s heart filled with determination.
In the past, it was he and Zhao Ji against the four Divine Kings.
Now it was he and Zhao Ji, along with two Divine Kings versus the other two Divine Kings.
In the silent machinations of Qiu Tu, the balance of victory had quietly shifted.
"Really looking forward to seeing the expressions of the East God King and the West God King at that time..."
After indulging in this mischievous thought, Qiu Tu extinguished his cigarette butt and turned around to step back inside the house...
....
Soon, another three days passed.
During these three days, many things happened.
The biggest thing was the "Heavenly God Trial" ranking underwent another huge change.
Qiu Tu, who refined all regions, successfully advanced to the Eighth Rank Peak. Then his ranking finally officially entered the top three and surpassed Shao Hua, becoming second only to Zhao Ji!
The second big event was Qing Lan’s unexpected rise, thanks to her amazing talent, her refining speed of the "Boundless Heart Sea Region" was incredibly fast.
In just a few days, she advanced to the late Eighth Rank, and she was still improving rapidly.
Even more astonishing, perhaps she really had 90% of Zhao Ji’s talent, she managed to advance into the top ten of the "Heavenly God Trial" with her late Eighth Rank strength.
According to her current pace, it’s highly likely she would advance to the top 5 by the end of the "Heavenly God Trial".
Her rapid advancement drew a lot of attention, of course... It also made the already tense atmosphere before the inevitable battle even more intense.
