Northwestern Region, Eastern City. The rain falls gently.

Perhaps because of the fall of the three Divine Kings, the weather has been terrible these past few days.

The entire world seems like a temperamental woman, raining one moment, windy the next, with lightning flashing and thunder rumbling in between.

"According to Zhao Ji, this happens because the Divine Kings are already connected to the 'World Origin' of this world."

"Therefore, when they fall, even the World Origin is somewhat harmed, causing it to shake."

Watching the drizzle outside the window, Qiu Tu stands in front of the window with his hands behind his back, speaking to the woman behind him.

The woman behind him is around five feet five inches tall, her body slender yet remarkably alluring. She not only has long legs and a wasp waist, but her full chest is like stalactites, heavy and substantial.

Her facial features are delicate and beautiful, her eyes holding the maturity of a young woman coupled with the exotic allure of an alien race.

Adding to this is her vine-like, grass-green hair, making her exceptionally eye-catching.

Clearly, she is the daughter-in-law of the Pavilion Master of 'Si Yuan Pavilion', who was appointed by the Northern God King to serve closely beside Qiu Tu: Man Huang.

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Man Huang lifts her head to look at him, her emerald green eyes filled with complexity.

These past two days, Qiu Tu can be said to be the most prominent and powerful figure in the 'Boundless Heart Sea'.

The reason is simple.

In yesterday's 'Divine King Incident', Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji joined forces with the Northern God King to eliminate the Eastern and Western Divine Kings, who had ruled the 'Boundless Heart Sea' for centuries.

This terrifying accomplishment in itself has already elevated Qiu Tu to a very high status.

But what's even more terrifying is.... according to emergency investigations and reconstructions by intelligence departments of various major forces, they were surprised to find that during yesterday's battle, the role played by Qiu Tu was not even inferior to Zhao Ji!

Actually, during this period, the combination of Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji had long entered the sight of the major powers.

Because the two are indeed strong, the major forces do regard this combination with extreme importance.

However.... while the major forces pay attention, their attitude towards Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji is completely different.

Compared to the dazzling Zhao Ji, Qiu Tu, the man behind Zhao Ji, was indeed too inconspicuous. In fact, most forces thought Qiu Tu was living off Zhao Ji.

Even though Qiu Tu ranked second in the 'Heavenly God Trial', most forces believed it was because Qiu Tu ruled over two regions and billions of humans.

The result of this investigation following the 'Divine King Incident' proved everyone wrong.

People were shocked to realize that Qiu Tu was actually very strong? Strong enough to play a role in God King Level battles!

Of course, not all forces believed this. Large forces like 'Day Pavilion', which had previous conflicts with Qiu Tu, doubted the results of this investigation.

The main method for such post-event investigations is measuring the proportion of Cataclysmic Power at the scene.

The higher the proportion of Cataclysmic Power stained with a Deity's aura, the greater the power that the Deity exerted during this battle. It also confirmed their contribution in the battle.

Qiu Tu's proportion of Cataclysmic Power at the scene is almost the same as Zhao Ji's, indicating his contribution in this battle is also similar to Zhao Ji's.

But 'Day Pavilion' believes.... Qiu Tu very likely used other means to make his proportion of Cataclysmic Power so high.

However, before they could verify their suspicions, they were metaphorically slapped in the face.

Because.... Doris stepped forward at this time.

After knowing the fall of the Eastern, Western, and Northern Divine Kings, Doris also publicly shared the truth of the chaotic battle among the four Heavenly Gods not long ago.

The Heavenly God-level clones of the Eastern, Western, and Northern Divine Kings all fell at the hands of Qiu Tu. And they were killed in a single strike.

This revelation directly stunned 'Day Pavilion', and also silenced the many forces of the Four Divine Kings.

Everyone then realized.... Qiu Tu was not the one hiding behind Zhao Ji, seeking shelter, but the one standing beside Zhao Ji, fighting shoulder to shoulder.

And now, with the fall of the three Divine Kings and the mysterious disappearance of the Southern God King, Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji stand at the pinnacle of this world. They are the true rulers of the 'Boundless Heart Sea' for the next decades, centuries, and perhaps even more.

Knowing this information, Man Huang faces Qiu Tu with feelings of great complexity.

On one hand, Qiu Tu is the enemy who has toyed with her, and on the other, Qiu Tu is the 'Master' appointed to her by the Northern God King.

And now..... the Northern God King is dead, Qiu Tu has become the most powerful person in this world, leaving her truly confused about her path forward.

Therefore, after listening to Qiu Tu's explanation, Man Huang was silent for a few seconds before softly asking, "So does the death of the Divine Kings mean the world is in trouble?"

Qiu Tu, still facing away from Man Huang, watching the raindrops as they patter on the window, replied calmly, "Yes and no."

"In the short term, the death of the Divine Kings will certainly have a significant impact on the 'Boundless Heart Sea'."

"Like now, the 'Northwestern Region' has become the place with the most concentrated Cataclysmic Power and the most chaotic climate as proof."

"But looking at a longer timeline.... the fall of the Divine Kings doesn't have too much impact on the entire world."

"After all.... compared to a vast world, the Divine Kings are indeed too tiny." 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Moreover...."

At this, Qiu Tu slowly turns around and says, "The Divine Kings haven't completely fallen."
