Then, Let Them Offer Their Loyalty!

After all, normally when all Cataclysmics advance to Fourth Order, they seek support from their own factions, their friends, and those they trust to protect themselves.

Moreover, they would definitely place themselves in an absolutely safe location.

Even if, like Yan Chen, they were forced into a corner and compelled to advance, they would arrange layers of troops for protection and summon friends to guard the way.

This was why Tang Feifei was worried when she knew Qiu Tu was planning to secretly advance to Fourth Order.

As a result... Did Qiu Tu actually decide to do the opposite?

Not inviting friends, nor seeking the support of his faction. He wasn't even in a safe place. Instead, he went to the most dangerous place!

The territory of the Fifth Order Great Evil God, Zhao Ji!

Even though Tang Feifei always felt confident in her power and sometimes recklessly wanted to challenge Zhao Ji...

But... that was just wishful thinking.

Without complete preparation, she would not dare to step into Zhao Ji's territory.

After all, nobody knew what kind of trap formation Zhao Ji might have set in her territory before she left.

Nor did anyone know how many measures Zhao Ji might have left in her territory!

Moreover... keep in mind, Evil Gods are just higher-ranked Cataclysmic Creatures after all.

They are extremely sensitive to any unusual essences in their territories.

Even if one could bypass all Zhao Ji's traps, formations, and measures, but left behind an essence that Zhao Ji, upon returning, discovered, it would be very troublesome.

It was for these reasons that other Evil Gods and Cataclysmics were unwilling to enter Zhao Ji's territory.

Now... was Qiu Tu actually planning to enter Zhao Ji's territory?

Honestly, at that moment, Tang Feifei wasn't sure whether Qiu Tu was being cautious or reckless...

Right then, Tang Feifei's eyes inadvertently fell on the Boundless Divine Crystal that was part of a heart, lying on Qiu Tu's table...

Following that, Tang Feifei recalled the pile of Boundless Divine Crystals that Qiu Tu had given her.

She quietly weighed it in her mind.

If she hadn't estimated wrong... the total of these Divine Crystals combined was about half the size of a human body.

These were fresh Divine Crystals from a Peak Fourth Rank Evil God!

Truly priceless!

And Qiu Tu got his hands on them?

Although unclear about what relationship exactly Qiu Tu had with Zhao Ji, Tang Feifei knew it must be something extraordinary.

And thinking about Qiu Tu's previous strategic methods, Tang Feifei sighed silently in her heart...

'Fine. Let's just go with his plan...'

'If things really go south, I'll risk my life to take him away and then get my grandfather to save him.'

At this time, Qiu Tu was unaware of Tang Feifei's inner thoughts.

If he had known, he would surely have explained a bit more: he also didn't know what traps or measures Zhao Ji had laid down.

But... remember, he still held two trump cards in his hand...

He might not know, but would his blood sister Larilo not know?

Even if Larilo, his blood sister, didn't know... could 'Crisis Intuition' not detect it?

Larilo and 'Crisis Intuition' were key to why he dared to venture into the territory of a Fifth Order Great Evil God to advance!

Thinking this, Qiu Tu discussed the plan and strategy with Tang Feifei again. They decided to endure one more night, push his Peak Third Rank to the limit, and then proceed together the next night for advancement!

After discussing the plans, Qiu Tu did not stay overnight at Tang Feifei's house as he usually would.

Instead, he braved the night, got into his car, and drove back to the villa he shared with Shen Lingshuang.

Before advancing, he still needed to understand and arrange some things.

Upon reaching the villa and stopping the car,

Qiu Tu stepped toward the villa.

Just as he reached the villa's door,

it might have been an illusion, but suddenly, his Spiritual Perception felt like someone was spying on him.

He reflexively looked back, but saw nothing...

Behind him was the beautifully maintained Longshan Road and its bushes.

Since it was winter, the weather was becoming increasingly harsh, and the cold light spilled on the road, seemingly adding an extra chill to the night.

Qiu Tu scanned behind a few times, and once he was sure he hadn't noticed any issues, he shook his head, then came to his senses and walked into the villa...

Just as he entered the villa, Qiu Tu sensed a white shadow flash by!

Now, with 'False Frame', Qiu Tu was already a Peak Third Rank Cataclysmic.

Thus, with a simple grab, he caught Xiao Bai who was attempting a sneak attack on him!

Holding Xiao Bai's soft belly, Qiu Tu chuckled and said, "Xiao Bai, your speed is a bit slow."

"With your speed, you might never manage to bite me in this lifetime."

Hearing Qiu Tu's "taunt," Xiao Bai glared at Qiu Tu, barking "woof woof woof."

Though he didn't understand what was being said, Qiu Tu read her expression and felt she probably cussed quite rudely.

But Qiu Tu didn't mind; he laughed and said, "Xiao Bai, you must be quite bored when Ling Shuang's at work."

"How about I bring a friend over to see you someday?"

Right then, before Xiao Bai could respond, Shen Lingshuang, who was in the dining room, spoke first.

This girl, having worked for over a dozen days, had clearly matured a lot. She was wearing black-framed glasses, holding a pen, and was carefully reading some intelligence.

Hearing the "conversation" between the two, she curiously raised her head, adjusted her glasses on the bridge of her nose, and asked, "What friend? A friend for Xiao Bai?"

Hearing this, Qiu Tu smiled, put down Xiao Bai, and then said, "Yes."

"Actually... I've also kept a pet recently. Very cute, very beautiful, and very obedient."
