Chapter 1759: Chapter 716: How Does She Have So Many Heavenly God Skills?
Upon hearing Candle Dance’s words, the expressions on the faces of the women present varied.
Qing Lan looked completely unconcerned. She had a very accurate sense of her own position: an ordinary employee.
Well... at most, an ordinary employee who had a pretty good relationship with the boss.
So, as long as she completed the tasks given by Qiu Tu, earning her pay was enough.
Meanwhile, Doris’s face showed a hint of contemplation.
Her self-positioning was as Qiu Tu’s virtuous helper. Her rival was Zhao Ji, the former Legendary Heavenly God.
Of course, she couldn’t compare to Zhao Ji’s talent and power, so providing more additional help became her necessary choice for "promotion."
Thus, she hesitantly spoke, "You don’t have to worry about aura and communication. I have a ’Special Treasure’ that can be used to isolate the combat aura."
"It can ensure that the aura of the battle won’t be leaked."
After saying this, she cast her enchanting peach blossom eyes towards Qiu Tu, "But... when the Divine King comes later, I will..."
She didn’t finish her sentence, but the meaning was obvious: She had no way to deal with the Divine King.
At this point, before she could finish, Zhao Ji interjected, "The Divine King can be left to me."
Doris couldn’t help but turn to look at Zhao Ji.
Zhao Ji maintained her cool demeanor as if nothing in the world could shake her emotions.
Her eyes were deep, filled with boundless confidence, "One week. As long as we can keep it hidden for one week. I can guarantee the execution of that first-level Divine King."
Upon hearing Zhao Ji’s words, the women present were a bit surprised.
Although the fact that Zhao Ji’s past life as a Legendary Heavenly God was already exposed, everyone knew her talent and combat power were extremely high.
But... no one thought it would be this high!
To note, Zhao Ji had just ascended to Heavenly God status a week ago.
And within half a month, she could match the Divine King in combat, and even defeat him?
This was too exaggerated.
Listening to Zhao Ji’s words, Doris couldn’t help but clench her hands tightly.
She felt overshadowed.
However, at this moment, Qiu Tu spoke up.
Qiu Tu glanced at Zhao Ji calmly and then said, "Sister Zhao Ji, one week’s time is too short."
"I don’t want your fulfillment of talent and potential to be influenced by short-term profits."
Qing Lan, Candle Dance, and Doris held their breath.
’Able to execute the Divine King, yet it is considered short-term profit affecting the fulfillment of talent and potential?’
Qiu Tu continued, "Moreover... I already have a draft plan on how to deal with Yao Qin."
"Rest assured. Yao Qin won’t discover her husband’s disappearance."
Having finished speaking, Qiu Tu paused and then said, "But the only issue is... please help me keep Tang Lang alive."
"My plan requires him to be alive."
The collaboration with Qiu Tu over this period had made Zhao Ji trust Qiu Tu greatly.
Thus, since Qiu Tu said it wasn’t needed, she slightly nodded and softly said, "Alright. I’ll follow your arrangement."
Seeing Qiu Tu reject Zhao Ji, the women were a bit curious and looked towards Qiu Tu.
But Qiu Tu did not explain and instead started detailed combat planning.
Seeing Qiu Tu act this way, the women also understood that this likely involved Qiu Tu’s core secrets. So, they didn’t continue to ask.
However, they couldn’t help but remain curious about how Qiu Tu would handle Yao Qin after capturing Tang Lang...
And so, soon, the discussion of the battle plan ended. Everyone spread out and began to encircle Tang Lang according to the plan. A large net finally slowly unfolded...
.....
At the same time.
In the Southern Kingdom, in the wilderness.
Tang Lang was strolling around.
As a Peak Heavenly God, even though he depended a lot on his wife, Tang Lang himself was quite capable.
After all, Heavenly Gods, especially Peak Heavenly Gods, are not like cabbages. Every peak is a figure on the apex among billions of living beings. No matter the talent, heart, or Qi Yun, they are one of a kind.
So, even though Qiu Tu and the others covered it well and didn’t show any trace. But..... Tang Lang just had a subtle feeling that something was not quite right.
He had the feeling that everything was too smooth.
He remembered the West God King Heavenly Fury describing the situation of "Boundless Heart Sea" and said that Qiu Tu is someone who plans meticulously, calculating every step.
How could he walk so many steps and Qiu Tu fail to calculate even one step? This was simply unreasonable.
After all.... Qiu Tu couldn’t possibly not know that he and Yao Qin had come to the "Boundless Heart Sea"—his tracks had been followed for several hours.
This gave birth to a conjecture in Tang Lang’s mind: Qiu Tu was likely plotting something in secret, planning to capture him and Yao Qin all at once.
However..... Tang Lang was still quite confident in his strength. Although not a war general-type Heavenly God, his realm was there.
Peak Heavenly God. The strongest among Heavenly Gods.
And what about Qiu Tu’s side? Just some basic Heavenly Gods. Three small realms apart from him.
Even if he wasn’t adept at combat, it’s not possible for such ordinary basic Heavenly Gods to take him down.
As for Zhao Ji... more precisely, the former Xi Yue.
Tang Lang indeed had some apprehensions.
After all, he was a witness to past events. He had seen Zhao Ji oppressively fighting against the "Star Casting God King."
But hundreds of years had passed, and everything had changed. Zhao Ji’s talent was no longer as strong as before.
Moreover, the Zhao Ji of those days was a Peak Heavenly God, thus possessed such power. The current Zhao Ji was merely a basic Heavenly God, her strength greatly diminished.
As the saying goes, power cannot disappear into thin air, nor can it appear out of nowhere.
