Facing Larilo, the Evil God, Qiu Tu always lacked confidence deep down.
After all, compared to tangible people, Larilo was like a ghost.
Qiu Tu didn’t know how to harm her, how to kill her, or even... where she was.

Qiu Tu only knew that she had used the female body cloned by Old Master Qin to come to the real world; he only knew that she could Enter Dream at night and could be contacted with ancient coins during the day.
But beyond that... he knew nothing.
’How exactly does the Sanctuary deal with an Evil God?’
’Facing such a pervasive enemy, how do the higher-ups of the Sanctuary prepare?’
Thinking quietly for a while, Qiu Tu suppressed the thick anxiety in his heart, then made several phone calls.
After everything was arranged, he returned to his room.
’No matter what, first make enough preparations, then play it by ear…’ Experience more tales on freewebnovel.com
’At least this time, I’m not completely in the dark about her.’
’Moreover, if she is a living being, she must have her own desires. So… maybe, I can apply the same methods I use against people to her?’
Back in the room, Shen Lingshuang was once again holding a large mallet, banging on the workbench.
Seeing this, Qiu Tu chuckled and shook his head, saying, "Stop banging. The neighbors are going to complain soon."
Upon hearing Qiu Tu’s words, Shen Lingshuang’s eyes widened, "Who dares to complain!?"
With one hand on her hip and the other hoisting the hammer, she warned with fierce cuteness, "If anyone dares to complain! I’ll, I’ll…!"
Qiu Tu asked, "You’ll do what?"
Shen Lingshuang squeezed out a cute smile and pulled out a handful of peanuts from her pocket, "I’ll invite them to eat peanuts~~ and ask them to be more understanding. Hehe."
"Hahaha." Qiu Tu was amused by Shen Lingshuang’s half-tough, half-timid demeanor.
He walked over, took the mallet from Shen Lingshuang’s hand, and said, "I’ve already asked a friend to help us find a new place to live."
"We should have one by tomorrow."
"Then, we can move to our new house tomorrow."
The emphasis in Qiu Tu’s statement was on "new house," but Shen Lingshuang was keyed into "us."
Thus, her eyes lit up slightly, "Our new house?!"
Qiu Tu replied, "Yes."
He explained, "Recently, I’ve made many enemies. Some might seek revenge."
"Plus, now that Old Alley Street has developed, too many people come and go, and it’s a mix of good and bad."
"So, we should move to a safer place to live."
Hearing Qiu Tu’s words, Shen Lingshuang nodded her head cutely, filled with longing, "In our new house, can I have my own bedroom?"
Qiu Tu heard her and shook his head, "That won’t be possible."
Shen Lingshuang’s head drooped immediately, a bit disappointed.
Seeing her like this, Qiu Tu said with a smile, "Because I can’t fall asleep at night now without holding you."
At Qiu Tu’s words, Shen Lingshuang’s face flushed red. Steam practically began to rise from her head.
Qiu Tu watched the girl blush, then added, "So, although you can’t have your own bedroom, you can decorate any other room in the house as you wish. You can also choose one to be your Alchemy Room or workshop."
Shen Lingshuang looked up, tilting her head, "Really, truly O.o?"
Seeing Qiu Tu nod, Shen Lingshuang excitedly jumped onto him, overjoyed, "Yay! Qiu Tu, you’re not that bad after all!"
Supporting Shen Lingshuang’s perky backside, and seeing her happy demeanor, Qiu Tu chuckled and shook his head: still such a kid, huh...
He wondered why her parents would let such a young, cute girl wander the Cataclysmic world alone…
...
Perhaps because they were moving to a new house tomorrow, Shen Lingshuang was exceptionally excited.
She stopped hammering and started packing her belongings instead.
The Cataclysmic Potions had to be taken; Cataclysmic Materials had to be taken; the workbench had to be taken; even some pots and pans, as well as rice, flour, oil, and salt, had to be taken.
Watching her pack and mutter about what else she might have forgotten, Qiu Tu sitting on the sofa was a bit speechless.
He said, "Anything you need can be bought once we get to the new place."
"That rice and flour aren’t expensive. They’re heavy to carry. There’s no need to take them."
Shen Lingshuang rolled her eyes at Qiu Tu, mumbling, "Such a rich young master, never managed a household."
"Those were bought with hard-earned Copper Yuan. How can we waste them?"
Qiu Tu suggested, "We could give them to the neighbors, then."
Shen Lingshuang paused, still shaking her head, and continued packing, "Better not. I picked these out meticulously, I can’t bear to part with them..."
Seeing Shen Lingshuang’s stingy behavior, Qiu Tu found it quite amusing.
This girl could not only help her neighbors make money but was also nit-picky when it came to buying and giving things away.
What kind of living environment had shaped such a girl?
Just like that, Shen Lingshuang continued to tidy up until late into the night before finally finishing, and then the two of them washed up a bit and went to bed.
Perhaps because she was a bit excited, Shen Lingshuang lay in Qiu Tu’s arms, chattering non-stop with her little mouth going "pah pah pah."
Unable to take it anymore, Qiu Tu covered her mouth and physically silenced her, at last putting a stop to her ceaseless desire to communicate.
In this manner, while blocking Shen Lingshuang’s mouth and gently patting her back, it took Qiu Tu a whole half-hour to finally put the girl to deep sleep.
And after Shen Lingshuang fell asleep, Qiu Tu got up, looked at her for a moment, and then headed to the neighboring room.
In the neighboring room, Sister Xin was already waiting. Also there were Ah-Tai, Eagle, and both Cao Dabiao and Chen Feng who had finished the celebration feast.
Entering the room, Qiu Tu said to Sister Xin, "Sister Xin, I’ll have to trouble you to take care of Ling Shuang tonight too."
Sister Xin said cheerfully, "No problem, no problem. Little sister Ling Shuang has been a big help to us lately; it’s only right that I take care of her."
After speaking, she gestured towards her bed and said, "I’ll go over there now, make yourself at home, feel free."
Qiu Tu nodded his head, watching Sister Xin leave his room for her own.
Seeing this, Ah-Tai scratched his head, saying naively, "Brother Tu, you’re being overly cautious."
"Even if United Front really planned to attack tonight, we’ll make sure Ling Shuang is safe."
"You should just focus on dealing with the Evil God."
Qiu Tu shook his head, "You don’t understand. There’s no cure for regret in this world."
"We’ll be moving tomorrow, so tonight is the only night something could possibly go wrong."
"Although it’s very unlikely that United Front knows about it, I don’t want to regret anything because of a slight oversight."
Having said that, Qiu Tu also turned to Ah-Tai and Eagle, "Besides, tell the brothers to be more cautious these days."
"Try to move in groups as much as possible, and don’t give United Front any openings."
Hearing Qiu Tu’s words, Ah-Tai and Eagle immediately became serious and nodded.
After arranging for Ah-Tai and Eagle to stand guard outside in the corridor, Qiu Tu lay down on Sister Xin’s bed, ready to sleep.
As for Cao Dabiao and Chen Feng, of course, they were staying by his side.
The two had once undergone special training with the Security Department; they knew how to pick up on Qiu Tu’s warnings in dreams and how to wake him.
Therefore, with Liu Fuping inconvenient to show up, having the two of them come over to stay the night was the best choice.
Thinking this, Qiu Tu gave a few more instructions to the two, and then lay down on the bed, falling into a deep sleep.....
He didn’t know how long he had slept, maybe ten minutes, maybe an hour....
Suddenly, Qiu Tu felt as though he was groggy.
A woman’s voice was gently calling in his ear, "Qiu Tu.... Qiu Tu...."
Hearing that familiar voice, Qiu Tu wanted to open his eyes, but found that he seemed unable to move.
His muddled mind couldn’t quite figure out what was happening.
He had a keen feeling something was wrong, yet he didn’t know what exactly it was....
And it was then.
That woman’s whisper came to his ears again, "Qiu Tu... what do you desire?"
Qiu Tu mumbled, "Desire what....?"
"I desire... power, money, women."
The woman chuckled lightly, "Such vulgar yet true desires."
"But that’s fine. I can give you everything you want."
Still in a daze, Qiu Tu seemed to retain a shred of reason, "Why would you give me everything I want?"
The woman replied, "Because... I am an omnipotent God."
"Just worship me, become my follower, and you can fulfill all your wishes."
"Power, money, women...."
"I can make you the dictator of the Sanctuary."
"Give you endless wealth."
"Select for you, train all the women that meet your heart’s desire...."
