Chapter 528: Princess Xi Regretted It (10,000 Words Asking for Monthly Tickets!)_3
Because, you have to know that her situation now is completely different from a few days ago.
Qiu Tu is considered someone who keeps his promises.
After the last meeting, Qiu Tu reported the matter of Princess Xi to Elder Tang as promised.
And Elder Tang personally made a secret call to Princess Xi that could not be monitored by Kou Yu.
Although Elder Tang did not explicitly say it over the phone, the meaning he conveyed was quite obvious.
——Eighth Sanctuary is now experiencing turbulent times.
They just expanded two Planning Areas and need to expand two more. With Evil God rampant and looking for opportunities, they truly have no strength left to meddle in the internal affairs of Sixth Sanctuary.
After being rejected by Elder Tang, Princess Xi lost her last lifeline.
She really had few options left and could only pin her hopes on Qiu Tu.
As a result, at this time, Qiu Tu's "value" skyrocketed, greatly enhancing his bargaining power in the entire matter.
'Regent King and Da Yu'er.....'
Reciting this slightly alluring combination in her mind, Princess Xi couldn't help but clench her hand....
Is she really going to use herself as a pawn? Fight for a future for her child?
For a moment, Princess Xi was a bit silent.....
Seeing Princess Xi silent, Ai Li and Yanyan exchanged a glance and could only stop talking, patiently waiting.
Thus, Princess Xi remained silent for a minute or two, before she seemingly made a decision.
She raised her head, her dignified and majestic face expressionless.
"Ai Li.... When you return tonight, please help me send a message to Qiu Tu."
"Send a message?" Ai Li asked curiously, hearing Princess Xi's words, "What message?"
Princess Xi contemplated for a moment, then said, "Just say.... I am somewhat interested in the story he told before."
"Would like to have the opportunity to hear him tell it again."
Hearing Princess Xi's words, Ai Li was puzzled.
Story? Tell it again?
Qiu Tu and Princess Xi have met? And told a story? What is this all about?
Comparing Ai Li's confusion, Yanyan seemed to have guessed something.
A fleeting expression of deep thought appeared on her pure and elegant face, then a little smile showed in her eyes.....
.....
With the moon setting and the sun rising, the night passed without words.
This night, many people were destined to be sleepless.
The next morning, Qiu Tu was awoken by the "knock knock knock" on the door.
He opened his eyes, looked at Shen Lingshuang drooling on him, gently picked up the little girl, and placed her to the side, covering her with a blanket.
Then he put on a robe and walked out of the bedroom.
Outside the bedroom door there was no one, but Qiu Tu already knew who it was.
So he stepped towards the study.
Indeed, as the study door closed, Zhu Huoyan slowly rose from his shadow.
Kneeling on one knee, Zhu Huoyan saluted Qiu Tu and greeted, "Master."
Qiu Tu casually responded, "Mm," and asked, "What's going on? Is Dai Yukang making some moves?"
How could Qiu Tu trust an Old Fox with a loyalty point of only 61 for such a big task as finding "Yaksha."
Thus, after assigning the mission to Dai Yukang last night, Qiu Tu arranged for a Third Order Shadow Soldier to follow him.
The purpose was to monitor Dai Yukang anytime without him knowing.
If Dai Yukang dared to make any moves: like hiding Yaksha, following Qiu Tu's path "controlling Evil Gods," aligning with Evil Gods.
Then.... Qiu Tu would directly strip Dai Yukang of power and take action against him.
So seeing Zhu Huoyan appear now, Qiu Tu's first reaction was naturally that Dai Yukang was indeed tempted.
But Zhu Huoyan hurriedly shook his head instead.
He said, "Master, it has nothing to do with Dai Yukang. Pei Jing is here...."
"Pei Jing?" Qiu Tu paused for a moment, almost forgetting who this was.
Fortunately, the thought processes of Fifth-Order Calamity Beings are indeed fast. So Qiu Tu quickly recalled.... this person's identity.
Supreme Council Reserve Member, "Academic Faction" quasi-high-ranking, Deputy Speaker of Beiyun State, a Senior Frontier Official holding tens of thousands of troops in Beiyun State.
And more importantly, he is currently the New State State Council Chairman, and Pang Haichen's closest and most important ally.
It's safe to say, with him around, Pang Haichen has confidence!
'Has this guy finally arrived after such a long journey?'
'If he's any slower, he might miss today's good show....'
