As an Evil God, especially a Great Evil God with vast experience,
the long years had exposed Zhao Ji to too many bizarre occurrences.
Therefore, she initially believed that her emotions could not possibly be affected by an ordinary human.
After all, in her eyes, the human before her was not honest, always seeming to have ulterior motives, with hardly any truth in his words.
She only needed to listen casually.
However, when she heard the explosive topic that the human before her had brought up, she was still startled.
She had an affair with… this weak human, as insignificant as an ant?
How… dare he fabricate such a lie?
Was he truly not afraid that she would slap him to death?
Thinking this, Zhao Ji's already icy gaze grew even colder.
She took a deep look at Qiu Tu. Just one look made Qiu Tu feel as though his blood had frozen, slowing to an excruciating crawl.
And his body became incredibly stiff, every joint as if rusted, moving them was extremely difficult...
Upon seeing Zhao Ji getting angry, Qiu Tu quickly cried out, "Sister Yueyue, calm your anger! It wasn't me, it was Her Highness Larilo who said it!"
"Hehe…" Zhao Ji responded to Qiu Tu's defense with a cold laugh.
Then, at that moment, Qiu Tu strenuously raised his right hand and swore, "If Her Highness Larilo didn't call me brother-in-law, if she didn't suspect that I had an affair with Her Highness Zhao Ji, may thunder strike me!"
It was still the same... In a world where the mind could affect the real world, an oath from the Cataclysmics held power.
Thus, unless it was the truth, or at least what one believed to be the truth, one would not dare to make such an oath.
Hence, seeing that Qiu Tu really dared to swear, and his oath was so precise and clear,
Zhao Ji, hidden in darkness, hesitated for a moment and then stopped freezing Qiu Tu.
Feeling the chill receding from his body, Qiu Tu breathed a sigh of relief.
He rubbed his hands and stomped his feet, easing his body that had almost been frozen stiff.
Just then, Zhao Ji slowly asked, "Why does she suspect?"
Zhao Ji's voice was like a clear, resonant spring in the forest, crisp and captivating.
Qiu Tu, daring to start this topic, surely had a well-thought-out strategy for responding. Thus he explained nonchalantly,
"Because… it was after seeing you that I found Her Highness Larilo."
"At that time, my body must have been infused with your aura."
"But… I didn't know."
"Also, I knew there was some conflict and misunderstanding between you and the Princess. So… when the Princess inquired about it, I lied."
"This made the Princess suspicious of me for the first time."
"Later… to help the Princess return to the Boundless Heart Sea, I secretly used the Summoning Coin you gave me last time to contact Colonel Wu from the Lianzhen Special Combat Team."
"Again… the Princess discovered this and became suspicious again."
Saying this, Qiu Tu's acting skills exploded, portraying a pitiful, distressed man perfectly.
He said, "Maybe… the Princess fell and now has a sense of insecurity."
"Since then, she has always been suspicious."
"So, when I realized she was already suspicious of us, I took the initiative to tell her the truth about everything."
"But... by then, she no longer believed me."
"And because of that, when the situation in Xinjie City drastically changed, and we needed your help, she didn't want to come to see you and asked me to come alone."
"And before I left, she repeatedly warned me not to tell you her whereabouts."
"Otherwise, she would run away from home, making it impossible for you and me to find her again."
Zhao Ji in the darkness:...
Honestly, although Qiu Tu's story was bizarre, it matcheds well with Larilo's capricious and willful personality.
So Zhao Ji did not question him but instead paused for a few seconds and then slowly asked, "What trouble have you encountered?"
Hearing Zhao Ji's question, Qiu Tu finally began to discuss the purpose of his visit.
He said, "Sister Yueyue, it's the Evil Gods! At least two Evil Gods have invaded Xinjie City!"
"One of the Evil Gods exhibits the vision of a whale tail, and the other one exhibits twin moons."
"They lurk in the darkness, and both I and Her Highness Larilo dare not venture towards the Boundless Heart Sea, we even dare not move around much…"
"Whale and twin moons…hehe…"
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhao Ji, concealed in the darkness, chuckled lightly and then waved her hand gently.
In the next second, a piece of green crystal representing half of a body with exposed flesh and a connected right arm appeared at Qiu Tu's feet…
The half-body was exquisitely detailed, as if it were still alive, exuding whispers of High Order pressure.
Although the pressure was somewhat weak because the owner of the body had died, Qiu Tu could still easily sense the rank of the former being from the tremors of his own soul...
Fourth Order, and most likely at the Peak Fourth Rank!
So... Is this a "Boundless Divine Crystal"?!
The Boundless Divine Crystal, one of the most precious and highest ranked Cataclysmic Materials, is formed by the pure, high-rank Cataclysmic Power that materializes upon the death of an Evil God.
It has multiple uses.
Moreover, this type of "Boundless Divine Crystal" isn't determined by how big the body is but rather condenses and refines rapidly after the death of the Evil God.
