Actually, there was another important reason why Qiu Tu switched the target of the encirclement from the Whale Shark to Xie Yue.
The character of a creature affects its actions.
A naturally cautious creature and one with an arrogant, conceited personality will act completely differently when facing the same situation.
For example... Larilo. Because of her somewhat cautious nature and preference for keeping an ace up her sleeve, her "regional center" would not be carried on her person or hidden within her main body.
This was both to retain a sliver of hope for turning the tables in the face of danger,
and to preserve a lifeline for her in case an Evil God invaded and captured her.
Similarly with the Whale Shark, whose nature was to fear death and crave life, would 100% also have hidden his regional center.
But Qiu Tu was different. Although he was cautious, he had a strong desire for control.
Therefore, he would carry his regional center with him.
Following this line of thought...
The likelihood that Xie Yue kept the regional center that controlled his region on his person or hidden within his main body significantly increased.
At least, compared to the nearly impossible Whale Shark, there was a greater likelihood.
With this in mind, Qiu Tu also deactivated his "Order Space" ability, preparing to check the area.
However, as soon as he deactivated his powers, the next second, his body involuntarily shook, and a wave of dizziness hit him!
His Cataclysmic Power and spiritual power were almost instantly drained!
Luckily, the battle had not lasted long; otherwise, he reckoned even his vitality and lifespan might have been partly siphoned away.
After staggering a few steps, just as Qiu Tu was about to fall, a small figure suddenly appeared beside him, supporting and steadying him.
Qiu Tu straightened up, then couldn't help but look at the person beside him.
"Xiaowan...," he said, pausing before correcting himself, "Is that you... um, Director Rain Butterfly?"
In public, even if Qiu Tu and Qin Shuman were good friends, they still had to avoid any hint of impropriety.
That's why Qiu Tu would address Qin Shuman as "Director Rain Butterfly."
And at that moment, hearing Qiu Tu's words, Qin Shuman also spoke softly, saying, "It's me."
Perhaps because this was the most intimate person he had encountered since the traversal, Qiu Tu felt extremely reassured.
He quietly let Qin Shuman support him for a while before slowly saying, "Help me over there."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Qin Shuman softly hummed in acknowledgment.
Although her mind was filled with countless questions, what made this woman so endearing was her discernment and consideration.
In some ways, she was even more considerate than Tang Feifei.
Tang Feifei's simplicity came from her character, not asking or inquiring, which could make her seem overly aloof.
But Qin Shuman was not like that. She was like a versatile witch, capable of being both fervently passionate and gentle as water,
and at crucial moments, she was the most considerate and trustworthy companion.
Supporting Qiu Tu, they arrived at the center of the battlefield.
At this time, a third of the villas in the "City Hall Villa District" had collapsed and were destroyed.
Everywhere were broken walls and ruins.
Some valuable ornaments and decorations had all turned into fragments, mixed with the rubble and broken bricks.
The ten-meter journey took them a dozen seconds.
Reaching the center of the battlefield, where there used to be a villa, now only a large pit remained.
And lying in the pit, covered in wounds, was the childlike Xie Yue, with red eyes staring at the sky!
Inside, full of frustration, regret, and disbelief...
The sky seemed covered by a thick, dark velvet cloth, hiding the stars. Whether the recent shooting star or the twin moon phenomenon representing Xie Yue had disappeared without a trace.
Occasionally, lightning streaked through the clouds, tearing the oppressive darkness...
The booming thunder, accompanied by fine rain, fell upon the previously seemingly invincible Evil God, soaking Its corpse!
At this time, Tang Feifei and Liu Xiongyuan had reverted from their Giant State and Martial Spirit State, standing at the edge of the pit, looking at the corpse of their enemy.
"Damn it, this Evil God's strength is quite a bit stronger than Larilo's," Liu Xiongyuan cursed, baring his teeth.
He then covered his stomach where a large hole had been torn, his facial features contorting in pain.
And Tang Feifei was not much better off.
She had broken a leg, an arm, and her face was extremely pale.
But... compared to Liu Xiongyuan, she, who was born into a wealthy family, obviously paid more attention to her image.
So despite her severe injuries, she still maintained a cold composure, showing no sign of anything being amiss, as if the person with a broken arm and leg wasn't her.
Compared to the two of them, Cuiying Dragon Yiyi, who had been assisting and healing from the side, was in a much better state.
She hovered in the air, flapping her enormous wings, occasionally exhaling a green breath onto the two of them, helping heal their wounds.
Hearing approaching footsteps, the gazes of the two people and the dragon turned their way.
Upon seeing Qiu Tu approaching, they all relaxed their vigilance a bit.
As the nominal commander of the battle, Tang Feifei looked at Qiu Tu and then coldly instructed, "You take care of Xie Yue's body first."
"Then have someone cordon off this battle area."
"Evil Gods generally transform into 'Boundless Divine Crystals' 3-6 hours after death."
"And the blood they shed from injuries, as well as any body parts, will also turn into 'Boundless Divine Crystals'."
