"After all, the only Evil God who has fallen recently is Xie Yue."
"The Domain Master should still stay in their own region, where their strength can be fully utilized. So... How about I transfer you to Bright Moon City?"
Elder Tang had made himself so clear that Qiu Tu couldn't keep hiding any longer. So, lowering his head, he said, "Elder, you're formidable. I didn't expect you to see through all my little schemes."
Seeing that Qiu Tu was no longer pretending, Elder Tang's expression softened.
He brought back the earlier topic and said, "You're a Fourth-order Catastrophe-evolver and the Domain Master."
"Additionally, both your capabilities and strength are considerable."
"As the Deputy Speaker of the Sanctuary, giving you a little support shouldn't be a problem, right?"
"Publicly, if you can actually lead Dongye State, or even guide the Sanctuary to carve out a new situation, then I would have found a strong pillar for the future of the Sanctuary."
"Privately... You and Feifei have mutual affection, so it's very likely we will become one family."
"Step back ten thousand steps... even if you and Feifei don't end up together, there's still some kinship."
"When our Tang family or the 'Fengtian Faction' fall on hard times one day, you would be able to lend a helping hand."
"So... It's just a New Year's Eve dinner, just paving a way for you. Don't be too sensitive."
Elder Tang's words actually didn't at all match his position as the second-highest figure in the Sanctuary and were even... excessively frank and straightforward.
This was very rare in politics.
But the more this was so, the more Qiu Tu knew that Elder Tang was advising him.
So his mind cleared of any other little schemes, and he bowed deeply, "Elder, I've learned my lesson."
Elder Tang "Hmm"ed, then looking towards the crimson sunrise on the horizon, commented, "Whether it's the Sanctuary or Dongye State, there are some people who don't like you much."
"They think you are too calculating."
"Some of your actions are too complete, too extreme."
"But... they ignore your background and origins."
"You were born at the bottom. If you don't struggle fiercely, how could you possibly make a stand in this world."
"But... it's not your fault. It's the fault of this world. In these chaotic times, without that breath of air, you probably wouldn't have survived till now."
"However..." Elder Tang's tone changed as he said, "The higher you go, the more upright you must be in your actions. Use open strategies more and cunning plots less, and cultivate your heart."
"Also, pay attention to your relationship with your superiors."
Saying this, Elder Tang paused, then measured his words, "Huang Shangzong indeed has some minor issues, but overall, he isn't bad."
"Although he constantly causes headaches with his judgment of people... whether it's military or economy, he's competent."
"Moreover, he's very strong, able to suppress the border conflicts."
"Sending him down to Dongye State was also considered a refining test for him. I just didn't expect much of his energy to be drawn by you."
"On the way here, I also criticized him. Going forward, he will focus on the state."
"Moreover... he has a plan to expand the Disaster Zone, which is likely to pass. You should keep an eye on it later, see if there's any plan, to accumulate experience and merit."
Although what Elder Tang said seemed erratic, as if wandering beyond the clouds, upon careful reflection, one would find that everything was interconnected.
"You push Feifei to the forefront, let her become"
At that moment Fang Tangtang, blushing, covered her face, then undid her waist tie.
Next second, as the bathrobe slid down, what appeared before Qiu Tu was a body as immaculate as white jade, delicately sculpted.
Qiu Tu admitted, that moment, it felt like his heart skipped a beat.
But after all, he was a decent person. Plus, he had to read this philosophical tome tonight!
So, he looked down at the "Existence" in his hands, once, twice... then carried on reading!
'Fuck "Existence", the meaning of 'Existence' lies in Cao currency!'
While thinking such extremely crude, philosophy-insulting thoughts, Qiu Tu jumped out of bed and, amidst Fang Tangtang's screams, scooped her up and pressed her down onto the bed....
Blue Moon blushed, pulling over dark clouds to cover its face.
That night, Qiu Tu and Fang Tangtang struggled passionately until midnight.
Fang Tangtang seemed genuinely to have cast herself in the girlfriend role, even though Qiu Tu noticed her furrowing her brows a few times, yesterday's "injury" obviously not fully healed, yet she still earnestly swayed her body in sync with Qiu Tu's....
And Qiu Tu once again realized how soft, how comfortable a facial cleanser for normal to close-skin types could be....
'Facial cleanser really is best kept for oneself!'
With this thought, Qiu Tu imparted all he knew to Fang Tangtang, helping her absorb and resolve doubts....
After all, as a deputy head of the Political Department, he inherently had a certain quota for executions.
She couldn't quite understand that feeling.
But just felt extraordinarily comfortable...
However, at that moment Qiu Tu didn't give her much time to think.
He pinned Tang Feifei to the ground, yanked off her bath towel, and descended upon her!
This time, Tang Feifei experienced a sensation she and Liu Fuping had never felt before...
That distinctly different pleasure made her several times want to use her shoulder to press against Qiu Tu's Yue Chi's Mouth, aiming to interrupt momentarily.
But Qiu Tu held her from the front with one hand, pressed her shoulder with the other, making her like a fish out of water, unable to turn around.
The domineering attitude left Tang Feifei simply unable to resist.
