Then let them offer their loyalty!

"Do they really think the New Territories are still their domain? They've lost all sense of decency."

A single, seemingly casual remark can bring down countless established families—that's the power Qiu Tu wields in the New Territories!

Although he is not currently the acting director, with Tang Feifei's support, his power in the Investigation Bureau is not much different from that of the acting director.

In addition, with control over the Political Department, the Operations Department, and the Public Security Department, as well as the ability to influence the special department of the Military Security Department, Qiu Tu was considered extremely powerful in the New Territories.

Shen Lingshuang had obviously seen her father's decisive and ruthless side before, so her expression didn't change at all. Instead, she adjusted her black-rimmed glasses and carefully wrote down Qiu Tu's words, preparing to report them to Guan Xiao the next day.

After seeing Shen Lingshuang finish doing all this, Qiu Tu walked over, picked up the girl, and placed her on his lap.

Then he asked, "How's it going? Have you found any clues on Longshan Road?"

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Shen Lingshuang replied earnestly, "Yes."

"After Minister Guan came over and investigated the intelligence, he also discovered a few unusual targets."

"But because we still have too little intelligence, we can't determine the identities of these targets yet."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu nodded. "No rush. I'll give you three or four more days to investigate this matter."

"As long as the investigation is completed within the time limit, it's fine."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Shen Ling Shuang nodded slightly and then saluted Qiu Tu, "Sir, I guarantee the mission will be completed successfully!"

Qiu Tu smiled and patted the girl's head, then said, "Let's continue analyzing the intelligence."

"Yes!"

On the night before advancing to the fourth-tier Cataclysm, Qiu Tu stayed up with Shen Ling Shuang analyzing intelligence until 1 a.m.

After analyzing all the intelligence, the two of them took a shower together and then went to sleep in each other's arms.

I wonder if they sensed Qiu Tu's heavy mood...

Shen Lingshuang, unusually, took the initiative to rub against Qiu Tu, and then voluntarily sounded Qiu Tu's divine horn.

After that, I reaped quite a few benefits...

.....

And so, the night passed without further incident.

The next day, Qiu Tu woke up feeling suffocated.

It wasn't that I was woken up by some organ that was suffocating, but rather by the false identity of the "Lord of the Region".

According to the information and data that Qiu Tu obtained from La Riluo and Tang Feifei.

After reaching Tier 3, Cataclysmics need to advance in two directions to improve further.

First, we will continue to develop the "Catastrophe Path" and continue to practice its guidance, forging ahead relentlessly.

That is, "Cultivating the True Body to the Fourth Stage".

The second method involves borrowing external forces, using catastrophic artifacts, catastrophic creatures, or even some magical powers to carry the power.

That is, "Pseudo-Level Four Cultivation".

The advantage of the former is that the power is harmoniously integrated, making it even stronger. The disadvantage is that the personality will be increasingly assimilated by the "catastrophe pathway," becoming more and more extreme.

The advantage of the latter is that it preserves one's true self and is not affected by the "catastrophic pathway".

The downside is that because the power is "externalized," it's not as smooth to use. And... because it's "externalized," it's also difficult to control.

It's like the pseudo-status of "Lord of the Region," because it draws power from the boundless sea of ​​the mind every moment.

Therefore, unless it reaches its limit and stops changing, Qiu Tu will find it difficult to suppress the growth of its power...

Two days ago, Qiu Tu's strength reached the peak of the third tier, and yesterday he almost reached the perfection of the third tier peak.

Right now, Qiu Tu's feelings are almost overflowing...

He even felt that his "soul" was undergoing a transformation, as if he was just one step away from breaking through to the fourth-tier Cataclysm!

But since it was daytime, he couldn't secretly go to Dongcheng City to advance in the Dongcheng region, so he could only use all his willpower to suppress the urge to advance...

And just like that, the day passed quickly.

In the evening, after getting off work.

Qiu Tu and Tang Feifei quietly made their way down to the Investigation Bureau's office building via the emergency exit on the 12th floor...

Tang Feifei had already arranged a vehicle for them.

The two got into the car and drove to a house in the New Territories.

There, they changed their clothes and their off-road vehicle, and the two set off directly for Dongcheng City.

Dongcheng is about a two-hour drive from the New Territories. However, the two did not go directly to the city center. Instead, after arriving in Dongcheng, they turned into a secluded grove of trees and stopped the car.

After getting out of the car, Qiu Tu looked around at his surroundings.

Perhaps because it was already winter, the trees in the forest were bare, all the leaves had fallen, and they were piled up on the ground in layers.

The shoes make a soft "squeak" sound when you step on them.

The bare trees, like javelins, pointed straight at the gray sky, and with the slightly cool weather, they seemed like the unwilling struggle of the defeated!

Turning his gaze away from the ominous woods, Qiu Tu looked at Tang Feifei beside him and asked, "Is this already the East City area?"

Tang Feifei reached out and took a jade pendant, pointed it at the SUV, and the next second, the SUV was absorbed into the jade pendant.

Then she nodded curtly and said affirmatively, "Yes."

"The dividing line marked on the file is here."

"And... I've been here on missions before."

The "Boundless Sea of ​​the Heart" is ever-changing. The area is not fixed, but fluid.

Two places that are connected in the real world may be thousands of miles apart in the "boundless sea of ​​the mind".

Therefore, to enter the East City area, you must first arrive at the corresponding location in the East City area in reality.

After receiving a positive answer from Tang Feifei, Qiu Tu nodded and said, "Then let's set off."

After he finished speaking, Qiu Tushen's dark eyes slowly turned into a clear, deep blue.

The scene around him began to blur, growing darker and darker. The trees and hills before him gradually faded into lines...

Immediately afterwards, he extended his right hand, palm up, and then suddenly flipped it over.

The next second, he felt as if the whole world had suddenly flipped upside down as if it were a flat plane!

As he arrived at the "Boundless Sea of ​​the Heart," those lines began to extend out from the darkness!

Some of them outline the shapes of sand dunes, some the shapes of depressions, and others depict small reptiles...

And so, the darkness gradually faded, and the next second, a wave of heat swept towards Qiu Tu!

An endless desert slowly appeared before Qiu Tu!

Although he had witnessed the magnificence of the "Boundless Ocean of the Heart - New Territories" before, Qiu Tu was still amazed by the wonder of the "Boundless Ocean of the Heart" when he saw a desert appear before him...

The next second, Tang Feifei appeared next to Qiu Tu.

Upon arriving in the area of ​​a fifth-tier Great Evil God, she became noticeably more vigilant.

She was like a female leopard, her muscles taut, her wheat-colored face filled with solemnity, and her sharp eyes surveying the surrounding scene.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu gently patted her arm and reassured her, "Don't worry. It's alright."

After saying that, he opened the "Gold-Obsessed Wallet" and took out the "Soul Shackle Altar" from which Lariro was imprisoned.

Qiu Tu's actions caught Tang Feifei's attention, so she couldn't help but look over.

When Tang Feifei saw that what Qiu Tu was holding was the "La Ri Luo" that everyone was looking for but couldn't find, her wheat-colored face was filled with surprise.

However, she was always reserved, so she opened her mouth but ultimately didn't ask.

At this moment, Qiu Tu didn't have time to explain for Tang Feifei. He gently shook the "Soul Shackles Altar" and then said with a smile, "Your Highness, look... where is this?"

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, La Riluo, who had been locked up in the "Gold-Loving Wallet" for some time and was so bored that she was almost tired of playing with it herself, couldn't help but look up and look around.

A moment later, she sat up abruptly and said in surprise, "This is... the area controlled by my sister?"

She closed her eyes, then carefully sensed it, and said with a look of surprise, "It really is my sister's aura! I can feel her power!"

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu exchanged a glance with Tang Feifei.

Then Qiu Tu said, "Your Highness... to tell you the truth, I'm about to advance to the fourth-tier Cataclysm."

"And I had nowhere else to go but to come to Princess Zehime's territory to seek refuge."

“I’m not sure if she left any traps or tricks to prevent others from entering her area.”

"But don't worry, I promise you... we'll live and die together."

"If I'm in danger, I definitely won't let you live!"

Lari Luo: ? ? ?

--------

Two chapters, 10,000 words each, please vote with monthly tickets!

Chapter 381 The Illusory Image of a Fourth-Order Law! (10,000 words, please vote!)

Larilu stared at Qiu Tu in disbelief.

I almost thought I misheard.

What a kind soul! They locked themselves in a catastrophic artifact that never saw the light of day for over ten days. And then, as soon as they were released, they demanded to be buried with them!

At that moment, Larilu's mind went blank.

Perhaps noticing La Riluo's shocked state, Qiu Tu glanced at Tang Feifei beside him and then said coaxingly, "Your Highness, I think you should be able to understand my thoughts."

"I love you so much. I want to take you with me wherever I go. If I die, I would love to have you by my side on the road to the underworld."

Lariluo paused for a moment, then looked at Qiu Tu suspiciously and asked, "Then... what if I die?"

Qiu Tu replied without hesitation, "Don't worry, I will definitely give you a grand funeral!"

Larilu: ......

She was truly enraged. She unleashed a torrent of profanities at Qiu Tu, including "you," "me," and "my mother."

Then he yelled at Qiu Tu, "So you just wanted to drag someone down with you, didn't you!"

"You dare say we'll live and die together! I'll just die with you then!"

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu said to La Riluo with a serious expression, "Your Highness, you must understand me. Everything I've done is for your own good."

"If you have already fallen, and I fall with you, then there will be no one in this world to mourn you."

"How lonely and miserable we are down there!"

"So, I will live well, and burn paper money and offer sacrifices for you during festivals. I will try my best to ensure that you will have no worries about food and clothing in the underworld for the next few hundred years!"

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, La Ri Luo: ......

"Thank you so much..."

La Riluo realized that Qiu Tu had little else to offer but plenty of fallacies.

Arguing with him is pointless. He actually understands everything; he's just using a joking way to tell me what to do next, and what the consequences will be if I don't...

After figuring this out, Lariro's intelligence regained its superiority.

She regained her devilish aura, her eyes slightly upturned, her blood-red lips gently bitten, and her slender, long fingers lightly twirling the lace on her skirt.

Then, her gaze swept over Qiu Tu, and she said softly, "Qiu Tu~~ Actually, there's no need for us to talk about life and death."

"How hurtful!"

She sat on the altar, looked around at the desolate desert, and said, "You just want to use my sister's place to advance, don't you?"

"Don't worry, I'm here. I definitely won't let you get infected."

Qiu Tu glanced at La Riluo's loyalty level: 29.

During this time, Qiu Tu continued to regularly increase La Ri Luo's loyalty in the "Loyalty Game" every day.

But... I wonder if she has learned Qiu Tu's true colors, or if she knows that her sister hasn't given up on her.
