Let them offer their loyalty!-Chapter 653 - 369_3

...
The next day, accompanied by the first ray of morning sunlight,
Qiu Tu slowly woke up from a deep sleep.
Conditioned to rub his eyes upon waking, he merely raised his hand only to feel a sore and aching sensation in his arms and back!
"Hiss!"
Qiu Tu sucked in a breath of cold air, then became fully alert amidst the soreness as he checked his arms, belatedly recalling yesterday’s achievements that lasted from dawn till night.
Thinking of his laborious efforts from the day before, and Tang Feifei, who was equally exerted to the brink of collapse, he silently lit a candle for his backbone...
Feeling like it was probably beyond recovery.
With that in thought, he shifted his thighs slightly, and the soreness shot straight to his head.
’Forget it, I’ll light another candle for Yue Kuaye too, probably a goner as well...’
Quietly lamenting the intensity of yesterday’s battles, Qiu Tu reflexively reached to his side, only to realize that he was alone, with just the faint scent of jasmine left behind.
Although he had long known that it was all just a transaction between them, Qiu Tu couldn’t help feeling a tinge of disappointment in that moment.
’Even if there’s no credit, there should be some acknowledgment of the hard work, right?’
’This is too much like flipping a face and failing to recognize someone!’
And just as he was thinking this, suddenly, the bedroom door opened. Barefoot, barelegged, and bare-bodied, Tang Feifei walked in carrying a bowl of medicine.
Her legs were long; her body, with curves that hinted at an endless explosive power and resilience.
With each step she carried an indescribable rhythm, like a leopard sprinting stealthily through the jungle, each move filled with strength and rhythm.
She came to Qiu Tu’s side, bent down to place the medicine, and said coolly, "Drink this. You worked hard last night."
Especially... ’If the Boundless Heart Sea Expansion Plan comes to fruition, the establishment of the Dongye State Council might be advanced again.
Then, he might soon face a direct threat from Huang Shangzong.
Thus, Qiu Tu had to elevate his position and strengthen his influence as much as possible before that happened,
Among the vice ministers of the Organizational Department, Zhen Lie belonged to the Iron-Blood Faction, Zhou Jingfu to the Reformist Faction, and Meng Sanzhai to the Fengtian Faction.
According to the intelligence provided by Yan Chen, apart from Meng Sanzhai, the other two shouldn’t have any connection with Qiu Tu.
Thinking thus, he couldn’t help but look towards Ouyang Heng sitting by his side, who was from the Free Democracy Faction—again, seemingly unrelated to Qiu Tu.
But why... all four of them supported Qiu Tu!
Moreover, among these four, it was Meng Sanzhai of the Fengtian Faction who was the most laid-back, merely showing support for Qiu Tu without much talk.
Truly befitting of an Evil God, his words always made others comfortable.
Beauty is a bone-scraping knife, but as everyone knows, we People of Zhejiang are born with tough bones.
Gripping the steering wheel tightly is what makes driving exciting, sis is a bit impatient though.
Mountains are the exceedingly slow waves of the geological eras.
Beauty, huh? Not sure, it’s just flowers blooming in their prime, and it’d seem like I lack appreciation for sentiment if I didn’t admire them.
Thinking this, after successfully boosting Larilo’s loyalty, Qiu Tu decided not to engage further with Larilo.

"In order to comply with the procedures, and to avoid any complications, we immediately apprehended Eagle after the Speaker officially took office."

After receiving Qiu Tu’s approval, Guan Xiao looked at him somewhat strangely, and then asked, "Chief... You don’t seem surprised by this intelligence at all?"
She asked doubtfully, "Don’t you find this information important?"
"Just... no encouragement? No praise?"
Hearing what Guan Xiao said, Qiu Tu laughed. He nodded and replied, "Section Chief Guan is right."
"The Intelligence Section has made significant contributions and indeed deserves a good commendation."
"Once this case is cracked and all these United Front Special Warfare Squad members have been neutralized, I will commend you to the higher-ups."
Hearing Qiu Tu’s words, Guan Xiao gave him a penetrating look with her seductive eyes, and then said, "Chief... I’m not sure if it’s just an illusion."
"I always feel... like you knew about the Alliance Special Forces Members before I did?"
Hearing Guan Xiao’s words, Qiu Tu casually leaned on the chair and responded with a light smile, "Oh?"
"That..."
"You might have guessed right."
Qiu Tu’s response made Guan Xiao widen her eyes slightly.
Having spent years in the intelligence system learning and working, Guan Xiao had developed an instinctual ability and habit to gather information and was particularly sensitive to emotional nuances.
So, when she finished reporting the intelligence on the Alliance Special Warfare Squad and Qiu Tu showed no sign of shock or urgency, she keenly detected something unusual.
However, although her intuition told her that Qiu Tu might also be aware of this intelligence, her rationality would not believe it.
After all, her intelligence was painstakingly passed on by spies at the risk of their lives.
How could Qiu Tu know?
Just then,
each bone, each blood vessel, each muscle and the fine spiritual power channels became increasingly distinct, like stars sprinkling the night sky, twinkling with dazzling light. These spiritual power channels not only boosted his physical strength but also enabled more efficient absorption and utilization of external spiritual power.
Nourished by spiritual power, his muscles became more resilient and powerful, as if containing the weight of mountains and the agility of rivers. Every movement Lin Yi made caused the air to tremble slightly, a minor manifestation of the power leaking from within him. Even more astonishing was that his bones seemed to be reforged during the ascension process, becoming denser and more robust, capable of withstanding greater Impact Forces.
Change of the Soul
Compared to his body, Lin Yi’s soul underwent an even more profound transformation. His will...
Phenomena of Nature
As Lin Yi’s advancement deepened, phenomena began to occur in the heavens and earth. The once calm sky suddenly churned with wind and cloud, darkened by dense storm clouds, as if something momentous was about to unfold. Thunder roared, lighting streaked across the sky, and each flash was accompanied by a massive surge of energy.
