Let them offer their loyalty!
Chapter 1130 - 526 Larilo: The three of us must be happy (Thanks to the Alliance Hierarch "Be a Muggle0723!")_2

At the same time, Zhao Ji, who was invisible on the side, quietly watched Qiu Tu flirting with her sister.

Her face showed no expression, and in her heart... there was no ripple.

However, she did feel a little uneasy.

In fact, even up until the last minute before taking action, Zhao Ji was very hesitant.

She is an extremely rational person who particularly enjoys planning.

Such a person, once they make a plan, will go to any lengths to complete it.

Therefore, trying to get such a person to change plans is extremely difficult.

This is also the reason why, even though Qiu Tu voluntarily offered the "Mountain Root" to Zhao Ji, she still did not change her plan.

Although she had a moment of hesitation in her heart, she still felt that Qiu Tu did not seem like a good person and should be killed.

So, she devised the plan: "Qiu Tu goes to lure the enemy, exhaust their strength, and she lurks on the side, waiting for an opportunity."

Having a certain understanding of sixth-level strength, she knew that as long as Yaksha made a move, Qiu Tu wouldn't have the slightest ability to fight back.

The result was that the plan encountered an unexpected situation—Yaksha did strike, but in order to lure her out, he didn't go all out and instead played cat and mouse, slowly tormenting Qiu Tu.

This led to the result where Zhao Ji silently watched Qiu Tu awkwardly dodge, sweating heavily in struggle, watched him get half his body blown up, yet still resolutely "execute the plan."

To be honest, at that moment, Zhao Ji was truly shaken.

She suddenly doubted whether she had really misunderstood Qiu Tu?

Though Qiu Tu was calculative, a bit insidious, crafty, flirtatious... but he actually seemed to be quite good to those around him?

First, he gave the "Mountain Root" to her. Now, even as he was barely holding on, he still executed his plan, struggling to support her.

You have to know... this is a battle beyond one's level, and any carelessness could lead to death.

So, at that time, Zhao Ji was already considering stepping in directly.

However, just as she was about to take action.

Suddenly, she recalled the incident where Qiu Tu calculated Larilo: Although he led Larilo to ruin, he made her feel grateful.

If you think about it carefully, it's exactly the same as her own situation.

She too could have smoothly advanced to the sixth level, but Qiu Tu thwarted her.

Then, Qiu Tu first brought out the "Mountain Root" to improve her impression. Next... now he intends to use the "stratagem of suffering" to win her favor?

As soon as this thought arose, Zhao Ji felt a shiver run down her spine.

Because if all this were true, Qiu Tu would be terrifyingly formidable.

The calculated steps, the grasp on human nature, far exceed those ordinary conspirators and politicians.

It was because of this conjecture that Zhao Ji withdrew her hand once more.

But it was also because of this "conjecture" that her heart no longer hesitated and she became resolute.

She knew that the biggest weakness of these insidious and cunning old foxes was... liking to keep a bottom card.

They like to plan everything, but... worry about the plan getting out of control, so they need to leave a few bottom cards as a contingency.

Now, with Qiu Tu fighting against Yaksha beyond his level to impress on her favorability, he's very likely holding a bottom card.

For instance... a means of escaping the battlefield in an instant!

And to avoid the situation spiraling out of control, and because they don't have that strong "eye power," these old foxes often leave a certain pre-emptive space.

Once they realize things are beyond them, they decisively withdraw.

So... Zhao Ji felt that the following matter became quite simple.

She just had to wait until the last second, until the moment before Yaksha genuinely attempted to kill Qiu Tu!

By then, if Qiu Tu didn't use the bottom card, it would mean he truly trusted her.

If Qiu Tu used the bottom card...

It would mean he truly was calculating her.

Then... sorry. Even if Yaksha didn't go after Qiu Tu, she would go after him.

In the end, developments indeed surprised her.

Up until the very last moment, when Yaksha was already attacking with full force, Qiu Tu did not run!

Thus, she forcibly acted to protect Qiu Tu, keeping him within her reach!

And when she made her move, worried about injuring Qiu Tu, she held his hand.

Unexpectedly, Larilo saw this and it led to a series of misunderstandings.

Already frustrated and agitated due to a "misjudgment," Zhao Ji naturally didn't want to deal with the two of them and directly became invisible to the side, quietly emptying her mind...

After sorting through her entire mental process, Zhao Ji's calm eyes involuntarily fell on Qiu Tu, who was chatting and laughing with Larilo...

Normally devoid of much expression, she rarely frowned.

'Men really are no good, they only slow down my moves....'

'Although I saved him. But... if needed, he still should be killed!'

Thinking this, Zhao Ji's eyes slowly turned golden yellow, filled with determination!

She is destined to reach the pinnacle of the world, how could she be indecisive over a man!

Zhao Ji made up her mind!

But... if Qiu Tu knew all of Zhao Ji's thoughts, he would absolutely beam with a bright smile.

Because... the most important first step to conquer a "Rational Planner" like Zhao Ji is to "occupy" her thought time.

For women of the "Rational Planner" type, whatever they do, they have their own plans and purposes.
