Chapter 977 - 475: The Speakers Shocked by Qiu Tu (10,000 Words for Monthly Ticket!)

"They too have weaknesses and can be exploited."

"Even... during the time Larilo was imprisoned, I obtained a great deal of intelligence from her."

"Among those, the most important piece of information is this: Evil Gods are not the united whole we imagine them to be. In reality... they are more inclined toward the law of the jungle prevalent in nature."

"They have their own conflicts, and they will fight and kill one another."

"Take the simplest example. Zhaohui killed nine Evil Gods in order to piece together nine regions and seized their territories."

"She alone possesses several pieces of the complete 'Boundless Divine Crystal'."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, the expressions of several Speakers revealed contemplative looks.

Even powerful individuals like Dai Yukang and Liu Xiongyuan had slightly changed their expressions, guessing what Qiu Tu was about to say.

As expected! After finishing the previous topics, Qiu Tu gesticulated with his hands and then said,

"So! After discovering that the Great Evil God Muye was plotting against the entire Dongye State, even making a Projection Descent into Eastern City, and we were unable to resist his power..."

"A bold idea was born in my heart."

"Can we 'control Evil Gods with Evil Gods'?!"

"Lure or devise plans to align some Evil Gods against others?"

"In this way, wouldn't we be able to make up for the shortcoming of the Eighth Sanctuary's lack of high-level combat power?"

"Moreover, this would also result in Evil Gods weakening each other, diminishing the power of the Evil God Camp."

Qiu Tu, holding a cigarette between his fingers and tapping it a few times, explained, "After all... as long as two Evil Gods come into conflict, regardless of who dies or gets injured, it makes little difference to the Human Camp and is only beneficial and harmless."

"At just the right moment, the Peak Fifth Rank Great Evil God Zhaohui appeared."

"So, struck by inspiration, I targeted Zhaohui."

"Thus... with my careful planning, I joined forces with Zhaohui to penetrate deep into the Cataclysm Zone, into Muye's lair, and engaged in a decisive battle with Muye."

"Of course, Muye wasn't a pushover; he called two Fifth Order Evil Gods for assistance."

"Luckily, our side was not weak either. Through the efforts of Zhaohui and I, we successfully killed two Evil Gods and captured one alive."

After listening to Qiu Tu's words, the meeting room fell silent.

Everyone rapidly digested Qiu Tu's speech.

And analyzed the information within.

As a result, the more they analyzed, the more they felt that something was not quite right.

Politically astute individuals like Liu Xiongyuan and Dai Yukang were directly surprised, looking up and catching each other's eyes, both seeing disbelief in the other's gaze.

The reason for their surprise was not because of anything else, but because... Qiu Tu's seeming explanations of his actions.

But actually... he was declaring a new 'political stance,' walking an entirely new path that no one had trodden before!

Qiu Tu's series of explanations, in fact, were about his own 'political line.'

This was an extremely bold approach.

Because... a new political line could very well signify the rise of a new Faction.

And... even if the political line were too narrow to give birth to a new Faction, one must understand that to become part of the Sanctuary's higher echelons, to be a Member of the Supreme Sanctuary Council, one generally requires having one's own 'political stance.'

Qiu Tu is only the Deputy Speaker now, yet he already has his own 'political line' and 'political stance.'

Though his approach is shockingly unconventional and difficult to execute, regardless, Qiu Tu indeed has begun to form his own 'ideological outline.'

This indicates that Qiu Tu's future path to becoming Speaker of the Supreme Sanctuary Council, or a Member of Parliament, has become much smoother.

Considering this, several other Deputy Speakers couldn't help but look towards Huang Shangzong, wanting to see what Huang Shangzong thought.

At this moment, Huang Shangzong's brows were deeply furrowed, his expression solemn.

Having heard Qiu Tu's thoughts, Huang Shangzong felt an even stronger desire for destruction.

His eyes reddened as he said in a deep voice, "Speaker Qiu, I have no comment on your ideas."

"But this approach of acting first and reporting later is a bit hard for me to accept."

"I think such an operation should be a violation of the rules."

Huang Shangzong swore, his emotions were a bit off at the moment, but... this time, he was truly not targeting Qiu Tu. He was simply addressing the issue itself.

Without going into the details, just considering the precedent Qiu Tu's act of preemptive action would set:

Other mid and high-level officials could just as well collude with Evil Gods first, transfer benefits or make deals with Evil Gods. If not discovered, no harm done; if caught, they'd just staunchly claim they were intending to turn the Evil Gods.

Under such circumstances, how could one possibly continue to investigate? Who could bear witness?

Because Huang Shangzong's doubts are not without reason, Qiu Tu placed the dodecahedral crystal on the table, and then slowly began to speak, "Speaker's criticism is valid."

"But... my actions were authorized by the Sanctuary and not just a case of acting first and reporting later."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Huang Shangzong's eyes became even more fierce as he asked, "Who?"

Huang Shangzong's words had just fallen when suddenly there came a vibrant voice of an old man from outside the door, "Me!"

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Tang Feifei froze for a moment, then stood up and looked towards the door.

Huang Shangzong was also familiar with this person's voice, so upon hearing it, he hastily stood up as well.

The other several Deputy Speakers, though they had not heard this voice before, noticed both Huang Shangzong and Tang Feifei standing up, and realized that the newcomer must be of high status, so they quickly stood up as well.
