Then, Let Them Offer Their Loyalty!

Chapter 1736 - 709: Qiu Tu: My Will Is the Law

The force was domineering, making it impossible for anyone to muster the will to resist, and it forcibly pinned them all into their chairs.

They wanted to stand up, but they found themselves utterly incapable of doing so!

They seemed to be restricted by "Rules", unable to leave the chair and the ground—they were firmly nailed to the spot.

Moreover! This wasn't an isolated case!

When they looked at those around them, they found others were clearly struggling too, but just like them, unable to move a fraction!

'Mad. Truly mad.'

'Qiu Tu is truly mad!'

Along with this thought, the entire banquet hall resembled Hell, with all the leaders bearing extremely unpleasant expressions.

Some bold ones wanted to open their mouths to curse Qiu Tu or to unite everyone to flee, but they found.... Qiu Tu's command to "shut up" was literally a "shut up".

They could make no sound, nor could they send messages. Everyone present was muted.

Qiu Tu not only controlled their bodies, but also sealed their ability to speak.

They were like lambs awaiting slaughter, firmly nailed in place, awaiting Qiu Tu's massacre.

With this thought, clad in a black uniform, expressionless, sitting at the main seat, Qiu Tu began roll call once again.

His fingers moved like the scythe of death. The Western Kingdom, the Eastern Kingdom, the Northern Kingdom, and even the corner Southern Kingdom.

From each table, someone from the forces was called upon, then sent to meet the three Divine Kings.

Regardless of whether they were at Eighth Rank Mid-level or Eighth Rank Peak, not a single Great Evil God could last a move under his hand.

Every Great Evil God called to name was slain after his casual words, "Go accompany the Divine Kings."

Moreover, during this, Qiu Tu could firmly suppress the several dozens of Great Evil Gods in the rest of the banquet hall.

This kind of hard power that leaves one with no ability to resist for the first time made the leaders of these forces understand the gap between Qiu Tu and ordinary Heavenly Gods.

They reminisced and felt even the four Divine Kings could not kill them with such ease as Qiu Tu does, akin to slaughtering dogs.

'Is this the terrifying power of a peerless prodigy ascending to become a Heavenly God?'

Some older Evil Gods who survived the "Heavenly God Cataclysm," seeing Qiu Tu's oppressive display, were vaguely reminded of the past Zhao Ji.

Back in the day, Zhao Ji was the same, faced with countless Evil Gods and Heavenly Gods' provocations, responding with but one word: kill.

Kill until they were shaken with fear, kill until there were no opponents, kill until they submitted both heart and soul.

It was precisely through her blood-stained hands that Zhao Ji could become the foremost of her era.

However, similar to Qiu Tu was this. Qiu Tu was seeking "Order" through the "Chaos" of slaughter.

While Zhao Ji sought it through the "Life" path in her mad butchery.

Killing one leader leaves other leaders astonished; killing two leaders leaves others sorrowful; killing three leaders ignites resistance among others.....

Yet suppressing the whole scene, and successively executing a dozen or so leaders, made those still surviving gradually become numb, despondent, and prayerful....

Qiu Tu keenly captured this shift in emotion.

So after picking off all leaders from the four Divine Countries with Loyalty below 25, suspected spies and disloyal ones, he slowly ceased his actions.

He scanned the surviving leaders present, then slowly opened his mouth, "Who agrees now? Who opposes?"

With these words, the leaders suddenly felt they could speak and could move.

Following this, a first clever person appeared. That leader hurriedly raised his hand, looking earnest and solemn as he said, "I agree."

This action and expression seemed infectious, very quickly, all the leaders present rushed to raise their hands, expressing loyalty, "I agree." "I agree." "Agree."

Of course, though they were saying they agree, Qiu Tu could clearly see their Loyalty not only did not improve, it even fell.

Yet all this had been within Qiu Tu's plan.

Seeing that he had coerced all the forces' leaders into agreeing with his domineering declaration, Qiu Tu spoke again.

He scanned everyone present, then slowly said, "Those I killed just now were all who harbored double hearts towards me."

"Though they came to congratulate me, privately they had their own plans. Even contemplating betraying us at any moment."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, the leaders present were taken aback.

Honestly, after Qiu Tu's thunderous methods, everyone knew Qiu Tu alone could wipe them all out.

Compared to Qiu Tu, they were nothing more than somewhat larger ants.

When someone is powerful to such a degree, there's truly no need to explain one's actions.

And once explained.... then it's likely true.

Thinking so, the leaders present couldn't help but recall the dozen or so people Qiu Tu had killed.

Before Qiu Tu pointed them out, they hadn't perceived anything odd. But after Qiu Tu pointed them out, they immediately felt those killed did seem somewhat off.

In the "Western Kingdom", the Golden Lion, after pondering for a moment, whispered to those nearby,

"I remember receiving a line report two days ago. It said Morioka secretly arranged a meeting with a few people."

"Thinking back now, it seems to be those few old ones."

Upon hearing the Golden Lion's words, the others recalled, then nodded slightly with a hint of realization in their eyes.

Truthfully, those below have simple requests of those above. Just a basic rule is enough.
