In fact, to prevent the possibility of betrayal by the jackal while he was away, Qiu Tu used the excuse, "Leaving the children in the Southwest Region isn't safe, they might fall victim to the Fog Hidden Society," to have the jackal bring his three pups to the "Northwestern Region."
As for Candle Dance, there was no need to elaborate. She was the strongest enforcer in Qiu Tu's journey to the "core area" this ti.
Shen Lingshuang was included because Qiu Tu planned to conduct an experint on her and Candle Dance.
Only Rain Butterfly had been truly called upon by Qiu Tu to assist him.
Qiu Tu's main objective for having Rain Butterfly arrive early at the "core area" was to establish the basic intelligence network of the "Four States Group" in the "core area."
The primary purpose of establishing this intelligence network was to investigate the whereabouts of Zhao Ji and Qing Lan.
There was no need to ntion Zhao Ji. She was the most formidable supporter Qiu Tu had encountered in his life.
Any intelligence about her carried extrely high value.
Even after Qiu Tu arrived in the "core area," he could sense Zhao Ji's location and even perceived that she was moving quickly towards him.
However, understanding her movents, knowing where she went and what she did, could provide Qiu Tu with more insight into her, and perhaps... a chance to gain so opportunities.
As for Qing Lan, she was the backing the jackal told Qiu Tu about in the "core area." She was an Eighth Rank Great Evil God who did not love work and only wanted to slack off every day. Now she was one of the 12 senior mbers of the "Fog Hidden Society."
Qiu Tu had nurous conflicts and issues with the "Fog Hidden Society." Not to ntion distant ones, just to speak of the recent ones: the little Yaksha was still in Qiu Tu's possession.
So, Qiu Tu also wanted to connect with that Eighth Rank Great Evil God, Qing Lan, to keep updated on the "Fog Hidden Society's" movents and plans targeting him.
Even, if conditions were favorable, Qiu Tu wouldn't mind turning this Eighth Rank Great Evil God into a defector to beco his inside agent.
Thinking this, Qiu Tu looked at Rain Butterfly and listened carefully as Rain Butterfly spoke about the intelligence on these two Great Evil Gods.
According to Rain Butterfly, Qing Lan's whereabouts were easy to check. As she was rather lazy and rarely left her base of operations.
And Qing Lan's base of operations was none other than the "Qinglan City" next to the "Sandu City" where Qiu Tu was currently staying.
The cities nearby were transford from the "Boundless Heart Sea Region" controlled by Qing Lan. So, Qing Lan's power in this region would directly rival the peak of the Eighth Rank.
Unless a "Divine King" personally ca here, no Evil God could do anything to her.
Qing Lan had no other hobbies besides fishing and listening to tunes. Despite being a young girl with a jade-sculpted doll-like appearance, her pasti resembled that of an old man.
Usually, Qing Lan managed the affairs of the "Fog Hidden Society" and the nine states under her control. After handling these, in the evening, she either went night fishing by the river outside "Qinglan City" or visited a brothel to listen to tunes. The essence of leisure.
According to the jackal, this was also due to Qing Lan intentionally delaying the process.
The jackal said: Qing Lan was a true genius, whether in terms of cultivation talent or administrative affairs.
However, she was always lazy. Therefore, she would often use 10% of her ti to complete 90% of her work, and then use 90% of her ti to polish off the remaining 10%.
After that, she would leisurely pursue activities she wanted to do.
As for why she didn't just finish her work directly and then play. Of course, it's because... the "Fog Hidden Society" was relentless.
As soon as there were empty slots among the high-ups, the "Fog Hidden Society" would imdiately send new tasks or work over, keeping the higher-ups continuously engaged. It was truly squeezing to the extre.
Thus, Qing Lan, who loved to slack off, after suffering several losses, delved into learning the art of "ti managent," thereby setting her own schedule and plan.
In contrast to the clearly-targeted Qing Lan, Zhao Ji's whereabouts were much harder to grasp.
Although Zhao Ji was stunningly beautiful, with a cold and stern temperant, rarely smiling, which made her highly conspicuous.
But... she appeared to be incredibly familiar with the "Boundless Heart Sea - Core Region." So, she would only occasionally stop in cities.
For instance, the first city she stopped at was "Sandu City," followed by "Dahu Pass," "Spirit Rock Mountain," "Smoke Rain Castle," with her last known appearance being at "Mandala Desert's" "Mandala City."
Reportedly, she ventured deep into the "Mandala Desert" and then disappeared.
After listening to Rain Butterfly's introduction, Qiu Tu nodded slightly, feeling very satisfied.
Rain Butterfly had been in the "core area" for only a little more than a month, and despite having substantial resources and mature personnel, the ability to establish an intelligence network so quickly was exceptional.
At least, for Qiu Tu, it would be challenging to achieve this himself.
And at that mont, as Qiu Tu was thinking, Rain Butterfly spoke again.
She said, "By the way, Qiu Tu. There's sothing else I want to discuss with you."
Qiu Tu returned to awareness, then looked at Rain Butterfly, "Go ahead."
Rain Butterfly said, "Actually... the reason our intelligence network was established so quickly is not solely because of our own manpower."
"I also recruited a group of Third or Fourth Rank Evil Gods to be our peripheral mbers."
"Although they have Third or Fourth Rank strength, in the "core area," they are completely insignificant."
"Moreover, because they turn into 'Boundless Divine Crystals' after their death, they live in constant peril as others covet them daily."
"I adeptly detected this issue and recalled our strategy of 'Controlling Evil Gods with Evil Gods,' so I had Muye gather them, trading resources for intelligence and beginning cultivation."
