To tell the truth, she really couldn't accept it!
She had planned so well, taking every aspect into account, and she executed it well too. Why did she still fail!
And fail so miserably at that!
Especially when she thought of how hard she had worked for so long, just to beco the "Domain Master" again and reclaim what belonged to her, only to have it all destroyed by Qiu Tu, she felt so wronged.
She wasn't greedy, was she? What's wrong with wanting to have her own small domain in this new century?
Moreover... how much benefit had Qiu Tu wrung from her, how many advantages had he gained.
Though she wasn't going all out for Qiu Tu... she did treat him like one of her own: she had stolen her sister's treasure vault to give things to Qiu Tu.
And yet, this is how Qiu Tu treated her!
As she thought of this, Larilo felt even more wronged.
At the mont, whether it was detecting Larilo's aggrieved emotions, Qiu Tu also gradually put away his playful mood.
He waved to Larilo and then said, "Your Highness, co, let's talk."
Hearing Qiu Tu's call, Larilo crossed her arms and turned her head away, ignoring Qiu Tu.
Seeing this, Qiu Tu smiled and unfolded his "Order Space."
The next second, Larilo, who was completely sealed of her abilities, fell straight from the sky!
Larilo scread in fright!
But before she could hit the ground, she felt herself falling into a broad embrace—Qiu Tu had leapt into the air and caught her in his arms.
Feeling the safety of Qiu Tu's embrace, Larilo's face flushed, feeling slightly shy.
But the next second, she rembered all the things Qiu Tu had done to her, and that her fall was also Qiu Tu's doing, so she, unable to contain her anger, clenched her fists and gave Qiu Tu three punches!
The Heretic Goddess Girl, having her Catastrophe Power sealed, didn't hurt at all when she hit.
So, Qiu Tu took it as coquettish behavior and carried her down to the bamboo raft.
Then, Qiu Tu also reverted to his serious manner, no longer joking around.
He sincerely said to Larilo, "Your Highness, don't bla for stopping you from becoming the 'Dock Sea Area's Domain Master."
"There's a reason for everything I do."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, and feeling her power restored, Larilo struggled a bit and broke free from Qiu Tu's embrace.
She then sat down on the bamboo raft, gesturing with her hand, "Please make up a story. Oh, I an, please speak."
Qiu Tu smiled and ignored Larilo's sarcasm, and then sincerely explained, "There are two reasons."
"The first one is because of ."
Qiu Tu said, "Your Highness, my aim in slaying the Whale Shark was simple, just to beco the Deputy Speaker of Dongye State."
"So when the ti cos, I will definitely have to hand over the Whale Shark's carcass to the Sanctuary."
"When they see the Whale Shark dead, do you think the Sanctuary won't co to investigate the new Domain Master of the 'Dock Sea Area'? And ask why I didn't let the Human Camp take over the region?"
Hearing this, Larilo nonchalantly said, "You could also say you didn't have the ti, or your power was limited, and you couldn't control it."
She continued, "And 'Dock Sea Area' is so far from you, with three or four Evil Gods in the neighboring regions, wouldn't it be unsurprising for it to be retaken by an Evil God?"
Hearing this, Qiu Tu nodded slightly, "Yes, being controlled by an Evil God is not surprising. But... it can't be controlled by you."
"Can't be controlled by ?" Larilo asked puzzledly, "Why not?"
Qiu Tu pointed at Larilo and then said, "Don't forget, you were saved by , and I let you go."
"After your fall, I saved you, then after helping you recover, I let you go. After that, I killed an Evil God, and you just happened to take control of that region."
"Do you think... the Sanctuary will believe we are innocent?"
"Wouldn't they suspect that I've betrayed the Human Camp?"
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Larilo fell silent for a while.
Qiu Tu's rationale was sound, leaving her with no room to refute.
As an Evil God, she shouldn't care about the life and death of a single human like Qiu Tu.
But... ever since she inexplicably began dreaming about Qiu Tu recently, her feelings towards him seed a bit off.
Then... after Qiu Tu gave her a basketball-sized "Boundless Divine Crystal," restored part of her power, and took the risk to let her go, her feelings towards him beca even more bizarre...
That's also why she risked coming back to see Qiu Tu, and didn't forget to "bring a gift" for him.
So, if she beca the Domain Master of the 'Dock Sea Area,' it really could endanger Qiu Tu.
Then she... was indeed a bit hesitant.
Quietly contemplating for two seconds, Larilo bothered not to think further about this weird question. Coming back to her senses, she then asked, "And the second reason?"
Qiu Tu pointed at himself and Larilo and then said, "The second reason is, of course, because of you."
Qiu Tu said, "You said it yourself."
"'Dock Sea Area' borders with three or four Evil Gods. You're not one of the powerful Evil Gods, living next to so many strong ones, do you think you can live in peace?"
"And... this region is not large."
"I don't think it's worth the risk for Your Highness."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Larilo rolled her eyes.
This damn man, he's really being picky!
She's barely managed to have a region and reclaim the status of 'Domain Master,' and yet he's still complaining.
Seeing her reaction, Qiu Tu said with a smile, "Does Your Highness feel like I'm being insensitive? Does the satiated not understand the famished?"
