Just like that, Huang Shangzong pondered for a mont before nodding deeply and saying, "My opinion coincides with yours."
"Qiu Tu's promotion has been too rapid, and... neither his achievents, capabilities, nor his experience are remotely sufficient for a promotion to Deputy Speaker."
"So... let's put this application on hold for now."
Seeing the response he desired, Dai Yukang's eyes twinkled with a smile.
Next, they discussed so other official matters before Dai Yukang bid farewell and left Huang Shangzong's office.
After Dai Yukang left, while watching the tightly shut office door for a couple of seconds, Huang Shangzong suddenly chuckled.
'These politicians really have filthy hearts...'
Huang Shangzong has recently been pulling Dai Yukang into his camp over the past month.
The reason is simple: Dai Yukang beca Deputy Speaker as the head of the Security Bureau system.
Thus, his power and legitimacy all stem from the Security Bureau system.
However... the Security Departnt's system is actually still subordinate to the military's control across major cities.
Since becoming Deputy Speaker, what Dai Yukang has been working on most is trying to get the Security Departnt independent from the military.
But for the military, the Security Departnt is not just a departnt handling extraordinary affairs but also a vital intelligence and spy system.
Once the Security Departnt is separated, the military would be imdiately blind...
Furthermore, the Security Departnt has relatively weak grassroots power and still needs the military's support to carry out certain tasks.
So even though the Sanctuary keeps elevating the status of the Security Departnt, the separation at the grassroots level is still slow.
At this ti, influenced by Old Guo, a refined gentleman, Huang Shangzong decisively seized the opportunity and provided certain support to Dai Yukang.
Because separation and upgrading are not tasks that can be accomplished overnight.
Therefore, during this period, Dai Yukang, desiring further support from Huang Shangzong, decisively leaned towards Huang Shangzong and grew increasingly close to him.
Huang Shangzong guessed that this honeymoon phase between them could at least last until the completion of the separation and upgrading process.
But, that would be enough.
Dai Yukang's position among the Deputy Speakers is relatively low, so he is more convenient for handling many matters—like this ti denying Qiu Tu's promotion, which was a result of Dai Yukang fully grasping Huang Shangzong's intentions and thus taking the initiative.
In this way, many issues allowed Huang Shangzong to maintain his Speaker's style, allowing the Deputy Speakers to discuss first before he delivers the final verdict.
Such a practice has allowed him to regain the leadership in the Speaker etings.
Besides the person Dai Yukang, the Security Departnt is also very important to Huang Shangzong.
The Security Departnt is the most important departnt for intelligence and extraordinary affairs, and its importance will rise to new heights during warti.
Being able to pull Dai Yukang to his side, along with the support of Ye Mingfeng from the military, Huang Shangzong could almost achieve any military objectives!
Thinking this, Huang Shangzong picked up the application for Qiu Tu's promotion to Deputy Speaker from the table, and with a cold snort, threw it aside.
A few days ago, Qiu Tu's promotion to a Fourth-order Cataclysmic really did shock him.
But... this application for Deputy Speaker only made Huang Shangzong laugh.
Just because he got promoted to Fourth-order Cataclysmic, he thinks he can be promoted to Deputy Speaker?
Did Qiu Tu really think the position of Deputy Speaker is as common as cabbages on the street?
At this mont, while Huang Shangzong was thinking this.
Suddenly, his door was rapidly knocked on "thump thump thump."
Huang Shangzong gathered his thoughts and then said with a deep voice, "Co in."
Following Huang Shangzong's nod, his secretary, Han Xuan, pushed the door and quickly stepped in.
Approaching Huang Shangzong, Secretary Han leaned down and whispered a few words into his ear.
The next second, with a shocked expression on his face, Huang Shangzong said, "What? Qiu Tu single-handedly killed an Evil God!?"
After seeing Secretary Han nod, Huang Shangzong's thick eyebrows furrowed tightly.
He said, "How is that possible?"
"He just got promoted to Pseudo Fourth Order, right?"
"And... is an Evil God a common cabbage? That he could kill at will?"
"He couldn't have gotten ahold of a 'Boundless Divine Crystal', trying to deceive us, right?"
Hearing Huang Shangzong's words, Secretary Han quickly leaned down and spoke softly, "Speaker, the Fourth-Order Evil God that Qiu Tu killed didn't just appear out of nowhere."
"It's the Whale Shark."
"One of the three Evil Gods who previously tried to ddle with Xinjie City."
"According to the information reported by Qiu Tu, the Whale Shark was apparently still scheming over the 'Xinjie Territory', when Qiu Tu happened to encounter it, and thus he conveniently killed it."
Huang Shangzong:…
Huang Shangzong has also slain a Fourth-Order Evil God before, so he understands the strength of an Evil God.
Just happened to encounter ... conveniently killed ...
Strangely, Huang Shangzong found these words incredibly foreign.
'How could there be such a coincidence?'
'How could Qiu Tu possibly have such strength?'
At this mont, possibly detecting Huang Shangzong's disbelief, Secretary Han continued, "Additionally, Qiu Tu said in order to avoid disputes, he recorded the entire process of killing the Whale Shark."
"He copied six 'Hundred-Eyes Visions', and then sent them over."
Seeing Qiu Tu being so confident, Huang Shangzong couldn't help but feel a slightly ominous premonition.
He said gravely, "Bring it to for a review."
Secretary Han had clearly prepared earlier. So upon hearing Huang Shangzong's words, he imdiately handed over the 'Hundred-Eyes Visions' given by Qiu Tu to Huang Shangzong.
