According to the intelligence, the political structure of the Third Sanctuary is similar to that of the Eighth Sanctuary, with the Supre Council holding the highest power over the sanctuary.
However, compared to the Eighth Sanctuary's still relatively barbaric political structure, the Third Sanctuary is much more mature.
As Qiu Tu carefully read through the information, he felt that the political structure of the Third Sanctuary bore so resemblance to the "parliantary republic" system of his previous life.
Although there were multiple factions within their high ranks, the competition between the factions was even more bloody and cruel.
Every five years, they would re-select and compete for the 36 seats in the parliant.
And the faction that occupied the most seats among the 36 mbers of Parliant would be responsible for forming the new governnt.
Just one year ago, the Third Sanctuary went through a bloody election, and the Order Faction successfully occupied the most seats in the parliant, becoming the governing faction and forming a new governnt.
After understanding the political system of the Third Sanctuary, Qiu Tu furrowed his brows and then quickly skimd down to the list of the Deputy Speakers of the new Supre Council.
Kong Binwang, Baron Gros, Wanyan Zuyu, Cornelia…...
Until he saw the last na, Qiu Tu's eyes brightened slightly because the na "Shen Yuzhou" was clearly written.
'So, this person really exists.'
With this thought, the doubts in Qiu Tu's mind about Shen Lingshuang fell sharply.
He searched through the intelligence in his hand.
As a Deputy Speaker, Qiu Tu was only two steps away from the core layer of the sanctuary. Therefore, his clearance to read confidential intelligence was extrely high.
Surface intelligence of the high-level figures of the Third Sanctuary is considered confidential, yet there is not much value in keeping it secret.
So, it didn't take long for Qiu Tu to find several pages of intelligence on Shen Yuzhou.
The intelligence showed that Shen Yuzhou was forty-two years old this year, a young mber of the Order Faction and also a leading figure among the Young Faction.
His background was unknown; he was a child picked up by the leader of the Order Faction during an outing and has been learning, growing up, and being nurtured by the leader's side ever since, gradually becoming a core force in the Order Faction.
Later, he married the daughter of another faction's high-level and had a daughter nad... Shen Lingshuang.
Qiu Tu paused for a mont as the intelligence reached this point. Then, he flipped to the next page.
The second page revealed a familiar smiling face of a girl, unmistakably Shen Lingshuang.
'Huh...'
At that mont, Qiu Tu inexplicably let out a sigh of relief.
It seed that Shen Lingshuang had not deceived him; her na and identity were both real.
That being the case, she probably wasn't that "special Cataclysmic Material."
In that case, there might not be a direct confrontation with that Peak Fifth Rank Evil God, and no room for diation either.
As for the possibility that Xiao Bai was the Cataclysmic Material...
Well... the emotional bond between Xiao Bai and Qiu Tu wasn't that deep.
Qiu Tu would protect if he could, use if he could, but if it turned out to be impossible, he would also choose to give up.
This would greatly increase his strategic depth.
Thinking this way, Qiu Tu relaxed and began to skim through the intelligence in his hands with less attention to detail.
The intelligence reported that Shen Yuzhou had a good relationship with his wife and daughter, and he was a man of great ability who also cared for his family.
And Shen Lingshuang had shown a lot of talent from an early age.
For instance, she had an outstanding talent for Potions, having discovered the uses of 12 types of Cataclysmic Material.
For instance, she also had a strong talent for Crafting, having improved 5 types of commonly used Cataclysmic treasures.
For instance, she also had a decent talent for Cultivation, having beco a Peak Fourth Rank Catastrophe-evolver before the age of 18…
At first, Qiu Tu only found these pieces of intelligence to be sowhat peculiar. However, when he saw the last piece describing Shen Lingshuang's strength, his eyes widened suddenly!
Hold on!
An 18-year-old Peak Fourth Rank Catastrophe-evolver?!
Without thinking, Qiu Tu's hand involuntarily gripped the stack of intelligence, causing a few creases to form in the paper.
The friction of the paper quickly reminded Qiu Tu that Tao Yaoyao was still standing in front of him.
So, he imdiately adjusted the force of his grip without showing any outward reaction.
Despite his ability to control his grip, he couldn't easily adjust his inner emotions.
If he rembered correctly, Shen Lingshuang had always seed to be an ordinary person.
She even told Qiu Tu that the high echelons of the Sanctuary didn't dare to let their children awaken to Cataclysm at will.
After all, stepping onto the Path of Catastrophe carries many unpredictable dangers. The stronger the power, the more easily one could be influenced by Paths and Laws, potentially leading to malformation, madness, or assimilation by the Path.
Therefore, that was why her father had not allowed her to undergo Cataclysm Awakening.
But now, the intelligence showed that the real Shen Lingshuang was actually a Fourth Order Catastrophe-evolver! And a Peak Fourth Rank powerhouse like him!
This did not match at all with Shen Lingshuang's actual abilities, nor with what she had told him.
As for the possibility of Shen Lingshuang deliberately hiding her strength to deceive him?
Qiu Tu didn't think so.
Because... the intelligence, after introducing all about Shen Yuzhou and Shen Lingshuang, ended with an update from a month ago.
It read: Shen Yuzhou, accompanied by his only daughter Shen Lingshuang, attended a banquet hosted by the Sixth Sanctuary's King, where they had a friendly eting with King Kang and Princess Xi of the Sixth Sanctuary.
