La Riluo Is My Woman

Qiu Tu was not deliberately teasing Zhao Ji; he had his own reasons.

During his interactions with La Riluo over this period, he had discovered a very important issue:

Someone as important as Old Master Qin, a helper as valuable as Jia Wei—La Riluo could discard or sell them whenever she pleased.

This showed that although evil gods treated believers as sources for gathering power, developing their strength, and serving as tools for their descent, they did not value them that much.

That might be because the source of an evil god's power still came from itself, and believers were not all that helpful to them.

So, if Qiu Tu told Zhao Ji that he was La Riluo's believer, then to a great evil god like Zhao Ji, it would basically amount to introducing himself as: I am La Riluo's disposable item.

Thus, after deciding to deceive Zhao Ji, Qiu Tu began carefully considering what identity he should use.

After thinking it over, he felt that the identity of La Riluo's partner was the most suitable.

Such a special identity could draw Zhao Ji's attention, prevent her from acting rashly, and add weight to his words. It was the perfect solution.

Of course, when devising this plan, he had also worried that Zhao Ji would be unable to accept an ordinary human as her "brother-in-law" and simply kill him without regard for La Riluo's feelings.

Therefore, when he revealed his "identity," he deliberately dragged out the words "I am," while thinking of the title "brother-in-law," so that he would have time to react.

If Crisis Countdown gave him a warning, he would immediately change his words. If there was no warning, only then would he continue.

Now, at least, everything seemed to be developing in a favorable direction.

With that
