Let them offer their loyalty!

After Qiu Tu relaxed just a bit, Yan Chen took advantage of Vice President Tian's mistress's case, and got him to provide the Investigation Bureau with a full set of new surveillance equipment. Then, Yan Chen turned around and sold out Vice President Tian.

Afterward, whether it was the "Evil God case" or the "8.19 Pharmacy robbery case," whether Yan Chen knew the information beforehand or learned the truth afterward, he always managed to gain huge benefits with just a few small moves.

Even... the death of Jia Shu.

It seemed that Qiu Tu benefitted the most, but in fact... Yan Chen also gained a lot.

Not only did he replace a Head of the Political Department who was becoming disobedient, but he also successfully controlled all the candidates for the new Head of the Political Department within the circle of his confidants.

That is to say, no matter who the new Head of the Political Department would be, it would be his own person.

But that wasn't all. He had again taken control of the Political Department and even managed to insert his own secretary, Ji Chen, into the Political Department, who took a three-level jump to become the Deputy Staff Director.

He simply exploited every profitable aspect of the entire situation to the extreme.

So ever since Qiu Tu transmigrated, even though he had been trying to undermine Yan Chen and attempt to dissolve his power,

But... each time he made a move, Yan Chen would always find a new direction, then turn the crisis into an opportunity.

Like this time with the devouring of Larilo and his rise to a Fourth-Order Cataclysmic. Qiu Tu guessed that this might also be the result of Yan Chen's long-term planning.

Qiu Tu was able to deduce Larilo's target to be Yanyan after he learned about the various arrangements Larilo made in the past two years.

With Yan Chen's shrewdness, it's very likely that he discovered Larilo's arrangements earlier than Qiu Tu and successfully deduced that Larilo's target was his daughter.

Then... he didn't make a fuss, didn't counterattack, nor stop Larilo's schemes; instead, he went with the flow and let Secretary Bai pledge allegiance to Larilo, helping Larilo complete the whole plan.

Afterward, he rode the waves, helped Qiu Tu cut off several of Larilo's limbs, forcing Larilo to only trust Secretary Bai, thus completely controlling Larilo's actions...

In the end, he completely dragged Larilo into his trap.

This series of maneuvers was both cruel and cunning...

He was like a silent spider, weaving a massive web for Larilo, then quietly watching as Larilo fell deeper until he was completely captured!

The more he thought about it, the more Qiu Tu marveled at Yan Chen's cunning and depth, sinister to a frightening level. So when he got to the end of the corridor, he picked up the phone, ready to chat with Qin Shuman about this topic.

Once the call connected, Qin Shuman's voice immediately came through the receiver, "Qiu Tu, did you see that Illusion of the Law?"

Qiu Tu responded, "I saw it,"

While speaking, he paused for a moment and then added, "Not only did I see it, but I also know the inside story of the matter."

Qin Shuman had indeed called to discuss intelligence with Qiu Tu. So, hearing that Qiu Tu knew the inside story, her voice immediately carried a hint of joy, "You really do have special channels for information."

"I didn't make a mistake coming to you."

Qiu Tu chuckled, not minding Qin Shuman's praise, and didn't quote a price—given Qin Shuman's intelligence, even if he didn't mention it, she would offer a reasonable price.

Therefore, he detailed how Yan Chen had schemed against Larilo and ultimately managed to devour her.

After patiently listening to the entire inside story and its complexities, Qin Shuman on the phone was obviously stunned.

She fell silent for a good ten seconds before slowly saying, "I was earlier guessing which Cataclysmic caused this anomaly."

"At first, I thought it was Director Tang, but unexpectedly it turned out to be Director Yan..."

As she spoke, Qin Shuman couldn't help but add, "It is quite surprising."

Qiu Tu smiled and remarked, "Isn't it."

Perhaps because Qin Shuman was one of the closest people to Qiu Tu in this world, as they chatted, Qiu Tu's mood actually relaxed a bit.

Relaxed spirits led to faster thinking.

So when Qin Shuman softly asked, "So Qiu Tu... what are you planning to do now?" Qiu Tu's brain actually came up with some new ideas.

He didn't share his plans right away but instead asked a question, "Shuman. If I try to stop Yan Chen's advancement now, will I be... by the Sanctuary...?"

Before Qiu Tu finished speaking, Qin Shuman interrupted him, "Yes, and not just Eighth Sanctuary. You will become the public enemy of all Sanctuaries."

"After all, regardless of what faction Yan Chen belongs to, his first identity is still a human."

"His advancement to a Pseudo Fourth-Order Cataclysmic in itself signifies the strengthening of the human race and the enhancement of human power."

"So, if you dare to disrupt Yan Chen's advancement, the various Sanctuaries will definitely charge you with 'Crimes against Humanity' and put you on the wanted list."

Continuing, Qin Shuman paused, then added, "Moreover, I don't think you can interrupt Yan Chen's promotion."

"Not to mention that after learning this news, the military will certainly deploy heavy troops to help defend Yan Chen."

"And as for him himself. He might seem to be advancing, but his strength is actually even more terrifying than before."

"He who is in the midst of advancement now has probably established a small automatic defense domain. Any living creature entering that domain will be attacked."

"So, without several Third-Order Peak Cataclysmics, I think it's impossible to even get close to him." Find your next read at My Virtual Library Empire
