Let them offer their loyalty!

But in reality, only the higher-ups knew that this was a form of compensation and concession.

—Yan Chen had already suffered enough, almost to the point of being barefooted; and with Liu Xiongyuan and his two companions stepping on his shoulders to kill Larilo, if Yan Chen didn't receive any compensation, he might actually flip the table.

Thus, the benefit division of Moonlight Lake was concluded.

After clocking out, Qiu Tu didn't ask his driver to take him home but instead drove himself to the Security Department to meet with Qin Shuman.

And Qin Shuman showed Qiu Tu how to use Zheng Tao, the Evil God Cultist, to track Larilo in return.

It was a Cataclysmic treasure known as the "Homologous Compass."

The function of this Cataclysmic treasure was straightforward; it could target a specific power and then guide the user to the direction of the homologous power.

Such Cataclysmic treasures were usually utilized for mining veins or searching for precious Cataclysmic Material. But they were also remarkably effective in tracking down Evil Gods.

Hence, the search team from the Security Department, carrying Zheng Tao with them, began their operation from the center of Xinjie City and started searching outward.

Using a Cataclysmic treasure for such a search was both tedious and dull.

Every 1.5 hours, the search team would use the Homologous Compass and then start halving Larilo's potential range.

But because Xinjie City was so vast, they only managed to reduce the area to one thirty-second of its entirety after an entire night.

But let's not forget, the total area of Xinjie City is a whopping 11,200 square kilometers. Even one thirty-second of it is still 350 square kilometers.

This search might take an age to complete.

Finding it extremely dull, Qiu Tu didn't continue with the operation and, after greeting Qin Shuman, left the Security Department.

He drove towards Longshan Road.

After several rounds of security checks, Qiu Tu entered Longshan Road.

He checked the time; it was already 11 p.m.

Hesitating momentarily, Qiu Tu ultimately couldn't bear to disturb Shen Lingshuang, so he turned the car around and headed to the villa he shared with Fang Tangtang.

He arrived at the villa's courtyard and parked the car.

A few bodyguards greeted him.

Recognizing Qiu Tu, they quickly spoke into their walkie-talkies and then hurried back into the darkness.

Qiu Tu didn't mind and made his way into the villa.

The lights on the first floor of the villa were all off. Only the second floor had a faint glow.

Hesitantly, Qiu Tu ascended the stairs, only to find that the light was coming from the study room on the second floor.

He tiptoed towards the study, noticing that the door wasn't completely closed and left a gap about as wide as a fist.

Peering through the gap, Qiu Tu saw Fang Tangtang, wearing a silk pajama set, sitting uncharacteristically at the study's desk, reading.

However, she clearly wasn't cut out for reading as she rested her cheek on her hand, her little head bobbing, as if she were about to fall asleep at any moment.

"What's this girl torturing herself for? She clearly doesn't want to read, so why force herself?"

With that thought in mind, Qiu Tu gently knocked on the door of the study and pushed it open.

Hearing the knock, Tangtang, drowsy, lifted her head to see Qiu Tu step inside.

In that moment, she was startled, then her eyes were filled with joy.

However, it seemed that facing Qiu Tu in person was a different scenario to exchanging messages.

So instead of being as bold as her texts suggested, Tangtang's face turned "bright red."

Then she stood up, head lowered, somewhat awkward and nervous as she said, "Qiu Tu, you, you're back?"
