Wang Ke acknowledged their requests happily. Only Zhang Zhengdao looked annoyed during the whole process.
Damn it. You guys didn’t even look at me when I went to your doorstep and begged you to buy! Now you take the initiative to buy from Wang Ke? This is so freaky! He must have bewitched them somehow!
"Everyone, please!" Wang Ke invited everyone to their seats.
All of them sat, chuckling away. None of them looked down on the place; in any case, they had spent a long time in prison cells. It was an enjoyable time chatting with one another.
Zhao Si said to everyone with an embarrassed look, "I’m afraid you guys haven’t been informed of this. Wang Ke infiltrated the demons’ den once again to spy on the demonic sect; this time in the Qing Capital, not long ago! He risked his life to stop a group of demons so I could escape. I felt so…so ashamed of myself!"
"Brother Zhao Si, what are you talking about?" Wang Ke responded courteously, "We are all from the righteous faction. Sacrificing for the greater good is necessary in critical times!"
"Fortunately, Brother Wang came out safe and sound, or else I would feel guilty for the rest of my life!" Zhao Si sighed in relief.
Wang Ke smiled and replied, "Brother Zhao Si, let’s not talk about this anymore. Come, let’s toast! Drink!"
At once, the guests started enjoying themselves.
Zhang Zhengdao sat by the side with a stunned face. Damn, Wang Ke is this popular now? Why?
"Wang Ke, you went to the Qing Capital to spy on the demonic sect?" Tie Liuyun asked.
Wang Ke nodded and said, "That’s right. I came to the Dragon Gate Assembly to inform you and the rest. You guys must be careful! I believe something really dangerous might happen!"
"Oh?" Everyone listened solemnly.
"Some of the demonic Parlor Lords are up to no good; they extracted the ley line gold dragon under the Qing Capital. I’m afraid that they’re planning to catch us off guard during the Dragon Gate Assembly!" Wang Ke said.
"They extracted the draconic ley line?" Everyone had serious looks on their faces.
"Yeah. The demonic sect is planning something big! It cost me a lot to get this information! I was almost beaten to a pulp by the demons as I dug for information!" Wang Ke answered.
"What?" The crowd was shocked to hear that.
He continued explaining, "Of course, I was also trying to save a group of righteous disciples from the Golden Crow Sect. I made a bet with the Parlor Lords: to have a demon hit me with a hundred palm strikes in exchange for our comrades’ lives! Thank goodness I succeeded in saving them while also gaining the demonic disciples’ trust. That’s why I could bring this message today!" Wang Ke answered.
"You were struck a hundred times? And they just watched? The arrogant demons!" Tie Liuyun raged.
"Senior brother, don’t be angry. It was my duty! Of course, news about this might reach your ears soon, but now I feel better as you now know the truth! You don’t have to tell others about it!" Wang Ke advised them.
He laid out the information while preparing against anyone who could try to frame him.
"Brother Wang, it’s been tough on you!" Zhao Si said, feeling moved.
"It’s nothing! I’m still healthy and strong! One more thing, I heard that the demonic sect is trying to cultivate a wicked technique!" Wang Ke said.
"A wicked technique?" The crowd was taken aback.
"Yes. They are capturing people of special birth to make a Demonic Pill!" Wang Ke answered.
"A demonic Pill? What’s that?" The crowd wondered.
"I’m just as clueless. Either way, it’s to use living humans to make the pill, which is pure evil in itself. This is a very important operation for the demonic sect!" Wang Ke said.
"Who among the demons would be taking the pill?" Tie Liuyun asked.
"I don’t know either. That person must be highly ranked and beyond me!" Wang Ke bluffed.
"Could it be the Demon Sovereign?" They looked appalled.
The Demon Sovereign wants to make that Demonic Pill? That’s huge!
"Brother Wang, do you know what kind of people they’re using to make the pill?" Zhao Si asked.
"I know a little, which I already told Zhang Zhengdao about yesterday. I will have him draw up a list of names later; please help me to persuade the ones on the list to be extra careful. Tell them it would be better if they return to their sects and enter secluded cultivation!" Wang Ke answered.
"It’s that dangerous?" Zhao Si asked.
"Oh yeah, Brother Zhao Si. You are one of them! You need to be extremely careful. It would be better if you hide for the time being!" Wang Ke said.
"Me?" Zhao Si was shocked to hear that.
Having the Demon Sovereign’s eyes on me would be more than dangerous! He was instantly covered in cold sweat.
"Thank you, Brother Wang, for letting me know!" Zhao Si thanked Wang Ke.
Everyone nodded and chimed in, "Yeah, Brother Wang, thanks for your hard work!"
Only Zhang Zhengdao was dumbstruck. Demonic Pill? What trickery is this? You didn’t tell me anything about it.
Wang Ke squinted at Zhang Zhengdao as a sign to act. The latter noticed how nervous Zhao Si was, immediately understanding what needed to be done.
Demonic Pill? Bullsh*t Demonic Pill! Wang Ke is trying to drive people away! He wants to frighten all the people who bought insurance and make them return to their sects.
Many may die since it looks like there will be a fierce battle during the Dragon Gate Assembly. Wang Ke would lose a lot of money if some of the ones insured die!
The best choice is for them to get lost… Uhh no, to meditate in isolation!
Wang Ke! Such a shameless excuse!
"That’s right. Wang Ke told me about it yesterday. Once we share the information, please help us persuade the ones listed to stay safe!" Zhang Zhengdao said as he patted his chest, all to reinforce Wang Ke’s claims.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Everyone. I invited you here because there’s something else for which I need your help!" Wang Ke said in a serious tone.
"Brother Wang, whatever it is, please tell us!" The crowd waited for him to speak.
"You guys know that I’m working undercover in the demonic sect. Although I’m still safe from exposure, many demons suspect me! This matter is completely unrelated to my personal safety! I just want to save more righteous disciples! That’s why I will go to the demonic sect once again!" Wang Ke said.
"Wang Ke, you’re going right into the lion’s den!" Tie Liuyun said, feeling worried.
"I know it’s dangerous. But I have to do it! I’ve already taken steps towards this; there’s no way back. I expect many people to misunderstand me… I just hope that all of you understand what I am doing. For that alone you will have my gratitude!" Wang Ke said.
"Of course, we understand. Whoever dares to slander you, I, Zhao Si, will make sure they get what they deserve!" Zhao Si said with staring eyes.
"That’s right. Brother Wang, you saved us back on Divine Dragon Island. You even saved the Golden Crow Sect disciples captured in the capital not long ago. Such a brave soul; I would never forgive whoever dares to speak ill of you!" said another person.
"Thank you, everyone, for your understanding! I’m not too worried about the righteous faction. What worries me the most are the demons suspicious about my identity! That’s why I need your help to provide some cover!" Wang Ke answered.
"How can we provide cover?" Tie Liuyun asked.
Zhang Zhengdao’s eyes were wide open. Do you really need some cover? You’re doing things so blatantly as it is! The only thing you’re missing is a trumpet to herald your every move!
"I want to build a second God Wang Tower to confuse the demons!" Wang Ke said.
"Oh?" The crowd wondered how that would work.
"I’m going to build it right at the center of the Dragon Cultivation Town!" he explained further.
"The town has a circular arrangement, and the Dragon Gate Assembly is held right at the center… You still want to build it there?" Tie Liuyun was shocked.
"That’s right! Acquiring land in this town is very complex, as it involves the residents’ interests as well as the competition between the major immortal sects! I want to build the tower to confuse the demonic faction! But if I were to acquire that piece of land, many people would surely voice their objections, especially the immortal sects!" Wang Ke voiced his concern.
Zhao Si said, "Our sects will surely be OK with Brother Wang’s plan. As for the other righteous sects, we have friends there who can persuade their fellow sect mates. It’s just that… What’s your purpose for building the tower?"
"To serve demonic disciples!" Wang Ke explained.
"Oh?" Everyone frowned.
Serve demonic disciples?
Wang Ke continued his answer solemnly, "If I do that, the demons who are still suspicious of me will be confused; after all, I would be building a tower to serve them! They will surely think that I’m doing this for the demonic sect! Little do they know that the tower is built to spy on their every move. While eavesdropping on their conversations inside the new tower, I will be able to grasp their secrets for the benefit of our righteous faction!"
All of them were amazed by his plan. So, the new tower will be made to hamper, paralyze, and keep watch over the demonic sect? Such a good idea!
"Brother Wang, that’s very dangerous!" Zhao Si was worried.
"I know. But this will benefit us greatly! Our righteous disciples will be safer! I think it’s well worth it! Still, it’s going to be very troublesome to develop. That’s why I hope to have your support; please head to all the righteous sect’s camps and tell them not to stop me!" Wang Ke said in a serious tone.
"Brother Wang, you risked your life to enter the demons’ lair for the sake of all righteous sects! And now, you’re building a tower to spy on the demonic sect; you are building a prison for them! Who would dare to stop you? I will reason with them!" someone exclaimed with a deep voice.
"Brother Wang, leave it to me!" Zhao Si agreed.
Tie Liuyun patted his chest and promised, "Junior brother, I’m pretty sure the other sects will give us face, as we represent the Heavenly Wolf Sect. Don’t worry, with me around, no righteous disciples would come to trouble you while you build the second tower!"
Only Zhang Zhengdao looked at Wang Ke blankly as he sucked a mouthful of cold air.
The rest didn’t understand Wang Ke’s intention, but Zhang Zhengdao knew. Damn, it’s got nothing to do with spying on the demonic disciples! He realized what the real goal was, right when Wang Ke said to ‘serve demonic sect disciples’. He’s going to start raking in the demonic sect disciples’ money!
Wang Ke is going to extend his fiendish, money-dredging claw toward the demonic sect?
He… How dare he? Damn, he took advantage of the righteous sects, and now he’s going to do it to the demonic too?
No wonder he was talking about expanding his influence, increasing market size and building a tower. It’s no mere tower! It’s a money gobbling tower! Demonic disciples! Watch out! Trouble is coming for you too!
