My Gorgeous Master Forced Me to be a Spy at the Demon Clan! - Chapter 30

“With your aptitude, you do have the right to be proud.
“This old man knows that he is not qualified to take you in as a disciple. However, now that the demon lord is out on an errand, he is not in the demon sect.
“Apart from me and the old witch, Dharmaraja Baku, no one else has the right to teach you.
“I intend to take in a disciple on behalf of a teacher and let you enter the demon lord’s tutelage. What do you think?”
Ai Li originally wanted to use the Stairway to Heaven as a topic to arouse Alan’s interest. He wanted to take the opportunity to talk about taking in a disciple.
However, Alan clearly did not have any feelings toward the Stairway to Heaven.
A sentence that was rather interesting almost broke Ai Li’s defense.
After all, he was someone who could run on the Stairway to Heaven. Ai Li put away the fluke in his heart and did not hesitate to take in a disciple on behalf of his master. He wanted to take Alan down.
“Who is the demon lord? When did the demon gate have another demon lord?”
Alan was stunned. Before he came to the demon gate, Wine Fairy had told him in detail about the information of the demon gate.
He had heard of Dharmaraja Baku, the four-colored emissary, and so on.
However, when did a demon god appear?
Even the demon lord did not dare to call himself a god!
Alan did not conceal his identity as a spy and directly exposed the fact that he had already grasped the information of the demon gate.
“The demon lord has just reincarnated. He didn’t have it in the past. In the future, the entire nine regions will submit to the holy power of the demon lord.
“You don’t have to pretend that you don’t know. Previously, when the bell rang nine times and spread across the continent, both the righteous and the demonic sects were shocked.
“Otherwise, with your aptitude, how could you be sent as a spy?
“It’s just a pity that the eight great immortal sects don’t know the methods of our demon sect. They sent so many talented disciples for free to increase the foundation of our demon sect.”
Ai Li’s face was full of pride.
With Alan’s talent, even in the eight great immortal sects, he was definitely a direct disciple of the sect leader.
He might even be the candidate for the next sect leader.
It was normal for such a person to come into contact with some confidential information, and he was also familiar with the art of attacking the heart.
It was very difficult to bribe them.
Only by telling them honestly and unjustly about their current situation would there be a glimmer of hope.
Presumably, Alan had also discovered the fact that his true energy had been replaced by demonic energy. With his intelligence, he would naturally be able to understand what had happened to the spies that had been filmed in the past.
When talking to a smart person, one only needed to be careful.
Ai Li did not even need to deliberately mention the young man’s role model. He only needed to hand over an olive branch, and it would be enough for Alan to understand what he meant.
However, Alan’s talent was indeed amazing, so Ai Li had to find someone who could suppress Alan.
Therefore, he had no choice but to bring out the reincarnation of the demon lord to show that the demon sect had a deep foundation.
As long as he could become a disciple of the demon lord, his future would naturally be boundless. It was much better than being a mere righteous sect leader.
After all, it was the age of chaos. Even if the righteous sect leader’s cultivation had reached the Mahayana Realm, it would still be a bottleneck, and there was no possibility of a breakthrough.
“Have you seen the demon lord?”
Alan almost laughed out loud when he saw Ai Li actually use the demon lord to trick him.
“Of course I have. The demon lord is a true demon of the demon world who has descended to the mortal world. The moment he came to the nine regions, he naturally came to ask for the demon sect.
“He was personally received by the demon master of our demon sect. As the right protector, I was fortunate enough to meet him once from afar.
“The demon lord is eight feet tall and very handsome. With just a look, he can make the river flow backward and change its course. With a wave of his hand, he has the power to move mountains and fill seas.
“Unfortunately, the demon lord has important matters to attend to and can’t stay for long. I can bring you to meet him.
“Don’t worry. Before the demon lord left, he told me that he would select an outstanding talent as an entry-level disciple for this welcoming ceremony.
“This old man thinks you are pleasing to the eye and has already recommended you. What do you think? Aren’t you generous enough?”
Ai Li patted his chest with a forthright and righteous look.
He had once seen the image of the demon lord in the heart of the Earth’s fire. Although he had only seen it from a distance, it was not real, but it was not a complete lie as well.
As for the matter of taking in a disciple, it was just nonsense.
In order to be able to tie up a relationship with Alan before the old witch did, Ai Li could not care less.
He would first fake the imperial edict and explain when he really saw the demon lord’s reincarnated body in the future.
Presumably, the demon lord could understand his own difficulties.
“He can change the course of the river with a glance and move mountains and fill seas with a wave of his hand. Was he that powerful?”
Alan held back his laughter and looked at Ai Li from the corner of his eyes.
“Of course. The divine abilities of our demon sect are not something that a little kid like you can imagine.”
Ai Li had a serious expression on his face. He moved closer to Alan’s ear and whispered, “The demon lord can ignore the age of chaos and has already broken through to the Sky Demon Realm. As long as you join demon lord’s sect, you will also be able to obtain this technique. Isn’t it better than being a sect leader of the righteous path?”
Ai Li leaned against Alan with his shoulder and gave him a knowing look.
He secretly stuffed a secret manual into his hands. It was Ai Li’s specialty, the cultivation method of the Five Ghosts Soul Severing Hand.
“What you said does make sense.”
Alan took the secret manual and casually flipped through it. He knew that Ai Li had put in a lot of effort, and his tone immediately softened.
No matter what, Ai Li was one of the eight bitter Dharmaraja.
In terms of cultivation, he was only slightly weaker than Wine Fairy.
Since he had directly taught him his signature skill, Alan had no reason to refuse.
“Of course. This old man is already so old. How can I lie to a child like you?”
Ai Li laughed strangely and was very happy.
Even Dharmaraja Baku would have to wait until he had completed the three trials to take in a disciple.
Ai Li had the advantage of being close to the water tower, so he directly pinched the top student, Alan.
At that time, even if the old witch came to divide the disciples of the Jade Fairy Mountain with him, the losses would still be within acceptable limits.
In fact, after seeing Alan jogging on the Stairway to Heaven, Ai Li’s feelings for the people of the Jade Fairy Mountain had faded.
Once, it was difficult to find water in the vast sea, except for the mountain of sorcery, which was not a cloud.
A genius was enough.
After seeing Alan, Ai Li had no interest in the others.
Even the saintess of the Jade Fairy Mountain was the same.
Ai Li had a lazy personality. If he wanted to take in disciples, he would have taken in many over the thousands of years.
This time, he had only met Alan and the others on the way and was shocked by their talent.
In addition, he was already old and it was time to consider his future. Only then did he start to think about money.
After making arrangements for Alan, the only thing left was the Tower of Babel.
The Tower of Babel was actually in a separate dimension, and also a karst cave.
It was the same as the dimensional plane of the three-headed blue-winged sea dragon.
Inside was a primitive forest, where countless poisonous insects and demon beasts lived. The environment was a hundred times worse than the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
Those who participated in the trial would have their cultivation sealed, and they would have to survive in there for a month.
There was no food or fresh water. Everything had to be solved by themselves.
Under the premise that their cultivation was sealed, they would have to live by the mouths of poisonous insects and demon beasts for a month, and they would also have to search for food and fresh water. One could imagine how difficult it would be.
It was nothing new for all the newcomers who participated in the trial of the Tower of Babel to be wiped out.
Of course, the benefits of entering the inner sect directly after passing the trial were also enormous.
