Wang Ke deftly pocketed the money, and the room beca eerily silent for a mont.
Mo Sanshan put on a black face while the Demon Sovereign gazed fixedly at Wang Ke, as though wanting to see why Wang Ke was that shaless.
After noticing the strange looks given by the other two, Wang Ke gulped so saliva and took out a mirror to look at himself through it.
"I don't have anything on my face! Why are you looking at like this?" Wang Ke pushed the protruding nose hairs back into his nostrils while he examined his reflection.
Mo Sanshan: ".....................!"
The Demon Sovereign took a deep breath, trying to suppress his impulse to beat Wang Ke to a pulp; then, he turned his back to his two subordinates and asked, "Mo Sanshan, you asked to co here. Does that an you have so leads related to your investigation?"
Wang Ke was surprised. The Demon Sovereign ca because Mo Sanshan called him over?
"Yes, we have so leads. I would like to invite the Demon Sovereign to witness it together!" Mo Sanshan reported respectfully.
"Oh?"
"Since the Demon Sovereign ordered to investigate the opposing faction inside the demonic sect, I released Tong An'an as bait to find more of their sympathizers. The first suspect is Zi Bufan!" Mo Sanshan explained.
"Third Parlor Lord, Zi Bufan?" The Demon Sovereign narrowed his eyes.
Mo Sanshan continued, "Yes, back when Wang Ke captured Tong An'an, he wanted Zhu Hongyi to hand Tong An'an to you. But Zi Bufan interjected and took Tong An'an away. I also discovered that Zi Bufan released Tong An'an; she's definitely suspicious!"

Their leader asked, "Wang Ke, is Mo Sanshan right?"
Confidence was written all over Mo Sanshan's face. What I said is nothing but the truth.
"That's not right!" Wang Ke said.
Mo Sanshan's face froze. "Whats not right? Wang Ke, do you think I couldn't get my ears in the Qing Capital's royal palace to catch what you said that day!"
Wang Ke then explained, "Demon Sovereign, Zi Bufan indeed asked for Tong An'an, but the reason is not that simple! She promised she would help invite you to participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony for my God Wang Company. She also said she would take part in the event alongside you, Demon Sovereign. That is why I agreed to hand Tong An'an over to her!"
Mo Sanshan had a strange look on his face.
Their great leader was also taken aback. "Ribbon-cutting?"
"Yeah!" Wang Ke said before explaining further, "Demon Sovereign, you certainly know of it. The God Wang Tower being built here, in the Dragon Cultivation Town, is to serve the demonic sect disciples. This tower is a grand milestone and will surely shake the entire Ten-thousand Great Mountains! Zi Bufan also felt that this tower had an extraordinary aning behind it, that is why she promised to extend the invitation to you, to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony. I'm only a Branch Lord, after all; I can't jump the command chain and send you the invitation directly. That's why she decided to help . And I really felt it was really thoughtful on her part; Tong An'an is nothing when compared to what I would get in return! Thats why I was willing to do the trade. A while before, I also surrendered the guy to Mo Sanshan in exchange for a favor. It's not difficult to capture him anyways; if she happens to lose him, I can just capture him again!"
"Is Tong An'an that easy to catch?" Mo Sanshan asked in irritation.
Wang Ke was a little surprised by the question, "Isn't he, though? I caught him four tis already! Piece of cake!"
Mo Sanshan: ".....................!"
Damn. Tong An'an is nuts. Why does he always fall into Wang Ke's hands? Now I don't even have a reason to push back against Wang Ke!
The Demon Sovereign looked doubtful. "Who said I was going to cut the ribbon for you?"
"No one did," Wang Ke answered, "Zi Bufan only promised she would try talking you into doing it. I really don't know where she gets that kind of confidence!"
The Demon Sovereign: ".......................!"
Fortunately, Zi Bufan was not there to prove him wrong. If she were to hear Wang Ke's words she would surely burst into a fit of rage and slap the crap out of him. Who promised you to convince the Demon Sovereign? Didn't you say that I only have to ntion it? How did it beco 'convince'?
"Demon Sovereign, you don't have to rush into making a choice. Take your ti. God Wang Tower is going to take a long ti to build anyway. I promise you! It wont be any less grand than the one at the Wolf Cultivation Town!" Wang Ke said as he patted his chest confidently.
The Demon Sovereign: ".......................!"
You must be nuts! Why would I co to cut the ribbon for you? Dream on!
Mo Sanshan said, "Wang Ke, whatever he said just now, isn't it the sa as what I said?"
Wang Ke rebutted, "How is that the sa? Mo Sanshan, you only gave a bad summary of what happened! That's not the way to report to the Demon Sovereign! You need to work on defining the details! You can't just ntion the parts that are beneficial to you; you have to recount the whole event with an objective eye! Let the Demon Sovereign decide on the matter on his own; he doesn't need your help to make a proper judgnt!"
Mo Sanshan felt frustrated after hearing that. Bullsh*t! I summarized the main points to the Demon Sovereign! What has your God Wang Tower's ribbon-cutting got to do with what I was reporting? Youre obviously smuggling your own agenda into the conversation!
And so, Mo Sanshan continued reporting respectfully, "Demon Sovereign, it was indeed confird that Zi Bufan released Tong An'an. I also found out that Zi Bufan went to the Qing Capital to capture the draconic ley line, in preparation for the upcoming Dragon Gate Assembly! They might have a big plan!"
"Oh?" said the Demon Sovereign.
Mo Sanshan continued, "Once the ley line dragon was captured, Zi Bufan didnt transport the thing personally, showing that she's not deeply concerned about it. My guess is that there are other Parlor Lords involved in the matter. The upcoming Dragon Gate Assembly could be an important part of their plans. I'm not sure about the specifics, but I can sense that things are not going to be that simple this ti around! It could be a trigger to make a move against you, Demon Sovereign!"
"The Dragon Gate Assembly? The ley line gold dragon?" the Demon Sovereign muttered.
"Yes, Demon Sovereign. Since youre here, I would like to add that the venue for the assembly is of vital importance, and I think it's inappropriate for Wang Ke to build his tower on such contested grounds. To avoid our judgnt from becoming muddled, I would like to request the Demon Sovereign to give the order to demolish Wang Ke's tower; this is to prevent all our plans from going to waste!" said Mo Sanshan in a stern voice.
The Demon Sovereign looked at the tower in the distance, imdiately making Wang Ke feel anxious.
"Mo Sanshan, what do you an by this? I'm constructing this tower to serve our demonic sect disciples; what's wrong with that? I've already built it to the twentieth floor, and it is only now that you want to destroy it? What will the demonic disciples think of ?" said the angry Wang Ke.
You must be joking! Ive already spent a fortune and plenty of resources, and I'm relying on the tower shower with cash. Now you want it demolished because it's inappropriate? No way!
