The Lord of Nothingness fell silent for a moment, then his tone turned coaxing. "I can teach you how to reach the Demon God realm... As for the method of sending a clone to the Lower Realm, how about a different condition? For instance, I can help your student defeat all the Sons of Evil and become the supreme ruler of the mortal world!"
"He was just a fool I happened to enlighten. How could he sway my state of mind?"
Fang Yuan sneered. "Besides... you spread the seeds of evil with no good intentions. You wanted them to plunge the world into chaos, and even to produce a true king who could unite the mortal world and cause trouble for the Heavenly Court, delaying the Heavenly Emperor's means of refining Demon Gods... Whoever ultimately emerged as that king wouldn't affect your interests in the slightest..."
"Indeed. Mortal emperors call themselves Sons of Heaven, which links them to the Heavenly Emperor... But I cannot understand why the Heavenly Court turned a blind eye, even when I secretly intervened to overthrow the governments of several kingdoms..."
The Lord of Nothingness sighed. "That shows the Heavenly Emperor has reached an extremely crucial stage..."
No matter how eloquently he spoke, Fang Yuan remained silent.
"Very well... I can give you the method of sending a clone to the Lower Realm, along with my experience as a Demon God... But you must also help me rescue several Demon Gods at once, and give it everything you have!"
The Lord of Nothingness finally yielded. "I can give you my Demon God experience right away. As for the method of sending a clone to the Lower Realm, I'll give it to you after we reach the Heavenly Court... We'll seal it with a contract."
"Agreed!"
