"Looks like I have to go buy some. I hope I can find all those things."

"I'll go with you. You're helping me, and I can't let you spend any money." Ye Qiuhan said quickly, fearing that Qian Lin would leave him alone.

Qian Lin showed a tangled expression. After thinking for a while, she nodded hesitantly, "Okay."

"Great!"

Looking at Ye Qiuhan who was so happy that she almost jumped up, Qian Lin sighed helplessly in his heart. This silly girl really didn't look like the future saint at all.

Time can indeed completely change a person.

This Ye Qiuhan is different from the Ye Qiuhan in the previous life, right? This is what Qian Lin knew rationally.

But emotionally, Qian Lin still couldn't accept being in the same room with the person who had killed him. Moreover, there was a high probability that the saint who had killed him had come back and was now hiding in this little girl's body, staring at him secretly.

Who knows, one day this guy might get in a bad mood and come with a sword to kill you. I can't afford the risk, so I'd better stay away from him.

After getting dressed, the two left the accommodation area and came to the city area not far from the dormitory area. Here, the students of Honghu Academy can buy almost everything they want, such as the essence and blood of spiritual beasts, precious medicinal materials, and kung fu secrets.

Of course, the things that can be sold here are of relatively low levels. After all, the students who practice in the academy are basically at the Peiyuan realm and do not need high-level materials to assist in their practice.

If you want more advanced materials, you can either join a sect or go out and buy them yourself. They are not available in the academy’s market anyway.

"Seven-Leaf Blood Lotus, Blurred Pollen, Skylight Flower, Sword Leaf Grass, Black Ice Bamboo, I want these five things." Qian Lin wrote down what he wanted on a piece of white paper, handed it to Ye Qiuhan, and earnestly instructed, "Come and tell me when you find these things. Don't think about buying them yourself. I'm afraid you'll be cheated by unscrupulous merchants."

Unscrupulous businessmen exist everywhere, even in Honghu Academy. There are many unscrupulous businessmen who sell inferior products as good ones or even use fake goods to deceive students.

The college's attitude towards these unscrupulous businessmen is also quite intriguing. Qian Lin feels that the college condones the existence of these unscrupulous businessmen.

It is possible that the college is still encouraging these unscrupulous businessmen to cheat students, probably thinking that if they suffer a little loss here now, they will bleed less when they go out to work.

"Oh, I see." Ye Qiuhan took the paper from Qian Lin and looked at the five materials on it with a puzzled expression on his face. "What use are these things when put together?"

"It's useless, it's just a symbol." Qian Lin shook her head. She would not tell Ye Qiuhan this secret.

Each of these five materials represents a major demonic sect. By mixing them together in a special way, they can produce a signal that can be recognized by all demonic practitioners. As long as the practitioner is not an ancient demon cultivator who popped out from the deep mountains and forests, this method can be used to determine the other party's identity.

Well, Qian Lin was once such an 'ancient demon cultivator'.

After being hunted down for many years by those guys from the evil sect as an undercover agent from the righteous sect, the misunderstanding was finally resolved and it was figured out that everyone was a cultivator of the evil sect and should be a family... That's weird!

By the time the misunderstanding was resolved, Qian Lin had already forged a blood feud with those demon sects! The demon sects don't care whether you are a demon sect or not, they only care whether you have provoked them.

Unfortunately, Qian Lin’s hatred value in their eyes... is still a little bit high.

After all, when Qian Lin was being hunted, he had to fight back, right? This time, he couldn't stop, and the fellow disciples of the demon cultivator who was killed also came to hunt Qian Lin, and then they fought back again, were chased, and fought back.

It’s a vicious cycle!

Not only am I being hunted down by the righteous, I’m also being hunted down by the evil. What sin have I committed?

Alas, the past is too hard to recall. Qian Lin shook his head, his eyes drifting to the stalls on both sides, trying to find the materials he needed.

"Hmm?" What made her happy was that this glance really allowed her to find the materials she wanted to buy.

There were a few small white flowers placed in small grids. Even though they were picked roughly, they still maintained good vitality, and the golden stamens seemed to be radiating a little light.

Skyflower? The color is pretty good.

"Boss, how much are these skyflowers?" Qian Lin asked the stall owner who was looking up at the sky.

The gray-haired middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties withdrew his gaze, glanced at Qian Lin, and snorted, "Buy a Skylight Flower? Five spirit stones for one."

Five spirit stones... You are treating me like a pig, right? Judging from the quality of the Skylight Flowers in your hand, if you put these flowers together, you will make a profit of one spirit stone!

"Don't treat me as a fool. These few skylight flowers are worth at most one spirit stone." Qian Lin laughed and retorted with his arms crossed.

When it comes to bargaining, she has never been afraid!

"Oh? It sounds like you're quite knowledgeable?" Qian Lin's words made the boss look surprised. He really thought of Qian Lin as a young lady who knew nothing, but he didn't expect to meet an expert.

"It's wrong to judge people by their appearance. I want these skylight flowers and a spirit stone. Do you have any objection?" Qian Lin asked, pointing at the small flowers.

The boss shook his head. The price was indeed fair. "Okay, but what do you want the skylight flowers for?"

"Of course it is useful. Why do you care so much about it as a salesperson?"

"I'm just curious... Do you need any black ice bamboo? I happen to have some here."

25. The Demon Lord decided to pretend

"Huh? Why didn't you ask me if I wanted sword leaf grass?" Qian Lin narrowed his eyes and immediately followed what the boss said.

Being able to jump directly from Mingguang Flower to Xuanbing Bamboo, this boss's identity is definitely abnormal. Ordinary people would not connect these two things together!

Ordinary magic practitioners have no idea that these five materials mixed together can form the special magic signal they know. They can only recognize the signal, but they don’t know where this signal comes from.

When Qian Lin said the three words "Sword Leaf Grass", the boss's expression changed again. He immediately lowered his voice and said another material in a serious tone, "Blurred Pollen?"

"Seven-Leaf Blood Lotus." Qian Lin felt a little shocked. He originally thought that Fairy Chang Ye was the only magic cultivator hidden in the academy. He didn't expect that he would meet a magic cultivator of such a high status just by strolling out.

This boss seems to have no cultivation, but from the fact that he knows those five materials, we can tell that his status in the magic world is definitely not low. He is a super magician who hid his identity and strength to sneak in!

What's the matter with the Chang Ye Fairy's state of mind? This guy is the real boss behind the scenes!

"I wonder where this young lady is from?" The boss's expression has become awe-inspiring. The secret code has been matched. This secret code is a new code that has just been used not long ago. Few people in the entire magic world know it.

Apart from those venerables, the only ones who knew the new code were the undercover agents in the key areas.

"Don't ask things that you shouldn't ask. Anyway, the target is different from yours." Qian Lin sneered, acting quite unkind.

But this attitude made the boss nod in approval. This is how a demon cultivator should be. This kind of unruly and disobedient person is like a demon. If the other party tells his purpose when he asks casually, can he be a ruthless demon?

"I just want to know your master..."

"This is not something you should know." Qian Lin said coldly after casually glancing at the boss.

The color of her deep blue eyes seemed to darken, and a tremendous momentum crushed the boss like a landslide.

This…what kind of feeling is this! The boss's face lost color in an instant. He stepped back a few steps in embarrassment, his heart filled with horror. Who on earth is this girl? She actually has such a terrifying spiritual power!

As we all know, the strength of spiritual awareness is positively correlated with the cultivator's cultivation level, and the strength of spiritual awareness that Qian Lin is now showing is even stronger than the boss's own superior, a veteran magic master!

Could it be that the person standing in front of me is also a demon master?

Why did she hide her identity and sneak into Honghu Academy like this? Is there some important plan?

Yes, in recent days some venerables seem to be in contact with each other, and it feels like some big move is about to take place. This little venerable may be lurking in the academy for this plan.

As for why she came here to lurk and I didn’t get the news?

ha?

She is a venerable! How can a mere grandmaster like me be qualified to ask her to come and tell me the news!

"I deserve to die, I hope Your Excellency can spare my life!" As they were in the downtown area, the boss could not make any big movements or loud noises. He could only beg for mercy in a low voice under the pressure of Qian Lin's spiritual sense.

"Hmph, you're lucky." Qian Lin didn't really think about killing the boss here, she didn't have the strength to do so.

She was just bluffing just now, imitating the spiritual pressure she had at her peak. In fact, this spiritual pressure had no lethality at all.

But the boss was directly frightened, fearing that Qian Lin would just rush to kill him here without caring about anything. This idea was quite normal, after all, those powerful demons all had such a violent temper.

When they encounter something that doesn't go their way, they will kill people. When they kill people, they don't care how great your achievements have been before. They will just kill you if they don't like you.

"Except for the Skylight Flower, you should have all the other materials here, right?"

The boss, who felt like he had just walked through the gates of hell, wiped the cold sweat off his face and replied tremblingly, "I only have sword-leaf grass here, but I know where to find the other three..."

Before the boss could finish his words, a clear voice from not far away interrupted him. A black-haired girl in a light green dress ran towards Qian Lin happily, shouting as she ran: "Qian Lin, I found the things you wanted!"

This girl, can't she keep her voice down? Qian Lin's face suddenly showed a trace of helplessness. She glared at the boss first, signaling him not to move, and to talk to him about other things after she dealt with Ye Qiuhan.

The boss immediately nodded in understanding, "I know, I know, this is to hide one's identity. Your Excellency is really dedicated to his duties. He plays the role of the student of Honghu Academy so perfectly. He doesn't have that kind of ridiculous temperament at all."

Look at the expression on His Excellency's face now, so natural, so impeccable, no different from an ordinary student. And listen to how His Excellency is speaking now, wow, he is completely on the same channel with the other party. This must have been achieved by doing a lot of homework!

His Majesty must have prepared for a long time before coming here to lurk. And how could a small person like him know about a plan that could take such a long time for a Venerable to prepare?

Qian Lin had never expected that her image in the mind of this evil boss would become so great. She was now judging whether the materials found by Ye Qiuhan were real.

"According to your description, the black ice bamboo you found is probably just an ordinary bamboo soaked in ice spiritual energy. The sword-leaf grass is even more outrageous. It's just a weed that grows a little straighter, right?" After making a whole circle of judgments, Qian Lin was surprised to find that none of the things Ye Qiuhan found were correct. The merchants in Honghu Academy are too cunning. Are the proportion of genuine goods only one-tenth?

Thinking of this, she cast another inquiring look at the undercover boss of the Demonic Path.

The boss immediately understood what Qian Lin meant, and said with a straight face, "The goods here are 100% genuine, there are absolutely no fakes!"

After all, he was here undercover, not to make money, so he naturally didn't need to cheat like other unscrupulous businessmen. For him, selling fake goods would easily lead to disputes, and his identity would not withstand close scrutiny.

It would be funny if I exposed my identity for a few spirit stones.

26. The Demon Lord's Determination

It's a hellish joke that an undercover demon is the most honest among these businessmen.

"If the young lady wants those materials, I guarantee that I can collect them within one day." The undercover boss of the magic sect patted his chest, indicating that he would take care of everything.

For the sake of the Venerable's great plan, it doesn't matter if he is a little tired or a little hard. If this little bit of hard work can win the Venerable's favor, then he can ascend to heaven on the spot!

What was his purpose in going undercover? Wasn’t it just to earn some merit so that the Demon Lord would notice him?

Now a venerable has appeared before him, and it seems that he needs a little help. Isn't this the best time to show his value?

He would be a fool not to seize this opportunity!

"Well, I live here now. After you collect the things, just send them to my place." Seeing that the boss was so proactive, Qian Lin naturally would not refuse the boss's kindness.

What? You said this guy is an undercover agent of the Demon Sect and can't be believed?

Are you kidding? Qian Lin is now also playing the role of an undercover agent of the magic sect. When undercovers meet undercovers, can they still trick each other?

As for whether her identity would be exposed, Qian Lin was even less worried about this. The only difference between her and the demons now was that she was now practicing the Qian family's skills, not those of the demons.

In other aspects, she is a genuine magician. In fact, the current magician does not seem like a real magician in her eyes!

What is the gold content of the Demonic Path Supreme? This is the gold content of the Demonic Path Supreme!

After leaving the task of collecting materials to the undercover boss of the Demonic Path, Qian Lin left the shop with Ye Qiuhan, who looked curious, and wandered casually on the street.

"Qian Lin, why do you trust that boss so much?" Seeing that Qian Lin had no intention of explaining himself, Ye Qiuhan could only reach out and tug at the corner of Qian Lin's clothes and asked in a low voice.

Qian Lin, who was walking in front with her hands behind her back, stopped. She turned around to look at Ye Qiuhan, who was confused, and said in a teasing tone, "Because I think he is a person who would not lie."

"Eh?!"

Obviously, this answer could not satisfy Ye Qiuhan. What she wanted to know was a more accurate reason, rather than Qian Lin's explanation which was obviously a lie.

Her intuition told her that Qian Lin was hiding something from her, and this thing might be very important!

"Don't think too much. Anyway, he can be trusted for the time being. At least he is more trustworthy when it comes to buying things for me." Qian Lin shook his head and continued walking forward.

Ye Qiuhan stomped his feet in anger, quickly caught up with Qian Lin, and then stared at Qian Lin's face with an inquiring look, trying to pry open Qian Lin's mouth in this way.

But who is Qian Lin? He is the supreme master of the magic world! Can Ye Qiuhan's little trick make Qian Lin soft-hearted?

Just think about it and you will know it is impossible. Qian Lin's heart aches at best, but it is impossible for him to be soft-hearted!

I, Qian Lin, will never easily forget the revenge for my death!

But this silly girl's gaze was so hot that Qian Lin couldn't help but want to cover half of his face with his hands.

"I say, can you please stop looking at me like that? It makes me feel like I'm bullying you."

Ye Qiuhan's cute little face was round and plump, and her bright dark eyes were fixed on Qian Lin. After hearing Qian Lin's words, her eyes revealed an emotion of "Isn't it so?"

Is this Ye Qiuhan fake? How could the cold and aloof Yaochi Saintess, who was like an iceberg, be like this when she was a child?

Qian Lin is now really curious about what Ye Qiuhan will experience in the future to turn this silly girl into the cold and powerful saint.

"I really can't tell you about this. Don't look at me like that. I can't tell you." Do you want to tell Ye Qiuhan about the undercover agent of the Demonic Path? Qian Lin didn't intend to tell Ye Qiuhan that the boss just now was an undercover agent of the Demonic Path.

There are several reasons. First of all, she has gained the trust of the boss. In the boss's eyes, she is already an undercover agent of the devil like him.

As an undercover agent of the evil sect, Qian Lin will be able to obtain a steady stream of information related to the evil sect from the boss. Combined with the memories of his previous life, he will be able to survive more easily in future major crises.

With the boss as a 'colleague', it would be more convenient for Qian Lin to purchase some things in the future. As a student, he certainly couldn't compare with the boss in terms of connections.

Asking the boss to find some materials is much more convenient than Qian Lin finding them by himself!

To put it simply, Qian Lin fell in love with this tool of the magic path. She didn't want to be a magic path in this life, but she was still happy to use the people of the magic path.
