"Elder brother!"
Long Haoyu was deep in thought when Long Haochen's voice rang in his ear.
As brothers who grew up together, and both being very intelligent, even though Long Haoyu didn't say much, Long Haochen could still glean many clues from his older brother's reactions.
At this moment, Long Haoyu's sudden frown and deep thought made him feel uneasy, and he couldn't help but want to ask.
"Is there something you need?" Long Haoyu snapped out of his reverie, his voice softening as he asked with a smile.
Long Haochen's expression was complicated, and his azure eyes met his older brother's gaze without flinching. "Brother, are you alright? You seem to have something on your mind."
"What are you thinking about? When have I ever looked preoccupied?"
Long Haoyu concealed his true thoughts and said calmly, "What I was thinking about just now was because of the sudden sneak attack by the Three Great Demon Gods."
"So I'm just thinking about how to improve my strength, like what I told you before about Spirit Energy. Improving my strength is the most urgent task."
"Therefore, I plan to go into seclusion for a while. Only by improving my strength can I truly overcome Wave Breaker!"
Looking at Long Haochen Long Haoyu heavily in his heart and unconsciously clenched his fists.
After the Demon Hunt Squad Selection Competition ended, he was only Retainer Knight, but he eventually became the vice- Captain of the Rank 1 Demon Hunt Squad.
Such a status was not something a Retainer Knight could possess; he remembered some of the things Long Haoyu had said to him back then.
Nowadays...
Once he actually arrived on the Demon Race Battlefield, he often took command of the Demon Hunt Squad, and he could clearly see that his elder brother was cultivating his abilities in this area.
But the clearer he became about these things, the more pressure he felt on his shoulders.
Now, seeing Long Haoyu's reactions, he began to suspect many bad things.
"Brother, he still won't tell me the things he's really hiding!"
"It seems my strength is still insufficient. If my strength could truly help my brother, perhaps everything could be changed!"
"My brother is going into seclusion to improve his strength, and I should also go into seclusion to improve my strength. My brother has already given me so many cultivation resources, and I cannot let him down!"
Long Haochen remained steadfast in his decision, deciding not to press Long Haoyu about the things he was hiding, and silently made a choice.
At this moment, Saint Moon suddenly spoke up, " Haoyu, I know you are feeling a lot of pressure right now, and the things you have encountered in this Demon Hunt Squad Team Competition are beyond anything you have experienced before."
"But your great-grandfather still has something to tell you: don't put too much pressure on yourself at this time. This will be the last time!"
"This kind of thing will not happen again. My great-grandfather has already asked the Grand Elder of our Assassin Temple to go to the Holy Temple Alliance to request reinforcements!"
Reinforcements?!
Long Haoyu was slightly taken aback.
He looked at Saint Moon with a hint of surprise, never expecting Saint Moon to make such a decision.
After pondering the matter for a moment, Long Haoyu understood the meaning behind Saint Moon's words and solemnly gave Saint Moon a Knight's Salute.
"Great-grandfather, thank you for your trouble in this matter."
"I will remember your instructions, great-grandfather, and will never let you down!"
"But improving my strength is inevitable; it's the path we need to take anyway, so I'll go down and cultivate now!"
Saint Moon hummed in agreement, and seeing Long Haoyu's demeanor, her slight worry eased considerably.
Watching Long Haoyu descend from the city wall, her gaze met that of the Holy Heart Spirit.
"Grandfather, I have made all the arrangements for the repairs of Demon Extermination Pass after this battle!"
"Please rest assured, Grandfather!"
The Holy Heart Spirit reports proactively.
As the Military Chief of the Demon Extermination Pass, he could arrange all his duties without needing anyone's orders.
Saint Moon nodded. "Just make the arrangements. This battle was too sudden, so remember not to overlook anything."
"Similarly, we must pay close attention to the movements of the Demon Race. During the period when reinforcements are arriving, we must be on high alert!"
"Once reinforcements arrive, things should calm down!"
Saint Moon sighed softly, turned around, and headed towards the foot of the city wall.
The Holy Heart Spirit continues to be involved in the arrangement of many matters.
The grandfather and grandson had developed a considerable understanding on this matter.
Two days later.
The restoration work on the Demon Extermination Pass has been completed.
There were no signs of Demon Race attacking within two days.
However, the Demon Race did not attack, but powerful auras still descended upon the Demon Extermination Pass.
Two Divine Throne suddenly appeared above the Demon Extermination Pass, and the terrifying might of the Divine Seal Knight poured down from the dome.
Yang Haohan, the Temple Alliance Leader, sat on his throne, his face full of majesty as he looked down at everything below.
Long Xingyu, the Temple Master the Knight Temple, was sitting on his throne, a throne that symbolized slaughter.
Although his expression wasn't as dignified as Yang Haohan's, it still carried a sense of looking down from above.
However, while looking down at the situation below the Demon Extermination Pass, most eyes were drawn to the Demon Continent outside the Demon Extermination Pass.
Between the two Divine Throne, Yang Haoyu stood there, his figure slender, though he did not receive any aura enhancement from the Divine Throne.
But at this moment, the aura he exuded was even stronger than that of Yang Haohan and Long Xingyu, as immovable as a mountain!
Following the three, there were a series of figures surrounding them, totaling twelve.
Each figure radiated a rich golden light; none of them were Knights of the Knight Temple with their Adamantine Foundation Knight.
As these powerful auras appeared, many soldiers inside the Demon Extermination Pass looked up at the sky.
Seeing the arrival of the Divine Seal Knight and the arrival of the Adamantine Foundation Knight, everyone was astonished.
Saint Moon was also alarmed at this moment. She came out of her cultivation place, put her hands behind her back, and rose into the air. Looking at Long Xingyu and Yang Haohan who had come here, her pupils couldn't help but contract.
Xue Zhisheng returned from the Holy Temple Alliance and, upon seeing Saint Moon emerge, stepped forward and said, " Saint Moon, I have reported the matter to the Alliance Master, and many powerful figures from the Knight Temple have come to our aid!"
Saint Moon hummed in agreement. "I know, I didn't expect the Knight Temple to send so many powerful figures to provide support this time!"
Responding to Xue Zhisheng's words, Saint Moon tried her best to calm herself down and make her expression as natural as possible.
No matter how hard he tried, he just couldn't truly find inner peace.
There's no other reason than the sheer awe and shock of what I was seeing.
The twelve Adamantine Foundation Knight, the Divine Seal Knight of Judgment and Trial, and the Divine Seal Knight of Divine Seal Knight of Defense and Coordination, as well as Yang Haoyu, a veteran who has been famous for a long time.
" Knight Temple, as expected of Knight Temple, its confidence is truly extraordinary."
"Although it's about providing support, the appearance of such a powerful force all at once... what does that mean—"
"Why does it seem like the Knight Temple is trying to protect its own?"
