Long Xingyu: A Pity, Hao Chen's Talent Couldn't Let Him Kill Long Xuanye

In a daze, Long Xuanye recalled the mother of this life, Bai Yue.

Had she done this for him?

It seemed... not.

He and Long Haochen were twins. It was already difficult for their mother to give birth to them at once. From birth, she had to care for two crying infants simultaneously, busy from dawn till dusk.

As for him, with an adult soul inside, he never cried. He behaved exceptionally well and was sensible, even proactively helping his mother care for his younger brother, Long Haochen.

So, when he slept soundly at night, his mother's embrace and lullabies seemed to belong only to his younger brother, who needed more comfort.

He had never experienced them.

Long Xuanye admitted with some shame in his heart that being so gently coaxed by a little girl made him feel incredibly safe and comfortable.

It was a sense of belonging, of being completely cherished, that he had never felt before.

Finally, all his thoughts sank into the boundless darkness.

Outside the cave.

The vast Light Element and Dark Element stirred by Long Xuanye's awakening had not yet completely subsided.

The interwoven brilliance and darkness hung in the night sky like a magnificent aurora, lingering for a long time.

The celestial phenomenon did not dissipate with Long Xuanye's slumber.

It crossed mountains and forests, directly enveloping Odin Town not far away.

The night was deep. The town, which should have been silent, was now brightly lit and bustling with noise.

Countless townsfolk emerged from their homes, looking up at the sky with shock and confusion on their faces.

The night sky was torn apart, one half a Sea of Light of extreme purity, its Holy radiance illuminating the land and dispelling all gloom.

But deep within the light, there was a trace of almost imperceptible dark light spots, profound and deep.

"Heavens! What is this? A miracle?"

"Light and darkness intertwined... I've never heard of such a phenomenon!"

Among the crowd, several young men in standard Knight armor exchanged glances, their expressions excited.

"Could it be that a chosen one has awakened their Spiritual Power in our Odin Town?"

"Quick! Hurry and report to the Temple Deacon! Such a phenomenon is by no means ordinary!"

The clamor and discussion rose one after another, completely shattering the town's tranquility.

Meanwhile.

Within the "Holy Light Valley" managed by the Knight Temple.

Long Xingyu stood in the center of the valley, holding a "Holy Light Crystal" that emanated a warm glow in his hand.

He looked at Long Haochen, who stood straight before him, a look of satisfaction on his face.

Long Haochen's small hands nervously clenched the corners of his clothes.

He hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but look up and ask.

"Dad, after my awakening... will I be able to find my brother?"

These past few days, he had asked about Long Xuanye's whereabouts many times, but each time, he received only vague answers.

As the words fell, the gentle smile on Long Xingyu's face instantly faded a little.

A chilling glint flashed from the depths of his eyes.

He raised his hand, ruffled Long Haochen's soft hair, but his tone turned cold.

"Your brother's whereabouts are not something you should be asking about yet."

"When you awaken your Inner Spiritual Power and become strong enough, you will be qualified to know more."

He sneered inwardly.

That kid was probably long gone, food for Devil Beasts, not even a bone shard left.

A flicker of disappointment crossed Long Haochen's clear eyes, but he obediently closed them.

As Long Xingyu slowly pressed the "Holy Light Crystal" into his brow, the light element within the valley suddenly surged!

A brilliant golden pillar of light shot up into the sky!

Pure light element, devoid of any impurities, madly converged towards Long Haochen's body.

Within the light, specks of radiance condensed, transforming into countless dancing light feathers that fluttered down.

Beneath the light feathers, Long Xingyu gazed at the golden pillar of light that pierced the heavens and earth, feeling the pure spiritual power contained within, trembling with excitement.

"Good! Good! Good!"

He clenched his fists, his knuckles turning pale from excessive force.

Such Talent!

His future prospects are limitless!!

He even had the potential to become a Seal Knight. Demon God Emperor, you would never have imagined that the sharpest blade humanity would one day wield against you would come from your own bloodline!!

Long Xingyu was incredibly excited.

But the smile on his lips had not yet fully bloomed--

BOOM!!!

An energy fluctuation several times more terrifying than that within Holy Light Valley suddenly erupted from the horizon!

A terrifying pillar of light, more than three times thicker than Long Haochen's, shot up into the sky with boundless might! The extreme radiance almost burned a hole through the dark night sky!

The brilliant golden light within Holy Light Valley instantly dimmed before this new pillar of light.

Like the moon in the sky, making fireflies appear dim.

The ecstatic expression on Long Xingyu's face froze.

He abruptly looked up, towards the direction the pillar of light was coming from--that was the direction of Odin Town!

"What... what is this?!"

He cried out in a low voice, a barely perceptible tremor in his tone.

This spiritual power fluctuation... it was clearly the aura of an Innate Inner Spiritual Power awakening! But... but how could this intensity be so terrifying?!

He had originally thought that another peerless genius had emerged among humans, but the moment he thought of the words "Odin Town," a cloud of unease quietly surfaced in the depths of his heart.

An utterly absurd thought uncontrollably emerged from the deepest part of his heart.

Could it be... Long Xuanye?

"Impossible!"

Long Xingyu immediately extinguished this thought.

That spawn of evil should have long ago been torn to shreds by the Devil Beasts in the mountains!

His mind settled slightly, and he looked at Long Haochen, who was still receiving the baptism within the pillar of light, a flicker of regret in his eyes.

If he had known Haochen's Talent was so high... he should have kept that spawn of evil, Xuanye, back then.

Even if his Innate Inner Spiritual Power was high due to the Demon God Emperor's bloodline, it could never compare to Haochen's Child of Light physique!

Father and son killing each other...

How could it be as interesting as letting brothers with the same bloodline slaughter each other?

What a pity, truly a pity!

Long Xingyu's lips slowly curled into a sickly smile.

The smile on Long Xingyu's face grew more pronounced.

Manic and twisted.

Child of Light? The future hope of humanity?

No.

He was merely Long Xingyu's perfect tool for vengeance!

He had nurtured him, poured his heart and soul into him, not for the sake of humanity's righteousness.

But only so that one day, this sharpest of swords could personally pierce that Demon God Emperor!

Make him pay the most agonizing price for stealing my beloved away all those years ago!

Feng Xiu, the humiliation you brought me, I will have your son repay it a hundredfold, a thousandfold with his own hands!

As for this spawn of evil...

Long Xingyu glanced at Long Haochen, his eyes filled with a complex emotion.

It would be best if he perished together with his father.

On the desolate plains outside Odin Town, devilish qi permeated the air.

A group of low-level Dual-Blade Demons pointed at the light pillar in the sky, which had not yet completely dissipated, and let out piercing screams and chaotic howls.

"Quiet!"
