Long Haochen looked at him with concern and said, "It's nothing. You seemed a bit off, so I came to check on you. What's wrong?"
Huo Yuhao forced a smile and said, "I'm fine. My head was hurting a lot just now, but it's much better now. Thank you for your concern, Brother Long."
Long Haochen smiled slightly and said, "Speaking of which, I feel we are very similar. I had this feeling from the moment I saw you, Brother Huo. It's as if we were destined to meet and become friends."
Huo Yuhao wasn't as naive Long Haochen; he didn't trust anyone, including himself. He said, "Seeing Brother Haochen, I feel the same way."
Long Haochen may share similarities in personality with the previous Huo Yuhao —deeply affectionate and possessing leadership qualities—but the current Huo Yuhao is no longer the same person he once was.
Suddenly, Huo Yuhao, Yue Ye inside the carriage, and Long Haochen sensed something approaching, and there were quite a few of them, at least tens of thousands.
He thought to himself, "It seems that conflicts between the Demon Clan are quite common. The fact that so many people are targeting these two suggests that the Moon Demon Clan is a large and powerful family among the Demon Clan."
As for the girl who was following the Moon Demon Clan girl...
Her identity might be more interesting than that of the Moon Demon Clan girl; perhaps she's related to that Demon God Emperor.
According to the teacher, the Demon God Emperor is divided into several generations. The current Demon God Emperor is of unknown generation. There are Seventy-Two Demon God Pillars, the Demon God Emperor, and the Demon Clan.
Huo Yuhao then looked at Long Haochen beside him. Speaking of which, his teacher had mentioned the Child of Light, someone chosen by the light just like his teacher, who would later be chosen by the Goddess of Light. This senior brother should be one of them.
What am I then? The man chosen by ice? Or the man chosen by fate, the child of destiny? Or the man chosen by the Douluo Continent, the child of destiny?
My own prestige should be higher than this so-called Child of Light, and besides, I am the man chosen by my teacher, the Holy Necromancer, Electrolux.
In short, I'm neither envious nor not envious. I'm not incapable of manipulating elemental power; they are all elements with Ultimate Attribute.
I don't know how to compare her to the Goddess of Light. The Goddess of Light, according to my teacher, isn't anything special ( the Goddess of Light is just a symbol; I heard this from the Electrolux movie).
Yue Ye, now inside the carriage, instantly realized. "It seems there's a spy in the carriage; we're in danger."
She said to Leng You, who looked Leng Xiao and was also inside the carriage, "You stay in the carriage and obey my orders."
On the other side, Long Haochen was instructing everyone. "There are enemies. Be prepared!"
Huo Yuhao patted Long Haochen on the shoulder and said, "Brother Long, let me help you."
Long Haochen nodded. "Alright, then Brother Huo will stay right beside me."
Huo Yuhao Long Haochen, and the others have made all the preparations.
Just then, a white light suddenly appeared in front of the caravan, and the carriages were ready, forming a huge circular formation.
A guard of 500 men appeared around the convoy.
The earth trembled, the ground shook, and a sea of dark figures charged toward the Moon Night Merchant Group's carriage; it seemed this was indeed their destination.
Wang Yuanyuan stared in surprise at the approaching dark figure, then quickly said, "That's Demon Clan."
Long Haochen then spoke up, "No one should make any rash moves."
Huo Yuhao said to Long Haochen with amusement, "Brother Long, the Demon Clan is coming with great force; they probably seem interested in this place."
Long Haochen awkwardly said to Huo Yuhao, "Brother Huo, please stop making sarcastic remarks."
The Demon Clan army was approaching from afar, like dark clouds pressing down. In fact, Huo Yuhao and Long Haochen were both observing the girl in the white dress on the roof of the car.
Huo Yuhao's observation was perhaps a little different. There was absolutely no tense atmosphere; it was as if even a hundred thousand troops would be nothing but weeds in his eyes, let alone ten thousand. What he was concerned about was this girl. Just a moment ago, she had black hair, and suddenly it turned white. Could she even transform?
Long Haochen was drawn to the fact that the girl in the white dress, Yue Ye, was waving a pair of flags, one white and one red.
Soon, the wooden planks inside the carriage opened, and swarms of arrows shot out. Long Haochen and the others noticed—were these magic arrows?
The most basic magic arrow with a speed boost costs more than two gold coins each. What a waste that it's a one-time consumable! Otherwise, the other side would have been like Zhuge Liang borrowing arrows with straw boats, reaping a huge harvest. However, such a large sum of money also demonstrates the financial strength of this merchant guild.
Yue Ye now shines as he stands on the carriage, his cold eyes like frost. A white flag is lowered, a red flag held high above his head. He watches the approaching army.
Although the Moon Night Merchant Group doesn't have any experts above the sixth rank, their equipment is definitely the best available.
Yue Ye continued waving the flag, pointing it forward.
With a whoosh, a continuous stream of arrows was fired from this machine, nearly a thousand in total.
However, these magic arrows are limited; otherwise, they could riddle the enemy Demon Clan army with holes.
Currently, the opposing side is neither advancing nor retreating.
Leng Xiao also got out of the carriage and went to the Yue Ye spot on the roof.
"Sister Yue," a Sisi of unease flashed in Leng Xiao's eyes.
Yue Ye said to Leng Xiao, "I think we're in big trouble. Only three major tribes in Narik Province could mobilize an army of ten thousand to attack us."
Leng Xiao felt a little flustered and asked, "What do we do now?"
Yue Ye shared her current perspective. "Right now, we can only take the initiative, eliminate the immediate enemy, retrieve the magic arrows before the three major tribes can react, and then retreat to the Temple Alliance until the problems with the three major tribes are resolved before setting out again."
Seeing the carriage rushing ahead, Huo Yuhao exclaimed, "Damn it, what are they trying to do? Rushing ahead like that, are they going to pick up the flying arrows? Don't be ridiculous!"
Long Haochen said, "That would be terrible."
At this moment, Long Haochen said directly to everyone, "Everyone, change your equipment. We're preparing to break through." He took off his clothes and put on the Holy Spirit Armor.
Dian Yan said sternly, " Long Haochen, what are you trying to do? Do you want us to be exposed?"
Before he could finish speaking, before Long Haochen could even utter a word, a suffocating feeling descended upon Dian Yan. His vision went black, as if someone was choking him. Huo Yuhao's mental pressure pressed down on Dian Yan: "You'd better behave yourself. Brother Long is the commander, but I'm not. I can kill you anytime."
These words sent Sisi chill down the spines of Li Xin and the others.
When Dian Yan saw Huo Yuhao's blue eyes, it was as if she were seeing the most terrifying demon in the world.
"Yes, yes," he stammered and fell to the ground.
Huo Yuhao then addressed the group, saying, "This Dian Yan is deliberately trying to undermine Brother Long's prestige within the Demon Hunt Squad. How could someone like her easily submit to someone else? Although she's not an extremely evil person, right now, she's a complete fool. So, you can choose not to go; just stay here and wait to die."
"On the battlefield, I alone am enough; I alone can withstand an army of ten thousand."
These words surprised Li Xin and the others. Lu Xi then looked in the direction of Huo Yuhao and Long Haochen and said to everyone, "This friend is right. If he has such thoughts about carrying out Commander Long's orders, we can't fall behind him. Everyone, change your clothes."
No one hesitated at this point.
They said in unison, "Okay, let's go."
At this moment, Yue Ye felt something was very wrong. It seemed that the enemy was deliberately leading them into a trap; these guys were about to attack again.
The Demon Clan army poured out in full force; the sheer number of soldiers was terrifying.
