Divine Seal: God Descends, Holy Priest Riding a Black Dragon

Chapter 70 Dream Paradise
"You little rascal, I'm getting a bit jealous. I wish you were one of the Knights' Temple members," Han Qian said quietly.

"Hehe, Senior Han, you're trying to poach me right at the gates of the Priest's Temple. Aren't you afraid the saints of our Priest's Temple will give you a hard time?" Wen Tai said with a grin.

Han Qian was taken aback, clearly having also considered this connection.

"Hehe, hehe..." the old man chuckled foolishly.

After the demons retreated, the first thing the humans did upon taking over Zhennan Pass was to put out the fire.

It took three whole days for Zhennanguan to complete the entire process of cleaning up the battlefield, extinguishing the fire, and allowing the wounded to receive treatment.

The demon army only withdrew from Zhennan Pass, but did not retreat, and the war was not over.

After experiencing this intense battle, Wen Tai's inner spiritual power increased by several points, and his "Golden Body Technique" was pushed to the peak of the second level.

As for the team, the No. 21 Demon Hunter Team, which was at the general level, received great rewards. The Zhennanguan military awarded them 50,000 merit points, the most among all the Demon Hunter Teams.

Three days is enough time for him to recover all his spiritual power.

Of course, Wen Tai was not fully engaged in cultivation during this time. Instead, he was walking around Zhennan Pass, treating the wounded throughout the city.

Wentai's healing magic saved many wounded people who should have died.

"Wen Tai, the Paladin Commander sent me to inform you that you need to attend a meeting at the Priest Temple," Lu Xi said to Wen Tai.

"okay, I get it."

A milky white light shone in Wen Tai's hands, perfectly sculpting the arm of a warrior.

After treating the more seriously wounded, Wen Tai strode towards the direction of the priest's temple.

The main shrine of the priests' temple is located here, making it particularly easy to find.

However, upon arriving at the outer perimeter, Wen Tai discovered that the atmosphere in the main hall of the Priest's Temple was very solemn, with a constant stream of people coming and going. Judging from the decorations, people from all six temples were present.

Wen Tai also ran into Long Haochen; both of them were there to attend the meeting.

After the war, Long Haochen broke through to the sixth rank, becoming the second sixth-rank expert in the team.

The two quickly found the location of the main conference hall. Two guards stood at the door, and when they saw Wen Tai, their eyes immediately showed admiration.

"Your Excellency Wentai!"

"Your Excellency Wentai!"

The two men gave Wen Tai a warrior's salute.

During this period, Wen Tai frequently visited the pastor's temple, so they all recognized what he looked like.

The conference room door opens to the side. Inside, you'll find a screen depicting hundreds of people worshipping a deity, namely the Goddess of Light.

You have to walk around the screen to enter the actual meeting room.

The conference room is rectangular, with a dome that is over twenty meters high. Brilliant crystal chandeliers hang from the ceiling, and comfortable sofas line the floor. At the very front is a stage about one and a half meters high.

A group of people were sitting on the platform talking; clearly, that was where the meeting was being held.

There were at least thirty big shots sitting there, with Han Qian sitting to the side, not in the main seat.

Seated at the head of the table was an elderly man with white hair, dressed in a long white robe, whose profession was indiscernible. However, simply by sitting there quietly, he was the center of attention. "Didn't I say that we are not allowed to disturb our meeting?" The voice came from a priest in his forties, wearing a long golden robe, whose imposing face carried a hint of anger.

Long Haochen hurriedly stepped out from behind the screen, bowed towards the podium, and said, "Long Haochen, the leader of the 21st Demon Hunter Squad, is here to report for duty. The Holy Knight Commander summoned me to this meeting."

Wen Tai gave a simple pastoral salute beside him.

"You're Long Haochen? Then this gentleman next to you must be Wen Tai!" The middle-aged pastor's gaze then fell on Wen Tai.

Subsequently, most of the higher-ups turned their attention to Wen Tai, the Holy Son of the Priest Temple, a genius who killed an eighth-tier Moon Demon with his sixth-tier strength.

There was surprise and shock, but even more so, admiration!
It's truly remarkable that he has accomplished something so young that even many seventh-tier experts cannot.

“Yes,” Wen Tai nodded in agreement.

"Come sit here. Although this is our first meeting, I've actually known you for a long time," the middle-aged pastor said with a smile.

"Perfect timing! I'd like to take this opportunity to announce something to you all: barring any unforeseen circumstances, Wen Tai will be the sole candidate for Temple Master of our Pastors' Temple!"

Ling Xiao took this opportunity to finalize the matter completely.

A genius with 150 innate spiritual power, what flaws could he possibly have? Even if he squatted on Ling Xiao's head to poop, people would still praise him for his well-formed poop.

Upon hearing Ling Xiao's words, everyone gasped in shock. The only candidate—how old was this child?

But then they remembered the child's dazzling record of killing an eighth-level enemy while being a sixth-level enemy, and they were no longer surprised!
Han Qian also spoke up, "Since Brother Ling brought it up first, I won't hold back anymore. As long as this young brother Long Haochen lives on, he will be the sole heir of our Knight Temple."

The fact that both temples announced the existence of successors was quite shocking.

The white-haired old man at the head of the table nodded slightly and said, "Alright, you two, let's get back to business. Young man, come sit next to me."

The white-haired old man waved to Wen Tai.

No one objected. Since Wen Tai was the sole heir to the priesthood, it was only natural that he would be favored by the white-haired old man.

Ling Xiao said, "Let's continue the meeting."

"I will continue to report on the current situation. We have finished cleaning up the battlefield. This time, Zhennanguan suffered heavy losses. As the governor of Zhennanguan, I take full responsibility. I will report my poor command to the alliance!"

Han Qian sighed and said, "Brother Ling, how can this be your fault? The enemy is coming on strong, with all twelve demon gods present, and more than half of them are among the top thirty-six demon gods. I'm afraid no one of our strongholds can withstand such a lineup!"

This time, the Priest Temple suffered heavy losses. All the magic cannons at Zhennan Pass were destroyed, a third of the Priest Order was lost, and six Cardinal Priests of the eighth rank or above perished.

Ling Xiao was extremely agitated, and as she spoke, she slammed her hand hard on the table.

The white-haired old man frowned and said, "Ling Xiao, calm down. You are now the head of the priest's temple."

Hearing the white-haired old man's reprimand, Ling Xiao finally composed herself.

Although Zhennan Pass suffered heavy losses, the demons' losses will only be even greater!
In particular, the Moon Demon youth killed by Wen Tai seemed to be a Moon Demon nobleman, yet he died at Wen Tai's hands.

After everyone reviewed the situation, they finally understood why the demons attacked Zhennan Pass!

It turns out it was because of the Dream Paradise next to Zhennanguan.
