Divine Seal: From a Heavy Sword to Slicing Through the Holy Demon Continent

The many Mithril-based Knights all understood the purpose behind Gao Yingjie's order.

Gao Yingjie is not only the leader of the Demon Hunter team to which Long Haoyu and his group belong, but also the leader of all the Mithril Foundation Knights who came here this time.

Right now, Gao Yingjie is clearly planning to forcefully intervene in the military missions of the ten demon-hunting squads, even though this is indeed against the rules.

However, there was no way around it; Long Haoyu's abilities were too dazzling at this moment, and if he couldn't handle the situation properly, it could very likely cause further unnecessary trouble.

It's not impossible that the three great demons will descend once again!

This is already the rear of the demon army. If the descent of the three demon gods were to happen again...

Without a doubt, they all had to die here.

Silver rays of light rose from all directions, and in an instant, all the Mithril-based Knights were fully equipped with battle armor.

A powerful force swept over the demons in this grain transport team.

Ordinary demons don't have the monstrous ability to fight beyond their level like Long Haoyu. Against Gao Yingjie and the other ten seventh-tier knights with mithril-based battle armor, it was a one-sided massacre.

In an instant, a large number of demons perished here.

Neither the fifth-tier Emerald Twin Blade Demon nor the fifth-tier Demon Eye Sorcerer could withstand a single blow from Gao Yingjie and his companions.

Long Haoyu saw Gao Yingjie and the others make their move, and the power of the white beast's blood pact with him began to recede like a wave.

but……

Sensing the remaining power within him, he did not simply wait for the blood pact with the white beast to end.

Its eyes, still golden and purple, swept mercilessly across the grain transport team present.

He had not forgotten the real opportunity in this military mission. After scanning the battlefield, his eyes locked onto a carriage heavily guarded by soldiers.

Several fifth-tier emerald dual-wielding demons and demon-eyed sorcerers guarded the area. No matter how chaotic the fighting was around them, they remained motionless, clearly not daring to let anything inside the carriage go wrong.

"The light elemental spirits should be there."

"While the blood pact fusion still exists and there is still a little bit of power left, let's resolve everything here in one go."

"Killing a seventh-tier Bloodthirsty Beta is indeed a tremendous achievement, but it's not enough to kill demon bastards!"

Long Haoyu sighed slightly, and the purple-gold wings behind him suddenly trembled.

It's no longer like teleportation, but the speed is still incredibly ferocious.

The raised blade, gleaming with a chilling light, slashed at the emerald-green twin-sword demon and the demon-eyed sorcerer surrounding the heavily guarded carriage.

We can't let the demons take Ya Ting, that good girl, back like this.

Chapter 217. Every step in Chapter 217 is full of calculation.

"What's going on, Haoyu?"

Gao Yingjie was slightly surprised. He could clearly sense that the power that did not belong to Long Haoyu was rapidly dissipating from his body.

Under normal circumstances, the best course of action after this situation is to protect oneself rather than continue fighting the enemy.

However, after a brief moment of stunned silence, he suddenly realized what was happening, and his eyes widened considerably.

"Haoyu, this child, has he sensed that there are treasures in this place?"

Gao Yingjie was startled awake: "We were really careless. This grain transport team includes a seventh-level demon, and he is even a personal guard of the thirty-fifth pillar demon god. It would be impossible to send out such a demon without some good stuff."

Once he fully realized what was happening, Gao Yingjie's mind raced, and he immediately moved closer to Long Haoyu. Relying on his powerful seventh-tier strength, any demon that appeared beside him was swiftly and decisively killed.

Long Haoyu saw Gao Yingjie approaching him, but he did not stop his killing spree at all.

At this moment, he was on par with the seventh rank, and even stronger than ordinary seventh rank individuals, and his killing efficiency was faster and better than Gao Yingjie's.

With each strike of Wufeng, a demon was killed instantly, as easily as slicing melons and vegetables.

"found it!"

Long Haoyu had almost forgotten how many demons he had killed. He slaughtered another emerald-green dual-wielding demon and a demon-eyed sorcerer on the spot and saw the wooden box on the two fifth-tier demon guards.

The wooden box was very ordinary; at first glance, there was nothing strange about it. If it were thrown on the roadside, probably no one would give it a second glance.

Long Haoyu wouldn't be fooled by such superficial things, and he scooped the wooden box into his arms.

"The item has been found?"

Gao Yingjie approached Long Haoyu and saw Long Haoyu put the wooden box into his ring. He asked in a deep voice.

Long Haoyu hummed in agreement, and the last bit of power he had fused with through the blood pact with the white beast dissipated as if by unspoken agreement.

"withdraw!!"

Gao Yingjie roared at the surroundings, his deep voice reaching the ears of the other nine Mithril-based Knights.

Ignoring everything else, seeing that Long Haoyu's wings, which had been transformed from spiritual energy, had disappeared and he was falling to the ground, she landed on Long Haoyu's body in shock, hoisted him onto her shoulder, and quickly returned the way she had come.

The other nine Mithril-based Knights were also quick. The other members of the ten Demon Hunter groups also reacted, having already killed enough. Upon hearing the signal to retreat, they took off and began to return the way they came.

Every single one of them, who were as careful as they were on their way here, led by Gao Yingjie and the other ten Mithril Foundation Knights, is now returning as wildly as they were on their way back.

Including Yang Wenzhao, they also quickly retreated without caring about their image. Everyone was not stupid; they had all seen Long Haoyu's actions.

Given the current situation, if we're even a little bit too slow, we might really be kicking the bucket right here. As for other matters, we can discuss them separately after we return to the Exorcism Gate.

Because of the white beast and Haoyue, the three demon gods have now gone to pay homage to the Demon Emperor, and the other high-ranking demons have been ordered not to act rashly before they left.

Due to this unexpected turn of events, Gao Yingjie led Long Haoyu and his group to retreat very naturally. Just as they were about to return to the Demon Exorcising Pass, they startled everyone on the city wall.

Even from a great distance, the dazzling silver light was visible, and those on patrol and guarding the city thought they were seeing things.

After a brief moment of distraction, the city gates of Exorcism Pass swung open with a roar, allowing Gao Yingjie and his group to enter the city smoothly.

The members of the ten demon-hunting teams only breathed a sigh of relief after returning to the Demon Exorcism Pass.

"You can rest here for now!"

Gao Yingjie led Long Haoyu and his group back to the camp of the No. 1 Demon Hunter Squad. Looking at Long Haoyu, who was somewhat exhausted, he said in a deep voice, "You can report on this military mission after you have recovered!"

"Team leader, we killed so many demons this time, our merits should be off the charts, right?" At this moment, Lin Xin approached Gao Yingjie.

At the same time, Wang Yuanyuan, a battle maniac with an explosive greed for money, also came up: "Team leader, I remember you said before that all your merits this time would be divided equally among us, right?"

Gao Yingjie: "...My merits will be distributed equally among all of you three months from now, but not now."

As he spoke, Gao Yingjie looked at Lin Xin and said, "Military missions require all gains to be handed over to the military for the purpose of calculating military merit. If you want enough merit, then take out all the corpses of those Emerald Twin Blade Demons that you collected."

Lin Xin felt a chill run down his spine. Looking at Gao Yingjie's very serious expression, he said with some pain, "Team leader, these are all corpses I risked my life to retrieve from the battlefield."

Gao Yingjie ignored Lin Xin's funny expression and said very seriously, "That's the rule of military missions. What you gain on the battlefield is ultimately handed over to be used to calculate merits. If you want to keep your things, the merits will naturally not be as satisfactory as you expect."

Lin Xin hesitated for a moment, glancing at his teammates, including Long Haoyu. With a heavy heart, he took all the corpses of the Emerald Dual Blade Demons out of his ring.

"Team leader, these are all the corpses of the Emerald Twin Blade Demons I've gathered, along with some magic crystals. That's all I have left. We can't be left out of the merit points!"

Gao Yingjie waved his hand to collect all the corpses, then looked at Long Haoyu: "Haoyu, I didn't see what happened with that wooden box. You risked your life to get that thing, and what was inside..."

"Never mind, I don't know, I didn't see it. Anyway, having these corpses of the Emerald Twin Blade Demons is enough to settle your merits."

Gao Yingjie gritted his teeth, stood up, and made a move to go to the military headquarters to report on this military mission.

Long Haoyu remained silent and took the wooden box out of the ring on his own.

The wooden box was indeed not opened, but he knew very well what was inside.

Looking at the wooden box in his hand, he pondered for a moment and thought to himself, "Although I can't be as pure-hearted as Haochen, it's a done deal, so I can use it to do him a favor."

Firmly believing in his conviction, Long Haoyu handed the wooden box to Gao Yingjie: "Team leader, this is what we got from this mission. For a seventh-tier demon to guard it, it must be something very important. Our No. 1 Demon Hunter Team has no reason to keep it all to ourselves."

"Please hand this over to the Commander-in-Chief, team leader. If it contains any important battlefield intelligence, our Sergeant-level Demon Hunter Squadron One cannot bear such a responsibility!"

Gao Yingjie remained silent: "What if it's not battlefield intelligence, but a very precious treasure?"

Without hesitation, Long Haoyu replied, "Even if it might be a treasure, we can't rule out the possibility that it could be important military intelligence. I can distinguish right from wrong when it comes to matters of principle."

"If it really is a treasure, given our Demon Hunter team's achievements, we certainly won't only obtain one treasure this time. We can afford to gamble!"

Gao Yingjie nodded slightly, looking at Long Haoyu's very determined appearance and hearing Long Haoyu's powerful reply, and took a deep breath.

"Alright, I will hand over this wooden box to the Chief of Staff this time. How the Chief of Staff and the Assassin's Temple will handle the contents of this wooden box will be arranged by the military!"

Gao Yingjie answered Long Haoyu's question in a deep and serious voice, then turned and left with the wooden box, but as he left, he showed even greater respect for Long Haoyu.

Something guarded by a seventh-tier demon must be extraordinary, yet Long Haoyu can be so nonchalant; one has to admire him.

Watching Gao Yingjie leave, Long Haoyu smiled, a smile that caught the eye of Long Haochen.

Long Haochen cautiously approached Long Haoyu and whispered, "Brother, why do I always feel like you're thinking about something?"

Long Haoyu glanced thoughtfully at his younger brother. He hadn't expected his brother to be so perceptive. He smiled slightly and said, "Don't ask. You'll find out when the time comes."

Long Haochen was slightly surprised. Seeing that his older brother didn't seem to intend to continue speaking, he couldn't help but look in the direction where Gao Yingjie had left.

The events that had occurred in Qiling Valley resurfaced in his mind. With these memories in mind, Long Haochen glanced at Long Haoyu subtly.

"Does my brother's current state mean he knows what's in the wooden box?"

"It seems that there might actually be such a possibility!"

Chapter 218. The Supreme Prodigal Son of the Holy Demon

Military Department.

Assassin's Temple Headquarters.

Because the Rejuvenation Furnace was not used.

The military commander within the Exorcism Pass is still Holy Spirit Heart.

Guided by the Holy Spirit Heart, Gao Yingjie arrived at the Assassin Temple headquarters and met Sheng Yue.

"Grandfather, Brother Gao needs to speak with you."

"Haoyu and his team obtained a very important wooden box during this military mission, but they did not know what was inside. Fearing that it might be related to important military intelligence, they handed it over."

Holy Spirit looked at Holy Moon, who was sitting in the wicker chair, and reported in a deep voice.
