He sensed in Long Haoyu a desire for battle.

Although he didn't know where this desire came from, it was something he really wanted to try.

only……

If the army doesn't withdraw, the enemy will have no chance to escape from the Exorcism Pass.

Such behavior does not align with his current desires and is insufficient to allow his inner desires to be fully expressed and unleashed.

The three demon gods fell silent, and upon hearing A Bao's arrangements, they promptly stepped out of their tents.

The long howl resounded in the ears of all the demon army troops marching towards Exorcism Pass.

The demon army, which was so aggressive just a moment ago, seemed determined to take over the Demon Exorcism Pass completely.

In that instant, everyone began to retreat, and all preparations for attack were forcibly suppressed.

……

Above the city wall of the Exorcism Pass.

Long Haoyu was having a deep conversation with Sheng Yue.

Suddenly seeing the demon army retreat, and also seeing the astonished soldiers on the city wall who were waiting in battle.

A thoughtful look flashed across Long Haoyu's brows.

"It seems that my uncle is indeed impeccable in terms of wisdom."

"Although his overall perspective is somewhat lacking, his decision to withdraw troops at this time is certainly related to what he is currently planning."

"Otherwise, given his arrogance, he would have already launched an attack."

With these thoughts swirling in his mind, Long Haoyu vaguely guessed what A Bao was planning to do.

but……

It's just a guess, and we can't be completely sure.

Saint Moon also gazed at this scene, watching the demon army retreat like a tide.

A barely perceptible cold glint flashed deep in his eyes: "Haoyu, it seems your Demon Hunter team is indeed being targeted."

"At that time, the Demon God Emperor was very interested in you and Hao Chen, and arranged for such a heaven-defying member of the Demon Dragon Clan to serve as the commander here."

"I'm afraid their real intentions are not what they seem. Attacking our Exorcism Pass may indeed be a pretext, but their true purpose is to target you!"

Long Haoyu listened quietly, not denying it.

The next Demon Emperor, first in line to the throne, second in line to the throne, and third in line to the throne.

The three heirs in line to the throne have all met at the Exorcism Pass, and it would be unreasonable for something not to happen between them.

As for what exactly will happen, we'll have to wait for the next steps to find out.

After finishing her reflections, Sheng Yue suddenly exhaled a heavy breath.

His tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed, and a decision slowly settled in his heart.

The spiritual energy carried Long Haoyu slowly down onto the city wall of Exorcism Pass.

A brilliant light shone from his aged eyes, and a low shout, loud enough for all the soldiers on the city wall to hear, rang out:

"Issue my decree to exorcise the military commander-in-chief and his adjutant within the pass."

"All members of the newly formed Demon Hunter Team, proceed to the military headquarters!"

"Emergency meeting! No mistakes allowed!"

Chapter 241. Saint Moon's Mad Decision

The atmosphere at the military headquarters was solemn.

A somber atmosphere enveloped the solemn hall.

Holy Spirit sat in his position as chief of staff, while his adjutants and many officers from the military camps took their seats.

At the head of the table sat Saint Moon with a serious expression, watching the crowd continuously entering the venue, his sharp eyes seeming to be brewing a massive plan.

Soon, the No. 1 Demon Hunter Team, led by Long Haoyu, arrived a step behind, and the other nine Demon Hunter Teams also entered the arena one after another.

"Sir, what are your plans?"

The Holy Spirit did not address the Holy Moon as grandfather, and since this is a military meeting, it is essential to temporarily set aside this relationship.

Upon hearing these questions, a sharp light flashed in his eyes as he wondered what Saint Moon was trying to achieve by suddenly convening such an emergency meeting.

Over the years, such emergency meetings have not been held many times, but each emergency meeting has resulted in something extraordinary.

Saint Moon did not immediately respond to Holy Spirit Heart's words, her cold gaze sweeping over Long Haoyu and the other new members of the Demon Hunter Team.

Unconsciously, the pressure inside the hall became even heavier.

As Long Haoyu sensed the change in pressure, he vaguely guessed the changes that Sheng Yue had made because of his analysis just now.

but……

He was still unable to determine what specific changes had occurred in the Holy Moon.

"The demon army suddenly attacked, but then suddenly withdrew, which means that it was just a feint."

"However, this is a show of force from the demon army to our many soldiers at Exorcism Pass, and also a show of force to our Assassin Temple!"

"Our Exorcism Pass, as one of the formidable passes of the human race, has stood in the Demon-Controlling Mountains for over six thousand years, and our Assassin's Temple has also been entrenched here for over six thousand years!"

"We absolutely cannot let this show of force go unpunished; we must make the demon army pay the price."

"Therefore, this Sin intends to launch a plan to hunt down the enemy's key generals, and to involve all newly recruited members of the Demon Hunter Corps!"

boom--

After Sheng Yue finished speaking,

For a moment, Holy Spirit Heart's eyes widened in disbelief as he listened to his grandfather's words.

What kind of joke is this?

The demon army has just given us a show of force, and now they're about to launch a counterattack?

Holy Spirit Heart wasn't unaware of this; he had the same idea. For example, when the demon army attacked before, his goal was to inflict a heavy blow on them once and for all, so that they would have to stop for a while.

only……

He couldn't understand why his grandfather had made all the members of the newly formed demon hunter team participate in this hunting plan.

If you want to hunt down an important general of the demon race, you must send out your most elite members. If all members of the demon hunting team are involved, you will perish completely in the demon territory if the hunt fails!

Many generals were also completely baffled by Sheng Yue's sudden arrangement, which was simply sending the newly recruited members of the Demon Hunter Group to their deaths!

Given the current situation, anyone undertaking such a mission would face an extremely high risk of death; it could even be described as a suicide squad.

"According to Long Haoyu, the leader of the No. 1 Demon Hunter Squad, the demon army has a new commander."

"Furthermore, based on some past events, this time the other side is targeting members of ten demon-hunting teams."

"This show of force is partly to intimidate our exorcism faction, and partly a unique way to target all new members of the demon-hunting team!"

"Therefore, it is necessary to get them all involved!"

A simple explanation of the Holy Moon.

His words carried an undeniable resolve.

“My lord, since such a possibility exists, then we…” The Holy Spirit was extremely anxious.

Saint Moon's expression was cold and stern. Before Saint Spirit Heart could finish speaking, she continued, "I understand what you want to say. Under normal circumstances, all members of the ten Demon Hunter teams should be protected."

"But Holy Spirit Heart, while you are considering these things, you should also consider that a strong, giant tree cannot grow in a greenhouse!"

"The members of the ten Demon Hunter teams are the future of our Temple Alliance many years from now, and they need to be able to stand on their own!"

"Excessive protection will prevent them from growing up properly!"

The Holy Spirit was speechless; his grandfather's words struck him like a heavy hammer blow to his heart.

Upon careful consideration, the reasoning is indeed as the Holy Spirit Heart stated: true top-tier experts cannot be cultivated in a greenhouse.

"Sir, why don't we discuss this further?"

At this moment, one of the Holy Spirit's adjutants spoke up: "This decision is too crazy; if we are not careful, we will be doomed."

"I believe that the final decision should be made after comprehensive discussion from all sides!"

Saint Moon listened silently, her brows furrowed tightly.

Following the adjutant Holy Spirit Heart, the other adjutants also expressed their own opinions.

Many military leaders also expressed their views on this matter, and without exception, they all disagreed with directly including newly recruited members of the Demon Hunter Group in the hunting plan at this time.

As for their own people carrying out the hunting plan, they didn't utter a single word of objection and remained very determined.

Sensing the emotions of the crowd, Sheng Yue rose from her seat, put her hands behind her back, and said calmly:

“None of us at the ninth rank have had a smooth journey to this point. Before we grew to the ninth rank, before we could truly hold down the fort for our Holy Temple Alliance.”

"Each of us has experienced countless deaths. It is because of these brushes with death that we have been able to get to where we are today!"

"Therefore, it is necessary for all members of the newly joined Demon Hunter Team to embark on this path, so that they can truly find their own path to becoming a strongman through constant trials."

"Furthermore, this is a task that we proactively assigned, so naturally, it will be under our advance planning and preparation, and we will provide them with more protection."

"If we don't involve them and instead assign them other tasks, we won't be able to provide timely assistance if an accident occurs. That would be a real regret!"

Then another set of words were spoken.

Saint Moon watched as the expressions of the many officials gradually changed.

His deep gaze swept over Long Haoyu and the others who were standing in the hall.

Seeing the diverse expressions on the faces of all the members of the Demon Hunter team, he took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:

"Everyone in the newly formed Demon Hunter team has one!"

"Do you guys have confidence?!"
