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

The related issues arising from this battle will certainly require a lot of time to resolve.

After suppressing such thoughts, Long Haoyu looked at Cai'er after her transformation, feeling the coldness and beauty emanating from her, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Cai'er, let's go back!"

"Hmm~"

Cai'er whispered, her coldness fading away, and naturally extended her delicate hand toward Long Haoyu.

Watching Long Haoyu and Cai'er leave, Sheng Yue frowned once again, her mind sinking into the battle between Long Haoyu and A Bao.

Xue Zhisheng was slightly puzzled: "Shengyue, why are we all unaware of this little guy's combat mission number one?"

Saint Moon responded, "This was a sudden decision. However, an unexpected event occurred during this mission. Long Haoyu's Military Mission No. 1 failed, but there were unexpected gains."

As Sheng Yue spoke, she relayed all the information that Gao Yingjie had reported to Xue Zhisheng.

Xue Zhisheng listened silently, and when he heard that the person who fought Long Haoyu was A Bao, the first in line to inherit the throne of the Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon Clan, his eyes were filled with shock.

Amidst such shock, Xue Zhisheng watched Cai'er and Long Haoyu's departing figures, a profound light beginning to shine in the depths of his eyes.

"Old Xue, what are you thinking about?" Sheng Yue noticed Xue Zhisheng's change and asked in a deep voice.

Xue Zhisheng snapped out of his reverie: "It's nothing, I was just thinking about when to start implementing what you just mentioned?"

Saint Moon paused for a moment, then said, "It should be soon, but there are many problems in handling this matter, especially since that senior has already been born."

"If that senior forces his way in, our Assassin's Temple will have no chance of success, and our Assassin's Temple may be completely wiped out as a result."

Xue Zhisheng's brows furrowed immediately, and his thin body exuded a cold and fierce aura: "You've tarnished our Assassin's Temple? Which senior are you talking about?"

"Elder Xue, you also know that one, Senior Yang Haoyu from the Knights' Temple." Saint Moon replied, "You know his strength, so..."

Xue Zhisheng's lips twitched involuntarily as he slowly concealed himself into the void with his hands behind his back.

After a long while, a voice came from the void: "So it was him, but this is something you, the Palace Master, should handle!"

"I am the chief elder of the Assassin's Temple. I will ensure that the elders of the council support you in this matter. You can handle the rest as you see fit."

The ethereal sound slowly faded away, and Xue Zhisheng's figure had completely left the place.

Sheng Yue stared dumbfounded in the direction Xue Zhisheng had left. Although she could no longer catch a trace of Xue Zhisheng, she couldn't suppress the urge to spit out a mouthful of blood.

Mr. Xue, what do you mean by this? Upon hearing the name of Senior Yang Haoyu, you immediately chose to step down and leave everything else to me?

Suppressing her frustration, Sheng Yue understood Xue Zhisheng's thoughts and immediately felt a headache coming on.

Suppressing her headache, Sheng Yue looked again in the direction where Long Haoyu and Cai'er had disappeared, her tone somewhat uncertain.

"This is really a difficult situation. Haoyu, you little rascal, you keep surprising people. I had calmed down, but you've stirred things up again."

“But now that all the ancient relics of your Knights' Temple have reappeared, isn’t this making things more difficult for your great-grandfather? The chances of this succeeding…”

"Alright, as the saying goes, nothing ventured, nothing gained. For the sake of you, my great-grandfather, I guess I'll have to risk everything."

"I've gone all out, so it shouldn't be a big problem, right?"

270. Chapter 269 The Fate of the Heaven-Defying Demonic Dragon

Saint Moon was a little unsure, muttering to herself about these things, feeling overwhelmed.

Looking again in the direction where Long Haoyu and Cai'er had left, his expression gradually relaxed, and he let out a heavy sigh.

With his hands behind his back, he paced around for a short while before his figure slowly disappeared into nothingness, just like someone on an assassination mission.

In the deep void, only after his figure had vanished did a voice slowly drift out again:

"Let's not rush into dealing with this matter yet. Right now, the most important thing is still the matter of finding the first in line to inherit the throne of the Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon Clan!"

"One headache after another. We can't just kill him directly, but if we don't kill him, we still have to deal with this not-so-simple guy."

"As for Haoyu's matter, we should deal with it slowly after all these things have been settled. These matters are at most internal matters of our six holy temples."

"I refuse to believe it! That old turtle Yang Haohan can really bring down our Assassin's Temple!"

The tone was initially somewhat dejected, but later it rose considerably, as if the speaker was trying to cheer themselves up.

As these words dissipated into nothingness, this trial ground of the Reincarnation Spirit Furnace suddenly became extremely quiet, as if no one had ever been here before.

……

the other side.

Long Haoyu led Cai'er back to their camp.

As soon as the two returned, they saw Long Haochen and his men surrounded by a large number of soldiers from the First Battalion.

Zhang Hairong, the battalion commander of the first battalion, was also present. At this moment, everyone's face was filled with excitement, showing extreme excitement.

"Brother, you're back?" Long Haochen immediately broke free from the crowd when he saw Long Haoyu and Cai'er return.

Long Haoyu hummed in agreement, then looked at Zhang Hairong and the others with a hint of confusion: "Haochen, what kind of mission has been assigned this time?"

Long Haochen replied, "It's nothing. The battalion commander and the others found out about your battle, so they came to congratulate us."

No sooner had Long Haochen finished speaking than Zhang Hairong stepped forward and punched Long Haoyu in the chest: "Good lad, you guys really give our battalion commander a lot of face!"

Long Haoyu smiled slightly: "Battalion Commander, you're joking. Our mission this time has failed, so what's there to brag about?"

Zhang Hairong glared at him: "What nonsense are you spouting? To be able to defeat a demon commander even when you're in the same realm, your future is definitely limitless!"

“Not bad, not bad. When you become a Divine Seal Knight in the future, I, Zhang Hairong, can also brag to people that the Divine Seal Knight named Long Haoyu used to be a lowly soldier under my command.”

Long Haoyu: "..."

Zhang Hairong's sudden remark left him completely bewildered.

After a brief silence, he continued to laugh. The qualities that Zhang Hairong displayed were very much in line with what one should expect in the military.

Such an atmosphere was quite comforting, and he cherished it.

"Then I will definitely invite you, Battalion Commander, for a drink. I will make sure you are given the best face!" Long Haoyu replied with a smile.

Zhang Hairong's eyes lit up: "Good lad, this is really intriguing. I'll have to remember this."

"Putting everything else aside, I never thought I could leave the battlefield alive. But because of what you said, I'm willing to risk everything to survive!"

Long Haoyu hummed in agreement, exchanged a few pleasantries with Zhang Hairong, and then beckoned Long Haochen and the others back to their tents.

Lin Xin, Sima Xian, Long Haochen and the others followed into the tent. After returning to the tent, they all felt relieved.

In an instant, a solemn expression appeared on everyone's face.

They were all firsthand witnesses to the battle with A Bao, and they also saw Long Haoyu's weakness along the way.

They even learned about the strange things that happened after they returned, all from Long Haochen.

"Boss, are you alright?" Lin Xin asked with concern.

As Lin Xin finished speaking, Li Xin followed up with, "Haoyu, I know your personality, but if anything really happens, don't bear it all by yourself. You must tell us all!"

Everyone asked with concern, and the worry in their eyes was genuine.

Long Haoyu waved his hand: "Sister Xin'er, Lin Xin, Hao Chen, Sima Xian, Chen Ying'er, and Sister Yuan Yuan, I'm fine, you don't need to worry."

"I called you all in here not to talk about my own affairs, but to talk about our encounter with the Demon Commander."

Long Haochen's expression immediately turned serious, and Lin Xin and the others also stopped talking. Knowing what kind of person Long Haoyu was, they focused all their attention on what Long Haoyu was about to say.

Seeing these reactions, Long Haoyu continued, "If that demon commander could target us the first time, then there will definitely be a second time."

"Therefore, the unexpected events that occurred in this mission may lead to unexpected events in the missions we will be carrying out in the next two months."

"Everyone must keep this in mind. Any mistake on the battlefield could cost us our lives. Do you understand?!"

The crowd remained silent, but their expressions revealed all their answers.

After nodding firmly to Long Haoyu, everyone sat cross-legged in their tents and, without any further words, began to cultivate and improve themselves.

They had all witnessed the battle between Long Haoyu and A Bao, and although they were all members of the same demon-hunting team, they were unable to help in the fight.

Such an experience was very upsetting for them.

Improving their strength rapidly has become a major pursuit for them at this moment.

Long Haoyu did not stop everyone from doing these things. Improving strength was definitely necessary, as more strength meant more ability to survive on the battlefield.

After everyone started cultivating, Long Haoyu glanced at Cai'er and said, "Cai'er, you should also get used to your new abilities after this transformation. When there are missions in the future, we can try to exceed the requirements!"

Cai'er nodded: "I know, then I'll start cultivating too!"

Cai'er is a typical person of action. After responding to these words, she also began to cultivate.

The upgrading of the Reincarnation Furnace does indeed require a certain period of adjustment; it needs to be fully adapted to before it can be improved.

Long Haoyu did not disturb everyone's cultivation. He sat quietly beside them, his mind filled with memories of his previous experience of forcibly breaking into the Hell Path.

"This time, I made a considerable gain by forcing my way into the Hell Path. I have already mastered three of the six paths, and the power of unifying the three paths should be even stronger."

"If my uncle continues to keep an eye on me, then perhaps the next battle will bring him an even bigger surprise!"

"But I wonder how they'll target us next!"

Long Haoyu murmured to himself.

As he whispered these things, he began to imagine what the future might hold.

It was a certainty that A Bao would continue to target their Demon Hunter team. In the last battle, he was certain that A Bao knew the secret that he also possessed the bloodline of the Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon Clan.

Under such circumstances, inaction is the least likely course of action.

Among the direct descendants of the Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon Clan, there is a mutual—

A fateful struggle is inevitable!

The demon race is cruel.

The strong rise, the weak fall – this is the ironclad rule of cruelty.
