The enormous loss was something he absolutely could not afford to bear.

"Long Haoyu, you've won this battle again!"

"I have kept my promise and ordered the withdrawal of troops. We will seek another opportunity to fight in the future!"

With his back to Long Haoyu, A Bao sensed Long Haoyu's frantic recovery, left after saying those words, and departed in the direction where An Luoxian and the three demon gods had gone.

At the same time, the Heaven-Defying Demonic Dragon Pillar also rose from the ground and retreated beside him, just like a young demon emperor walking on the earth.

In every aspect, he seems to be a true demon ruler!

Saint Moon's expression was very complicated. Watching the three demon gods and A Bao leave, he didn't know how to comment for a moment.

But at this point, he didn't have much time to continue pondering these matters.

Suppressing her many thoughts, Sheng Yue flashed to Long Haoyu's side: "Haoyu, are you alright?"

Seeing the change in the battle, Long Haoyu dispelled his use of the Asura Path's power and glanced again in the direction A Bao had left: "Great-grandfather, I'm fine. It seems I've made a big fuss."

"It's not that you've made a big fuss, but that the other party came prepared. Don't stay outside for now, go back with your great-grandfather!"

Sheng Yue didn't say much. Having almost witnessed Long Haoyu's death, he didn't want to see Long Haoyu continue to linger outside the Exorcism Pass.

Long Haoyu did not refuse and allowed Sheng Yue to lead him back to the Exorcism Pass.

The battlefield is inherently unpredictable.

The battle at the ninth rank ended without a clear conclusion.

Many soldiers from the Exorcism Pass returned to the city walls.

Many powerful figures from the local area of ​​the Exorcist Pass have returned, but they have not completely relaxed their efforts.

The three demon gods have openly violated the agreement, so they dare not let their guard down at this time.

"Haoyu!"

When Cai'er saw Long Haoyu return, she rushed over without hesitation. Unable to get involved in the ninth-tier battlefield, her face was now filled with resentment.

Her appearance at this moment left no doubt that if she truly possessed the strength, she would have already given chase.

Long Haoyu gently held Cai'er's soft hand: "It's alright, the matter has been resolved. The demons have withdrawn their troops, and there shouldn't be any problems in the short term."

Cai'er frowned and pondered, her eyes flashing with murderous intent as she gazed out of the Exorcism Pass.

She had always enjoyed being by Long Haoyu's side and didn't want to miss even the slightest moment they spent together.

After a sudden glance, she decisively pulled her hand away from Long Haoyu's: "Haoyu, I'm going back to cultivate now. I will definitely improve my strength as soon as possible!"

"I will personally kill these three demon gods!"

He spoke these words with a murderous aura.

At this moment, ignoring everyone else's opinions and ignoring Long Haoyu's voice in his ear, he walked straight into the distance.

Strength, strength, strength!

She, Sheng Cai'er, now has only one thought in mind: to improve her strength.

if……

Today, she is strong enough to definitely help Long Haoyu on the battlefield.

However, with her current strength and cultivation level, she has no way to participate in the battle against the demon god.

What you can't do today, you'll definitely be able to do tomorrow.

In the past, Cai'er hated her identity as the Holy Maiden of Reincarnation, but now she suddenly begins to accept it.

This kind of identity will undoubtedly help her to maximize her strength in the shortest amount of time.

Only with this kind of identity can she be given enough talent to fight back when she encounters problems.

Long Haoyu looked at Cai'er's retreating figure with a complicated expression.

Sensing the change in Cai'er's emotions, he suddenly tightened his grip on her hand.

"Indeed, our strength is insufficient; we still need to continue improving it!"

"Only by reaching the pinnacle of strength that surpasses my grandfather's can one truly dominate everything!"

Long Haoyu thought to himself, his mindset undergoing a dramatic transformation along with Cai'er's at this moment.

Many things he used to avoid are now beginning to form a complete future in his mind.

The coexistence of two bloodlines still feels a bit off.

The demon-slaying cultivation was still lacking something.

He can do even better here!

Chapter 287. The Knights' Temple, Protecting Its Own, Now That's What You Call Confidence

"elder brother!"

Long Haoyu was deep in thought when Long Haochen's voice rang in his ear.

As brothers who grew up together, and both being very intelligent, even though Long Haoyu didn't say much, Long Haochen could still glean many clues from his older brother's reactions.

At this moment, Long Haoyu's sudden frown and deep thought made him feel uneasy, and he couldn't help but want to ask.

"Is there something you need?" Long Haoyu snapped out of his reverie, his voice softening as he asked with a smile.

Long Haochen's expression was complicated, and his azure eyes met his older brother's gaze without flinching: "Brother, are you alright? You seem to have something on your mind."

"What are you thinking about? When have I ever looked preoccupied?"

Long Haoyu concealed his true thoughts and said calmly, "What I was thinking about just now was because of the sudden sneak attack by the three demon gods."

"So I'm just thinking about how to improve my strength, like what I told you before about spiritual power. Improving my strength is the most urgent task."

"Therefore, I plan to go into seclusion for a while. Only by improving my strength can I truly overcome all obstacles!"

Looking at Long Haoyu's hypocritical expression, Long Haochen sighed heavily in his heart and unconsciously clenched his fists.

After the Demon Hunter Selection Competition ended, he was only a squire, but he eventually became the vice-captain of the No. 1 Demon Hunter Team.

Such a status was not something a mere squire could possess; he remembered some of the things Long Haoyu had said to him back then.

nowadays……

Once he actually arrived on the demon battlefield, he often took command of the demon-hunting teams, and he could clearly see that his elder brother was cultivating his abilities in this area.

But the clearer he became about these things, the more pressure he felt on his shoulders.

Now, seeing Long Haoyu's reactions, he began to suspect many bad things.

"Brother, he still won't tell me the things he's really hiding!"

"It seems my strength is still insufficient. If my strength could truly help my brother, perhaps everything could be changed!"

"My brother is going into seclusion to improve his strength, and I should also go into seclusion to improve my strength. My brother has already given me so many cultivation resources, and I cannot let him down!"

Long Haochen remained steadfast in his decision, deciding not to press Long Haoyu about the things he was hiding, and silently made a choice.

At this moment, Sheng Yue suddenly spoke up: "Hao Yu, I know you are feeling a lot of pressure right now, and the things you have encountered in this Demon Hunter Team Competition are beyond anything you have experienced before."

"But your great-grandfather still has something to tell you: don't put too much pressure on yourself at this time. This will be the last time!"

“This kind of thing will not happen again. My great-grandfather has already asked the Grand Elder of our Assassin Temple to go to the Temple Alliance to request reinforcements!”

Reinforcements?!

Long Haoyu was slightly taken aback.

He looked at Sheng Yue with a hint of surprise, never expecting her to make such a decision.

After pondering the matter for a moment, Long Haoyu understood the meaning behind Sheng Yue's words and solemnly gave Sheng Yue a knight's salute.

"Great-grandfather, thank you for your trouble in this matter."

"I will remember your instructions, great-grandfather, and will never let you down!"

"But improving my strength is inevitable; it's the path we need to take anyway, so I'll go down and cultivate now!"

Sheng Yue hummed in agreement, and seeing Long Haoyu's demeanor, her slight worry eased considerably.

Watching Long Haoyu descend from the city wall, her gaze met that of the Holy Spirit Heart.

"Grandfather, I have made all the arrangements for the repairs of Exorcism Pass after this battle!"

"Please rest assured, Grandfather!"

The Holy Spirit reports proactively.

As the military commander of the Exorcist Pass, he could arrange all his duties without needing anyone's orders.

Saint Moon nodded: "Just make the arrangements. This battle was too sudden, so remember not to overlook anything."

"Similarly, we must pay close attention to the movements of the demons. During the period when reinforcements are arriving, we must be on high alert!"

"Once reinforcements arrive, things should calm down!"

Saint Moon sighed softly, turned around, and headed towards the foot of the city wall.

The Holy Spirit continues to be involved in the arrangement of many matters.

The grandfather and grandson had developed a considerable understanding on this matter.

……

Two days later.

The restoration work on the city wall of the Exorcism Pass has been completed.

There were no signs of demons attacking within two days.

However, the demons did not attack, but powerful auras still descended upon the Exorcism Pass.

Two divine thrones suddenly appeared above the Exorcism Pass, and the terrifying might of the divine knights poured down from the dome.

Yang Haohan, the leader of the Holy Temple Alliance, sat on his throne, his face full of majesty as he looked down at everything below.

Long Xingyu, the Lord of the Knight Temple, was sitting on his throne, a throne that symbolized slaughter.
