Just like the Divine Knights of the Knights Temple, the eleven powerhouses of the Assassins Temple are also ninth-tier Hero-level assassins. They are the most core strength of the Assassins Temple.

“Acting Paladin of the Knights Temple, Adamantine No. 12, greets all seniors. Please forgive me for not being able to reveal my name due to special reasons.” Long Haochen respectfully performed the knightly salute to the Heroes.

Including Sheng Yue, the eleven Heroes returned the salute simultaneously, and it was the most noble etiquette of the Assassins Temple, on equal footing and with equality.

Sheng Yue said sincerely: “Welcome, powerful Paladin. The Assassins Temple will never forget everything you have brought to the Devil Expelling Pass. May the friendship between our two great Temples last forever. If you need any help in the future, the Assassins Temple, from me down, will never retreat.”

Sheng Yue’s words were very important. Even Yang Haohan had never received such a promise from him. The meaning of his words was very simple: From now on, as long as Long Haochen needs it, the Assassins Temple will do its best to help him.

And being able to obtain Sheng Yue’s recognition to this extent was really because Long Haochen’s Holy Rain came too timely.

Within the Devil Expelling Pass, there were a large number of wounded soldiers who were suffering not only physically but also mentally. Moreover, under the continuous siege of the demon army, the Devil Expelling Pass was almost always shrouded in a layer of gray.

The descent of the Holy Rain washed away the warriors’ fatigue, reignited their confidence, healed a large number of wounded soldiers, and brought new vitality to the Devil Expelling Pass. It can be said that this powerful forbidden spell greatly reversed the unfavorable situation currently faced by the Devil Expelling Pass. If Sheng Yue originally thought that the Devil Expelling Pass could last for a month at most, then now he was confident that he could fight the demons to the death for another year. Moreover, in Sheng Yue’s eyes, the most important point of the Holy Rain was not its healing effect, but its healing of psychological trauma, the powerful effect of clearing away the inner haze of the Devil Expelling Pass’s soldiers.

Therefore, Sheng Yue made such a solemn promise. With this promise, the Assassins Temple would have to unconditionally do one thing for Long Haochen, which was one-sixth of the power of the Temple Alliance!

Long Haochen was slightly stunned, but he did not refuse. He just performed a knightly salute to Sheng Yue again.

The reasons for his non-rejection were somewhat complex. Simply put, it was because of some internal problems within the Temple Alliance itself.

Anyone could see that if the six professions of the six major Temples could be perfectly combined, and each fortress was evenly distributed with the six professions, the power to resist the demons would become stronger.

However, why has this never been achieved?

In the history of the Temple Alliance, countless predecessors had tried to promote such a transformation, but all ended in failure. This was because of the self-protectionism of the six major Temples.

This was inevitable. If the six major Temples merged with each other, then what would happen to the accumulation of each Temple over the years? Manpower, material resources, all of this needed to be coordinated. Although the six major Temples did not mean the six countries in the Temple Alliance, in reality, each Temple was highly autonomous.

The trials of the Demon Hunter Groups had long told the six major Temples about the benefits and effects of professional integration, but to this day, the six major Temples were still acting independently, each with its own territory and each with its own fortress.

Long Tianyin had specifically told Long Haochen about this matter for half a day. In promoting the integration of the six major professions, the Priests Temple was the most supportive. The reason was naturally because the self-preservation ability of the priests was too poor. And apart from the Priests Temple, almost all of the other five major Temples held opposing attitudes. The opposition from the Knights Temple was relatively small. The most intense opposition came from the Assassins Temple, the Mages Temple, and the Souls Temple.

Although the Temple Alliance had tried its best to adjust the professional ratio between the six major Temples after the start of the Holy War, in reality, the fundamental strength used by the six major Temples to resist the demons was still their own.

Long Tianyin explicitly told Long Haochen that at least for now, this problem could not be solved, but that did not mean that it could never be solved. If you wanted to truly integrate the six major Temples, then only one situation could be realized, and that was to give humanity a country again, a highly centralized and powerful empire. Only in this way could the six major Temples’ respective conservatism be broken and the complete integration of strength be achieved.

Of course, the difficulty of establishing this country was unimaginable. It was almost impossible to unify the opinions of the six major Temples.

Long Tianyin finally said earnestly to Long Haochen that if one day he could grow to be strong enough and establish a strong enough influence in the Alliance, then he would have the opportunity to complete this feat, which was what the Knights Temple most hoped to see. This was also why Long Tianyin decided to let him go to each Temple separately. It was not to get the support of these Temples now, but to let him understand the six major Temples.

Long Haochen had never thought about being an emperor, but he knew the importance of integrating the power of the six major Temples for humanity. This Holy War had greatly damaged the Alliance. Although the demons had suffered a great loss, all the integration was under the control of the Demon God Emperor alone, and their reproduction speed was also quite terrifying. If the current situation continued, humanity would still be continuously suppressed by the demons. Being able to be content with a corner was the best outcome.

Therefore, Long Haochen did not reject Sheng Yue’s promise. Perhaps, in a particularly needed time, this promise would play an extremely important role.

Long Tianyin carefully analyzed the current situation of the six major Temples for Long Haochen. The Knights Temple was the strongest, there was no doubt about it, and the closest to the Knights Temple was the Assassins Temple. The Mages Temple and the Warriors Temple had a better relationship. These two forces were also the largest in the Alliance. The Priests Temple and the Souls Temple were relatively independent.

Therefore, if you really want to unify the entire Alliance and achieve high centralization in the future, then you must first solidify allies and obtain the support of the Assassins Temple. Then go and influence the other four major Temples.

It was still early to talk about these things now, but Long Tianyin told Long Haochen to be prepared. This was not a conspiracy, but for humanity to eventually defeat the demons.

The power of an individual is always small. Even if Long Haochen could gain the recognition of the Eternal and Creative Divine Throne, could he rely on his own strength to contend against the entire demon race? The answer was obviously no. He needed the support of the entire Alliance, and he must have the power to command the entire Alliance in order to launch a counterattack.

Yang Haohan, the leader of the Temple Alliance, could not do this, and Long Tianyin could not do this, but Long Haochen had the opportunity. The identity of the Son of Light, the Favored of God, had already given him a strong enough appeal. What’s more, there was also a Priests Temple that supported the Union of the Alliance.

While Long Haochen was returning the salute to Sheng Yue and the other Heroes, recalling his grandfather’s earnest words, suddenly, a figure squeezed into the crowd, and those Heroes did not stop her.

A figure, like a swallow returning to its nest, crashed directly into Long Haochen’s arms, giving him a big hug.

Seeing this person, all the Heroes present were stunned. Sheng Yue was first taken aback, and then his eyes became strange. He finally knew who this Paladin of the Knights Temple who had created a miracle was. He knew his great-granddaughter too well. Who else but that kid could make her so emotional and take the initiative to throw herself into his arms? Even after losing her memory, his precious great-granddaughter could not possibly fall in love with someone else.

However, after figuring out who this Adamantine Foundation Knight was, Sheng Yue’s shock and surprise became even stronger.

For more than a year and a half, he had been doing his best to teach Cai’er, and Cai’er had not let him down, growing at an amazing speed. Her cultivation was now as high as the seventh rank, sixth level. In Sheng Yue’s opinion, at this rate of cultivation, she should have caught up with that kid, right? He couldn’t help but feel proud for a long time.

However, the truth was so cruel. When this little guy came back to him, he had already become an eighth-rank knight, and also an eighth-rank knight with an epic Adamantine Foundation Battle Armor. Did the Knights Temple show favoritism to him? Although Sheng Yue was over a hundred years old, his mind had not yet reached the point of being silly. Did they need to show favoritism? His magic just now had already proven everything. Even if that forbidden spell was cast by him secretly pulling out a scroll, it was impossible to exert its power without sufficient strength. What’s more, he had personally heard the entire process of Long Haochen’s incantation.

Could this little guy already be at the ninth rank? This was the entangled question in Sheng Yue’s mind at this time. However, his mood was even better in this shock.

The promise just now was what he had to make, and in his heart, he was not willing to owe the Knights Temple such a big favor. But now it was different. The Assassins Temple owed a favor to his great-grandson-in-law. They were all his own people!

However, the other Heroes did not know what was going on. Of course, they all knew Cai’er’s identity, the Saintess of Reincarnation, a talent that the Assassins Temple had not seen in a thousand years. The absolute successor of the Assassins Temple in the future, the strongest. Cai’er had previously escaped from the hands of the demon gods at the seventh rank, which had once again proved her strength to these Assassins Temple powerhouses. Moreover, all along, in the eyes of these Heroes, although Cai’er was a junior, her coldness was something that no one could approach. This was also a necessary quality for an assassin.

Although it’s Monday, I really can’t handle it anymore. For the reunion of Xiao Long and Cai’er, Lao San begs everyone to send out a few recommendation tickets. I’m picking up Qilin to go home today. Hehe, no matter how hard it is, I still feel happy.
