“Departure.” The elder, acting as the inspector, gave the order in a flat voice. As he spoke, he casually waved the staff in his hand, and a ball of green light enveloped his body. He actually rose from the ground, floating about a meter above the surface, and began to move forward.

“You can pretend I don’t exist, and I won’t offer you any assistance, unless you plan to withdraw from this selection competition.” The elder’s voice floated from ahead. The green light suddenly intensified, and in the next moment, the inspector disappeared into thin air.

Seeing the inspector’s sudden disappearance, the others were startled. Only Long Haochen’s eyes flickered, and he subconsciously glanced towards his side and rear.

“This is the map.” Lin Jialu took out a sheepskin map from her bosom and spread it out in front of everyone. “We need to head east, and then infiltrate the Demon Clan’s controlled territory. These are for you.” As she spoke, she took out five round tokens from her bosom, keeping one for herself and giving the remaining four to the others.

Long Haochen took a token and saw that it was exquisitely crafted, made entirely of argentium, and inlaid with a light purple gemstone, emitting a faint magical fluctuation.

“These are our entry badges for the Demon Hunt Squad selection competition, and the back contains our identity, origins, and entry number. If we fail the entry ticket test, the inspector will take back our badges. With these badges, we won’t be troubled by the Alliance garrison, but we won’t receive their assistance either. Once we enter the Demon Clan’s territory, we’ll have to rely on ourselves. It’s best if we can encounter a few Demon Clan patrol units. As long as we complete the task of killing a total of twenty-five demons, we can successfully retreat.”

Speaking of this, Lin Jialu paused and deliberately glanced at Li Xin before saying, “With our cultivation levels, completing this task isn’t too difficult. However, since we’re acting as a team, we need to leverage the power of the collective. A snake can’t move without a head. Before we depart, it’s best to choose a leader to coordinate things in the event of battle.”

Li Xin snorted coldly, “So, you’re planning to be the leader?”

Lin Jialu glanced at her, not backing down, and said, “What’s wrong with that? I have the highest cultivation level here, and I’m a mage. I’ll be in the back during combat, making it easiest to observe the entire battlefield. It’s most suitable for me to command.”

Li Xin frowned slightly. After thinking for a moment, she actually nodded at Lin Jialu, saying, “Alright, you’ll command.”

Lin Jialu was stunned. She obviously hadn’t expected Li Xin to agree so readily, and she looked at her with some doubt.

Li Xin snorted, “What are you looking at? This young lady is fair and impartial. Even if it’s for my brother’s safe return, I won’t bicker with you at this time. However, if your command is flawed on the battlefield, I will unceremoniously strip you of your command.”

Lin Jialu directly chose to ignore Li Xin’s threat and turned her gaze to the Chen brothers, “Do you have any objections?”

Chen Si and Chen Chen shook their heads at the same time. These brothers were honest and simple and admitted that they were inferior to these two young ladies, so they naturally wouldn’t have any objections.

“Alright, since that’s the case, let’s depart.” Lin Jialu issued her first order as leader.

Long Haochen stood beside Li Xin with some frustration, thinking to himself, “Why didn’t she ask for my opinion!”

Just then, Lin Jialu walked towards him, “Little Long, I’m wearing a robe, so I can’t ride a horse. You take me with you, I’ll sit behind you.”

“Huh?” Long Haochen stared blankly at Lin Jialu, who had a gentle gaze and a charming smile. He then looked at Li Xin next to him, whose expression had suddenly turned as cold as ice. For a moment, he didn’t know how to answer.

Lin Jialu smiled slightly, not even looking at Li Xin, and said, “You’re a guardian knight! Shouldn’t you protect the safety of a mage?”

As she spoke, she directly extended her hand towards Long Haochen, signaling him to help her onto the horse.

“I’ll ride with you.” A slender hand stretched out from the side, pulled Lin Jialu, and directly dragged her onto the horse’s back. It was none other than Li Xin.

Lin Jialu was startled by her and said angrily, “Who wants to ride with you? You’re a vindicator knight, can you protect me properly?”

Li Xin said fiercely, “Either you choose the Chen Si or Chen Chen brothers, or it’s like this. Don’t even dream of taking advantage of my brother. I won’t give you the opportunity.” As she spoke, Li Xin lightly tapped the horse’s belly with her feet, and the rose unicorn galloped away, like a red arrow, amidst Lin Jialu’s dissatisfied angry shouts.

Long Haochen and the Chen brothers exchanged glances, their faces revealing a hint of helplessness. They quickly spurred their horses and chased after them. A dark figure followed closely behind them, moving along the ground like a black arrow, its two heads looking around, appearing very excited.

A distance of over four hundred li was at most two hours of work for the rose unicorn. But Long Haochen’s ordinary horses couldn’t handle it. They set out in the morning, and it wasn’t until near dusk that they arrived near the border.

With their selection competition badges, the five of them successfully passed through the stationed area of the Holy Temple Alliance army and left their horses there. After eating a simple dinner, they quietly entered the Demon Clan’s territory.

To reduce the possibility of being discovered, Li Xin even had the rose unicorn return to its space. Taking advantage of the darkness, they crossed a range of hills, and the Demon Clan’s territory was already visible in the distance.

“Stop for a moment.” Lin Jialu called for everyone to stop and took out the map again. Although she had tacitly agreed to ride with Li Xin later, her expression was still somewhat unpleasant.

The others crouched down around Lin Jialu. Lin Jialu spread out the map, pointed to a spot on it, and said, “We’re currently in this location. About two hundred li ahead, the Demon Clan’s army is stationed. Directly attacking the military camp is unrealistic; it will only be a one-way trip. Therefore, our task is to sweep the Demon Clan’s scouts in the next few days. From now on, everyone needs to maintain good formation. Li Xin, you’re in the front, Chen Si and Chen Chen, you two brothers are on the flanks, Little Long, you’re in the rear, and I’m in the center. Once we encounter the enemy, follow my orders. Understood?”

Although her expression wasn’t good, Lin Jialu was calm at this time, and her beautiful face carried a hint of majesty.

Including Li Xin, everyone nodded.

Lin Jialu put away the map. As everyone stood up again, they couldn’t help but turn their eyes towards the Demon Clan’s direction. The emotions of tension, excitement, and slight fear made them all become vigilant. They were about to face the great enemy of humanity, and the heroic sentiments in their hearts were more or less aroused.

“Haoyue, come out.” Long Haochen said in a deep voice.

A black shadow flashed, and the two-headed lizard Haoyue had quietly arrived beside Long Haochen. Its appearance suddenly startled the few people whose nerves were already on edge.

“Don’t be nervous, everyone. This is my partner,” Long Haochen quickly explained in a low voice.

Everyone’s eyes couldn’t help but turn to Haoyue. The most surprised was Lin Jialu. As a mage, her spiritual power was naturally much stronger than close combat classes, and her perception was also stronger, but she hadn’t noticed Haoyue’s existence at all just now.
