Gao Yingjie said in a deep voice: “You all go back and rest first. Long Haochen, if a situation like today happens again, I will disband your demon hunt squad. Do you understand?”

Long Haochen quickly stood at attention and gave him a knight’s salute.

Inside the treatment room. Only Sheng Yue, Lan Yanyu, and the unconscious Sheng Lingxin remained.

Everyone left, and Sheng Yue’s face immediately turned cold. “Speak. What exactly happened? I’ve lived longer than you’ve eaten rice. Although Haochen covered for you, the boy clearly can’t lie. When he was making up stories, he didn’t dare to look me in the eye.”

Lan Yanyu lowered her head, looking at her husband on the bed with concern. “Today I saw Long Haochen and Cai’er in the same bed… After Lingxin found out, she decided to test Long Haochen’s abilities and also teach him a lesson, so he wouldn’t overstep…”

“Absurd.” Sheng Yue was never one to have a good temper, and he was furious after hearing her explanation.

“Is your brain full of mush? Don’t you know that I personally went to this demon hunt squad selection competition with Cai’er? Could Long Haochen be with Cai’er without my permission? If Haochen hadn’t been so sensible today, it would have provoked a conflict between the two great temples. Let me tell you, Long Haochen is as important to the Knight Temple as Cai’er is to our Assassin Temple. And just now, the boy also told me that he is Long Xingyu’s son. You don’t know who Long Xingyu is, do you? Lingxin has always idolized Long Xingyu.”

“What can I say about the two of you? Fortunately, nothing happened. If something did happen, not only would you regret it for the rest of your lives, but it would also cause a huge uproar in the alliance.”

Lan Yanyu was a little stunned listening to Sheng Yue’s words. “But, but he and Cai’er were sleeping in the same bed! And they are so young.”

Sheng Yue said coldly: “What’s wrong with sleeping in the same bed? Isn’t that going to happen sooner or later? Did you wait until your wedding day to sleep with that little rascal Lingxin? In the entire alliance, no one is more worthy of my Cai’er than Long Haochen. What’s even rarer is that Cai’er can accept him. Don’t you know what Cai’er’s personality is like? Even you and I are excluded from her heart. Long Haochen can enter her heart, so he must have extraordinary qualities. I just didn’t pay attention to Cai’er for two days, and you almost caused a big problem.”

Lan Yanyu said sadly: “Grandpa, I am a mother! As a mother, shouldn’t I do something when I see my young daughter with a boy? I didn’t have the chance to cherish Cai’er when she was only three years old. I only have this one daughter, but she is like a stranger to me.”

Sheng Yue’s eyes gradually softened, and he sighed. “What is gained must be lost. Okay, fortunately, things didn’t escalate. Take good care of Lingxin.”

After saying these words, this ninth-level chivalrous cultivator turned and went out. After he left Lan Yanyu’s sight, a hint of helplessness couldn’t help but appear on the corners of the mouth of this influential old man in the temple alliance. That was also his great-granddaughter! However, he had no choice.

Barracks.

It was still dark at this time, and the dawn had not yet appeared.

Back in their temporary home, Long Haochen didn’t have time to say anything and fell asleep soundly with Cai’er in his arms. Everything Cai’er wanted to ask him melted away in his arms.

If you were to ask Long Haochen what he felt about the previous battle, then his answer would only be four words: It’s good to be alive.

Demon camp.

Unlike humans who are more rigid, demons are, to some extent, more like magical beasts, with a clear hierarchy, but management is not detailed.

Hundreds of thousands of demon troops were stationed in the plains. Because of the scarcity of materials and the demon’s lack of production, only those demon powerhouses above the fourth level were qualified to live in tents. Even so, the tents mostly looked very old.

Six thousand years ago, the seventy-two pillar demon gods suddenly descended, infecting a large number of aborigines who originally belonged to this continent and launched a war of aggression. As the saying goes, those who are not of my race have different hearts. The demons completely adopted a reckless killing and plundering strategy.

Along with thousands of years of war, humans gradually gained a foothold after establishing the Temple Alliance. After confronting the demons with several natural barriers, the demons gradually realized their problem.

Among the demons, the higher the level of the demon, the slower the reproduction speed. However, low-level demons like the Double-Blade Demon reproduce surprisingly quickly, almost like humans. Moreover, the Double-Blade Demon can enter adulthood in as little as three years.

The demons killed too many humans. In addition to humans, the races of some of the original inhabitants of the Holy Demon Continent were directly destroyed. In this case, after the war situation on the continent stabilized, the demons were at a loss to find that food was unsustainable.

In desperation, the demons could only gather the surviving humans together to grow food and raise livestock for them. The survival of a race must first fill its stomach. Other aspects were naturally abandoned.

However, although the demon territory was large, they had killed too many humans. Most of the surviving humans had fled to the Temple Alliance. There were too few humans they could find. Therefore, they had to abandon the development of other industries and focus on food.

The status of humans in the demon territory now is completely different from what it was back then. They even have a higher status than low and mid-level demons. They even have the qualifications to command low-level demons to assist in food production.

The demons constantly launch wars against the Temple Alliance. There are two main purposes: one is to plunder as many people as possible, and the other is to digest their excess population, especially low-level demons. However, for six thousand years, the six human temples have completely established their foothold. Although they are still at a disadvantage compared to the seventy-two pillar demon gods, they have managed to withstand the demon’s attacks time and time again with the natural barriers and the powerful weapons created by the crystallization of human wisdom. The demons hate defensive weapons such as magic cannons, but they are helpless. They simply do not have the production and manufacturing capabilities for such weapons. If the seventy-two pillar demon gods were not too powerful in force, the advantages and disadvantages of humans and demons would probably be reversed.

However, to this day, the demons still occupy the initiative, and humans still dare not send troops east to recover lost territory. Without the natural barrier, humans are still no match for the demons.

At the core of the demon camp, there are three huge tents, each ten meters high, with a circular diameter of at least thirty meters. In the demon clan, only the demon gods can live in them. It can also be regarded as luxurious.

At this time, the atmosphere inside the huge tent in the middle seemed a little gloomy.

The Flame Lion Demon Anluo Xian sat in the middle, with the Winged Bull Crazy Demon Sai He and the Green Demon Cavalry Xie Er on his sides.

Although these three demon gods are ranked outside the top fifty, they all have pivotal positions among the demons. However, at this time, they all looked gloomy, and their eyes even carried a strong sense of worry.

The Winged Bull Crazy Demon Sai He suddenly slammed the huge iron table in front of him, making a loud bang, “It was really stupid at the time. I should have caught it back. If it were sent to His Majesty, wouldn’t everything be solved?”

“Catch him? Do you want to go up or me? Or the Lion Demon?” The handsome Green Demon Cavalry Xie Er snorted coldly.

Hearing his words, the seemingly crude Sai He was immediately silent, and a hint of fear flashed across his eyes.

Anluo Xian waved his hand and said, “Okay, it’s useless to say these things. This news is too shocking. If it really is that person who has come to this world, even if it has not yet recovered its strength, we cannot easily make contact. I hope we are worrying too much and seeing things wrong. After all, that person should not be able to cross planes, otherwise…”

Speaking of this, the same fear appeared in his eyes.

Sai He gasped and said, “Then what do we do?”

The Flame Lion Demon Anluo Xian suddenly stood up, “We can’t discuss any results here. Like this, the two of you will preside over the army here, continue to launch feigned attacks, send more races below the third level up, but don’t launch a big battle, and also strengthen the defense of the camp here. I will immediately return to the Demon Capital to see His Majesty the Demon God Emperor and ask him to decide.”

The Green Demon Cavalry Xie Er nodded and said, “It can only be this way.”

A moment later, a thunderous sound of horse hooves resounded in the demon camp, and a ball of red light fled away to the east.

Morning.

The members of the Soldier-Class No. 1 Demon Hunt Squad did not stay in bed because of sleeping late last night. For their cultivation, meditating and concentrating for only one or two hours can adjust them without being injured.

Just as everyone was getting up to wash, the two soldiers who delivered the order to Long Haochen yesterday came again. However, this time they were not delivering orders, but bringing their breakfast.

“Hey, is the treatment in the military camp so good? Breakfast is delivered to the barracks?” Lin Xin said curiously.

The soldier who delivered the food put down the food box and said with a smile: “In view of your excellent performance on the city wall yesterday, the superiors decided to provide you with food according to the priest’s standards.” After speaking, he turned and left.

The food for different professional soldiers in the Temple Alliance is also different. This is not discrimination, mainly because people with different professions have different physical conditions. For example, warriors and assassins cannot eat the same things. Warriors must have endurance and be strong, while assassins cannot take in too much fat and staple food. They must maintain a light body. The food eaten by priests, magicians, and summoners will be better. What they consume is mental power, and they need more detailed nutrition. Among them, the priest’s food is the best, because priests are generally the most physically vulnerable.

Of course, there are exceptions to everything. For example, the few people in front of you almost all belong to the category of exceptions… Everyone will naturally not be polite when there is good food. After washing up, they immediately sat together and gorged themselves.
