Holding Caier tightly, Long Haochen clenched his teeth. “It’s all my fault, I didn’t protect you well enough. I let you use the Cycle Spiritual Stove.”

Caier smiled faintly, “Silly, as long as you’re okay. That aura after you fused with Haoyue was really peculiar, even my Cycle Sword was drawn to it. It seems my cultivation is still lacking.”

Holding Caier tighter, Long Haochen said in a low voice, “From now on, until your sense of smell recovers, I won’t allow you to participate in any more battles. You can only stay here and rest.”

Caier was taken aback and blurted out, “How can I do that? I want to stay by your side.”

Long Haochen shook his head, almost domineeringly, “No, you can only stay here and rest. On a battlefield like this, I don’t have the ability to fully protect you. I can’t let you face any more danger. Caier, we’ve been together for so long, I’ve never asked you for anything. But this time you have to agree. You must.”

Caier was silent. She was somewhat unaccustomed to Long Haochen’s sudden show of strength. However, she could feel his body trembling slightly because of his emotional state.

“Caier, do you know? I’m very afraid of losing you. I promise you that when you’re not by my side, I’ll take good care of myself and protect myself. I’ll definitely come back safely so you won’t worry.”

Caier gently nodded in his arms, “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”

Long Haochen was overjoyed, “Thank you, Caier.”

Caier nestled against his warm chest, and said softly, “Just remember that I’m even more afraid of losing you. You’re the only one in this world who can bring me warmth.”

Long Haochen gently kissed her forehead. They closed their eyes almost simultaneously, and their faces showed a sense of relief. Their hearts were even closer together.

……Assassin Temple Headquarters.

Knight Saint Yue quietly sat on a huge high-backed chair that was entirely black. Standing silently beside him was Liao Tianze, the deputy head of the Demon Hunt Pass, who was temporarily taking over Saint Lingxin’s responsibilities for the defense of the Demon Hunt Pass.

“Knight Saint, that’s the situation.”

Liao Tianze had just finished reporting to Saint Yue about the mission of the ten newly promoted demon hunter squads to intercept the demon race’s grain transport team, including this box.

“This thing is quite precious! It’s commendable that Long Haochen was willing to take it out.” A rare smile appeared on Saint Yue’s aging face. His fingers tapped lightly on the box, but his eyes flickered slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

Liao Tianze said, “According to Gao Yingjie, Long Haochen and his team didn’t open the box before handing it over. They were afraid that the box contained important items related to the Demon Hunt Pass. These kids are really something. If it were me, I wouldn’t necessarily be willing to hand it over. They must have encountered strong resistance this time. I guess Gao Yingjie and the others had to step in to kill the demon guarding it. This is a Spiritual Stove, and the guardian was at least a seventh-tier demon. If this thing wasn’t of the Light attribute, the protection would probably have been even stronger.”

Saint Yue nodded slightly and said, “Regardless, these little ones are so selfless, we can’t be stingy in the Assassin Temple.”

As he spoke, he flicked his finger, and the solid lid of the box popped open with a soft “poof” sound.

A soft white light rose quietly, and it could be clearly seen that it was a small human figure. Only half a foot tall, it radiated a holy white light, and a pair of slightly wrinkled small wings spread out behind it, but it couldn’t fly. Its little face was full of exhaustion, and it struggled slightly, trying to flap its wings.

A Light Elemental Sprite. That’s right, inside the box that Long Haochen and his team had recovered was a Light Elemental Sprite, a priceless elemental spiritual stove.

The demon race can also absorb natural treasures like spiritual stoves, but Light Elemental Spiritual Stoves are an exception, because the demon race is inherently dark and most repulsive to the light attribute. If they absorbed this thing, it would be more powerful than the most poisonous poison.

If Long Haochen knew that the box contained a Light Elemental Spiritual Stove, he would probably have hesitated for a long time before making a decision.

Among all elemental spiritual stoves, the most precious are the Light and Dark elements. Because they are not only rare, but also have extraordinary significance for both the demon race and humans.

Light Elemental Spiritual Stoves are not ranked particularly high among all spiritual stoves. Of course, they are much stronger than the Holy Guidance Spiritual Stove, ranking around twentieth among all spiritual stoves. However, it shares a characteristic with the Holy Guidance Spiritual Stove, and that is the gentleness of its nature. It is completely opposite to the fierceness of the Dark Elemental Spiritual Stove.

After absorbing a Light Elemental Spiritual Stove, it will not easily cause rejection unless it encounters a spiritual stove with conflicting attributes. Moreover, the Light Elemental Spiritual Stove has the widest range of uses and is suitable for anyone with Light attribute abilities. The most suitable are naturally priests, knights, and light-type magicians. If any of them saw a Light Elemental Spiritual Stove, they would probably try to obtain it at all costs.

Saint Yue looked at the little thing and smiled slightly, “Your suffering will be far away. Let me find a partner for you. Otherwise, this little thing will be so weak that it can only gradually fade away.”

Looking up at Liao Tianze, the gentleness in Saint Yue’s eyes was gradually replaced by hardness. “If I’m not mistaken, the demon race transported this Light Elemental Spiritual Stove to the demon camp because they were planning to make a deal with us. The most likely thing they want to exchange it for is food.”

The Holy Temple Alliance is well aware of the demon race’s shortage of food, but sometimes the Holy Temple Alliance will conduct some transactions with the demon race in exchange for some special treasures. It can be considered a win-win situation. In the eyes of both parties, what they obtain is what they need most.

For example, the demon race once had a low-level demon god captured by the Holy Temple Alliance, and eventually exchanged him back to humans with ten spiritual stoves.

Six thousand years of war have created an irreconcilable relationship between humans and the demon race, but there have been variables throughout the entire war.

Liao Tianze hesitated for a moment and said, “Sir Knight, do you mean to return this Light Elemental Spiritual Stove to the team that obtained it?”

Saint Moon shook his head and said, “That won’t do. We, the Assassin Temple, have no use for this thing. However, this operation was launched jointly by ten Demon Hunt Squads, and the value of the Light Elemental Spiritual Stove is clear to you. If we simply return it to Long Haochen and his team, once the news leaks, it will likely cause public outrage. That would be bad; it wouldn’t show the Assassin Temple’s generosity, but would instead be counterproductive.”

Liao Tianze asked, puzzled, “Then what should we do?”

Saint Moon extended a finger and gently stroked the top of the Light Elemental Spirit’s head. “Let this little fellow choose for itself.”

As he said this, a hint of cunning couldn’t help but appear in his eyes. This was killing two birds with one stone! Thinking of this, the Knight couldn’t help but feel a little pleased with himself.

…Long Haochen and the others returned at noon, and the excessive fatigue caused everyone to skip lunch. As darkness approached again, suddenly, a scream startled everyone awake.

“Ah! Ah! Ah! Why, why is this happening?” The scream echoed through the barracks, awakening everyone.

“What’s wrong? What’s wrong?” Sima Xian sat up in a flash, reaching for his staff beside the bed.

On the other side, Wang Yuanyuan also leaped out of bed, wearing only her underclothes.

The voice was coming from Chen Ying’er’s bed. Because she, like Cai’er, had surrounded her bed with curtains, those outside couldn’t see what was happening inside.

The others naturally woke up as well. Wang Yuanyuan, being a girl, stepped forward and pulled open the curtains around Chen Ying’er’s bed to look inside. This one look was enough to stun her.

From their angles, the others still couldn’t see anything. Long Haochen, with Cai’er, had already gotten out of bed and reached Wang Yuanyuan in a few steps. However, there was a girl in the bed, so he couldn’t directly look inside. He quickly asked Wang Yuanyuan, “What’s wrong with Ying’er?”

“See for yourselves,” Wang Yuanyuan turned her head, and Long Haochen clearly saw that the corners of her mouth were twitching, as if she wanted to laugh.

Wang Yuanyuan moved aside, and the others naturally saw what was inside. Chen Ying’er was sitting there with a tearful expression, holding a small pig that was snorting and grunting in her arms.

The little pig was pure white, its skin as translucent as lychee flesh, plump and round, only about a foot long. Faint light flickered beneath its snow-white skin.

“Ying’er, what’s wrong? Is that your summoned beast?” Long Haochen asked, puzzled. After a few hours of rest, his complexion had improved somewhat. Although he couldn’t fight, walking wasn’t a problem.

Chen Ying’er suddenly burst into tears, hugging the little pig and throwing herself onto the bed, sobbing uncontrollably. Her expression was one of indescribable pain.

Lin Xin peeked over, puzzled. “Why are you crying so sadly? This little pig is quite cute. Should we have roast suckling pig for dinner tonight?” As he spoke, a small flame “popped” out of his finger.

A chubby little pig head poked out from Chen Ying’er’s waist, glaring at Lin Xin and blowing a puff of air at him.

“Pfft.” The flame on Lin Xin’s finger actually disappeared just like that.

“Oh, this little pig is interesting! Ying’er, could this be your natal summoned beast?” Lin Xin laughed heartily.

His laughter immediately made Chen Ying’er cry even louder.

Lin Xin couldn’t laugh anymore, and the others’ expressions instantly changed. Wang Yuanyuan hesitated and said, “Ying’er, this, this couldn’t really be…”

Chen Ying’er suddenly sat up straight, looking at everyone with tearful eyes. “I, I don’t know what happened. When we were intercepting the grain carts, I activated the Gate of Life and summoned this pig. You were all busy fighting the Bloodthirsty Beta at the time. Seeing that it clearly had no combat power, I held it. After the battle, I thought it was quite cute, so I brought it back. You were all in bad shape then, and didn’t notice.”

“I thought that this little pig looked so cute, I would play with it for a while, and it would naturally disappear when the magic ended. The summoned beasts I summon with the Gate of Life can only last for a maximum of three hours. But, but it’s been more than four hours, and it hasn’t disappeared. When I woke up and saw it was still there, I was terrified. I quickly checked my soul contract. I, I actually…”

She said to here, and everyone naturally understood. Chen Ying’er had actually inexplicably signed a soul contract with this seemingly harmless little white pig, making it her natal summoned beast.

Chen Ying’er looked at the soft, glutinous appearance of the little white pig in front of her and couldn’t help but cry again.

For a summoner, the natal summoned beast is absolutely the most important thing. Because the natal summoned beast will grow along with the summoner. The stronger the natal summoned beast is at birth, the stronger it will be after it grows up.

Low-level summoners rely on various summons, while true summoner experts rely on their natal summoned beasts. A powerful natal summoned beast can even surpass the summoner’s own rank. A ninth-level summoner will definitely have a powerful tenth-level summoned beast. They are not inferior to any other ninth-level profession.

Chen Ying’er’s talent in summoning is completely different from ordinary summoners, but she is exactly the same in terms of her natal summoned beast. At this moment, she actually has a pig as her natal summoned beast, which made her feel completely unbearable! More importantly, she immediately thought of Yang Wenzhao’s Radiant Unicorn.

Chen Ying’er regretted not listening to the words of the Saint Moon Knight last time and accepting the Evil Eye Lord. Although it was not good-looking, it was at least powerful! Now she has brought out such a little pig, what role can she play in the team in the future? Being a burden on the battlefield, she will inevitably be eliminated by the team.
“Stop crying, what good does crying do?” A cold voice suddenly rang out, like a bucket of cold water splashed on her face, causing Chen Ying’er to shiver.

Everyone turned their heads in surprise. The speaker was actually Cai’er.

Since forming the Rank One Warrior Demon Hunt Squad, Cai’er had rarely spoken, almost always letting Long Haochen and the others communicate. She just followed silently. But her influence and importance within the team was something that everyone had to take seriously. Before Long Haochen merged with Haoyue and transformed into the Radiant Knight today, she was undoubtedly the strongest member of the team and their primary attacker.

“You can’t just look at things with your eyes; you have to use your heart. Don’t let appearances deceive you. Is it possible for an ordinary pig to actively form a soul contract with you, and you, as a summoner, not even realize it?”
