He had never heard of a magical beast companion being able to merge with a human body. Trying hard to recall that day, he could only remember the outburst of spiritual power within him.

Long Haochen thought that even if it was one of Haoyue’s abilities, with their current cultivation levels, they shouldn’t be able to use it, otherwise they wouldn’t have such a strong backlash. But it was always a good thing. Being able to suddenly unleash a fighting power that increased by one rank at a critical moment was obviously a very good trump card.

Seeing Long Haochen and his team arrive, the leaders of the other nine demon hunt squads came up to greet him one after another. It was clear that Long Haochen had commanded well in yesterday’s battle and successfully completed the mission. Moreover, although they hadn’t clearly seen the final amazing blow, they could still feel the strong energy fluctuation. With this experience, their perception of Long Haochen’s age naturally changed quite a bit.

The ten leaders had also arrived. Seeing Long Haochen, Gao Yingjie came forward and asked, “How is it? Has everyone recovered?”

Long Haochen nodded slightly and said, “Leader, Cai’er has consumed a lot. It will take her a considerable amount of time to recover. She probably won’t be able to carry out missions with us for a while.”

Gao Yingjie’s heart stirred. Remembering the scene when Cai’er first used that ability and was stopped by Sheng Yue, he already understood a lot in his heart and didn’t ask further, simply nodding.

“Leader, is there a new mission for us this time?” Sima Xian asked, rubbing his hands together impatiently.

The benefits brought to him by yesterday’s battle were very obvious. Facing the huge pressure brought by the powerful enemies, he could feel that the speed of his inner spiritual power increasing had obviously accelerated. The bottleneck of two thousand spiritual power was already within reach. Perhaps after a few more battles, he could break through and become a fifth-rank priest.

After a priest reaches the fifth rank, they can learn several attack skills. When he returns to the Holy City, he will naturally have more secret skills to choose from.

Although Sima Xian didn’t say it, he was very anxious to improve his abilities. In the team, the difference between his role and Wang Yuanyuan’s was still quite large. Only by upgrading to the fifth rank as soon as possible could he, as a Discipline Priest, gradually play a greater role.

Gao Yingjie smiled and shook his head, saying, “Everyone did a great job on yesterday’s mission. The military of the Exorcist Pass is very satisfied, so they decided to give you three days of rest so that you have enough time to cultivate. After all, you are not soldiers, but here for trials. We called you here today because there’s a good thing! You’ll know in a moment.”

Just as they were talking, someone arrived. Not only were there people from the military, but also several assassins, including their heads, who were all shrouded in black clothes.

The Exorcist Pass adjutant Gu Jin, who had given them the mission before, walked at the front. The members of the Grade One Squad recognized the box he was holding at a glance. Wasn’t that exactly what they had intercepted from the Bloodthirsty Beta in the Demon race’s grain transport team?

Everyone’s eyes subconsciously turned to Long Haochen, who was also a little surprised. Thinking of what Gao Yingjie had just said, could it be that the Exorcist Pass intended to reward them with the contents of that box?

At this time, Adjutant Gu Jin and the assassins had arrived. Gu Jin first greeted the leaders such as Gao Yingjie, and then turned to the ten demon hunt squads.

“You deserve to be the most outstanding elites of the younger generation of the Alliance. You successfully completed the mission and disrupted the Demon race’s logistics supply. At least tens of thousands of Demon race troops will go hungry because of this. The contributions you have made to the Exorcist Pass will always be remembered by the soldiers and civilians of the Exorcist Pass. On behalf of the military and the people, I thank you.”

This Adjutant Gu Jin was a warrior. He stomped his right foot on the ground and gave a standard warrior salute to the ten demon hunt squads.

The demon hunt squad members also returned the salute with their respective Holy Temple’s etiquette. Being recognized was quite an honor for these young people. At least so far, their trial had been very smooth.

Gu Jin smiled and said, “Let me introduce you. These three are seniors from the Rogue Hall of the Assassin Temple.”

Assassins from the Rogue Hall? Hearing Gu Jin’s introduction, the young members of the newly promoted demon hunt squads were all shocked. The Rogue Hall was the most mysterious place in the Assassin Temple, with a total of thirty-six Rogue Assassins. Each Rogue Assassin was an eighth-rank existence and the most powerful existence in the Assassin Temple. The Vice-President of the Assassin Temple, Ying Suifeng, whom Long Haochen had seen before, also served as the hall master of the Rogue Hall.

These three were all eighth-rank experts? What was their purpose in coming here?

At this moment, the black-clothed person standing at the front took a few steps forward. He didn’t exude any powerful aura, and he didn’t even release any signs of life. He gave people the feeling of being a faint cloud of air.

But discerning people knew that this was the real assassin expert, capable of dissolving into any environment.

“Hello, children. I am Rogue Number Nineteen of the Rogue Hall.” The black-clothed person’s voice was somewhat low and even a little hoarse, but all the newly promoted demon hunt squad members straightened their backs and stood there quietly. This was a big shot at the eighth rank.

They had long heard that the thirty-six Rogue Assassins of the Rogue Hall only had numbers and not names. This was the first time they had seen one, and they were a little nervous.

“First of all, thank you for everything you have done for the Exorcist Pass. The one over there is the leader of the Grade One Squad. Please step forward.”

Long Haochen took two steps forward, clenched his right fist and lightly hammered his left chest, and said loudly, “Long Haochen, leader of the Grade One Squad, reports to you.”

This Rogue Number Nineteen seemed very easygoing and smiled slightly, saying, “No need to be so formal. You should recognize the box in Gu Jin’s hands, right?”

Long Haochen nodded and said, “I recognize it. This is what we seized from the enemy and handed over during yesterday’s mission.”

Rogue Number Nineteen nodded slightly and said, “That’s right. In view of the excellent performance of the team you led in the mission and the submission of this item, I represent the Assassin Temple and specially reward you with five hundred points of merit. Please come forward to receive it.”

Five hundred points of merit?

Hearing this number, a gasp suddenly sounded. One had to know that the weakest of the ten newly promoted demon hunt squads probably didn’t even have five hundred points of merit in total, and that was even after counting the two hundred points of merit they received after completing the mission. The Assassin Temple was so generous, actually rewarding the Grade One Squad with five hundred points of merit at once. The other demon hunt squads were immediately a little restless.

Rogue Number Nineteen said faintly, “You don’t need to rush. I can tell you that if the mission you were carrying out was not a trial mission but an exploration mission, then the merit points Long Haochen would have earned for submitting this box would have increased at least tenfold. I will show you what’s in the box soon.”

This was merit awarded by the Assassin Temple, and Long Haochen naturally wouldn’t refuse it. Under the excited gaze of his teammates, he walked in front of Rogue Number Nineteen and revealed his merit token.

Rogue Number Nineteen also revealed his left forearm, on which there was a light blue merit token. He placed it against Long Haochen’s token. After a moment, he lifted it, and the merit conversion was complete.

This Rogue Number Nineteen was also a demon hunter?

The demon hunt squad members were collectively called demon hunters. Since Rogue Number Nineteen had a merit token, it meant that he also had his own team. How powerful would a team have to be to have an assassin of this level? They probably had the strength to assassinate a Demon God.

After Long Haochen received the merit, he returned to his team’s position. He was also very curious about the items in the box. What kind of treasure was it that was so precious that even this eighth-rank expert admired it so much?

Rogue Number Nineteen said faintly, “If the Grade One Squad hadn’t submitted this box, I’m afraid none of you would know. But I can be sure that they have never opened this box from beginning to end.”

A warrior from another team couldn’t help but ask, “Sir Rogue, why are you so sure?”

Rogue Number Nineteen gestured to Gu Jin beside him. Gu Jin quickly came to his side. The powerful assassin directly placed his hand on the lid of the box and said faintly, “Because, few people can resist the temptation brought by what’s inside this box.”

As he spoke, he gently moved his fingers, and the lid of the box was opened. Immediately, a rich layer of light element instantly surged out of the box. The soft light element rose with a faint white light, giving everyone a feeling like bathing in the spring breeze. A petite body also rose from inside, slowly spreading its wings, trying to fly away somewhat weakly.

In an instant, everyone unconsciously widened their eyes. At least more than half of the people exclaimed, “Light Element Sprite!”

The smiles on the faces of the Grade One Squad members, who had been excited about receiving five hundred points of merit, instantly froze, except for Long Haochen.

It was, it was a Spiritual Stove, and an Elemental Spiritual Stove at that. They stared blankly at the Light Element Sprite struggling to fly away, their hearts filled with regret. Even Gao Yingjie had the same emotion.

If they had known that there was a Light Element Sprite in this box, no matter how Long Haochen tried to stop them, they would never have submitted it! Not to mention five hundred points of merit, even five thousand or fifty thousand points of merit couldn’t be exchanged for a Light Element Sprite! Any Spiritual Stove was priceless. In the hands of the person who needed it, it meant infinite possibilities. At least within the Grade One Squad, Long Haochen, Han Yu, and Sima Xian could all use this kind of Spiritual Stove, and it would be very suitable.

Long Haochen’s feelings were different from the others. The others were in regret, even in pain. But what appeared in his heart at this time was pity.

It wasn’t that he didn’t feel sorry for losing the Light Element Sprite, but that this pity appeared naturally in the depths of his heart the moment the Light Element Sprite left the box and its own aura was released. At the same time, the intermittent burning sensation in his body became even stronger.
