Incredulous gazes appeared on almost every powerful assassin’s face.

After a brief shock, Saint Moon’s expression gradually darkened, becoming incredibly grim.

“What did I say before we left? Have you forgotten? I told you not to target the demons. What if you failed to attack Si’er? How am I supposed to explain this to the Knight Temple?”

This great hero was genuinely angry. Among the powerful figures present, he was the only one who truly understood what Long Haochen and Cai’er meant to the Temple Alliance. If Long Haochen were to die here, not only would he be unable to explain it, but neither would anyone else!

Long Haochen couldn’t afford to show weakness at this moment, because he represented the Knight Temple, he was the acting Holy Knight Leader.

“Temple Master, please calm down. I had a thorough plan before acting. Even if the attack on the Green Demon Cavalry failed, Cai’er and I would definitely be able to retreat safely. I have an artifact that can escape into space. Under any circumstances, it can take both of us to another space and allow us to stay there for a long time. We were able to kill Si’er and safely leave the battlefield before because of this artifact.”

Hearing the word “artifact,” Saint Moon was stunned, and the other assassins also showed similar expressions. An artifact that could escape into space – this sentence caught almost all of their attention. This was the first time they had heard of such an artifact. Moreover, the allure of being able to stay in another space for a long time was simply too great for assassins.

“Is it from your Knight Temple?” Saint Moon asked subconsciously.

Long Haochen shook his head and said, “It’s mine, or rather, it’s our team’s.”

Saint Moon turned his gaze to Cai’er, who was standing nearby, and saw her nodding without hesitation.

Sighing inwardly, Saint Moon said, “Alright, since that’s the case, I won’t say any more. In any case, you killed a demon god for Demon Hunt Pass, which is a great achievement. However, after our actions tonight, it’s foreseeable that the demon race’s counterattack will likely begin immediately. Their desire for revenge is always the strongest. Everyone, gather the demon crystals we collected this time, and we’ll give them a taste of their own medicine, let them experience the power of the magic cannons.”

“Yes.” A clear look of excitement appeared in the eyes of the heroes and hidden heroes.

It had been a long time since they had fought so freely. As Long Haochen said, assassins were not good at defending cities. The night and the shadows were their stage!

After this sneak attack, the demon race’s strength had been greatly reduced. Even if they attacked Demon Hunt Pass again, their strength would be limited. Moreover, with the help of Long Haochen’s forbidden spell, the morale of the soldiers in Demon Hunt Pass had greatly increased, and with sufficient manpower to repair the city defenses, they had regained some of their former appearance.

“Temple Master, I request to participate in the city defense battle,” Long Haochen immediately stated.

Saint Moon snorted and said, “You can’t not participate even if you wanted to. What we lack most in Demon Hunt Pass are priests. You and Han Yu will act as priests for me. It would be great if you could cast that kind of forbidden spell again.”

“Uh…” Long Haochen was speechless for a moment, thinking to himself, “I’m a knight, not a priest!” However, Saint Moon had finally let him off, and he didn’t want to be annoying at this time, so he honestly agreed and retreated to the side.

Cai’er followed him with a sweet smile. Since Long Haochen came back, Cai’er’s mood had been the best it could be, as if she had found her backbone.

The demon race’s attack came without warning. As dawn broke, the demon army far away from Demon Hunt Pass suddenly moved. A large number of Double Blade Demons surged toward Demon Hunt Pass like a tide. As they ran, their blade-like forelimbs constantly stabbed into the ground, making a harsh scraping sound. Darkness and bloodshed once again shrouded Demon Hunt Pass.

On the city wall of Demon Hunt Pass, about half of the remaining strength of the Radiant Angel Knight Order from the Knight Temple had been transferred to the city wall. They had been acting as a reserve team, and would only be dispatched to defend the city in the most critical moments. Even so, they had lost half of their strength in the Holy War over the past year.

It wasn’t that Saint Moon didn’t want to use them, but they were the Knight Temple’s assistance to the Assassin Temple. How could he easily let them stand on the most dangerous city wall? Therefore, Saint Moon and Saint Lingxin, the grandfather and grandson, didn’t use this knight order unless absolutely necessary.

The knights of the Radiant Angel Knight Order, of course, could not act as priests. They were good at team combat and had amazing defensive power, but their cultivation limited them and they were not good at healing. But using them to defend the city was much stronger than ordinary soldiers or the strong from the Assassin Temple.

The knights stood quietly on the city wall in a line. Each knight was assisted by a large number of warriors and the strong from the Assassin Temple.

A large-scale counterattack by the demon race was inevitable, and this battle would be extremely dangerous. Saint Lingxin, who was familiar with the demon race’s tactics, was prepared to deal with the demon race’s full-scale attack. Therefore, all the trump cards were brought out.

After the knights of the Radiant Angel Knight Order stood in formation, they suddenly turned around at the same time and gave a knight salute to the second level of Demon Hunt Pass behind them. The clanging sound of the knights hitting their chests with their right fists resounded throughout the city wall. A solemn and murderous aura suddenly appeared, and this clanging sound also greatly boosted the morale of the warriors in Demon Hunt Pass.

Saint Lingxin, of course, knew that they were not saluting him. Although the Radiant Angel Knight Order listened to his command, such etiquette only belonged to knights.

Long Haochen, standing beside Saint Lingxin, stepped forward and hit his chest with his right fist. The next moment, he suddenly drew his Ripple of Light, raised it high into the air, and shouted, “For the glory of the knights!”

His shout almost resounded throughout Demon Hunt Pass. At the same time, a pillar of brilliant golden light burst out from his heavy sword, like the first ray of dawn rising on the city wall of Demon Hunt Pass.

“For the glory of the knights!” All the knights shouted in unison.

They all knew that the Holy Knight Leader had come to Demon Hunt Pass. Although he was only the acting Holy Knight Leader, the knights of the Radiant Angel Knight Order felt as if they had seen their relatives. For them, it didn’t matter who the Holy Knight Leader was. What mattered was that the Knight Temple had actually sent him to Demon Hunt Pass.

What did this mean? It meant that the Knight Temple was helping the Assassin Temple, and it also meant that the Knight Temple hadn’t forgotten them! Wasn’t the arrival of the Holy Knight Leader to command them?

Moreover, Long Haochen had performed great feats twice on his first day and had conquered the entire Demon Hunt Pass with the incredibly powerful forbidden magic, Holy Rain. He had only spent one day, and his status in Demon Hunt Pass could faintly be compared to Saint Moon. This was an immeasurable honor for the knights of the Radiant Angel Knight Order.

No profession valued glory more than knights. Glory was life, and knights with a high sense of glory had the most terrifying combat power. At this moment, the Radiant Angel Knight Order, after experiencing such great losses, seemed to have regained their souls.

Even if they were only standing on the second level of the city wall of Demon Hunt Pass to watch these warriors, they could feel the crazy fighting spirit emanating from them at this moment.

Saint Lingxin stood beside Long Haochen and muttered secretly, “I’m very good to these knights, but they ultimately belong to the Knight Temple!” Long Haochen hadn’t even really contacted them, but he was able to mobilize the morale of these knights to such an extent. How could he not be envious and jealous? Of course, this envy and jealousy was completely positive. This man next to him was his future son-in-law! No matter how jealous he was, they were still family.

Of course, it was impossible for Saint Lingxin not to feel a sense of loss. His status in the Assassin Temple was already not low, but compared to Long Haochen’s status in the Knight Temple, he was just a drop in the bucket.

Saint Lingxin only quickly turned this thought over in his mind, and orders were constantly being issued from him.

“Are the magic cannons ready?”

“Ready. There are a total of twenty-one intact magic cannons that can be put into battle. They have all been loaded with demon crystals.”

Saint Lingxin thought for a moment and said, “How long can they attack for?”

“If we attack continuously, the demon crystals we have on hand can last for twelve hours. Considering that the magic cannons may overheat and explode, it’s best to cool them down every quarter of an hour.”

Saint Lingxin nodded. Now that the magic cannons could be used again, his confidence finally increased.

“Have the reserves entered their designated positions?”

“Everything is ready.”

“Good.” A cold light flashed in Saint Lingxin’s eyes, and an invisible and strong sense of majesty emanated from him. “Pass down my order. After the Double Blade Demons begin their attack, the warriors must cooperate with the Radiant Knights to keep them outside the battlements. All magic cannons must be aimed at the sky. If the enemy’s air force appears, hit them hard.”

“Yes.”

Long Haochen stood beside Saint Lingxin, listening to him issue orders. From Saint Lingxin’s orders, he could hear how pessimistic the situation in Demon Hunt Pass was. Although the Alliance had been constantly providing support, the demon race’s continuous attacks had almost exhausted all of Demon Hunt Pass’s city defense tools. Although the magic cannons had been replenished this time, Demon Hunt Pass was still at a clear disadvantage in terms of strength comparison. He could only hope that the six demon gods wouldn’t join the battlefield. Otherwise, today’s situation would be difficult to deal with.

“Commander-in-chief, look quickly.” A soldier looking into the distance suddenly shouted urgently.
