“Don’t be discontented by the restrictions the Alliance put on you. That’s because way too many hopes were placed on you. Your astonishing speed of growth is already giving us real hopes of success. If you manage to grow, even the Demon God Emperor will not necessarily be your match!” With two supra-divine tools, even the Demon God Emperor may indeed succumb to him.
Long Haochen nodded silently, “Grandpa Yang, I have never blad the Alliance in my life. I know that everyone is doing all they can for . Don’t worry, I will definitely pay attention to my own safety and do my best to avoid taking risks.”
Yang Haohan smiled at his reply, “That’s all for the best then. No matter what we may say, although you violated orders today, your performance enabled us to obtain a great victory. This battle let us weaken the enemy forces, making our Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass gain in stability. Old Long, how about from now on these two participate in the. etings of the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass? Since we are training successors, there’s no harm in increasing our pace a bit.
Long Tianying acquiesced; “Maybe. I will convene a military eting right now. You two can co along.”
Yang Haohan remarked, “Old Long, the news about this Divine Snail Shield of Sun and Moon of Haochen’s was very sudden. I am going back to the Alliance for a trip. Since the Holy War has reached this stage, we have to think over the future. I am going to assemble the Six Great Temples for a eting, so I am leaving the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass to you for the mont.”
Long Tianying and Yang Haohan having worked together so many years, he imdiately understood the aning hidden behind his words, and nodded with no hesitation, “Be at ease with
here. In any case, if it cos to the worst, then we can just... ”
At this mont, he stopped in the middle of his sentence. The two Divine Knights then exchanged glances, their eyes bitingly cold.
Long Haochen and Han Yu had a start. Although Long Tianying didn’t say it clearly, it could be understood from his words that the Knight Temple seed to actually have other trump cards, that would even be able to resist against the eight demon gods leading the armies. These six thousand years of preparations were indeed not for nothing.
Long Tianying and Yang Haohan had a simple conversation, before taking Long Haochen and Han Yu straight into the conference room of the Knight Temple.
The Dragon Resisting Mountain didn’t have a separate military force. Its defense was entirely under the control of the Knight Temple; and as a Divine Knight, Long Tianying was considered chief of the military. When Long Xingyu was still present, Long Tianying had been planning on passing this role onto him. The problem was that the relationship between father and son was not so good, and Xingyu had his own plans. So after a certain period of ti, he returned the supre authority to control the Knight Temple’s military to his father, and went to seek after an even greater power.
At the current ti, the conference room could be described as absolutely dazzling. At the ti Long Haochen and Han Yu followed Long Tianying to enter the conference room, they saw at least twenty Gold Essence Foundation Knights, with so of them being very high ranked officers clad in legendary tier armor.
Long Tianying’s authority in the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass was unquestionable. As soon as he entered, all the knights present stood, placing their right fists on their chest, producing a resonant tallic sound.
Long Tianying took Long Haochen and Han Yu to the main seat, where he signalled the high ranked officer to sit down, before sitting down as well. Naturally, Long Haochen and Han Yu didn’t have seats of their own, and stood behind Long Tianying.
Yet Long Haochen actually beca the focal point of everyone present.
Gold Essence Foundation Knights were all well known figures among Saint Knights, and were therefore quite familiar with each other. Behind every Gold Essence Foundation Armorwas a powerful, well-known Saint Knight. As a newcor, Long Haochen was clearly not familiar to these veterans, but in the previous battle, he could be said to be the most dazzling. The shock from that seven-colored light, which got rid of two famous Fiend Commanders, created a peak of morale for all the knights present, so he remained deeply in the mories of these high-placed knights. Therefore, although they didn’t know who this newly promoted Gold Essence Foundation Knight was, their looks were full of goodwill towards him.
Seeing everyone present sitting down, Long Tianying declared, “Today, we acquired an unexpected victory, as we repelled for another ti the demon attacks. I can see in each of you the glory of a knight. Let
introduce these two at my back to everyone. This is Han Yu. I believe that you have seen him before, he’s one of your juniors, and the only grandson of the Saint Knight Han Qian who is currently taking care of a lot of affairs while keeping watch on the Alliance. After discussing this with the Alliance Head, we decided that from today onwards he will also be qualified to join all the military conferences taking place in the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass as a visitor.”
The group of knights remained silent, and only nodded in response. To say nothing of his identity as the only grandson of Han Qian, his performance in the Holy War was enough to gain approval from these high-placed officers: killing the enemy without fear, giving appropriate orders to his subordinates,and before he turned thirty, he had already beco a Temple Knight of the seventh step. With these feats, obtaining special treatnt from the Temple was nothing surprising. Everyone here could see that Long Tianying was putting effort into cultivating Han Yu to serve as a major character among the future generation. Given his outstanding performance, he would very possibly beco a Divine Knight in the near future.
Han Yu took a step forward, bowing with a standard knight salute, before returning behind Long Tianying.
Long Tianying shifted his gaze on Long Haochen, “This one is a newly promoted Gold Essence Foundation Knight. On him is the 12th Gold Essence Foundation Armor. I believe that everyone saw his performance in the battlefield.”
For the mont, I cannot give a more detailed introduction of him to everyone. You can call him Twelfth Golden Knight. Including that shield that you all saw in the battlefield, his strength was entirely acquired through his own ability, without support from the Alliance. I announce hereby that he will be temporarily acting as a Saint Knight Head, commanding all the Mythril Foundation Knights.
With this re declaration, comnts imdiately overflowed, shocking even the person concerned. How could he know that his grandfather would actually bestow on him such an important task?
A Saint Knight Head? In the Knight Temple, this position is the highest below only the few Divine Knights and Saint Knight Elders.
Sitting below, an elder made a comnt, “Head, isn’t this choice kind of sloppy? Besides, we are unfamiliar with this newly promoted Gold Essence Foundation Knight.”
This elder was one of the few people not clad in full armor. He had short white hair arranged in order, a tall stature, and was clad in a white robe. His eyes seed to be glinting brightly, and, even with his ntal force, Long Haochen was unable to see through his actual cultivation. The space around his body faintly seed distorted.
Long Tianying declared to the elder, “Comrade, this decision was made by Alliance Head and I after deliberation. This Twelfth Golden Knight is a retired Demon Hunter, who made an extrely great contribution for the Alliance, and is totally suited for this post.”
The elder in the white gown looked down in approval, and beca silent. From Long Tianying’s appellation for him, one could see that this elder had a good position in the Knight Temple.
Long Tianying turned back to the other high ranked officers, “The duty of Saint Knight Head has been held by Han Qian for a long ti, but over the past years, he has mostly been participating in handling the official matters for the Alliance, and unable to lead the Saint Knight Regint to kill the enemy. I know that so of you, especially those that are Gold Essence Foundation Knights, are not convinced about the Twelfth Golden Knight’s ability. But the Temple would definitely not make a sloppy choice. I will rely reveal one of the accomplishnts he has done. If anyone here has done a greater accomplishnt than this, this declaration will be withdrawn, and the one taking the position of Provisional Saint Knight Head will be him.”
Hearing this, the whole assembly beca silent. As a Divine Knight, Long Tianying had an extrely high authority in the Knight Temple. And the Knight Temple’s military had been under his command for a long ti. So seeing him get angry, no one dared call his choice into question. Moreover, Long Tianying just said that this bestowed title was based on his contribution. Of everyone present here, who hadn’t made a heroic contribution for the Knight Temple? They wanted to hear what kind of incredible contribution he did, to the extent of outstripping the whole older generation.
After sweeping his gaze to everyone present, Long Tianying continued, “A short ti ago, Twelfth Golden Knight led his team in the depths of demon territory, and killed one of the demon gods, ranked seventy-second, Andromalius.”
Hearing this, he took a pause. In the eting room, so knights already had looks of disapproval.
Killing a demon god was certainly a great contribution, but the Snake Demon God Andromalius was rely ranked last. Although this was a good contribution, saying that it surpasses all the high ranked knights would feel far-fetched.
Long Tianying continued, “Furthermore, he destroyed the demon god pillar in Andromalius’ possession. Which is to say that, in the future, there will never appear another Snake Demon God.”
_Bam!_
A big commotion followed.
Killing the Snake Demon God isn’t much, but destroying a demon god pillar is a completely different matter.
Since the start of the dark era, a whole six thousand years had passed, yet humans had never recorded the destruction of a demon god pillar. They absolutely didn’t expect this feat to have been accomplished by this Twelfth Golden Knight.
This was the first ti a demon god pillar got destroyed, which carried an incomparable aning. This ant that humans finally found a way to destroy demon god pillars, and sway the demons’ foundation. Let alone the ones present here, even in the whole Temple Alliance, this contribution was second to none.
