Chapter 26: This is the terror of a Six-Winged Angel, didn't react in time, did you, old man!

Very quickly, Ye Ling entered the competition.

According to the Long Family rules, as long as the Demon Race is not eradicated, while training is permitted, the younger generation is strictly forbidden from enjoying any privileges within the family.

This applies to family descendants, and although Ye Ling is not a Long Family descendant, since he is a disciple, he must also abide by this duty.

Therefore, he went to register himself.

When registering, the examiner was somewhat surprised; after all, Ye Ling was indeed a genius-like figure, but he didn't say much and simply let him pass.

And Ye Ling also quickly entered the venue.

There were quite a few people at the Youth Knight Competition venue, including residents of Yulong Pass itself, Knights, and high-ranking officials from various Temples who had come here.

The layout of the venue was not festive; it leaned more toward the grim, murderous atmosphere that a frontier city like Yulong Pass should have.

This could be considered a major event for Yulong Pass, occurring once every five years.

Therefore, many powerful Knights who usually wouldn't appear had all come here, though Ye Ling couldn't name them.

After entering the venue, Ye Ling looked behind him, but he was quite helpless to find that the father and son of the Long Family were nowhere to be seen.

"Sure enough, being a Temple Hall Master is troublesome."

"Although their strength is heaven-defying, they still have to go and preside over any important matters within the Temple. Forget it, I'll just go by myself, it saves the trouble."

Ye Ling shrugged, not feeling any particular emotion.

He did, however, see a familiar figure.

"Ye Ling, you're here!" From the side, a cute and crisp voice reached Ye Ling's position.

Even without looking, Ye Ling knew it was Chen Ying'er.

He walked over immediately.

"Ying Er." Ye Ling nodded and greeted the little girl.

Chen Ying'er immediately walked to Ye Ling's side excitedly, but after a long while, she pouted with a bit of feigned petulance: "It's been three months, why didn't you think of coming out to see me?"

"Isn't this to complete the task you gave me of winning first place in the Youth Competition?"

"Don't I have to be serious?"

Ye Ling listened to Chen Ying'er's words and answered with a smile.

"Hmph, I'll let you pass!" Ye Ling's answer made Chen Ying'er very satisfied.

Looking at her cute expression, Ye Ling reached out his hand.

But in the end, he pulled it back.

Because Chen Ying'er had brought a guardian; an old man was following beside her.

The old man's stature was not particularly tall, but he was very sturdy, and his whole person shimmered with a quality of Void; standing there, even Ye Ling almost failed to focus on him.

If it weren't for Chen Ying'er, Ye Ling wouldn't even have noticed this person's existence.

"The old man following Ying Er?"

"That must be, well, that person."

Ye Ling pondered for a moment.

Without saying too much, he turned and bowed to the old man's position, saying: "Knight Ye Ling, greets Temple Hall Master Chen."

"Oh?" Chen Hongyu turned his head, looking at this boy who might steal away his granddaughter; he didn't have much of a temper, just asked simply: "You know me?"

"My teacher told me about Ying Er's identity." Ye Ling replied.

"No wonder, he is Long Xingyu's disciple after all." Chen Hongyu nodded, looking at Ye Ling, laughing inwardly.

Finally, the old man has found you.

Light Protection? Then let this old man take a good look at the terror of your Light Protection; I have never encountered a genius with the Light of Protection Physique in my entire life.

As this thought emerged, a flash of golden light instantly crossed Chen Hongyu's eyes and landed on Ye Ling.

As a Ninth Rank Spirit Master, Chen Hongyu possessed an ability: he could peer into a person's origin and detect the true essence of their abilities. He had also used this ability to forge a contract with his current life-bound summoned beast, the Four-Headed Chimera.

Moreover, he had once used this power to probe the Wind Elementalist, Magic Temple Hall Master Li Zhengzhi, who also started with eighty points of Spiritual Power.

Even though the other party did not resist, he had succeeded.

If that were the case, wouldn't it be simple to see through Ye Ling, who was only a Third-rank Knight?

Once this thought appeared, Chen Hongyu directly entered the act of probing.

However, to his surprise, just as he began to probe, a terrifying pressure suddenly emerged and was applied to him.

And in the next moment, he felt as if he had arrived in a space of light.

He was deeply trapped within this light, and even though he was a Ninth Rank Third Level Spirit Master with a full three hundred thousand points of Spiritual Power, at this moment he even had the illusion that he could not escape this place.

"What is this situation?"

"Six-Six-Winged Angel!"

Chen Hongyu was indeed somewhat stunned.

However, at this moment, he could perceive a violent radiance striking directly at his face. Looking forward, there was an Angel Goddess displaying three pairs of wings, slowly flying up.

Her whole body released a strange aura of light, constantly illuminating the surroundings; she was extremely holy, making it impossible for one to harbor any thoughts.

Just looking at her, one even had the feeling of kneeling and submitting to the light.

Although with Chen Hongyu's ability, he wouldn't actually kneel or submit.

But this strange feeling left Chen Hongyu completely dumbfounded.

No, are you kidding me? I am a Ninth Rank Summoner, right?

He looked up at the Six-Winged Angel, unable to even see her face.

From the Six-Winged Angel, a sound suddenly rang out: "Begone!"

Instantly, pressure emerged on Chen Hongyu again, and in just a moment, he left that place.

"Hoo, hoo, hoo." The sudden dissipation of his spiritual body caused Chen Hongyu himself to suddenly feel a wave of pressure; he took a long breath, and only then did he feel slightly relieved.

However, it did not cause him any substantial harm; after all, he was a Ninth Rank Summoner, and everything that just happened was merely a psychological attack.

Very quickly, he calmed down.

"Just now, what was that?" Chen Hongyu asked, very puzzled.

Memories surged like a tide, instantly striking Chen Hongyu himself.

This feeling, while unusual, had an essence of pressure that Chen Hongyu found somewhat familiar.

It was as if it were the investigation conducted when Chen Ying'er was just born and it was known she was a Soul Saintess.

But? Why could Ye Ling be in the same situation as Chen Ying'er?

Chen Ying'er's Innate Internal Spiritual Power was ninety-two points, and what Chen Hongyu saw at that time was the Beast God! Could it be that Ye Ling was also someone favored by the gods??

This line of thought, like a blow to the head, struck Chen Hongyu directly, causing him to fall into a strange loop—could it really be?

"Grandpa? Grandpa? What are you spacing out for?" Chen Ying'er waved her hand in front of Chen Hongyu's eyes, looking at her grandfather with some surprise, wanting to know what was wrong with him.

Don't tell me he's gone silly? "It's nothing, I was just thinking about something and got a bit absorbed in it." Chen Hongyu smiled, then glanced at Ye Ling and continued: "Let's go, let's head in; it's about to start, I reckon."

Chen Ying'er did not notice Chen Hongyu's attitude, but Ye Ling caught it.

At first, he hadn't reacted.

But soon, he felt a distinct sensation from his Martial Soul, and the corners of his mouth curled into a silent smile.

It seems Chen Hongyu isn't being honest.

He must have used some secret technique to probe him just now, and then happened to get hit by the God's Martial Soul, the Six-Winged Angel.

Tsk, this is the terror of the Six-Winged Angel.

Old geezer, you didn't see that coming, did you! (End of chapter)
