Chapter 80: Wow, Ye Ling, it really is you!

"What did you say?" Long Xingyu looked toward Ye Ling's position in confusion, his expression stunned.

The appearance of a Demon God was not a terrifying matter for Long Xingyu, let alone a mere Seventh-first Demon God.

But if it appeared in Odin Town, it would absolutely be a catastrophic disaster. After all, Odin Town was a frontier, and the pressure of the war here was extremely immense; even counting Haoyue City, it was nothing much, as the biggest and strongest officials here were only Fifth Rank.

Moreover, there were no more than ten of them. Once he failed to suppress those members of the Demon Race, once even one was allowed to get out—even if it were just a Seventh Rank that Long Xingyu could crush with a casual flick of his hand—it would be enough to wipe out most of Haoyue City! By the time the Soul Temple on the side realized it and rushed here, everything would already be over. At that time, the entire Odin Town, and perhaps even the entire Haoyue City, would be plunged into misery. Do not underestimate the destructive capability of a Demon God, even if this Demon God was the weakest.

Ye Ling told Long Xingyu everything, and Li Xin also interjected halfway through, filling in all the details.

Long Xingyu: "."

He fell silent.

After a long while, his voice was hoarse: "It seems I have been too lax. It was actually right here in the Aoding Mountain, yet I never noticed it."

"Since that is the case, then let us go and resolve it." Long Xingyu pondered, then without hesitation, he stepped forward, Spirit Wings emerged from his back, and he slowly flew up, shouting: "Ye Ling, your sister is left to you, follow me."

Having said that, he flew away rapidly.

Leaving only the sister and brother behind, looking at each other in dismay.

"Are all Divine Seal Knights this eccentric..." Li Xin mused.

Ye Ling did not answer. Seeing Yating take action, his own Spirit Wings already flickered, and Ye Ling also scooped Li Xin up by the waist, shouting: "Let's go, Sis."

The two flew up instantly, leaving behind only Li Xin's "Ahhhhh" screams in place.

Soon, they arrived above the Aoding Mountain. Long Xingyu had been waiting there for a while, and then he saw the unfazed Ye Ling and the wind-blown, disheveled Li Xin... "Sis, are you okay?" Looking at Li Xin like this in his arms, Ye Ling asked softly.

"Looking at me like this, do I look like I'm okay?" Li Xin was speechless: "You really didn't give me a chance to react. I feel like even if I can step into the Sixth Rank in the future, I probably won't dare to fly. This is truly a fear of flying..."

Ye Ling chuckled.

However, little Yating on the side flew out slowly, and with a hint of helpless shyness, said: "Big Brother Ye, actually I wanted to say just now, you could have completely put down Miss Li Xin. After I evolved once more, this ability to grant wings also evolved..."

"Although I cannot complete it for those who have not been able to condense Spiritual Power, for Knights above the Third Rank, including you, I can grant an additional one."

Ye Ling: "Ah?"

Having said that, Yating's figure flashed, changing instantly. A burst of Spiritual Power flew toward Li Xin's position. The next moment, Li Xin only felt an itch on her back, and the next moment, a pair of small wings emerged from her back. Just as Li Xin left Ye Ling's body, she glided crookedly a few times and almost fell.

But as a Punishment Knight, her stability was still very strong.

She managed to fly beside Ye Ling, looking at him with a resentful face.

"What happened to the fear of flying?" Ye Ling teased.

"That might be because you don't know how to fly. But Sis has more talent in this area than you!" Li Xin retorted.

Watching the sister and brother bickering, Long Xingyu said helplessly: "You two, stop bickering for now. If I remember correctly, this should be the core area of the Aoding Mountain. According to what you said, the Wolf Demon God might be here?"

"Yes." Ye Ling nodded.

"I will investigate." Long Xingyu nodded, his eyes flashing. A layer of strange golden light emerged on his body; the Mental Power of a Divine Seal Knight was absolutely terrifying.

To put it in perspective, even if Long Xingyu's current Mental Power could not step into the Spirit Domain Realm, it definitely far exceeded that of an ordinary Spirit Abyss Realm.

This kind of terrifying Mental Power descended at once.

It instantly enveloped the entire Aoding Mountain to conduct reconnaissance.

After a long while, he shook his head: "Although there is indeed the aura of a Demon God Pillar and countless Wolf Demons, I cannot perceive their specific existence."

"This is going to be troublesome..."

Li Xin was anxious: "Aren't you a Divine Seal Knight? The power of the Throne should be able to suppress the Demon God Pillar, right?"

Long Xingyu gave a bitter smile: "It can indeed suppress it, but the Divine Seal Throne is not omnipotent."

Even the weakest Demon God Pillar is Epic-grade equipment, not to mention that it can also utilize a certain amount of the power of the First Demon God Pillar, a Super Artifact.

If he hides with all his might and does not use anything else, I am also at a loss."

A trace of despair appeared in Li Xin's eyes.

She was a native of Haoyue City and naturally had feelings for this city; this was her home. Odin Town was a branch town of Haoyue City. If Odin Town were gone, Haoyue City would certainly... But she did not make a scene; instead, she turned to look at Ye Ling. She knew that her younger brother must have a way!

Ye Ling turned to look at Long Xingyu and asked: "Teacher Xingyu, besides the Wolf Demon God, are there any other auras or other information present?"

"With the arrogant nature of those Demon Gods, plus the war readiness of Odin Town and Haoyue City here, how could he choose to completely hide his aura? I'm afraid there is some external force blocking it, right?"

Hearing this, Long Xingyu nodded and said: "There is, but that aura is far more terrifying than the Wolf Demon God."

"To the point that I would not be a match for it."

"What?" Ye Ling and Li Xin asked in unison. The only ones who could make Long Xingyu not a match were likely the top three... Ye Ling had already guessed. "The aura of a Moon Demon, and it is the aura of the Second Pillar Moon Demon God, Agares!" Long Xingyu said in a deep voice.

"What?" Li Xin was terrified.

This person was the most terrifying powerhouse today, second only to the Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu!

However, Ye Ling shook his head: "It cannot be Agares. Not to mention that according to the records in the Alliance, he has not appeared on the battlefield for over two hundred years."

"Even if he did appear, Haoyue City would absolutely not be his target! The Six Great Passes and the Holy City would be."

Long Xingyu nodded: "That is indeed the logic. It is likely his successor, or perhaps some Moon Demon who has received the grace of the Moon Demon God."

The Moon Demon God's successor? Could it be... her? A beautiful figure appeared in Ye Ling's mind. That was a woman, an extremely dangerous woman.

However, if it were this woman, there was still room for mitigation; she would not dare to offend the Humans too much right now. But Long Xingyu did not continue, instead extending his hand again. The next moment, a light emerged, turning into circles that instantly enveloped this place completely. He said: "I will temporarily bind this place. Once there is any sign of movement, they will not be able to leave my sight. If that Wolf Demon God dares to make a move, I will surely kill him at the first opportunity."

Li Xin was overjoyed to hear this, but she felt a little worried and said: "But, Hall Master Xingyu, you are a Divine Seal Knight and should be guarding the frontier. If you keep guarding here, then the frontier..." "Therefore, I do not intend to keep guarding here. It is best to resolve this matter quickly." Long Xingyu replied.

"What do you mean?" Li Xin was confused.

But Ye Ling reacted and said in surprise: "Pressing with a large army? Flattening them?"

"Hmm, but that is the last resort. Let's try to investigate the results first. The Soul Temple is much better at investigation than the Knight Temple, and is even on par with the Priest Temple."

"If they can take action, they are not only the best combat force, but they can also capture them."

Speaking of this, the corners of Long Xingyu's mouth curled into a smile as he looked at his disciple and teased: "Furthermore, if you go to the Soul Temple, you might just be able to see the person who wants to see you."

Hearing this, Ye Ling was stunned, thinking of Chen Ying'er's cute appearance.

That's right, ever since he went on the expedition, he hadn't seen that "little cutie" for a while. He hadn't thought of it before, but with this hint from Long Xingyu, could one say it was a business trip on public funds?

Moreover, it was not very far from here to Wanshou Pass, where the Soul Temple was located, so it was indeed true.

Thinking of this, Ye Ling immediately saluted and shouted: "I will strictly follow the order of the Divine Seal Knight!" This was official business.

Then, he turned sideways in an instant and shouted to Li Xin: "Sister Xin'er, hold on tight and go down, otherwise, after a certain distance, the Spirit Wings will dissipate."

"Then, during this time, search carefully within Haoyue City to see if there is a young girl who looks elegant, gentle, and holy, and usually wears purple or white clothes. If there is, try your best to stabilize her, but don't let her leave. If she is truly the person I guessed, then there will be some small trouble; she will be more dangerous than the Wolf Demon God."

After Ye Ling finished speaking, he slowly flew toward the location of Wanshou Pass.

Leaving only Long Xingyu and Li Xin, who were stunned, standing in place.

"Star Universe Hall Master? This?" Li Xin was puzzled.

"Listen to him." Although Long Xingyu was also stunned, he unconditionally trusted his disciple.

Wanshou Pass is a massive pass; in terms of city walls alone, it is even above Exorcist Pass and Yulong Pass, and it is extremely powerful. The brilliant Spiritual Power of Magic Beasts flashes all around, and from time to time, one can hear the sharp roars of Magic Beasts.

Although the distance between Wanshou Pass and Haoyue City is not very wide, the difference between the front and back is huge. At this moment, it is filled with a murderous aura, and it is clear that they are all well-trained soldiers.

Before Ye Ling had even descended from the sky, someone had already reacted. When they saw the wings behind his back, they were stunned for a moment and shouted: "Respected Radiant Knight."

"Wanshou Pass is a restricted area, please come down and accept an inspection."

Ye Ling immediately went down and stood in front of them.

This could not help but shock these city-guarding generals. A young Radiant Knight is common, but isn't this one a bit too young? He looks no different from a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy, and even his childishness is imitated exactly the same; he is truly impressive.

But his professional quality remained, and he asked immediately: "This Radiant Knight, do you have an entry token?"

The so-called entry token means that if you want to enter the pass, you must first have a token issued by the major branch halls or even the main hall, otherwise, you are not allowed in.

Ye Ling was stunned; he really forgot to ask for one when he came over.

"Sorry, if there is no entry token, we will not allow entry, unless there is a recommendation from a powerhouse above the Seventh Rank," the city-guarding general said helplessly.

"Seventh Rank?" Ye Ling was stunned. He took out the token that Long Xingyu had given him at the time from his Storage Equipment and said: "Will this work?"

The city-guarding general took one look and was dumbfounded: "Doom and Slaughter Order, this is the token of Star Universe Hall Master, the Divine Seal Knight!"

After speaking, he immediately turned around, opened part of the city gate, and shouted: "Please enter!"

Anyone who can obtain a Divine Seal token must have been recognized by a Divine Seal Knight, so they would definitely not be a spy of the Demon Race!

Ye Ling did not say much and stepped in, his heart also feeling a bit excited.

Inside the hall, Chen Ying'er was currently wearing an Artifact refined from one hundred and eight Spiritual Pills. It was the supreme treasure of the Soul Temple, the Soul Sacred Garment, which was extremely powerful and is now mastered by the Soul Saintess.

Only now, Chen Ying'er was frowning her cute brows; it seemed that her cultivation was not going smoothly and was relatively difficult.

"Woo, there's still no way."

"The Chaos Body is too powerful; with my current strength, I cannot intervene at all."

Chen Ying'er said with some regret.

"No, you are flustered."

"Ying Er, since you returned from Yulong Pass, your heart has been restless. You aren't still thinking about that kid Ye Ling, are you?" Chen Hongyu's eyes were helpless.

Chen Ying'er's pretty face flushed, and she said: "I—I don't have one!"

"Stabilize your mind, don't try to trigger the power of the Soul Sacred Garment and the Chaos Body for now. First, properly improve your own Spiritual Power, and then talk about breaking through," Chen Hongyu advised.

Just at this moment, a guard wearing a Summoner robe walked over from the side, bowed, and shouted: "Hall Master Chen, someone wants to see you; they are waiting outside the main hall."

"Didn't I say I wouldn't see guests during this time?" Chen Hongyu shook his head.

"I originally said the same, but he is holding the token of Divine Seal Knight Long Xingyu, representing the face of the Divine Seal Knight. How could I reject him?" the guard said helplessly.

"Long Xingyu?" Chen Hongyu was puzzled. Could it be that kid? He asked hurriedly: "What does this messenger look like?"

"A Radiant Knight, but his art of disguise is quite strong. He looks like a boy, about twelve or thirteen years old, and still carries a bit of childishness. I was actually quite curious to ask him how he disguised himself," the messenger said happily.

But after he said this, a fragrant breeze suddenly came from the side. In an instant, Chen Ying'er rushed out with her bare little feet. The speed was so fast that the guard was stunned.

After rushing out, she saw a handsome-looking boy standing there. When he saw Chen Ying'er come out, he looked at her in surprise: "Eh, Ying Er, I was just looking for you. I didn't expect you to be here too."

"Where is your grandfather, Hall Master Chen?"

Hearing this familiar voice, Chen Ying'er's longing broke through, and tears were about to overflow from her big eyes. She wanted to step forward and hug Ye Ling, but she timidly pulled her hands back.

After a long while, she was stunned and shouted: "Ye—Ye Ling, it really is you."
