Chapter 117: Temporary Pause in the War
The powerful human being finally arrived at the Exorcist Pass.
The fire puppets that were left behind did not have time to retreat and were instantly killed by the gray figure that rushed to the front.
The bodies were scattered all over the ground, and even the flames on their bodies slowly went out.
The gray figure gradually slowed down, revealing its true appearance.
The leader of the Assassin's Temple, the ninth-rank hero Shengyue.
The tall and lanky Sheng Yue was filled with murderous intent, with a hint of worry between his brows.
His eyes swept across.
But when Sheng Yue saw Ye Tian, his expression was obviously stunned.
Ye Tian raised his hand and waved gently, "Master Xiazhe, long time no see."
"Why are you here, kid?"
Sheng Yue took a step into the void, and when he reappeared, he was beside Ye Tian.
Ye Tian shrugged helplessly, "I didn't want to either, but the general manager is Cai'er's father, so he called me to the battlefield temporarily."
"What nonsense!"
Sheng Yue scolded with a sullen face.
Even with just a few words, Shengyue could roughly guess what had happened.
Ye Tian is now the apple of the eye of the Knights Templar, but Sheng Lingxin put him in danger because of his own selfish desires.
“Where is the Holy Spirit Heart?”
Shengyue glanced around with a bad look on his face, but did not find the Holy Spirit Heart.
This made the annoyance in his heart disappear for a brief moment, and deep worry filled his heart again.
"Don't worry, Master Xiazhe. The General is fine for now, but the situation is not very good."
As Ye Tian spoke, he used the power of the Void Spirit Furnace to release the Holy Spirit Heart from the alien space.
Shengyue reached out and grabbed Shenglingxin's wrist.
Gentle spiritual energy slowly flows in, nourishing the body of the Holy Spirit.
However, after finding out Sheng Lingxin's current situation, Sheng Yue frowned slightly and his expression was not very good.
At this moment, a group of Mithril Pedestal Knights also arrived at the scene.
Gao Yingjie looked surprised, "Ye Tian, why are you here?"
"It's a long story," Ye Tian looked at Gao Yingjie calmly, but did not tell him what happened before.
It's okay to complain to Shengyue, but there's no need to tell Gao Yingjie.
We should always give some face to our cheap father-in-law, right?
"Let's go back first."
Sheng Yue spoke in a deep voice, successfully terminating the conversation.
Seeing this, Gao Yingjie stopped asking questions.
Shengyue took the lead and headed towards the Exorcism Pass with the Holy Spirit Heart, while Ye Tian sat on Xiaorou and returned with Gao Yingjie and ten other Mithril Pedestal Knights.
"You are so brave, you actually dare to charge with the Glorious Knights. Don't you know how dangerous the battlefield is?"
Halfway through, Gao Yingjie couldn't help but said in a deep voice.
Those are three demon gods. I feel scared just thinking about it.
You have to know that the reason why these Mithril Base Knights were able to become the leaders of this new demon hunting group was because of Long Haochen, the Son of Light.
But after that competition, Gao Yingjie was suddenly entrusted with an important task.
We must ensure Ye Tian’s safety at all costs.
I wasn't paying attention for a short while, and this kid ran out of the Exorcist Gate. If something really happened, Gao Yingjie didn't know how to explain to the Knights Templar.
"Hey, Captain Gao, I'm fine, right?"
Ye Tian laughed and laughed, but his eyes suddenly changed.
"But Captain Gao, you clearly promised something before you set out, but you disappeared as soon as you reached the exorcism level. Isn't that a bit bad?"
Gao Yingjie, who was outmaneuvered, froze instantly.
Seeing Gao Yingjie's embarrassment, Ye Tian couldn't help but chuckle.
Nor did he continue to be aggressive.
"Forget it this time, but in the next battle, Captain Gao shouldn't disappear, right?" Gao Yingjie nodded helplessly, his voice extremely low.
"Don't worry, I keep my word."
"That's fine," Ye Tian nodded with satisfaction, "But don't worry, Captain Gao, I won't let you take on all the responsibilities in the future battles just for the sake of merit. Most of the time, I will focus on cultivating team tacit understanding."
"Unless it's an absolutely dangerous situation, Captain Gao, you only need to protect the rear."
Hearing this, Gao Yingjie slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
This boy is more mature than he thought.
And with Ye Tian as the leader, the No. 1 Soldier-level Demon Hunting Group may be able to survive various fierce battles in the future.
Without any obstruction from the demons, the group successfully returned to the Exorcist Pass.
This also symbolizes that the demon army's siege has temporarily come to an end.
The logistics troops in Exorcist Pass began to clean up the battlefield and collect the corpses of high-level demons, while the vast majority of ordinary demon corpses were collectively burned.
Ye Tian did not return to the barracks, but followed Gao Yingjie to the edge of the city wall.
This is a place dedicated to treating the injured generals, and quite a few people have gathered in the spacious room.
Sheng Lingxin was lying on a bed, while Sheng Yue, Lan Yanyu and several high-ranking generals of the Exorcist Pass were surrounding him.
"Master Xiazhe, how is the situation of the holy brother?"
Gao Yingjie couldn't help but ask with concern.
Sheng Yue shook his head. "My life is saved, but I will need at least a month to recover from my injuries."
"It's really thanks to Ye Tian this time, otherwise Ling Xin might not be able to return to the Exorcist Pass alive."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present looked towards Ye Tian.
Facing so many gazes, Ye Tian was not afraid, but smiled modestly, "Master Xia, you are too kind. If it weren't for your timely support, the three demon gods would not have left."
"I told you to call me great-grandfather."
Shengyue suddenly said this.
Ye Tian was slightly startled.
However, after seeing the other person's serious expression, he could only nod slightly.
"Great-grandfather."
This title naturally surprised everyone present, especially Lan Yanyu, who looked at Ye Tian almost in disbelief.
His face turned pale and he wanted to say something, but he was frightened by Shengyue's cold eyes and was speechless.
'Is this a platform for yourself?'
When this thought popped into his mind, Ye Tian laughed in his heart.
At this moment, Gao Yingjie spoke again, "Master Xiazhe, I want to know why Ye Tian appeared on the battlefield?"
As soon as these words came out, Lan Yanyu's face turned even paler.
Even Shengyue's expression didn't look very good.
After a moment of silence, Sheng Yue couldn't help but sighed and turned to look at Sheng Lingxin who was lying on the bed, "It was all this kid's stupidity!"
"Don't worry, I will give an explanation to the Knights Templar."
"This"
Gao Yingjie's expression changed slightly, and a guess emerged in his mind.
But since Shengyue said so, he naturally wouldn't insist on it and could only nod silently.
Seeing this, Holy Moon turned to the others.
"The war is over for now, you all go down and rest first!"
"Ye Tian, stay for a while."
Seeing such an obvious order to leave, the others were naturally quite tactful and left together after greeting each other.
For a moment, only Lan Yanyu, Sheng Yue and Ye Tian were left in the room.
Oh, and the Holy Spirit Heart lying unconscious in bed.
After everyone left, Sheng Yue's face suddenly turned gloomy.
