Chapter 266: Holy War

Yue Shen: "??? ā€

I don't seem to have done anything worthy of getting the demons to name and hand me over to the Templar Alliance, right?

Not to mention that Han owed them at this time, even Yue Shen himself was stunned. Although it is true that there are many secrets that he can't be known, in his opinion, it is not so serious.

How could he be compared to Austin Griffin by the demons?

Yue Shen's performance was also seen by several people around him, especially Yang Haohan, who directly grabbed Yue Shen's arm and sensed Yue Shen's psychological changes at this time.

The shock that this passage brought to Yue Shen was not too great, so that he didn't even notice Yang Haohan's actions, and it took a while before he finally came back to his senses.

"It's strange, you kid really don't know why the demons want you." Yang Haohan looked puzzled, let go of Yue Shen's shoulders and said.

"I—I don't know." Yue Shen said a little sluggishly.

"You wait a minute." Han Yao suddenly asked, "Haven't you been staying in the Holy City with your teammates all this time?" When was the Snake Demon God Demon God Pillar destroyed? You say you're a witness, but what's going on? ā€

Fortunately, Thor can take the blame, and there is no need to expose himself and Long Haochen holding the Tower of Eternity, the necromancer's inheritance. Yue Shen only thought about it for a while, and then told him about giving him Thor's teleportation beacon before Long Haochen led the team out to execute.

Then it was Long Haochen and the others who encountered the snake demon god who ranked seventy-second among the seventy-two pillar demon gods of the demon clan in the dark swamp, and how he helped them solve the matter of the snake demon god together.

"Are you saying that just you and Haochen and their handsome demon hunting group with a sixth-order cultivation per capita can kill the snake demon god with the blessing of the Demon God Pillar?" Han Yao asked a little puzzled: "Although it is true that the Snake Demon God is the weakest of the Seventy-two Pillar Demon Gods of the Demon Clan, if you want to kill him with the blessing of the Demon God Pillar, at least you have to be an old king-level demon hunting group to be able to do it." ā€

"Not really." Yue Shen shook his head, and then said the more specific situation at that time.

The few people didn't speak again, but quietly listened to Yue Shen tell him all about his experience in the dark swamp.

Although they were all surprised that there was still a necromancer inheritance in the Holy Demon Continent, for them, the more important thing was obviously Haoyue, who had the ability to defeat the Demon God Pillar.

"It's no wonder why the demons don't hesitate to launch a holy war against us, and they want us to hand over Haoyue." Speaking of this, Han Yao seemed to suddenly think of something, "Then why, the demon clan still wants us to hand you over?" ā€

"I don't know ......," Yue Shen shook his head and said.

"Is it like a son of reincarnation in our Assassin Temple?" Ying Suifeng, who had been silent for a long time on the side, suddenly asked, and at this time put forward his own opinion.

Yue Shen didn't speak, but he instinctively felt that the Demon Clan hadn't decided to ask the Temple Alliance to hand him over out of this consideration.

"But with Yue Shen's current strength and cultivation, it shouldn't be enough to attract the attention of the demon clan." Han Yao shook his head and said.

"Yue Shen, think about it again, have you had any contact with any characters from the Demon Clan recently?" Sanshui asked Yue Shen.

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Except for the snake demon god, it is the prince of the demon clan. After thinking about it for a while, Yue Shen remembered what happened to him in Dream Heaven at the beginning, and explained what happened to everyone again.

"You mean, at that time, when you had just entered the middle of the sixth order of cultivation, you defeated the demon prince who had entered the eighth order of cultivation in a single battle?" Yang Haohan motioned for everyone to be quiet, and then asked Yue Shen, "But what you and Long Haochen told us at that time was that you and that little girl from the Assassin Temple joined forces to defeat them. ā€

Yue Shen knew that they would definitely ask themselves this kind of question, so he was also prepared early, and replied calmly: "Because of the prohibition of the Dream Heaven, the cultivation of the demon prince has also been suppressed to the level of the sixth order, and I am not completely without the strength to fight. At that time, there were three demons who tried to kidnap the will of the goddess of nature, and since time was pressed at the time, I said that it was our alliance with the will of the goddess of nature that we were able to repel them. ā€

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ā€

After listening to Yue Shen's explanation, Yang Haohan fell into deep thought.

The explanations made by Yue Shen were all tenable, and he didn't find any signs of Yue Shen lying, that is, he really didn't know why the Demon Clan would ask the Temple Alliance to hand him over by name.

"Looks like that's the case." After a brief silence, Sanshui was the first to speak: "The reason why the Demon Clan asked us to hand over Yue Shen is because we are worried that he will become the Bright Sword God of the next Warrior Temple and the reincarnation son of the Assassin Temple in the future. ā€

"That's all I can say." Han Yao nodded in agreement.

Shadow followed the wind did not speak, but hammered his chest twice with a look of regret. It was clear that their Assassin Temple was the first to know about Yue Shen's existence, but it was the granddaughter of the old woman in Sanshui who took the lead.

"You don't seem to be worried about us handing you over, huh?" Yang Haohan had been paying attention to the changes in Yue Shen's expression, but found that he hadn't seen any trace of nervousness and worry on his face from beginning to end, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Don't you know that our old bones are here, and you won't have any chance of escaping?" ā€

怑

After listening to Yang Haohan's question, Yue Shen was stunned for a moment before nodding and replying, "I know that with my strength, I will definitely not be able to escape from the hands of the hall masters. ā€

"Old Yang?" Han Yao just wanted to say something, but found that his mouth couldn't make any sound.

"It's a test for him." The next moment, Yang Haohan's voice sounded in his ears, "As the leader of the Holy Alliance, it is necessary for me to figure out how much Yue Shen is worthy of us for him. ā€

"I don't think the Holy Alliance is going to hand me over, so I don't have to worry about that at all." Yue Shen continued.

"Tell me what you think." Yang Haohan motioned for Yue Shen to continue.

"I'm not really sure if the alliance will hand me over, but Haoyue, who has the power to destroy the Demon God Pillar, the alliance will never hand it over." Yue Shen thought for a moment and continued: "And handing over me alone alone can't make the Demon Clan stop the Holy War, so the Holy Alliance will not make such a decision. ā€

"You're pretty smart." Yang Haohan said approvingly: "It's really much better than my unsuccessful grandson." ā€

"If it's him, maybe his head will be hot, let me kill my relatives and hand him over, and let the demons retreat." Yang Haohan smiled and continued: "The Temple Alliance has been bullied by the Demon Race for six thousand years, and the time is so long that both humans and the Demon Race have forgotten who is the true master of this continent. ā€

"So, are we in the Templar Alliance planning to take over this holy war with the demons?"

"The matter has not been completely decided yet, and it will not be decided until the masters of the three temples of the Magic Temple, the Warrior Temple, and the Priest Temple have discussed it together." Yang Haohan glanced at Yue Shen with some meaning, "But these handfuls of old bones in front of you now resolutely disagree with handing you over." ā€

"......" Yue Shen did not speak again, but respectfully saluted the elders present.

"You are the child who grew up in our Knight Temple, and one of the heirs of our Knight Temple, how can you hand it over because the demon clan said a few words?" Han Yao said with a smile.

"The Assassin Templar and the Knights' Templar have always had a close relationship since ancient times, so there is no reason to sit idly by." Shadow Suifeng also spoke: "And if I hand you over to the demon clan like this, what if I can really quell the war?" They will then intensify their efforts to ask the Holy Alliance for the next Child of Light, the Holy Maiden of Reincarnation, and the Holy Maiden of Souls......"

At the same time, the meeting of the Demon Hunters held on the other side of the Great Conference Hall had ended.

"The meeting is over, why hasn't Yue Shen come back yet?" Chen Ying'er said with a frown.

"Don't worry, what can the boss do when he goes to their knights' department? We'll just talk to him about the content of the meeting later. Although Lin Xin also felt that something was wrong, he still proposed: "Why don't we go over to him now?" ā€

"You go to him first, and I'll talk to my grandfather first." Chen Ying'er hesitated for a moment, and asked the other teammates to go over to find Yue Shen first, and she went to explain the situation to her grandfather first.

"Okay, then Sakura, you will come to the knight's department to meet us later." Xue Meng nodded, and then led a few people towards the side door of the large conference hall.

"I didn't expect the demons to launch a holy war against our Holy Alliance, it seems that we are likely to carry out military missions for a long time like before." Lin Xin's face was very ugly, obviously very unaccustomed to the oppressive atmosphere in the barracks.

"Originally, I thought that we would have a longer retreat this time, and strive to make everyone break through to the seventh order of cultivation and raise the team level to the king level. At that time, even if the Demon Hunter Mission Tower has not been reopened, you will still be able to take the mission of the King-level Demon Hunter Group and go out on a mission. Jin Ruchuan sighed and said, "Unexpectedly, because of the holy war launched by the demon clan, even the king-level demon hunting group can't take the task that needs to enter the territory of the demon clan." ā€

The hall master of the Soul Temple also mentioned in the meeting just now that they should stay in the Holy City for the time being to rest or rest in the Holy City, and not go out during this time, and wait for the Holy Alliance to count the number of demon hunters at the king level and below who reside in the six major Xiongguan of the Temple Alliance, and then arrange the next process of their team, as well as which temple Xiongguan to go to for support.

After Chen Ying'er left the team, she also caught up with Chen Hongyu, who had already left the large conference room and was walking in the direction of their Soul Temple Summoner Department.

Several accompanying Soul Temple personnel naturally recognized Chen Ying'er's identity, and after seeing their own Temple Saintess, they all dispersed very consciously.

"Grandpa, why did you come to the Holy City?" After greeting a few elders she knew, Chen Ying'er also trotted forward and asked her grandfather, "Aren't there usually a few deputy hall masters who are responsible for organizing these meetings?" ā€

"Naturally, because the demons have declared war on us, there are some things that need to be discussed by the hall masters of our six major temples." At the meeting just now, Chen Hongyu also did not mention the Demon Clan's request to withdraw troops to the Holy Alliance, "And you girl, it's really uncomfortable." ā€

"Grandpa, I'm sorry, Sakura knows it's wrong,......" Chen Ying'er whispered.

Seeing that his granddaughter, who has always been obedient, suddenly put on this look of bowing her head and admitting her mistakes, Chen Hongyu also felt angry and funny.

"Okay, okay, if there's nothing to do, you can go back first." Chen Hongyu touched Chen Ying'er's head a little dotingly, "Grandpa still has some temple affairs to deal with here, so I don't have time to accompany you." ā€

"Uh-huh." Chen Ying'er hesitated slightly, but still told her grandfather the reason why Yue Shen didn't appear at the meeting just now, "Then grandpa, you go and get busy first, I won't bother you, and our team will bring Yue Shen to see you before the next mission." ā€

Looking at the back of his granddaughter trotting away, Chen Hongyu sighed and said, "Hey, the girl is not staying." ā€

Yue Shen didn't come to the meeting, he naturally knew about it. In other words, they had no intention of letting Yue Shen participate in this meeting at all.

"Next mission...... Chen Hongyu shook his head, turned around and walked back in the direction of the summoner department of their Soul Temple.

He naturally knew about Yue Shen's side of the matter. Speaking of which, he was also a little curious about what kind of character this knight named Yue Shen was.

It can make his granddaughter, who usually can't manage it at all, become obedient, and let his old wife praise him, even if it is used by the demons as a bargaining chip for the Temple Alliance to request a truce......

"Let's go and meet that kid when I have time......"

Inside Han Yao's office.

"Neither you nor your party can leave the Holy City until the upcoming meetings of the Six Great Temples are over." Yang Haohan asked Yue Shen as the Lord of the Knight Temple.

"Yes!" Yue Shen bowed and saluted, "My team and I are ready to go to the frontline battlefield to support at any time. ā€

Hearing Yue Shen say this, Yang Haohan also glanced at Han Yao and the two on the side, as if discussing how to place Yue Shen next.

"Yue Shen, Sakura can't be with you anymore." Suddenly, Sanshui's mother-in-law, who hadn't spoken for a long time, spoke.

"Why is that?" Without waiting for Yue Shen to ask, the shadow on the other side couldn't sit still.

In his opinion, Sanshui's mother-in-law's approach is really a bit incredible. It stands to reason that their soul temple should not show its attitude at such a time?
