Chapter 10: “Redemption”, The Praise of Yulong Pass Soldiers!

Long Xingyu, having clarified what he needed to do next, refocused his attention on the battlefield.

Looking at the countless wounded soldiers below, a strange golden light flickered in Long Xingyu's eyes.

“They are all heroes fighting on the front lines for humanity,” Long Xingyu thought to himself.

He could make anyone feel disheartened, but for these individuals fighting on the front lines, Long Xingyu naturally couldn't let them feel disheartened. He pressed his sword and solemnly shouted, “Redemption.”

As soon as he spoke, a strange light burst forth from the Doomsday and Slaughter Throne. A dozens-of-meters-tall angel appeared above the Throne, making an embracing gesture. Immediately, it transformed into countless sweet dews, with showers of light, sprinkling across the sky.

The countless knights below who received this holy sweet dew, whether wounded or on the verge of death, were all healed at this moment. Layers of golden light appeared on their bodies, shimmering with beautiful radiance, and their internal injuries were automatically healed.

Upon sensing all of this, these knights were somewhat astonished.

“My injuries are completely healed!”

“Mine too! And there are no side effects at all. My spiritual energy even improved quite a bit.”

“Same here.”

“What terrifying healing ability is this?!”

Countless knights were shaken by this act; this sudden healing truly startled them.

Soon, they all sensed the change and found the source of their healing.

Immediately, the countless knights looked up.

They looked at the Doomsday and Slaughter Throne, shimmering with crimson gold, and at their Knight Temple Hall Master, the Divine Seal Knight of Judgment and Adjudication, Long Xingyu.

“It’s Hall Master Xingyu! Hall Master Xingyu saved us!”

“Yes, that’s Hall Master Xingyu’s Power of Redemption. It was that Power of Redemption that completely healed us.”

“From despair to new life, Hall Master Xingyu not only repelled countless Demon Gods but now also used the Power of Redemption to heal us.”

Countless knights shouted amidst them, rising to their feet and silently bowing towards Long Xingyu, performing the most solemn Knight's Salute.

Knights are a profession of dignity and faith, and the highest Knight's Salute, even for the Knight Temple Hall Master, they would not perform casually.

But at this moment, they didn't care about that, because Long Xingyu was worthy of this Knight's Salute!

They didn't know exactly what had happened, but what they saw was Long Xingyu, one man and one Throne, fighting against two terrifying Demon Gods of Ninth Rank Fifth Level cultivation, completely driving them out of Yulong Pass!

And after killing countless demon creatures, he completely healed them!

Could this not warrant their Knight's Salute?

Seeing their posture, Long Xingyu's heart was somewhat ignited with a sense of courage.

To these knights, he was hope!

Because they knew that he had the possibility of completely suppressing the demon race, driving them completely out of the Holy Demon Continent, and returning a bright future to humanity.

Or, it could be said like this:

He was their hope!

At this moment, Long Xingyu also fell silent.

The Long family's ancestral teachings stated that the younger generation should not rely on family power; apart from what was essential, everything else needed to be earned by themselves.

Therefore, Long Xingyu had started as a soldier at the lowest level.

He knew the hardships of soldiers.

“Since such high hopes are placed on me, I will make sure everything is done perfectly.”

“The demon race will regret stepping into the Holy Demon Continent one day.”

Long Xingyu said solemnly in his heart. This was his promise to Yulong Pass, to the Temple Alliance, and to humanity!

And after he spoke these words, he also felt that his sense of belonging to this world had grown stronger, and all the memories he had previously mastered and possessed also became deeper.

Soon, after the Redemption healing was complete, Long Xingyu quickly returned to the Knight Temple Main Hall.

Not long after he returned, He Jun also rushed over.

Although he was a steady old Divine Seal Knight, so many things had happened that even he couldn't help but be extremely excited.

“Starry-Sky, I didn’t expect it. You actually broke through directly to Ninth Rank Fourth Level?”

“This threshold that has restricted you for so long, did you just break through it?”

“The Knight Temple has another terrifying powerhouse of Ninth Rank Fourth Level, and he’s a Divine Seal Knight. With the power of the Throne, he can unleash strength equivalent to Ninth Rank Sixth Level!”

He Jun asked, full of joy and delight.

He had watched Long Xingyu grow up and had always been very satisfied with him. Moreover, he was now the leading knight on the surface, representing the face of the Knight Temple. This situation naturally made He Jun extremely excited.

“I broke through right after our discussion,” Long Xingyu nodded.

Hearing this, He Jun seemed to understand something. It looked like Long Xingyu had resolved his inner conflict. No wonder he broke through overnight.

However, he said nothing.

He just laughed heartily and said, “Go early and come back early. I also want to see my grand-nephew.”

Hearing this, Long Xingyu nodded. He was indeed already preparing to go to Odin Town to find his wife and son.

Of course, he wouldn't be irresponsible. For now, he would still arrange everything at Yulong Pass properly, and then wait for his father, Long Tianyin, to return to Yulong Pass to take charge before heading to Odin Town.

The Knight Temple must have a Divine Seal Knight in charge; this was an unchangeable necessity.

However, as he thought about this, Long Xingyu suddenly turned his head and looked to the side. When He Jun came in just now, he wasn't alone; there was another person there.

“Brother Xingyu!” Upon seeing Long Xingyu turn to look at him, Han Zhige reacted immediately and called out.

“Zhige.” Long Xingyu was very familiar with Han Zhige. He had once guided him in cultivation. He was also currently the number one person below the Ninth Rank in the Knight Temple, a genius.

Similarly, he was also the son of the Paladin Commander, Han Qian.

And this also meant that, under the original circumstances, he was the father of Han Yu, his son Long Haochen’s attendant.

Thinking of Han Yu, Long Xingyu recalled that when he first appeared, his character was even somewhat twisted, only slowly recovering due to Long Haochen's influence. And the source of that twisted character was because his parents, Han Zhige and his wife, had fallen in battle against the Bear Demon God.

It seemed that by coincidence, he had changed many things.

However, it was also a good thing.

Thinking of this, Long Xingyu began to examine Han Zhige's cultivation.

One thing caught his attention.

Currently, Han Zhige's cultivation was at the peak of the Eighth Rank, only one step away from the Ninth Rank.

And he was about half a generation younger than Long Xingyu, currently only around fifty-four years old.

“Fifty-four years old, peak Eighth Rank, Divine Seals potential!”
