159: Warriors and knights are one family, aria!

After the eighth-rank Warrior said those words, Qiu Yonghao didn't hesitate.

A contract appeared in his hand, and he charged directly towards the Warrior, instantly binding him completely and entering a mysterious contract state.

The eighth-rank Warrior wanted to resist.

But he knew that if he truly resisted this time, it would be over.

So, he chose to back down.

He accepted it honestly.

After the contract ended, Qiu Yonghao turned towards Long Xingyu, bowed respectfully, performing the Warrior Temple's warrior salute, and asked, "Brother Xingyu, are you satisfied with this situation?"

"Brother Qiu, each Temple manages its own affairs, so how could I have any opinion?" Long Xingyu smiled.

He explained it this way.

Although directly executing him would also be a result, being sent to the Prison Hall was more painful than death.

Even if severe measures were needed in troubled times, such a powerful individual would not be easily killed after weighing the pros and cons; this was one of the best outcomes.

Once Long Haochen achieved the eighth rank, he wouldn't need to worry about any of this.

After all, as the Child of Light, if he was already an eighth-rank and still feared others making a move, that would be too much of a failure!

Soon, after these matters concluded, they had no intention of staying there any longer.

After Qiu Yonghao instructed everyone present not to reveal any information, they returned to their private room.

Upon their return, Saint Moon and Yang Haohan slowly looked over.

However, there wasn't much worry on their faces.

After all, if Long Xingyu couldn't even handle such a matter, he wouldn't be Long Xingyu.

Immediately upon returning to the private room, Qiu Yonghao looked at Long Haochen and asked if he could bring out the Aria of the Goddess of Light.

Long Haochen didn't hesitate at all.

He nodded immediately, then took out the divine sword and temporarily handed it to Qiu Yonghao.

When Qiu Yonghao saw this divine sword, which represented the former Commander Ye and the former Brother Ye Wushang, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

He couldn't help but be reminded of old friends, and tears welled up.

Seeing all this, Long Haochen was a little puzzled and looked at Long Xingyu for an explanation.

Long Xingyu then directly explained the relationship between Ye Wushang and Qiu Yonghao.

Hearing this, Long Haochen suddenly understood and nodded.

He indicated that he understood everything.

After a while, Qiu Yonghao composed himself.

He returned the Aria of the Goddess of Light to Long Haochen and thanked him, saying, "Thank you, Hao Chen.

If not for you, I probably wouldn't have been able to see Commander Ye's sword again and watch it shine once more!"

Qiu Yonghao spoke very earnestly.

The current Long Haochen was no longer the Long Haochen from before; he was very clear about right and wrong.

He also knew the value of the Aria of the Goddess of Light, so he didn't say anything about returning anything to him.

He just nodded and said, "If I can help Temple Master Qiu, it is my honor."

With that, he took back the Aria of the Goddess of Light, allowing it to return to his body.

Qiu Yonghao also forced himself to momentarily shift his gaze away from Long Haochen and the Aria of the Goddess of Light.

He then looked at Long Xingyu and said, "Brother Xingyu, we can now continue with our previous ideas.

Once Commander Ye's divine sword appears, even those stubborn individuals in the Warrior Temple will have no choice or resistance.

You can rest assured and choose to cooperate in this situation."

Qiu Yonghao spoke very seriously.

It was clear that he intended to quickly finalize the cooperation between the Knight Temple and the Warrior Temple.

He wanted to implement this matter as soon as possible.

Although it would be impossible for the Aria of the Goddess of Light to remain in the Warrior Temple in the future, at the very least, Commander Ye's sword intent and even more could remain in the Warrior Temple, and that would be enough!

"No problem," Long Xingyu nodded.

Now that the Aria of the Goddess of Light was in Long Haochen's hands, his objective had been achieved.

Since that was the case, they should leave.

Soon, everyone left the area.

The group silently headed to the Warrior Temple.

Originally, many individuals within the Warrior Temple were still planning and waiting for Temple Master Qiu Yonghao of the Warrior Temple to return.

They hoped that upon his return, these powerful individuals would be able to discuss their plans and ideas with Qiu Yonghao again.

However, they truly hadn't expected that when the door opened, not only Qiu Yonghao would enter, but also Long Xingyu, Yang Haohan, and Saint Moon—these powerful individuals!

Seeing this, everyone was stunned.

A Vice Hall Master of the Warrior Temple immediately looked at Qiu Yonghao and asked, "Hall Master, what are you doing?

Why did you bring these three Hall Masters here?"

The Vice Hall Master was a little confused.

He wanted to know the specific situation.

What exactly had happened?

Could it be that Qiu Yonghao was coerced?

But that was impossible!

Although Qiu Yonghao didn't possess a divine artifact, with his supreme sword intent, even if these three teamed up, they couldn't coerce him.

After all, they were in Holy City, and Qiu Yonghao could hold out until reinforcements arrived.

Qiu Yonghao ignored him and spoke to himself, "From now on, the Knight Temple, the Warrior Temple, and the Assassin Temple will form an alliance, with the Knight Temple as the leader, to help the Knight Temple become the first, and a dominant first at that!"

Qiu Yonghao knew the Magician Temple's requirement.

Two more tenths!

In other words, if the Magician Temple's points were one thousand, the Knight Temple would need at least twelve hundred points.

Therefore, he intended to sacrifice the interests of their Temple to help the Knight Temple.

And the purpose, naturally, was also very simple.

However, the others didn't know.

Upon hearing Qiu Yonghao's words, all the powerful individuals of the Temple were stunned on the spot.

They looked at Qiu Yonghao in confusion and immediately asked, "Hall Master, what is going on with you?

Didn't you agree to team up with the Magician Temple?

What kind of bewitching potion were you given?

How could you change your mind directly after only being out for less than two hours?

No, this sudden change of heart—if it fails later, we may not be able to bear the consequences!"

This group of high-ranking Warrior Temple officials spoke one after another.

Then, looking at Long Xingyu and Yang Haohan, they turned back to Qiu Yonghao; they truly didn't understand what had happened.

"You must be extremely confused by my sudden change of plans."

"But, I believe that when the next item is brought out, you will also understand my purpose."

Qiu Yonghao said this.

All the powerful individuals naturally didn't believe him.

But as Qiu Yonghao looked at Long Xingyu, and Long Xingyu looked at Long Haochen, and Long Haochen brought out the Aria of the Goddess of Light, the powerful individuals present suddenly changed.

That? Is that Commander Ye's divine sword? (End of this chapter)
