Chapter 638: Chapter 380: Saint Master Slays the Hawk King!

"They’ve come!"

The Heavenly Mechanism Banner Master, Fu Zhong, opened his eyes.

Lu Gong wrapped his long robe around himself and sighed, "It’s a bit chilly in the north, and the killing intent is heavy. My old bones are still weak."

After all, he wasn’t originally a Martial Artist, though he had cultivated to the Primordial Spirit, his physical body remained somewhat weaker.

But this elder, who once served as the Great Temple Priest of Qifeng Prefecture City, was blessed with an opportunity by the Wutong Divine Mother. After achieving Primordial Spirit, his mana contained the miraculous effect of "words become law."

In direct combat, perhaps Lu Gong’s mana was not as fierce and mighty as those in the Refining God Realm.

However, for any strong person of the Human Clan, Lu Gong’s mana was an extremely powerful support.

"Lu Gong, the situation doesn’t seem right."

Fu Zhong said, "The Taiyin Thunder Envoy and other high-ranking demons from the Demon Domain have restrained the various Sky Gang Flag Masters, especially on the flanks of the Heavenly Mechanism Flag, where the adjacent Sky Gang Flag lines... face even more evil than expected, and probably cannot reinforce us."

"The Heavenly Mechanism Flag isn’t good at frontal engagements, and as the new Flag Master, your skills aren’t yet proficient."

Lu Gong said, "In addition, the Heavenly Mechanism Flag’s defense lines haven’t been completely recovered, making it the weakest... Everyone knows you have old ties with the Saint Master."

Fu Zhong pondered, "So tonight, our Heavenly Mechanism Flag line will surely suffer a heavy blow! While the adjacent two Sky Gang Flag Masters are deeply entangled and unable to come to aid..."

He sighed, "With the Saint Master here, if anything happens, countless deaths cannot atone for the blame! I’m already beginning to regret agreeing to this..."

"I’ve calculated it, there is no other way."

Lu Gong said, "As long as the Saint Master is alive, the Demon Domain will undoubtedly attack fiercely unceasingly, Taixuan Divine Mountain will surely perish, and the land of the Three Prefectures will inevitably fall! You must know that besides the Demon Domain, other ancient demons also have eyes on the Saint Master!"

Thus, Lu Gong continued, "In the end, it’s because the name of the Saint Master is too grand, but his abilities aren’t strong enough! All the ancient demons see him as prey; once they hunt him down, the blessings from the Ancient Old Gods from all sides would allow them to ascend instantly!"

"Therefore, just protecting the Saint Master and guarding Taixuan Divine Mountain tonight is far from enough!"

"We must make sure that the Saint Master, following the victory from last night, achieves a glorious prestige!"

"We must ensure that the name of the Saint Master is no longer seen as prey in the eyes of the demons, but as a Human Clan Divine Blade that evokes fear in their hearts!"

Lu Gong said thus and continued, "Though this matter is extremely risky, there is no other way to protect Taixuan Divine Mountain!"

As his voice trailed off, he closed his eyes slightly, thinking to himself, "Lin Yan improves his skills with every slaying of demons, he’s a person who is naturally nurtured by battle."

Recognizing this, the elder already knew that Lin Yan, the Saint Master, should not just bury his head in books in the Book Repository, nor should he be just a decorative figure at the rear of the Human Clan!

This is a born Martial Artist, who slays demons and nurtures himself through battle!

Thus, among the high-levels of the Prefecture City and the Holy Land, he supported Lin Yan traveling outside, slaying demons, and opposed the decision of many high-levels wanting the Saint Master to sit safely at the rear!

It was also due to his insistence, along with the approval of the Great Temple Priest Lu Changsheng and others, that the high-levels of the Holy Land and Prefecture City abandoned the idea of keeping the Saint Master safely at the rear.

"Tonight, the challenge is not only to deal with the assault from the Demon Domain but also to make the high-levels of the Human Clan understand that the Saint Master became a Saint Master through battle!"

Lu Gong said thus again, "Fu Zhong, tonight is also your chance. The spy from the Demon Domain planted by your side needs to be removed..."

——

"Enemy attack!"

"Report! A Great Demon and two Evil Spirits, all of extreme ferocity and evil, each commanding over a thousand evil beings, have crossed the first line of defense!"

"Report! A hundred miles away, above the sky dome, the Yin Cloud obscures over a thousand Iron Wing Divine Eagles. The leading Great Demon exhibits a Qi Mechanism at the peak of the Refining God Realm!"

"Report! At the Seventh Mountain, a traitor caused chaos and assassinated the leading general; the line has collapsed!"

"Report! According to information from the Heavenly Kui Flag’s direction, two hundred miles ahead, the demon and evil spirit Qi Mechanism is extremely dense!"

"From this estimation, the number of demons and evil spirits in this Deceit Night exceeds six times the enemies of last night!"

"Report! The second line of defense is facing the enemy directly!"

"Report! On both flanks of our Heavenly Mechanism Flag, a large number of demons have invaded simultaneously, suspected internal spies assassinated two Sky Gang Flag Masters!"

"Report!"

As one military report after another came through!

Lu Gong came to Lin Yan’s tent.

Lin Yan, with the Night Illuminating Divine Sword hanging at his waist, was holding the Divine Bow.

"It’s not yet time for you to act!"

Lu Gong said, "I know you cherish human life the most and can’t bear to see the soldiers fighting on the front lines getting wounded, but if you draw the blade now, tonight’s matter will completely collapse; compassion doesn’t command soldiers..."

Lin Yan nodded slightly, heading towards outside the tent, and asked, "When should I act?"

"When the Iron Wing Hawk King thinks it’s time for you to act, you can act."

Lu Gong reached out his hand.

Lin Yan handed over the Divine Bow in his hand.

This Divine Bow was a human imitation of the Ancient Divine Bow from years past, barely reaching the tier of a divine artifact.

Later, it fell into the hands of the Great Divine Venerable of the Three Gods Valley, allowing that extremely fierce and evil spirit to possess a combat force nearly surpassing its tier.

This bow is extremely remarkable!

"Have you given this bow a new name?" Lu Gong suddenly asked.

"I haven’t!" Lin Yan responded.

"It’s said that the ancient Divine Bow was named the Illuminating Moon Divine Bow. This item, being a replica, has been given several different names over the millennia."

Lu Gong said, "Now, as its new owner, you should give it a new name."
