Sealed Divine Throne II: Twin Sons of Dragon
Chapter 131 - 131 65 Backup Sacred Legate_1

Chapter 131: Chapter 65 Backup Sacred Legate_1 Chapter 131: Chapter 65 Backup Sacred Legate_1 “Come up.” Old Master Ling waved towards his granddaughter and two grandsons.

Suddenly, a soft golden cloud appeared under their feet, carrying their bodies up and floating them towards the altar.

Stepping onto the altar and looking at the kindly expression on Old Master Ling’s face, Long Kongkong’s outgoing personality immediately shone through. “Hello Grandpa, I’m Long Kongkong.”

“Indeed, you look just like your brother. Dangdang told me about your retreat, which is why you couldn’t come earlier. Finally, we meet.” Old Master Ling chuckled.

Long Kongkong said, “Mum really kept us in the dark for too long. If we had known about you being our grandfather earlier, we wouldn’t have bothered trying so hard. Isn’t it better to simply be the third generation of the Sacred Legate? By the way, Grandpa, are you a Sacred Legate?”

Old Master Ling was smiling jollily, saying, “Indeed. I’m one of the Priests’ Temples’ Sacred legates. Kongkong, you need to understand that being powerful on your own is better than relying on others. That way, you’re the one who gets to call the shots. Are you interested in being a Sacred legate?”

“Me?” Long Kongkong pointed at his own nose, staring incredulously at his grandfather, and asked, “Even someone like me can become a Sacred Legate?”

Old Master Ling laughed heartily, saying, “What’s wrong with the way you are? You’ve been accepted by the Wisdom Spirit Furnace. There hasn’t been anyone who has written a contract with the Wisdom Spirit Furnace for thousands of years. Both you and your brother, as well as Menglu, have unique opportunities. The moment you were favored by the Wisdom Spirit Furnace, you were already made a reserve Sacred Legate of our temple.”

“Grandpa, my situation is a bit special, I don’t know if my cousin has already told you.” Dangdang finally spoke.

Old Master Ling smiled faintly and said, “Dangdang, existence validates rationale. At Spirit Furnace Academy, the Wise Ones are always by your side. There should be no room for accidents; everything is arranged for the best. You should trust the Wise Ones, and likewise, trust yourself.”

Upon hearing these profound words of wisdom from his grandfather, Dangdang couldn’t help but be slightly stunned.

Only then did Old Master Ling say seriously, “I have called you three here to represent the Sacred Legate in informing you that the future for you, who possess the Wisdom Spirit Furnace, will be limitless. However, also note that possessing the Wisdom Spirit Furnace means that from this moment on, you bear the heaviest of responsibilities.”

Long Kongkong said carelessly, “Grandpa, it’s peaceful times now. The demon tribe was eliminated thousands of years ago, what kind of responsibilities could we possibly have? And by the way, does being a reserve Sacred Legate come with any benefits? Can my brother exchange his Wisdom Spirit Furnace for something else?”

Old Master Ling said solemnly, “Each Wisdom Spirit Furnace is a treasure of our world, Kongkong, you should be respectful. The Spirit Furnace that Dangdang merged with is among the oldest in the world of the Wisdom Spirit Furnaces. It is a predecessor to us all and should not be disrespected.”

“Indeed, the demon tribe has been eradicated, but that doesn’t mean there are no other threats looming about. On the contrary, a significant threat is currently encroaching silently, posing a risk to the entire continent. This is why the Wisdom Spirit Furnace has chosen to come out and assist us. We face a potential existential crisis, and the Sacred Legate and the Spirit Furnace Academy have decided to attempt to mobilize the wise predecessors, to re-sign contracts with us and protect the continent.”

Dangdang was taken aback. He had suspected something earlier but was unprepared for the scale of the calamity. In his eyes, the power of the 6 Great Sacred Temples was unfathomable. After all, his and Kongkong’s tutors were mighty 9th Rank experts. Yet, even these powerful figures were not qualified to be Sacred Legates, indicating the formidable strength of the Sacred Legate. But judging from his grandfather’s tone and expression, this calamity was difficult even for the Sacred Legate to handle.

“Grandpa, what kind of calamity is it?” Dangdang asked solemnly.

Old Master Ling sighed and shook his head, saying, “It’s better if you don’t know now. All you need to know is that the challenges you’ll be facing in the future will be far more difficult than you can imagine. Your most important task now is improving yourselves. When you advance to the higher grades, you might have to become involved in dealing with the crisis.”

“Just now, Kongkong asked about the benefits of being reserve Sacred Legates. There certainly will be benefits, but not now. You must first prove that you have the potential to become Sacred Legates. As of now, you are too weak. In the future, when you breakthrough to the 7th Rank, the Sacred Legate will provide comprehensive support in weapons and Spirit Furnaces. But be ready, as you will face more trials to expedite your growth. The Sacred Legate hopes that you can raise your abilities quickly, enabling you to better confront powerful enemies.”

Two gold tokens floated out and landed in Dangdang’s and Kongkong’s hands. The tokens looked similar to the one Menglu had used to get them in earlier, except instead of the Priests Temple’s angel logo, these bore the sigil of a knight’s shield and sword.

“These are the Sacred Legate Tokens. Holding them is like having the Sacred Legate beside you. You can mobilize resources for support in any location and any branch temple, and you can use these to come here anytime. However, unless there’s a threat to life or a significant event, use it as sparingly as possible. The Sacred Legate Token is of great importance. If you misuse it or commit an error, the Sacred Legate will reclaim it.”
