Chapter 548: Chapter 273: Military Big Shot_2

Supreme Commander Xi Che’s gaze swept over him and he smiled, "Tell me, how did you manage to do it? You should know, you’ve essentially stirred up a hornet’s nest this time. This wraith legion attacked for nearly ten hours before they retreated."

Long Dangdang shivered a bit and replied, "Reporting to the Commander, we had not been at the front lines for long when we accepted a task from the demon hunting team. We then investigated the area where the wraith entities were located. During our first investigation, we discovered an area where many wraith entities were gathered. When we went further to investigate, we were attacked by high-ranking opponents and had to use a Teleportation Scroll to retreat back to our base. After regrouping, we undertook a second investigation and located our target - the valley we previously identified with a large concentration of wraith entities. We cast an 8th Rank Forbidden Spell, Berserk Elementals. I have a spirit furnace that can release delayed spell effects. After casting the forbidden spell into the valley, we once again retreated using a teleportation scroll. We have been resting ever since we returned. Only today when Supervisor Yann informed us did we realize that we had provoked an attack by the wraith legion."

Hearing him casually admit to releasing a Forbidden Spell in the valley where the wraith entities were stationed, the military leaders could not help but admire him. An 8th Rank Forbidden Spell is not something even a 9th Rank powerful expert could release easily. Moreover, they managed to do so without being spotted by the wraith entities, successfully executing the spell. They were well aware of Long Dangdang’s profile, which had already been placed on their table. Not yet seventeen years old, one of the top three in the demon hunting team selection, proficient in both knighthood and magic - he could no longer be assessed by normal standards.

Listening to Long Dangdang’s succinct yet respectable answer, Xi Che gave a slight nod, saying, "Are you aware that the scale and intensity of this attack from the wraith legion is unprecedented, with over ten 9th Rank wraith entities appearing, some of which we had never seen before? After casting the Forbidden Spell, did you notice if you killed any important figures within the wraith legion?"

Long Dangdang shook his head, saying, "Not likely. Our Forbidden Spell is not yet perfect, its power should be limited. Its lethality against 7th Rank and above wraith entities wouldn’t be too strong."

Xi Che gave Long Dangdang a meaningful look, then turned to the others and said, "Everyone, please go and rest. I wish to have a private conversation with this young man."

The military higher-ups paid him their respect before exiting the tent. Before leaving, the young girl gave Long Dangdang a few more curious glances.

"Go on," Xi Che said to the young girl with a playful chide. The girl puckered her lips at him in defiance before finally leaving. From the slight similarities in their faces, it was apparent that this young girl shared a personal connection with the commander.

Xi Che turned to Yann Xingci, "Xingci, you go ahead too."

"Commander, everything Dangdang has done fully complies with the requirements of the demon hunting team task," said Yann Xingci.

Xi Che nodded, "I understand. I’m not blaming him; I just need to understand some things from him alone."

"Alright," Yann Xingci saluted him, gave Long Dangdang a reassuring look, then hurried away.

Watch Yann Xingci leave, Xi Che stood with his hands clasped behind him and asked softly, "Has your dragon mount been exposed?"

"Huh?" Long Dangdang was taken aback but in the next moment, he understood, "You know?"

Xi Che furrowed his brows slightly, "Other than this, I cannot think of a reason why the wraith legion would suddenly become so aggressive, even demanding that we hand you over."

That the Knights Temple’s second-in-command, a true military leader, knew about him having a three-headed golden dragon mount didn’t surprise Long Dangdang at all. After all, the commander was a top-ranking official in the Knights Temple, and the significance of dragon knights to the Knights Temple was obvious.

"In the wake of our encounter with the 9th Rank undead’s attack, Little Eight tore himself out of the contract space to protect me, indeed he was seen." Long Dangdang confessed truthfully. He did not mention the Elemental Vortex Spirit Furnace. He hoped his younger brother would not have to face anything he could bear himself.

"You’re still too young. Isn’t your brother’s teacher Na Ye? You should learn more from him. Having too strong a talent can be dangerous before you have become truly powerful. You’re only sixteen, you have an immeasurable future ahead. Even though your records show that you’re already very mature and steady in your actions, it’s not enough. If you want to become a mainstay in our Knights Temple, you need to be even more steady. Merit is important, but there will be plenty more opportunities for you to make remarkable achievements in the future, do not rush things, understand?"

"Yes. It is my mistake. I have troubled you." Long Dangdang lowered his head and said.

Xi Che shook his head and said, "It’s not so much trouble, we are naturally at war with the Wraith Kingdom. This frantic style of attack is actually beneficial for us, because their loss will be greater. But what I worry about is your safety. Wraith entities can infiltrate anything. You are always at risk of danger before you have enough power to protect yourself. Go back, take your demon hunting team members with you, I will arrange for you to return directly via the teleportation array formation. After returning, stay in the Temple Headquarters, do not leave the Holy City for now. In the Holy City, your safety can be assured. There will be plenty of opportunities for you to work hard, enhance yourself and make great achievements. When you become a real dragon knight or even a God’s Seal knight, you can better confront wraith entities and contribute to humanity."

Long Dangdang had already anticipated this outcome, what else could he say? He could only nod in agreement.

Xi Che’s expression softened a bit, he said, "Speaking of this, I’m also very curious about your dragon mount. An unprecedented three-headed golden dragon, could you let me see it?"

Long Dangdang was startled, but he still nodded and opened his contract space out of thin air.

Golden light flickered, Little Eight’s three heads peeked out one after another, then squeezed out of the contract space. Seeing Long Dangdang, the three large heads immediately nestled against him, full of affection.

Long Dangdang stroked its large head, but Supreme Commander Xi Che’s eyes were already full of amazement. As a dragon knight himself, he was all too familiar with the aura of a giant dragon. He could clearly feel the fluctuation of the dragon tribe bloodline in Little Eight, especially his different attributes. Even more so, the purity and strength of Little Eight’s bloodline. At this moment, he could completely affirm that the giant dragon before him was indeed a true descendant of the Dragon Empress.

A white light door opened silently behind Xi Che. A slender figure emerged from it. She appeared to be in her thirties, clothed in a white long gown. She was tall, her face was beautiful, and there was an indescribable air of elegance about her.

At this time, her beautiful eyes were also full of surprise when she saw Little Eight, "It really is Her Majesty’s bloodline, how is this possible! I had heard that my aunt was pregnant, but it took many years without giving birth. Who would have thought, Her Majesty would actually let him form a pact with a human. This, this shouldn’t be!"

"Nanxun, what’s wrong?" Xi Che’s voice became even more gentle when he saw this woman.

Wey Nanxun shook her head and said, "You don’t understand, the golden dragon bloodline is noble, but it is extremely difficult to produce offspring. Each generation of golden dragons almost always has a single descendant, which means this little one should be the future heir to the Dragon Emperor, our dragon tribe’s leader. How could he easily form a pact with a human? And, and this... is this a blood pact?" her eyes widened as she pronounced the last two words. When she looked at Long Dangdang, her eyes clearly held a mixture of fierceness and disbelief.

Little Eight seemed to feel Long Dangdang was threatened, he immediately raised his three large heads, watching Wey Nanxun with a certain vigilance.

Wey Nanxun stepped forward quickly, raised her hand and pointed at Long Dangdang. In an instant, Luminosity descended!
