Chapter 436: Devil Snake Demon God and Forest Boa King (III)

All of a sudden, he sensed the air above his head cool down. The Devil Snake then hastened to concentrate more on his sense of smell, but didn’t find smell of any living creature. In his time of stupor, that ice-cold feeling already struck through its bone.

A light pierced through him, while another glint of green light penetrated his throat. Not letting out the slightest sound, this Devil Snake was already slowly falling onto a vine the next instant.

The green figure shortly paused, before throwing itself into the thick fog, which became its best cover. Even if there was another Devil Snake only a few dozens meters away, his line of sight would be obstructed, preventing him from finding out about the circumstances here.

After no less than ten minutes passed, the Devil Snakes in charge for scouting were thoroughly eradicated. When that green figure reappeared by Long Haochen’s side, the green light emitted from him just looked somewhat dimmer.

Slowly shutting his eyes, Long Haochen let out a sigh of relief after having gotten exhausted due to the high expenditure of his mental energy.

In his mind, the demon god pillar of the Devil Snake Demon God Andromalius was an immense energy entity. As he calmed himself down, his awareness remained very clear. The reason why he didn’t have the Tenth Holy Guard attack the battling Devil Snakes was to avoid inadvertently warning the other side.

Having them remain unaware of their existence was undoubtedly the best choice.

A moment later, Long Haochen opened his eyes once again, not pondering over the matter of treasure anymore, but on how they could achieve their ultimate objective.

“Ying’er, I am sending you back. Tell everyone about the situation here, and have them prepare for a fight. Since I am rather good at concealing my aura, I will investigate, and when the best opportunity appears, we will then act.”

The Snake Demon God Andromalius was leading the Snake Demon army to wage war against the magical beasts living in the swamps, and to the 64th commander grade Demon Hunt Squad, this was an incredibly good opportunity! Although Long Haochen was cautious, if he were to let go of such a good opportunity, he wouldn’t be qualified to be a Demon Hunt Squad captain.

The two holy guards vanished in the Eternal Melody by Long Haochen’s orders, to recuperate. Chen Ying’er and McDull were sent back to the Tower of Eternity, and then, Long Haochen wasn’t in a great hurry, taking time in recovering, to recuperate from his consumption of mental power, before getting to the act. Erasing the fluctuations of spiritual energy coming out from him, he advanced towards the edge of the battlefield.

Right now, he looked just like a tiger in ambush: reserved in appearance, but ready to break out with explosive force at anytime.

His hatred towards the demons was shown in his cold expression. On the verge of facing one of the seventy-two demon gods, his mind was now filled with images of the scene of Cai’er and himself surrounded by the Demon Hunter Removers.

Unconsciously pursing up his lips, a hard to describe emotion filled him, spreading inside him. Even if the Aria of the Goddess of Light was not in his grasp, his body still let out a dense sword intent. Even Long Haochen himself was not in complete control of this sword intent.

Fortunately, although intense, this sword intent was only pulsing around his body, and didn’t scatter too far.

Shutting his eyes, Long Haochen refrained himself, for fear that the instant he would see the Devil Snake Demon God, he wouldn’t be able to contain his fighting spirit and killing intent would radiate from him.

Even he hadn’t thought that encountering demon powerhouses again would him affect so greatly.

In truth, this state was actually due to the fact he had been suppressing his feelings for so long. After Cai’er’s loss of memories, Long Haochen became filled with an anxiety that one might well imagine. The one who best understood his pain was only himself. To take good care of Cai’er, he could only conceal this pain in his heart, keeping his tears inside him. Forcing a smile on his face to comfort Cai’er, he kept trying to help her recover her memories.

As days passed, Cai’er’s state stabilized, but the pain filling Long Haochen was only growing deeper day by day. That was because he hoped to reunite with the Cai’er he shared deep love with. If he had been more resolute at that time, forcefully stopping Tian Qing from starting this battle, perhaps nothing of that would have happened. But how could others know about the self-blaming filling his heart at that time?

At this moment, although the one he was about to face was not the one responsible for Cai’er’s loss of memories, it was still another powerful demon foe. The feelings suppressed in his heart immediately caused him to enter a berserk state. As the days had gone by, his comprehension regarding sword intent had gradually deepened, his emotions and his sword intent merging into one, giving rise to this state.

Without a doubt, Long Haochen in this state was undoubtedly fearful, or rather terrifying. But similarly, if he were to not get a valid target to vent out in this state, the blow inflicted to his mind would be enormous. This was unrelated to strength, stemming directly from his psyche.

Quietly approaching the battlefield, Long Haochen concealed himself in the poisonous fog. His self control was in the end extremely strong, and after the short time of recovery he had, he managed to barely control his own surges of emotions.
