Chapter 471: Mother (III)
Bai Yue lightly shook his head, “This was just one of the reasons. More importantly, your father didn’t want the small you to worry about him. We left because he had to fight the Seventh Demon God Amun. That’s the reason why we separated. Soon after we returned to the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass, your father had a decisive battle against Amun.”
“What?” Long Haochen was astonished. Until this moment, he didn’t know that his father actually had such reasons for leaving at that time. For a moment, he couldn’t help but feel bewildered.
Yang Haohan, who arrived at his side at some point, raised his hand, pouring a gentle breeze of holy spiritual energy in him, easing Long Haochen’s mind with its warmth.
“Kid, calm down. With your father’s strength, his odds of victory against Amun are at least of sixty percent. Although he has yet to come back from that fight, the demon side didn’t announce Amun’s victory either. This battle only belongs to the two of them.”
“Why hasn’t father come back? Can he be..?” Long Haochen’s head was full of worries.
Yang Haohan shook his head, “Your father is certainly still alive. That’s because as a Divine Knight, if he were to die in battle, his Divine Throne would automatically return to the Alliance. But seeing that his Divine Throne hasn’t come back until now, he is still alive. It’s just that we don’t know where he is. He is certainly busy with important matters, and that’s why he hasn’t come back. Don’t worry too much. We have been sending people in search of him all this time.”
At Yang Haohan’s explanation, Long Haochen finally calmed down. With his intelligence, after calming down, his brain started operating rapidly, asking the question, “Yang Haohan, since my father isn’t back yet, that Amun should be taking part in that holy war, right?”
Yang Haohan nodded, “Among the eight demon gods assigned to our Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass is Amun. With Saminaga, the two of them are commanding the demon armies alongside.”
Long Haochen asked, “Then, could we ask that Amun about the whereabouts of my father?”
Yang Haohan sighed, “ Hardly. Amun is not like the other demon gods. He is known as Berserk Demon God. Among the demons, no one is more fond of fighting than him. Even as the seventh demon god, he doesn’t have subordinates of his race. Some time in the past, the Berserk Demon Clan wanted to enter under his wing, but were forcefully rejected. The reason for that was simply that Berserk Demons are too weak and unfit to be associated to him’. In Amun’s mind, there’s only fighting. He’s also the demon god who slaughtered the most powerhouses of our Alliance. In times of battle, he’s just a madman. But Amun has his good points. All he likes is good battles, and he doesn’t even find it worth to attack ordinary soldiers far weaker than him. All the ones he slaughtered were the most strong powerhouses of our Temple Alliance”
Among your father and Amun, there has already been over four battles, each of which was extremely bitter and none of them managed to finish the opponent. But they also built some friendship. Your father and Amun agreed that until a victor is decided between the two of them, they won’t lightly let themselves get involved in battles. So even if Amun is there, he’s actually mostly here as a deterrence against your father’s existence. In the past the demons under him already launched many probing attacks. Those times, he didn’t appear in any of the battles. From this, it can be seen that your father can’t be in big trouble. Amun is also looking for him.”
“Berserk Demon God, Amun!” Long Haochen’s fists were unconsciously clenched. In his head, the deepest memory was that of Long Xingyu’s summoning the Divine Throne of Doom and Slaughter. The lofty figure of his father was deeply engraved in his mind.
One day, I will also challenge this Berserk Demon God!
Yang Haohan smiled, “Let’s go. I believe that in the future, you will certainly become an even more outstanding Divine Knight than your father. I am full of expectations for the earlier arrival of that day. At that time, maybe you will be the nightmare of these demons. Go then, we have to go to town. In the immediate future, you are going to be pretty busy.”
“Mh?” Long Haochen cast a doubtful glance at Yang Haohan, unsure of what he meant. But he followed him to the city.
Seeing her son’s mood easing down, Bai Yue secretly relaxed. Her face had imperceptibly a better look. Warmly supporting her son by the arm, she came to think, My little Haochen has grown.
While coming to the city, Yang Haohan told Long Haochen, “I got the news about you from Sheng Yue. Although we were originally had great expectations towards you, you gave us one nice surprise after another that were beyond our imagination. Becoming the youngest general grade Demon Hunt Squad ever seen, youngest commander grade Demon Hunt Squad. You are even more outstanding than your father in those days, and by a lot. When the old Qiu from the Warrior Temple told me that you would surely become a Divine Knight before your reached your thirties, I used to believe he was exaggerating, but now, it seems that he was indeed right! Even before you reached eighteen, you already reached the seventh step!”
Long Haochen’s face flushed slightly, “Grandpa Yang, don’t exaggerate. It’s the first time I’m coming to our Knight Temple. I wonder, what have you planned for me next?”
Yang Haohan had a smile on his face, “Are you thinking that we had you come back to hide you in a very secretive place, so that the demons won’t find you?”
