Chapter 783: Exemplar to Look up to (II) (1/2)

Long Haochen’s words shocked many people. It was also their first time in experiencing the chairman’s might. From the beginning to the end, no one cut him off at all.

Everyone thought about what he had said. Even the most stubborn Priest Temple head Ling Xiao changed in expression.

With a flash, Long Haochen returned to his seat, “What I said just then was my opinion. You can discuss and pour your thoughts together now. We will vote in a short while. The discussion will still be hosted by temple head Yang.”

Yang Haohan nodded at Long Haochen first, before speaking sternly, “The chairman’s story has shocked me deeply. Never did we think that there would be such an unknown story behind the chairman’s great strength. The chairman and every single member of the Bright Glimmer of Hope is a hero of the union. We should show our respects to the heroes.” As he said that, he stood up first and performed a standard knight salute to Long Haochen and the Bright Glimmer of Hope.

The other people all stood up and copied Yang Haohan.

Long Haochen stood up with his companions in a hurry to return the gesture, “From the day we became demon hunters, we had already decided to bleed and lay our lives down for the union. Never did we consider dying a natural death, like how Chen Zidian had already expected himself to die in battle. I believe that although these two titled demon hunt squads have been annhiliated, they did not leave with any regrets. They are the true heroes. I think we should have a minute of silence for the Demon God Slayers and Nine Heaven Transcenders.”

Everyone fell quiet. Sorrow welled up in everyone’s heart uncontrollably. However, there was also enthusiasm within this sorrow. Many of them had failed to realise that after listening to Long Haochen’s story, the pressure they originally experienced was replaced by roaring fighting intent. Their fear for the incoming holy war had mostly vanished as well.

The minute ended and Yang Haohan continued the topic of conversation from before.

“Chairman, there’s something that I must ask you to explain. Because the Eternal Heroes have become undead, their character will be influenced to a certain degree. I disagree with you going personally. Just in case there’s danger…”

Long Haochen waved his hand, “There won’t be danger. I’ll go with Cai’er. Cai’er’s Domain of Purification is nemesis of all undead. As a result, I can promise everyone that even if our Eternal Heroes have changed and plan on harming the union, our Bright Glimmer of Hope will personally resolve this issue.”

He was not exaggerating at all. No matter how powerful the Eternal Heroes were, it was impossible for them to match up to the undead army from Haoyue’s realm. Cai’er could control the entire situation there, so let alone just sixty-three Eternal Heroes. If they wanted to rebel, Cai’er’s Flourishing Lotus Flowers would not go easy on them.

Yang Haohan said, “Since that’s the case, let’s discuss this later. Regarding the chairman’s suggestion of announcing the Eternal Heroes, shouldn’t we take the bigger picture into consideration? If we really do go through with it, we need ample preparation for the announcement.”

Long Haochen nodded, “I agree.”

Li Zhengzhi said, “Then why not do this? The chairman’s suggestion is very meaningful, while the chairman’s personal story is highly persuasive as well. We can even learn from the necromancer who had once caused a calamity for us humans, the Holy Necromancer, Slumbering Calamity Elux, much less our Eternal Heroes. If we record the matters of the chairman and then spread it, before spreading the news of the Eternal Heroes, it should be much easier to accept.”

Long Haochen was surprised, while the original Warrior Temple head Qiu Yonghao immediately agreed, “That’s a good idea, temple head Li. The union’s just been founded. If the chairman and his wife become an exemplar for everyone, it will definitely bring great benefits when we face against the demons. It’ll strengthen the chairman’s charisma and unity. The chairman and vice-chairwoman Cai’er will become the foundation of what people can look up to. Let’s do that.”

The temple heads’ eyes all lit up when they heard Qiu Yonghao’s analysis.

Chen Ying’er immediately added, “I agree. The story between the chairman and vice-chairwoman Cai’er is a legend in itself. It should be made public. Moreover, this is for our war against the demons.”

Long Haochen had never thought that trying to rectify the status of the Eternal Heroes would draw him into the matter as well. He wanted to object, but he was drowned out by the approval.

Everyone had finally reached an agreement. Long Haochen would personally ask the Eternal Heroes to fight and they would rectify the Eternal Heroes as well. Of course, before all of this, they would spread the story of Long Haochen and Cai’er.

The Mage Temple head Li Zhengzhi immediately accepted this mission. The special illusion mages of the Mage Temple would make a short film to broadcast. Of course, Long Haochen and Cai’er had to cooperate in the acting as well.

This was only the first meeting. Even more important topics of conversation were presented on the second day of the meetings.
