……

Just then, two strong, clear voices rang out from the city tower:

"Reporting to the Commander! The Order of the Radiant Angels is ready to depart!"

"Report! Dark Assassin is fully prepared!"

A glint flashed in the Holy Spirit's eyes, and he immediately gave a deep order to the general beside him: "You take command and organize the covering fire!"

"The commander-in-chief is going to personally lead the charge?" The general's voice was filled with obvious shock.

The Holy Spirit's gaze was piercing: "If the commander-in-chief does not dare to lead from the front, how can he inspire his soldiers to fight bravely against the enemy?"

"Lan Yanyu!" he suddenly raised his voice.

Lan Yanyu stepped forward quickly: "Your subordinate obeys." A hint of worry flashed in her eyes.

"After I lead my troops into battle, the mage corps will provide full cover for the flanks, without conserving their spiritual energy. The magic crystal cannons will be responsible for aerial defense, and at the same time, we will immediately contact Brother Gao and the others to prepare for their support."

"Yes, ma'am!" Lan Yanyu replied crisply and decisively.

Only then did the Holy Spirit turn his gaze to the moonlight standing quietly to the side: "Come with me."

Moonlight remained silent, following the steps of the Holy Spirit's Heart.

The two arrived at the open space below the city gate, where the Radiant Angel Knights and the Dark Night Assassins had already formed their ranks in the darkness.

Holy Spirit Heart, accompanied by moonlight, walked to the front of the formation, suddenly raised his hand, and a dazzling golden light shot into the sky, tearing through the dark night.

In an instant, all noise vanished. Hundreds of eyes focused like arrows on the Holy Spirit.

"Radiant Angels! Warriors of the Dark Night's Thorn!" The voice of the Holy Spirit echoed across the open ground, "For a thousand years, Exorcism Pass has never fallen! Tonight, we will once again send the demons utterly defeated!"

"I, the commander, will personally pave the way for you, and take the enemy's head!"

Long~Long~Long~
Three metallic clangs rang out, but no one spoke; they were all striking their thick armor with their heavy swords.

The Holy Spirit suddenly turned around and examined the moonlight for the first time:
"I heard you performed exceptionally well in defending the city today, and even won the individual competition. Do you dare to follow me into battle and slay the demonic invaders?"

Lan Yanyu had just returned from Cai'er's place and told her that her daughter had actually slept in the same bed with the leader of the No. 1 Demon Hunter Squad.

This ignited a fire of anger in his heart, and considering that the two of them would be sleeping together again after the battle, he immediately summoned Moonbeam.

"Is the Commander-in-Chief sure you want to take me out of the city to fight the demons?" Moonbeam asked calmly, his gaze fixed on Holy Spirit Heart.

Holy Spirit's brow suddenly furrowed.

Not right.

The young man's eyes showed no fear whatsoever; instead, they subtly revealed a hint of amusement.

"My word is my bond!" Holy Spirit's voice suddenly rose, "Unless you are afraid and dare not follow me into battle!"

Yuehui calmly gave a standard military salute: "The Commander-in-Chief has given the order, which I will obey."

"Do you have a mount?" Holy Spirit's eyes shone brightly.

"No," Yuehui answered crisply.

But in my heart I already knew—

The chief of staff summoned him to battle on a whim, without even knowing anything about his profession.

“Then let’s ride with the first squad of Radiant Angels.” Holy Spirit Heart raised his hand to signal the leading knight.

"Yes, sir," Moonlight replied in a deep voice.

...

The moment Moonbeam charged out of the city gate with the Knights of Light and the Assassin of Night.

A dazzling light suddenly burst forth from the exorcism gate.

A thousand beams of magical light poured down like a torrential rain, accompanied by the deafening roar of the magic crystal cannons.

The demons outside the city were instantly blasted to pieces.

Moonlight stood steadily on the back of the first squad leader's mount, and the Thunder Sword at his waist was instantly drawn.

Lightning crackled all around him, and electric snakes gathered at the edge of the sword.

"Thunder Seal - Wrathful Strike!"

A thick bolt of lightning shot from the sword tip, instantly piercing through the demon in front. The Holy Spirit Heart, kneeling atop the second squad's mount, suddenly narrowed his eyes.

(A mage? And a lightning mage I've never seen before!)

He suddenly remembered Yuehui's meaningful question before he set off.

(That brat, it's one thing for a mage not to wear robes, but why is he using a knight's longsword as a staff!)

The Holy Spirit gritted his teeth in secret.

Sending a mage into battle alongside him would indeed be a dereliction of duty on his part as commander-in-chief.

Suddenly, the demon formation ahead stirred. A golden-patterned twin-bladed demon, over five meters long, blocked the path of the charging column.

Just as the Holy Spirit was about to intervene and resolve this obstacle, his heart suddenly skipped a beat—

Suddenly, a pair of thunderous wings with a wingspan of three meters unfolded behind Yuehui!

"Sixth rank?! How is that possible!" Holy Spirit Heart exclaimed in shock.

To his even greater shock, Moonbeam, wielding the Thunder Sword, unleashed a crescent-shaped sword aura that instantly cleaved the Golden-Patterned Twin-Blade Demon in two.

In those fluid and graceful movements, Moonbeam didn't forget to precisely select the magic crystal and store it in her Forget-Me-Not Ring.

The Holy Spirit's lips twitched:
(Is this kid a warrior or a mage?!)
(No, such a young sixth-tier genius cannot be allowed to perish here!)
He immediately ordered the Radiant Knights to turn back. The original plan for the surprise attack was to blunt the demons' morale and even penetrate their lines.

But upon discovering Moonshine's talent, Holy Spirit Heart immediately changed his mind.

Moonlight was caught up in the heat of battle when he heard the order to retreat, and he was secretly annoyed.

(I wish I hadn't exposed myself so early)
Just then, on their way back, three giant beams of light, each over thirty meters in diameter, shot into the sky, standing out prominently against the night.

At the center is a blazing red pillar of light, flanked by deep black and sharp cyan.

It is faintly visible that within each beam of light stands a massive solid pillar, inscribed with countless mysterious and exquisite patterns.

"It's actually the Demon God Pillar!"
The Holy Spirit's pupils suddenly contracted, and his aura abruptly became ethereal and otherworldly.

In the blink of an eye, he appeared beside Moonlight.

"Moonlight, when you get back, treat Cai'er well. Otherwise, my grandfather will never forgive you," Holy Spirit said in a deep voice.

Moonlight: ? ? ?
(Father-in-law, you've set more goals than the old general!)
"Commander-in-Chief, don't be in such a hurry to make your final arrangements. It's just a demon god, it's not like we haven't seen one before," Yuehui said casually.

Now it was Holy Spirit's turn to be full of question marks.

(This scoundrel who kidnapped his own daughter actually met the Seventy-Two Demon Gods?)
“Have the Radiant Knights speed things up, and I can break through the Demon God's personal guard. As for the Demon God... you can decide what to do next!” Moonbeam said, taking a gold coin from his pocket.

To the astonishment of the Holy Spirit, a cute little elf with wings on its back emerged from Moonlight's chest.

"Little Lei Ji, lend me some spiritual power."

"Ring~!"

Lei Ji nodded vigorously, stood on Yuehui's shoulder, and closed her eyes to concentrate.

In an instant, their spiritual energies resonated, and violent lightning surged around Yuehui.

Holy Spirit's pupils constricted sharply, and finally, he gritted his teeth and shouted, "All troops, listen to my command—charge!"

As the group approached the three demon pillars, the sight before them made everyone gasp in horror.

Beneath the three pillars of light, hundreds of demons stood solemnly.

Although they numbered only three hundred, the oppressive aura they exuded was comparable to that of a thousand troops.

At the center is the fifty-second pillar demon god, Flame Lion Anluoxian, leading a hundred sixth-order flame demon puppets;

On the right is the sixty-first pillar demon god, Winged Bull Mad Demon Saigong, who commands a hundred fifth-tier two-headed demonic vultures;

On the left is the 70th Demon God, Azure Demon Knight, who commands a hundred fifth-tier emerald-green dual-sword demons.

At that moment, lightning suddenly surged around Yuehui, and countless arcs of electricity gathered on his right arm, condensing into a dazzling incandescent light.

A gold coin was tossed high into the air.

"The electric light dancing at my fingertips is my unwavering faith in this life!"

"Super electromagnetic gun!"
