Everyone hesitated, staring at the Divine Seal Knight Long Xingyu lying on the ground, his body blackened by lightning and almost naked.

Lin Jing, who never liked to gossip, exclaimed, "Good heavens!" He patted Bai Ling's shoulder with heartache and sighed from the bottom of his heart, "Child, it's really a shame that you have such an unreliable parent."

Madam Shen also stepped forward, her eyes filled with guilt, and cast a healing spell on Bai Ling, intending to help alleviate her physical pain.

A bewildered Bai Ling looked at everyone's overthinking expressions and sighed inwardly. She wisely refrained from explaining anything further.

Sometimes, an explanation is just a cover-up.

The more you talk, the more mistakes you make.

Seeing Bai Ling standing there silently, passively accepting their care, everyone was even more certain that Long Xingyu was a scumbag whom his family despised in private.

They were both intelligent people, and it wasn't difficult for them to extract key information from the few words exchanged between the father and daughter during their argument.

Moreover, Bai Ling's surname is Bai, not Long, so it's obvious that she took her mother's surname.

As for Long Haochen, whom Bai Ling mentioned...

Everyone guessed that it was a boy that Long Xingyu and his wife had later, and that he was her blood-related younger brother.

After connecting several things together, everyone immediately realized that the Knights' Temple had almost no female knights.

Thus, the Knights' Temple and their top genius Divine Seal Knight, Long Xingyu, were tacitly acknowledged as having a strong preference for sons over daughters, a label they planned to publicize widely upon their return.

Lin Xin groped his way to his father's side, and unusually in front of everyone, he raised his voice, shook his father's hand, and said in a coquettish tone, "Father, Bai Ling saved me before, so why don't you, for my sake, try to snatch her away from Palace Master Shen? Grandpa, isn't he...?"

Madam Shen covered her mouth and chuckled.

Secretly, she pinched her old man to prevent Chairman Lin from being too embarrassed to try and recruit Bai Ling into the Magic Association so she could go to the Magic Temple to learn magic.

Lin Jing silenced his son's incessant chatter with a silencing spell. He narrowed his upturned fox-like eyes and asked Bai Ling, "Miss Bai Ling, did you save my son's life before?"

Bai Ling nodded and recounted in detail how Lin Xin sat on the berserk first-tier unicorn.

"Fine! Do you even know that's the rose unicorn I was preparing to give to the Knights' Temple? It's only for carrying women. Are you a woman? And you dare to ride on it!"

Lin Jing abandoned his previous gentle and refined attitude, grabbed Lin Xin's flowing long hair with one hand, and roared loudly.

Lin Xin was in so much pain that tears were about to come out. He clasped his hands together, making a gesture of begging for mercy.

Lin Jing was not about to let Lin Xin off easily.

He was breathing heavily when he raised his hand and took out a bottle of medicine, spiritual energy gathering in his palm.

A water dragon, over a meter tall, coiled lifelike above Lin Xin's head.

"rush!"

At Lin Jing's command, Shui Long, carrying the hair-bleaching liquid, slapped it hard onto Lin Xin's long black hair.

Before long, Lin Xin's original hair color became visible.

Green makes skin appear whiter than black.

Bai Ling, who was watching the scene unfold, nodded and silently offered her opinion.

Perhaps, she could dye Long Haochen's hair like this in the future, or give her handsome younger brother a new style of clothes.

Long Haochen always wears knight outfits and is unwilling to buy some casual clothes or dress himself up properly; it's really unacceptable.

Well……

After thinking about it, Bai Ling decided to just buy matching couple items later.

Anyway, Cherrie must like wearing matching couple outfits with Long Haochen, right?

Bai Ling, the top expert in knack for knacks, kept this little incident in mind.

Having resolved the issue of the unruly child at home, Lin Jing was satisfied and released the child, lifting the silencing spell.

Immediately afterwards, he coughed and formally invited Bai Ling to join the Magic Temple and become a member of the Magic Temple.

Please note that the councilors of the Magic Temple here refer to those directly managed by the headquarters.

All councilors invited to join the Magic Temple, regardless of when they joined or how much spiritual power they possess, are eligible.

As long as they wear the emblem of the main temple, they should enjoy the treatment of a deputy temple master, no matter which branch temple of the magic temple below the super-large city they go to.

If Bai Ling joins the Temple, and later wants to wear the Temple's emblem back to the Moonlit City branch of the Magic Temple...

Even Shen Xiao, the temple master who had retired from the Demon Hunter Group, had to give her some face.

This shows that Lin Jing is a girl who genuinely wants to be recognized by the Demon Palace, and she should reconsider his invitation.

When Shen Xiao, Madam Shen, and even Lin Xin all thought that Bai Ling was going to accept Lin Jing's invitation to join the Holy Temple, the black-haired, blue-eyed girl decisively shook her head.

"Why!"

Lin Jing blurted out, completely unprepared for Bai Ling to refuse his invitation.

In an instant, this prodigy from the Magic Temple subconsciously focused his gaze on Shen Xiao, the head of the Magic Branch Hall.

Lin Jing couldn't help but wonder what kind of bewitching drug Shen Xiao had given Bai Ling that made her reject him.

"It has nothing to do with Palace Master Shen. It's because I plan to pursue dual cultivation or even triple cultivation in the future, so please forgive me for not being able to join the Magic Temple."

"Three cultivations?"

Upon hearing this, Madam Shen's expression immediately changed. She said anxiously, "Child, who told you that? I'll beat him up for you!"

Bai Ling said sincerely, "Madam Shen, there's no one else. I want to study in the Magic Temple for a while, then go to the Priest Temple, and finally to the Soul Temple. I think these three temples are more suitable for my diverse understanding of the identity of a professional, and for me to learn about the history and future development of different temples."

"Nonsense, this is utter nonsense!"

Lin Jing put his hands behind his back, paced back and forth, and shook his head as he said, "Since ancient times, only those madmen in the Knights' Temple have discovered that the skills of the Punisher Knight and the Guardian Knight can be learned from each other, allowing the knights in the Temple to practice dual cultivation."

“Child, Chairman Lin is right. I have been fighting on the battlefield of the Demon Clan for more than ten years, if not twenty. During this time, I have never heard of such an absurd cultivation method.”

Shen Xiao stroked his beard with a worried expression. He was very concerned that Bai Ling would remain stubborn and waste her hard-won elemental talent.

Looking across the entire Holy Demon Continent, there isn't a single member of a demon hunter group who can wield elemental magic, act as a priest, and summon magical beasts to fight enemies.

If someone could actually do that, the best class composition for the Demon Hunter would have already been announced by the six temples and tested on the battlefield.

Bai Ling felt like a fishbone stuck in her throat.

She knew these people wouldn't believe the truth.

For the average person, let alone practicing three different skills, practicing two completely different temple skills would waste most of their life.

But she's different!

By awakening the bloodline of her maternal grandfather, the Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu, a dragon of the heavens, Bai Ling unexpectedly regained and possessed her maternal grandmother Bai Lingxuan's talent for light during the process of increasing the concentration of dragon blood.

You should know that her maternal grandmother was a rare Holy Maiden of Light in the priest's temple, a genius chosen from among thousands!

Bai Ling, who inherited two top talents from the Holy Demon Continent, could easily master all six essential skills of the Holy Temples, let alone cultivate three different skills, in just a few years or decades.

After much deliberation, Bai Ling, to be on the safe side, replied without hesitation, "What if I can prove it?"

"impossible!"
